ALL HONOR TO THE OLD VET.

The time is not far distant when ]
the old Confederate vet will no
longer be with us. Year after year
the ranks are thinning out. Year
after ear the graves above which
the stars and bars float on memorial
day are growing in number. Year
after year finds the hairs of the
survivors of the day of eivil strife
whittier, their forms more bent,
their stride Less active. Death
sweeps a broader swath through
their camps, their reunions are
more thinly attended, the old
familiar faces pass away forever.
The days of the old vet. are mum
bered. Soon he will be but pre-
cious memory of deathless herOism,
of unsullied patriotism, of uncon
querable love of State, and ofl
answering devotion to princip g.
1t is well that one day in the
year we should cease the ordinary
activities OF life to do honor to the
living and the dead. 1t is well that
on this day we should have brought
home to us with impressive cere-
monies and forceful eloquence
their cause and their deeds. With
every recurring memorial day the
glorious heritage of the South
is revived, the patriotism of its
sons and daughters is intensified,
the generation that is coming on
learns the lessons of the past by
the graves of it fathers and grand
fathers. The world is made to
know that the countless thousands
who sleep beneath the soil they
consecrated with their blood and
fearless yalor have not died in
vain.
All honor to the old soldier who
forty years ago wore the gray and
never brought dishonor to his
uniform or colors. Many years
will not pass before the tattoo will
beat for the last of the gallant
hosts that followed the matchless
leaders of the South and knew no
fear. In honoring them the South
hOnors itself. The world honors it
for its reverence for and devotion
to the men who for four years
faced death beneath its banners.
One of the brightest pages of its
history will be that on which will
be inscribed the story of the love
that inspired the organization and
work of the Ladies Memorial
Society. The spirit of their sires,
burning within their breasts, lead
the noble women of Georgia in the
Inauguration of this work of re-
membrance. As long as that spirit
lasts the world will ever know
that "honOr decks the turf that
wraps the clay' Of the old Confed-
crate yet.

THE STRONGEST CANDIDATE.

Bryan Is the strongest candidate
the Democratic party can put up
next year, as the situation now
presents itself, He will, in all
probability, be the candidate.
And he will also, in all human
probability, be defeated again, for
the third time, aud for the last
time.
There is rot the slightest evil
dence that there has been any
change of heart in the north and
west, no indication that the public
is any less satisfied with republi.
can control, or that it will revolt
at the polls against continued
domination by Roosevelt, or Roose-
velt's favorite, along lines laid
down by Roosevelt.
Somehow we agree with the
views advanced by the BROOKLYN
Eagle, which, in considering the
political outlook for 1905. saws:
Who is the strongest candidates
Mr.. Bryan will not answer this
question mOdesty would forbid
There is no reason, however. whvI
the Eagle or any other newspaper
should stand on any such cere-
mony. Mr.. Bryan is right. He
is perfectly right. He is beyond
all comparison the strongest
Events haveplayed into his hands
ever since the president began to
harry and harrass and irritate the
corporations. Indeed, they havel
enabled him to say that he. as i'll
were, sOwed the seeds while the
president reaped the harvest
They have enabled him to saw that
he saw into the future, that he
was further ahead of time than
any body else, and that Roosevelt |
as the imam of the hour is sort oil
usurper. Finally, beyond all per. |
adventure of doubt, thew have |
made him the logical candidate OIL
the party.
Of course another defeat may be
added to the Nebraskan's LIST
No matter what be the outcome off
his third contest for the presi- |
dency, it is certain that he will poll
more votes than would be cast for |
any other nominee. And because
this is obvious, that the party
will not go further, if it could. and
could not if it would, he will
be its nominee. i

A labor leader is not immune from

labor leaders of the Channel
