Ono hundred and two members and guests of tho American-Asiatic Associa tion sat down to tho second annual din ner of tho organization nt Delmonico's, in New York, last Friday night. Among tho guests of honor was Senator John 1.. Mcl.aurin, of South Carolina. Senator Mci,aurie spoke at length of tho industrial growth of the South and its stimulation by trade willi the Orient. He said : Under favorable conditions there is no limit to the industrial possibilities and progress of tho South. The mills uro bound to como co tho cotton in the near futuro, and yon will I i ml every little town has a ginnery, oil mill and yarn factory run by the same power and com bined under one management. Add to this system cattle feeding and think what it means. There is no hy-prndnel in tho world whose possibilities com paro with colton seed. Thc prolil ol such a plant would he about :'.:'. per cen! por annum. When every neighboibood has such a plant ol' this kind the South will be the richest country on earth. In iron, steel and other industries remarka ble progress bas been made, ll was eon (idontly predicted, and I lear hoped, by tho N'ew langland manufacturers twenty years ago that the South would never become a manufacturing center. The labor problem, the chief predicted ob stacle, bas been satisfactorily solved: cheapness and adaptability have been demonstrate '. Where the New Kngland mills pay $l.'jr> per day our mills pay 7"> cents. There is tm better class of cit i zeus ami no better laborers than the mill operatives of tho South. They arc the children of those who for four years fol lowed lieu and Jackson without reward or tho hope of reward, for they were not slave owners. All ell'orts to usc the negro in th;- factories have been futile, but the ll og roes aro directly benefited, because tho factory draws labor from ihe farm, thus enlarging the colored man's opportunity in a field for which he is peculiarly adapted. The magnificent possibilities of a com moree eagerly awaiting development is a prize worthy to bo solved. Thc s,,ut]| cannot stand still and conservatively op poso commercial expansion. To do so moans to go backward toward Ihe ruin ous conditions of thirty years ago. Tho unexpected and unintentional ac quisition of the Philippines is to mark an epoch in tho history of this country. Thc world's coudie! in Ibo Fast al ibis lime is in reality the outgrowth of eoniiner cial competition. ll is a question ol mai kids and market places. A Biiijlit Picture. Tho IJccord publishes in this issue Hie text of a speech delivered in New York before the American-Asiatic Association by Hon. doini I.. Mcl.aurin, theeloipieiu and progressive junior Senator from South Carolina, lt believes thal speech will strike a responsive chord in South Carolina. What Mr. Mel.aurie says is eloquently said and has a solid founda lion in fact. Thc progress of the Smith in recent years has bien marvelous. That progress is largely duo lo thc growth td this country's Asiatic trade. Tho cutting oil of thal trade would be a heavy blow to the development ol' this section: ?ts protection and increase will give Southern development such an im pettis as will place this section fore most, in manufacturing euler).rise. A Mr. Mcl.aurin shows, tho development of manufacturing in the South honeiits all classes of our citizens it spreads prosperity oroadoasl. Mr. Mcl.aurin is progressive. Ile is not content to travel on in well-worn ruts. There are some in South Carolina who disagree with his views as to t ho dut y and opportunity ol this country in the expansion question, just as there were j.copie who condemned bim for demand i tig I ha I ashing as pro toot ion is the pol icy of this conn I r\ thal thu South should share in i'm- hench?s ol that policy, Ho triumphed in timi light, and as a result the lice plantel ol South Carolina were saved from ruin and Ihe prol i ts of the lumbermen were increased, without hurt to the other cili/eiis ol Ihe State, dust as his policy in that ease proved beneficial lo South Carolina, so Tho Record believes his policy on Ibo prosont issue will pan oui equally well.

Of 1HE Applicants Why and How tho Macadam Road to tho Railroad Station Was Built. Tho report of the Hoard of Trustees of Clemson College lins boen tiled. It given an interesting condensation of tlie work of the College. Follow ing are extracts from thc report: lu submitting this, the tenth annual report of Clemson College, as required by law, it is exceedingly gratifying to tho board of trustees to state that, notwithstanding the low price of cotton and tho consequent stringency in money matters, tho College has experienced during the year a degree of success beyond our most sanguine anticipations. President ll. S. Ilartzog has con tinued to display an aptitude and ability to manage the affairs of tho College, and to his careful manage ment the present prosperous condi tions arc largely due. Owing to the extensive sani t?r) improvements made there has been but very little sick ness during the year. There has been no cases of a serious nature. At the beginning of the scholastic year in September last thc number of applicants for admission largely ex cceded lite capacity ol' the College and it was with much regret that something over ?200 applicants had lo be turned away. Kour hundred and seventy-live students matricu lated, ami these were distributed, as far as possible, among the several counties in proportion to their repre sentation in the General Assembly. At this lime the president has re ceived enough written applications for admission into the College, at the beginning of the term, Septem ber, I SHH), lo lill tho College, not counting the I Ul students now here. Not withstanding this increased de mand upon thc College this board is not prepared lo recommend at this lime any extensive enlargement of the College plant. Such an enlarge ment would be a serious matter, as it would require thc enlargement of every department of the College, which would necessarily entail a large expenditure of money. Mut il is imperative that there should be an enlargement of the plant as to prop erly take care of and provide for those students that are here now. In equipping ami co-ordinating the several departments this board could liol foresee every condition liable to accrue. The large increase of stu dents this year was not distributed equally among the several classes, bul was necessarily confined l<? the freshman and sophomore classes. Mad this increase been distributed 'among all the classes we could possi bly have managed very well willi the equipment; bul when there is an overflow ill say two classes every department into which these two classes go or instruction has lo bo enlarged, otherwise il would be im possible lo give them all proper I instruction. Experience this year lia-> demonstrated the fact that, in order to properly provide for and properly instruct the students now here, meier the conditions above ?lated, lhere will have lo be large additions le,th to the buildings and equipment. We will here call your attention to some ol' these necessary enlarge ments. The chemical laboratory was primarily constructed for class inst ruction only, but for six or seven years a large part of the building has been occupied by thc Stale analyti cal department, the work in which depart incut has more than doubled in the last few years. Chemistry ?s largely taught in the agricultural course and in the course of textile industry and {.< a less ex ten I in the mechanical course. Now the in erea-e in the College, as above speci lied, renders it necessary lo either build a new and sep?rale building for the fertilizer .'ind State analytical department, or enlarge the present building, ?is ihr building al the pres ent i- entirely Inn small. And lu re we will state further thal the expen ses ol' the fertilizer dep.?riincut as published do not represent all the exp? uses, as the department has m rent a,ul oilier such expense to pro Vide and the board requires tin professors of the College lo givi llieir work to Ibo department when tiny are not otherwise employed IJy this arrangement the money aclu ally paid out for ibis work has been reduced nearly one half of what it co-1 win n local eil in ( 'oluinbia. The textile department, recently added lo tin- (.'rdlege course, has mei willi gratifying approval and success. Hui (he skilled instructors employed in (his depart mont, Ingothor with the ilsunl current expenses, have added considerably t<> the lola! expenses ol Ihe College. The building for this department, w hen planned, provided for double the present building, but il was deemed wise I o const niel one half ol'the building al ihe beginning Now Ihe pr?sent building is md large enough tn permit the placini in ?I of I he machinery given lo ii nor is il large enough to accommoda1,? ihe number of students desiring l< lake lin- ennis?', hence this building will lint clo be enlarged. In thu mechanical department thc division? vi #wood work, force und foundory end maohinory were equipped to accommodate sections of eighteen students at a time, UH this nunihor was as large as any instructor could properly teach. The increase of students in thc two lower College classes is far beyond tho capacity of. these divisions and tho cquipmont of each ono must necessarily ho in creased. Our agricultural department noods many appliances and equipments to strengthen tho practical side of thc work. All agricultural courses aro still in a formative state lo some extent, as education along this lino is new, and there are not many pro cedents to follow. We have now reached a point whore wo can seo clearly tho desirability and noces? , sity of making many permanent ?iii ! provemonts. Tlie personnel of the agricultural faculty is strong, but for tho most ollieient work equipment and appli ances are necessary. In the past we have, tried in every way that seemed proper to make this course thc best of the kind in thc United States. Wc feel that it will now compare favorably with that in any other agricultural college, but to hold up this high standard we should provide modern appliances. The wretched condition of tho one mile of road from tho College to Calhoun last winter made the ex pense of balding coal and sup plies very heavy indeed. To remedy this evil, tho board de termined lo build a macadam road, both for convenience and instruc tion. This road is now nearly com pleted. In. building it we were materially assisted by Mr. Secretary of Agriculture Wilson and the experts under him. The macadam road will largely reduce the expense of hauling, hut if we had a railroad branch from th 1 same place, so that the unloading of ears could Ivs avoided, the cost of this hauling could be reduced lo a mere trille. The board would have graded and laid the erosslies upon this road this year, the railroad hr.ving agreed lo lay the iron and move the cars foi ns, but persons owning lands refused the right of way. Wo ask that the Act incorporating the College lu< amended, giving the trustees the right to build railroads, macadam roads, tramways and highways within its incorporate limits and lo con struct a railroad along the highway I rom the College to Calhoun Station, if deemed advisable, with the power to condemn rights of way therefor when necessary. Owing to t'ne fact thal many of our instructors were unmarried men we have been able lo provide house room for them, but this condition has been changed and, therefore, we feel it necessary to construct several more small collages. The treasurer reports a balance on hand of some ten thousand dollars. This balance could have been profitably expended in making' en largements to the equipment ol' the divisions mentioned above, hut in thc management of such an institu tion as Clemson College if is not good business to appropriate all of our income at the beginning of the year. To make the enlargement ol' build ings and equipments before men tioned, to keep p?leo with the rapid development ol science, to preserve the College property, to properly take care of tho students now here, and to maintain the high standard which Clemson now enjoys, it will require, t o meei those improvements, together with the current expenses, and to maintain :i sufllcienl balance on hand to meet emergencies, all the balance now on hand left over from last year, and all of the Ibis year inspection tax, even if the .amount should be ?is large as received last year. In conclusion we desire to call at tention lo one of the results growing out of the particular instruction gi cn at Clemson. Within six weeks after the hist class graduated every member of the class obtained a good posilion at salaries averaging ililli). Hosnies all of the graduates, or nearly all of them, are profitably employed in positions heretofore! in accessible to ihe yoting men of Ibis State. .Many of the graduates of the electrical division are now receiv ing larger salaries than we pay (ho professor ol elect l icit y. All (nat we ask from Ihe Legisla ture is thal thc condition heretofore existing be allowed to remain as it now is. If this is done we will guar antee the continued development ?uni prosperity of Clemson College. IL W. SIMPSON, I 'resident Hoard Trustees. OASTOIIXA. Roan tho /} ":?

Orangos at Clemson. Secretary Wilson of the agricul tural department, it is announced, ha? written to Clemson College, South Carolina, concerning thc ex periments made hy the department in the hybridization of oranges, lt is stated nt thc department that sonic 00 different species have been bud ded, and two of each kind will bo sent to Clemson Collego for testing purposes. It is tho bolief of Secre tary Wilson, thc department oflicials, who have given much attention to theso interesting experiments, that tho experiments to he made will bo of great benefit to South Carolina. Kor some timo the department has been experimenting in the matter of producing a hybrid orange which would withstand tho frost and blights incident to climates further North than florida, and at tho same time possess tho sweetness and llavor of tho fruit grown further south. They have also experimented in tho saino manner with pineapples, citrus, and oven with wheat. They have al ready produced oranges which can bo raised in South Carolina ; but heretofore they have been rather smaller than tho fruit grown in florida. Tho department hopes that tho tests to bc made in tho near future at Clemson Col lego will result in the raising of a hardy fruit. Thc department oflicials who have studied the matter claim that thia can be done and that a fruit can be produced which can be grown as far North as North Carolina. The experiments at Clemson College will be watched hythe department oflicials and by Secretary Wilson, who is much in terested in the subject, very closely, as it will also doubtless bc by the faculty of Clemson College, who hope lo gain additional light upon the subject of hybridization through the tests to bo made there.-Wash ington Cor. (JreenviMe News. Pensions for Confederates. Senator Tillman, says a Washing ton dispatch, has come out squarely in favor of the granting of pensions tu ex-Confederates who served in the .Mexican war. livery Southern Sena tor is in favor of this act of justice being extended, and it is the opinion of many that the time is not far dis tant before this will he done hy the Congress of thc United States. Sena tor Tillman, in the Senate, the other day announced his position in an emphatic manner during thc con sideration of a measure, which was ponding, granting pensions to cx Confederates who served during tho Spanish war. The Senator from South Carolina gave this measure his hearty supo ni, as did all tho other ex-Confederate members in the Senate, only one of whom served in thc Mexican war. Senator Till man said bo could really sec no rea son why pensions should bc granted tn the class which uphold the Cn ion in tho Spanish war, and refused to those who had defended their coun try and their Hag in the war against .Mexico. Other ex-Confederates in thc Senate expressed the same opin ion ; but no movement was made to include tho hitler class. It is stated thal the amount involved in granting pensions to this class of ex-Confode ratcs who served in 'ho war of IS I'.) would lie practically very small. lu connection with this, it may be interesting to know that in the Sen ate of ibo Tinted States lhere is only one Senator who served in the war willi Mexico. This Senator is Senator I'ott us, of Alabama. Tho Alabama Senator was a lieutenant in thc volunteer anny during the ?Mexican war. Senator 1'ettus voted for the measure in the Senate, giv ing ex-Confederates who served in thc Spanish war pensions ; hut if the same act was extended to Mexican war veterans, il is not likely that he would ask the bounty of Uncle Sam.

Thc North Carolina travel is important not only lo up country towns and cities -is a matter of trade, hut lo thousands of people in the factory towns who depend on these wagons for vegetables, apples and other pro duce. It may be that the inter state commerce haw would forbid the pro hibition of narrow wheeled vehicles from coining over the State line. In any case we confess to doubts whether the broad tires would work on the red clay roads of this part of the country. The government wagons provided with them cut our streets here dreadfully last winter and when they gathered m asset' of mud they held it piled inside the rims of the wheels so as lo cause fre quent break-downs. Wo have strong idea that if the bill becomes law there will be a hot demand in the next legislative campaign for its repeal and that the question will be a prominent one when the candi dates come before thc people.
