THE ELOQUENT SOUTHERNER.
John T. Graves Speaks on "The
Reign of the Demagogue."-The
Lecture Enjoyed by All.
Seldom has such a patriotic and
lofty appeal for good government
been made to our student body as
was delivered last Saturday evening
by the eloquent Georgia editor,
John Temple Graves. To appre-
ciate true oratory is to listen to this
"Apostle of the New Souti." A
wealth of vocabulary, a clear ring-
ing voice, and a musical rhythm,
almost poetic, are qualities that well
equip Mr. Graves for the lecture
platform.
He prefaced his theme with the
important question, "What shall a
young man do with his life?" The
youth of a republic are its bulwarks.
The Ameriean youth, today is stand-
ing on the brink of the Rubicon,
while the glories of Rome lie before
him. What will he do with his in-
heritance?
We are living in a fast age. Young
boys strut around in swallow tails
before their fathers wore socks.
With our fertile soil, our genial cli-
mate, our widely extending shores,
our free institutions, where is a
nobler field for the youth than in
serving a virtuous government? The
insect that gnaws at the heart of free
government, is aptly called the dem-
agogue. Where selfish ambition
lurks he may be found. He lives a
thousand lives, in law, in juries, in
business, in religion, and in journal-
ism. Wherever the people have a
voice in government, there are two
men, the patriot waving aloft the flag
of freedom and truth, and the dem-
agogue lifting the pirate flag of
selfishness.
The germ of this product is the
ward politician. His greatest trait
is familiarity. He knows everyone,
is everywhere. Wherever found
selfishness is his aim.
The speaker's ringing declaration
that he would rather swing the
lance of free thought and plant the
seeds of truth, than to occupy the
highest office to the detriment of
his countrymen, showed that sin.,
cere spirit of lofty patriotism, which
is not found in mere idle words.
Taking up the race problem,
--he expressed his belief that
this perplexing question could
be settled along the lines
