OF ''rhe National Magazine"
Tho work of restitution it is enor-

Yet in six days we have opened half
dozen thoroughfares across the town in
each direction. We have water turned
on in several districts where the mains

visioned the starving and clothed the

The railroad will have q temporary
bridge across west bay before this is

higher than the highest ever built.
Wharf and dock companies are prepar-

The disputed Name of the War.

The Confederate Veterans, in their
annual convention in Louisville, decid-
ed that the war of 1868 should be
known as the "war between the
states" This is the name that AleXan-
der H. Stephens favored. and it is the
one generally used by the people Of the
south in speaking of that war, the
northern people calling it the rebellion.
Strange it is that neither name Is a cor
rect definition Of the event. All know
that there was no rebellion. States that
had sovereignty could not be guilty of
rebellion. Neither was it a war be-
tween the states, but actually a war
between two governments made up of
states. Some writer's call it a civil war,
yet 1t was not a war between citizens
In their civil capacity, but, as before
said, a war between regularly organ
lied governments. There is, In fact. no
concise way of naming the conflict;
hence these misnomers. Possibly the
best title would be the simple one OF
calling 1t by the years Of its beginning
and close-namely. the war Of 1S61-5.-
