THE LEGACY OF CONFLICT.
Bv Theodore ROOSEVELT.


The captains and the armies who, at
ter long years Of dreary campaigning
and bloody, stubborn fighting. brought
to a close the civil al have left us
even more thar a reunited realm. The
material effect of what they did is
shown in the fact that the same flag
flies from the Great Lakes to the Rio
Grande. and all the people of the Uni
ted States are richer because they are
one people and not many, because they
belong to one great nation. and not to a
contemplate knot Of struggling nation
alities.
But besides this. besides the material
results of the civil war. We are all,
north and south, intellectually richer for
it's memories. We are the richer for
each grim campaign. for each hard
fought battle. We are richer for
valor displayed alike by those who
fought so valiantly for the right, and
by those who. no less valiantly. fought
for what they deemed the right. We
have In US nobler capacities for what
Is great and good because Of the In.
finite woe and suffering, and because
Of. the splendid ultimate triumph.

THE GRAVES OF OUR DEAD.

us like a dream. Again we are in the
great struggle: We hear the sounds of

drums-the silver voices of heroic
bugles. We near the appeals Of ora

and the flushed faces of men; we see
all the dead whose dus We have GOV

them no more. We are with them
when they enlist in the great army of

We see them as they march proud

men become iron with nerves of steel.
We are at home when the news reaches
us that they are dead. We see the

Decoration Day Address
nnonymo

Blessed are the dead whose memory
is perpetuated by the flower service OF
a grateful people. How truly immor-
tai are those who give their lives for
liberty. To have lived long, purpose
less. neutral years.. Is nothing-to have
lived a few glorious hours. to- have
bravely faced the infinite. to have
calmly met the Master in humanity's
cause, is sublime. Why mourn these
dead of ours?A They sleep in the bosom
Of the land they loved. Here where the
ground once shook beneath the tramp
Of contending hosts they are at rest.
The sentinels no longer patrol the
banks of the Potomac, Grant n Lee
both lived to attest the goodness or a
God who preserved the union And
over the river, on the beauteous dome
of the nations capitol. serenity uplifted
toward the ethereal blue. kissed by the
sun Of day, wooed by the stars OF
night, TRANQUILITY floats the uncon-
quered flag Of the greatest nation of
the earth.
Why mourn for those who slumber
here? Their epitaphs are written In
the grandest history of the ages. Be
fore them will 'reverently pass the pro-
cession Of the centuries. And every
headstone roundabout, even those with
out a name, will be given honorable
place in h mighty movement that is
to commemorate the %ennobling and up
lifting of the human race.
1t is a day of memories, a day when
we meet in the hallowed past and hold
communion with u holy dead. A day
when we recall the glorious aspirations
which thrilled mems souls in that he
roic time, when to love ones country
was to lay down n life: a day filled
with that same spirit of freedom. pa
triotism, and devotion which breathed
into tho onrnnoOrn N,ruf nf ordinary hN-
manity the sublime inspiration Of he
roic deeds; a day when we rekindle the
fires of patriotism on h altar of our
liberties and once dead in the years
gone by consecrated with their hearts
blood.
Glorious are the dead who die for lib
erty. Blessed are they whose blood is
men. The great conflict in which our
dead fought was, in the beginning, a
contest between men, between sections.
1t was the union against the confeder-
acy. But 1t Is evident that over and
above the purposes of men was Gods
purpose. He would not permit the
government Of the United States to re-
main under q constitution that sane
toned human slavery. He would not
give victory to the union arms until
with 1t would come liberty to a race in
chains. The careful student of the war
of the rebellion has no difficulty in
seeing that up to the time of the eman-
cipation proclamation the doubtful
tide Of battle set most strongly against
the union shore. Disaster had followed
disaster until Lincoln himself almost
%despaired Of ultimate victory; until 1t
seemed as If the exulting southern
hosts were about to make good their
boasts Of proclaiming the confederate
government from the steps of the ma
tion's capitol. But from the hour of
emancipation, from the hour in which
the cause of the union became the
cause of liberty. from the hour in
which the flag Of the republic became
the flag OF humanity, from the hour In
