Janesville Gazette (Newspaper) - July 12, 1867, Janesville, Wisconsin OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE CITY FRIDAY 13 A BIS Job for the Historian A democratic exchange ventures upon he prediction that the future

native village up to dent of tho United States speeches that he did make were flat stale and un- profitable but they were free from insult and had tho merit of brevity iwo ties that have not characterized the sions of tho Tennessee statesman to any groat extent There was another reason why tho New England people be polito to tho Johnson Tho Congress by tho people of the and now a child could load him They thought they could afford to forgive him fur recommending tho hanging of their favorite Senator aod for wanting their silver-tongued agitator burned at tho stake us they used to burn So they him tho natural way of tho hair and tho purred sweetly When thj historian to estimate the valuo of Mr Johnson's public services and them with thoso rendered tho country by Mr ho will find tho difference eo chat he will not undertake to run a parallel between them Jefferson behind him some evidences of statesmanship that are still tho and glory of tho Republic and ho ted more to the success of republican ideas than man of his period lie seldom or never made public speeches and has therefore loft nothing for the historian to contrast with Johnson's effort ou tho day ho inaugurated
