Americus and Columbus fertilizer men are back of the enterprise.

Americus does not get the Wlrz monument, which, instead, w<U be er ected at Andersonville, where, commandant ot the Federal prison with its forty-five thousand occupants, he performed zealously the work assigned him. Such was the decision of the con vention of the United Daughters of the Confederacy last Thursday. Americus bid for the monument up on the plea that, located here, It would not engender the bitterness of the North which Its presence at Ander sonville will arouse. The decision as to location was reached yesterday morning. Commander H. T. Davenport, ot Camp Sumter, 642, U. C. V. sent the following telegram yesterday mornlug to the U. D. C. convention. Americus, Ga,, Oct 31.—Mrs. A. B. Hull, president, U. D C. Ladles of the convention. United Daughters of the Confederacy; Lo cate the Wlrz monument In Americus, where loving hands will care for It and brave hearts will defend It from the hand of desecration.” H. T. Davenport, Commander. For Camp Sumter 642, U. C. V. Capt. Davenport, like many others, believed that Americus rather than Andersonville, should be the site ot the monument, but the daughters have willed it otherwise. The purpose of the monument, aside from perpetuating the memory of a valiant Confederate soldier, will refute the vile slanders and calum nies hurled at him by fanatics in the North respecting the treatment of prisoners. To this end the U. D. C. wished the monument to stand at Andersonville, a silent sentinel, where tbe thousands who come from the North to visit the National Cemetery may read in let ters of bronze the refutation of their misrepresentation. Contracts for the monument was awarded to Clark's Monumental Works, of Americus. It will be erect ed by the National U. D. C., and will cost, completed, about $3,000. Ga.
