That the wounds resulting from thy

denced by the efforts being made be
Union veterans TO secure Federal aid
for Confederate soldiers. Senator Works
Of California, who fought in the Union
Amy, has introduced a bill III the Sen
ate popularity styled the blue and Gray
Bill" 1t provides that the SIS, O000OO
soldiers home at johnson City, Tenne-
see, be- turned Over to Confederate vet
Grams. In recent years death has cut
such a wide swath in the ranks of the
Union veterans that several of the Gov
eminent homes are only half filed. 1t
Is proposed to move the Union veterans
now at Johnson City to some Other
home and turn over this magnificent ill.,
stItution to the surviving soldiers of the
South.
