1.-THE South is a unit on the war
question:" said J. A. Wheeler, of At
ianta, Ca, yesterday, at the Ryan
hotel. This war;" he continued, has
done more to- bring out the true senti-
ment OF the best people of the South
than any other issue could have done.
on every hand there is the greatest
ieeilng OF allegiance to the flag. The
buildings all over the South are hung
with national colors, aud everywhere
the latest war news Is eagerly sought
| after. I have travelled over half q
dozen Southern states since war was
| declared, and I think If anything the
Southern people display little more
patriotism than the North. Possibly
| 1t Is because they are naturally more
hot-headed, but the fact remains that
| the South stands solid. Every man,
big and little, wants to join the army.
suppose 1t Is so here, but have been
| particularly struck with the earnest
patriotism of the Southern people.
Gen. F1tZhugh Lee is the idol Of
the Southern people. A thorough
Southerner himself he is loved by all
| living south Of Dixie. They would
vote for him for president of the United
States and there is much talk of him
for president in the South.
THE memories of the great Civil
war will, think, be forever erased, in
the war with Spain. The South now
stands arm and arm with the North,
ready to assist and abet her in main
tanning the nations honor"
