Excerpt from Samuel W. McCall, Governor of Massachusetts The notable career of Mr. McCall, extending over more than a generation, is a sufficient excuse for this biography. As a member of Congress he was a participant in several of the most important discussions of questions of governmental policy which have ever occurred in our history, and his utterances, both spoken and written, were based upon such extensive knowledge and were characterized by such logic of thought and fitness of literary expression as will insure them a high place in our political literature. In the preparation of this book I have made large use of them and have embodied numerous extracts from them in the narrative. It is a distinguishing feature of Mr. McCall's speeches in Congress that for the most part they deal with subjects of permanent importance and continuing interest. No public man of the present generation has been more earnest in his defense of the principle of our system of distributed power.
