Government Is Man's Most Exalted Work. Republican Government Is the Supreme Type of Organization. The United States Government Is of All Governments the Best. Therefore, the men who performed that most difficult of human undertakings— the establishment of law-and who performed that task with a success without parallel, the men who constructed the American Republic are leaders whose works have proved their wisdom con summate. That Wisdom is concretely bodied forth in the MESSAGES And Papers OF THE PREsidents. In these Papers our Chief Magistrates and the statesmen, jurists, financiers, warriors who composed their Cabinets discuss questions. perpetually before the voter, and define the fundamental policies on which is based this greatest human achievement. Their Doctrines form our Governmental Gospel. |
