One ot these, too, is situated twen- L ty-five or thirty miles from the railroad.

B ture to cut the cnormou- amount ei that goes to maintain Clemson Col- w lege and give one-half to the public' schools of the State. One-half of; about three hundred thousand dollars would help a great deal in m building up the rural schools and it v< docs really seem that Clemson could r8 4 ii , ,, . w worry along on the same amount L?i per annum. 1 te Politics takes queer turns "over in! gc Georgia." Hoke Smith, defeated H by Joe Brown three years ago, turned around and vanquished "Little Joe" last summer in the primaries, fh Hardly had Hoke taken his seat as * ij Governor, however, l>efore he announced his candidacy for the office ar of Cnited States Senator to till out w Senator Clay's term.
