Every true friend Of the South
Carolina Military Academy regrets the
unfortunate affair hat occurred in
that institution last week and which
has resulted in the expulsion of sixty
four Of the cadets by the Board Of
Visitors. We arc. and hare always
been, a strong friend Of this grand old
institution, and the action Of the
Board may be for its future good. But
perhaps. like the unfortunate cadets,
the members Of the Board have been a
little too extreme. We fully realize
that strict discipline, in a military
school especially, is right and proper,
but boys will be boys the world over,
az We believe that all Of them could
hav, cen dealt with in some other
way vat would have impressed the
lesson m their mind throughout
their lives. Four Of the expelled ca
diets are from this County: we know
them personally, and all Of them are
heightened, worthy young gentlemen
from among our best families. We
have no doubt that the other sixty ca
diets are ,llcir equals ia every respect.
We believe al &c them would have
submitted TO Il cvcrc punishment
without a murmur. Cadet Cantcy
may have had acted from conscicn-
tious motives, but we believe lie made
a fatal mistake in reporting his fcl-
low cadets when he was not on guard
duty. 1t seems he had done this fire.
uucntly, and it was natural that he
would soon be discovered and treated
with contempt by his fellow cadets.
out our country Il alc-bcarcr among
the pupils is always dcspiscd by his
companions. These cadets have not
yet reached mature manhood, and we
sincerely hope that the Board Of Visi-
tors will reconsider its action and re-
~instatc the sixty-four cadets.

600, 600. The 1000, 900 bales pro
duccd in 1SH5-M; sold for 500 900,
600. The crop Of lS9i-?1 amounted
to S,73O,0 900 bales, sold for 1927 900
900. Or the big crop of lS94-95 sold
for Still 600, 900 less than the succeed
ing year, crop, although it was nearly
5000, 900 bales larger. The crop of
lsni.37 sold for $l99, O00, 900 moro
and was wei l.OOG, 900 bales less.
Thus it will appear that the larger the
crop the less it sells for and II 1000
