IE LAST, BEST TRIUMPH OF
{ THE CONFEDERACY.

hfEtRE
81 THE CONFEDERAcY.
The reunion at Washington
brought many brave words
from the press of the north in
paying tribute to the valor and
patriotism of the Confederate
soldiers. No longer the cpl
tibet of rebel" is applied to
the soldier who fought for the
principles that be believed to
be right, but his devotion to
the lost cause won. for him the
admiration of the foes of form
er days and today due homage
is paid by the sons of those he
met in deadly conflict. The
New York American, refer
ing to the reunion at Washing
ton says:
And now the Confederate SOL
diers have captured Washington at
last. Fifty-two years after Apo
mattox he is camped in his uniform
under the dome of the Capitol and
lights his bivouac fires at the very
threshold of the White House. With
in those fifty years he has won the
heart of the county. Dauntless re-
solve and unconquerable industry
have wrought for him a miracle of
recuperation that has made his Dix
lie blossom out of ashes into a mag
nificent prosperity that has enrich
ed his country and glorifed his race.
Within those years he has contri-
buted soldiers and statesmen and
singers and publicists that have CIV
en- stability to his country's policies
anil dignity to its laws.
AID within these years, when the
war tocsin sounded in 1913" this
brave old foeman of the "sixties"
not waiting to be listed, came with
his staple treasures in his hands to
lay his iron row at the foot of the
Government and prove in that hour
OF PERL that he was neither a. lag
gard in love nor a bastard in war.
Alabama alone contributed, in
proportion to it's population, more
volunteers to the Spanish-American
War than any commonwealth of the
Republic.
And this is why the Confederate
soldier of 1917 has found it posi-
BILE to win today this generous and
splendid surrender of his country S
capital which he could never achieve
in battle at the point of his daunt-
less but mistaken sword.
Significant beyond all words is the
latest and, it is said, the last Re-
union of the Confederate Veterans.
Two things it stamps upon the
record Of this tremendous and event.
full hour: First, that with the national
sword unshreathed against the
greatest foe and in the greatest
cause in all the world, these locked
arms Of blue and gray hfigades at
Washington proclaim the HEART
HOUND AND NbEsTRUCTIRLE
UNITY OF THE AMERICAN RE-
PUBLIC. g
And second, that while we are
facing now in sternest battle the
stoutest foe that nation ever frontesd
id q righteous cause, these united
and heroic men bear witness in the
memories of Manassas and Cold
Harbor, of Antietam and Appomat-
tor. that the men Of today are with.
us the Sons of the Sires, the spawn
Of heroes who in the red crucible of
bkttle will illustrate once again that
common glorious spirit to which
Lincoln paid tribute at Gettysburg

Plans are completed for the opening

noon tomorrow. At that hour exactly.
the local committee. of which John
Poole is chairman. has decided a gen.
eral hubbub from all the available
oise-making instruments in the city
will announce to residents that the
campaign has begun.
When you hear the noise you are
requested to turn to your neighbor. no
matter where you are, and say, one
and all:
1.-The second liberty loan campaign has
opened
1t is hoped that everything in the city
will come to a standstin for about two
minutes at noon-that Is, everything ex-
cept tongues. Every tongue is asked to
eXclaim:
THE second liberty loan campaign has
opened"
Auto Owners to Assist.
The loan committee wants automobile
owners to toot their horns for all they
are worth tomorrow at the hour OF noon
and help out in the big noise.
Everybody make a lot Of noise," says
the committee.
The new button which will be given
to each purchaser of the second liberty
bonds has been received. It is of the
same size as the old one but a better
looking button. all those who have seen
it agree. 1t Is generally confessed that
the old button was no beauty. The new
one is a genuine improvement in ap-
pearance. and instead of bearing the
injunction. Buy a liberty bond" car
ries the phrase. Il own liberty bond"
which all agree is the more sensible
sentiment of the two for an owner Of
a bond to announce to the world from
his lapel.
Blue the Predominating Color.
The predominating color of the new
button is blue. the figure of the statue
of Liberty appearing in white, as do the
words Il own a liberty bond" against
the blue center. Outside is a narrow
band of white. while the circumference
is a somewhat broader band of red.
Thus do the colors of Old Glory appear
red, white and blue.
Bankers to Meet.
Following the opening of the cam
paign at noon. the Bankers Associa-
ton of the District of Columbia will
meet-tomorrow evening at o'clock
in the rooms of the American Institute
of Banking at 1914 F street to consider
all questions pertaining to the second
liberty loan. Among other matters to
be considered will be that of a new
partial payment plan for buying the
new bonds whereby the purchase may
be made easier.

place Camp Meade is. how 1t is con-
Quoted. who the officers are who have
charge of the destines OF the boys from
home and how those same boys are
faring.
To begin with, Camp Meade is good
sized city within itself. 1t has Its own
bakery. its own laundry, its own water
supply, its own sewer system and sew
age disposal and at least the begin
nings of its own electric light and
power plant and system and its own
road system. In a way. too. 1t has its
own system of government. military.
of course, because it is a cantonment
at which men are being trained for
the greatest and most democratic army
the world has ever seen. But Camp
Meade is somewhat in the same posi-
tion as is the capital of the nation
that is. military and civil jurisdiction
are concurrent.
