THE REAL dEORUE WASHINGTON
In the United States, "as in most of
the other Dations in which the voice
of the press is free, great public per
sonages ordinarily pass through two
stages in the popular estimation de
traction and deification. -This has
been true in a peculiar degree with
George Washington. No other oc
cupant of the presidency, strange as
' this may seem to most persons of
today, was ever traduced more vio
lently and indecently than was the
first man who held that post. Philip
Freneau, Benjamin Franklin Bache,
William Duane and other -editors of,
of the yellow newspapers of & little
. over a century ago, abused "Washing
ton with a vindictiveness and persist
ence which, to persons who read these
utterances now, are rather humorous
in their grotesque. mendacity. These
attacks followed Washington into re
tirement, and they were not alto
gether stilled even by his death. Of
course Washington's traducers had
bo more influence on the contempo
rary judgment of the Father of his
Country than they have had on the
estimate of posterity. The opinion
expressed of Washington by such
close acquaintances of his as Hamil
ton, Pinckney, Jefferson and Madi
son, and of such unprejudiced and
capable foreign critics as Chatham,
Burke, Frederick the Great and
"Vergennes, shows the exalted place
he held in the regard, of his contem
poraries. Following the deification stage of
Washington's reputation, hewever,
which came shortly after the period
of his petty detrastors, arrived a
stage of petty disparagement, which
is well expressed in the assertion of
Gold win Smith in his history of the
United States, that Washington never
won a battle. This is the judgment of
shallow persons who are unable or
unwilling to take into the" account
the immense difficulties under which
Washington worked, even . in the
French and Indian war, when he was
a loyal subject of King George, and
helped to drive the French out of the
new world and to save North Amer
ica for the Anglo-Saxon race. It is
known to students of that period that
s if Braddock had paid more heed to
the counsel of Washington and re
lied less on his own prejudices against
the colonial judgment the disaster of
1755 would not have occurred, and
Fort Duquesne, on the site of Pitts
burg, would have been taken that
year instead of remaining in French
hands until 1758, when- it was cap
tured by the army under the British
general, Forbes. That army, accord
ing to the British historian, Green,
was "guided and inspired by the cour
age of George Washington." ""
The man who, with a small, poorly
armed and poorl3' disciplined army,
forced a large British force in 1776
to evacuate Boston, a town open to
the sea, and capable of being defend
ed by the navj of which Howe had
; many vessels; who crossed the Delaware-
on Cnristmas'night of that year
and captured 1000 Hessians; who
routed the British at Trenton in
1777, and who penned up Cornwa'.lis
at Yorktown and captured him, was,
even under the most discouraging
circumstances, " a winner of battles.
The British historians of the better
class, like Green, Knight and Lecky,
give Washington higher praise as a
military man than any of the British
commanders in this country at that
time, even than Cornwallis, one of
- the greatest cf the English generals
of the eighteenth century.. The man
who fired the first shot in the war
.which, saved North America , to
Aoglo Saxon-civilization, and . who,
a dozsn yenr later, commanded in
the war which put the .greater part of
that region in control of the younger
and more progressive branch of that
race, certainly performed deeds which
give him a conspicuous place among
the great warriors of the world. That
this man was made chairman cf the
convention which framed the consti
tution, and that he - was, by unani
mous choice, put at the bead of the
government which that constitution
brought into being, shows the regard
in which he was held by 'the men of
the generation which declared he
was first in war, first in peace and
first in the hearts of his countrymen.
