He. fought the Civil War not to uproot} but to preserve. He will be remem{ bered when men who have been, known in politics only as assailants as attackers, as critics, will have! been long forgotten. Critics serve, their purpose as modifying influenâ€", ces, but mere critics leave nothing| behind them which is long rememâ€"< bered.

"In his Milwaukee speech (Re warned against (the agitation economic radicals with the statemen that the worker should be slow to tear down the house of another, leg! his own house be torn down. Judgi by Lincoln‘s utterances, many of 0 modern approaches toward patern ism and state socialism would ha been repugnant to him.

He advocated reverente for the law and for the federal chartâ€" er itself. His Cooper Union s s and all his speeches during the gregt period of debate preceding his &F&â€" tion as President were primarily ai peals to the Constitution and tgé known sentiments of its authors. "So far from being radical, Lin*ln was essentially conservative. It was for that very reason that he was nominated for President by his pafty at Chicago in 1860 over the re radical leaders of, what was then beâ€" lieved to be a ra&ical party. Lincgin was not in sympathy with the radigal foes who denounced the federal C@nâ€" stitution as "a league with death dnd a covenant with hell." He depreca the John Brown raid. He was disâ€" satisfied with the Dred Scott decisign, but he blamed it upon the prejudfs of judges, arfd would: never have dreamed of proposing that becafise of his disappointment with certgin decisions, the Constitution be in @fâ€" fect repealed by making Congr@ss the final judge of the constitutionglâ€" ity of legislation.
