An. Well that Ends Well.

Never In his life did Mr.. TllImsn appear
quito SO well ~ in the recent meeting of ths
Board OF Trustees Of Clemson College. He and
tho hoard gave due and proper consideration
10 the important issues before them and their
decisions were wise. Judicious and polite
all tending TO the welfare Of tho students and
TO the prosperity Of the College In which all oi
south Caaoiina takes so much interest.
The conduct OF the stndents was most ad-
mirsbis and commendable. Their bearing
and ability In conducting their part Of the
trial vas all that the most learned or the
most ex xperlenced person could desire.
Mr.. Simpsons conduct will be approved.
President Harizog. under the most trying
circumstances, commanded respect and sym
pa,hy. He fully realized that there was oP-
positIon TO him, and his high sense oi honor
and his proud spirit prompted him To mana
hack TO the trustees the commission Win
which he had been entrusted. True man.
hood was not to be weighed In the oa'ance
against the honors and emoluments OF the In
stitution. He, like Mr.. Tiilman. stnna| h'gh
er In the public opinion than ever before
Even n he emit manage great college sue
cessfuliy, he is man.
Rnt whether the members OF the Clemson q
,a.uitv remain In com mission, or whether
,ne board OF trustees pisass the pibiin, In ol
small concern, except co:iateraliy. II Ia the
welfare of the young gentlemen Who Compose
the classes OF that Institution about which The
,eopls ofSouth Carolina are concerned. IL u
On their behalf that they feel grateful 10 th'
Clemson trustees. While the boys OF Clen
sop have no reason TO crow over any body
vet they have substantial reasons 10 be CRATE
fui fur the wisdom and the jus
tics with which their appeal was regarded anc
decided. They gained every point In theil
contention, besides reaiizing what they mos
desired, but what they least expected, thu
resignation of President Hartzog.
Il may be well for the trustees at their meet
ing during the first week In June. 70 enquirs
n there are others than President Hartzos
Who might well hand In their resignations
The feelings and the welfare OF tho indivic
uai Professors IL OF but small consequence 70
tho public II is the welfare OF the ipstitu
,ion that concerns the people.
The testimony would lead To the belief that
in the matter of suspending Cadet ThorhweI
that President Harlzog Was less directly con
ccrned than Others. Should President Hart
zog be made n scapegoat while others &c
tree?
II the board of trustees, In their June meet
inz shou ID act az wisely and as discreetly as
they did last week, the welfare OF the college
In assured, aud its still greater usefainess In
the future will be certain.

The new smeiter at the property OF
the Calabasas Copper Company has
been closed down and the firm of

agents have ordered a change In man
agement Captain } ~ Burgess has
been retired as manager Of the prop
erty and consulting engineer for the
company Thomas ~ Selby has been
selected as the new manager with
+. w Spencer as assistant
The smelter has been in operation
only a short time. II was found that
the old management had blown in the
smeltcr before they had ore enough on
the dump to run 1t. When the ore on
the dump gave out. they tried to get
ore enough out of the mine to run the
smelter. but it was found that ore was
being smelter which would not pay
the expenses of mining and reduction,
at the present price of copper.
The new management of the mine
will do development WORK only for the
next thirty days They will extend the
tunnels deepen the shafts and block
out the ore III at the end OF month.
they find that they have enough ore
on the dump and in sight in the mine
TO run the smelter for a considerable
period. it will be blown again.
About thirty-tive men will be put
to work developing the mine and as
many more from time to time as can
find room to work in the tunnels and
shafts. II at the end of month the
management finds that the mine does
not show up well enough to begin the
production of copper. the development
work will continue for another month.
The change in management Is the re-
suit of a recent visit paid to the prop
erty by r. r. Spencer. one of the MEM
hers of the firm of Douglas, Lacey and
Company. and Captain l.. d. Phillips,
their local representative at Prescott.
After an investigation. they decided
on the change.

in the city is not only urged but ex-
pected to be present.
The committee will make theirreport

upon bv all of those present and not
nv the members OF the old Board of

business men and firms on the roll
and they had not participated actively
in the work of the board for some
time.

site the company wishes the city to
donate. They will then know just how

borne by the respective business men.
As yet nothing has been heard from

Formally Sentenced to
Death at Last
THE FINAL ACTI0N
Taken bv the 6Itu Council at
Special Meeting last
Night Smashing VIII
Soon BGQln.

The city Council took the final
step in The proceedings for the removal
Of block 2o7 of the wedge at special
meeting held last night. The mayor
and all of the councimen were pres
ent except MeSsrs Reid and Shand, A
communication was read from I. j.
WilIaeseusa Offering voluntary con
tribution of $25U 10 be applied to the
reduction OF the wedge assessment.
The aouncit decided To apply this sum
10 the assessment levied against Lizzie
Murphy
Before the report Of the special COM
mitttees, which levied the assessment
was read the council called upon A. NJ.
Franklin. who was present and asked
him what progress had been made by
The committee of citizens that had
been raising a subscription
among citizens interested in the re-
moyal OF the wedge but not directly
benefited. Mr.. Franklin reported that
he had collected sll0 to be applied 10
modify the benefits assessed. On the
strength OF this. the report of the
special committee consisting of
Messrs Samaniego Plumer and Flynn,
was accepted as modlned. ,
On motion of Congressman Russell
the mayor was instructed TO issue a
warrant for collection of the sum as
sessed to the city tax collector. He will
give those assessed thirty days notice,
when they must pay their respective
assessments as they become liens on
the property. The city assessor will pay
the sum collected to the court to sat
isfy the verdict awaded Louis j. San
ford. who owns the block condemned
and the tenants who Were allowed
damages
A communication was read from
Mssrs. Samaniego. Flynn and Plumer,
who composed the special assessment
committee in which they waived all
claim of fees for services as members
Of this committee, and requesting that
the sum total of the assessment be re-
duced the amount covered by the fee.
The communication stated that the
committee were induced to take this
action to assist the citizens in the
widening of Congress street. which
they believed to be public improve
ment to which all public spirited citi-
zens should lend their assistance. The
nlll Tor tnelf service, "HiCH diiiouhted
to sl65. was deducted from the sum
total of the assessment.
As soon as the assessment is paid
to the Court work will begin on the
removal of block 207. fhe balance o.
the wedge is included in a single suit
instituted by the city against the prop
erty holders. This suit comes up at thu
next term Of court. Ii includes the
block in the wedge between Church
and Court streets and thirty-nine and
one half feet of the south end Of the
lots on the north side of Congress
street from Court street west. The same
procedure will nave to be gone through
to condemn this property, assess a
valuation and collect it.
