Getting Together at Last.
The splendid tribute of Everett ?.
Hill, editor of the New Haven Reg
ister, to Jefferson Davis, which was
published in The Times and Democrat
last week, has been received through
out the South with sincere apprecia
tion. The News and Courtier, in
.commenting'on Mr. Hill's tribute
says: It was, as we have said, the
finest utteoance that hab been spoken
' by any Northern newspaper since the
war, and it has touched a deep chord
,in the Southern heart. We have
not been surprised at the reception
of the Yankee "editors' tribute in
the South; everybody down here
would like to think that "the past
is with the eternal past," that here
is' no longer any cause of misunder
standing, that the time is over for
crimination and recrimination, that
j we know each other better and love
one another more. We have been
somewhat disappointed, however,
that there has been so little response
from Northern newspapers and states
men to the heartsome sentiments of
our New Haven friend. But we arej
very much gratified by a letter from
Mr. Hill, in which he tells us that
only one of bis many readers has
openly resented what he said about
Mr. Davis, and to his mind this is
" a proof of a most encouraging
change of sentiment in New England,
an indication of a tendency to turn
and do justice." '
That we are emerging from the
mists of the' unhappy past is proved
by many striking incidents in recent
years. The soldierly conduct of
Colonel Turner, of the First Illinois
Infantry, in firing a salute over the
graves of the Confederate soldiers
Juried in Wdodlawn. Cemetery, Chica
go, against the almost violent pro
tests of some of the irreconcilables,
was really the first gun in the fight
for a better understanding between
the sections, and it has been follow
ed by many advances on both of the
old sides in recent years. We have
received a letter from the Rev.
W'illiam P. F. Ferguson, editor of
The National Prohibitionist, of Chica
go, in which he says: "I think
the people of the North?ninety-five
per cent of them?heartily agree with
the sentiments expressed in the New
Haven Register." Dr. Ferguson says
further: "I fancy that even the best
informed people of the South very
little understand how nearly univer
sal is the kindly feeling of the North,
and how nearly dead and buried is
the old hatred for Mr. Jefferson
Davis."' i
Last May Dr. Furguson preached a
very striking sermon on Decoration
Day in Cincinnati. Among other
things he said in this sermon:
""It seems to me that the time
has cbme When we cannot only call
'those who remain of the great army
that wore the Grey, brothers, and
they in turn can stretch to us the
brother's hand, but when, as well, we j
can exercise the broadest spirit of |
brotherhood and kindness and honest,
recognition of worth toward all who
fought oh either side of that great
struggle."'
After saying that he had tuaght
his sons to reverence the name of.
Lincoln and to honor the gerat com
manders on the Union side of the'
war, Dr. Ferguson said that he had
also taught them to admire the great!
commanders of the South: "Stone
wali" Jackson "as a devotee of truth
as he believed it," and he had told
them" the story of "the knightly,
white life of Robert E. Lee," and ask-.
ed no man's permission to "pause'
with them beside the resting-place
of Jefferson Davis and say:
" 'Here lies a great American who
was awfully miEtaken in his working ,
out of one of the fundamental prob-^
lern?- of American life, but who was
unflinchingly faithful to what he be-'
lieved to be the correct solution.1
Here lies as gallant a soldier as ever
rode to battle, as kindly a friend as
ever loved a comrade, a politician
with hands absolutely clean of even
the suspicion of a dirty deal.' "
Dr. Ferguson says in his letter:
"A year ago at the time of the North
ern Memorial Day, we ran a poem
on our first page which I adorned \
with the pictures of Lincoln and Da-1
vis, Grant and Lee, with appropriate
quotations from each. Just two men.
both of them very old men, among
ail our thousands of readers made
aby objections. This year I was<f
&s>ked to deliver a Memerial Day
sermon to one of the large Cincin
nati churches. I did so and publish
ed the sermon in The National Pro
hibitionist. We had protests from
one subscriber, he an old Federal
soldier, who fell into the hands of
guerrillas and underwent rather an
uncomfortable experience, which he
has had hard work to forget.'
We are getting together at last,
"with malice towards none, with
charity for all, with firmness in the
right, as God gives us to see the
rb/ht," .and our New Haven friend
and fellow-countryraau could desire
no higher honor than to be enrolled ?
with the noble company of those'
who are ? sincerely trying to live In1
the peace of God and for the good j
of the State.
Stay on tin; Farm.
Very few will disagree with J. J.
Hill about the evil effect of the con
tinuous drift from the country to
the city. It was hoped that the im
proved social conditions now enjoy
ed on the farm and the higher prices
obtained for farm products would
turn the tide or at the very least
check the- flow, but the hope has not
been realized. And yet ultimately
it will come to that. Smaller farms,
extensive and more intelligent farm
ing with corresponding increased
yield per acre, better roads and fur
ther improvements In rural social
life will, with the growing aculeness
of the struggle for exlstance in the
cities. lead to a better balancing of
rural and urban popularity.
Hail to the Chief.
Americans are hard hitters in poli
tics, but there is an underlying spirit
of fairness which, altogether it mav
be temporarily hidden in the heat
of conflict, shows itself strongly on
almost every occasion. This i? seen
just now in special manner in the
courtesies and welcome extended to
President Taft in the visit he is
making to different parts of the
j country. Many may differ from him
I on his expressed views on certain
questions, but for the man himself
and as chief magistrate of the nation
there is nothing, but the most fondly
feeling and people of all parties unite
in extending to him a characteristic
American welcome and hospitality.

I Charleston, S. C.
Dear Sirs:
For a number of years I have been
a great sufferer of Rheumatism and
Backache. About two months ago
I heard of Yarn's Rheumatic Remedy
being fine, and a sure cure for Rheu
matism and Backache, and I went to
the WImberly Drug Co. at once and
got a bottle. I have taken two bot
tles, and I am proud to say that I am
just as clear of Rheumatism and
Backache as I ever was. I am 62
years old, and I consider this med
icine wonderful to cure a man at
my age.. You, nor any one else, can
recommend It too highly.
I consider It a great blessing to
humanity that this remedy has been
discovered. I gained six pounds
while I was taking two bottles.
Yours respectfuily,

"I write to thank you for the wonder
ful good your Peruna has done for me.
''I was a sufferer from kidney and

"1 can safely and truly say that Peru
na has been a blessing to me.
"I had catarrh so badly that i had lost
the sense of smell aad taste.
"I had stomach trouble so bad that I
could not eat anything without suffer
ing afterwards.
44My friends advised me to try Peru
na. I bought one bottle und was greatly
benefited by it, and bo I bought one-half
dozen bottles, and will say that I am
completely cured of stomach trouble
and catarrh.
"I cannot say enough for Peruna."

"I have been using Poruna for catarrh,
having bad a very aggravated case, so
bad that it clogged the nasal organs.
When I did get the nasal organs opened,
the mucus would drop into my throat
and make me very sick.
"A friend advised me to take Peruna,
and after using four bottle* I was cured.
"I have no trouble now, and am happy
to say that I am enjoying the best of

"I have beon afflicted with catarrh for
