Tho paals of the ' quarrel between Johnson and congress waa tho' Insttnot of self-preservation Iq the Kepublloan party; the Immediate cauae waa the difference In tho plana for the restora tion pf the II aeoedma; atatea to the union. Bn wade'a ambition to be president and Thad Stevena' daalr to punish the ' south," aa weir as Andrew Johnson'e social standing:, were con siderable factor In th problem. It la fortunate for the nation that neither side waa able to claim complete vie tory, and thus neither could Impose upon th nation all of Its dealraa. Aa It la, the legacy of that period la now one of the chief political troablea ef , the nation, for aa yet no man know Just what the 14th amendment actually does mean. Mr. Lincoln held to the theory that the atatea had no right to accede from the union, that they never had acceded ana max. in war was, in racL - an in surrectlon. Upon thla doctrine be baaed his scheme of reconstruction, which was to permit any state to reestablish Itself aa a member of th union wbea 10 per cent ok ita voting population - ahould declare loyalty and ..elect roproaenta. uvea to congress. -: Aa early aa lift, when - the lasuo of , the war waa In doubt and before any steps-were taken to free the alaves, Mr. Unooln pro- mulgrated his VJLoulalana plan," under which he recognlaafl a loyal atat g-ov-ernraent in Ioulslana and under which two representatives, Flanders and Haha, were elected to congress. They were raceivea ana aoatea in the houae In the Thad Stevena led the oppoaitloo to thla echeme and the BJth congress de- onnea w receiv representative from Mr. Wnooln's "10 per cent atatea" But the Issue waa not pressed, pending: the result of the war. The 18th congress expired Dy umitauon on March I, 1I8C, a little more, than a month before Lee surrendered and the war waa over. Lin coln did not call a special session, and he was proceeding with hla plana for a restoration of the southern atatea upon the basis of the Louisiana plan, when he waa murtered., s Johnson Ohaag-ea Mind. Andrew Johnson became president pf the United States, sA Johnaon had been a Democrat ajl hla life. He had de fied Jacfcaon, once, and had often mani fested great Independence, but ho waa nevertheless a party man. He had been placed pn the ticket with Lincoln, aa a war Democrat H waa also a aouth ern man. When it became apparent that, tho union would bo vlotorloue, Johnson , voiced aome bitterly vindica tive threate against the leaders of the confederacy and was credited with a desire to han rebels to every tree. But later he manifested a natural love for la natlye aeotlon. which waa. whether the result of hla aoclal ambitions or of hla Democratic partisanship, none ne tea g;raterul to the defeated "fol-1 lowers of the oat cauaa " Johnaon, upon becominr - nr..ldnt Jiatened to the counsel of William H.
