THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. uum*at, November lit 11^ HIGH TRIBUTE IS PAID TO JOHN TEMPLE GRA VES Hundreds of Foremost Men of South Gather at the Kimball to Do Him Honor. In the history of the South It Is doubtful If any private citizen ever went away under such a surpassing tribute of honor, eulogy, tenderness end tears ss were showered on John Temple Oraves at the great farewell banquet tendered him by F. L. Seely on Saturday night. It Is almost If not altogether without a' parallel. In sparkling water and with heart- some godspeeds,' J00 representative men of Georgia and the South bads farewell to Mr. Graves In the dining hall of the New Kimball. No more representative body of men ever gathered In this city, .where many great occasions have brought many wonderful assemblages. No more won ilet ful nor • more united • tribute was perhaps ever paid one of Georgia's private citizens than that paid to Mr. Graves, who goes from the editorship of The Atlanta Georgian to the editor' ship of The New York American. Journalists. Jurists, statesmen, gov ernors. United States senators, con gressmen, supreme court judges, great editors, great actors, his excellency, the governor of Georgia, and every calling, lawyer, physician, professional and business men In practically every walk of life were represented In the splendid gathering. Hearty and sincere praise fell from the lips of the many speakers for the honored guest and his host, F. L..Seely, proprietor of The Georgian. Through the heartsomeness of the godspeeds thero ran a tender vein of contact with Mr. Graves. And the man Who was the center of this occasion was profoundly moved by the sincerity of those who paid tribute to his worth and character, and the constant evi dences of approval of It alt from every one present. A Brilliant Scans. It was a brilliant scene when the great dining hall was thrown open shortly after 8 o’clock. At the center of the room running across one side of the room was the speakers' table. At the center of this sat Mr. Graves. Mr. fteely and Toastmaster 'Anderson, with the speakers for the evening on either side. Great banks of chrysanthemums graced the tables, while vases of them were scattered throughout all of the tables. A guest was seated at every cover provided. Indicating the presence of every one who had accepted the In vitation. , „ _ . The menu was perfectly served. There were oysters, planked fish, quall- on-toaat. coffee. Neapolitan cream and cigars. The service was admirable In every way.' Before the speakers on the program hesnn. letters and telegrams of regret were read from a number of dlstln- nul“hed people detained from attend ing At the list moment. Among these were: Governor Anlel. of South Caro lina; ex-Oovernor. D. C. Heyward, o: Mouth Carolina: Governor llloxham, of Florida; Governor Bwaneon, of Vlr- Cinia; Caperton Braxton, Virginia'! laat candidate for president; Cham - — “ John Wesley Gaines. Joel C Harris and many others. Mr. Hsarst’a Tel#Bram. William Randolph Hoarat, proprietor of The New York Amertcen. which pa. per Mr. Oraves will Join, wired, along with his cordial good wlehes, hie re- aret that imperative butlneas at the last moment would prevent hie attend ance. Much regret was felt at the In ability of the greet New Yorker to at- tend. There were many beautiful and touching Incidents during the evening. Once Harry L. Bchtealnser gross and proposed a toast to Mr. Oraves’ vener able father, oeneral Graves, who wss present. Every guest stood and drank In sparkling water to the venerable sire of the gueet of the evening. Again, while the orchestra was dis coursing. Ralph Bingham Improvised words for the occasion and sang them with fine effect and to tremendous ap plause. Then, when Mr. Beely pre sented Mr. Graves with the laurel wreath coming from a good woman In Florida, and the handsome cane, the gift of The Georgian family, the guest of honor was profoundly moved. No happier choice of toastmaster , ouM have been made than that of General Clifford L. Anderson. He has been a close personal friend of Mr. oraves for years, and to the highest degree poesetsee the qualities necessa ry for auch an occasion. When Mr. Orsvee arose to respond to the tributes that had bean poured •n lavishly at hta feet, he was moved to his depths. Tears came to his eyes as he spoke tenderly, lovingly, exqui sitely of his friends whom hs was leaving. As hs ceased and sank Into his seat, the great gathering broke Into that grand hymn, ‘‘God Be with You 'Til We Meet Again." Toaetmaster’s Opening Remarks. Toastmaster General Clifford L. An derson In his opening remarks said mat while the South sorrowed at the b>a- of Colonel Graves, It was recog nized that he had been called to one of thi highest places In ths Held of jour- . After paying tribute to He he said: lenry "Now another great Southerner has been called to high journalistic place i,, continue the work of Henry Orady— John Temple Graves. That he will wor thily uphold every tradition of the South we feet assured. “We have gathered here to give god speed to this gallant man, who soon goes to New York to assume the editor, ■hip of The New York American.” Senator A. 8. Clay. Senator A. S. Clay was the first speaker of the evening to be Introduced by Toaatmaster Clifford L. Ander. The senator spoke of the great pleasure It afforded him to be present on the oc caalon to do honor to a great Georgian and to bid him Ooodspeed to his broad, er fields of labor. “We are glad that hs has been pro' moted to larger flelds," said he, "and while we shall greatly miss him, yet we find consolation In the knowledge of the fact that New York will grow greater, stronger, wiser nnd better by the use of his brilllsnt Intellect, and the whole country will learn the value of good cltlsenshlp at the hands of this gifted dtlxen of Georgia. "The poeltlon Mr. Graves will occupy In New York will give him an oppor tunity to do Georgia nnd the entire South more good than he has ever done before, and Graves Ip equal to the task. He has alwsya been on the right side of every question which has ever been presented to the people of hts state. “And when has Graves ever failed? As a lecturer he has won the applause of great audiences wherever he has gone. Senator Gorman told me that he heard Graves once In Baltimore and that It was the greatest speech he ever heard. 'Graves loves the world and that's why he has succeeded. Jealousy never found a place In his heart; lie te al ways lovable, always building up and never tearing down, and no matter where he goes, we shall always love and honor him aa the son of Georgia.’ Bingham Tells Good 8torles.‘ Ralph Bingham, the Inimitable, de lighted the audience with his witty speech. “To be serious Is not a part of my profession, and as there are quite a number of serloue speakers here to night, I shall not attempt It. "I want to say, however, that few men are better known or abler on the platform than John Temple Graves, or no man the more perfect gentleman off or on It. He has brought fame to the South, greater fame than we perhaps realise.” He then told a rich story of a Bouth Carolina Chautauqua, where Bryan. Graves and hlinself were slated as at tractions. A merry-go-round man came and set up hie machine. An old farmer came to the Chautau qua and soma one met him. ‘‘Been to tho Chautauqua?" he asked the farmer. “I shore have. Rid on It six times,” was tho reply. He recited a poem, “The Old Cider Mill.” with tine effect, and waa ac corded prolonged applause. Mr. Bing ham nnally arose In response and told "( was traveling on the Rotten Belt railroad In a rattle car—there are no Pullmans on that line. I bought a ci gar—a flve-cent cigar—and gave the porter another one.." The porter told lilm a story of a col ored wedding. He gave an elaborate description of the bride. "But what about the groom?" he was asked. "He didn't show up." was tho reply. Stab Wright's Sparkling 8pesch. Hon. Seaborn Wright, of Romev pro yoked much laughter when he said that he gave hie consent to Colonel Graves' departure because he believes he will soon have Hearat nnd his great papers on the “band wagon” of prohibition anil do for the United States what he has helped do for Georgia. Mr. Wright told of his first meeting with Mr, Graves, which was In Rome several years ago. “I was sitting on a curbstone eating peanuts,” said hs, "and Mr. Graven came by riding an old-faahloned blcy cle—the first one I ever saw. He was attired In a Prince Albert coat and a high silk hat. He got ofr his wheel and made me divide my peanuts and 1 have loved him from that day to this and It Is with Intense pride that I coll him my friend. "Graves Is not only eloquent, but he has that In him which makes a strong man—high Ideals and devotion to the Ight •■•pi HON. JOHN TEMPLE GRAVES. The eyes of the people of my city follow him to New York, for we claim him aa our own son, and when he grows tired of work, when his hair whitens and his syes grow dim, wa want him to come back home and the old friends of hi* younger years will extend to him a wel come band." Dr. John E. White. Dr. John E. White, pastor of the Second Baptist church, began speech with a beautiful and touching tribute to Mr. Graves. ‘We are sharing In the Joy that comes In the recognition of this die tlngulshed guest. He Is hoist by his own petard. Be lias made It possible by his own ability to mount the tripod on one of the greatest Journals In the world. We are glad that he lias announced that he Is going to New York to work for the South. Colonel Graves lias aided In breaking down walls which have prevented the Bouth from getting all she Is entitled to. He Is going to New York, not to defend the Bouth. but to Interpret It. He Is not going ARROW C O LLARS there to win his spurs, but to try them." James Thompson, New Orleans. The address of James M. Thompsi publisher of the New Orleans Item, was. In part: “The same providence that has In trusted the Southern people with the most fertile area of the republic, and has blessed us with a prosperity above that of any other people, has laid problems upon us that demand the ilghest Intellect and strongest moral fiber of our leaders, for the necessary enlightenment of our people. “The guest of this evening Is a llvlni refutation of the modern theory o machine-made Journalism, of the Ide that tho directing brain and creattv force of our great journals Is forever submerged under the eoulless activities of a corporation. 'He Is a brilliant exception to the tendency of many great newspapers to stifle Individuality and check the battle for principle which the newspaper should always wage. 'AS I review the career of the bril liant. eloquent and able man, your guest tonight, who steps Into one of the highest and proudest positions ever attained In Journalism, 1 bear In mind the fact that ho has gained It, not be cause Ills voice Is sweet, not because his phrases have tho polish of the dia mond, not because lie has surpassed other men In Intellect: but because, ns he went along, lie lias had the oyes, the heart and the understanding to see and recognise God's own truth. And, knowing, he has had the courage to speak It In season, now, when It Is popular; and out of season there In the distant years when It was not pop ular, and when It was often very dan gerous, and when, perhaps, It was a toss up for him between God’s own truth and the full dinner pall. "John Temple Graves has always stood for the truth and the things that were true, as It was given him to see them, and that Is why Ills life and career are an Inspiration to every one of us little fellows who have sltten up through the lean yeare of southern newspaperdom and balanced our courses between principles, the paste- pot and the payroll. "That Is the reason why I love and admire John Temple Oraves." Governor 8mlth's Tribute. In Speaking of Mr. Graves' departure Governor Hoke Smith said; We come on this occasion with sor row mingled with pride. I am sure that I speak for Georgia and the South when I say that we have pride that one of Georgia's gifted sons has been ele vated to this high position of usefulness In Journalistic work. Graves will add credit and brilliancy to this great pa per that It never before possessed, nnd we give him up without a doubt as to the success that will bs his. He will have no peer In editorial Journalism In New York. "Those of us who have held conver sation with him have had him leave us with a feeling of Inspiration and the feeling that he has no unkind thought and nothing In Ills heart but sympathy and love for his fellow-men. "It has been a pleasure to read his editorials each afternoon, nnd wo. have read them with n feeling that no line or word could have Influence other than purification for the purest woman In the land. _ "There Is only one successor to Ora dy on the lecture platform, and that man Is Graves, and I now bring to him nnd lay before him the love of the whole people of Georgia and the South. "We shall miss him, but we have the consolation that he will not forget us and that he will return, and his return to us will be the occasion for even greater welcome than this which Is given him as he goes." First Effort a Poem. G. McLendon, chalrmnn of the Georgia railroad commission, spoke from his wheel chair feelingly of his old classmate. Many years ago the guest of honor offered with trembling hands his flrst manuscript for publication. It was «c. cepted. but had It been rejected I doubt If you would have had here tonight the greatest editor In the country. "Hts flrst offering was a poem, field which, I think, he Immedlately abandoned. The University of Ueorgla. class of 1875, gave John Temple Graves to Georgia us Georgia now gives him to the continent." A Fellow Editor's Tributt. Hon. Clark Howell, editor of The Constitution, said: have labored side by side with Graves in Atlanta tor many years and no one knows him better than I. I know him well and no man stands higher In the estimation of his people than does be. "I attended the some university that Graves attended. though 11 was some time afterward, and I am going to say HAVE THE INTER LINING CUT A WAY TO PREVENT' CRACKING AND TO GIVE GREATER FLEXIBILITY.

It was one of the tradi tions of that school that no man ever made love in more beautiful language than John Temple Graves, and he has never lost the power to charm with elo quent language. "Hearst could not have chosen a man to more perfectly All the bill of editing his great dally, and as he goes to take up his duties he leave* his heart as a hostage to the people of the South. "Graves 1* a great, big. broad, patri otic American dtlxen, who loves hi* | country and hit country’s flag, and he will speak for the whole country wher ever he goes. T know Into what Held Graves Is going, and I know who he Is going with, and, mark my word*, you will hear from him; and we of the South will feel the effecte of Graves' efforts among the people of New York. He does not go there as a stranger, for ha la known there as well aa he Is here for the bril liant work he has done In the newspa per Held for the past 35 years." Editor Asheville Citizen. J. H. Caine, editor of The Aahevllle Citizen, said a peculiar bond of sym pathy exists between North Carolina and Georgia, and his state,' therefore, felt a keen Interest In John Temple Graves. "It I* not only a great honor for an editor to have the love and esteem of his fellow-man, but It Is even greater when he has the love and confidence of hi* fellow-craftsmen. Such Is the cose with Mr. Graves. "He does not wait,to drop a flower on the casket of the dead, but gives them to the living. He will he 1 followed In his career In New York'by the great heart of the entire South.” Dr. L. G. Broughton, Dr. Len G. Broughton spoke of the great opportunity which Mr. Graves will have In speaking of the South and her Institution* by: reason of his high position In Nsw York. have loved and honored Mr. Graves for many, many years," said he. "I remember well the marvelous and matchless flow' of eloquence on the occaelon of my flrst meeting with him, when he was making a speech. The American platform does not contain n superior to Graves In the beauty of his diction and In his matchless eloquence. “1 am a great believer In the theory that the atmosphere of one's surround ings has much to do with his tempera ment, nnd I don't know how Graves is going to get along In the cold and merciless atmosphere of New York. “But be that as It may lie goes from us with the hearty Godspeed, good will and good chesr of the people who have and loved him so long." Florida Editor’s Praise, Rufus A. Russell, of The Jacksonville Metropolis, said he was delighted to be present on thin occasion. He aald: "My acquaintance with Mr. Graves dates back twenty-live years, when he came to Florida. We loved him, hon ored and believed In him, but Georgia came and took him away. “I am not afraid of whut he Is going to do. I know his capabilities and his great heart. He goea to New York to edit a great newspaper, and I know hla marvelous pen will be used In the right. "In the power and strength of his life he Is able to measure words with the Achilles of public opinion In this country.” Colontl Walter Andrewe. Colonel Walter P. Andrews said: “John Temple Graves Is not the son of any one state, nor section. His name Is loved and cherished by every soul In the whole South for with his tongue and pen he has communed with the people of every state. "Although Mr. Graves has never held a public office he le the best known und best loved of any private citizen In the country. He has been the evangel of the national eplrlt and has done as much or more than any other man to bring together all sections of the coun try In one bond of love und unity. "He has never been moved by preju dice to throw obstacles In the way of honest capital whether in the hands of individuals or corporations and when he has not been able to say something good he has not spoken at nil.
