convictions led them that way. The Constltu-

tent of saying that they were right in giving
material expression to their true CONVICTIONS

uB TAFT AND THE SOUTH.

Mr. Taft's appearance on the stump in vari-
Gus Southern states has been fully justified in
moral results. il not in material ones He
frankly told the people Of Tennessee, North Car
oiina and Virginia that he did not expect to
get their support in the Electoral College, al
though he realized that a large element in the
Democratic party in the South would wish him
success while voting for his opponent Mr.
Taft had no illusions about the S0uth's inten
tons in the recent campaign. but lie felt il a
pleasant duty TO go among the Southern peO
PIE ard assure them that he did not regard them
as constituting for political purposes an isolated
sDd hostile community.
The vote in those Southern states In which
voting still means something indicates that Mr.
Taft's courteous attitude was not lost the
Southern public In Virginia additional seat
IN the House of Representatives has apparently
been Won by the Republicans. North Carolina
has sent three Republican Representatives 10
Washington and the Democratic majority in the
state has been decreased. The city OF Richmond
has for the first time IN years Republican
campaign conducted 10y the most respectable
and substantial element in the community. In
Georgia free speech and free division Of Opin-
ion have been countenanced. and both the Wat
son ticket and the Republican ticket have re-
ceived generous support The old Bourbon in
.tolerance has given way 10 libprality and mod
Grafton. and the South is beginning TO awake to
she fact that its own political and material de
velopmcnt has been retarded by the failure TO
encourage fits people to think and act for them
selves.
1t IS significant Of this new swing Of the pen
dulum that THE Atlanta Constitution" should
actually commend Southern white men for vot-
ing according 10 their convictions, instead of
