A Valuable Souvenir.
Last week we received a pleasant call
’from Hon E. II. Kittell of Rockville.1
While here Mr. Kittell showed us an
old Confederate hill of the denomina
tion of S-'.OO, issued at Richmond. Va..
Feb. 17, 18(>4. It was found or.lv a few '
days previously bv the family between
th»* leaves of a volume entitled ‘-Pol-!
lard's Lost Cause," a Southern history
of the vVar of the Rebellion, a hook
highly urized by Mr Kittell being left
him bv his father. Rev. G. W. Kittell. j
who was captain of Co. C, r>8th Ills
Vols., brought home with him at the
close of the war, and the bill was un- j
doubtedlv placed in the book by the
good father, as Mr. Kittell had not seen
e;iid Confederate note for over thirty
years On the back of the note were
printed the following verses, which tell
their own tale and speak eloquently of
b asted hopes:
—
IX MEMORIAM.
(Respectfully dedicated to the ho’ders
of Confederate treasury notes.)
Rej.resenting nothing on God’s earth
new,
And naught in the waters below it,
As a pledge of the nation tint’s dead
and gone,
Keep it, dear friend, and show' it
Show it to those who vvill lend an ear
To tlie tale that this paper can te I.
Of liberty born, of the patriot's dream
Of the storm-cnohed nation that fell
Too^ioor to possess the precious creq
And t *o much of a stranger to borrow
We issue today our pro n is-* to p tv.
And bopj to releem on ti e norro v.
1 he days r< 11 eel on and w« ks 1 e *;;m
y« ars,
Hut our coffers were empty stiff,
Coin was so rare the treasure quaked
If a dollar should drop in the till.
Hut the faith that was iu us w«e strong
indeed.
And our poverty w ell discerned,
And these litMe checks represerred the
pay
That our suffering volunteers earned
We knew it had hardly a value in gold.
Yet as gold her soldiers received it,
It gazed in our eyes with a promise to
pay.
And each patriot soldier believed it.
Hut our boys thought little of price or
Or the bills that were overdue, [pay.
We knew it brought us bread today,
Twas the best our poor country
could do.
Keep it, for it tells our history o’er,
From the birth of it’s dream to the last
Modest, and born of the Angel Hope,
Like the hope of success, it passed.
The law’ will have another try at
Tom Denison, the Omaha gambler,
accused of complicity in the Pollock
diamond robbery. He was found
not guilty at a former trial by a jury
of Iowa guessers, but public opinion
as to Denison’s guilt has undergone
no perceptible change in conse
quence.
The strenuous effort on the part
ot the Omaha Bee to create senti
ment in ' favor of Tom Denison,
should and undoubtedly does earn
his eternal gratitude for his bosom
friend Rosewater, however much or
little influence said strenuousness
exerts. The people of Nebraska
are, however, quite well acquainted
with Rosewatetism.
Deputy Attorney General Thomp
son has called attention to the fact
even if the biennial election law is
held to be unconstitutional, registers
of deeds and county supervisors will
be permitted to bold over until Jari
uarv. 1907, while county assessors
will have another year added. It
i9 pointed out that none ot these
are constitutional offices, so that the
defeat of the general bill will not
affect the law extening these terms.
When you go to Lincoln after
this, remember you musn’t spit—on
the sidewalk, at least. The city has
passed an ordinance against expecto
rating on the walks, and you will
have to make a lunge for the street
if you are not prepared to do the
boa constrictor act. Would it not
be well for the capital city to provide
great spitting vats at convenient
intervals for the public, with banners
warning the stranger to “Spit Here.”
