There is an amusing story, not a new one by any means, of the method Mr. Lincoln adopted to settle a contest over a postmas tership which had greatly annoyed him. There were two candidates in the field, and petition after? peti tion had poured upon the .weary President, and delegation after delegation had rnshed to the White House . to argue, tht claims of the rival aspirants. "Finally,; after he had been bored for half an hour by a fresh delegation Mr. Lincoln said to his secretary. 'This matter has got to end somehow Bring a pair of scales.' The scaled were brought. 'How put. In all the petitions and letters in favor of one man, and see how - much 'they weigh, - and then weigh the other candidate's papers.' i It was found : that one ' bnndle was three-quarters of pound, heavier than , the other, , r'Make . out the appointment at once for; the: man who has the heaviest papers:' or-; dered the President, and it was uone."
