I believe I have no lawful right to d so, and I have no inclination to do so.

No leader was ever more unspar- ingly criticised or more bitterly as- sailed. He was lashed by angry tongues and ridiculed in press and speech until he drank from as bitter a cup as was ever put to human lips, but his faith was, unshaken and his at its height “If I were trying to read,” he sald, “much less answer all tpe attacks made on me. this shop might as well be closed for any other business. I do the best I know how. the very best I can; and I mean to keep on doing it to the end. If the end brings me out all right, what is sald against me will not amount to anything. If the end brings me out all wrong, ten angels swearing I*was right would make no difference.” He knew, of course, before the assassin robbed him of fuller realiza- tion, that the end was bringing him out all right. He knew when swords ere sheathed and guns laid down, that the Union he saved was riveted anew and made forever indissoluble. He knew that in the great crucibi® of fire and blood the dross had been burned from the misdirected patriot- ism of seceding states and the pure gold restored to shining stars in dear Old Glory again. He knew he had freed a race of bondmen and had given to the world the costly proof of the perpetuity of the American Unlon. But I cannot restrain the wish that he might somehow know Unjustifiable Abuse.

His was a leadership for a great crisis, made loftier because of the inherept righteousness of his cause and the sublimity of his own faith. Washington inspired belief in the republic in its heroic begin- Ining. Lincoln proved its quality in the heroic preservation. The old world had wondered about the new- world experiment, amd was quite | ready to proclaim its futility when the civil war was threatening: but Lincoln left the Umion unchallenged for all succeeding time. Not only was our nation given a new birth of free- { dom, but democracy was given a new i sanction by that hand of divinity it- | self which has written the rights of humay Kkind and pointed the way to their “enjoyment. Abraham Lincoln was no superman. Like the great Washington, whos monumental shaft towers nearby as u fit_companion to the memorfal we dedicate today, the two testifving the grateful love of all Americans to founder and savion—like Washing- ton, Lincoln was a very natural hu- man being, with the frailties mixed with the virtues of humanity. There are neither supermen nor demi-gods in the government of kingdoms, em pires or republics. It will be better | for our conception of government and | its institutions if we will undersmndl this fact. It is vastly greater than ifinding the superman if we justify jthe confidence that our instituticns jare capable of bringing into author- tity, in time of stress, men big enough | that it is, is less for Abraham Lin- wisdom of Washington and Jefferson and Hamilton and Franklin was proven when Lincoln, the child of privation, of hardship, of barren en- vironment and meager opportunity, rose to unquestioned leadership when disunion threatened. Lincoln came almost agshumbly as no luxury facilitated or privilege has- tened his development, %u( heghadasn God-given Intellect, a love for work, a willingness to labor and a purpose to_succeed. Biographies differ about his ambi- tlon, but Herndon, who knew him as did no other, says he was greatly ambitious. I can believe that. Am- bition is a commendable attribute, without which no man succeeds. Only inconsiderate ambition imperils. Lincoln was modest, but he was sure of himself, and always greatly simple. Therein was his appeal to the confidence of his country. When he believed he was right a nation be- lieved him to be right, and offered all in his support. Greatest of Pres!
