ernor Hogg and Mayor Callahan and re-
sponded to by the President Secretary
Rusk and Postmaster General Wanamaker.

the opportunity of visiting the historic city,
and added: 81 rejoice that you have here
so great commonwealth. The great in
dustrial capabilities which you have; the
beneficent climate that spreads over much
OF your territory: the great variety OF pro-
auctions which your soil and climate rem
der possible, give a promise for future
prominence among the great states of the
union that seems to me can scarcely fail to
bring Texas to the front. Cheers The
advantage which you have to transmute
the great productions of the field into the
manufactured product is very great. There
can certainly be no reason why q very

cotton which you produce should
not be spun in Texas. Cheers | hope
your people will more and more turn their
thoughts to this matter, for just in proper
ton as community or state suitably divides
Its energies among various Industries, so
does it retain the wealth it produces and
increases population. [Applause.
My fellow citizens, the pride of America
that which should attract admiration. and
has attracted the immigration of MANY
people upon the face of the earth, is our
system of government. Applause am
glad to know, asI have expressed my salts
faction before, that here IN the state
OF Texas you give attention to edu
cation; that you have been able
to erect school fund, the interest upon
which promises most magnificent endow-
ment for the schools. These schools are
the pride and safety of our state Thew
gather into them upon common level with
US, and l hope with you, the children of the
rich and poor"
The President then held a public recep-
ton. A short visit was afterward made to
the military post at Fort Houston. where

was not sentenced to be put to death by
electricity, because that law could not
take effect on criminals who committed

be the last man to be hanged in that
