Iished to the world in our action in
June last; at that time We said:
Now, the board desires it TO be
distinctly understood that while they
have felt that they ought to give a
courteous consideration 10 the propo-
sition that has come to them from
Yorkville, their clear judgment is
they would not be justified from any
point OF view in accepting any propo-
sition for a change Of location that
did not offer the cleares: and most
manifest advantages to the college
that the Pres0yterians have entrust-
ed to their care (See The State,
june 9TH, 'o5, p. 2)
"The propositions submitted TO us
by the several communities, Clinton
included, now being before the pub
lie, the latter can judge for them
selves how far the board has adhered
to the principle thus announced.
"The proposition of Bennettsville,
constituting as it did case to itself,
the board still has under advisement." ."
Clinton Rejoiced.
The people of Clinton have been
more deeply interested in this project
than the people of any other town
making bid and there was general
jubilation at Clinton Thursday night.

He Became independent.

Charles NJ. Schwab, in the cool Of
the evening, was pacing Atlantic
City's board walk. Every little while
chairman, passing, would give him
such a salute as an emperor might
have envied.
8Why," said someone, "do these
chair-pushers greet Mr.. Schwab
so impressively?"
1T is because he tips them with
such generosity" another replied.
But Mr.. Schwab deprecated that
statement. Then, laughing, he said:
mo, ! am not extrsvagant in my
tips. AT the same time I try to
avoid the example that old Thomas
McWade set in Loretto in my
boyhood.
"One day Thomas pulled up his
team before the general store.
" Here Herb, hold my horse" he
said, getting down.
$50 Herb, a one-armed man, held
the horse ten minutes. Then Thomas
reappeared.
Thank you Herb was all he said
and he got in and drove off. And
Herb, who had expected at least
nickel, was too angry to say a
word.
But few weeks later Thomas
got down from his team at the
same place and asked the one-armed
man to hold it for him again.
"Herb, primed now, shook his
head.
No, Thomas,' he said, I've given
that up. I don't need to hold horses
no more
sHow's that?' asked Thomas.
Why Herb answered, what you
gave me last time has made me in

TO THE FARMERS
Merchants and Bankers of Newberry
County.

There is no modern business with
which I am acquainted that can not
use publicity to great advantage, and
I look upon the Farming business as
one that may be intensely benefited
by intelligent and logical discussion
in the newspapers Of this one I'M
portant fact, viz; That in order to be
of the greatest advantage to the pub
lie generally, the Merchants, Planters
and Banker must necessarily form d
monopoly to control the production
and the marketing Of the worlds
greatest crop-COTTON. The men,
bers of the Cotton Growers Associa-
tion have pledged themselves not to
sell and TO use their influence to keep
other Cotton off the market for less
than eleven cents. This action is a
noble one and will prove to the weak
how strong they really can be. We
Are Confirmed Bulls.
But we do not hesitate one moment
in advising our thousands Of clients
to sell Real Estate, Stocks and Bonds

The Swa,nc Impeachment Trial.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE entire
Of the senate's session today was
given to the Swayue Impeachment
trial. Four witnesses were examined.
All of them were from Pensacola.
Fla. aud they were introduced for
the purpose of showing that up to
1900 Judge Swayne had not acquired
u residence in his district in Florida.
During the proceedings the question
of the right of the house managers to
object to questions put to witnesses
by senators was raised. The presid.
ing officer ruled such objections
might be stated. The p~recedents
quoted were to the effect that while
questions be senator's should be ad-
mitted, counsel could properly object
to admissibility of replies made to
them.

LOOKS Rad FOR MITCHELL.
Oregon Senator Said To Have Been Com
nected With Land Frauds.

PORTLAND, Ore, Feb. 1.-THE eli.
max was reached today in the land
fraud cases, when Judge Albert H.
Tanner. indicted Feb. s, for the crime
of perjury, in regard to the date of
contract of co-partnership with United
States Senator John II. Mitchell, went
before the federal court and entered a
plea of guilty.
When, on Jan. 81, Judge Tanner
went before the jury he told a story,
which, according to his confession to.
day, had been agreed upon in many
of its details when Senator Mitchell
was in Portland in December last.
He said that there had been an agree
ment made between himself and the
senator. by which the vas not
to receive any return from firm work
done which would lead to either of the
departments of the government, and
that this agreement had been made on
March ), 1901. He introduced this
agreement in evidence before the
~ duu jury duO oNOIC IdC IL IdO D6Cu
written on the date specified.
The new agreement signed in Deem
Der Of last year contained q clause
not included in the original which pro.
vided tina all money received ia pay
ment for services rendered before the
government departments should 60 to
Tanner. In all other respects the last
agreement was identical with the orig
inal contract. Judge Tanner then
went on to explain the division of fees
between Senator Mitchell and himself.
Mitchell's share usually being sent to
him in the shape of a deposit tag
showing the amount. Judge Tanners
son., Albert II. Tanner, Jr., testified
that during Senator Mitchell's visit
in Portland last December, he pre-.
pared on a typewriter the new agree.
ment between his father and Senator
Mitchell, as confessed to by his father.
