Mr. Stevens' theme was ."Lincoln

possibly for tho first time, a letter
which'President Sapcoln sent to Gen

said Mr. Stevens in his address, "is
an answer to tlie '.ilslorlal controversy
as to the course Mr. Lincoln would
havo pursued had he lived out his '
second term." ...

"In his letter,", said Mr. Stevens,
"tlie president authorized the organi

LON LIFE

11857, and closed with the message
I Lincoln sent through Blair to Ooneral
Citit/Sb C. Shelby and tho Missouri
Confederates, a few weeks before the
surrender ot. Lee. In th? letter to
Gcjneral Shl?by, said Mr. Stevens,
Lincoln offered the old of the federal
government to t'.te onfederates west
of thc Mississippi river to march- to
Mexico and Join Juarez who was fight
ing tho French under Maximilion.
'The relationship between Lincoln
and Missouri -was contiuous from the
conference with Blair in 1857 to the
message sent Shelby in 1S6.V said Mr.
Stevens, "lt was intimate. lt '.-.ad
a deciding influence upon national
politics. It had no small part In the
fortunes of the Civil war.
"In tlie spring of i860, came frult
tion pf the Lincoln and Missouri re
lationship. Following . at once upon
tito defeat bf Lincoln In 1S5S for the
senatcrship, the organization to con
;rol tho presidential nominntion ' was
started. Into the movement entered a
personality not publicly conspicuous
ut tlie time but of great force under
cover.
*<Blair and tho younger men were
in tho forefronrt carrylug the banners
of free soli, free democracy, gradual
emancipation, white labor, coloniza
tion and the like.
I "In the background was Edward
Bates, counseling and encouraging.

pieces. He was in sympathy with the
work of new party construction wStlch
Lincoln was doing in illinois-- : He
