THE COLLEGE KOW.
The conflict at the South Carolina
College is a deplorable affair, and the
people of the. State will sincerely regret
that it happened. The facts, as
published, briefly stated are these:
Col. Wilie Jones obtained written permission
to ust the college athletic
field to held t e inspection of the

Guards, 1:0 two military companies
of the ci y of Columbia. Col.
Jones in asking for permission stated
that he wanted ine grounds for the
afternoon oi the 2Gth of May. President
"Woodrow consented, but stated
that the military must not march over

ueeii prepared by the students for
piajing bfsebali. The inspection was
postponed. In the meantime Dr.
"WoodrowLad left the city, and Prof.
Sloan was acting as President. The
students applied to Prof. Sloan, the
acting President, for the use of the
grounds to play a match game - of bill
on Friday afternoon, 2Sth of May.
Prof. Sic an granted permission as a
matter of course, and it may be added
that be did not know that tbe military
company expected to use them. Having
learned through tbe newspapers
thai the military expected to use them,
he went out on the grounds on Friday,
saw Adjutant and Inspector General
Watts, bad a conversation with him.
informing him that he bad given the
students permission to play a match
game 01 oaii. uenerai ?vsus iuum^ied
that the grounds belonged to
the Staie, to which Prof. Sloan replied:
"Yes, to the State for the college.'*
General Watts then mentioned
ihe fact of permission having been
granted by President Woodrow. Prof.
Sio&n said that he had not been informed
of this permission, but added
the grounds were large enough for
both, and requested General Watts to
hold his inspection on the east side.
Chzp.ni crates teai "this
interview was perfectly amicable.
Prof. Sloan thought the matter was
all arranged; so did the students.

p;>siiion near iLc third base." A ball
struck Major Evans' horse. The
students apoligized, saying it was au
accident, but Watts got mad, and
ordered the grounds cleared. The result
was that a policeman was badly
beaten, one of the students perhaps
fatally injured, and Prof. Davis painfully,
though not seriously, hurt in attempting
to make peace.
Who was to blame? Who had -the
right to the grounds? General Watts
stated that i ley belonged to the State.
So they do. 'out as Professor Sloan
very propeily said, "to the State for
the College. This is declared by an
act of the Legislature. The college
authoritias are tae custodians of the
buildiags and grounds; -no one, not
even the Adjutant and Inspector
General, with i>r> uniform and brass
buttons and t-v.ord, had anj right
there, without ihe consent of tbe
proper authorities. Still less right
had he to order tbe grounds cleared.
He went outside of the scopc. of his
.inr.horitr. aud the students when at
tacked had a legal right to meet blow
Willi blow. From the statement of
facts published, it was a plain act of
self defense on their part. If it be
granted that simply because General
Watts holds a high military office he
can violate the personal rights of pri
vale citizens, wLh Impunity, tii?n it I
wouid be well to abolish the militia {

WANAMAKERVS W;E.
Ex-Post master Gener-i U'utiamaker
* - - ,1
has made some of the Uepub:ican icuu-i
ers mad by toiling' the truth. Had a
Populist or Democrat used the language
employed by Wanamaker it
?.?i/i hn-pp been noticedj but
\\ UU1U uv/i . w
passed over merely is o:;e of the acts
of a violent partisan. The Republican
party went into power upon the
express and unmodified promise shit
it would bring prosperity. Here is
the language of Mr. Wanamnker so
full of woe, hopelessness a:;d despair:
"The country is not prosperous. Since
the ou'set of the last pre^iinitial cim
paign the parry press ami polilival
leaders generally fixed the Xovtmber
election of 1896 as the da:e or' the betim?
a In!] half of
vi JJVVU biutvwt
the year has expired since the u 5 1 ol
the Republican party was declared.
Thus far but one cf the important
issues of the campaign is nearing settlement,
and hardly any noticeable
improvement of the wretched times is
mauifest/'
"I confess,'7 continues Mr. Wunamaker,
"that live years of listening to
a steady stream passing uuuu^n uuo
office with their tales of woe, stifll-rlij?r
and starvation haw; worn upon me,
and I confess, nlso, that I am a!ai mod
by the increase in the mini has uf that
procession."
These are senons words, and it is
easily seen on rtadii'jr th?m that they
are uttered af:er thought and deliberation.
Coming'as thev do from a man
like VVanamaker th'jy deserve s.-iious
thought and reflation The strange
part of it to us is that Mr. WanamoL-Pv
dnpi not realize that th"> policies
of the Republican party in tlie past
are largely responsible for "the increase
in ihe numbeis of thai procession,"
'Meliing their tales of woe, suffering
and starvation," until tiie constant
repetition of the tides of misery
has worn Mr. Wanamaker. The billion
dollar Congress, the tver increasing
expenditure of the people's money
to deplete the treasury so that a false
alarm may be raised that the Government
needs more revenue, and upon
this falsehood tax these same people
going through Mr. Wanamaker's cfSce
for the purpose of cnriching the rich,
have all tended to increase the number.
It was openly charged, and some
sirong evidence was produced to prove
it, that John Wanamaker himself, this
same man who now sees so much
calamity in the country, contribu:ea a
large sum of n ouey to elcct President
Harris on. Mr. Harrison was elected,
and John Wanamaker was made Postmaster
General. The Harrison ad"
? 3
ministration undertook ttie very nara
task of disposing of the surplus.
This ci'fficult undertaking was accomplished,
and immediately the Barrison
administration began to tax the people
to put more money in the treasury.
It has since been discovered that tlji.same
admiuistratian a few monhbefore
it turned the Government over
to Mr. Cleveland's administration
found the gold reserve was dwindling
and ordered plates for ihe issuing of
bonds. If a surplus was a dangeroivthing
why should the people have
been taxed to pnt more money in the
treasury? If the Harrsou administration
found it nececsary to prepare
lor issuing bonds to maintain the gold
reserve when the country then had
exceedingly high, tariff duties, how do
they expect a high tariff now to do
what it would not h^n accomplish?
"Thus far but one of the important
issues cf the campaign is nearing settlement,"
says Mr. Wanamaser. This j
issue is of course the tariff. And if
Mr. Wanainaker expects taxation to
make a people prosperous, lie will find
himself in worse despair than now.
"The beginning of good times" will
move farther and further from us.

one of the strongest, intellectually,
among the Reformers. lie was
among the first to revolt against bossism,
and has had the brains to fight
this evil. He has identified himself

told that some fell three mile6

to have been as large as a goose egg.
Mr. J. B. Morrison, of Blackstock,
paid this community a living- visit not
long since.
Mr. II. D. Coleman ia cutting oats.
He has the best oats we have seen.
Some of our farmers are beginning

In my last communication 1 siaicu
that Mr. David Coleman, deceased, was
a member of a family of eight brothers.
I was mistaken; there were nine
brothers; five of them arc buried in
the Feasterville burial ground.
The people of this section regret to
hear of the recent death of Senator
F.nHfi. Since last September ex
Speaker Crisp, Daniel W. Yoorhees
and Joseph H. Earle have succombed
to the invincible adversary who disarms
alike the illustrious statesman
and the obscure citizen. The Democratic
party can ill aSord to lose the
services of such eminent men. Mr.
Voorhees took the oath of office as a
Congressman on the 2ad of July,

his brilliancy and eloqaence. The
writer had the pleasure of hearing
him deliver an address in 1S8S at
Spartanburg, S. (J. Rarely, if ever,
have I been more favorably impressed
with a public speaker than I was on
that occasion. With a voic? exceedingly
rich in it? varied ttrains of
music, ranging from the deep notes
of the organ to the stirring call of the
bugle, with a familiar 4and inflating
grasp of the subject at issue, he entered
? ? trained gladiator in the field
of oratory. Few men in America
have filled a larger space in the public
eye than Daniel W. Voorhees, of
Indiana.
Charles F. Crisp was the child of
poverty, ttIio by bis own peroonal
assiduity rose from poverty and obscurity
to the second highest position
in the gift of the American people.
On the first Monday in December,
1S63, lie took the oath of office as a
member ot Congress from tbe state
of Georgia, and soon became to be the
greatest parliamentary leaders in the

Monday in December, 1891, he. was
elected Speaker of the House While
in Washington, in 1894, I visited the
capiiol several times to witness the
proceedings of the House and Senate.!
There I saw Judge Crisp presiding
over the deliberations of Congress,
the greatest deliberative body cf representative
men in the world.
Just as Mr. Voorhees laid down the
senatorial toga Josepn 11. Jtarie aonuea
it and assumed the responeibe functions
of a national law-maker which
Mr. Voorhees had simultaneously re-,
linguished. That demonstrates very
clearly that mankind in a tempora'l
sense is like a piece of machinery, a
vehicle for instance, after having been
used for several years it becomes
worn our, is laid aside and a new one
bought to take its place. So it is with
man, just as he lays down the official
harness or drops by the wayside,
another is lormed who is prepared to
.ake his place as a new born babe is
ushered into the world to walk in his
footsteps, view the same sights and
run the same race that his predecessor
has run. So it has been for time immemorial,
and will concinue to be for
ages illimitable and a people innumerable.
Senator Earlc did not have an
opportunity to display the great talents
that he no doubt possessed. Had life
been spared him he would have perhaps
demonstrated those rare gifts of

had been boantifully supplied, and
would have been instrumental in
helping to uphold that high standard
of American statesmanship for which
oar people are so much noted.
The iamiliar phrase of Senator
Earle, "I am a Democrat," met the
approval of our people regardless of
factions. His disposition to sabmit
to the will of a majority of oar people,
and his support of the regular Demo
era tic nominees, the approval
and admiration of the people throughout
the State. As a reward for nis J
ability and consistency he was elected j
a circuit jad^e, and elevated t j the j
united States Senate' which is indeed
a very ins<h honor. If called npen to
name the characteristics of these men
that were most instrumental in elevating
them to these exilted p >siiijns,
[ would say, sincerely, the c >ur>?gc of
their convictions coupled with a superior
intellect.

Mr. Editor: There are all kinds of
amusements and attractions to be had
and found in this noted as well as
thriviog little city. We enjoyed a
very pleasant visit there on last Saturda>
and Sunday, it beii'g "Children's
Day.7-' .Before dinner we were thinking
how long it wouid be before the l
dp.ir r>r>on1p. wnnlc] <rp? the victuals in I
order, asd after dinner we talked
about how we enjoyed those victuals,
and we had some little private chats
about in spots; also the young men
and young ladies you know. We put
up at the Central Hottl, IXo. 131G,
corner of Congress and Washington
streets, where we got exceedingly good
accommodations; and would ad
vice all wholesale drummers who ha re
a strictly thorough kuowledge of their
business to call at Ho. 131G, on said
corner, to take an active part in the
debating society which generally meets
in the afternoon about S. o'clock and
continues until about 11 o'clock. I
don't mean one who sells commercial
commodities, but one who di-ais gently
auu wiseiy 111 expressions 01 ?>t-i mm
and one who is more specilio n> i.iher
line of business than a eotuumvLl
drummer. "We all know that tn. ic we

Will not LaKe time to uit'll ion j 1>1 i>uW.

feat Uie to eo in men co with. Tii? c\c'w
come uext. You can sit on the verauda
and see the lighted lanterns which havu
great rtfieciing powers, and hear the
musical ringiDg of the bells something
less than v. mile up or down Main
street; then next you hear tbe social
gabbing as they pass wheeling: their
way on to fome of the important side
streets, I suppose for the purpose of
letting their lantern lights shine more.
Main'strcet being so well lighted that
tbe cycle lamp does not have any showing
whatever?it is but as a pearl to a
diamond.
There are one or more gas tanks in
or near the city I believe. The street
cars were not running; don't allow
any running ot' cars on Sunday. There
is some talk of putting in set of modern
water works, connected with an
artesian well, the purposs ot' whicN is
to get more and better water. Alain
street should be p?ived with S by 10
blocks (granite or course); it would
or! r\ rv?n/?ii tn thr> unnptifii in-i* vvrt* i i
as it would be beueiicial 10 Uio drav- i
men, as tnc drayage is very heavy,
owing to the wholesale business dune
by Roberts Sc Co., Calvin liabb and
others of a long mercantile standing.
Judging from a very recent conversation
which occurrcd between two
gentlemen who were being entertained
by some of Honticello's fairest, if
would be somewhat instructive as well
as amusing to construct or erect .-m

Well, from what I have said I know
you have concluded that this is certainly
:i booming city, and so it is.
The si reel-, ' especially Main street,
was getting very rowdy before I left,
owing to the slight illness ot the chiet
of police, the lion. Gus Mack, who
was not able to see after the rowdies,
but W. F. Mack was holding them
down all the same. Visitor.

LONG TOWN NFWS.
Plenty of lnrd work and, I reckon,
a sprinkling of negligence also, cause
me to forget you from this section.
But here we are again, waking up.
Since the entertainment at tbe Upper
Lcngioren school house news became
sf.iwfi lion's teeth." so to speak,
ami bope yon .will have com passion j
and not stick this poor attempt in your
waste basket.
A heavy rain, accompanied by some
haii, fell i;i ibis section (especially on
the river) on last Sunday evening,
which was very acceptablc indeed and
helped crops, gardens, etc., wonderfully.
"We surely have been blessed.
The grain crops arc line in places,

good, gardens Hue, potatoes (sweet
and Irish) coming on nicely. The
blackbcrry crop aud olhei fruits bid
fair to be abundant.
Oar neighbor, Mr, Len Scotf. lias
his usual heavy crops of pe.irs. and
takes the lead in Irish potatoes.
The bud worm seems t} be placing
havoc with the corn crop, both od
hill un.l bottoms. A good deal of
cotton has been chopped and to be
chopped. Small gray grasshoppers
have been troubling the gardens lately,
but have about stopped.
Longtown is saddened by the loss,
recently, of one of its true, good,
Christian ladies, Mrs. M. E. .McCormick.
She is jrreatlv missed here
among us, and with such as sh? was, J
it is hard l'or us to give her up, but,
we must remember that >ue has
"crossed over the river" and waiting
for us to follow. She was jaid to
rest at the Presbyterian Church, of
which she was a member, on .Monday
afternoon.'
Miss Eunice Ko$borou?h will ciose

liiin is still dreadfully needed and it
is utterly discouraging to go into the
gardens. Osvlng to the dry weather
there are many impperfect slaads of
cotton.
It is a real sriief thae Mr. Do;y has
again suffered from an incendiary, and
it is to be hoped the guilty party will
net escape 'detection and punishment.
The whole community is saddened
by Senator Earle's untimely death.
Just as be had reached the zenith of
his ambition and power to be so suddenly
cut dowo. ' His dcalh is a heavy
blow to the whole State. How many
sad disappointed lives are left, aud
how gladly would some have answered
the summons for him. "Yet shall not
the King of all the earth do right?"

We have recently come into possession
of some rocks which might not
be scanned by naturalists, and should
occupy a place in a museum. They
arc ajmost as pellucid as glass and
have the appearance of having been
smoked in ibe centre. Our colored
friends call the specimens ."thunder
clouds" and gravely inform us they
are caused by a storm. How wonderful
aud captivating is the study of
gcoiogv.
Dr. Arnett's loss is simply distressing,
yet 'vyc should be grateful that the
famiiy escaped personal harm.
