What Is the heritage of the new rentration at the 1 ?outtt front 4he old! Without consid- - eratlon'It might- seem to be tfarty - nothln'Of wealth It la rry lit" and a compared with t'ie heritage of money " being received by the new generation of to-day In the North It Is as nothing. The portion of education is scant. Lit : eralure, science and art have been lit ' tie enriched 'at the South during the laef one-third century. What, then of , the parsing generation? Has It been 1 a failure. Far, far from it. When time - , hat made plain what has been accom plknt'ij In the South In the past Kilrty three years, mankind will marvel at the yeniui and endurance of Hs people. Its ' Inheritances might be enumerated as i '- fellow: i , The defeat of Its fathers in war. A destroyed' labor system. ' ' Social anarchy- Political anarchy. Poverty. ' The earnest prejudice of the con querors in war. , ! It was burdened wltft an experiment as to the practlcabili'ty of political t equality with an Inferior and uneducat ed race. . It has been burdened with the pay ment of about or.e-thlrd of a collossal pension roll without receiving a cent in v , return. ' The past generation has borne these burdens as only the Anglo-Saxon race Is capable of doing. It has stood a bul wark against anarchy. Every man has . been a soldier In t'als war of a genera , - Hop, and every Anglo-Saxon household has been guarded by one of t'lrege sol- diers. Bjjf heroic conduct and steadfast ly SfnWhSi-'' ' baa-.-.-ijiiob - iiyiut-.uc aim yiiuiviajni.' ui me uuicr world has albout died away. New sys-1 tems of labor and new systems of in dustry.,have been created. Education has been again put upon a successful bases. A new Industrial system has been founded and put in operation. Dignity of' lab&r tyaa been established. The monopoly of the production of cotton ; has been maintained. There has been i "re-establishment of friendly relations and confidence, between the people of the North and South, Above all, the Chlistian faith has been better main tained and tburtfieR are better attended In the South to-day than in any other part of the United States. While this fight of a third of a cen- - tury Uas been going on for the preser vation of a. social status Uyu the Latin races pave failed to preserve in Cuba and 0uth America and for the saving of Anglo-Saxon civilization In the South, the foundation has been laid for a vast development of manufactures In - cotton, Iron and lumber. Vast ad . vantages" are now being turned over by the passing to 'the coming generation. Only a Utile a very little- part oMhe.se "advantages ar in money, but thir value is so great that tuey cannot be measured in money. The opportunity to make money ha just opened up and 17 the favorable conditions are the results of the work of a generation of men end Women who have borne with amazing fortitude es heavy burdens as any peo ple were ever called upon to bear. If .. every young man entering business or professional life to-day should build for his parents a home and maintain them for '.tie remainder of their lives, his debt to them would never be fully paid, even if the ordinary obligations of sons to parents In normal conditions be omit ted. The way is now clear for as good business in the South as at tho North. It Is clear for the people of both sec tions to work together for mutual Inter- est and advantage. The obligation of the coming generation to the one pass- ;ing U'very great and t'he opportunity 'opened up to the youth to-day Is practi- cally; without limitation. UtUAL X KOAD4.

He was enable to obtain any definite informa tion. In fact, when closely interrogat ed by Mr. Moss' the mayor retorted! 'None of your business," while Richard Croker, under similar pressure, replied: This is my private affair." Asked by Mr. Moss if he did not consult a judge of the Supreme Court aa to whether he waa bound to obey a Mazet committee subpoena, Mr. Croker replied: "No sir, you're dreaming."
