Beset with discouragements on every side, handicapped by lack of capita.l, and encompassed by difficul ties that called for the exercise of ex-b traordinary firmness, tact, industry and judgment, it has optimistically I, kept its face to the rising sun and succeeded where pessimism suggested failure. It has stimulated agriculture ~ and given a new impetus to manufac- I ture. It has encouraged the extension of the railroads through undeveloped communities, promoted irrigation for the arid wastes and fostered drainage for the lowlands. It has infused new' life into the cotton industry, now worth $900,000,000 a year to it and vies with the West in its ambition to wrest from England, through the help of the Oxford processes, which do here in two days that which requires thir ty weeks to accomplish abroad, that~ country's centuries old control of the world's linen market.
