would challenge toddy; the instltn
tion of slavery w-as forever wiped
by' ons stroke of the President pen,
and there is none who would recall
it for a sicgle hour. These issues
were the Immediate occasion of the
bitter conflict. They have trow been
forever determined, and we think we
can recognize in their decision the
directing hand of an all wise provi
dence. But the basic principle of
Democracy, individual liberty and lo
cal self-government, the idea that the
respective states are not dependencies
of the government at Washington, but
are sovereign entitles, granting - to
the National Government on'; such
powers as are necessary to be ad
ministered by a central body for the
protection and convenience of the
whole union Of States these princi
ples still live, and must continue to
live if we. would cot have liberty and
freedom perish from the earth. These
principles, the men of the South fcbn
sidered fundamental In 1861, and when
they saw them challenged they sprang
to arms in their .defense . And it was
in' defense of- these principles that
uenerai Leer, led the itoys in grey
through, those four years of suffer,
ing and bitter fighting.' . They fought
not against the 'Union, but for ; the
constitution as framed and understood
sills of this f reat Government at tht
time of lue' "separation from Great
Britain;5! Today It. is difficult for vt
to see why this terrible strupgle which
ur;, LKum'-wot iiave beon avoided, and
perhaps, had not the slavery question
swept the country into a frensy, it
miithtihave been: but there Is no
longer any doubt that the construction
placed upon the Constitution by the
men of the South in 1861, is the con
struction that had generally been ac
cepted throughout the I'nion prior to
that time. Therefore we, the ties
condar.ts of those who wore the grey
maintain and will evrr proclaim their
heroism, their patriotism and their
devotion to dirty; and, while yielding
to nono In our love for our re-united
Courtry, we have taken a solemn vow

federate doad. and to cherish and keep
