Hendricks belonged to a school in politics to which the associations and convictions of my life have brought me into bitter hostility, and of course I cannot speak in approval of his attitude upon the great questions of the past, upon which the people of the country divided on party and sectional lines. To one or two phases of his career and belief I may, however, properly advert He was a man of strong convictions, and he had little respect for those who were otherwise.

Few public men ever lived whose course evoked bit- terer criticism from opponents than did his at times. The fact that he preferred to stem the tide of popular sentiment rather than to walk the easy, open way to popular favor is at least con- clusive of the strength of his convictions. It had not long before his death become fashionable in some quarters to speak of him as a "spoilsman.
