SOUTHERN ENTERPRISE.
I speak of all this, sir, because, while occu
pying the position you do. of knowing no
North, no S utli, no East, no West, it wdi
give you pleasure to know that the south will
contribute her proportionate share to the fu
ture grandeur and glory ot the American re
public. The old mother of Presidents to-day
welcomes within her borders a President
of the United States, and 1 know
that ! voice the aentiineuts of this
vast multitude when I tender to yon
and the distinguished citizens and statesmen
who accompany you a sincere, hearty and
cordial welcome to Virginia. Virginians not
only feel most profound veneration for the
high office whose duties you so ably discharge,
but they respect the man who tills it. we
share, sir, the feeling so prevalent elsewhere
that under your administration the destiny
of the country has been com
mitted to wieo. conservative and safe
hands, and that constitutional liberty is se
cure; aye. that constitutional liberty which
has been compared to the tail tree which cov
ers with its shade a large surface; whose
roots sho-u deep and wide through the soil
aud entwine themselves around the eternal
rocks, so that to pul! it down the earth itself
must be upioru. >Ve believe, Mr. President,
that you will staud firth in defense ol the
principles of the government inaugurated by
our forefathers.
CRITICISM SILENCED
Muttering* of discontent hare become hol
low-toned and recall from your armor of
right as the dashing surges rebound from the
rock barrm beach of the ocean.
From the stormy night ot the past we seeiu
to see you standing on the mountain tup like
another Moses bearing only in your hands,
with erect brow and res .lute fit-art. the tables
of the law, while marching o i, without fear
of obstacle or doubt ot victory. May your
administration bring to the whole country
l giit. life and hope, and may a prayer as
cend to oar fathers’ God "That the sword has
been beaten into (he plow-bare, and Uift spear
into the pruning horn;; that State shall not
lift nil its arm against State, neither shall
they know war any more;” but that the
reign of peace and prosperity shall be as last
ing as the home of the stars—ns eternal as the
foundations of the everlasting hills.
The President was introduced by Col.
Beverly, who, in behalf ot the farmers of
Virginia, welcomed him to their State.
Deafening and prolonged oheers and wild
waving of hats and handkerchiefs greeted
him.
THE PRESIDENT’S REPLY.
in a clear voice, loud enough to be
heard upon the borders of the great mul
titude he spoke as fellows;
Fellow Citizens of Vikoinia: While I
thank you mo-t sincerely loryour kind recep
tion aud recognize iu its lieuri mess the hospi
tality for which the people of Virginia h ive al
ways been distinguished.! am fully aware that
your demonstration of welcome is tendered,
not to an individual, but to an incumbent of
an office whicn crowns the government of the
United 8l .is. The stale of Virginia, the
mother of Presidents, seven of whose sous
have filled that high office, to-day greets a
President who, for the first time, meets Vir
ginians on Virginia’s soil, f congratulate
mysejf that my first introduction to the peo
ple of Virginia occurs at a time when they
are surrounded bv exhibits ot the productive
ness and prosperity of their Bute.
TRUE GREATNESS.
Whatever there mav be in honor in her his
tory and however much of pride there may be
in tier traditions, her true grea neßs is here
exemplified. In our sisterhood of states the
leading and most commanding place most I o
gained and kept by that commonwealth
which, by the labor and intelligence of her
citizens, can produce the most or those things
which meet t'he necessities and desires of
mankind. But the full advantage of that
winch maybe yielded to a State by the toil
and ingenuity of her people is uot measured
alone by the money value of the products.
TRUE AMERICANS.
The efforts and the struggles of her farmers
and her artisans not only create new values
in the field of agriculture and in the arts and
manufactures, hut they at the same lime pro
duce rugged, self-roliaut and independent
men, ana cultivate that product which more
than all others euobli‘6 a Slate— patriotic,
earnest American State—citizenship. This
will flourish iu every part of ihe American
domain. Neither drought nor ran can
injure it, for it rakes root in true hearis en
riched by love of country. There are no new
varieties iu this production. It must he the
same wherever seen, and its quality is u other
sound nor genuine unless it grows Lodtca and
beaut!fv an entire and united nation, nor un
less it supports and sustains the institutions
and govern meet founded to protect American
liberty unit happiness.
THE PRESENT ADMINISTRATION.
The present administration of the govern
ment is pledged lo return for such liut.andry
not only promises, but unua l tenders of
talrneiss and justice, with equal pnuictiou
am) lull participation m national achieve
ments. If In the past vre have been os; ringed,
and the cultivation of American eiliz tniblp
ha* been Interrupted, your eiutim- wt!-
cnmc of to-do./demonstrates that iln re is an
eml tosnob estrangement, and tat tho uine
of suspicion an . lour is succeeded by an ora of
faith and cuntldenco.
In wnii a *ind 1 y atmosphere and beneath
such cheering sklo* I grot-L tho people of Vir
ginia as co-tunorers in a Held whore grows
loro ofoar malted country.
God grant l liht .11 1 in > ears to come Virginia,
the Old Dominion, the mother of I'resiifeuls,
alio who looked oil the nation af its birlli,
may not only ini r ‘me her trophies of growth
111 agriculture uud manufacture. Imt ihsi she
may be among the first of all the States in tho
cultivation ol true American citizenship.

Chattanooga the First, to Disprove
Blaine’s Rhetorical Flights.
Chattanooga, Tenn., Oct. 21.—James
G. Blame, In his speech at Pittsburg yes
terday, referred to Chattanooga as a point
in the South where colored laborers are
paid lK)o. and 7l*c. a day. The Daily
Times, commenting on this speech, says:
“A careful investigation here reveals the
fact that the lowest wages paid to col
ored labors)* in any industry Is 110 c. per
day, and this rate covers only a lew at
the South Tredegar Iron Works The
greater number of colored men at those
works receive wages running front $1 to
$3 per day, with a large number at the in
leimediate rates ef $1 25 andsl 50 per day.
In every case where skilled colored
men are employed as healers, pud
dlers, helpers, etc., they get exactly
the same wage* as white men doing the
same work. The oolored laborers at the
Chattanooga furnaces getsl 25, $1 50 and
$2 per day, according to the skill, respon
sibility, etc., required to fill the various
plaeos in which they work. These are
representative Southern Industries.
What we say of Chattanooga In this re
gard apples to Birmingham, Knoxville
and other places. Colored boys in the
South Tredegar Nail Works working as
feeders, make from 75c. to $1 25 per day,
according to the skill and industry dis
played in their labor, riorao colored men
make as high as $4 per day as puddlers
and foundrymen in this section. We
may eay generally that the scale runs
tromsl to $1 50 tor the grout mass of col
ored men working in Southern manufac
tories.”

The National Cotton Planters’ Asso
ciation Committee Pleased.
Charleston. Oot. 21.—The oommitteo
appointed by tho N utional Cotton Plant
ers’ Association, consisting of the State
Commissioner of Agrioulture of Georgia

innti, Mississippi and Alabapia, accom
panied by Col. F. C. Morehead, President
ot tne association, witnessed the trial of
the Mason cotton harvester ai Sumter,
S. C., yesterday aud made an official re
port to-day. The committee say they
witnessed ibr tho larger part of the
day the practical operation of the har
vester in gathering seed cotton
from plants in the open field, and
that while some little and practicable
improvements are needed, the eommitteo
was agreeably surprised and gratihed to
witness in operation a machine approach
ing so closely to a practical and buccurs
ful cotton harvester, and ieel that they
can w ith confidence predict for the cotton
planter a machine that will in the near
future relieve him of the most distasteful
part and expensive Item of harvesting a
cotton crop.
ITS CAPACITY.
The commission say the machine was
easily hand led and authored at the rate
of 240 pounds of ootton per hour from con
ton plants that would not yield more tha t
one-third of a bale to the acre, and are
satisfied that with ootton yielding more
lo the acre the amount gathered would
Increase in propfirUon. The committee
could discover no damage done in the
operation of the machine to the plant
in any way, either to unopened
bolls, leaves or stalks, and re
port that the nmctiinu distinguished
between the open cotton and plant, gath
ering the one and leaving the other unin
jured, which, in tho opinlou of the com
mittee,hud beau an insurmountabledlfii
culty. The committee say there was
more cotton wasted on the ground than
they thought altswable, but at the sriuo
time they ure satisfied that muoh of sltuh
waste was caused by a slight delect In the
mechanism for bagging cotton, and like
wise by the fact that the cotton had been
open since early in August, and alter a
long drought was unduly sensitive to the
slightest touch.
