gestion that it is written in spirit of
friendliness to the North, Mrs, Long
street was born in the American Union
after the Confederate struggle had be-
come the ''Lost Cause" of American
history. She evidently has never
known what it was to hate anything
American. 1t was high patriotism,
worthy of the opening days of new
century. that prompted young woman
of the new South to invite a valorous
Union officer to write the Introduction
to the biography Of dead adversary,
The opening words of General Sickles
introduction to "Lee and Longstreet
at High Tide" happily silence all crit.
cism:
"If it be thought strange that 1
should write preface to the memoir of
conspicuous adversary, reply that
the civil war is only memory, its as
perities are forgotten, both armies were
American, old army friendships have
been renewed, add new army friend
ships have been formed among the COM
batants, the truth of history~is dear to
all of us and the amenities of chivalrous
manhood are cherished alike by the
North and South, when justice to either
is involved"
sickles is one of the most famous of
the surviving Union officers of the civil
war. He has been prominent in Demo-
ocratic politics in New York since the
war, and has suffered much in conse.

The South will not fall out with Mrs.
Longstreet for defending the great
name she bears, now that the stout
warrior is dead and cannot answer his
accusers; magnanimous people will
honor her for it.-Exchange.
