WOULD KEEF CLEMSON
OUT OF NEWSPAPERS
Mr. W. W. Dixon of Winnsboro
Thinks Press Controversy About
Discipline Bad for Institution.
To the Editor of the State.
Is there no earthly way that we
can be relieved of the agony of the
discussion of Clemson's affairs at this
juncture in the public print. I think
all of it injurious and out of order.
Capt. Minus knows enough about mil
itary science and ethics to have con
tented himself with a dignified resig
nation and silence, submitting his
grievances for redress to .h.is superiors
And loving the State, as he does, he.
should have made a personal sacrifice
of his feelings for the good of the
college just at this time. There is
enough fairness in the board to do
justice finally between him and the
head of the institution. The presi
dent of Clemson was precipitate in
his defense and any statement which
he may have had to make in reply to
Capt. Minus should have been made
to the trustees. More than all, if
there 'has been no investigation of the
points in the controversy now being
waged in the columns of the press it
is very injudicious and hurtful for
the trustees to jump into the newspa
pers, prejudicing and trying the case
for the public before a thorough and
painstaking investigation which they
say they have not (had.
I commend the attitude of Col. Alan
Johnstone. the president of the
board. He has been interviewed and
has nothing for publication. Such
silence at such times is truly golden.

FIVE YEARS SENTENCE
FOR ,GEORGE BARTON
Notorious Safeblower Pleads Guilty
to Charge of Robbing Postoffice
at Pelzer.
The State.
Greenville, April 27.-A cross-eyed
woman, apparently about 25 years of
age, appeared today for the first time
iA the Barton case. Incidentally Bar
ton pleaded guilty to the charge of
-breaking into and robbing the postof
fiee at Pelzer, and accepted a term
of five vears in the Atlanta prison
and a fine of $1,000. It is intimated
the woman gave him the "double
cross."
The notorious safe blower, who es
caped from the jail here in company
with "Tennessee Dutch,'' an equally
well known criminal and was cap
tured near Asheville, N. C., and
brought here for trial, did not speak
to the woman in .tihe case when he
came into court. His plea of gailty
Aade it unnecessary to use her as a
witneis for or against him.
COOPERS' MOTION REFUSED.
Judge Denies Ne\v Trial to Murderers
of Carmack.-Appeal to Supreme
Court.
Nashville, Tenn., April 27.-Judge
William H. Hart today overruled the
motion for a new trial in the case of
Col. Duncan B. Cooper andi Robin J.
Cooper, his son, both convicted of the
murder'of Former United States Sen
ator Carrmaek. The court 's opinion
was that there was no ground for set
ting aside the verdict of the trial
jury. The defense at onee gave notice
of an appeal to the Tennessee su
preme court. The appeal was grant
ed.
The bond remains the same and the
same bondsmen qualified. The de
fense demands 30 days in which to
file a bill of exceptions. Decisions on
Ithis point were deferred till Satur
day.
HAINS JURY COMPLETE.
Twelve Men to Try Army Captain Se
lected After Examination of
40 Talesmen.
Flushing, N. Y., April 27.-The
jury that is to try Capt. Peter C.
Hams for the murder of William E.
Annis, his one time friend, was final
ly completed today. 'It took just sev
en days to select the 12 men and in
that time 430 talesmen were called
and examined. The State will pre
sent its case, beginning tomorrow,
Sand from that time on t,he case will
move expeditiously.
All of the jurymen. are married
with the excep)tion of Otto J. Nicholas
who is 27 vears old and the youngest
man in the jury box. Speaking of
the personnel of the jury, one of the
defendant 's counsel said it was a
"pathwork of varying personalities
and temperaments.'
The defense has fought all along
for married meni and peremptorily
challenged t'he few baehelors who
have qualified.
Capt. Hains has taken no part in
seleting the 12 men who will decide
his fate. but has remained silent
.lioanot the proceeding. His law
ver-oltend l that lie is insane now as
lie was, in their opinion, for months
before he killed Annis.
There will be a tinge of military
color at the trial in the presence of
several arniv officers. witnesses for
the defense, who were attached to the
post where Capt. Annis was stationed
during his army career. They will
testify as to insane acts of the defen
dant.
According to John F. McIntyre,
chief counsel for the defense, evidence
will be introduced to show hereditary
taint of insanity in t'he defendant's
family.
Justice Garretson 'has ordered the
jury locked up daring the trial.
COL. E. H. AULL IN CHARLESTON
Optimistic as to the Success of the
Coming Press Association Con
vention.
News and Courier, 28th.
Col. Elbert H. Aull, of Newberry,
never appeared happier or more pros

Carolina Pythian in connection with
the convention of the Knghts of Py
thias to be held here late in May,
and which promises -to be one of the
largest and most interesting meetings
of that order ever held in this State.
Col. Aull among many other things
is the president of the South Carolina
Press association <and he is very opti
mistic as to tio success of the annual
convention of the association, which
will be held in Greenville during the
first week in July. An attractive pro
gramme is being arranged, he says,
and all preparations are being made
to give those who attend the conven
tion the best sort of a good time.
