TAFT SPOKE IN ATLANTA, Made Leading Address at Southern Commercial Congress. TOLD OF WORK OF CONGRESS Failure to Pass Reciprocity Bill the Hat" for $27,000 for Publicity Fund. Atlanta, Mar. Taft came to Atlanta, received an ovation from the thousands of Georgians gathered to do him honor and "passed the hat" at the meeting of the Southern Commercial congress. While taking up the collection the executive raised $27,000 for the cause of Southern exploitation.

Mr. Taft made the leading address at the meeting of the congress. He told the assembled industrialists about the results and failures of the Sixty-first congress. This he detailed after paying a tribute to the spirit which had reared the New South from the wreck of old. The failure to pass the Canadian reciprocity bill in the senate said the executive was the cause of the greatest disappointment of his administration.

He said that the refusal of the senate to vote justified the call for an extra session, inasmuch as it was plain to all men that the country as a whole was in favor of this measure. Speaking from the same platform with the president was Woodrow Wilson, governor of New Jersey who is being boomed in Atlanta for the Democratic for the presidency, Secretary of War Jacob M. Dickinson, John Hays Hammond and George Westinghouse. President Taft arrived in Atlanta shortly after 11 o'ciock. The engine on his train broke down 40 miles east of here and he arrived late.

A great crowd of people greeted Mr. Taft at the station and lined the streets between the depot and the auditorium. It had been planned that the president should not do more than review the delegates to the congress. However, when the appeals were being made for more money with which to carry on the work of presenting the South's resources to the world, Mr. Taft jumped from his seat, took the gavel from the hands of former Gov.

David R. Francis of Missouri and called upon the delegates to hand out the money. This interesting proceeding took the convention off its feet. Pledges were made amid scenes of great enthusiasm and the money demanded was promised in five minutes. The whole day has been filled to overflowing with hospitality.

Luncheons, dinners and receptions marked the program and put the president in humor to more thoroughly enjoy the day's rest which he is to give himself at Augusta.

GOOD HORSES ARE SCARCE. They Attract More Attention Than Do Automobiles. A leading horseman of Abilene day said: "Why, don't you know that autos have become so numerous in Abilene that when one passes by you scarcely glance at it, but good driving horses are so scarce on Abilene streets now that when a fairly good looking one is driven down the street you will generally pause to take a second look at it. Not so long ago it was all horse, and now autos have become so common that decent horse attracts the most attention unless the auto is about to run you down." The man who made the remark added that he would rather invest $10,000 in a good 1 orse than to i invest $2,000 in an automobile. But at the same time people continue to sell their horses and bu; automobiles.Abilene Reflector.
