INCOLN’S Birthday Is al
ways observed by congress.
Usually the reading of
Lincoln's Gettysburg Ad
dress in both the senate
and the house is a part
of the proceedings. Last
year, for instance. Senator
Keyes of New Hampshire
read the Gettysburg Ad
dress from one of the two
existing copies, written
throughout In Lincoln's own hnnd. Al
su several addresses are usually made
by members. So in one way <?r an
other considerable Lincoln matter' of
more or less value gets Into the Con
gressional Record. The following are
excerpts from an address by J. G.
Monahan, a representative in the Six
ty-sixth congress, from Wisconsin :
Wherein, then, did Lincoln's great
ness lie?
A brief review of the man and his
work may aid in answering this ques
tion. Lincoln was an intense student,
not only in books but of men and con
ditions, and as day by day he ab
sorbed knowledge, which his great
memory retained, he became in time
a very learned man. though never a
scholarly one.
He was always true to his higher
self and courageously stood for what
he believed to be right. There was
nothing of the trimmer or demagogue
in his makeup.
He was honest with his fellow men.
true to his friends, and ingratitude
had no part in his mental makeup,
hence when he made friends he always
kept them, and because of his honesty
the people trusted him.
He acted upon judgment, not Im
pulse. and the hysterical and ultra
never appealed to him. During the
Civil war often his most bitter as
sailants were not the men In anus
against the government, not even the
“copperhead" element in the North,
but che abolition extremists. His pa
tience was as great as his judgment
was sound, and Lincoln the man al
ways waited for the place and the
hour. He was a genius of common
sense; his judgment of men was mar
velous. and his trained mind went
straight to the heart of all questions,
great or small, as from day to day
he grandly arose to meet new condl-’
tions and unexpected obstacles. These
are some of the reasons why Lincoln
was superlatively great during the
war and was able to accomplish all
that was done.
liecause of his honesty the people
trusted him: because of loyalty to
friends and principles they loved him;
gud because of his judgment, tact, and
pnHence they sustained him.
Historic k?’' waited 4.000 years for
the coming of Lincoln. Such a char
acter never lived before, and the
world may never see his like again.
He was created for a purpose; he was
a man with a mission: and, with his
FORT HAMILTON
When British troops forced a land
ing the first ithots by an outpost of
Colonial troops were fired from the
spot which Inter became Fort Hamil
ton. Then It was known ns Denyse’s
Ferry. After the disastrous battle of
Long island In 1770. n fort was built.
Efforts to find the cornerstone laid In
1825 were not successful. “Stonewall"
Jackson was baptized nt the little
church, now St. John’s, and one of the
work done, his mission accomplished,
he was by a loving Father kissed from
scenes of bloodshed and strife to
eternal rest and happiness. May we
not believe that a fond mother was
waiting to wipe the stamp of melan
choly from his tired face, and that to
day a happy and reunited family are
smiling somewhere among the stars, i
His life will ever be an inspire- |
tion for better deeds, higher aspira
tions and loftier purposes.
None can read of his life and works
without being made a better man or
woman. The pathetic story of his
early life and constant struggles with
poverty and destitution will fill the
heart of man with deeper sympathy
for* the poor rfnd needy. His success
ful struggles under constant adversity
to better his condition will be a beacon
light that will guide many a storm
buffeted boy or girl into the harbor of
success. His loyalty to friends and
principle, his rugged honesty, and the
sweetness of a private life as pure as
an angel’s dreath will make for purer
homes, better citizenship, warmer and
more lasting friendships until time
shall be no more, while his unselfish
patriotism and devotion to his country
and humanity will forever stand as a
guide for future generations.
Had the nation in 1861 been guided
by the voice and wisdom of Lincoln,
emancipation would have come with
out pecuniary loss to the slaveholder
nor would the country have been torn
by the horrors of civil war.
Had Lincoln been permitted to live,
I believe there would have been no
carpet-bag government of the South
[applause], and many of the so-called
reconstruction laws would never have
been placed upon our statute books.
In his death the North lost Its safest
counselor, the South its best and tru
est friend. [Applause.]
Tn tills hour when hysteria and
emotionalism are attempting to de
throne judgment and reason and
plunge the race Into chaos and ruin,
could Lincoln act and speak he would
say:
“The pages of American history are
resplendent with the names and rec
ords of great and honest men. Among
whom we can point to a Washington,
a Jefferson, a Jackson, a Webster, a
Douglas, a Tilden, a Blaine, a Thur
man., and a McKinley.”
Each of these men In his day and
generation fought the good fight, kept
the faith, and finished the course; and.
because judgment, not hysteria, was '
the gulldlng star of each, they lived
respected, died regretted, and the
fruits of their labors have come as i. '
heritage to us. [Applause.]
Take men of this class as a guide
for yourself and children, rather than
these modern political Jeremiahs,
swashbucklers, and civilization de
stroyers, who today are bounding from
one platform to another, preaching
the doctrine of class hatred, suspicion,
historic landmarks in the city, when
he was stationed at the fort In 1849.
Capt. Roliert E. Lee, later the noted I
Confederate army general, was for
years In command of the post and was
a vestryman of the church. The
batteries have been manned for the <
last half century by officers who have ;
won fame in a hundred fields in de
fense of their country.
■— " <
Scrambled Metaphors.
A political speaker said that “the i
present government has sown a bar- i
doubt, and disaster, and raising new
political issues every day. [Applause.]
Have faith in your fellow man and
keep faith with him. [Applause.] The
destiny of the race leads ever onward
and upward ; and, from the beginning
of history, it has grandly kept step to
the music of its mission.
i There are more honest men In the
! world today than there were yester
-1 day. There will be more tomorrow
than there are today. [Applause.]
He would ask you to leave the sensa
tional press to be consumed in the
fires of hatred and passion their hys
teria has lighted, the Bolshevist to
suffocate and decay in the filth of his
own making, and the demagogue and
agitator to gnaw at the fleshless bones
of monsters their wicked fancies or
diseased imaginations have created.
He would point to the past and Its
lessons where judgment has always
finally prevailed and truth ever tri
umphed ; and then he would point to
the future where the beacon light of
hope eternally shines, and in the name
of Justice. Honesty, Progress, and
Liberty bld us look up and march on.
He would urge that equity and fair
ness be made the controlling forces
to guide the race and that no class
should be permitted to harass or
destroy the commercial prosperity or
social life of 100.000,000 of people who
are outside the ranks of greedy capi
tal and organized labor. [Applause.]
He would say that the Ship of State
must be manned by crews who are
loyal to the organic laws and govern
ment founded and transmitted by the
mighty Washington; that she must be
kept away from the rocks that wreck
and waves that overwhelm.
He would command that she Imme
diately leave the slough of unrest fed
by the poisonous waters of greed,
graft, and isms and once again sail
out Into the boundless bounding ocean
of Americanism, and as the tides of
justice once again clasp her keel and
the breezes of progress fill her sails
as she slowly moves out to sen to con
tinue her journey to her final port—
Destiny, may we not believe that In
words of love, admonition, and hope ns
a parting bon voyage and God bless
you. he would say:
Fear not each sudden sound and shock,
’TIs of the wave and not the rock; *
’Tls but the flapping of the sail.
And not a rent made by the gale!
In spite of rock and tempests' roar.
In spite of false lights on the shore,
Ball on. nor fear to breast the sear
Our hearts, our hopes, are all with thee.
Our hearts, our hopes, our prayers, our
tears.
Our faith triumphant o’er our fears.
Are all with thee: are all with thee!
Mr. Speaker, this Nation will never
die nor the sun of Americanism grow
dim so long as our people cherish the
name and are guided by the teachings
and example of the sweetest, greatest,
grandest character In human history—
Abraham Lincoln. [Applause.]
vest which Is coming home to roost.”
Another said that “the floodgates of
irrellglon and Intemperance are stp’k
ing through the land arm In arm.” A
third that “he (Mr. Balfour) Is a mere
figurehead with his hnnd on the rud
der.” But to Bishop Knox we must
award the prize. He said that Mr.
McKenna’s sword was an “overloaded
pistol which, being hung up In a tight
corner lest it should burst, pretended
to be dead until It got up and trotted
home on the friendly back of the bish
op of St Asaph.”—-Boston Transcript. |
