ON BOARD PRESIDENT TAFTS
TRAIN. NEWARK, N. J . AprU !.-On
his way north to carry the tlgM Into
Massachusetts, rree.clent Tali laat nigiit
mad public a latter from Robert T.
Lincoln, sno of President Lincoln. In
al.ih Colonel Theodore RuO rvelt la
enuclaad and condemned for what Mr.
Lincoln dsclarsa la preverslon of th
truth.
"My personal feelings." ths latter read,
"are unimportant, but I am not only
Impatient but Indignant that President
Llnoola'e words and plain views should
be perverted and misapplied before trust
ing People Into support of doctrines which
I believe he would abhor, living."
Mr. Lincoln's letter was written, he
says, in s newer to a request for an opin
ion of "repeated assertions by Mr. Roose
velt that his attitude on certain radical
doctrines la supported by ths recorded
views" of the martyred president.
The letter In pert follows:
"The government under which my
father lived was, as It Is now, a republic,
or representative democracy checked by
the constitution which can be chanced
by ths people, but only when acting by
methods which compel deliberation and
exclude so far a is possible the effect
of passionate and shortsighted Impulse.
A government In which the checks of an
established constitution are actually or
practically omitted one In which the peo
ple act In a mass directly an all questions
and sot through their chosen representa
tives is an unchecked democracy, a form
of government so full of danger as shown
by history, that It has oeased to exist
In communities small and ooltoentrated
as to space. A New England town meet
ing nuty be good, but such a government
In a large city or state would be chaos.
Means Revolatloa.
"As I understand It, the essence of
Mr. Roosevelt's proposals Is that ws
hall adopt the latter form of govern
ment In place of the existing form. This
n simple words la a proposed revolu
lon. peaceful perhaps, but a revolution,
in support of these revolutionary doc
trines, which. If successful, would abolish
ths form and spirit of our existing gov
ernment and sorely, I think, lesd to
attempted dictatorship, resort is had to
what is claimed to be the words and
teachings of President Lincoln.
"President Lincoln wrote many letters,
mads many public addresses and waa the
author of many documents. I do not
know of ths existence In any of them
of a word of censure or of complaint
of our government or of the methods
by which it waa carried on. He was
sincerely and faithfully obedient to our
constitution. In the single act for which
ha is most remembered the Issuance of
ths emancipation proclamation, be ex
pressly supported It aa an act warranted
by ths constitution upon military
Fallhfal to Coaatllatloa,
"On ons publio occasion be described
the effect of the counting of slaves in
congressional and electoral representa
tion. In comment lis said:
" "Now all this la manifestly unfair;
yet I do not mention It to complain of
It la tba constitution and I do not for
that causa, or any other causa, propose
to destroy, or altar or disregard the
constitution. I stand to It fairly, fully
and firmly.'
"Ha hated slavery, but his reverence
for the constitution and law waa such
that Its said publicly again and again.
If a member of congress ha would faith
fully support a fugitive sieve law.
"His attitude toward the Drad-Soott
decision is urged as In support of the
pernicious project for the recall by popu
lar vote of Judges and of Judicial de
cisions. Laval te Judiciary.
"Hs thought It an erroneous decision,
but his chief point In reference to it was
not Its error, but that It Indicated a
schema, and waa a part of It, for the
nationalisation of nemen slavery. He
never suggested a change In our govern
ment under which ths Judges who mads
It should be recalled, but said that he
would resist It politically by voting, if
In his power, for an act prohibiting
slavery In United States territory and
than endeavor to have ths act sustained
In a new proceeding by the same court
reversing itself.
"Is then to be found hers, or any
where else, support for a project to
abolish the essential elements or any ele
ments of our constitution? And yet he
is cited In support of such action.
The oettyebarer "Prayer."
"He loved the government under which
be lived and when at Gettysburg hs
prayed (If I may use that word) that a
government of the people, by the people,
and for the people may not perish from
the earth. He meant aad could only
mean that gov srn meat under which he
lived, a representative govs, lent of
balanced executive, legislative and Ju
dicial parts and sot aomethlng entirely
different an unchecked democracy.
"These often quoted words of President
Lincoln are sow deliberately altered and
arguments founded oa their altered
form.
"I may 1st permitted to nay that I do
not think the public wishes the Gettys
burg speech to be rewritten aad its
words changed by any one, however dis
tinguished, for any purpose, least of all
In order to support a proposition that
President Lincoln could not possibly have
had In mind."

"Christ Is oomlng to earth again aa He
did two years ago," according to D. 8
M. Unger of Chicago, who lectured for
the Theosophlcal society of Omaha last
evening In the Omaha School of Music
at Eighteenth and Farnam streets.
"The world Is calling for a religious
teacher that will sound out a new note of
life," said Mr. Unger. "Science, art, lit
erature, music, capital, labor and all
economio questions are waiting for a so
lution of their problems and history has
taught us that whsn a great teacher Is
needed he Is sent.
"In Egyptian history you may read of
the great teacher called Hermes who
gave to the people of the second sub-raos
their policy of government and religion.
The great teacher of the third subrace
was Zoroaster, who gave to the Persians
a religion of singular purity. Later Or
pheus cams to the Greeks and taught
them the law and beauty of life. Five
hundred years before Christ another
great teacher came, and this time to the
Hindus, Oautama Buddha. At the birth
of the fifth sub-race, the Teutonic the
teacher waa the one that wa know of aa
the Christ."
The "Great White Brotherhood.
Mr. linger spoke of a "Great Whits
Brotherhood." composed of men who
have reached the highest development
of occult powers, and who Uvs In such
places as Thibet and Egypt, that havs
sent out the word tba Christ is really
to revisit the world; that a new race is
to be born, spoken of by theosophlsta aa
the sixth sub-race.
In looking over the different tub-races
h World-Teacher came," declared the
speaker, "and according to the needs of
each sub-race shaped and moulded the
different Ideals for their own special aad
peculiar evolution.
"By the testimony of ths ethnologists,
a new type of sub-race la now beginning
to arias. What Is the Inevitable corol
lary T Shall the World-Teacher refuse to
come aa Ha cams la every similar bv
tana? No.
"The new note must soon be sounded
for humanity, and the Christ will sound
It, and with It a new religion will be
born that will unite all religions. Theos
ophlsts every wnsre are endeavoring to
prepare the world for His coming, and
thus avoid history repeating Itself by the
asms sad tragedy of the cross.
"His creed will be brotherhood of re
ligion brotherhood of man. Ha will tall

and the wise their responsibility to the
Ignorant; teach such virtues aa oo-o Dera
