that they had captured it without any
opposition whatever.
Col. Henderson complfmented the
people of the community for persever-
ing in their laudable spirit and COM
ing each year to strew flowers upon
the graves Of the dead, who gave up
their lives in the battle Of Rivers
Bridge, and said that he hoped that
this would be continued by the sur
vivors, and the children of the sur
vivors of the Confederate cause, no
matter what changes should come
upon the country, because the spirit
of liberty which animated the
people of the Confederacy is
still alive, and should ever be
cherished, and is real spirit
for love of country which ought to
animate us in the great struggle in
which we are engaged at the present
time.
Col Henderson then turned his re-
marks entirely to the present war,
and said that it was his purpose to
endeavOr to enthuse the people on
their duty in the present struggle in
all of it's aspects. He remarked among
other things that there was no need
for US to send troops to Europe, and
to send our boys over there to en-
gage with our Allies to fight the
German hordes, unless proper spirit
was engendered and kept up at home,
because troops could not be eX-
pected to fight in a foreign
country when their home people
did not show an appreciation
of them, and that it was our
duty in every way to devote ourselves
to a spirit of love for country and
love for liberty, which would go into
every department of our life to back
up our soldiers who had gone and
who would 60 to France and England
and elsewhere to help save the world
for civilization.

the war-involved the European peo-
pie and also brought us in, but that
these things were but as baggatels to
the great question. That on the one
hand stands the ideal of government
by kings and emperors and princes as
representing the State, and as crush
ing all republican ideals by force OF
arms, and that this was the object
of the German government for ira
ducing their people into following
them; and that on the other hand a
great idea of the republic is the rule
of the government and the rule of the
State by the masses of the people in
such form as is expressed by the
constitution of the United States of
America, and where the people are
represented by representatives and a
president chosen at tated periods.
That we are not fighting for pelf
and plunder and territory, but to
keep alive these principles, so that
this country and the world in the fu-
ture should be governed in the in
terest of the masses, and not in the
interest of the classes represented by
crowned kings and emperors. Col.
Henderson graphically described the
rise and nurturing of the idea in Ger
many from the time of Frederick the
Great down to the present kaiser
and compared this ideal with the
ideals of the American people
represented by George Washing
ton and the patriots of 1776,
and preserved for nearly CEN
tury and a half in this coun-
try. He graphically. laid before the
people the historical precedents of
the past to show that this thirst for
power and domination by the kings
and emperors had been defeated, as
he expressed it, from "Marathon to
the Marne," and that in each case the
crowned power had been crushed and
buried in the dust, and that America
would lock shields with England,
France and Italy and crush Germany
in this present war. He secuted the
idea, as is expressed by many, that a
democratic government is unfit to
rule and could not succeed in ter

and different nations, and not simply
between different armies. That there
was the man power which the au
thorities of our government would
organize efficiently and rapidly, but
as important as is the man power
so is the money power that is be-
ing represented in the liberty loan
drive that is now going on, and also
the industry power, the organization
of the great industries of the coun-
try to furnish munitions and cloth
ing and SUPPLIES to our people and the
allies; the labor power, the organiza-
tion Of the laborers of the land to
stand together and to stand by the
government and to cease strikes and
turmoils and contentious whilst the
war lasts; and paramount to them
all was the power of agriculture,
which is particularly represented in
this country by the farmers who de-
vote themselves not only to the rails
ing of cotton but supplies of all
kinds to feed our armies and people
and to feed the allies who are de-
pleted by the terrible struggle in which
we are engaged.
He warned the people not to be
carried away with the fear now in the
country that the price Of cotton was
going to be fixed by the government,
and that he had no belief in the idea
that the president championed the
cause, but that it was movement in
congress on the part of cotton specu-
lators and manufacturers to injure
the price of cotton.
Col. Henderson, in substance, fur
ther remarked that America could
not keep out of this struggle-the
president tried to keep us out as long
as he could, and that the real cause
and the real issue now before the
people as the reason why we are in
the war is just coming to light and
just being realized. That in the be-
ginning the rape of Belgium, the de-
struction of Serbia, the outrages of
the German soldier and the destruc-
tion of property, and the submarine
attacks upon our commerce were re-
corded as causes which brought on
The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1918-05-02

rible conflict like this, apd appealed
to the people to stand behind the
president, and those who are around
and about him, and to square them
selves for the terrible conflict which
is now on US, and which may last for
sometime to come.
His closing remarks epitomized the
subjects he had talked of in graphic
language, and his appeal to the peo-
pie seemed to have a considerable
effect.
1t was a great qualification that he
came among us at this particular
time.
