Forms were put out as the new
"representation before state agen-

cial session last fall, went into ef-
fect. Law was designed to keep a
check on those paid to seek help
senting their different political
views, principally on the issue of
slavery. When the campaign was
over. Illinois sent Douglas to the
United States Senate, but it was
Lincoln's views that eventually
swayed the nation.
Curiously enough Lincoln had
once appeared in a law suit that
involved a slavery question, and
his arguments had swayed the Il-
linois Supreme Court which then
included Judge Douglas. That was
in 1841. Lincoln had lost his caso
in the lower courts, but on appeal
he successfully argued that the
sale of a Negro girl was illegal
because it had not been proved
that she was not a free person.
Lincoln's reputation for honesty
and ability as an advocate for his
client is well known in history.
It was amply reflected in his
steadiness and determination in
the course he pursued as presi-

as sharply reflected in his four

Lincoln rapidly gained the repu-

and a sincere peacemaker."
Judge Davis often allowed Lin-
coln to act as judge while Davis
was out of town provided both
sides agreed. It is a tribute to Lin-
coln's reputation as a lawyer that
both sides, usually did agree.
Lincoln's fame as the Civil War
president is so great that his
standing in the legal profession
is dimmed by comparison.
But Lord Shaw, the great Eng-
lish jurist, ranked Lincoln as one
of the five greatest lawyers of all
time; and Justice Breese of the
Illinois Supreme Court remarked
that Lincoln had "a professional
bearing so high-toned and honor-
able as justly entitling him to be
presented to the profession as a
model well worthy of closest imi-
tation."
