cities and all its communities more
wore like those who escaped out of
Egypt Washington was another Abra

than its pursuits and industries more peculiar ark of the covenant is polit
than Its great men its work and its jca liberty This Ave are to carry as
mission more than Its power In war the chosen people of this age until the
or iim uuuhijuicu in pence more uiucn
more than any of these or a combina
tion of all of them A nation is a
body politic with a soul The great
est thing in it the determining thing
is not visible It is its spirit its gen
ius its life
It seems that no one lias yet com
prehended or stated the American gen
Jus the national soul that
I world is converted to democracy
Yet we are more than a Palestine
having in iis the elements also of a
modern Greece and more especially of
a modern Rome All the stages of the
Roman republic have Ave passed
through Now ivo are at the age of
the Caesars only let us hope that the
later experience and liberty of the
Avorld have given us suIHcient wisdom

democracy the constructive attitude
the individual initiative iiiAcntiveness
energy sanity humor that go to make
up the peculiar type Ave call Ameri

able to phrase this it still has had ex
pression Lincoln incarnated it He
was the AAord American made flesh
A nation is like a man It comes
lias it ever occurred to the people of
this time that a great new civilization
is springing to life in the nations that
fringe the shores of the Pacific and
that Ave hold much the same relation
to this new group of developing states
that ancient Rome held to Avestern Eu
rope The parallel can be carried fur
ther This is but a suggestion of it
There are historic years as Avell as
through the same periods of birth and solar years The first historic year

too often of death But its body seems
more plastic and responsive to its soul
had its springtime in early Greece
Tudea and Rome Its summer came
in the days of Julius and Augustus

and democracy Amerka has brought
this new day till the sunlight of its
intelligence is shining over into all
lands
The constructive attitude is also
ours the spirit of the builders We do
not tear down we erect We are posi
tive full of faith and optimism as the
builders always are Wo have come
to know God as the great builder and
we would be in his Image
James Rissell Lowell spoke of Lin
coln as a new groAvth of this now
soil the first American
Whether or not he was the first he
was at least the most conspicuous
And Iioav fully be Avas a type of the
national life even embodying some of
our faults lie came from the common
people as do Ave AA as eloquent as we
try to be told stories Avhicli has be
come a national habit even played the
great American game of ball The one
place that he did not include our ices
is that he did not indulge in that other
great American game of poker Doug
las says he drank but Douglas is not
the best authority Others deny the
statement If Lincoln drank at all it
was but mildly and the habit was
abandoned in his mature years Nei
ther did he use tobacco In these mat
ters it may be objected that he was
uot the American type but at least he
was our ideal type expressing us at
our best if not at our worst and let
us hope he was the type of our future
man Tobacco Avhisky and poker are
not absolutely essential to a great man
hood Avliile the Lincolnlan qualities
are Perhaps Ave shall slough off some
ephemeral faults but tho great dura
ble elemental traits that he had as a
model for all of us must remain
This genius of Americanism which
Is giving a neAv spirit to other lands
lie came not only to typify but to- pre
serve Paine Franklin Jefferson
Washington and the rest had given it
statement and initial form in tho be
ginning Lincoln Avith Garrison
Grant SeAvard Stanton aud their co
Avorkeis came to give it restatement
and to saAe and enlarge Its form
Lincoln saAV what Ave must ail see If
Ave comprehend Americanism at all
that our nation has brought a nev po
litical gospel which Is to revolutionize
all nations and ultimately make a re
public of the world as a consequence
of this neAv political gospel it likewise
brought a new industrial and social
gospel It is no idle boast to say that
it has become AAorth Avhile living since
America has appeared on the stage
America is not alone responsible for
this any more than Lincoln was re
sponsible for all the happenings of his
era She is only the type and most
conspicuous fact of this new age just
as he A as the type and most conspicu
ous individual in our civil war crisis
and just as he is rapidly becoming the
type and most conspicuous entity of
our nation itself
Lincoln specifically stated that his
mission or rather his purpose was
neither to preserve nor destroy slavery
but to save the Union The Union was
and is the body politic incarnating the
national soul It is the vessel holding
the precious ointment the temple con
taining the holy of holies the form ex
pressing and perpetuating liberty
It Avas not merely the loss of a feAv
states that Lincoln faced aud
It Avas the breaking up of
this body the escape or destruction of
this American genius the change of
our national life To the one Avho saw
Avlfntr blessings American liberty de
mocracy and eonstructiveness would
mean to the future of the entire race
this Avould seem the greatest Avork that
man could perform America avus and
is the key to the Avorlds neAv civiliza
tion the prophet of political equals
all round the earth the forerunuer of
man free intelligent energetic con
fident redeemed and aAvakened man
man the racial man climbing the lad
der toAA ard the type of a Lincoln
It did not happen by aceideut that
the men Avho directed our Revolution
constituted the greatest group seen on
tills planet since the departure of those
surrounding the Xazarene Such a
great inception means a greater mis
sion To measure that mission and its
influence on all men Avill require cen
turies
On this uoav stem of Americanism
this neAv plant of democracy groAA ing
in a fresh soil men of the stamp of
Lincoln AA ere the natural and inevita
ble fruit lie is perhaps the most com
plete example but he is by no means
peculiar nor alone As said in the be
ginning lie is a type Thousands ap
proach him none perhaps reaches him
in all things Studied from every
standpoint he is about the most satis
fying human sample produced not only
by America but uy modern times the
most satisf inj aviic i measured by the
intellect by the Iiearc or by the soul
This is not mere fulsome eulogy It is
the inevitable conclusion that is forced
on any student who goes deeply into
the nature of Abraham Lincoln
Ilappj is the laud that has such a
man for its humanized symbol
That the people felt Mr Lincolns
universal Americanism Avas shoAvn by
the ovenvheiming grief of all sections
at his death
Of the assassination itself and of the
scenes succeeding it it is unnecessary
to speak here All this has become a
part of the folklore of the race At
this length of time hoAvever three
things stand out prominently the sor
roAv of the private soldiers of the ne
groes and of the plain people In
Washington along the line traversed
by the funeral train in its journey to
Springfield and in the shop fields and
churches of the entire north and even
of the south the grief of the average
man AA as such as he shoAved only for
those nearest aud dearest to him It
was the pergonal nature of the be
reavement that AAas its most notable
feature TAvice since Lincolns day
haAe presidents been assassinated
Both of these Avere beloved and their
deaths AAere deeply lamented The
mere trappings and panoply of woe
were as great iu either case as iu bis
But it AAas the poorest and humblest
who Avere touched to the heart at Lin
colns death Indeed from that aspect
nothing like it has been seen in human
history There has been Avoe OA er the
passingof rulers before and since but
the personal actual stupefying grief
of the masses has never been manifeit i
in the same degree 1
