Another star in the firmament of journalism has set to rise in inextinguishable glory "beyond the sunt set's radiant glow," and in common ? with the brethren of the press who *'/ knew and admired the man, we bow ur head in sorrow for the death of Hp > Carlyle McKinley, whose spirit passed the portals of mortality into life everlasting only a few days ago. [ For nearly a quarter of a century Mr McKinley had been on the staff j : of the Charleston News and Courier, ix and for a number of years he was one of the chief editorial writers for j that newspaper. The best work of J ?V his splendid intellect adorned the: ^ editorial page, where his facile pen i was ever wielded in behalf, of right I ^ and truth and justice; albeit his' V' personality was so merged into that of his co-workers in their composite 'labors that most of his readers ' knew not even the name of the man I L* whose whose writings so moved I f;. ' them to admiration. It was onr privilege to know Mc-. Kin ley as a man. For many months . he had faced death, as a knight of old, witnont craven fear, but with an unfaltering faith that sustained . * him even in the presence of the king of terrors. j?, . His work is done; his pen is^itenf forever; yet if the good that men * do sorviv a them, we must believe $ that hie influence still lives to in* tpire men to higher ideals and nobler achievement. On every side the political prog- j ready with his, "I told Wfyn so." t M??? It is to be hoped that the expected letter from a Parker pen will iu?lude'the "'lucky curve". x When tile smoke of battle is cleared away and the primaries have passed into history, let us all get registered and make the vote of old h?'"' ' Williaimsburg in the general election a record-breaking one. Out in Wyoming the other day a aegroNwas lynched by a mob of! three hundred whites. Cow-boy! & J I Rooseveltonce attempted to jusufy the lyndting of horse-thieves out 1 - West?will Candidate Roosevelt' t ! view this outrage, with the same ; 1 i o vir i ? i *1*1 complacency r we uouoc lir | r ===== |. We are glad to learn that the town i council haa invested in a fire engine. I . ' I If it be of practical value (and we j have no reason to believe otherwise), when the town is re-rated there should be an appreciable reduction in fire j insurance rates, and in a short while the fire-fighting apparatus will pay J for itself several times over in the! Ci , j savipg on insurance premiums, to say ! nothing of the protection afforded i against a j ossible conflagration. Th? Hon. David B. IJill, if is an-! nouneed, v.ill letire from polities; after the present presidential cam-1 paign. There are some who think it might h' lp Judge Parker's cause if| the aforesaid gentleman sh.ml l fnl- { till his laudable int mtion pri ?r to November S. It is reported that in trio vicinity of Trio there arc at least three negro : organizations corresponding to t he j '' 'Fo' Day" clubs that were iv-pon- j sible for the Statesboro horror in j Georgia. For the sake of both races j we hope that the report is not aut lien- j tic. If it be true that these clubs dr. I exist let the meinheis read a lesson from the torn hie fate meted out to, their brethren recently in the nearby' State of Georgia. 6 \ SOUTH CAROLINA COLLEGE. Expansion ot Its Work and Its Splendid Facilit ies. For three venerations of nun the South Carolina ( ollege lias wrought its great work for the unification ami prosperity of the State. For three generations her sons have honored their alma mater by useful live* and splendid eitixenship, and today, in the chara-ter ami strength of the inetn!?ers of its faculty and in the variety and lltorough ness of its literary, sclent!ti--. and law courses, it stands eminent: in the quality of its work it is the peer of any j university t>r the South. A variety of | courses leading to the several bacealaureate degrees in Art, Science. Law. Engineering (Civil and Electrical), and Pedagogy, is offered, with '.lie most liberal choice of studies and the widest possible elective opportunity. The fnrultv has recently enlarged and Jn crea^l tlx? facilities f<?r a<{uate work, and lias placed the opportunity lor such advanced university studv within reach of all who may de-ire it, and who cannot go out of the State to obtain it. Every year the College ha>a number of students working for |>*?stgraduate degrees. Its chemical, biological. :.nd physical laboratories are well equipped and have eaeh a master teaeher at its head; and the College library, with its 155 UOU volumes, i?? the delight of a student's heart The College offers special induce-j mexts to ambitious young men and women in its generous provision for the conferring of scholarships on meritorious students at the close of et ch session. Five of these scholarships qre toiferied upon distinguished memberof the Freshman Class; four in the Sophomore Class, and three in the Junior Class. In addition to these scholarship*, by an Act of the General Assembly in 1904, two Special Jformal scholarships for men teachers are given j to each county in the State, the value I of each being equivalent to $9S?' This i 'g4ft cannot be regarded as a charitv? farv?rom It. The money will be paid back to the State a thousand told in the betUitmeut of the common school* j of the State, which are established and maintained solely for purpose (or should be) of rearing good citizens? j men and (wont en, whose lives shall he ! devoted to the common weal. The men ' who honestly accept the-e are not accepting charity, but are simply being partly paid in advance for the hard work, the self-sacrittce, the grind to which thev subject themselves for the good of the State, ' The teaching force of the faculty numbers seventeen protessors, adjunct professors a id instructors, each of whom is a specialist in his own department. and has enjoyed the finest advantages offered in the great universitiesj fof this country or Europe. Thcj president, faculty and students are working together harmoniously and as a unit for the good of the College. On the 18th day of last March Prut R. Means Davis. Professor of History and Political Science, the great teacher, the big-hearted man, the model citizen, died. His loss to the Coilege and to the .State is incalculable. At its meeting in dune the Hoard ot Trustees i- . -i .... C ,rrl r?n I clCCltu :t5 iinuwwn'. a ivm. -v- ? w.. U. Moure, a Virginian bv birth and a South Carolinian by year* of M-rvice. Professor Moore is a gentleina n and a scholar, a man of hig.t character o f great mental strength ami vigor and of long experience in successful teaching. He also has a worthy reputation as a great. baptist preacher. The Chair of Adjunct Prcfc.-Sor of Euglish has a so been established, and Mr. II. C. Davis, a South Carolinian and a graduate- of the South Carolina College, and la-t session a teacher of English in the University of Washington. at Seattle, was in June elected to fill this chair. The College is to be congratulated upon securing his service-. His success as a teacher is a>*ured. The advantages offered to the young men of the State by an institution are invaluable. : ^ i Edifor'Connfy Record:?
