ministers to those who need treatment

fact that besides 434 Methodists and a

DENEEN TAKES
SOUTH To TASK
Illinois Governor Says thine
Can Not Excuse Cruelty at
AnderSonviIIe."

ANDERSONVILLE. GA, Dec. 21.-
Governor Charles r. Deneen, of Illinois
in his address here at the dedication
OF the monument to Illinois heroes Of
the Civil war who were prisoners at
Andersonville, declared that even the
passage Of time could not excuse the
cruelty which was melted out to pris-
oners at Andersonville."
1T is true" said Governor Deneen.
that the conditions in the South were
of such a character as might excuse
the inhiction of much hardship on pris-
oners Of war The troops under Cen
'eral Lee were suffering for lack of food.
and IT could hardly be expected that
Northern soldiers in Southern military
prisons would receive better treatment
than Southern soldiers in the field. But
though much might be excused on the
ground Of dire necessity. there can bd
no excuse or justification for the de-
liberate cruelty which of set purpose
was meted out to the prisoners con-
fined at Andersonville."
Message of Good viii.
Governor Deneen received the
following telegram from Mrs. Walter d.
Lamar, of Macon, state president OF
the Georgia United Daughters of the
Confederacy:
Greetings from the United Daugh-
ters Of the Contederacy of Georgia, who
rejoice that the god of battles has be-
