ONE of the most interesting TeuniOns
that ever took place was that of the
Confederate Veterans on the 25th and
26th inst. at Birmingham, Ala. The
citizens Of that enterprising young city
did all in in their power to welcome the
Rged Veterans of former generation and
a lost canse. Rapidly their ranks are
being depleted by that grim messenger
whose call is imperative but the remem-
brance of their virtue still cherished
Slowly and with t0ttefing steps these
heroes of bSgone generation are ap
proachtng the inevitable end Of their
earthly careers. To-day none excel the
sx-confsderates III loyalty to the union
and devotion to our common country.
None recognize this fact more fully than
do the boys in blue who are today the
staunchest friends of their ancient
enemies.

The state dispeusary NiquorJ law of
South Carolina has been decided unc0u-
stitutional by the supreme court Of that
state. We are glad Of this not because
We are in favor of the unrestricted sale
of Intoxicating liquor, but for the reason
that this particular law was uu-American,
oppressive and vicious i'll its tendencies
and calculated to do great harm, as has
been abundantly proved during the brief
time since its enactment,
The liquor traffic is one of those evils
which is iFTepressibIc, hut which should
be regulated by law and the bad effects
reduced 10 the minimum. Experience
we think las proved thai rigid high
license law is more effective than any
other plan that Las been adopted. At
all events. the idea Of the state going in
to the liquor business is Il degradation Of
the governmental function and a disgrace
to the state. The law met with fierce re-
sistence ia many portions of the state.
causing many riots and the loss Of several
lives in its attempted enforcement.
Local option has worked well in several

Pulls For Poe.

The many friends and admirers of
State Auditor E. w. Poe, in this county,
will be pleased to know that the Repub.
licans of Wood county in convention as
sembled have endorsed his candidacy
for the gubernatorial nomination in the
following resolution:
Resolved, That we note with pride and
satisfaction the fact that the people of
Ohio recognize the marked ability, zeal
and faithfulness that have been display
ed by our esteemed fellow citizen E. w.
Poe, in conducting the important bust
ness and affairs OF the Auditor of State,
throughout the past seven years, and
believing, as we do, that he is well quail
ified to discharge with efficiency and
honor the duties of chief executive of
this great commonwealth. and that he is
in every way worthy of this promotion,
We take pleasure in assuring him, and
our fellow Republicans of the State OF
Ohio, that we heartily endorse his can.
didacy, and that the Republicans OF
Wood county will give to him their un.
firing and ardent support for the Office
of Governor of Ohio.

The Boys Grow Old.

That the soldiers are growing old and
haply forgetful, is evinced in a circum-
stance happening last week. Several
members Of old con pany E, Ohio 22d,
which was the first company raised in
Clermont county, in April, 1861, were
asked to place comrade whose name
was given. Difficulty was found in plac.
ing the man, or in other words, coupling
his name with his personality. He had
been a private soldier, had doubtless
performed his duty well, was mustered
out with his troop and had gone on his
way, never meeting with any OF the Ba.
tavia comrades from that day. This was
33 years ago. The soldiers here had
never seen him before, knew him only
during the short term of his enlistment,
and had never seen him again. Possibly
the man might be remembered if seen,
or he might identity himself by refer.
ence to some partly forgotten circum,
stance. Otherwise he would find diff.
Guilty in recognition. Thirty three years
is long time to remember single in.
dividual by name only, out of hund-
red, all similarly dressed and accoutred.

A Bad Pen.

We have always entertained feeling
OF kindly admiration for our bright and
vigorous contemporary, the Clermont
Courier. This is not lessened at all by
discovering in its last issue an article OF
ours, credited to another paper and en-.
dorsed with flattering comment. Any
old hand at editorial work knows how
his pen will sometimes slip up on him,
putting in words and names that will
astonish him in print. He scowls at the
compositor and makes the windows rat
tie with his expletives, when the afore.
said comp. walks quietly to the dead
copy hook, sorts out the "take," and
laying it on the editorial desk, puts his
dirty digit on the Objectionable words
scrawled more plainly than anything
else on the page. We rather think the
Courier must have one of those bad pens.
