There is an element in this country that already has no use for the soldier of the Civil War.
It is upheld and maintained today, as it always has been, by the patriotism of our people as represented by our Army in the Civil War, in Cuba, the Philippines, and China.
I must say this is the first time I ever heard of national honor being sustained by such methods.
They evidently have no desire to learn about these things, but want some excuse for attacking our Army, hoping thereby to bring dishonor upon our country before the world.
