The NIarr NIOnument.

There was unveiled at Fairfax Court
house today a monument to Captain
John Quincy Mari, the first Confederate
soldier to fall in actual combat in the
civil war. The date of Captain Mars
death was June /, 1861, and the spot
where he fell was only few yards from
the courthouse green, upon which the
monument has been erected. he was
captain of the Warrenton Rifles, which
company he organized in 1850. 1t was
as captain Of this company that he enter
ed the Confederate army His company
of one hundred men was ordered to Fair
fax courthouse to strengthen its some
what meague defense, on May 81, 1861.
About o'clock next morning the rifle
men were aroused by the news of the APP
proach of the enemy's cavalry. They
formed at once and their captain led
them to a commanding position near the
courthouse. Soon after he had called
them to halt a body of cavalry rushed
upon them and firing was begun. TWAS
pitch dark and no one saw their leader
fall. but his ''Halt p was the last word
he was ever heard to utte7. In the
meantime the rifemen were reinforced
by Colonel r. S. Ewell, who was COM
mandant of the post. Led by him the
riAemen thrice repulsed the enemy and
finally drove them of, leaving two
prisoners behind them. When daylight
dawued Captain Mari was the only
Confederate missing, and he was dis
covered lying in the long grass with a
bullet through his heart. The Federal
loss was estimated at thirty.
The monument which the Virginians
of Fairfax unveiled on their courthouse
green on the anniversary OF Captain
Mars death is a rough hewn shalt OF
Richmond gray granite, weighing SIX
tons, nine feet high and four feet wide
at its base. On the square space pol
ished upon its front surface IS the fol-
lowing inscription:
"This marks the scene of the opening
conflict of the war of 1863. In 1t

crate soldier killed in action, fell June
/, 1861.

WHAT MAKES THE SOUTH SOLID

Why isEthe south still solid? Golfers
Weekly, New York publication gives
this reason: "That the South is solid
and that the nt1-Republican feeling
is stronger than when Mckinley died,
are conditions easily understood and
sympaihized with by Northerners who
have sufficient Imagination to project
themselves out of their own environ
ment No wonder there is but one
issue, and no wonder the Sou h can
not vote for the party of reconstruction
outrages, force bllls, bloody shirts and
negro EXPEDITION. Who is gong to
consider tariff problems when his wife
and daughter are in danger? Who is
going to put currency and Imperialism
ahead of the survival of his own race?
The Republican party earned glory by
freeing the slaves and giving the final
answer to a d1srupting ques ion II
deserves obloquy for the narrowness,
tacklessness and political chicanery
with which it has handled the negroes
and the Southerners ever since"
This is a Northern, not Southern
criticism.
