A short time ago Master Terrill Porterheld,
son OF Deputy Sheriff George Porterfield, was
riding a colt The colt was minus saddle
and TerriH was plus pair of spurs. The colt
bucked and Terrill clamped with his heels.
This might have done on a shaving horse
but it did not act we'll on horse colt The
evolutions of that colt would have discredit-
ed contortionist and the sequel was that
Terrill got fall from which he was uneon-
scious for some hours. 1t is very gratifying,
however, that no very serious injury was a
result, and that our young friend is now all
right. By reason of the accident, however,
be was not able to take his examinations in
The Graded School until Wednesday last.
when he was examined by Mr. Denny and
passed with distinction in every branch. We
congratulate him all around .-Advocate.

Of tie Reunion.
[From AZ LonilTlIlo Tlmel- 4


70 those who were fortunate enough
TO be present. the spectaclesof the open
ing Of the tenth Confederate Reunion
yesterday VIII long lingeT in the mind as
9 glorious and inspiring occasion. II is
one thing to read the hurried written
newspaper accounts of the vast concourse
of men in gray. met beneath the tattered
folds of the flag they fought to defend
and it's another thing to have gazed at
the imposing throng, the survivors of one
of the worlds greatest armies; it is one
thing to hear about the spontaneous out
bursts of enthusiasm and quite another
to have the heart throbbed and the ear
swelled by that great rebel yell. for four
years the triumphantcr cry of a great cause.
The Confederate reunions are peculiar
and distinctive, unlike any other national
meeting, and no assemblage within the
borders of the United States is more
picturesque than this one.
Nothing exceeds the devotion that the
Confederate pays his leader, On the
pages of American history that devotion
has its best inscription in the four-years'
record of the forces of the Confederacy;
one long, proud story of thrilling affec-
ton and loyalty to cause that was be-
iieved to he right But you get fine
demonstration of that devotion at the big
reunion meeting. 1t is fine and affecting.
No tribute could have been truer than
the one to Gordon. There have been
occasions in Louisville when mighty as
semblages paid homage tonational heroes,
but the one is veto be made that will
exceed that outburst in honor of the bat
tle-scarred leader from Georgia.
And if the others were less demonstra-
tive, they were not less sincere. White
haired Gen. Buckuer could only have
been proud and delighted, and ..Old
Tiger" CabeIl got a rouser. For Evans.
Reagan, Hickman. West and all the rest
there was tribute loud. long and hearty.
1t simply shows the remarkable devotion.
And then people ask, what was the spirit
of the Confederacy7 They don't pro
pound this question after seeing a reunion
opened.
This same devotion is not confined to
General and inferior soldier. 1t is the
same between private and private. There
was thrilling example in the Georgia
delegation. An old white-haired veteran
in suit of gray, who was setting under
the banner of Gen. Gordon's State, sud
denly esspied another white-haired man
who was in Tennessee's section. He was
on his feet in minute and headed for
his comrade, The latter saw him coming;
there was shout of greeting and they
were in each others arms, their eyes
watered with tears.
And thatrebel yell. In song and glory
of the South and wherever the proud re-
cord of the mep in gray has been borne
by the historian and the traveller that veil
is known. It-has never been described
and it never will be. 1t remains the most
unique and effective vocal demonstration
that this country has yet produced. Ere
quenters of Democratic conventions know
something=of 1t. but if they want the real
lrticle, let them go to areunion opening.

which was amputated several years ago,

We have. with pleasure, just affixed our
signature to paper handed us by Mr..
Chas. a. johnson. who is engaged IN the
preparatory work of getting up a Demo-
cratic club for service in the approaching
national campaign. Mr.. Johnson has
already an excellent list of over 100 sign
ers, and will get others. This is a move
in the right direction. We have a hard
fight before us this fall in the State and
nation. To win we must organize and
work together, and the sooner we. do this
and line up for the fray, the better. The
time and place of meeting to effect per
manent organization will be made known
shortly through the local press. Mem

Gratis, and earnest cooperation is solicited.
The following letter has Just been
issued by Mr.. w. X. Hearst, President of

Clubs, and is appropriate in connection
with the above:
To the Democratic Clubs and Societies
of the United States:
Recent events in the history of the
U nlted States point to the approaching
anniversary of the birthday of the nation
as day that should be celebrated with
special favor this year. There are those
IN the nation who seek to create the inn.
preston that the American people have
outgrown their love for the lust Dr1nci-
pies OF government expressed in the Dec.
Iaratlon of independence and are ready,
TO surrendertheirm moral leadership amono
nations in order to CRAFTY a newIy-borS
instinct for imperial power. f ountIed M, a
colonial system .
All Democratic clubs and societies are
earnestly requested to assemble on the ltb
OF July, and all patriotic citizens. regard
less of past party affiliations. are URGED IN
join with them in new pledge of fideIitv
TO the republic as the fathers made !.
Let the people of the United States ,Inite
IN their various cities. towns and VILLAGES
IN demonstration OF the confidence tI7ev
feel IN the form of government under
which the nation has grown to its present
greatness.
The danger which threatens the conn
try is real and imminent. It seems an
propr1ate, therefore, that citizens. who he
lieve that the Declaration of Independ-
ence IS not merely an academic tlocr-
ment, should meet together on this dav
and give voice to the national sentiment
that all men are created free and equal
and that there must be no subject colo.
mics under the American flag.

Recently the name of Hon. w. G.
Brown, of KingwOod, has been frequently
mentioned as the Democratic nominee
for Congress in this district. We under
stand that Mr.. Brown would like to have
the nomination and would put up "a strong
fight should the party select him as its
leader. but he will enter into no scramble
for the honor. He was the nominee for
that position a few years ago, and, while
defeated, hemade good race and greatly
endeared himself to the people of the
district. He is confdentthat the Democ-
racy will win this fall. and is willing to
do his part towards securing the-victory.
He will have many friends in every
county in the district.-Fa irmont Index.
