WHAT THE SOUTH FOUGHT FOR.

In his Confederate Memorial address
in this city on Friday last-May 10
the editor of the ARGUS defended the
underlying principle for which he
South f~ought-that of State sovereignty,
and while we did not give our address
to print, we are gratiied to find so able
a defender of the South as the Rich
mond Times-Dispatch taking exactly
the same position as we expressed in
that address, in its leading editorial in
its yesterdays issue, which we here
give in full:
LAS the Confederate eunion APP
proaches, public thought naturally
turns more and more to the cause for
which these veterans fought. Our de-
famers have said that we Fought for the
perpetuation of slavery. But there be
few so mean or so bold in this genera
ton to utter that libel. The whole
world now recognizes that the South
fought for a principle. 1t is no longer
a question of discussion. 1t is a fact
established. We fought tor the re-
served rights of the States, and that
doctrine are the germ and essence Of
American democracy. 1t is the doc
trine OF individual liberty and local
self-government as opposed to pater-
nalism and Capitalization. 1t involves
the right OF the individual to enjoy the
greatest liberty consistent with the
common welfare. It involves the right
nf tho roopJo 70 rowan +hnooooJrnc -
home, instead of taking orders from
Washington.
"These are trite sayings, and tami-
liarity with them seems to have bred
contempt in the minds of latter-day
Republicans, but the principles are as
true and as vital today as when they
were delivered to the saints. They are
fundamental. They lie at the founda-
ton. of our system. They are the prin-
ciples upon which the republic is bot
toned, and when they are removed the
republic Will fall.
Had the South fought for anything
less noble, the Lost Cause had per
ished at Appomattox. But it did not
perish then, nor has it persisted since.
1t is today a living cause, for principle
cannot die. The right of secession no
longer exists, but that was only one of
the many reserved rights of the States.
1t was Il thing apart from the general
scheme Of local sell -government, and
its adjustment in no way impairs
other rights reserved. The States are
as ''sovereign" now as they were be-
fore the war. The Confederate States
withdrew fromlthe Union and fought
for their independence. But they
fought under the flag of democracy,
and they have preserved the germ of
democracy until this day. The Demo-
Gratis ofthe North now understand, and
hence the cry from that quarter for the
South to take the lead in making the,
platform and nominating the candidate
for 1908. The call is clear and distinct.
Will the south hear it and take heed?"

The scene of the explosion was two

1T IS TO Be REGRETTED.

Wherever the fault lies, it is to be
regretted that the Board of City Alder
men and the Board OF Public Works
could not get together on the promised
combine of the clerkship OF their two
Boards.
1t is perfectly feasible for the duties
of these offices to be filled by one man,
thereby saving to the tax payers Of the
city the expense of maintaining two
ofices-or two officials, rather, where
one would do.
Public office is a public trust, and
the above Boards owe it to the people
the tax payers-to administer the affairs
Of the city as economically as posi-
ole The people expected these Two
offices to be combined, and the ex pecta-
ton is not only not unreasonable, but
the consolidation is feasible and right.
OF course, in making this comment
we are discussing the public question,
and individual views ori~ndividuaIs.
We might say more, but possibly there
maybe some explanations forthcoming
from last nights Executive session."
that may obviate futher criticism.

There is more Catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases put together, and
until the last few years was supposed to be In
durable. For a great many years doctors pro-
nou11ced it a local disease and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Sci
ence has proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease and therefore requires constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured
by F. J.. Cheney & Co., Toledo. Ohio, is the only
constitutional cure on the market. 1t is taken
nternally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoon
fuil. It acts directly on the blood and mucous
surfaces Of the system. They offer one hundred
dollars for any case it fails to cure. Sendf for cir
culars and testimonials.

Strong Paint.
Devoe will paint your house for half or
two-thirds or ~three-quarters your usual cost,
and wear as much longer as it costs less.
It is the strongest paint there is and take less gallons
it's strength is the reason it takes less gallons.
Less gallons to buy; less money for that, Less gal
ions to paint; less money for that. Asthe painting costs
more than the paint, SO the saving on painters wages is
more than the saving on paint itself.
Of course, strong paint wears longer than weak; that
is why Devoe wears longest.
# anyone doubts any statement above,
here's the proof:
He may pains half his job Devoe, the other half any
paint he likes. IF Devoe doesn't take less gallons and cost
less money q for the gallons and C) for putting it on, no
pay. Il it does, Dovoe is the paint that makes least first
cost.
# it doesn't wear longer, WeU give him enough to
repaint the whole job. The time may be | year or 10 or
between.
Devoe is the paint that costs least, lasts
longest, and takes best care Of the house all
the time.
