SAD soUTHEHN SHOCK

From the St. Louis Globe Democrat, Rep
 convention devoted to Southern indus tries, in session at Atlanta, has rejected the address prepared by special commit tee because it sounded too much like a Republican platform No doubt the com mittee performed its work impartially and with the single idea of presenting the truth in intelligent shape. The resemblance to a Republican statement was incidental It was also unavoidable Southern industries as now developing can not be described without at least indirect praise ol present national politics. Like other sections of the country the South is enjoying good times. It's industries are broadening out Its mills and other manufacturing plants multiplying. It's mines are rising in importance and it's products are in full de- observations may sound like a Republican platform, but since they are true how can that be helped? The committee honestly held the mirror up to the facts and these stubborn things had the audacity to betray a Republican flavor.
 So the Southern Industrial Convention sent the facts back to be worked over. A calamity speech anywhere from four to eiSlt years oiu Hlay ee auopteu as a sun stitute. A review of hard times would be the counterpart of Democratic platform, and the new special committee appointed at Atlanta will not lack for material of another kind if it turns in that direction Hundreds of thousands of Southerners ssre for sound money and expansion. All South erners know that prosperity has come within the last three years, that it is Re- publican prosperity. and that the South 5s in far better industrial condition than ever before in it's whole history. But it won't do for a Southern business convention to say so. It suggests a Republican platform. And, by the way, that is a splendid com pliment to the Republican party, though uDintapded
