tations from his article to emphasize our po1nt a >
70 the waning of sectional bitterness.
First. of all, says Mr.. Mabie, the New NORM
stands "for complete recognition that the va
South was as high-minded, conscientious ana dls-
interested as the Old North" and fought Tor us
ideas with a courage almost unparalleled. Second
the Old South in it's defense of States rights was
true TO the spirit of the Constitution and Cal
boun's argument, on strictly technical grounds
was unanswerable." In the third place, the New
North recognizes that the initial responsibility
for slavery is shared by both sections alike; ana
in the fourth, that the policy of Reconstruction
"was a blunder of tragic magnitude and a gross
Injustice to white and black alike"
Knowing as we do the spirit of the New South
and with this Interpretation of the spirit OF the
New North, it is not hard to believe with Mr..
Mabie that
"The day will come when statues of Lee and
Stonewall Jackson will find place in the squares
of Northern cities as types of ideal Americans,
stainless in character. heroic in self-sacrlhce. tol-
lowing duty with unshrinking loyalty and at an
immense cost; and statues will be erected In
Southern cities to Lincoln, the man OF largest ana
tenderest heart whom the great crisis brought to
the front, and the best and wisest friend OF the
South on either side the line. In his spirit, not
in that of Stevens; In the temper of Lee, not IN
that of irreconcilable partisans, are to be found
the soul of a heroic age and the prophetic lines
of the development which was to follow the bit
terness of ancient strife"

The War: It's Cost and It's Memories.

For example, it has been only a few years since
the aggregate wealth of the Southern States
reached the figures for 1850. DIR. Charles ID, NC
Iver gives us the statistics, which are approx
mately as follows:
"In 1860 the wealth of the North was $780,
600 900. and of the South $5,250,0OO,OO0.
'In 1880 the North's was about $12,OOO,OOO,OOo
the South's $3,O00,O 00, 900.
NIn 1890 the North's was $1S,0O0,OOO,OOO, the
South's about $4, 750, 100000.
at was about 1898 that the North had gone to
about $25, 600, GOO, 600, and the South had IN
creased to between $5,O00,000,000 and $6,OOO,OOO,-
O0O."
In other words, we were forty years getting
hack to where we were at the beginning OF the
And that the smallest part of the Price We paidI
it that our people should have shrunk from pay
ing any price for their convictions. Nor would we
have it otherwise than that the. result should have
been what it was. And how beautifully is this
idea of nationality brought out in last verse of
the poem which our Professor Stockard read at
Appomattox yesterday.
For if the visible effects of the war are still
before us, we have put its spirit far behind us.
As President Roosevelt said in Louisville last
week:
"Now we are one, and as a united people, we
have the right to feel the same pride in the valor
of the man who conscientiously risked his life in
the Confederate uniform, that we have in the
men who fought in the blue. And as / passed
by your ranks, oh, my friends in the gray, to-day,
and saluted the flag of our common country held
up by a man In a gray uniform, l felt that we
were one, and that we have been able to show man
kind that the greatest war of the century can be
followed by the most perfect union that any ma
nation knows"

The New North"

THE New North"
This utterance of President Roosevelts is an
other indication of the fact that we have not only
a New South, but a New North as well-a fact
which the South "does not clearly understand" as
Mr.. Hamilton Wright Mabie says in his article,
"The New North" in the April number of the
South Atlantic Quarterly. GA more radical re-
versal of feeling and opinion ON many POINTS than
that which has taken place in the North during
the last decade is hardly afforded in any other
period or section" he tells us.
Some of these changes of opinion he points out

North Carolina at ~Appomattox.

For North Carolinians the fortieth anniversary
of General Lees surrender was made memorable
by the unwilling of the Appomattox monument
to Tar Heel soldiers. 1t is greatly to be regret
ted that the inscription gave rise to some conten-
ton between Virginia and North Carolina veter-
ans. 'First at Bethel, farthest to the front at
Gettysburg and Chickamauga, and last at Apo
mattox," is probably good enough history, but
ci a7aFf fS ffs fsce Of our virginia friends + was
probably poor taste to refer to any other battle
than that the monument was especially erected to
commemorate; and then it was also poor taste for
anybody outside the State to object. Having
furnished the immortals of the war, Lee and Jack
son., Virginia can well afford to take it that there
is "glory enough to go around" and admit the JUS
tice of North Cardinals claims as to these four
battles.
A Significant Social Symptom.
The vigorous protest on the Fart of a consider
able, element of Congregationalists against the
acceptance of John D. Rockefeller's $40 $1,000 gift
to foreign missions is one of the most significant
symptoms of a public awakening to the more
glaring evils of our present Industrial system. It
will mean a long step toward reform when the
public conscience becomes so sensitive that i'll
gotten wealth cannot buy responsibility. A man
can eat only three meals a day; can wear only one
suit of clothes at a time; and. not one thing can
he take with him beyond the grave: what shall it
profit him then to crush his competitors and fat
ten on the oppression of the people if it even |
brings him no prestige among his fellows?
The appeals of his competitors could not move
him; the threats of Legislatures could not fright
en- him. exposure in the public prints did not
much disturb his calm; but the spectacle of a
great church spurning his tainted money! offer
ed for a pious cause, has stung the Standard Oil
magnate to the quick, and his representative are
at last trying to defend his methods. At last he
hears the cry of Justice, and that stern question:
How did you get that fortune ?' Are other
mems ives In 1T; are others hope and happiness |
buried in it; are others comforts sacrificed - =.
are others rights buried in it: are others, onnos

gled by it; has their growth been stunted by it;
Ter loaf, a meaner home? If so, you have failed.
millions cannot save you from the curse. "thon
hast been weighed in the balance and found
wanting"
The protest against the Rockefeller gift not
only signifies the decline of d~ollar-worship amono
us. but it means that the public conscience has
become SO aroused as to prevent the accumulation
of other fortunes by such means as John D. Rock
efeller has used.
