Humbug of History

AdlSu CduSIS
Humbug of History
The Daughters of the Confederacy
divided on the question of raising
100000 to endow chair of South
ern history in the Peabody institute.
AS we understand there was no OPP
position to it on principle, the objec-
lions being based on the fact that the
order had recently raised so much
for monuments that it was not now
in condition to raise this sum for
the endowment of a professorship.
We would like very much to see
history truthfully told, and told with
proper sense of proportion, but We
have no hope of seeing it so told.
There was a time years ago when
those who loved the Southern Con-
federacy were in the habit of eX-
pressing their reliance of the justice
of history. There is no such thing,
and there never was.
History is written to please the
majority of readers. Selling books
is much more important with pub
fishers, and even with authors. than
telling the truth in their pages. If
a historian confines himself to truth
and observes the proper proportions
of events, his book will be scarcely
ever opened if it does not conform
to the idea Of telling what the great
est number of people want to hear
The South is rich is history, but
even the Southern people ignore the
fact while searching for trivialities
in Northern history. Even in the
South the landing of the Pilgrims is
magnified far above the settlement of
Virginia, which occurred thirteen
New England are credited with be-
ing the champions of freedom of con-
science, though they sometimes cut
out the tongues or burned the men
whose consciences differed from
theirs, while the real freedom of con-
science and broad liberation that
marked the settlement of Maryland
is ignored. Southern boys know all
about the Boston tea party, where a
number of men disguised as Indians
threw taxed tea overheard in Boston
harbOr, but few of them know that
North Carolinians, without any eff
forts to conceal their identity, went
to the royal governor of the colony
and forced him to forbid the landing
of the taxed stamps. The manly men
who openly resisted the demands Of
Great Britain are forgotten, while
the disguised midnight marauders
who initiated them several years
later without initiating their bold
ness are remembered.
Florida pupils are asked to tell
who accompanied the messenger who
went out to warn the settlers of the
movement Of troops near Boston,
while they are not reminded of the
fact that the first declaration of indie
pendence was promulgated by a
gathering of North Carolina farmers.
We are all called on to pay tribute
to Fulton, the inventor Of the steam
boat, though Longstreet was running
a steamboat in the Savannah river
before Fulton's boat ever navigated
the Hudson, and very few know that
the Savannah boat was the first
steamer that ever crossed the ocean.
We talk about the battle between
the Merrimack and the Monitor, and
the majority of our readers will think
us unaccountably ignorant when We
say there was never any boat named
the Merrimack in the Confederacy
service.
History? Bosh. Even the history
We ourselves teach discriminates
against us.
