New Epoch in Presidents and Civil War Veterans
A Denver Republican excerpt argues the next U.S. presidents will come from a later generation, likely the post Civil War generation, with few veterans left in office by 1905. It cites Lincoln era leaders, Van Buren, and others, predicting the president elected in 1905 may be the last to have fought in the Civil War. The piece contrasts ages at inauguration and notes Lee’s veterans left the field over four decades prior. It reflects on a new landmark in national history and the likelihood of future leaders from a newer generation. It also includes a column on selecting occupations for sons, criticizing limited capital and advocates growing sugar beets as a viable path for small capital investors.
