The Atlanta Ga. Constitution de.
tends General Ayers army record,
and then adds: "There Is one army In
which General Alger took the lead
the army of progress and fraternity.
He was one of the first to extend
comradeship to his stricken foe, and
his friendship ever since has been
marked and consistent. Not In SEN
timent alone has General Alger been
the friend Of the South, but In her
material development he has been
one of the foremost leaders He has
used all his influence to direct both
capital and immigration Ia this d.
rection. Coming out of a war In
which brothers were combatants, he
held to the belief that they should be
brothers once more in spirit as we'll
as In fact, and that In the develop
ment of our common country there
was work worthy the Hottest pstri-
otism Of a noble race"
