time of business prosperity, some men

unfortunately also inevitable that
when this is the case somo unwise
people are sure to try to appeal to the
envy aud jealousy Of those who suc-

these appeals are made to remember
that while it is difficult to increase

TO ruin it, and that there is small

Every industrial exposition of this
type necessarily calls up the thought
OF the complex social and economic
questions which are involved in our
present Industrial system. Our as
sounding material prosperity, the
sweep and rush rather than the mere
march OF our progressive material de-
velopment, have brought grave trou-
bles in their train. We cannot afford

The Presidents Address.

u
Following is thel address made b,
President Roosevelt in the Audito
rum at the Exposition in Charleston
last Wednesday, 9th inst:
It is to me peculiar privilege "a
speak here in your beautiful city.
My mothers people were from Geor.
gia; but before they came to Georgia,
before tho Revolution, in the day Of
colonial rule, they dwelt for nearly .
century in South Carolina; and there
fore can claim ys;our State as nine
by inheritance1 no less than by the
stronger and nobler right which makes
each foot Of American soil in a sense
the property Of all Americans.
Charleston is not only typieal
Southern city; tits alao city whose
history teens with events which link
themselves to American history as a
whole. In the early colonial days
Charleston Was the outpost Of our
people against the Spaniard in the
South. In the days of the Revo.
lu:ion there occurred here some Of the
events which vitality affected the OUT
come Of the struggle fOrindependence.
and which impressed themselves
most deeply upon the popular
mind. It was here that the tremen.
dous, terrible drama of the OWL war
opened.
With delicate and thoughtful cour.
tesy you originally askel me to come
to this Exposition on the birthday of
Abraham Lincoln. The invitation
not only showed fine generosity and
manliness in you, my hosts, but it
also emphasized as hardly anything
else could have emphasized how COM
pletely we are now united people.
The wounds left by the great civil
war, incomparably the greatest war
of modern times, have healed, and its
are now priceless heritages
Of honor alike to the North and to the
South. The devotion the self-sacri.
fee, the steadfast resolution and lofty
daring, the high devotion, to the right
as each map saw it. whether Northern-
er or Southerner-all these qualities
of the men and women of the early
sixties now shine luminous and bril-
ant before our eyes, while the mists
u anger and hatred that once dimmed
hem have passed away forever.
All of US, North and South, can
glory alike in the valor of the men
Who wore the Grey. Those were iron
lines, and only iron men could fight
o its terrible finish the giant struggle
2etween the hosts Of Grant and Lee.
10 us of the present day, and to our
hildren and children's 8 children, the
'aliant deeds, the high endeavor and
bnegation OF self shown in that strug-
Eill remain for eyermore to mark the

Western Hemisphere. which the people
of both this country and the island will
celebrate.
The spirit of liberty. he said, still lives.
He then spoke of the prowess of the
American arms.
When the names Dewey" and "Schley"
were mentioned by General Miles the ap-
plause increased. so that General Miles
was forced to cease for several minutes.
He referred to the various veteran orga-
nizations and their effect upon the coun-
try.
After delivering his address General
Miles held reception.
