Public speakers are badly needed,
and indeed it il Il rarity to find one.
! do not mean that it is hard to find
men to talk, but men to say some
thing. Some men will talk for a
week and say nothing. Know your
subject: know your matter; know
yourself, if YOU have anything to say
say it. To talk at random in order
to tickle crowd is folly. Comrades,
there is a crisis approaching, time

MARCHING ON!

jeff Davis is dead. Thirty years
ago the song ran "We'll hang jeff

it is only now that "his soul is
marching on"
The mantle of time obscures the
evil of mems lives and the grave
covers many sins. But Davis is i'll.
separately connected with Ameri.
can history and his character will
be passed in Judgment by future
generations. To-day, in the south,

ly commenced. When the war
began, he failed in the same quail

wall Jackson cxcelled.
Had lie been ever so great as a
southern Moses, his ignominious
and ridiculous capture at the end
Of the war, his woful lack of glory
as a martyr, and the gigantic sar-
casm of great people, who ignor-
ing him as a petty and pitiful cap.
tive, let him loose, to go where he
liked as one of whom they had no
fear. Such an ending to his ca-
reer easily took all the romance
that there might have otherwise
remained after his defeat. Even
l5oulanger and Dom Pedro have
more glory than that.
Figuratively speaking, Davis has
spent the twenty-five years since
the war, roasted high i'll the
branches of that "sour apple tree
and amused himself, now and then,
with shying little hard sour apples
at Uncle Sam when lie saw him
pass. But Uncle Sam still goes
