A TRIBUTE TO JACKSON.

To The Weekly Jeffersonian:
With your permission, all esti-
mates of Southern values in the late
war should include and center around
the one great genius, the "Stone-
wall" of the Southern Confederacy
one who stood prominently forth
as the Amounted leader of far-flung
battle lines. And deny it who may,
in his loss Deaths imprimatur set
the stern fms to the f1uttering hopes
of his well-beloved Southland.
You eulogize, and rightly, the
Soothern private his fig, ting morale
has never been equalled. He set the
pace in every battle of the war.
But whose was the hand that shap-
ed the plastic clay to soldierly per-
fectibility? Whose the leadership
that inspired him to deathless hero
ism? Jackson's.
His mintage of victory stands, a

Dear Friend:-Thank God, we
have one man down in Dixie who
strikes back whenever there is
brought any reproach on us Southern
people. Thank God for Thomas e.
Watson, our Tom, as we call him in
the 10th district. I glory in your
spunk, would to God we had more
editors of papers down South that
would fire back at insinuations
thrown out by scalawags against the
South. I venture to say that every
Confederate soldier indorses your
sentiments. Don't you know there is
an element down South now that
will fall on their knees and kiss the

BRO. TODD, LIKE A SOLDIER,
HARD TO WHIP.

Hon. Tom Watson:-I am touch
ous' when it comes to assailing any
Confederate soldier. You say you
will never assail or offend one, then
was not "Old lube" as much a Con-
federate soldier as his men were?
Now as to generalship-
Problem:-
Given: Phil Sheridan and 200 to
10000 men pitted in the Valley of
Virginia against J. A. Early, with
10000, even with Early's men COM
posed Of Dutch" niggers, and few
'blue-bellies, which would have
proved the greater general? Early
captured as many of Sheridans can
non at Cedar Greek as Sheridan ever
took of his. Gen. Gordon told the
writer in person the story of Cedar
Greek. 1t is true Gen. Early refused
to restrain Or stop his men from
feasting on the good things they had
captured, including whiskey, cham
paign, etc., and Gen. Gordon begged
him to do so, and to press the pur-
suit, but that only showed Early's
confidence in his army and fearless
ness of the army of Sheridan. The
latter brought up by forced march
enough fresh troops to beat back
Gordon's and Early's disorganized
forces and recover their looted
camps-that's all.
If you will read Gen. Wade Hamp-
toms Preface to Percy Gregg's his
tory, and the efforts the North made
to have the edition suppressed and
destroyed, you will not couple it
with Northern" writer's any more.
You are writer of history, and
all want is that you don't compare
any Confederate general or soldier to
w. J. Bryan-you ought to ''take it
back"
AS an old soldier of Hoods Texas
brigade in Virginia, 1 might abuse
Joe Johnson, but / won't. love
them both. | love even Pemberton,
who gave up Vicksburg not to Grant,
but to Gen. Starvation.
GEO. T. TODD.
Jefferson, Tex, August IA, 1909.
P. S.-The knife came, and it's a
good one. | prize it highly and your
picture on it. My friends all want to
borrow it-but it's not "for loan"

Who dreams of that lonely Vir-

Early and Sheridan may we'll be

Respectfully,
A KENTUCKIAN.
BroOkline, Mass, August 10, 1909.
In the weekly Jeffersonian of Au-
gust 9Th you say the West Point ira
dition put an inferior man over Cor
don. Correct. And you say that if
Gen. Lee could have freed himself
from that fetter and given the valley
campaign into the care of Gordon it's
results would have been very differ
ent. This all important matter did
not rest with Gen. Lee. Agt. Gen.
Cooper made the detachment and
designated the commander.
Gen. Lee was indelibly impressed
with Gordon's military ability in the
Wilderness battle on the 9Th of May.
The 18th of May overwhelmingly
convinced Gen. Lee that Gen. Cor
don was eminently qualified for any
position in the Confederate service.
After it was too late the Confederate
Congress made Gen. Lee Commander
in-Chief of the Confederate forces.
He at once removed Gen. Early and
gave Gen. Gordon his command.
Yours truly,
