When asked what he thought of the Cor
bett-Jeffries go Mccoy said:
81 know sporting men are ridiculing
the match, but I should like to make a
prediction. If Jeffries fights Corbett the
way he did when he met Fitzsimmons
and Sharkey, I firmly believe Corbett
will get a decision on points. That is to
say, unless Jeffries forces the fight, he
will be at a disadvantage, for Corbett
will not adopt rushing tactics, as did
Sharkey and Fitz. Jeffries showed when
he fought Armstrong here some time ago
that he is not fast at forcing matters,
and as Corbetts leg work cannot be
beaten If he is fit, Jeff will have hard
time of it,"
When asked IL he believed he could
whip Corbett, Mccoy smiled and said:

ing the trustees the right to build rail
roads, nlacadam roads, tramways and
highways within its incorporate limits,
and to construct a railroad along the
highway from the College to Calhoun
Station, if deemed advisable, with the
power to condemn rights of way there
for when necessary.
Owing to the fact that many of our
instructors were unmarried men we
have been able to provide house room

hand of some ten thousand dollars.
This balance cOnld have been profita-
bly, expended in making cnlargements
to the equipment of the divisions men,
toned above, but in the management
of such an institution as Clemson Col
lcgc it is not good business tC appropri-
ate all of our income at the beginning
of the year.
To make the enlargements of build
ings and equipments before mentioned,
to keep pace with the rapid develop
ment OF science, to preserve the Col
lege property, to properly take care of
the students now here, and to maintain
the high standard which Clemson now
enjoys, it will require, to meet these
improvements, together with the cur
rent expenses, and to MAINTAIN a sufli-
cient balance on hand to meet emer-
gcncies, all the balance now on hand
left over from last year, and all of the
this year inspection tax, even if the
amount should be as large as received
last year.
In conclusion we desire to call at
tcntlon to one Of the results growing
out OF the pa. ticular instruction given
at Clemson. Within SIX weeks after
the last class graduated every member
o! the class obtained good position
at salaries averaging 5000. Besides
all of the graduates, or nearly all of
them, are proftably employed in pos
itions heretofore inaccessible to the
young men Of this State. Many of the
graduates of the electrical division are
now receiving larger salaries than we
pay the professor of electricity.
All that we ask from the Legislature
is that the condition heretofore exist
ing be allowed to remain as it now is.
If this is done we will guarantee the con
tlnued development and prosperity of

stores in this city have adopted the
spot CASH system with gratifying sue
cess, while a large number of others
do business on thirty days time, max
ing collection monthly. This one ad-
vantage cannot be ovel estimated, and,
in my judgment, the time is not far
distant when in sections where cotton
mills are built the retail business will
be cash. This is not only true of the
city trade, but exte Ids to the farmers
as well. The large number of con-
sumers added toa community in mill
help makes steady and profitable
market for the smaller products of the
farm. The potato patch, which was
formerly for family use, has been en-.
larged and the increase marketed.
Butter, milk, chickens, eggs, ETC., are
now regarded as just so much cash as
soon as they are taken to market, and
these in no small way produce ready
money all the year round for the minor
needs of the family, and the balance of
money needed for making the crop is
obtained from the banks.
"With the building of the mills here
have come important improvements in
business property. Old stores have
been lemOdelcd and new ones built.
"A vacant business house Is now rarity.
OF course, these conditions have affect
ed prices. | know of one considerable
piece of business property (vacant) on
Main street, il part of which sold for
$GG per front foot, that now sells for
500. In suburban property l know
CT one piece which was bought for $3.50
per acre that is now selling for 81 900
pei acre.
"The mill hands live well, and
practically spend all of their wages in
the towns where the mills are. A
small proportion finds its way into in
vcstments, chiefly around town or IN
small farms. In not few instances a
farmer finding himself unable to lift a
mortgage on his farm, goes to the cot
ton mill, and with the wages he re-
ceives in few years pays off the mort
gage and returns to the farm.
"The building of the cotton mill in
the South has been the salvation of
white labor. In mill work is to be
found the only line where competition
is not had with cheap negro labor. The
eHccts OF TINS are just beginning to be
felt. The future results are greater
and more radiant than any man can
foresee.
"Gcnerally stated, the new condi-
tions are these A bale of cotton is
made 10 bring twice as much manu-
factured as raw. The cost of manu-
facture ranges from thee and one-half
to five cents per pound, according TO
class of goods. That is all spent at
home. Under present conditions the
profits range from two and one-half to
four cents per pound. This goes as
dividends and increased capacity of
plants. The resultant is more bust
ness locally IN every line, more equally
distributed throughout every month in
the year."

THE VELVET BEAN.-The velvet
bean has been on a boom for several
years. This crop perhaps has been
more extensively advertised than any
other crop that can be grown in Flor
ida. Perhaps, as with everything else
that is doomed, too much was claimed
for the bean, but Notwithstanding this
we think there have been few disap-
pointments, and 1t is, we believe des-
tined to be one of Florida's staple
crops, at least among progressive farm
ers.
The boom period having now pass.
ed, the bean is getting down to busi-
ness and showing what it can do in the
way of fatlening hogs, feeding stock
and renovating the soil. The acreage
in this crop next year will be largely
increased and those who have seed
shoald have no difficulty in finding a
profitable market.

THE EFFECT OF COTTON MILLS

The great increase during recent
years in the number of cotton mills in
the South Is the result, primarily, of
the knowledge that such undertakings
pay handsomely for investments In
them. The movement has been one
of con ant accelcration, into which
other elements than mere dividends for
stockholders have entered Actual
money received from the operations of
mills has not been the only incentive
to prompt subscriptions to the stock of
new companies and lively campaign
of organization. One of the most
powerful impulses, perhaps, has been
The effect Of cotton mills upon the
communities in which they hare been
established and upon the surrounding
country.
The Manufacturers Record has re-
Gently received several letters from the
cotton mill region of the South detail.
ing the effects upon the community
and the surrounding country of the es-
tablishment of cotton mill. Mr..
Frank Hammond, president of the
Peoplc's Bank of Greenyille, S. c.,
writes
cit is now about twenty five years
since the first successful cotton mill
was built in this county, the Piedmont
mills in 1876, situatsd some ten miles
below here. What were then poor
hillside farms have been transformed
into thriving village of 5000 people.
The Saluda river, that ran to waste,
now is made to turn 81 900 splndles,
using $4,000 bales of cotton and
marketing its product all over the
world. Farm lands then worth $3.50
per acre now sell for $40 to $50 per
acre. The experience at this mill
is but a duplicate of score or more of
other mills in this State. The mills i'm
this city are of much later date, all
with the exception of the Huguenot
having been built during the last five
years.
"Perhaps the most noticeable effect
from the building of the mills is a
more even distribution of money
throughout the whole year. In any
strictly agricultural section the bulk of
business is largely during the period of
The marketing of the crop. This is
true Of the South. Long
credits and yearly settlements are the
rule. This has all been changed.
