IT MEETS WITH GREAT FAVOB, And Passes Its Second Reading With oat Very Much Opposition and With But a Few Slight Amendments. Col. D. O. Herbert's House bill to create beneficiary scholarships in Clemson College was taken up in the Senate on Wednesday morning. The bill produced a debate to some length and earnestness. Senator Raysor had an amendment passed substituting for the 15 years of age limit a clause leaving it to the usual discretion of the authorities. He also submitted an amendment making the examina tion average 60 instead of 50 per cent. This was passed. The question of debate was hinging on the clause "and preference shall be given those young men who desire to take the ag ricultural and mechanical course." Senator Raysor wished to strike out the words "and mechanical," main taing his position by the statement that Clemson was essentially an insti tution for the farmers, founded in their behalf, and supported by the in come tax. It was instigated at a farmer's convention in Columbia in 1886, Its name is Clemson Agricultu ral college. Senator Raysor said that when the privilege tax was given Clemson the promise was made, that it would be an agricultural college, but now while the work of general education is car ried on well, not enough attention is paid to the branch for which the school was founded. Not 10 per cent, of the students took this course last year. The trustees admitted that there would be no use for the bill if it was not limited to agricultural stu dents. The engineering, textile and electrical departments are crowded now, Clemson's income is between $160,000 and $140,000 and of this surr $102,000 was..paid by the privi lege tax?paid by toe farmers. Thus this class of students should be given preference in the scholarships. South Carolina needs skilled agriculturalists. Senator J. W. Ragsdale was an op ponent of this, amendment. He wished to strike out the entire clause quoted above, as it means a restric tion. It is a bribe for boys to take the agricultral course. The course is now a tine one and well equipped, yet it is not popular. If a boy wants to go into a broader field than the farm he should not be refused. As to the privilege tax support, in states where there is no tax fertilizer costs just as much. He wanted to see no restrictions on the scholarships, of which he was heartily in favoi. Senator McLeod was in the same position on the bill as Senator Raysor. He saw nothing bad in it and he did see in the amendment the expression of the growing sentiment in South Carolina for expert agricul turists. "Undeveloped agriculture needs brains mixed with work," said Sentor McLeod. Technical knowledge Is necessary to succceess if the Indi vidual wishes to rise above other far mers in this work. Though only about 50 per cent, of Clemson's stu dents are farmer's sons, yet the farmer supports the school and should reap its Ifirst benefits. Senator Hardin, like Senator Ragsdale, wished to strike out the clause as he thought it a restriction. Senator May field said that in the past Clemson, though founded for the study of agriculture, had riot fulfilled this end as in the other departments, but that now the trustees recognized this and it was to this end that the bill was introduced. He did not know of a State th*t had no fertilizer tax. If there was no tax fertilizers would be lower but ir there were no inspection the farmers would be Hooded with an inferior staple. He wanted Senator Raysnr's nmendmr?nt tO prevail, Sen ator Ragsdale had not long begun in reply, when the debate was interrupt ed by papers from the house. Later it was postponed until the evening session. At the evening session Senator Ray sor's motion to strike out "and me chanical" in the Clemson beneficiary scholarship bill, was renewed after a motion to postpone consideration and a motion to table the amendment had both been defeated. The amendment was adopted. Senator Johnson wished to amend the hill so as to include tex tile students, but this was tabled. Senator Hardin moved to strike out the entire clause, his motion being supported by Senators J. W. Rags dale, Peurifoy and Johnson, but his motion was tabled by a vote of 20 to 6i The bill was sent to a third read ing. Cures Rheumatism and Catarrb. Medicines Sent Free.
