LEVERS SPEECH
IN SUPPORTING THE BILL MAX
ING APPROPRIATION
OF Over Eleven Million Dollars for
the Department of Agriculture Was
Good One.

In supporting the bill making ap-
preparations Of S11,431,346 for the
department Of agriculture, Represen-
tative Asbury F. Lever made an ex-
cellent speech. 1t was extended and
thorough, and as the agricultural de-
partment is now doing by Ear the best
work since its establishment, and as
it is doing at least as much for the
South as for any other section, and
as the South stands in greater need
of that assistance than any other Sec
ton, Mr.. Levers speech in the house
of representatives very appropriately
particularly directed attention to the
opportunities in the South, and the
tremendous !, undeveloped resources
Of the South. More addresses in con-
gress and in the North along similar
lines would bear rich fruit.
We quote an extract or two from
Mr.. Levers speech:
The true measure Of the industrial
greatness Of any country is the size
oe the bank books IF the ,arElcrs, and
their natural, inherent conservatism
is the true gauge of the character,
stability, and morals of it's citizen
ship.
Two hundred and six million acres
classified as unimproved farm lands
and millions OF acres of unclassified
land in the South await the elixir of
mans intelligence to lay at his feet
their immeasurably rick treasures.
(Applause.)
And in conclusion:
Such, Mr. Chairman sre our posi-
bilities, such are our opportunities,
such is the record we have made, and
today we stand upon the threshold
Of a great future, the greater tri-
jumps lie before us. Nature has
smiled upon this fair land, and the
smile has brought JOY to the hearts
of its people and strength to, their
arm. The celebrated poet, Emerson,
said: Amer is another name for
opportunity" and that unique char
acter, Greeley, enjoined, Young
man, go West and grow up with
the country" but If the great poet
and the great philos pher and editor
could see he So'.tn as she is today,
with her snowy fields of cotton, her
mountains Of minerals, her vast for
est areas, her granite beds, her coal
and iron deposits, her fertile plains
and unequaled climate, her long sea-
coast indented with Incompatible har-
bors; her rivers lacing her like ribbons
of silver, and her Teawakened, conf-
dent, and conquering people, the
conclusion Of the one would be, THE
South is another name for opportun-
ity" (applause), and the injunction
Of the other, young man, go South
and grow up with the country Cap
plause.) Mr.. Chairman, we read in
Holy Writ Of a
"good land, land, Of brooks of wa
ter, of fountains and depths that
spring out of valleys and hills; a
land of wheat and barley and vines
and fig trees and pomegranates; a
land of olive oil and honey; land
wherein thou shalt eat bread without
scarceness, thou shalt not lack any
thing in it; land whose stones are
iron, and out of whose hills thou
mayest dig brass.
And to me it reads like an inspir-
ed description of the South fronting
the future, confident, bouyant,
thrilled by an all-pervading spirit OF
progress. cloud applause.) 49,.
