The Reunion

On the morning Of Sept. 10th
a lot of US old Confeds and a
goodly number of citizens took
the early Okolona train to attend
the County Reunion Of Old
Soldiers at Houston. In due
time we arrived and found
the town full Of the honest
yeomanery Of the country that
had come to pay their respects
to those who in their youth
heard the bugle blast Of liberty
as it sounded through the hills
and valleys of our Sunny South
land, calling to arms those who
would lay down their lives to
drive back the invading foe.
DR.. Ward, of Winona, was the
orator Of the day. Tall, stately
and graceful, with white vest,
Prince Albert Coat, long gray
beard and hair he was the en-
bodiment of all that it takes to
make ''Mississippi's Grand old
man., so years old, in full pos
session of all his faculties, his
mind stored with "reminiscences
of that eyentful period in which
he took an active part as Brigade
Surgeon in the Virginia army.
For two hours he stood before
that audience and related Incl
dents that came under his
observation, all going to show
that the Confederate soldier
was the greatest fighting ma
chine that the world ever pro
duced. He rose to the high
water mark when he undertook
to give the reas MS. First he
had the pure unmiEed Anglo
Saxon blood coursing in his
veins and good blood always
gives a good account of Itself
any where, every where and
under the most trying circum-
stances. Second his country was
invaded by an insolent foe, and
this aroused all the fire in his
nature and increased his efficien-
cy ten fold. Third he was right.
He fought for states rights, the
great balance wheel between the
states and the general govern
ment and gave it a baptism OF
blood, that will fix it's place III
our country for coming centuries.
He showed that the United
States had something over 5 1000,
eco enlisted during the four
years, while the South had only
600, eco. The North had about
IS states all foreign nations to
recruit from, also over 100, Gee
negroes from our plantations.
This gives a startling idea of the
colossal task undertaken by the
South, and is a proof Of their
galIantry as soldiers that eclip-
ses a0ythinG IN ancient or mod
crn s,.r2.

payment or had any knowledge Of any
payment OF Judge jackson to retire
from the bench; and denies that he
had seen Judge Jackson for many
months prior to his retirement or
that he ever directly or indirectly
discussed such resignation with him
He denies that the investigation Of
Judge JacksOns conduct was inveSti-
gated solely by the direction Of Theo-
dOre Roosevelt, who was then pres
dent. He files with this answer a
letter from former President Roose-
welt stating that he had instituted the
investigation; that Judge Dayton had
nothing to do with it and that he had
appointed Mr. Dayton Judge without
solicitation from anybody
Does Not Favor g. G. O.
Judge Dayton says it is absolutely
untrue that he has shown marked
favoritism to the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad company. He says his only
been as local attorney for Barbour
county from the time the Grafton
and Greenbrier road was aQuired by
the b. & O. till he went upon the
bench and the only compensation he
| ever received was an annual pass
| over the road. He says Fred O. Blue
! In al Il
Arthur Dayton became Blues partner.
When Blue became state tax com
missioner, Arthur looked after the
legal work for the firm. Arthur Day
| ton has appeared just four times as
counsel in defense Of the b. & O. IN
lis court, says Judge Dayton. In one
| case the company confessed Judgment
and two others are still pending. The
| other is the West case mentioned in
| the charges. Judge Dayton denies IS
| absolutely false and untrue" the
! trivial and silly charge" that he took
q written opinion from his pocket in
| this case, which had been prepared
| in the joint Office Of himself and his
sen. He denies that they have a joint
| office. The statement that he left the
| bench and assisted his son in the
| CT Oss examination Of witnesses he
! charactizes as silly and absurd. He
| files with his answer an affidavit from
| the court stenographer that he had
| asked just three questions from the
| bench, all relating to location and
| conditions existing at the point Of the
| accident which was the basis Of the
suit He says J. w. NandervOrt OF
! Park ersburg, has represented the b
& O. as counsel during all the time
he has been on the bench, and that
V. b. Archer, Of Parkersburg, has
| represented the other side in most Of
the 3. & O. cases. Ahidavits Of Van
dervort and Archer and a letter from
J. II. Strickling are filed as part OF
his answer.
! Didn't Direct Verdict.
Judge Dayton calls simply ridicul
Gus" the charge that he improperly IL
rected verdict against the B. IL o.
! in the White case in order that his
son might reverse him and the com
pany secure compromise. He says
the case illustrates the petty malice
that inspired the proceedings. He as
serts that Arthur S. Dayton was not
counsel in thu case till after it was
appealed from his court.
Those Petitions.
Denial is made that twenty peti'
tions Of the government against the

WASHINGTON, June 22-SpcciGc
denial OF every charge, as well as n
general denial Of all charges, against
him in the impeachment proceeding
recently instituted in the House is
made by Judge Aston G.. Dayton in
statement filed by him with the
House judiciary committee. The com
mittee has postponed further consider
alton Of the Impeachment resolution
until the return Of Congressman
Nicely, who impeached Judge Dayton,
which is expected within a few days.
So far, the resolution directing the
judiciary committee to investigate
adopted, but is with the judiciary
committee for report as to whether
it. should be adopted or not Upon
the return Of Mr.. Nicely he will ap-
pear before the committee and tell
the members what it is expected to
prove in connection with the i'm
pcrtClliiiellL. lio cOHEllllec Will take
the statement of Mr.. Nicely in connec-
ton with the charges and the answer
Of Judge Dayton and will then deter
mine whether to recommend the adop-
ton Of the Impeachment resolution
or not. If it is adopted the committee
will then proceed to investigate If it
IS not adopted, the case will end.
Attorney BeIcher Talks.
In connection with the case, state
ments have been published purporting
to be interviews with Judge Dayton
to the effect that he believes the pro
ceedings against him have been in
stigated by the bartenders and saloon
keepers of the state in retaliation for
the active part played by him bring
ing about statewide prohibition. 70
ney for the labor leaders who kept
at it till they had the impeachment
proceedings started, stated to the
writer that he had never discussed
the Dayton Impeachment with amy
liquor dealer or representative OF
liquor interests at any time, SO far
as he knows; that he does not now
represent and has not at any time
represented any liquor interest in any
capacity, except for one or two trivial
local cases which he had several
years ago In court in Charleston, and
that he withdrew as counsel in these
cases after having them in charge q
short time
Prepares His Answer.
Seeing charges against him in a
labor paper at Wheeling some time
ago, Judge Dayton prepared then q
series Of answers to the charges
Later he found the charges had been
changed before they were presented
to the Congress, and he added sup
Elemental answer In this he says
"In defense of my honor and reputa
ton, I expect to take up and refute
these charges as often as they appear
and in as many forms as they appear
and to this end this supplemental
statement is made"
Never Employed Detectives.
In regard to the charge that he con
spired to get Judge Jackson off the
bench so he could succeed him, Judge
Dayton says that the bill providing for
the retirement Of federal judges was
passed when he was II years old ana
more than quarter Of Il century DE-
fore he entered congress; that 1T was
amended four years after his confir-
