confederate General lauded ii
Speech by Attorney Louis
A. Johnson.

Hish tribute was paid to General
Thomas Jonathan (".stonewall'O Jack
son by Attorney Louis A. johnson IN
speech before the state convention
Of the United Daughters Of the Con
federacy here. Mr.. Johnson said:
Men who are honest and brave have
nothing to be ashamed Of and moth
ing to conceal; and the better they
know each other, the more will they
be drawn together by the mutual at
traction Of noble characters. The great
warriors who in the sixties ito battle
rode at the head OF hostile armies
now fall into line in the great pro-
cession to that realm Of silence in
which all enmities are buried. AS they
drew. near the end, those who had
been separated in unnatural strife
felt the old love come back
again. and yearned for mutual recogz
milton. General Grant, on his death
bed, opened his heart to General Buck
near, speaking in terms of utmost
tenderness Of our South. which had
suffered so much. Even as General
johnson followed as a sorrowful
mourner at the bier OF his adversary,
General Sherman. 30 have the soldiers
OF the South and North followed their
leaders In wishing that henceforth the
South and North should stand together
equal partners in one glorious union.
We are, nevertheless. asked on such
occasions as this. why do we recall
the memories Of war that is ended,
and that had better be forgotten? Let
the dead past bury It's dead" The
answer comes: "a great war cannot
be forgotten" It is out Of that dead
that comes living present.
More Tragic Interest.
II 1t were only a terrific explosion
OF human passion, tragedy such as
that Of which the world is now the
. spectator-it would have q terrible
fascination. But civil war has a still
more tragic interest, as it Is a war
between brothers, and. though family
quarrels are proverbially bitter, yet
all the while, deep down In our hearts
there is lingering tenderness that
other times and other scenes may
awaken again. The war Is now over,
although some of US may still shoul-
der our crutch and describe 1t again
and again-but the lessons 1t taught
should not be forgotten. Even IL the
heart strife need necessarily be men
toned to CLEAN the great results or

should not limit our tributes to those
who fought for the Southland. but
with the meliowing that the interyen-
ing years have brought We can look
on the canvas of history realizing that
whether friend or foe, they were all

Greatest General Of His Time.

ment Of apology, but with the pardon
able pride Of an American that / re-
fer tonight to Thomas Jonathan Jack
son as the most picturesque figure of
the war and, in the words of the most
critical historian, "the greatest gem
eral OF his time"
l am now OF the opinion that any
fair minded individual may feel equal
sympathy with both Confederate and
Federal. believe that the mass of
the people Of the North were as con,
vinced that their cause was Just. as
were we of the Southland; II Ulysses
Grant had been a virginian, imbibtng
the doctrine of states rights from his
infancy, ] feel certain that he would
have worn the Confederate gray. Ny
sympathy goes out to all engaged 10
that strife as Americans, but for the
Southerner. who would have tamely
surrendered his hereditary right or
for the Northerner who would have al
lowed the union to be broken, have
no sympathy and for such as he, this
speech can have no meaning.

Brest Litovsk, le grand-duc Nice
las ne peut songer q maintenir ses
positions, en- ce district, sill Sc volt
force de faire face a un movement
important. II mettrait ainsi ses
arm6es en- peril.
Quelques militaires pensent que

appliqu6e. Aussit0t, les magasins
ct les cafes fermerent; le long de
la vote du chemin de fer, les bons
bourgeois de Malines faisaient, de
la rue ou des fenetres des 6tages
de narquois signes de bonjours
aux voyageurs des trains, qui pas
salient sans s'arreter a la gare.
Une vile morte, plus de bouti-
ques ouvertes, plus de charcute-
ries, de cafes; celia ne faisalt pas
rafaire de la garrison allemande.
LIE "kommandant" manda le
bourgmestre. "Je ne puis pas, lui
dit celui-ci, forcer les commercants
ct caf6tiers a continuer le:rs af-
faires, 81 celia ne leur convent pas,
d'autant plus quill Sc coneoit fort
blen que celia ne leur convienne
pas: votre interdit rend tout COM
merce fructueux impossible"
Quelques jours apres, lie gouverneur
general levait Pinterdit, en- d6cla-
rant, dams un avis public, quill
await obtenu satisfaction. C6tait
tout a fait faux. Lies ouvriers ex-'
p6riment6s anciennement occu-
pes" q Parsenal avaient, soutenus
par toute la population, patriot
quement persist6 dams leur refus
de reprendre le travail, fallut-il
mourir de faim; mais Pautorlt6
allemande 6tait parvenue a recruter
25O sans travail, appartenant q de
vagues professions, qui avaient
consenti a s'improviser mecani-
ciens, ETC., a larsenal. On cite par
mi eux un pauvre diable de pein-
tire en- batiment qui va maintenant
gagner neuf marks par jour. Des
constructions ct r6parations de To-
comotives executes par des pein-
tres en- batiment, des marchands
de moules ct des rempailleurs de
chaises, VOLTA une belle applica-
tion de ce fameux esprit d'organi-
sation industrielle don't Sc vantent
tant les Allemand.
