I think the Southern Commercial Con-
gress a most wise and expedient move
ment and I am heartily in accord and
sympathy with II.
The South in the last decade has made
great strides In the history OF this re-
public. When one looks upon her YER
dant fields, at her agricultural, horticul-
tUral. and viticultural interests; at her
marble quarries. stone quarries. her iron
mines. her phosphate mines. he cannot
help but look with awe and wonder and
I believe that It behooves every patriotic
Southerner who lives within the con-
fines Of the Mason and Dixon line TO
put his shoulder 70 the wheel and render
every possible means that lies within his
power 10 help foster the ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

CALLS FOR DEVOTION.

Mr. Parker IN his speech IN Washington
on March Is said that no cause on earth
dominated by any one man IS worth fol-
lowing. The cause must dominate the
man, and not the man the cause"
Therefore. the Southern Commercial
Congress is laid out on a democratic basis
for the benefit Of all, and not for the
benefit Of any one man or one interest or
one State.
The dominating idea Is that the South's
opportunity calls for mems devotion. The
IDEA IS great enough to satisfy the best
impulse OF the best men. It is for a
greater nation through a greater South %

SOUTH HAS RESOURCES.
Less Developed Than Any spot Ex-
cept the Arid West.

What does the South possess2
It possesses more physical advantages
in combination than any other portion
Of the Union And yet, excepting the arid
regions OF the West, the whole section
is the least developed OF all Is not that
enough 10 vivify the purpose Of every
good man2 We are blessed beyond meas
ure and yet halting along the initial
steps Of our development.
There can be no more thrilling condi-

veins courses the red blood Of a noble
ancestry.

the reservation when the beef distribu-
men were concerned, but the men who
did most toward reductions of the
schedules stood firm and suffered by
the knout. All these circumstances are
not calculated to impress with the sin
cerity of the effort to revise downward.
Had it not been for Cummins and his
colleague and a few other senators,
and a bunch Of insurgents who forced
the proceedings into the daylight OF
publicity, how much might the pres
ident find in the new tariff to justify
his party and himself?
There is no doubt that the republi-
can party meant revision downward,
revision that revises. We have secured
There has been some revision down
ward. Dolliver has explained how much
was intended by Aldrich in the sem
ate and Dolliver is entirely able to
explain as tariff maker with Ding
ley and with Mckinley. 1t was
shown that the protected interests had
set their VINO marks in tariff sched-
ules and that Aldrich and his follow
ing were content with the marking.
The debates have been Illuminating.
On the insurgent side they have been
strong in argument. The other side
the committeeships. But the tariff de-
bate may vet make some Iowa man
president: for the leadership of Iowa
insurgency got the country what it
has received in the way of downward
revision. The insurgents are entitled
to the credit of attempting to keep the
pledges of the party and of its candi-
date. Let he others have the commit
teestips.
The fight is over The law is the
law. Give it a fair trial. Upon it and
its provisions the next big fight will be
waged between the political parties.
Democracy will not be likely to let the
chance go by. The soothing suggestion
that the democratic party has never
known enough to take advantage of re-
publican mistakes, that it has never
had anything better to offer the coun-
try than we have had in operation and
that it isn't to be trusted in any way,
becomes comforting reflection.
But let the country give credit
where credit is due The credit for
downward revision will not be found in
the same box with the committeeships
distributed by Joseph Cannon.
