Ills 'orIneT lOeS the gallant
Wheeler, the steadfast Fitzhugh
Lee, the chivalrous Butler, and
many others of our own brave
comrades, to marshal the hosts of
the Union. We are glad that Gen.
Wheeler had another opportuni
ty to exhibit the fighting qualities
OF the Confederate soldier, and
that Lieuts. Hobson, Victor EIne
and Worth Bagley, in the navy,
showed the country of what stuff
our young men are made. Once
more the blood of the north and
south has been poured out togeth-
emo longer beneath contending
standards in the bitterness of war
between the states, but now be-
meath one flag, to the glory of one
country. Those dead, belong to us
all. The last hateful memory that
could divide our country is buried
with them. About their grave
kneels a new nation, loving all
her children everywhere the
same"
Alluding to the question of
Confederate graves the report
says: THE recent generous words
of President Mckinley, com mend
ing the Confederate dead to the
nations care are the expression
of sentiment growing every
where, that the deeds of the Con-
federate soldier are the glory of
the whole country and that his
memory is worthy to be cherished
wherever self-sacrlfice commands
sympathy or brave actions strike
responsive chord In noble
hearts,"
WATCHING THE HISTORIES.
Coming down to the question
for which 1T was appointed the
committee says that it's duty is
no little more than to keep watch
upon the histories of the day, and
to stimulate historic research and
publication, and regards the pros
pect for fairness and candor in
history as much improved by the
Spanish war. The committee also
alludes to the race question, and
expresses the opinion that the
race problem is not apt in the
future to be so binding to a true
apprehension OF southern hlsto
ry," aid says: "The recent
movement to put the supremacy
of the more educated and capable
race upon a constitutional and le-
gal basis, thus banishing the
spectre of misrule from our bor-
ders, is steadily gaining progress -
Continuing, the report says
The reception given our benev-
olent intentions in the Philip
pines is certainly of a character
likely to inspire wholesome re-
spect for the matter of governing
people of another blood who have
started late In the race Of civil.

THE LAST DAY REUNION.
Much Important Work Disposed
of at the Final Session.

Charleston, May 12.-With a
spirited and at times stormy Sc IS
ION, the ninth annual reunion of
the United Confederate veterans
was today brought to a close.
Gen. John b. Gordon, com
mander-in-chief, and all the old
officers were reelected. Louis
vile, KY, was chosen as the next
place of meeting; and the ques
tlon of Federal care of Confeder
ate graves was disposed of by the
adoption of "a sub-resolutlon which
declines the presidents sugges
ton except as to those graves To-
Gated In the north, and reserying
to the women Of the south the
duty of caring for those IN the
seeding states and Maryland.
The adoption Of this resolution
and the report that accompanied
1t precipitated debate which
verged upon the sensational, and
at times much confusion and dis
order prevailed.
The resolution adopted in place
OF the one offered by Gen. S. D.
Lee ls in full as follows:
Your committee to whom was
referred the resolution introduced
by Gen. S. ID. Lee beg to report
the following substitute, with
recommendations of the commit
tee that the same be adopted:
1.-The United Confederate veter-
ans In reunion assembled, desire
to place upon record their sincere
appreciation of the utterances of
the president of the United States
In Atlanta in December last. con-
corning the assumption of the
care of the graves Of our Confed-
crate dead by the national gov
ernment.
1--WE appreciate every kindly
sentiment expressed, and we shall
welcome any Legislation which
shall result in the care of the
hraves Of our comrades in the
northern states by our govern.
ment.
'ln regard to our dead whose
remains are resting in the states
which were represented in the
Confederacy, and Maryland, the
care of their final resting places
is sacred trust, dear to the
hearts Of southern women, and
we believe that we can safely let
it there remain"
Several very vigorous speeches
were made in opposition to the
whole principle involved in the
matter, but the final vote upon
the resolution was practically
unanimous, and the announce.
ment of its passage was cheered.
Another incident was the men
ton of the southern lynching
question by DR.. j. L. M. Curry,
one of the surviving members of
the Confederate congress, who,
while denouncing mob law, de-
tended the south, and declared
her people should see to 1t that
the record of her future should be
as unstained as that Of her past. .

compared his first glimpse OF Homer 10 the
gaze of Corsez on the Pacific, as he stood

The lecture, which can only be fusrmar-
