foreseeing man." In 1861 the nation
could not have been led by the great
est lawyer, military genius, orator or
poet. II Lincoln had been all of these
and nothing more he must have failed.
Hating slavery he dared not strike 1t;
the North was not ready. Hating war
he dared to make 1t, yet had to make
it gently-often a fatal thing and al
most fatal then; his task was to hold
the North and the border states with
one hand and strike or beckon the
South with the other-he hardly knew
which to do and first and last did
both. He had to find leaders for the
armies, to keep Europe off the North's
back, to placate and disarm powerful
foes in his own party, to fight battles
when victory was almost as terrible
as defeat in this war Of brothers, to
shed civil blood and yet preserve the
nation and to lead at last the public
opinion of the North to the inevitable
necessity Of emancipation. "This pa
| tient, kindly, wise, foreseeing man"
accomplished the task, and history's
tribute to him must be the recognition
that a Seward, a Chase, Stanton, a
Grant could not have done 1t. Lin
coin led the North slowly because the
North would be led no other way. A
swifter military success might have
been obtained by a Napoleon, but q
military success achieved before the
North had learned that the war could
end only in the destruction Of it
cause would not have preserved the
Union.

insist that the qualities that made,
Abraham Lincoln what he was are suf-
fcient to preserve him. as Edwin NJ.
Stanton said, for the ages.
The reason why Lincoln's greatness
lends itself to legend are plain enough.
AS a national figure he flashed upon
the rapidly turning pages Of history
for but a moment, and was gone be-
fore his countrymen came to know
him. His entire career, it may be
said, covered only four years, some
thing perhaps unprecedented In the
annals of the great. Before he be-
came President he was a country law
yer, almost unknown outside OF ILL
nois. In an instant he burst upon the
national horizon like meteor, light
ing up the whole sky, and while the
eyes Of millions were yet upon him
trying to make out this sudden por-
tent. he vanished leaving his country
men and the world, with a question
unanswered. The attempts to an
swer it have had natural result: the
Illinois circuit-riding lawyer has be-
come the legal peer Of Coke and Mans
field and Marshall; the President who
had never seen an army until he was
afty-two years old has become mil

leader Of a nation crying out In Its

things, but not enough in any one OF
them to account for Lincoln; there
have been greater American lawyers

knew and could expound the law, but
this was perhaps more successfully

REAL GREATNESS
BEYOND LEGEND
History Will Know Lincoln
as ''Patient, Kindly, Wise,
Foreseeing Man."

Perhaps the one thing to fear for
Lincoln's greatness is the growth of
legend about it. There is no doubt
there Is such an incrustation forming
upon his fame, and If that process Is
active so soon after his death, what
must be It's progress in the centuries
to come? What must his real great
ness suffer from 1t? Not in the inter
est Of history alone, but in that Of
the name and fame Of one Of the
greatest and wisest Of Americans. 1t
ought to be the concern Of those who
are almost his contemporaries to ar
rest this growth, to remove it so far
as it has already obscured the genu-
inc and solid substance beneath and to
