C., April 9.-This was President's d iy at tho exposi tion. The events ol the day began with a grand procession through tho streets of Charleston, and afterwards there wore speeches in the exposi tion auditorium, tho presentation of a sword by tho President to Major Micah Jenkins, a luncheon at the Woman's building and inspection of tho grounds and buildings. The parado was tho most impor tant that Charleston has ever seen. Besides the President and distin guished visitors, United States artillerymen, United States marines and Jackies, there wore soldiers from various States and cadets from two military academics. Sixty thousand persons attended tho exposition to-day, tho greatest crowd this city has known in her history. Tho reception to thc President has been even moro than enthusiastic. Thousands have shouted themselves hoarse. His trip from tho city to tho grounds was a continual ovation from the moment tho journey began until he left the grounds. Tho weather to-day has been per fect. Tho air was bracing and a pleasant breeze waa blowing inshore. There was not a cloud in the skies. There has not been a hitch in the execution of thc program as ar ranged, and everything has passed off smoothly and pleasantly. The Presidential party was driven directly to tho exposition auditorium where thc President reviewed the troops from a platform erected at that point. Thc President's salute of 21 guns was tired by tho German artillery on tho entrance of the President to tho exposition grounds. At noon thc President proceeded to tho auditorium, where tho formal ceremonies occurred. Addresses were made by Captain F. W. Wago ner, president of thc South Carolina Inter-State and West Indian Expo sition company ; Governor Mc sweeney, of South Carolina ; Gover nor Aycock, of North Carolina; Mayor Smyth, of Charleston, and the President of tho United States. President Roosevelt, in his address at the exposition grounds spoke as follows : "It is to me a peculiar privilege to speak hero in your beautiful city. My mother's people were from Geor gia ; but before they canto to Geor gia, before the revolution, in thc days of colonial rule, they dwelt for nearly a century in South Carolina, and therefore I can claim your Stnto as mino by inheritance no loss than by me and ylning !

"Charleston is not only a typical Southern city ; it is also a city where history teems with events which link themselves to American history aa a whole. In the carly colonial days Charleston was thc outpost of our peoplo against tho Spaniard in the South ; in tho days of tho revolution there occurred here some of the events which vitally affected the outcome of tho struggle for inde pendence and which impressed them-1 selves most deeply upon the popular mind. "It was hero that tho treradYidous, terrible drama of civil war opened. With delicate and thoughtful cour tesy you originally asked mo to come to this exposition on the birthday of Abraham Lincoln. The invitation not only showed a fino generosity and manliness in you, my hosts, but it also emphasized what hardly any thing else could emphasize, how completely wo are now a united peo ple. The wounds left by thc groat civil war, incomparably the greatest war of modern times, havo healed and its memories aro now priceless heritages of honor alike to tho North and to tho South. The devotion, tho self-sacrifice, the steadfast reso lution and lofty daring, tho high de votion to the right as each man saw it, whether Northerner or South erner, all these qualities of men and women of tho early sixties now shine luminously and brilliant before our eyes, while tho mists of anger and hatred that once dimmed them have passed away forover. All of us, North and South, can glory alike in thc valor of the men who wore the blue and of thc men who wore the gray. Those were iron times and only iron men could light to its terri ble finish tho giant struggle betweou tho hosts of Grant and Leo. To us of tho present day and to our chil dren and children's children, tho valiant deeds, the high endeavor and abnegation of self shown in that struggle by those who took part therein will remain forevermore to mark the level on which we in our turn must risc wherever our nation's need may como. "When four years ago this nation was compelled to face a foreign foe, tho completeness of tho reunion be came instantly and strikingly ovi dent. Tho war was not ono which called for the exercise of more than an insignificant fraction of our strength, and tho strain put upon us was slight indeed compared with the results. L'ut it was a satisfactory thing to ace tho way in which sons of thc soldier of tho Union and soldier of tho Confederacy leaped eagerly forward, omulous to show in broth erly rivalry the qualities which had won renown for their fathers, the men of the great war. It was my good fortune to servo under an ox Confederatc General, gallant old Joe Wheeler, who commanded tho cav alrymen at Santiago. In my regi ment there were mon whose fathers had served in tho Southern as there were men whoso falliera had served in the Northern army. Among tho captains there was opportunity to promote but ono to a field rank. The man who wns singled out for this promotion, becauso of conspicu ous gallantry in tho field, was tho son of a Confederate general and was himself a citizen of this, the Pal metto State, and no Amorioan officer could wish to march to battle beside a moro loyal, gallant and absolutely fearless comrade than my former captain and major, your fellow-citi zen, Micah Jenkins. "A fow ex ntlis ago, owing to tho enforced absence of tho Governor of the PhilippineH, it became necessary to nominate a Vice Governor to take his place-one of the most important places in our government at this time. I nominated a8 Viee Gover nor an ex-Confederate, Gen. Luke Wright, of Tennessee. It is, there fore, an ex-Confederate who now stands as the exponent of this gov ernment and this people in that great group of islands in tho East ern seas over which the Amerioan flag floats. Gen. Wright has taken a leading part in the work of steadily bringing order and peace ont of the chaos in which wc found tbe islands. Ile is now taking a leading part, not morely in upholding the honor of tho flag, by making it respected, as tho symbol of our power, but still moro in upholding its honor by un wearied labor for tho establishment of orderly liberty, of law-creating, law-abiding civil government under its folds. "The progress which has boen made under Gen. Wright and those like him has been indeed marvelous. In fact, a letter of the General's the other day seemed to show that he considered there was far moro war faro about the Philippines in this country thnn there was warfare in tho Philippines themselves. It is an added proof of tho completeness of the reunion of our country that ono of the foi imost mon who have been instrumental in driving forward the groat work for civilization and humanity in the Philippines has been a man who in the civil war fought with distinction in a uniform of Confederate gray. "If ever tho need comes in the future, the past has rando abund antly evident tho fact that from thie time on Northerner and Southerner will in war know only tho generous desire to strive how each can do thc more effective service for the flag ol our common country. Tho same thing is true in the endless work ot peace, the never-ending work ol building and keeping the marveloui fabric of our industrial prosperity The up-building of any part of om country is a benefit to the whole, ant every such effort as this to stimulati the resource and industry of a par ticular section is entitled to tin heartiest support from every quarto of the Union. Thoroughly goo< national work can bc done only i each of us works hard tor himsel and at the same timo keeps constantl; in mind that he mist work in con junction with others. "You havo made a particular effor in your exhibition to get into t?uol with tho West Indies. This is wisc The events of the last four year have shown us that tho West Indie and the isthmus in the future occup a far larger placo in our natioiu policy than in the past. This i proved by tho negotiations for th purchaso of the Danish islands, th acquisition of Porto Rico, the prep* ration for building an isthmian cann and finally tho changed rclntior which theso years have produce between us and Cuba. As a natio we have an especial right to' tak honest pride in what we havo dor for Cuba. Our critics abroad an at homo havo insisted that wo nov? intended to leave tho island. Bi on tho '20th of nOxt month Cut becomes a freo republic, and we tui ovor to the islanders the control i their own government. It would I very difficult to find a parallel in tl oonduot of any other great Sta that has occupied such a position ours. Wo have kept our word at done our duty just as an -dione individual in private lifo keeps 1 word and does his duty. "Bo it remembered, however, th after over three years' occupation tho island, we turn it ovor to t Cubans in a better condition than ever has boen in tho conturies Spanish mic. This has a dire ! bearing upon our own welfa; ! Cuba is so near to us that wo c j never be indifferent to misgovei mont and disaster within its limi Tho moro fact that our administi tion in tho ?Blands has minimized t dangor from tho dreadful scourge yellow fevor alike to Cuba and ourselves, is sufficient to emphas the community of interest botwo us. But thoro are other intere which bind us together. Cub position mnkes it necoBsary that h political relations with us should d fer from her politioal relations w other powers. This faot has b( formulated by us and accepted tho Cubans in the Platt amondmer It follows as a corallary that wh tho Cubans have thus assumed BS float Cough Syrup. Tiuitea 0<xX Veo W? In Ump. Bold by drugglntn. MP position of relationship to our politi cal system they must similarly stand in a peouliar relationship to our ?conomie system. "We have rightfully insisted upon Cuba adopting toward us an attitude ' differing politically from that she adopts toward any other power ; and in return, as a matter of right, we must give to Cuba a different-tb \t is, a better-position econiraioaUy in her relations with us than wo give to other powers. This is the course dictated by sound policy, by a wise and far-sighted view of our own interest and by the position we have taken during the past four years. We are a wealthy and powerful country, dealing with a muoh weaker one ; aud the contrast in wealth and strength makes it all the moro our duty to deal with Cuba as we have already dealt with her, in a spirit of large generosity. "This exposition is rendered pos sible because of tbe period of indus trial prosperity through whioh we aro passing. While material well being is never all-sufficient to the life of a nation, yet it is the merest truism to say that its absenoe meane ruin. We need to build a highei lifo upon it as a foundation ; but we can build little, indeed, unless this foundation of prosperity is deep and broad. Tho well-being whioh we aro now onjoying oan be scoured only through general business pros perity, and such prosperity is condi tioned upon tho energy and hard work, the sanity and the mutual respect of all classes of capitalists largo and small, of wage-earners ol every dogree. As is inevitable in t time of business prosperity, some men succeed more than others, anc it is unfortunately also inevitable that when this is the ease some un wise people aro sure to try to appea to tho envy and jealousy of thoa? who succeed least. It is a goot thing when these appeals are niad< to remember that while it is difficul to incroase prosperity by law, it i easy enough to ruin it, and tha there is small satisfaction to the les prosperous if they succeed in over throwing both the more prosperou and themselves in the crash of common disaster. "Every industrial exposition of thi typo necessarily calla up the though of the complex social and eoonomi questions which are involved in ou present industrial system. Our a? toUnding material prosperity, th sweep and rush rather than the mei march of our progressive materit development, have brought grav troubles in their train. We cannc afford to blink at these troubles an more than because of them we ca afford to accept as true the gloom forebodings of the prophets of evi There are great problems before u They aro not insoluble, but tht can bo solved only if we approao them in a spirit of resolute fearles ness, of common sense and of hone intentions to do fair and equal ju tico to all men alike. We are certa to fail if wo adopt the policy of tl demagogue, which raves against tl wealth which is simply the form embodied thrift, foresight and i tell;gence; who would shut the do of opportunity against those who energy we should especially fost< by penalizing tho qualities whit tell for success. Just as little ci we afford to follow those who fe to recognize injustice and to e deavor to cut it out because tho ta is difficult or even-if performed 1 unskilled hands-dangerous. "This is an era of great combir tions, both of labor and capital, many ways these combinations ha worked for good, but they must wc under the law and the laws concei ing t IK KI must be just and wise j they will inevitably do evil, and tl applies as muoh to the richest con ration :is to tho most powerful lal union. Our laws must be wise, sai healthy, conceived in tho spirit those who scorn the moro agit?t tho moro inciter of class or scotio hatred, who wish justice for all mc who recognize the need of adheri so far as possible, to the old Amt can doctrine of giving the wid possible scope for the free exerc of individual initiative and yet v? recognize also that after combi tions havo reached a certain stag? is indispensable to the goneral v fare that the nation should exer< over them, cautiously and with a restraint, but firmly, tho power supervision and regulation. "Above all, tho adrainistratioi tho government, the enforcemen the laws, must bo fair and hon Tho laws aro not to be administe oither in tho interest of the fl man or the interest of the rich n They aro simply to be administe justly ; in tho interest of justic each man, bo ho rich or be ho poe giving immunity to no viola whntover form the violation i assume. Such is tho obliga whioh every public servant takes, to it he must bo true under pen of forfeiting tho respect both of 1 self and of his fellows." The Jenkins Sword Presented. Immediately after the addrei a handsome sword was pr?sent?e Major Micah Jenkins, tne prese tior being made by President Re velt. Tho sword was handed to President by Ex-Governor Hug Thompson. In presenting tho sword to P dent Roosevelt to be given M Jenkins, Ex-Governor Hugh Thompson said : "Mr. President-On behalf South Carolina friends of W Micah Jenkins, I have the hono offer you their greetings and to ask that you will present a testimonial of their regard and esteem to your gal lant comrade in arms in the war with Spain. That war was worth all that it cost in blood, in treasure, if for no othor reason than that it I aroused a spirit of patriotism whioh Cemented anew the bonds of union amoug our once divided people. When the mnoko of hutt lo oleared away, and honors and rewards were distributed, the people of South Carolina saw with just pride that Micah Jenkins had won the laurel leaf and that in recognition of his services he had been promoted, on your recommendation, from a junior captain to major. His gallantry vividly recalled memories of his heroic father, Brigadier General Micah Jenkins, whose name and fame aro dear to South Carolinians. It was the son of this sire of whom you said that he was a gentle and courteous South Carolinian, upon whom danger aoted like wine. "In aotion he was a perfeot game oook and he won his majority by gallantry in battle. In token o? their regard, some of his friends have bad made this field officer's oavalry sabre whioh has been fash ioned with rare skill and taste. Upon one side the scabbard bears a palmetto tree and an inscription showing by whom and why it is given, and that it is presented by you ; upon the other is an extract I from the history of the Rough Riders, I in whioh you commanded Major Jenkins. 'Mr. President, the men and women of South Carolina, who greet you to-day," have come to testify by their presenoe their esteem for your oharaoter, their admiration for your achievements and their respect for the office which you fill-the highest I in human gift. They will be ani mated by sentiments of pride and patroitism as they see one native to their soil who itt honored by the j chief magistrate. These sentiments, I know will stir the breast of Major Jenkins ; but he will be inspired by another sentiment, not less noble, whioh none can share with him-a sentiment of gratitude that he re ceives this sabre from the hands of his beloved commander, under whoso eyes he fought and whose warm commendation he won for effioionoy, for soldiership and for gallantry in aotion. "Permit me, Mr. President, to hand this sabre, with the request that you present it to Major Jen kins." In handing the sword to Major Jenkins, the President said : "Major Jenkins, nothing could give mo guater pleasure than to land you, my old friend and oom-1 rade, whose courage I saw again and again, and whose oourago was of a temper that made it indifferent what the trial was, to hand you this sabre. " am glad to do it, as a guest of South Carolina, as the President of the United States, but gladder to do it as your old friend and comrado." The sword is a beautiful weapon. AFTER MANY YEARS Of suffering from kidney disease, Miss Minnie Ryan, of St. Louis, Mo., found a complete cure result from the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It is such cures as this which es tablish the sound ness of Dr. Pierce's theory: "Diseases which originate in the stomach must be cured through the stomach." ?very other organ depends on the stomach for its vitality and vigor. For by the stom ach and its asso ciated organs of digestion and nu trition the food which is eaten is. converted into nu triment, which, in. the form of blood,' is the sustaining power of the body, and eaoh organ of it. When the stomach is dis eased the food sup ply of the body ls cut down, the or gans are starved, and the weakness of starvation ?hows itself in lungs, heart, 'iver, kidneys or some other organ. Dr. Pierce's G ?Iden Medical Discovery cures diseases of th? stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition, and so cures disease of other organs which have originated through deficient nutri tion or impure blood. ?I bad b??n suffering- with kidney trouble twenty vesta," writes MU?
