.it seems that the movement started
in 'oinibiaL to put out opposition to

politicians don't come out when ther(
is no Chance to winl. Gov. Cooper is
making good in Columbia an([ the
-politicians know it.
The Woodruff News, under new
mttanatigemtient, is wagiig a strong cant
paignl for a live chamber of commerce1
in that enterpr'ising town. There is
always much that a live chamber of
comiee catn do for the advance
iteit of a town, ('specially where it
has sutch a fi,- contributar) territory
as Woodriff, and a live commtotercial
body there otght to be of iuhelt bene

TlE CIAE.\SON "STRIlm".
The lecision of the ('lemnson truls
tees following the "1strike"' of tle
student body was practically as was
to be expected. The students had
grievances and just reason to com
.plain, as catn be clearly seent, both
from the despatches and from the re
ports of the boys themselves. Tite
boys Illade a mistake, however, in leav
ing (lte college and making demands
which clearly could not he consid
ered. After all, the facility must be
the rtiling authority in the college or
its work cannot be continued.
It cannot be hidden that smte
things at the college, incluttdintmg thIte
discipline and the table fare needed
attention. The strike of the students,
though Ill-advised, will help to rtetedy
these things. This tmuch has heett
gained. 'iis ought to be considertue
by the students while considering
their technical defeat and sober ae
tion takent accordingly.
It would ble unttfortitnate for the slt
