THE PARADE.
The parade of veterans on We'd
nesday afternoon was truly IL remark
able scene. 1t was truly inspiring
sight, one that could only be sean in
the Southland, where the Confederate
Veteran is held in the highest regard
and deepest reverence. 1t showed
how thoroughly the old soldier of the
sixties holds the hearts of the multi.
tudes. There was parade here, a
parade in which the Confederate
Veterans were the central figures and
held the place Of honor. 1t had
rained on and off during the day; the
streets were muddy and slushy, but
the old and totterlng veterans, ever
faithful to the call, formed in line
and marched through Columbia's
streets 1t WAS brave effort, but
those who stood the trail won the
plaudits Of tho thousands who waited
their coming along Main street aud
upon the State House gounds. There
were the Sons of Veterans in line, who
wore the kaki uniforms Of the regular
army, and they made up the ranks of
the three companies that acted as
escort Then there were tho officers
and marshals on horseback ana in car
riages and the charming sponsors Of
the veterans More than three hun
dred school children, in Confederate
colors, we're in line, and, with Super
intendent Dreher at the head Of the
column, through the muddy streets
dren, each bearing basket from
which flowers we're strewn along the
last part of the route, and for more
than block the gallant old soldiers
marched over bed of roses. Was it
not indeed Il picture? The old sol
diers were deeply affected. There
we're from 1900 to 1000 veterans,
who formed in twos to make the
march and it WAS a glorious march
for them. Along the entire route
were crowded people who waved
their hands and hurrahed until they
were hoarse in their applaudits. 1t
il not an easy task for the soldier of
the COS to take snch a march, but it
must have had its compensation this
afternoon.
AS soon az the parade reached the
State House Governor Hey ward was
introduced, and stan,;ing in the rain,
he made an address Of great force and
eloquence.

THE CONFEDERATE REUNION.
Columbia Warmly Welcomes the Old
Veterans, Who Have a Glorious Tine
Within Her Gates.

Within Her Gates.
The following is condensed from
the reports of Col. August Kohn, the
Columbia correspondent Of The News
and Courier:
The gallant veterans Of the South
Carolina Division, u. Q. ", have
once more marched to their Capital
City.
In behalf of South Carolina Co.
lumbia gladly and proudly welcomed
these defenders of Southern rights.
For their sakes and in memory of
their deeds her gates were opened
wide and warm was the welcome that
came from the hearts of people.
The stars and bars were seen from
tho tops Of houses, from windows, on
vehicles and, best of all, they we're
waving iii the hands of the fair
daughters of South Carolina. Pic
lures Of jackson, Hampton and Lee
were seen, always surrounded by the
battle flags Of the Southern Confed-
eracy.
Secretary of State CAN'T had the
State House decorated and Governor
Hayward had his Office floating the
stars and bars and the Palmetto
flag. The Governors mansion was
draped in these patriotic colors.
They clung, with loving pride,
around the marble monument to the
Confederate soldier in front of the
capitol, and, flower laden and heau-
tiful, they rested upon the old war
cannon that stand silent and solitary
around this monument.
The notes Of the bugle and the
drum were heard again and the band
played "Dixie" and the "Bonnie Blue
Flag" Electric lights in red and
white lined the sides Of the streets
and overarched it at regular inter-
walls. And peace was in the air,
while the birds sang and the breezes
blew softly for those fiery spirits
whose valor gave the doom of battle
in the bloody arbitrsment of war.
The tents on the State House
grounds we're vivid reminders of the
old fighting days. Adj. Gen. Frost
was busy preparing this camp for the
old Veterans, knowing that they
would like these resting places. The
large tent held over 200 soldiers and
the numerous small tents made things
look regimental here.
THE FIRST DAY.
The veterans came in the first day
i'll large numbers. Every train on
Monday night brought squads and
companies and on Tuesday, the first
and opening day of the reunion, the

is SO much easier to talk reciprocity

all anxious to trade something we

there seems to he disposition with

to trade for it at anybody's expense

seen that if care is not taken that
reciprocity can be made a stumbling
block for the republican party instead
of an aid to it 1t can also be made a
stumbling block to protection instead
of an auxiliary. A learned discussion

THE IOWA IDEA,

--Vintcn Eagle: Gov. Cummins
says the term Iowa idea" should not
be used and we can all agree with
him. 1t is a pity he did not denounce
the busy Wellman at the time of his
interview with the governor at Des
Moines and not wait till he delivered
his address atOmaha. Wellman was try
ing to find stuff for his paper, the
Record-Herald, and he thought the
governor held adverse views to those
of his party and it would be a splendid
opportunity to spring surprise. AS
a result the whole gamut OF tariff be-
came involved and it caused good
deal of distraction in the party. We
are glad the governor has set himself
right on this matter. He has previ-
ously repudiated Wellmans interview.
So far as the new idea that is now be-
ing presented by Senator Funk of the
Spirit Lake Beacon is concerned that
can be taken up later by the State
convention. Funk's desire is for a
broader reciprocity. In this matter
the party should ne guided largely by
by the desires of Senator Allison. 1t
may be well enough to discuss the
matter in the party press but it is USE
less to place it in a plank of the, plat
form unless there is a reasonable
chance for success. Some people are
very DESTROYS of being in advance OF
public sentiment and others want to
drive" our representatives and sena-
tors and easily convince themselves
that our senators and representatives
are likely to get too conservative and
1t is best to do little driving" The
senators and representatives of no sim
