(ideut that Mr. Roosevelt in j I tends to do all in his power to | help advance th? present move-' j ment to lintl larger and botier | (ields for the products of tho j cotton mills of this country. The Colonel was also most! ; favorably impressed with Mr. | Roosevelt himself. He has no I 1! doubt that tho President is s'n? coro in his declarations of friend ship and good will toward the South. Me believes that Mr. Roosevelt is honestly endeavoring to promote the interests of tliin section os well as all othcis i He sn V3 the chief trouble with the President is his views on the i negro question, but tie thinks that in time ho will real./a tho ; error of his position on that subject ' Evidence of such realization i is already apparent, Col.
