A Happy New Year.

Before the next issue Of THE
LEADER is in your possession, the
year 1898 will have passed into
history, and a New Year will have
dawned upon us. 1t is fitting
time for retrospection, and a care
full review of your life for the past
year will do you good. Look
especially 10 the mistakes you have
maze, mistakes you certainly have
made, and guard yourselves against
like errors in 1899. Perhaps 1898
has proved a fiat failure, but the
future is bright. Hope springs
eternal in the human breast" and
well it may for the human family
We need the alluring prospect
given by Hope, else in despair we
would die.
What would we all give to know
what 1899 holds for us! And yet,
could we know it, if we would
would we have temerity to look?
1t is question.
THE LEADER wishes you all a
Happy and Prosperous New Year
The prospect is now favorable
for 1899 TO be prosperous for us all
And as to The LEADER, it has
fully determined to use every effort
to be the best paper in the county
1t intends 10 be vigorous, alive
Just 10 all, generous to enemies, tc

we err, don't condemn, because
"to err is human" but remembei
we are trying, not to please every
body, but to do right and be just
Give us your aid and we shall

With these points in view, our lii

With our earnest desire to follow

wept tears of foud remembrance
over it, but it was due to the want
of material resources, and it GER
tainly showed sublimity through
the faith of those who preserved
the ever-burning fame of patriot
ism. On the other side, there were
the graves of those who had fallen
In defense of the union magni6cently
cared for, with all of the wealth
and with all of the resources of a
mighty government. Marble
reared its stately head to tell of
what the sleepers had done, while
the greensward spread like carpet
inclosed the garish color of earth,
and made the scene one pleasant to
the eye to rest upon.
Here is the contrast which the
president of the United States has
been able to see at home, while he
read from FL Caney and from
Manila of what the living from this
reunited country were doing abroad
All honor, then, must be accorded
a chief maSiStrat re who ca CirCur,,
stanced as Mr.. Mckinley, yet has
not only been broad enough and
bold enough to open out his arms
10 receive the living, but who
would spread his kindness and
benediction upon the graves of the
gallant men who fought for theil
principles, no matter under wha
what flag they marched!"

which we caught through the
smoke of FL Caney as ex-Confeder-
ate General Wheeler led the men
In blue, had become reality for
all time. Not only were the men
living, who had marched in serried
ranks from battlefield to battlefield,
brought together and made to feel
as brothers and as Americans but
the silent hosts of those gone could
be imagined moving around in the
mysterious air, breathing bene-
dlchons upon this achievements of
brotherhood and restored felicity.
"The idea ofthe president is most
telicitous, and most felicitous be-
cause 1t comes from him. A feder-
al soldier who fought for the union
through the long four years of
STRIFE; whose campaigning led him
up to the yawning intrenchments
OF the very city IN which he speaks,
he had right to speak for the men
upon whose shoulders rests the
victory of that occasion. As a
republican, and a man OF northern
birth, representing the dominant
sectlon-when there were sections
and the dominant party, as it
came out of the war, he is qualified
TO speak for the men who answered
the cali of Abraham Lincoln and
for those Americans who saw their
duty from another side than that
which was presented to us. AS
president of the United States, one
who had camped upon tented field,
placed in Office by the republican
party through votes cast almost
solidly for him in the northern
states, 1t was the height of patriot
ism for him to set aside, as emer-
gency dictated, every feeling Of
partisanship, Of rivalry, or of per
sonal antagonism, and to speak to
Americans, whether their fate be
cast upon the great lakes, within
sound of Pacific shores, or along
the coast of the south Atlantic!
During the rapidly developing
events, which have not left time fol
consideration, owing to their extra
ordinary and quickly recurring
character, we have seen the living
brought together. In the same
executive message which named a.
major general James S. Wilson
whose command captured the re
treating confederate president anC
cabinet, were carried the names o
Joseph Wheeler and Fitzhugh lie,
for the same dignity. This sum
moning of all that was best ant
grandest and noblest and mos
chivalrous in American life to tn
defense of the common flag and tn
common country, even if ii stoo'
alone, would be sufficient 10 mari
revolution toward the fraternit,
which it was often feared woul
never come.
"But when this appeal, made by
the president to the American heart
was answered as ardently i'll Geor
gia, IN Alabama and Tennessee, a
it was in Massachusetts,, III NeN
York and in Ohio, there could b
no longer doubt that the living ha
come together once again, never t
separate, but to move onward l
that grand battle for civilizaiio
and enlightenment, and for the lu
fillment of the great and mysteriou
mission which Providence holds /
reserve for this new and puissar
nation.
I'm the midst ofthe acclamatlor
evoked by the unity of the livin
there were other scenes going o
in almost every hamlet OF the south
