TIE Soldier Dead

Hallowed by a supreme sanctity are the
graves Of the soldier dead. So 1t was in The
days of the ancient races, and so 1t will be
when the last war has been fought and the
battle-f1ags are forever furled. Those who
have offered themselves as a sacrifice for their
flag and their country, who have endured the
hardships of camp and march, or who have
fallen in the red carnage of battle, have a Pc
culiar claim upon the gratitude and affection
of succeeding generations.
In no land has this claim been more freely
recognized than In our own; and no people was
ever before so generous in its tributes to its
fallen heroes, or in its treatment of those who
came home from its wars. When returning
springtime brings the flowers, in all their eIo-
quent beauty and symbolism, we celebrate a
Memorial day which is Characteristic of the
spirit Of the republic.
1t is now an even half-century since the be-
ginning Of the stupendous conflict for the
preservation Of the Union, and the anniversary
is bringing home with renewed emphasis the
sacrifices and the significance Of those dark
days. Happily, it brings also a greater appre-
citation of the complete reunion of the severed
sections, and of the peace and prosperity
which bless the land.
Before General Logan wrote the order, in
1868, which was the beginning of the popular
and official dedication of May 80 to the patriot
dead, a tender impulse of womanhood IN the
stricken south had begun the beautiful custom
of strewing with blossoms the passionless
mounds above those who had fallen In the
passion of battle.
The usage and the associations of years
have consecrated the day above our other holt
days. Upon it there glGams a glory which
lightens the past, and which shows US that the
blood and the tears were not shed In vain.
and that the fruition of the sacrifice ~iustities
the seed which was sown.
