"The citizen of New York. who is
concerned only with the selection of
an honest and efficient administrator,
will surely not turn to the Judge

Reviews Work Of Waterways conven

Led to Deepening of the

Natchez, Miss, Oct. 29.-In his
speech today Taft said:
THE problem c. developing the
utiliay of the great waterway that
flows at the bast of these bluffs is
i believe, in process Of solution. The
Mississippi river reminds one of a
great and powerful woman.
Properly directed (only by sug
gestion she is the greatest aid to
progress and happiness. But treated
without discretion, sought to be hem.
med in where she WILL by force OF
character, break out, she loses the 0p-
portunity for usefulness aad some.
times wrecks every thing she atri6ce.
That is the kind of a creature that
the waterways association invited the
speaker of the horse and his assc-
ciates, a quorum OF co nmittee OF
the states of the union, to study With
a view to controlling ana making the
most Of her. And we are going to DO
it.
Il have one ambition, perhaps
others, hut this one figures largely in
my dreams, and that is that when /
lay down office, the people OF the
south feel that the bonds between
them and other parts of the country
have been drawn closer.
In response to the continued calls
for Uncle Joe, Cannon reviewed tae
work Of the first waterway convention
at st. Louis in 1873, which led 10 the
deepening Of the sorth pass Of the
Mississippi delta, and minated that,
as that work followed a trip of con
.gressmen and senators who went
down the BRACES river, thence to the
mouth Of the Mississippi to New Or
leans. so might the present trim re
sult in anotheregfoat Work FOR tne in
