President Fred w GoodingS annual
address was as follows,
Ladies and Conference.-The forty.
sixth annual convention of the Ma
tional Wool Growers, association, now
in session, is without doubt the most
important ever held by this associa-
ton. There are many reasons WHY

questions of importance 10 be dis
cuSSed at this meeting, perhaps the
most important are the tariff, admin

serves, the 16-mile-an-bour law and
the national wool warehouse Other
questions of vital interest viii be
brought before you during the scs-
sions OF the association.
Since our last meeting the great
tariff question has been gone over and

United States TO ~ present conditions.
The woolcn schedules. however. were

that this schedule Is the most compl-

any section of the tariff bill, and but
for the hard anG persistent efforts of
the officers and memoV1s of this asso-
clation and of such men as Theodore
Justice and others. given TO the sena-
tors and representatives IN congress,
the result might have boon a reduc-
tion in the tariff charges on wool.
There is general misunderstand-

people of the United States, some of
them In high position. relative to this
phase OF the tariff question. Even
President Taft. in his Winona speech.
expressed the opinion that perhaps
the tariff charges on raw wool and
manufactured woolens were too high.
and that It was the only serious de
feet in the Payne tariff bill. People
in general, in discussing the tariff on
wool, think the cause of the raise in
the price OF articles manufactured OF
wool is due to the high tariff on that
commodity; whereas. as has been
stated many times before, il the raw
wool was given to the manufacturer.
IT would not make more than about
two dollars difference in the price OF
the average suit OF clothes, and OF
other wooden goods in proportion,

The speaker insisted thai O'Neal and Mallory were the logical can didates of the opposing factions that where an issue was settled for time and that both men are eminent in their profession, upright. learLed, Christian gentlemen.
 "Ine one represents the majority of white voters of Alabama, the other the minority, clearly defined by the result Of last Novembers election" the speaker said.
 He eulogized the consistency and the last campaign, declaring him to be mag niflcently equipped for the governorship, and predicting his nomination in May.
 Rodgers delivered a speech full of elo- quence and elogistic of the splendid quail ities of mind and heart possessed by Colonel O'Neal, whom ne declared to be the candidate of the great liberty-lovins Alabamians. These two speeches were brief but pointed, and met with tre- nendous applause.
 ONeal spoke for one hour covering the question at issue. and explaining the difference In the position he occupied from that of Mallory, the candidate of the minority. He declared that he stands up. on the platform adopted by the Mont SC mery conference, platform which has tho stamp of approval placed upon il by e majority of 27.0o0 of the white voters of the state, who on November 2s re. nounced the position occupied by MT.

 Colonel O'Neal's speech received mos responsive ovation. Many Confederate vet erans were in the audience, who knew and fought with General O'Neal. father of ths candidate and whose applause and hand. sl akes were mosr touching and inspr- irg.
