SOUTH'S TRIBUTE
TO THE CONFEDERATE DEAD IN
NORTHERN FIELDS.
Car Loads of Flowers From Dixie Land
Will be Sent to Chicago on the
Occasion of the Dedication of the
Confederate Monument in That
City on nay goth.

ATLANTA, March 22.-Ex-Lieutenant
Governor John c. Underwood, of Ken
lucky passed through Atlanta yester-
day on his return from Savannah on
his way to New Orleans. He is in At
lanta for the purpose of arranging for
floral tributes to be sent to Chicago on
the occasion of the dedication of the
Confederate monument to be unveiled
in Chicago on the SOth of May. The
fund for the building of this monument
was raised chiefly through the instru-
mentality of Colonel Underwood. a
prominent ex-confederate soldier, Of
Kentucky. Several of his immediate
family were in the federal army, and
several years ago Colonel Underwood
conceived the idea of the erection OF a
monument in Chicago in commemora-
ton Of the confederate dead buried in
northern fields. Northern and southern
men joined in in contributions and a
fund of $12, 900 was raised and the mon
ument has been completed. The Fed
eral government has appropriated h
battery of guns captured during the
war, for the ornamentation of the
grounds around the monument and
distinguished federal and confederate
generals will participate in the exer-
cises of dedication. A carload of flow
ers will be sent from Savannah, Allan
ia, New Orleans, and other southern
cities will make contributions. Colonel
Underwood is enthusiastic in speaking
of the arrangements for the dedicatory
exercises and says that it will be the
most nota BILE occasion in commemora-
ton of the determination of the Sec
tions that has occurred since the war.

How opinions change. Calves
ton News remarks that "the free
American statesman must turn his
attention more to preventives OF
crime" 1t is not long since that
the News was instant in calling for
the rope as the only effectsal pre-
ventiVe. The LIGHT took issue
with that idea, citing the brutaliz-
ing tendency of all brutal punish.
ment and maintaining that only
in the greater humanizing Of the
race could we look for the decrease
of crime. 1t is gratifying to note
that a change is coming over the
public mind, and that the present
more sensible demand is for pre-
ventives. The only preventive is
education, an increased repugnance
to crime, per Sc, and not the pun
ishments that follow detection of
crime. This work is a work for
the home in it's fireside training );
for the school in it's moral inculca-
tions; for the state in its industrial
schools and in its real reform work.
This latter, a work practically un-
known as yet in most OF the states,
and requiring the best thought
and the wisest devise ment and the
most practical adaptation Of means
to end and the largest hearted men
of the times as its directors in or
der to insure its success. The only
motto for those who would aid in
bringing in this work of proven
tion is, work and wait.

The Brenham Banner says: "The
Standard Oil magnates, who are
vociferously making the claim that
they could not possibly have COM
mitted an offence against the anti
trust laws Of Texas, as they were
never within the state, would also
probably claim that they could not
possibly have violated any Of heav-
ems laws, because they were never
in heaven" The Banners logic is
peculiar. 1t has not as yet been
satisfactorily established that the
court of heaven exercised original
jurisdiction over the Standard Oil
company or any other. This habit
of speaking ex.cathedra about
heaven and its laws and hell and
it's penalties, all matters without
the Jurisdiction of the human judg-
ment, is much too prevalent for
any good use. 1t is the business
of the press to deal with things
practical, and not to endeavor to
decide the matters of this present
and material world by the I'M
known things of that alleged spir.
itual that lies beyond. Sufficient
unto the day is the judgment
thereof.
