TAKE A HAND
IN THE MONUMENT
_
To Confederate Soldiers To Be
Erected In Jackson County
Court House Yard.
To the citizens of Newport and
Jackson county:
In the matter of the building
a monument to the memory of
the Confederate dead of Jack
son county, the younger gener
ation, who are now running af
j fairs, may think it’s none of
your interest.
We beg to say you are entire
ly mistaken; you are all happy
and prosperous and who of the
old Confederates living does not
feel glad of your situation.
But if you will only look back
over the past you will learn who
made it possible for you to make
money and build fine homes and
invest in large holdings. Forty
years back, this county and
Jacksonport, the then county
seat, were in the hands of peo
ple who were destroying and
law could not be enforced, and
high handed robbery was ram
pant, and we had no government
and at this crisis the old Con
federates by force and manhood
which had been tested by four
years’ of war, fighting the whole
world and today all nations won
der how they did so long, estab
lished law and order.
No people less determined or
brave could have done it; they
did it at great sacrifice and dan
ger to them and their families.
But by such courage they suc
ceeded and for forty years they
built up a gi'eat Democratic gov
ernment and wrote a constitu
tion in ’74 which was built by
Confederates and has stood the
tests of our state.
By this the old Confederates
established such a government
—no graft, no stealing, but
look at them and read their
record and you will know it is
true, and now in asking you to
help us in this work yo uonly
honor your own history; so we
ask you to help us. Our com
mittee will call on you soon with
the subscription list. Please
subscribe liberally and help us
build a monument to their mem
ory and you will never regret it.
If we miss any, please call us
up or stop at Bevens’ drug store
or Col. Minor’s office, or Inde
pendent office, and we will sure
ly be obliged. All citizens are
! solicited with any amount you
jmay choose to give.
