NO AFFILIATlON IS SOUGHT
Objection Raised to the Display Of
Emblem at All Times.
Resolution Condemning the Display
of Confederate Flag Introduced
by Georgia Man.

Washington, October AT the meeting
of the Union Veterans union today. Com
rade Pierce, of Georgia, introduced a set
Of resolutions against the display of the
confederate colors, which ELECTED much
comment. After some discussion resolu-
tons on the subject were adopted In part
as follows:
That the blending of these emblamati-
cal colors, the entwining of the union
flag with the confederate is a mere mock
cry. an unseemly effort to harmonic adj
verse principles.
In the capacity of personal friends and
blood relations, we extend to those who
fought against us the full measure of ma
tural affection; and when they act In the
capacity of law-abiding citizens of the
republic We cheerfully give to them our
recognition; but when they act in the
capacity of confederates, making an I'M
patriotic display of the confederate colors.
we unhesitatingly decline to accord to
them the slightest recognition or af-
fliation.'
