"-IUUSK ltcMilutlon 021, In- ntroducetl by .".opivscuni tlvo Juuit's Uldeon Mou nhnn of Wlscoiislii, au thorizes thu painting ot a full-length portrait of Abraham Lincoln and the placing of It In the hall of the house of represen tfVj :.V tatives. If Mr. Monahan's resolution goes through, tho portrait painter se lected to make the portrait may well feel proud over his selection. Hut few real nrtlsts will be envious of him. For Abraham Lincoln was so mnny kinds of man that his physical body produced widely dirfering impressions, even upon those accustomed to his presence und familiar with the many Bldcdncss of his character. Moreover, the whole civilized world has now come to revere and love the name of Lincoln and will be satisfied with nothing less than a great achievement by the painter of this portrait. This is tho moral ot the recent con troversy over the statuo of Lincoln erected In London. It will be remem bered that the British government f-ct apart a site related to the house of par liament and Westminster Abbey for this statue. A controversy nrose over tho choice between two statues. The plain truth Is that tfTcre wns a feel ing that one of these statues fell far short of doing Lincoln Justice. The Urltlsh government asked the United States department of state to settle tho controversy. The department of stale referred the question to the com mission of fine nrts. The commission reported to the Urltlsh government thnt the "man and site call for n statue representative of the highest achievement of the American sculptor'' nnd advised Great Krltnln thnt "such Is the statue of Abraham Lincoln exe cuted by Augustus Snint-Gnudcns nnd erected in Lincoln park, Chlcngo." The British government accepted tho re port of the commission. The world does not want rr" hand some Lincoln, but it does Insist upon an Impressive Lincoln nnd will toler ate no suggestion of the grotesque or tho Inefllclent. - Lincoln well knew the wide varia tion of Impressions his appearance nnd actions produced. No doubt he grieved over It. Hut his philosophy roe superior nnd his course wns set according to his declaration: "If I were to try to read, much less answer, all the attacks mndo on me, this shop might ns well bo closed to all other business. I do the very best I know how the very best I can; and I mean to keep on doing so until the end. If the cud brings me out nil right, what, Is said against me won't amount to anything. If tho end brings me out wrong, ten nngels swenr Ing I wns right would make no dif ference." This vnrlnnco of Impression pro duced by Lincoln upon oven the same beholder Is well Illustrated by what Col. Hlchard J. Hrlght, long an olllclal of tho United States senate, once said; "No sculptor has told the story and no artist has recorded tho drama-comedy-tragedy revealed In tho fea tures of that meteor of humanity nnd spirituality which flashed lt bright est Iridescence on the Held of Gettys burg. "I saw Abraham Lincoln when I be lieved him to bo the homeliest crenturu In human form ever permitted to cum ber this earth by walking and talking with tho Btntesmen bf our republic.

"I saw Abraham Lincoln keyed up to righteous wrath on the subject of human slavery and I regarded him as a singularly lofty demon of Im mense proportions, stirring strlfo be tween the sections of our sacred union of confederated states. "I saw Abraham Lincoln adminis tering Justice In military and nnval affairs, when he seemed to be n com posite Incarnation of Julius Cucsar nnd the hero of Trafalgar. "I saw Abraham Lincoln In the White House tenderly offering to n mother mercy for her condemned son, sentenced to denth by court martial; saw him revoking the doctrine of 'an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth,' substituting for It the new command ment 'that ye love one another, and I believed his face to be tho most awe Insplrlngly beautiful cameo ever cut by Almighty God to demonstrate that Omnipotence had 'created man In Ills own Imago, and then sent Ills Son to sny concerning mortal man: 'Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.' ' "Future generations cannot see Abraham Lincoln In marble, In bronze, nor on canvas, for no human being can portray him with chisel nor with brush." s If the time, place nnd occasion of tills proposed portrait of Lincoln wero left to n voto of the American people, what would It choose? There certainly Is a wealth of suggestive occasions. Take, for Instance, the debates of 1858 between Lincoln and Douglas, on which In reality tho fate of the nation largely hung. Vice President Marshall, when a boy of four, heard the Free port debate and was on the platform. Ho says: "While Mr. Lincoln wns talking I snt on the knees of Senator Douglas, nnd he never said one word to me; Just held me. When it came his turn to. talk I sat on the knees of Lincoln. He asked my nnme, my age, where I lived, whether I knew my A, H, C's, whether I hnd n puppy dog or not, and all sorts of questions of u kind to interest n Httlo boy." At the Charleston debate Douglas made the mistake of indirectly accus ing Lincoln of disloyalty by referring to the old story that he hnd voted against appropriations for the soldiers In the war with Mexico. Sitting on the platform as chairman of the Douglas committee was Colonel Orlando H. Flcklln. As soon ns It came his turn to speak Mr. Lincoln grubbed him by the shoulders, dragged him to I he front of the platform und shouted to tho audience: "I nm not going to hurt Flcklln, but I am going to make him tell the truth to this audience about that ten-year-old lie which Judge Douglas has brought ui) again. Flcklln was u mem ber at congress when I wits, ho knows the truth, nnd he must tell U." And Flcklln did. Take tho occasions of Lincoln's fnro well to his Snrlugfleld neighbors when he left for Washington to assumo the presidency. Tnko the occasion of Lincoln's sec ond Inaugural, when ho uttered tho words; "With malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness for The truck driver emitted a startled yelp of warning and threw on his brakes hard.

Ah'll " What sho would do nobody knows. tho right, as God gives us to see the right." Hut In all probability Lincoln nt Gettysburg touched his highest with the written nnd spoken word. IJ was n urcat assemblage of the wisest and best of tho nation. F.dwnrd Kvcrctt. statesman, patriot and orator, was the speaker of the day. lie delivered a long, eloquent nnd notable address. Then President Lincoln arose and said Just 2."i7 words. Those 257 words wero not appre ciated at the time. They were drowned by Everett's Hood of eloquence. Today Everett's oration Is known only to students. Today Lincoln's 2?i7 words have been committed to memory by tho world. Do not think for one minute that Lincoln's Gettysburg address wns n happy Incident. Ills letters, his de batcs, his speeches all his papers proclaim bis mastery of tho written and spoken word. Nevertheless, Lincoln's Gettysburg address Is In a sense the sublimation of all that h wrote and said. It Is the utterance of n great soul orouscd to expression by a greut occnslon. It touches the heart. It satisfies tho hrnin. It Is Abraham Lincoln him self. Lloyd George, In his tribute to Lin coln nt the unveiling of the Lincoln statue last August near Westminster Abbey, used these words: "I nm not sure that you In America realize the extent to which he Is also our possession and our pride. . . . In his life he was u great American. He Is an American no longer. He Is one of those giant figures, of whom there nro very few In history, who lose their nationality In death. They ure no longer Greek or Hebrew or English or American they belong to mankind. I wonder whether I will be forgiven for saying that Georgo Washington was a great American, but Abraham Lincoln belongs to the common people of every land." True, but wordy 1 Tho sumo tiling was said better long ago. There was a great lawyer who de spised Lincoln, who had reviled and Insulted him. Hut Lincoln knew Us ability and his patriotism nnd took him Into his cabinet as his war secre tary. Tho man entered tho cabinet, expecting and intending to run the government. Truly bad Lincoln said, "with n tusk" before me greater than that which rested upon Washington." That task was to prevent the Union from splitting In twain, to bring bark the seceding states by force of arms, and to reunite a divided country half slave and half free. How Lincoln accomplished n part of that task we ull know. In 1805 Lee surrendered at Appomattox and tho armed resistance of tho Confederacy was at an end. And during those four moiiontous years this war secretary, who had despised and reviled mid In sulted Lincoln, had quickly come to appreclato and love Lincoln and to obey him. Six days nfter Lee's surrender nt Appomattox Lincoln's further accom plishment of Ills task wuh cut short by tho assassin's bullet. . And as Abra ham Lincoln's eyelids closed In death his great war secretary, Edwin M. -Stanton, stepped forward nnd spoko the proved Judgment of humanity: "Now he belongs to the ages," Nobody will know.
