YIELDING TO ROOSEVELT.

Washington, Dec. TOO much en-
phasis may be attached to the an
nouncement that Senators Burrows Of
Michigan and Perkins of California
have told the President that they will
not further oppose 20 per cent re-
duction in the sugar duties as con-
cession to Cuba to secure reciprocity.
This typifes the change OF sentiment
that has come over Western public men
since they have encountered sentiment
at home. but it is not of much i'm
portance as a surrender. The sugar
Senators do not believe they will be
confronted with the 20 per cent pro-
posal at this session they think, the
tangle in Cuba will hold the treaty
there for some time, and then that the
Senate will insist on political treaty
embodying, the terms of the Platt
amendment, before they consider the
commercial one. The friction between
the two houses regarding the authority
in treaties affecting the revenues may
make further trouble.
All things considerd, the sugar
Senator'S believe it fruitless to keep
up opposition to So popular a President
as Roosevelt, and also that it will
prove inexpensive to yield 20 per cent
concession, with the complications
which obstruct its coming into force.

eLEMsON's FINE TEXTILE SCHOOL.
The Director Tells of the Work
That it is Doing.

In his annual report to the board of
trustees of Clemson College President
Nell Incorporates the following in
formation furnished him by Prof.
J. H. Vi. Beatty, director of the
textile department. of the college, which
was established few years ago:
For the past few years, the in
crease in the production of manufac-
tured cotton goods, in the south,
has been at an enormous rate, so that,
at present, southern mills practically
control the output of plain white fab
RIGS. So long as there is baleof cotton
in the south to be manufactured, so
long may we expected cotton mills to
be erected in the south. Butsas the
coarse goods supply is already up to
the demands. the prospecting manu-
facturer must look into theSproduction
OF finer class of fabrics.
9 1t is the purpose of this school
TO prepare young men SO that after
they leave here, they may be COM
spetent to secure positions in mills
making any class of goods whatever.
This department. has endeavored,
and I think has succeeded, in keeping
abreast Of the needs of southern mills,
yet all of the divisions Of the work
are more or less hampered for lack of
proper equipment.
Several new machines, and also a
considerable amount of apparatus for
experimental purposes, have been
added TO the department., and some
other equipment has been arranged
for. But still the need for addition
al equipment is urgent. The supply
OF power looms is not adequate for the
number Of students using them.
Sometimes there are several students
working or the same loom or standing
about waiting an opportunity to get
loom On which to demonstrate some
design gotten out by them. This
prevents one getting the very best
work out of the students. As yet
there is no machinery in the school
for printing, mercerizing, ETC., and as
ali this class of finishing is done
north for southern mills. it is quite
important that we should make ar
rangements in the near future for CIV
ing instruction along these lines. To
add the machinery named above will
require. a considerable amount OF
money, for two reasons first, these
special machines are expensive, and
second, the multiplication of textile
schools throuhgout the country has
produced such a drain on the gen
erosity of machine builders that they
have arrived at the point of not
donating, but charging half price
for machinery shipped these schools.
So in the future we may expect to pay
something like half value for all
additional machine equipment. I"
President Nell adds:
8 Prof. Beatty also reports that the
past year has been the most success
full in the history of the school. The
scope and thoroughness Of the instruc-
tion have exceeded that of any former
year. All the instructors have been
deeply interested in their work, and
have put the students through
broader and more systematic course
of study. Several of the graduates
are holding important positions with
some OF the mills of this section"

Latest About The Charleston Ap-
poinfmants.

Washington, Dec. New develop
meats are daiiy expected on the confess
over the Federal appoin in South
Carolina. 4 delegation of Charles
tonians arrived hero this morning,
with the intention Of capturing the
marshalship and the col3ectorsfsp OF
the port for two white Republicans.
william. Lloyd is on the slate for
marshal AID William NJ. Bird expects
10 pull off the coleetorship. These
two gentlemen, accompanied by Capt.
James Redding, of Charleston, are
here to await the coming Of National
Committeem John Capers, who is
expected here within a few days. Mr..
LLOYD claims TO have the endorsement
oftnearly all of the leading commercial
interests of Charleston and has also
letters Of commentator and pledges
support from many infuentiai men
..hroughouG the country. Being a
native Of Pennsylvania, he has az his
back the leading Republicans cf the
ISeystone State. Without disclosing
his plans or indicating what induce
rnents were held ont for Mr.. Lloyd and
lIr. Bird to enter the race, an I'M
preston prevails that they were in
spired by some one in authority to en-
ter the contest. This impression IS
strengthened by a statement made to-
day By Senator McComas, of Mary
land, that DR.. Crum will not be ap-
pcinsed collector OF the port Of Char
lesion. He went Oh to say that Dr..
Crum may be provided for elsewhere,
but tie Senator repeated with great
positiveness that he knew the Presi-
dent would not appoint DR.. Crum
collector.
This positive statement from Senator
McComas was obtained today during
a conversation with him on the subject
Of the Crum appointment. 1t appears
that DIR. Crum called upon Senator
McConas few days ago to thank him
personally for the letter the Senator
was reported by Crum's friends TO
have sent to President Roosevelt re-
futing the charges of political treachery
by Crum at the Minneapolis Conyen-
tion. Senator McConlasi frankly in
formed Dr. Cruna that he had written
no such letter to the President, but as
sured him that he remembered that he

ton.
Senator McComas further stated
that DIR. Crum was one of the ten
Southern delegates to that convention
assigned to his special care. The Sen
ator added: 81 do not know who DR..
Crum was for when he arrived in Min
neapolis, but l do know that he was
for Harrison in the convention. - It
appears that Senator McComas is
familiar with the pending situation
so far as DR.. Crum is concerned, for,
without disclosing his authority for
saying so, he declared more than once
during the conversation that he was GER
tain DR.. Crum would not be appointed
collectorof Charleston. When pressed
for further information as to what
disposition the President proposed to
make of DR.. Crum, the Senator re-
plied: - am not prepared to say any
thing about that, but will be perfectly
safe in saying that DR., Crum will not
be appointed collector. News and

 Apropos of the smallpox scare in this city and the objection some people have to vaccination, the following from the Hartford Times is of interest just now: We gave recently some statis- tics of smallpox in France and Ger, many, showing how remarkably small number of deaths from the dis ease occurred in Germany. which com pels infant vaccination, and comparing It with the ravages Of smallpox in france, where the vaccination was not so required. Now comes news thar France has adopted a plan like that of Germany. Under a new law inst nro- mulgated vaccination is compulsory within the first year of q child's life ls IS also revaccination in the course of the eleventh and twenty-first year Responsibility rests with the manici- pal authorities in towns of more than zo,OO0 Inhabitants, and with a depart mental service in communes with q population below that figure.

The wage earners of the United States, says Prof Ely in a recent magazine article. number some fifteen million men, women, boys and girls Of ten years of age or over Their aver age individual earnings are $4O0 q year. But on an average two persons are dependent upon each wage earner for support which means that three people must live on that average wage of about S33.33. Investigation has shown that about q quarter of d workingman's wage goes to rent, and about half to food and fuel Thus this average worlSingman, with his family of two, will have left each month after paying for the roof over his head, and the food needful to sustain life, about $S.30 a month for clothing, medicine, recreation, and q bank account against q rainy day, or the time when he shall become superannuated." Prof Ely very naturally says ill the face of these figures that '.the terms of our economic problem cannot be solved by thrift alone.' And indeed the poorest en- to thrift is the knowledge that with the utmost pinching economy for years the savings of family will be inadequate to meet the needs of six months of idleness or two months of costly sickness.

Commercial relations between the United States and Spain, says one writer, have been resumed with ap- parently greater cordiality and cer- tainly with greater activity than ever before The figures of the treasury bureau of statistics show that both the imports into the United States from Spain and exports from the United States to Spain were, with q single exception, greater ill the calendar year 1901 than ill any preceding year. Our imports from Spain during the year ending with December 1901 amounted to $7.O4O,75S, and our ex- ports to Spain were SIG, 7S5, I'll. Com pairing 1901 with 1891, it is shown that our imports from Spain have grown from $4,906,475 to $7,040, ,75S, and that exports ito Spain from the United States have increased from $12, ,SS7, ATT to $16,7S5,711. Comparing present conditions with those of 1898. it ap- pears that our imports from Spain have increased from $3, eos, ,30S in 1898 to the above mentioned figure. S7.O4O.- foS; and our exports to Spain from SS,05O,475 in 1898 to SIG, 7S5. I'll. as already stated.
