A GENERAL SCALING DOWN.
Prof.ssorships in the University Abolish
cd and Salaries Reduced.

cd and Salaries Reduced.
COLUMBIA, Jan. 29.-A scheme TOR
the reorganization Of the South Carolina
university which will probably be
adopted under the new order Of things
has been prepared by the sub committee
of trustees appointed for that purpose,
and their rspert will be considered and
acted upon tomorrow night by the exec
atlve committee OF the uuiversitY's beard
of trustees.
The chief points Ia the proposed
scheme have been given to the press,
and as will be seen, are chiefly in the
line Of the reduction ofthe appropriation
necessary to conduct the Institution On
its new basis.
Another change, it is understood, is
to have the management Of the unIver-
sity more directly controlled By the trus-
tees instead Of as heretofore by The IA
Guilty.
Under the new plan the proposed e1-
pcnses of the salaries Of the president
and other officers will be brought down
TO 81. 600 annually, while the library and
infirmary fund is to be reduced to $1,000.
The general expenses for running the
university are to be cut down to sG.72O
\ saving Of s. $50 is to be expected by
abolishing the chairs Of pedagogics, vet
criuary science, mechanical engineering,
pharmacy, bacterologv and doctorins
and by dong away with the services OF
one tutor, foreman Of the machane shop,
foreman of the blacksmith shop, and
foreman Of the wood shop, reduction 10
the salary of the assistant chemist and
that of the secretary. TO this saving IS
to be added $1,000 wiped Out by reason
OF abolishipg the mechanical department,
that sum having been required for run
ming expenses. 1t is possible a further
reduction of $500 may be made as fol-
lows: Reducing from three-to two the
chairs Of English and moral philosophy
and rhetoric and logic; by combining
English and rhetoric. and also lloral
philosophy and logic; also by abolishinS
the prtessorship CT biology and djvid-
ing tue work between the professor OF
geology and the president also by COM
bining the chairs Of physics and matha-
matlcs and employing an assistant pro-
fessor.
This reorganization contains so much
amputation and liberal blood-letting in
the way of reduction in salaries that the
friends of tie Institution can scarcely be
blamed for fearing that death or a coma
tose state may ensue. Whether the iull
committee will adopt SO radical plan
remains to be seen. but it is considered
very probable that the scheme outlined
in the above may be adopted.

Tne report that the State Board o
Equalization proposes to raise the
valuation of Wood county lands is

nation in all parts of the county.
The property is already valued at a

County Auditor Wilson was present

bus, and states that that august body
in their wisdom and knowledge oi
things had concluded to raise Wood
county 50 per cent. but had finally
dropped to 20.
Because Il few townships have devel
oped oil and gas and the lands have
sold for good prices on that account,
all the lands in the county must be
valued at the same rate and taxed
accordingly.
How can gas and oil be valued wher
it is under the groundp Who knows
how much there is OF it until it is pro
duced. Is il the land that is valuable
No, il is the the product OF the land
and the product should be taxed ant
not the land-eXcept at its value
for agricultural purposes.
Because oil is developed in Henry
township, land in Perrysburg township
which don't even smell of oil, must b,
raised in valuation. This thing dom
show good sense, and If there is any
way that it can be adjusted i
is to be hoped the way will be dis
covered and adopted most awfully

The Masonic home proposed by the
Masons of Ohio, has been given much
thought of late, by the trustees in
whose hands the affair has been placed.
1t is understood suitable grounds will
be donated by the various towns that
are dcsirous of securing the home'
but Masons in all parts of the State
are taking an active part in helping
to raise the necessary funds for the
noble work. 1t has been suggested
by number of Toledo masons that on
June 9th next, st. Johns day, and
the day set apart as n day of masonic
remembrance, for the worthy ones,
basket picnic be held at Put-in-Bay,
with a ride on the new steamer City of
Toledo.
1t is too early in the season to pre-
dict what will be done by Perrysburg
masons, but they will undoubtedly
lend helping hand in the good work,
us they have done in the past.
Old Phoenix Lodge was the first,
we believe, to respond to the call last
year, with liberal contribution to
this noble work.
