The Vicksburg Herald, in its Tues
days edition had the following to say
in its report of the President s visit
to Historic City!
Theodore Roosevelt, president Of
the United States, surprised and
startled the entire South in his Vicks-
burg speech, and eliminated every
prejudice hitherto that might have
existed against him in any Southern
heart. He did this when he paid
tribute to jefferson Davis, whom
years ago he had criticised in his earl
Ter writing. 1t was the first time in
his life he had been generous
to this great Mississippian, and his
utterances on Mississippi platform
giving him such kindly mention melt
ed every barrier that may have here
tOfOre barred his welcome to South
ern hearts. President Roosevelt s
speech was one of most important
national interest. His utterances
yesterday are of moment to every
part of the country.
He took the people into his conf
dence and for the first time an
nounced that in his next message
to congress he would earnestly recon-
mend gigantic appropriation for
digging the deep waterway from the
Lakes to the Gulf. He was enthus-
astic upon the improvement of the
Mississippi, and has taken it greatly

united country His splendid refer

Lamar, and his gracious and cour-
teous tribute to Lieut.. Gen. Stephen
D. Lee at his side, were wildly cheer
ed.
The city of Vicksburg and the state
of Mississippi were honored in the ad-
dress. Spontaneous and continued az
plause greeted him at many points Of
the speech.
There were $4,000 people in hearing
distance of the president when he
and his party came to the brilliant
ly decorated platform about $3.50
o'clock. There were 5000 other peo-
pie masSed on nearby streets whl
could not hear him. Men, women and
children were massed in great, hap

threats Of thousands upon the appear

Mayor Griffith, with Hon. John

"My country IT'S of Thee!" was
inspiringly rendered by several hun

President Roosevelt that he left his
seat and went over to the edge of the
school ehildren's stand, and smiling
ly acknowledged his pleasure.

to heart. He pledged himself unre-
servedly to this great project.
He insisted that the Panama canal
was being dug and dug well. He
spoke of vicious and ominous evils
meaning the trusts, that must be com
batted. He urged at length a higher
morality, purer civic righteousness
and the vigorous punishment of dis
honest men and methods in the life of
the republic. He emphasized the alb
solute necessity Of a broad and pure
Judiciary.
President Roosevelt's speech be
came militant when he urged the alb
solute necessity of u greater md
larger navy to sustain the Monroe
doctrine and police the Panama ca
nal. He fingered longer on the need
of an increasing navy than any other
part Of his speech, and the thousands
who heard it entered into the spirit
of his advocacy of a greater navy and
cheered him to the echo. When he
spoke of the great fleet going from the
Atlantic to the Pacific in a few weeks
there were those present who inter
proted his strong statements to mean
that henceforth the Pacific would nc
heavily protected. Some whispered,
Look out, Japan"
Looking afar into the vista of time
President Roosevelt boldly asserted
that the wonderful future Of America
depended upon its ability to protect

readily inferred from the president s
speech that he was far more interest
ed in a greater navy than in other
projects.
The progress and broadening Of
Americanism was one of his strongest
preachments. In the opening part Of
his address President Roosevelt dwelt
largely upon the elimination OF seq

Mayor Griffith was applauded from
time to time, and when John Sharp
Williams arose ten thousand cheers
rent the air. Frequently during the
speech of Mr.. Williams, President
Roosevelt clapped his hands, and Of
ten smiled and bowed his approval
over some remarks the senator-elect
has made. When the latter turned to
the president to introduce him, and
the chief executive rose, the great
crowd simply went wild. Minute af-
ter minute the cheering rolled and re-
verberated over the historic hill
President Roosevelt wore Prince
Albert coat, grey striped pants, and
/ rundown collar. His face and
lands showed little bronze and some
slight staches, received in his Lou-
isiana bear hunt. The chief magis-
trate beamed with smiles throughout
out the speech. AT times his voice
seemed to fail him.
The scene is absolutely indescrib-
able when he generously paid tribute
to Jefferson Davis and L. Q. C. La
mar saying:
81 am glad to be here in this his
toric city, this city forever memora-
Bile because of the heroic service In
which victor and vanquished alike,
showed such splendid courage, such
splendid fealty to the light as it was
given to each, and before the Civil
War Mississippi's sons had shown
that they knew how to fight. 1t was
from Vicksburg that a company came
of that Mississippi regiment which
won undying renown in the Mexican
War under the gallant leadership Of
its ex-colonel who afterward became
the favorite son. not only of Mis-
sissippi, but of all tie South-Jeffer-
son Davis. (Applause.) And oh, my
fellow citizens think how fortunate

before Secretary Metcalfe, propos-

of the Panama canal, which is now
planned at 100 feet in the locks. The
recommendation is based on the rapid
increase of the beam in naval coll
struction since the canal plans were
formed. Secretary Metcalfe will take
up the matter with the president as

we are, think what good fortune is
ours as a Nation that it is possible
for the President of the Nation to
come here today to be conducted
through your National Park by the
surviving acknowledgement of the
Confederate army applause and to
feel that every instance of heroism
recorded by the monuments alike to the
Union aid the Confederate dead on
that battlefield is subject for just
pride to every citizen Of this Nation,
no matter where he lives. (Applause)
And Gen. Lee read to me that noble
inscription on the Pennsylvania mon
ument an inscription that should
make the heart of every true Ameri-
can thrill as he reads it: "Here
brothers fought for their principals
here heroes died for their country
and a united people will forever cher
ish the precious legacy of their noble
manhood" (Applause.) What 9th
er war is there of which we can say
that before the generation that
fought it had died away, the whole
country rises to feel the same tri-
umph alike for those who fought 50
valiantly for what they believed to be
right and triumphed, and for those
who fought so valiantly for what they
with equal sincerity thought to be
right and lost.
What the President said of the
President of the Confederacy was not
much, if isolated from the unuttered
significance which was voiced in the
applause of the audience. Thus IL
terpreted it meant a great dealt
was the long waited for world in sea
son. In it the President made good
with the South. In SO saying The
Herald does not 0verstate, or pre-
sumo. We simply give expression to
an unmistakable demonstration OF a
very large audience of the people Of
Mississippi and Louisiana. To no
other of his captivating and magnetic
appeals on Southern soil, could the de-
scription of the object achieved be
applied For in all the rest there has
been something wanting-a shadow,
or barrier, has interposed between
the president and the heart Of the
South. What this was need not be
specified save in the statement that
it was all swept away-the accoun;
was squared-in the glowing tribute
bestowed upon jefferson Davis. All
the force and impressiveness that
could flow from that tribute, was
given fitness and emphasis b. being
uttered in Mississippi, in Vicksburg
and Warren county, the home OF the
favorite son of the state and the
South.
President Roosevelt began speak
ing at 2 minutes after 4 o'clock and
spoke 81 minutes.
Fully 10000 people of Mississippi
and Louisiana participated in the roy
al reception rendered the nation 3
chief executive. From 10000 to 15,-
900 visitors came to the city to help
Vicksburgers welcome him.
The city was a brilliant mass of
color. The day was ideal. The peo-
pie were enthusiastic. The president
was happy. On the whole it was a
wonderful day.
