Though he was a strong Union man

Though he was a strong Union man,
Troup County unanimously sent him to
the State convention that adopted the
ordinance OF secession over his solemn
warning; but when war came Ben Hill
was the Southern Cato. We fondly call
ed Allen G. Thurman The Old Roman"
but the most Roman of all American
statesmen was Benjamin Harvey Hill. He
never despaired. and he was the reminder
of hat Roman Senate that exposed to
sale the land on which the victorious army
OF Hannibal was encamped. In the Con
federate Senate he was the champion of
Jefferson Davis, and it is praise enough 10
say that he SUCCESSFULLY sustained and re-
turned the assaults Will am l.. Yancey and
Louis T. Wigfall made against the admin
istration.

These things prevented his election to
the United States Senate for the term be
ginning in 1873. He was refused the nomi-
nation for Congress III 1874, but the man
who was preferred to him died after elec-
ton, and a convention was held to nomi-
nate his successor. The two-thirds rule
prevailed. Hills friends were in the min
GRITTY, but they refused to abandon him.
The issue was referred to the people, and
Hill was elected. In December. 1915, he
took his seat III the Forty-fourth Con
gress. He was now ~fifty-two years old,
the first lawyer and the first orator OF
the South.

In 1857 the Democrats nominated Joe
Brown for Governor and the Wings nomi-
mated Hill. They who heard them on the
stump saw II Hill the Montrose who
fought the battles of giants at the head
of Highland clans, and when reconstruc-
ton came there were those who thought
they saw in Brown the Scot who sold his
master for q goat. Hill was the lion,
Brown the fox. Had Hill been an as
sassin. the dagger would have been his
weapon; Brown would have employed the
cup. Hill was a pronounced Union man;
Brown was an avOwed secessionist
Georgia was Democratic, but Hill greatly
reduced the majority. He was then but
thirty-four years of age and the most
interesting figure in Georgia. When
secession came and he and Stephens strove
against it, but they were then and ever
after bitter personal enemies. If all the
South had hearkened to these two men
what al iliad OF woes would she have
avoided.

Stephens positively hated him. Hill
was a fighter, and hat best OF fighters, an
aggressive one. Secure in Gibraltar, he
would have scOrned to receive attack,
but would have sailed from his fortress

Davis all Douglas was to Bruce.
Perhaps it was a discussion of the
Kansas-Nebraska bill that was the youth
ful Hills first meeting with the veteran
Stephens. Both had been Wings and
Hill was yet a Wing. Stephens was for
the Kansas-Nebraska legislation, and Hill
opposed it. Both were Southern to the
marrow and both pro-slavery IN sentiment.
1t was a battle Of the giants, and there
were not two opinions as to whom was
the victor, and Stephens confirmed that
opinion by his loss of temper. He was
~ovelmatched, and in revenge he
Not only hated David, bat the King.
So exaspcrated was Stephens that he
engaged III a correspondence with Hill
that he intended should lead to q hostile
meeting, and, indeed, he did send a chal

code was the higher law From the east

The code was repealed at the North be

abolished it at the South. He was a very
brave man who would refuse a challenge
in Georgia the year 1856, and he was an
extraordinary man whom such refusal
would not utterly and forever undo, but
Hill was a brave man and an extraordi-
nary man. In reply to Stephens he said
he was a member of the Christian
Church and no hypocrite, and had no dis
position to appear before his Maker with
blood on his hands that he had deliber-
ately shed: that he had a wife and child
rem to shield, protect, and support, and
4 conscience to guard from remorse, while
Stephens had neither family nor con
science, and the contest being thus un-
equal, he declined to engage in it.
Stephens then posted him as a ~braggart,
a liar, and a poltrcon. He replied in a
scorching letter, and his inVective was as
fierce as his ridicule had been irresistible
he closed with these significant words:

There are at least two objections to this

first place, Mr.. Clague does not deserve to

GARDENERS WILL SLEEP
They Wont Make Sales Before
a. M. Market Season Opens
Saturday.

+
Minneapolis market gardeners have tired
of emulating the early bird and hereafter
will get enough sleep to keep them from
growing hollow eyed. For the past few
seasons there has been a tendency toward
earlier morning hours. Big buyers came
early when there was any shortage of
garden truck and the lucky hucksters who
had supplies got into the habit of racing
to market because they could sell out
ahead of the other fellow. AS a result,
last summer the days selling began some
times as early as a. M, and the man
who came in with his green goods after
IS o'clock found the market slow or fully
supplied.
This year the gardeners have agreed
that selling shall not begin before a. m.
and in accordance with their request Mar
ket Master r. H. Adams has issued notice
that market court, will not be open for
wagons before that hour. Sales will also
cease at p. m. The Central Market sea-
son will open next Saturday.
