When the house of representatives
recently undertook to name a commit
tee of Its members to represent II at
the reunion of the blue and gray at
Gettysburg 1t was found that not a
veteran of the Civil war sat on the Re-
publican side Of that body. The only
Union veterans In the house, three In
number, are all Democrats, and six
veterans of the Confederate army also
ever, there are six Confederate veter:;
ans on the Democratic side and six
Union veterans on the Republican side.
AS indicating the passage of time, IL
is a remarkable fact that there are
today in congress more veterans OF
the Spanish-American war than OF the
Civil war. Nineteen members OF the
