ADDRESS BY DR. DABNEY
Great Opportunity Thrown
Away by Break With
Cleveland.
Knoxvillc. Tonn.. July 4.?In a no
Able Independence Day address on
"The South Henatlonallzed by Kducu- I
tlon." at the summer school ot the
South here. Dr. Charles W. Dabney, I
now president ot the University ot |
Cincinnati, but formerly president of
tho University of Tennessee, said in
part:
"After fifty years of separation from
the nation, tue Southern States have
become rcnatlonallzod, an'd taken their
places at the council table of the gov- '
ernment. That this actually has come
to puss is made evident by a House
of Representatives again controlled by
Southern men, by the recent presence
of Tennosseans In the Cabinet and by
the appointment of a Chief Justice,
who was 11 Confederate soldier. Onco
before. In IS93-'97, we came near tak-j
1hg charge of the governruent, and
fulled b cause, as 1 sincerely believe,
our people were not sufficiently edu
coted. and our leaders not sufficiently
unselfish to deserve the tusk.
"Referring to the attacks of Souin
erit Democrats upon him, Mr. Cleve?
land snid to nie in 1S98: "I believe the
Southern people are loyal and gener?
ous, yet their leaders truduce me,
though 1 was the first to invite them
back to their fathers' table.' Breaking
with Mm. the South threw away a
great opportunity to regain her posi?
tion in the nation.
"Tho South has passed from tile dls- I
cussion of states' rights and eonsti
lutlona] powers to the consideration
of States' needs and States' duties.
"Education and sanitation are now
the chief subjects of consideration in
our Legislatures, and the color Hue
and 'bloody shirt' are forgotten."
Tribute to Leaders.
Dr. Dabney then reviewed the pres?
ent education In the South, and P?id
tribute to her educational loaders, to
Robert E. Lee. not the commander-ln
chlef, but ilu- college professor; not
Curry, the secession orator nnd Con?
gressman, but i^urry. the champion
of the child, and Mclver, teacher, pure
and simple
"These," he snid, "1 claim are im
mortfils, for they founded Institutions
for the good of mankind throughout
tho ages. Their doctrine that the
Commonwealth should be devoted first
of nil to the training of the child, has
been the lesson of these fifty years
past.
"Much has been accomplished. Ten?
nessee and Virginia have led the way
In ennctlnc model school laws, and
systems of taxation.
"Urent advance lias been made in
providing both State and county sup?
port of the schocds. with the result
that 1011 expenditures for education
are more than three times BS much as
they w'ere ten years ago; the value of
Kchool property is three and n half
times iis much, money expended on
normal schools and other means of
professional education Is more than
three times as much, and the appro
Berry's lor Clothes"

the athletic effect and form re?
taining shape that young men
appreciate.
j Coats of the thinnest fabrics?
I quarter lined, with the new
soft roll.
Trousers with the new cut at
I waist and tapering gracefully
I to the ankle.
The patterns are novel and
exclusi ve.
j Some in combinations of blue
j andgreen woven together with

I And many are priced as low
!as $16.
All the otherthin things to go
with 'em, too.
print ion for State universities and
ther State Institutions of higher
learning are twice as much. High
school facilities have more than
doubled, the average school has in?
creased, and many mote agricultural
J schools have been established."
Referring to the recent appointment
I by President Taft of Dr. Philander P.
I Claxton. head of the Smith's summet
i school, as United States Commissioner
j of Education, Dr. Dnhncy brought his
: address to a dose, saying:
"Thus, after half a century of com.
? plete or partial separation, the South
i has, through public education, rcnu
, tlohaliz'cd herself and prepared her
people to undertake again their share
' of the nntion's work. The giving by
: the South of its great educational
i leader to the nation is the latest
j recognition of its complete renutional
| Izstion."
