CAUSE FELL WITH JACKSON
i
ae Writer So Bar in JteeIIIiir
the Deaib of General Lee'a
"Right Am."
Fifty years ago there felt mortally
wounded at Cbancelloravltlo one ot the
treat captains of tho English-speaking
races.
Xee Who called Stonewall Jackson, hts
strong1 tight arm, once said that ho would
have won Gettysburg if Jackson had been
there. Be that as it may, the almost un
interrupted victories of the army of north
ern Virginia ended when Jackson passed
away. Chancellorsville marked the flood
tide -of the confederate arms. Two months
later came Gettysburg, and from thence
on to Appomattox Lee's forces, despite
all their .marvelous courage and tenacity,
were never again invincible.
Jackson 8 place In military history Is
unique. Most great reputations were made
by long years of service. His career was
compressed Into a scant twenty-two
months, from that day in July, 1E61, when
tee pointed to him "standing like a stone
wall" at Bulls Ilun, to the early May day
In 183 when he marched his corps
around the front of Hooker's army.
smashed. In its right flank, and gave the
confederacy Its moat brilliant victory,
only to fall under tho fire of his own
men.
A terrible "partnership was that between'
the cavalier and the Puritan, between
tee. who embodied tho chivalry of Vlr
ginia, and Jackson, who was a direct
spiritual descendant ot the mun that
fought with Cromwell at Naseby. In all
crWa the. two men setmtid to fight with
a single brain and a single purpose, desti
tute alike of the jealousy and Intrigue
that all -but wrecked tho army ot the
Potomac,
Jackson presents a strange, appealing
figure on the pages of history. He waa
as gentlo and gracious as' Lee, as silent
and tatiturn aa Grant, as daring - and
audacious as Stuart or Sheridan, as re
lentless as (merman, and with it all there
waa an intensity of religious fervor that
belonged to the seventeenth century
rather than the nineteenth. The war to
him was a prayer on his lips, and he
went from battle to give thanks to God,
who had wrowned his army with victory:.
Appealing from bis native sod
In fnrma. naUDerl to God.
"Iay bara thlno arm stretch forth thy
roa.
Amen'." That's Stonewalls way.
.Even the bullets that struck him down
lie regarded as providentially directed by
at definite divine purpose. There Is no
hi6re .mendacious phrase than tbat of "a
bdfn soldier," but hero was a man who
yfia - beyond question a born soldier-a
soldier who hated war. who was dittlfcd
neither by ambition nor glory, who
fought for principle and principle alone,
and whose military genius waa element!
Peace to bis ashes. A united nation can
be proud that he waa numbered among
her sons. New York world.

financial success.
The best interests of Omaha and its
citizens and the best interests of the gas
company are really the same.
The reaction of a franchise unfair to
the people could do us immeasurable
damage.
Nothing is easier than to charge an
opponent with bad motives; no kind of a
charge should carry less weight with fair
minded men and women.
There is nothing "between the lines'
in the proposed gas rate-reduction franchise.
If the gas company did not believe it
fair to the people it would not persistently
invite YOU to read it and to carefully
consider it section by section.
Approval of the rate-reduction fran
chise by the voters means that you will get
a reduction of 15 cents per thousand feet
in the price of gas at once.
The rate reduction franchise will save
the gas users of Omaha more than $700,000
in the next 5 1-3 years alone this tuith-
unexpired "franchise value," and the, right
to admit a competing company.
If the franchise is rejected, the city and
the company will bo compelled to fight
out the dollar gas case in the courts, with
uncertain results at the-end of four or five
years. The most the city can win is $1.00
gas, which is offered NOW by the rate
reduction franchise.
The franchise was unanimously passed
by the mayor and city council, based upon
a long investigation by experts. .
It will be accepted by the gas com
pany because, although $1.00 gas will not
at present yield a fair return upon the
actual value of its physical property, the
company desires to serve the people effici
ently and adequately with gas not excelled
in the United States, and in this way to
maintain its standing as a progressive and
deservedly successful service organization.
All future rates must be fixed by
contract ordinance by the mayor and
out figuring compound or any other kind city councii The people have the right
