PA6E SIX MEDFORD ITKJL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREfiOX, SUNDAY, JULY 6, 1930. REUNION 0 BLUE-GREY Head of Oregon G. A. R Will Work For 1931 Joint ' Encampment of Union "And Confederate Veter ans In Washington, D. C. '',"! would like to bring the old coHihaloiilfl toKtftlier, to hlinko liandn over the bloody clmntn, to forget the pant" Wm. M. Colvig, '85 state commander of the Ore gon 0. A. R., leaned hock In Ilia chair yesterday afternoon, gazed acroafl the long expatme of lawn at the Warner home on South Oak dale, where giant ouk linen cast rihadowH ncros the green to add to the: cool iieacefulneHH of the place, then explained the resolution lie contem platen Introducing ut the national encnniomeut of (liuml Army men In Cincinnati, Ohio, In AuKimt, to proiuoto a greutar peace and frlendlineKH between thn men who fought fur thulr country In' the yearn of "fil to '85 men who wore blue and men who wore May. .: , The resolution la to fix the city ol' Washington, D. C, an the meet ing place of the 10.11 encampment and will ask thnt nil veterans of 'the Civil war, both Union and Confederate, he invited to attend and Join in the same celebration. . Unite Section! ."Such an encampment would serve a useful purpose," Com mander Colvig added, "In remov ing the last mres of hatred or HI feeling which may exist between the. two sections of country." . He believes that congress would readily appropriate a sufficient sum of money to pay the trans portation of .evoiy vejaran. who la able to attend. There are at this time less than 50,000 Union veterans,... In 1831 it Is estlninled there will be less than 25.000 Ornnd Army men In the United' States and of this . 25.000, Commndpr Colvig pointed out, not more than 5000 will be physically able to at tend such a re-unlon. There would be less than 2000 confeder ates able to attend and an appro priation., (if :!00,000 would cover the expenses. i Respect! Opinions A respect lor every man, who haR fought for what he considered light, was expressed yesterday aft ernoon . by Commander Colvig n he considered soldiers of the past and present, dating back to the two survivors of the Hovohil tern ary war. with whom he honk hands at a Fourth of July cnlo hrotion at zanesvllle, Ohio, in 18(10. drey and Noble were their names and their ages 105 and 104 years. " once addressed a re-unlon of Confederate soldiers on Lookout mountain. It was the year of the St. Ixiuls world fair," Commander Colvig continued, reminiscences de veloping In affluent stream of con venation, characteristic of his story telling hours, "I was never treated better In my life. We've forgotten all about our troubles," the southern soldier said, who in cited me to make a speech before the re-unlon campflre. The wo man, however, showed as I talked, that they still felt Sherman's army desolated the country a little Inn much." Cemetery Described J' Speaking of the old battle grounds, Commander Colvig inro ad to a description of the Federal cemetery at Orchard Knob near Mission Mldgo, whoro graves of tlulon men and those who fought for the old south are divided only by o roadway. On the tomb of a confederate the Mug of the old confederacy Is carved Into the marble above the mottoe, "Ho died for his country." Across the road way his son. who In Inter years served under Joe Wheeler and met death In the Philippines, rests under a tomb carrying the "mf motto, beneath a carved likeness of the United Slates flng. An arch of marble has been built across the roadway, joining the two tombs by clasiied hands. The arch also carried a nmtlo. It reads, "They died for their coun try." . "When I stood and saw thnt arch." Commander Colvig paused In his speech, "I saw thai It was the roundntion for a mighty pretty lory" A reunion of Confederate and Union Iwys, he believes would lie an expression of the beautiful thought portriyed In the archway. Enlisted In 1863 ; Commander Colvig enlisted In the Oregon cavalry on April Bin. 1803.. Hd was discharged exactly three years Inter, lie coinplelfd )ils service west of the j Hiwkv mountains although ha enllnUMV. In hope of going back to the seen 3 of fighting. The two regiments formed III Oregon, Infantry and cavalry, were si at limed ut Hie' posts vacated by the regular troops called cast from the went etn outposts and had Indluns rub er than Confederates to combat. "We were distributed throughout the country at all western posts. We located and built Fort Klam ath during the summer nud tall of '113.' The next spring I went t" Fort Moine. I was young then," Commander Colvig concluded. "Klghty-seven per cent of the soldiers were under 22 years of age." He drew a list of statistics from his pocket to prove the exes of the boys who will meet in Cin cinnati and perhaps Washington. J.
