The Lexington Dispatch. Wednesday, April 16, 1902. ^RESIDENT'S ADDEESS." A Strong. Interesting and Earnesi Talk--A High Tribute to Major Jenkins. Charleston, April 9 ?"It is to me a peculiar privilege to speak here ir your beautiful city. My mother* pecple were from Georgia, but before tbey came to Georgia, before the Revolution, in days of Colonial rule tbey dwelt for nearly a century ir South Carolina, and therefore I car claim your state aa mine by inheri tance, no less than by a stronger anc mofcpe fianrr fnOl UUKSl^l ??u*vu mvmvs/ - of American soil in a sense the prop erty cf all Americans. 'Charleston is not only a typical Southern city: it is also a city where history teems with events which lioi themselves tD American history as a whole. It was here the tremendous, terrible drama of the civil war opened. "With a delicate and thoughtful courtesy you origiDally asked me to come to this exposition on the birthday of Abraham Lincoln: the invitation not only showed a generosity and manliness in you, but also emphasized what hardly anything else could emphasiza?how completely we are now a united people. The wounds left by the great civil war, ineomnarablv the greatest war of ^ ^ o modern times, bave healed and its memories are priceless heritages of honor ali|ie to North and to South. "Those were iron times and only iron men could fight to its terrible finish the giant struggle between the hosts of Grant and Lee. "To us of the present day and to our children, and children's children the valiant deeds, high endeavor and abnegation of self 6hown in that struggle by those who took part therein will remain forevermore to mark the level in which we, in our turn, must rise whenever our nation's ]jeed may come. "When four years ago this nation was compelled to face a foreign fee, completeness of reunion became instantly and strikingly evident. It was mv erood fortune to serve under an ex-Confederate Genera), the gallant old Joe "Wheeler, who command* ed the cavalry at Santiago. In my regiment there was certainly as many whose fathers had served in Southern as there were men whose fathers served in the Northern army. "Among the Captains there was an opportunity to promote but one to field rank. The man who was singled out for the promotion, because of hie conspiciuous gallantry in the field, was a son cf a Confederate General and was himself a citizen of this Palmetto State; and no American officer could wish to march to battle beside a more loyal, gallant and absolutely fearless comrade than my former Ciptain and Major, your fellow citizen, Micah Jenkins. "A few months ago, owing to the enforced absence of the governor cf the Philippine?, it became necessary to nominate a vice governor. I Dominated an ex Confederate, General Lake Wright of Tennessee. It is therefore an ex-Confederate who now stands as exponent of this government and this people in that great group cf islands. ikThe progress made under Wright, and those like him, ha9 been marvellous. In fact a letter of the general's the other day seemed to show that he considered that there is far more *arfire about the Philippines in this country than there was warefare in the Philippines themselves. "You have made a particular effort in your exhibition to get into toucfc with the West Indies. This is wise ' The events of the last four years have shown us that these West Indies and the Isthmus in the future will oc copy a far larger place in our nation a! policy than in the past. This wag proven in negotiations for the pur chase of the Danish Islands, and acquisition of Porto Rico, and in preparation for building an Isthmian canal #, *. /I v, r. 11 n Uf? f b a i? r> />/ /] v/iln tiAnr MXiU XIU Hi IJ UJ tuc tuau^tu iciauuu; which theso years bav,s produced between us and Cuba. v*We have rightfully insisted upon Cuba adopting toward us an attitude ditV ring politically from that which she adopts toward any other power: and, in return, as a matter of right, we must give to Cuba a different? that is, a better?position economically in her relations with us than we give the other powers. This is, of course dictated by sound policy, by a i ^ wise and far-sighted view cf our owu interest and by the position we have ' - iV - JL t _ taken during toe past iuur jeaio We are a wealthy and powerful 3 country, dealing with a much weaker 1 one, and the contrast in wealth and 3 strength makes it all the more our 3 duty to deal with Cuba as we have 3 already with her, in a spirit of large ? generosity. 1 "Our astounding material pios1 perity, the sweep and rush rather " than the mere march of cur progressi - ? j i 1 ive and material development, nave " brought grave troubles in their train. We cannot afford to blink at these troubles any more than because of ' them we can aff >rd to accept as true the gloomy forebodings of prophets : of evil. i "There are great problems before , us. They are not insoluble, but tbey can be solved only if we approach them in a spirit of resolute fearless> ness, of common sense and of honest j ! inlonHon tn dn fair ?nd rrm?l inatieA I iUlCUHVU tv V4V ^ J ? ? I to all men alike. We are certain to fail if we adopt a policy of the demagogue who raves against wealth, which is simply a form of embodied thrift, foresight and intelligence; who would shut the door of opportunity against those whose energy we should especially foster by penalizing qualities which tell for success. Just as little can we afford to follow those who fear to iecognize injustice and to endeavor to cut it because the task is difficult or even?if performed by unskilled hsnds?dangerous. "This is an era of great combinations both of labor and of capital. In many ways these combinations have worked for good, but they must i work under law and laws concerning them must be just and wise, or they will inevitably do evil; and this applies as much to the richest corporations as to the most powerful labor uoion. Our laws must be wise, sane, healthy, conceived in spirit to those who scorn the mere agitator, mere ci'er of class or sectional hatred; : who wish justice for all men; who recognize the need of adhering so far as possible to the old American doctrine of giving the widest possible scope for the free exercise of the individual initiative and yet who recognize also that after the combinations have reached a certain stage, it is indispensable to tbe general wellfare that that nation should exercise over them, cautiously and with self restraint, but firmly, power of supervision and regulation. "Above all the administration of government, the enforcement of laws, must be fair and honest, the laws not to be administered in the interest of the poor man or in the interest of the rich man. Tbey are simply to be administered justly, in the interest of justice to each man, be be lich or j UC UB jJUUI , glVIUJ* 1 LLI LLi U LI 1 Lj tU UU I I violator, whatever form violation may | assum." A Valuable' Medicine ? For Coughs and Colds in Children. "I have not the slightest hesitancy in recommending Chamberlain's Cough Remedy to all who are suffering from coughs colds,'1 says Cbas. M. Cramer, E-q., a well known watch maker, of Colombo, Ceylon. "It has been some two years since the city 1 dispensary first called my attention j ' to this valuable medicine and I have ( repeatedly used it and it has always 1 been beneficial. It has cured me 1 quickly of all chest colds. It is especially effective for children and ' seldom takes more than one bottle to 1 cure them of horseness. I have per suaded many to try this valueable 5 medicine, and they are all as well ^ pleased as myself over the results." For sale by J. E Kaufmann. A Side Primary.

If reports be true, Jim Tillman is ^ somewhat of a humorist. The question has often been asked, what will Tillman do with the sword which Jenkins refused to accept after Till- , L t man withdrew the invitation to Iwoos- , j ' I velt to present it. It is reported < v. that this question was a?-ked Tillman i and that he replied that he intended . to have the inscrintion on the sword , i j i changed so it could be given N. G Gonzales as a reward for his cocspicious gallantry and great services in behalf of Cuba libre. As it is not fair to tell half of a joke, it mnst be admitted that Tillman further said he would request Geo. R. Koester to present the sword with an appropriate speech in which due reference would be made to the horse which Lieutenant N. G. Gonzales sacrificed } upon his country's altar. After that, nobody need deny that Jim Tillman isahumorist. He has the joke on two * editors who have roasted him. !
