' ' This Southern City Entertains in Great Style. ALL FORMER EFFORTS OUTDONE After "Talking Through Georgia," Making a Half Dozen Speeches, the President-Elect is Greeted at the Georgia Capital in True Atlanta Style. Atlanta, Ga., Special.-President elect William: H. Taft was Friday in the cordial and hospitable embrace of Georgia. Recognizing the climax of the varied and continuous demonstra tions in the brilliant and imposing scene presented at the banquet here he exclaimed with evidences of great feeling: "I had not hoped to win the South, but the South has won me." The banquet was the most am bitious event of its kind the city bas ever undertaken. Though partici pated in by more than 500 of the city's representative men, it was gloried in by the entire population. It, and the preceding eloquence of welcome extended to Mr. Taft in his reception at the Capitol and at the Piedmont Hotel, where he was sought by thousands^constitute a brilliant chapter in his record of achievements south of Mason and Dixon's line. Talks Along the Way. "Talking through Georgia" is a literal description of his trip from. Augusta to Atlanta. And whereover the special train, which Atlanta pro vided, came to a halt there were cheering crowds evidencing their cor diality hy floral tributes, by cheers, bands and speeches in which the President-elect was told that he was respected, admired, loved* A little bunch of violets plucked from the grave of Alexander Steph ens and presented by a grandniece of the distinguished Georgian, touched a tender cord and brought forth a warm tribute to the memory of Stephens at Cr&wfordsville. The young men of Emory College were cheered on their 0&y at Coving ton and the girl students of Agnes Scott Institute at Decatur were ad dressed as "My Girl Friends", and talked to pleasantly. When Mayor Butler, of Madison, predicted "a term of eight years for Taft" the; big Ohioan responded by saying he hoped the mayor was a true prophet. Atlanta's welcome to Mr. Taft be gan in the railroad ya/ds where all locomotives tied open their whistles and ceased oQfo when he had retired for the night at his hotel. Thousands were at the station, thousands fol lowed him through the streets as he was drawn by four cream-colored horses to the Capitol. Governor Smith and a committee of seventy gave him a formal reception, after which the Governor presented him to the tremendous crowd and Mr. Taft once more voiced his i-eciprocity of cordality and good feeling at his re ception. He was at once escorted by a squad of mour.ted police to the Piedmont Hotel, where he was ten dered a re?eptiou by the chamber of commerce, the Ohio Society and Yale alumni. Governor-elect Brown came with Mr. Taft, Governor Smith received him and the officials of the city and State generally participated in his welcome. The features of the banquet includ ed not only the striking appearance of the high, pillared room, with its white walls, and flag scheme of dec orations, but a quaint programme of old-time negro songs illustrating the days, sung as solos by preachers, doc tors and judees. The tables were the streamers of two huge flags, the field cf each being formed hy the speakers' table set be fore a forest of palms and ferns. Di reotlv behind the guest of honor was an electric flag which not only waved but flashed forth a likeness of Mr. Taft when the President-elect arose to speak. A "Billy 'Possum." After the 'possum, 'taters and 'simmon bear had been served, and the many other courses of the feast, tho guests, led by the Orchestra, broke into song. Judge Taft joined heartily in tho merriment. He was presented with a "billy 'possum" constructed after the manner of the "teddy bear" to be the emblem of his admin istration. He was also made the recipient of a silver pfeket water flask, bearinT the coat of arms of Georgia, the gift of Mrs. James Longstreet. What was taken as the most lasting and satisfactory feature of Mr. Taft's speech was his expressed de sire to appoint to Federal positions in the South only such men ns stand high as citizens in the localities in which they live. Mr. Taft said with feeling that he was proud to have been the first Re publican candidate for the presidency who had carried his canvass south of Mason and Dixon's line. In concluding Mr. Taft said: "I beg those of my hearers who differ with me politically not to sup pose that their cordiality and courteous reception are misunder stood br me. I know that they spring ? ' a an earnest and patriotic desire to >ay proper respect to the great of' to which I have been elected, that they grow out of a sincere ;h and proper assumption that hav been elected to the chief magistrr. .

For a time in the House of Repref entatives it looked as though thc body would further resent the Pres dent's statements affecting membei of Congress and the secret service, b ordering the printing of two millio copies of the proceedings of last Fr day tabling his remarks.

Senator Culberson stated that h? proposed at the proper time to offei an amendment making the Speaker's salary $18,000, which would make i equa? to that of the Chief Justice oJ tho Supreme Court of the United States, and he added it had neve been greater.
