CLOVER SCHOOL CLOSES. Final Exercises Held Last Thursday 1 Night. rorm.|iiii)dfniH> Tlir Yorkvllle Knuulrer Clover, May 23.?The Clover High school closed on Thursday after one of the most successful and satisfactory sessions in its history. Prof. James H. Spann. of Sumter, has had charge of the school since the beginning of the term last September, and was assisted by the following corps of teachers: Miss Annie Miller, of Hock Hill; Miss Sara Blakeney. of Clinton: Miss Kuniee OSrist. of Yorkviile, and Misses Jennie C'urrence and Mell Niel. of Clover. On Thursday evening the closing exercises were held in the opera house. The programme was short and simple, being confined almost ntirely to the high school department. 1 uring this year the department has been receiving aid front the state board, and has done splendid work -v-~ Af Prof sjunnn llllUl'r Hie IIPII UV UVIl V.. . . , nn<l Miss Xiel. Recently these teachers had their young men pupils toprepare declamations, and the young ladies essays, with the view of having judges determine the best three of each to he delivered or read at the Nosing exercises. Out of thirteen I who prepared declamations, the judges decided that those of William Matthews, Marshall Harnett and Ernest Allen were best, hut were unable to decide on the best three essays, and to solve the problem requested that four be allowed to read their productions. The successful young ladies and their subjects were: Miss Mary Stevenson, "Voices of Spring:" Miss Pearl Knox. "Home:" Miss Lila Jackson. "The Private Soldier;" Miss Annie Clinton, "looking Through a Veil." All?both the declaimers and X essayists?acquiQted themselves with great credit, and Mr. Spann has just cause to feel proud of their work. Two choruses were sung by the entire school under Miss Xiel's direction, and these were very much enjoyed. The last number on the programme was a song. "School Days are Over." by Misses Lila Jackson and Macie Xiel. and Messrs. Will Matthews, Marshall Harnett. Ernest and Hamby Allen. It is the purpose of the trustees to no effort necessary to have the new school building for which the voters recently authorized a $10,000 bond issue, in time for the opening of the full term. They have recently purchased a tract of land embracing four acres in a most desirable portion of the town, on which to erect the building, and provide ample recreation grounds for all time to come. The plans for the building are being I prepared by Architect Walker, of Rock Hill, and are expected to be ready next week, and the contract will be awarded with as little delay as possible. It is expected that the grounds on which the old school building stands will be sold for almost, if not quite enough, to pay for the new grounds. The bonds have not been sold, but in order to avoid any delay in the erection of the building on this account, the Hank of Clover has advised the trustees that they could proceed to make all their arrangements and contracts just the same as if the bonds had been disposed of. as the bank would guarantee par for them. All of the old teachers have been reelected for the coming term, but it is said that several may not accept, ( therefore it is quite likely that there will be one or more new ones to select. Live and Let Live.?Mr. Lewis W. Parker advises me cmion nun make common cause with the farmers to maintain the price of cotton at its legitimate level. This is good advice and if the mills had adopted this policy years ago. instead of aiding and abetting the cotton exchange gamblers of New York and Liverpool, the south? cotton farmers, cotton mills and all other lines of business?would today be k better off. The coalition of cotton mills and cotton speculators to manipulate the price of cotton has been ruinous to those who depended upon actual cotton for a living, and was unnatural as damaging. The man who grows cotton and they who spin and weave it into ( cloth arc engaged in an honest and legitimate business and are dependent upon a marketable commodity for a livelihood, but the cotton exchange speculators are gamblers pure and simple and every dollar that they get is an unrighteous tribute levied upon the toil of honest producers. If the mills and the farmers, or some business-like organization of farmers, can get to gether then speculators can be cut out entirely, the mills can contract at a fixed price f?>r all the cotton they need from year to year and only the surplus cotton, if any, will be thrown upon the market. The size of the surplus will determine the price the mills will be 'willing to pay for the next year's crop, and it will behoove the farmers to keep the surplus within bounds. These would be ideal conditions and doubtless impossible of entire realization. but they can be approximated if farmers and mill men will but work together with an honest purpose to do what is mutually beneficial on a live and let live policy.?Sumter Item. ? Columbia special of May 20, to tile News and Courier: That tiullugher & Hurton. a Pennsylvania* whisky firm ^ which did an extensive business with the old state dispensary, overcharged the state for goods sold, is shown by the fact that over $11,000 in the nature of restitution money was today agreed to be turned over to the dispensary commission by representatives of the company. it is thought that the act t passed at tin- last session of the general assembly, which gave the commission further power in winding up the affairs of the dispensary, caused the settlement by the Gallagher & Burton company. The company was* represented by Mr. T. Moultrie Mordecai of Charleston, and the settlement was effected through him. At the sitting of the commission last year an overjudgnient of $22,289.60 was found against the Gallagher & Mutton company. The company had a claim of $4.H4r?.OG against the state. This claim was wiped out by the commission and a balance was found to be due the state of $1S.041.26. The Gallagher & Mutton company had a claim against the different county dispensary hoards of the state amounting to $i:i.62:i.r>4. This amount was held up by an injunction and the suit of the dispensary commission, as well as under act of the legislature providing for the winding up the dispensary affairs, out of the claim of the Gallagher & Burton company against the county dispensaries, to the amount of over $13,000. and tile claim of over $4,000 against the commission, l be eomitunv lias agreed to acee|d $2. f 227.27. which means that the state has been saved over $1.7.000. The act under which the claim was settled is now being attacked in the supreme court by the Carolina Class company. AT THE CHURCHES. ' RAPT 1ST.
