/ hands and brains. Mix iron ore, coal and the
men ali no together. and you nill nave
a surprisingly good result. We need,
however, moi only industrial schools,

other race as well..that is with us. and with
us 10 stay. This is the only way we can build
/ up the industrial future of Richmond. Ihen,

and IN the years not far distant.people from

/ President Pugh. as soon as Major Hotch-
kiss had finished and the loud applause sub
sided. appointed the following members a
committee on resolutions: J.. II. hartley,
{ Lexington. Gazette J. II. Wilcox, Ports.
mouth Progress, and W. ii, IOwney, OF the
Glade spring Citizen.
EULoGY ON GRADY.
Mr.. Pugh then announced that Mr.. II. NJ.
SMITH, Of the Graham Headlight, would de-
/ liver eulogy on Henry W. Grady:
1 The wide and ripened field to be traversed
/ by an culogist Of Grady covers SO vast an
area OF ethics and history that the few mo-
menis 10 which | have limited myself are
/ far too short for 80 grand theme.
/ His lifc-wOrk had been achieved, and that
| inscrutable power which governs The des-
| TIMES of men and Of ratlOns had dccreed that
/ IL should move like the swift but magnificent
/ pageant Of meteor TO its splendid close.
! The pine cones 4 his beloved Georgia are
falling on his grave while we speak OF his
| life work, ana the pen Is rustej which wrote
a new history on the margin Of The OH and
taught u t. q generation tiIed OF The strife Of
decades and the contention Of sections. but
we sec looming through the msts which fol-
] low the storm The glOIifis image OF The man
who bridget the NaWning chasm and LETT
only towards IND fools To rave ana glover AT
each other from It's approaching shores.
Last summer ut a banquet rendered the
| Mass Ichusctts Press Association ] was
/ chosen 10 welcome Them 10 my little noun
I IAN CITY ana fllt NONlDf ana Silus " ith
! YOU received INTO your hearts ana homes I'D
| the capital OF your ancient Commonwealth
I and cla~prd ln yours the hand OF the tribune
{ Of the new south, from that moment all bit
I tcruess and prejudice ana al division had
/ vanished ike "a school boys dIean-the NlS-
! ion ofan hour.
His mission accomplished, he wrapped the
dapcfy OF his couch around him and lay
down tO pleasant slumber.
Lies iitful fever over lac sleeps well Many
men have hobbies and concentrate all Their
faculties upon the bringing about OF pro-
/ posed cOsditiOn Of things. ana The dead bro
/ tner whose shudOWy eslOlOn stalks among
us to-uilhi had LOT his hobby the emancipa
[ ON OF his cOuntrymen. Not such physical
emancipation as that which made a fanatic
and "a martyr Of John Brown and raised LIN
coin and Mendall Phillips TO the sublimest
heights Of sectional patriotism. But 'rady's
/ nft work went far towards the emancipation
of the minds Of his cOuntfymen, not only
/ from all the useless shackles of caste, hut
I fIOm the bitterness engendered 10y war ana
/ the jcalOusies created by Divine interests.
Until Grady adopted a hobby his liie-wOrk
was a fsilurc. ard the great-hearted Northern
friend. whose shreWd kindliness enabled MIN
10 give 10 an audience, found him stranded
upon the bleak shores OF unsuccessful Jour
naism.
II VIII not be forgotten that Grady, the
tribune Of the New south. joined the majority
sooner than Jefferson Davis, the apostle Of
The Old, bnt i'm this historic city where the
stern Mississippi,n 50 long held at bay me
aims of an nations, and where he made MS
home in tine hearts OF MS cOuntfNmen, inete
can he no shadow Of regret That the chieiiain
OF the COnlcdcIacy died uaSubdued ard unre-
lcnting. leaving an unstalned record OF cOuf-
ace and consistency. but there Is no reason
/ 10 believe that the great cN-ffesldcut was
not in earnest sympathy with the great
Journalist. 10 is pathetic to remember that
the vigorous young pine should rear us loity
top TO catch blast when passed ABOVE me
eiand AMI hoaIy cypress Of The Mississippi.
Beautiful in their lives, IN death they were
undivided
our poor eulOgy is ended, but we VIII not
say farewell 10 Grady We need not say
adieu. for parriots and lovers of humanity
are alWays in the hands of God. We might
utter a sad goodbye or adopt the beautiful
au revoir OF the French, for in some iairer
bappicr cline We hope 10 greet our DrOthel
with bright gOOd-mOrnlng.
