THE AWAKENING SOUTH.
Houston PoSt.)


Though Henry ". Grady has been dead
many years, his influence still lives III the
awakening of the Consciousness of the peO-
pie of the South to the tremendous pos
sibilties Of material development that
awaited the intelligent direction of their
energies in the exploitation Of natural re-
sources of unparalleled richness. In his
writings and speeches. burning with clo-
quence of thought and expression, he gave
TO the South a new vision, 50 To speak. of
its coming greatness when its people should
grasp the fulncss Of his message and
energetically address themselves 10 the
task of bringing about its realization.
Amidst the desolation wrought by the
blight Of a four years war from which his
beloved Southland was but slowly emery
ing, his thouhgts turned to the tillers of
the soil and not iuirequently hi words
were directed in an effort t. uplift them
from the rut of dependency that oppre~~-
ed them under a system Of agriculture that
brought to them but a bare existence from
intending years Of hard tolls.
Forecasting what was to be and i now
coming to be mcaSurably realized, he
prophesied: "Wlicn every farmer III the
South shall eat bread from his own fields
and meat from his own pastures. and dis
turbed by no creditor, and cn~laved by no
debt, shall sit amid his teeming gardens
and orchards and vineyards. and diaries.
and barnyards, pitching his crops in his
" wisdom and growing them in indie
pendence, making cotton his clean surplus,
and selling it in his own time, and in his
chosen market, and not III a masters bid
ding-getting his pay in cash and not in
a receipted mortgage that discharges his
debt, but does not restore his freedom
then shall be breaking the fulne~~ of our
day"
This vision OF the "New South has been
steadily growing upon the Southern people
and, in awakened responsibility, they are
addressing themselves to the task OF max
ing it a reality with courage and determi
nation that is eifecting marvels in the way
of achievement. The South j. working ont
from under its burdens of the past and i
rapidly coming into its own a. the most
prosperous section OF the Union.
