Mr. Me Kinney's address follows:
I assure you that I am proud of the

selecting me to address you on this
occasion: and while I fear my efforts
tray not prove me worthy of the
honor, yet you may be sure every
word I speak shall be from the heart.
I shall not worty you with words of
commiseration of which you have
doubtless heard enough. I shall en-
deavor to speak to yo8 words of cheer
and comfort. I shall try to inspire

more fortunate fellows. But all the
beauties of nature that the senses of
sight and touch disclose are yours.
Bright flowers, green fields, the wood-
ed landscape, the silvery moonlight,
the glorious sunshine can gladden your
eyes. The gentle caress, the speaking
eye and the quivering lip are a lan-
guage no less ravishing than articu-
late words. .
Turning to the practical side of life,
how many useful occupations are
closed to you on account of the lack of
one sense? They are very few You
can not make a success as lawyers,
nor as doctors. -nor probably as mer-
chants. But farming, stock raising,

was decided to accept the invitation
recently extended by Governor Sayers,
at the request of the business men and
organizations of the state, to visit
Texas if the governor has been Offi-

as yet been given out for publication.
From what can be learned, the bus-
iness men of Chicago Intend to come
to Texas this fall, and they will visit
the principal cities and towns of the
state. They will certainly be given a
warm and cordial greeting by the
Texans, who are always more than
anxious to have visitors coin# to this
grand state and see for themselves its
vast resources. This trip will surely
result in incalculable benefit to both
the people of Texas and Illinois,, as it
will tend to bring the two states into
closer business relations.
It is the intention of the Chicago
business men to also visit Louisiana
during their southern tour, and in

I challenge anyone to produce an ex- j

people who, as a whole, were as faith-

were to the white people of the south

one who desires to Inflame the blacks

blacks believe that white men ar*

The fact that vou are here my friends

public schools, the State Normal

the friend of neither race and is the

country as well as the country of the
white people who live in it. It dls«
tributes Its bounty alike upon the col-
