This Is a well-rounded period. Is

eloquent Southerner, and may faithful

group of white Southern Republicans,

South" In view of the real facts, Im
parts to It the quality of a Jest Mr.
Harry Stillwell Edwards could hardly
have meant to speak for the South aa
a whole, nine-tentha of the white peo
ple of this section being In sympathy
with the Democratic party, yet he as-
serts that Roosevelt Is bringing the two
sections together "In the bonds of the
old affection." thus acclaiming him as
the great peace maker and healer of
old wounds.
This la Indeed extraordinary, and the
scoffing rejoinder* of Southern edltora
are not to be wondered at. The Mem
phis Commercial-Appeal, for example,
‘ haa this and much more to aay: "Mr.
Edwards' picture of the President la
ludicrously untrue to Ilfs; and the
South regards him as a selfish point
clan, full of blow nnd bluster, a herald
of sectional hate, a man of no moral
courage, and a marplot who, for hla
own selfish advantage, la willing at any
time to bring on the deluge."

proaUU ut full Justice may not agree
with the Memphis editor In every par
