More Wntcb for them. Improving on History I just finished hearing a Politician, one of the Washington Boys, talk 'on Abraham Lincoln^ The only thing I could picture in common 'between him and Lincoln was that . they had both been in Washington. When a Politician aint talking about himself he is talking about Lincoln. Lincoln has had more ? Public men speak of his good qualities, apd fewer copy any of them, than any man America ever produced. His famous address was only about two ^hundred words long. No Politician has ever been able to even copy his briefness. In fact that is the last one of his qualities that they would try to copy. Lincoln said more in those 200 words than has been said in the entire City of Washington in the last 10 years, and here is a quality that no historian or speaker has ever brought out before. At the completion of the Gettysburg speech, he wisely refused one df Grant's Cigars, and borrowed a sack of "Bull" Durham from an Ex Southern private, rolled his own, got on his Mule and went back to Washington.
