REUNION OF CONFEDERATE VETERANS.
Tiir reunion <f t lie old heroes of the ( onfederacy in All ant a this
■week should bring sadness to all Southern hearts, for it rallies out
thoughts hark to the sixties. t< the sacrifices, the griefs and sorrows
of that period which should never be forgotten.
And these old veterans now meeting together in a reunion for the
last time makes it more pathetic. They were llie bravest of the brave,
born when knighthood was in flower, and a prayer should ascend to
the throne above that we as a people may never forget their valor and
loyally and that the last days of those who yet survive may he freed
us much as possible from the cares and burdens of age. May we never
the heroes why wore the gray and ever hold their memories
sacred.

THE REPUBLICAN PRESS.
The New York Times is one of the strong and powerful papers that
5s advocating and defending the treaty and league of nations.
In last Sunday's edition of this great paper, which is one of the
leading exponents of real Americanism, it gives much lighl and in
formation as to the attitude of the Republican press on this all im
portant question now coni routing our country.
Under the above caption “The Republican Press" il tolls why the
anti Treaty Republican Senators are worried as 1o the outcome as iol-
lows:
One of the reasons why the nnti-Treaty Uepubliean Senators
are worried about the outcome of their endeavors may be that the
Republican press is not backing them u] 11 "lakes no difference
which State you pick out. you find a defection from the strictest
sect of .lohnsonism among leading Republican newspapers. _
It mav possibly annoy Senator JOHNSON to ibid Republican
journals from Oakland to Fresno opposing hm>. even it lie disre
gards such papers as The Los Angles Times. It may not annoy
Senator BRANDKCKK to find The Norwich Bulletin and Ihe
Waterhury Republican taking a different stand from Ins, but it
must trouble Senator BORAH a little to find The Boise Statesman
supporting the League. We all know enough about Boise to ap
preciate what that means.
\s for lowa, wher? Senator (TMMIN S speech evoked a col
umn and a half protest from The Des Moines Register the whole
.Republican press, with very few exceptions seems to he tor the
Treaty and the Covenant. Senator <'AITLR S lopeka upi a
leads the list in Kansas, lu Maine it is only necessary to mention
the names of The Augusta Journal and The Lewiston Journal to
show that the Senators from that State have greatly mistaken
their aim. The Baltimore Amenoaa is one paper m Maryland oui
of several that might give Senator BRANCH pause, and as for
Massachusetts, where Senator LOIMSK theoretically runs every
thing there is a long list of Republican newspapers Horn Ames
bury to Waltham that take a different view
It is needless to go through the list of States. Ihe St. Lour
(ilohe-Democrat is against Senator ; T ‘ V icT’Vhde
Journal confutes Senator RRKLINtMIIA SKN, 1 he loledo Blade
represents public sentiment in Ohio better than Congressman
BBSS The Portland Oregonian heads the list of Oregon Repub
lican newspapers that are telling Republican representatives tl.a
the West wants the • League. Pennsylvania, despite Sinatm
KNOX has many Republican journals that are lor the It eatj.
LHNROOT is hacked up in Milwaukee by The Sentinel and from
Bara boo "to Oshkosh by other perfectly straight Republican 0.-
only question is whether the people in Washington lvave
beard from the people at home. One thing is sure: Lithei the be
~Silica" Senators arc right or the Reyublicau newspapers a
and it used to he an axiom that the newspapers knew more about
what people were thinking than the Senators did.
There are more than 150 notably Republican newspapers in tin
Jm.rv “ earnestly Treaty and .he Lea
gwe. Is it well to disregard them?
DON T FOLLOW A MOSQUITO.
It is dangerous for a politition to appeal to hatred, to ignorance
and prejudice, even though hy doing so he may succeed in gelling
cfficial position. It is only a question of time when some other dema
gogue will adopt the same course and bring about his defeat.
The man who appeals to such forces to win ofliee rarely ever
amounts to much and seldom reaches the heights ol fame where real
statesmen have their names enrolled.
It is a sad commentary, however, on our civilization to know that
kucli leadership yet has followers, men who can be misguided by the
-cry oT justice, liberty and equality from demagogues who care as
little for justice, liberty and equality as a mosquito cares for your
rest when you are trying to sleep.
-sf DEATH CLAIMS DR. JAMES W. LBE.
In the death of Dr. James W Lee last wceK in St. Louis, the Meth
odist of the South lose one of their able men and great preachers.
He was a native Georgian, and it was during his pastorates of
Trinity and Park street churches, of Atlanta, that he came to be recog
nized as a great leader and minister as well as writer and selmllar.
His death will bring sorrow and regret to thousands of hearts in
his native state where he was loved by all who knew him.

THE OLD FLAG.
King of onr fathers —
Made by our mothers—
Under its fold* J
All Southrons were brothers)
Bravely il flaunted —
High in the breeze;
Waving undaunted 1
Through land and through sea*.
Stout hearts were beating—
lied blood eourse* fast —
None thought of retreating,
And war came at last.
Loud beat the roll-call
Of war’s wild alarm —
(Quickly the* heart-call,
To shield it from harm!
Bravely they followed
Through storm and through flood?
No flag is more hallowed—
None richer in flood!
Wo who have flown it
Through sorrow and care,
Now to disown it —
What bouthron would dare?
Where leaders more dashing
Than .Jackson and Leet
What brighter blade flashing
Than Somme*’ on the seat
Bugles are calling
Across the dim years;
Old comrades meeting, j
With smiles and with tears.
Flag of otir fathers —
Made by our mothers —
Under its folds
All Southrons are brothers.
