WELCOME TO THE VETERANS.

IT is always a pleasure 70 Richmond
people TO have within their gates the
Confederate veterans and we bid them all
welcome. We trust that their visit will
De enjoyable and that their deliberations
will be profitable.
The special work in hand OF selecting
school history is difficult task. The vet
Grams desire that the children OF Virginia
shall be taught that the Southern States
were within their constitutional rights
when they seeded and that the men OF
the South fought for the principle c. con-
stituuonal government and for their
rights.
This is as # should be and all histories
which teach otherwise should be excluded
from Southern schools.
At the same time all fair-minded men
desire that our children shall be taught
history and not fiction, that the simple
facts shall be set down without suppress
sion on the one hand or exaggeration on
the other. Virginia does not want par
tisan history, but a fair history. The
South is not afraid Of the simple, unyar-
nished truth and the history that best
tells the story as it was is the history
that the children should study.
