Wht re Arc Tlielr Succcsacts7 Clmicago Ilerald Within a few weeks America has lost two of its greatest controversial lawyers , and with then two of its purest politic. aanns. The names of Montgonory Blair mmd Jereniuh lsmuck are as inseparably connected with time history of the 11'ashi- irmgton bar as thluy are with the political life which surged in and around time national - tional capital h.fnrpl during and after the war of the rebellion. Unlike the mnjor ity of time glect luwyer statasmen , these two men were possessed of broad views on national gnestinns and able to look over time rim of party obligations and see clearly time trtuscemmdent claimns of na- tionnl unity. They were democrats of time ] highest typo. Black , as time friend and nearest counselor of Buchanan , held bath the fated hands of that last dmno- crntic president from delivering over every advantage to time enemies of time union , Buchanan believed in conces- sium.s and compromise. Black argued tlmat any question imivulving time pe pet- uity of the union there was no middle ground. With him time right of a state to secced could not be a subject even for discussion , liis democracy was of the same pure stripe wimicli carried 1liciit ' eoucry Blairinto Lincoln's cabimet whom time nation needed sound henna and loyal lmearla in time president's counsel. As a' ' uroat advocate and jurist Black was Blair's superior , chiogy , it lies been said , because time latter was of that camtanker- sus nature which profered to be bnilliant [ Y defeated with limo minority than viii with the odds of law and facts in his fa- vor. The codtrovetsialist spirit whiclm was so strong in these two mom seen to hero been inspired toward entirely difrer- emit eicods. Black spoke or wrote to dum- onstr atc the right ; Blair strove by tnrmgue and peal to con'iet his advesaries of wrong. Black's reluctance to leave this world was because of the good ho thought Imo might do for his fellow citizems. Blnr objected to his final aunm.nom.s because - cause lee hated to join time majority.
