everything he stands for.
Thus spoke Governor Herrick, of Ohio,
before the Republican Convention of that
state on Thursday last. Whilo this speech
was being delivered, certain Southerners
were holding an Industrial convention in
Washington.- The man of the hour tc
whom the delegates should look, said ono
of the speakers, amid applause, was Pres
ident Roosevelt, who, he believed, could,
and would help. President Roosevelt he
said, was the greatest man In the
country to-day, who not only had tho
power but the mind and the will. to
help. The South, he said, needed some
thing else besides immigration Of labor,
and that was to encourage and extend
| to the marts Of the world cotton manufac-
tured goods, But, what was needed moro
than anything else, was the guarding OF

| Orient, and which now seemed to be
threatened with dire disaster on account

dent, DIR. Irwin said he was a man who
