When that immortal Southern chieftain Robert E Lee surrendered theremnant of his brave and gallant littleamy the confederate soldier realized

at in the language of Caesar Thedie was cast and all was over The

use he loved so well ancktor whichhe had fought bled and suffered petration and hardship was forever lostto him For a moment his breast

aved with emotion his frame trem ¬

ed and he bowed his head and weptthen turning his back upon the battle

lds he took up his long and wearymarch homeward

Behold him as he trudges along hisp is slow and his once strong frame

is reduced to a mere shadow his cheeksare hollow and his body is racked with-

inpa When night comes on and heseeks a place to rest the earth is his

d and the blue and canopy of theavens his covering When morning

dawns be resumes his journey home-

ward¬

and as he proceeds his tatteredand ragged uniform his emaciated

ame tells the story for him and heis ministered to with kind hands andloving hearts Now he is nearing

me familiar scenes present them ¬

selves on every side and his tread bec-

omes quicker and his eye brighterAt last he gains an elevation whichcommands a view of his once stately

me and wide plantation and pausesth bowed head perhaps in prayrhaps fearful to behold the ruintellmAt length he raises his head and looks

upon the scene of devastation Hehad passed through many battleswhere shot and shell were as number-less

¬

as tbe sands of the seashore andbad charged to tile flaming mouths ofthe cannon and his courage had never

iled but the sight of his home inruins and his plantation laid wastewas a greater test of courage than hehad ever known before He had gone

forth to fight for that which he believ¬

ed just and right country and homeand being overpowered he had soughtsolace in his homeit was gone Hopeand despair battled for supremacy At

st loving arms were entwined aboutneck and a sweet bright face looked

up into his ownWoman his southland stood by him speaking words ofcheer and urging him onward Hopetook up its abode in his heart thusaided and the battle was won Wom-

an hound up his wounds and nursedhim back to health and strength andimbued him with hope and courage tobegin life anew A cabin of unhewnlogs was made and she who had beenreared amid luxurious surroundingstook up her household duties thereinwith a cheerful mien A mule wasfound on the range and with rudelyconstructed harness and plow the confederate soldier took his place behind

plow with tbat indomitable willbattled eGradually order was brougbt

out of chaos and fields and grounds re-

sumed partly their former appearanceuntil today the sweet sunny southstands tbe wonder and admiration of

atthe worldthe envy of the North andtarget for all the vile vituperation ofthe Northern press

With these facts before UP is it anywonderand Isnt it right that theman of the south should love and est-

eem woman his southland aboveall other things of the earth Ayeand he will defend and protect herfrom the Insults and outrages of tbeblack imps of hell whom tbe Northwould lovingly emhrace and deferfrom justice

year when be pardoned a negro buckfrom the state prison on the conditionthat he would become a citizen of Mas

sachusetts Immediately The people

of that state had roared so long andloud that Davis was deslous of showingthem what kind of black devils be hadto contend with Of course this raiseda louder howl but little did Davis care

The South is now the better part of

the United States in many ways Hermanufacturing enterprises are rapidlyincreasing and ere long will outstriptbe north The intelligence of theuthleaving out the negroes accordtag to numbers exceeds that of thenorth At the close of the war thesouth was a waste but within fortyyears ithas grown to be pne of theleading sections of the globe This isdue to southern IIget you go for manner of conducting things It is absol-utely unnecessary for the Administra ¬

tion to appoint negroes to office in thecompeIshould have the appointments Inview of this fact i the recent negro appolntment at Charleston looks likespite work A newspaper stated ediitoraly few days ago that the Democratic press was kicking about theCharleston appointment and that ithad evldentally overlooked the facttbat two negroes were lee out of officein the south not long ago and whitemen installed

The southern Republicans of thewhite faction are raising more sandthan the Democrat press and I say

keep on raising sand until the negrooffice holding curse is removed We

dont need the I black element therefor they only create discord and mis-

chief As for the two negroes Teddyremoved from office they were like allothers of their colorIncompetent-and he had to kick them out Keepthe negro in his place and there willbe no trouble but put him in a whitemans shoes and the devil increasesbusiness right away

God in all his wisdom made thewhite man first and he should still bfirst in every thing Tbe Indian says

God made white man first red mannext dog next and bigger last ITeddy is so anxious to Rive Sambojob he should try him in the Northawhile and let the long suffering per-

BRANN ON MAN

The place to take the measure of aman Is sot in the forum or the field

not In the market place or the amencorner but his own fireside There helays aside his mask and yoj may judgewhether he is imp or angel king or curhero or humbug I care not what tbeworld says whether it crowns himwin bays or pelts him with bad eggs

I care not a copper what his reputa-

tion may be it his babies dread hishomecoming and his betterhalf swalows her heart every time she asks fora five dollar bill hes a fraud of thefirst wateri fe

When the children rush to the frontgate to meet him and loves own sun-

shine illuminates the face of his wifewhen she hears his footfall you takeIt for granted that he is pure gold forhis home is a heaven and the humbugnever gets that near to the whitethrone of God He may be a rankatheist and a red flag anarchist aMormon and a mugwump he may buyvotes In blocks of five and bet on theelection and may deal them from thebottomot the peak and drink beeruntil he cant tell a silrerdollar from acircular saw and still be Infinitely abetter man than the cowardly littlehypocrite who is all suavity In societyyet makes his home shellwho ventsupon the helpless heads of his wife andchildren the Illnature that he would

like to inflict upon his fellowmen buthe dares not 1 can forgive much inthat fellow mortal who bad rathermake men swear than women weepthe eworld than the contempt of his wife

Senator Hoar thus contrasts Impe ¬

rialism and selfgovernment

What have your ideals cost you andwhat have they brougbt for you

1 For the Philippine Islands you

have had to repeal the Declaration of

Independence

For Cuba you have had to reaffirmit and give it new luster

2 For the Philippine islands you

have had to convert the Monroe doc-trine tats a doctrine of mere selfish

nessForCuba you have acted on it and

vindicated It3 In Cuba you have got the eternal

gratitude of a free people

In the Philippine islands you havegot the hatred and sullen submissionof a subjugated people

4 From Cuba you have broughthome nothing but glory

From the Philippines you havebrought home nothing of glory

6 In Cuba no man thinks of countInK the cost The few soldiers whocame home from Cuba wounded or sickcarry about their wounds and theirpale faces as it they were medals ofhonor What soldier glories in awound or an empty sleeve which hegot in the Philippines

6 The conflict in the Philippinesrehas cost you 8600000000 thousands oftarr6youththe health and sanity of thous-

CHARACTER IS WORTH

Character is what a man really isReputation is what he appears to be orIs supposed to be Not every time djcharacter and reputation coincide inthe same Individual Men who do notcare for character because they knowthey are not honest will do everythingin their power to protect their reputatlon says tbe New Orleans PicayuneCharacter amounts to so much in thisworld that reputation for honesty be-

comes¬

exceedingly valuable because itmay save a man from being publicly

disgracedValuable

as a good character is itis not sufficiently appreciated by em-

ployers¬

It should be rewarded par-

ticularly¬

when coupled with businessability But the unscrupnlous employer does not want a man who may re¬

ruse to do his bidding in some crookedtransaction and so the honest mansometimes goes begging

But the fact remains that never be¬

tore was there such a need of honestmen and women and the world willsooner or later find it out Sharp prac ¬

tice does not always win and custom¬

ers who are cheated find out the factand in time the world will go back tohonesty and the sharpers will be castout Let the honest workers stand totheirprlnciples They are the founda ¬

lion upon which the vast and noblestructure of virtue and honor is builtand must ever remain

The number of men who tall on ac-

count¬

of lack of courage is enormousThe number who would refuse to letgo of a dollar if they knew positivelyit would bring back two is astonishingSuch men merely exist They dontlive They never really amount toanything The men who win are tbemen who think out the right course to

ursue then back up their convictionswith their last penny and their lasounce of energy The first goods JohnWanamaker ever sold broughthlm 36
