The Episcopal College.

The Committee that was appointed
last summer to see what could be done
in the effort to locate the Episcopal
College in Laurens has again taken up
the work in good earnest. They are
determined to find out what can be
done by April LIST.
They are going to do their duty and
it remains with the citizens of Laurens
to say whether they will give the ne
cessary support.
We have had nearly a year to think
about it and every one should under
stand fully the Importance of the pro-
position.
AS a matter of civic pride we ought
to be glad to aid in the establishment
of the school, but as a matter of bust
ness we cannot afford to leave a stone
unturned.
If a person owns 81, 900, 90 worth Of
property in Laurens now, would the es-
Enlistment of such a school increase
the value of that property to 81, 100. 90
or over. If so, such a person contri-
buting $l00.00 for that purpose would
be out nothing. We think it a per-
fectly safe proposition to say that the
increase in value would be more than
that.
The property holders are not the
only ones to be benefited. 1t will be
of infinite value to every individual in
the city and county. To parents who
have girls to educate it will save board
and travelling expenses and besides en-
able them to retain the home in1u-
ences Owe their children.
We can not undertake to enumerate
the advantages of such an institution.
They ought to be sufficiently apparent
to every thinking man and woman in
Laurens. This is their opportunity and
it is their last opportunity. If they are
going to act they must be up and do
ing. Don't wait for your neighbor.
Do your duty to your city and to your
family. This is your affair, more than
another's. 1t is your child and your
property that is effected.

MIR. Barksdale Resigns.

Mr.. r. Beverley Herbert, of Column
bia, has been appointed clerk or the de-
partment of immigration in place of
Mr.. G. Douglas B~arksdale of Laurens,
who resigned several days ago,
Mr.. Barksdale was appointed clerk
when the department was established,
but found that his personal business at
Laurens necessitated his remaining at
home and he rendered his resignation
several days ago.
In announcing this change Mr.. Wat
son said: cit was with mutual regret
that Mr.. Barksdale's resignation was
rendered and accepted. Mr.. Barksdale
found some time ago that his business
affairs at home would require his undi-
vided attention and thatit would be ne
cessary for him to return to his home.
In the office of the department he has
been an exceedingly valuable man, and
it was with sincere regret, both per-
sonally and officially, that his resigna-
ton was accepted, and that our pleas
ant relations have been severed. In Sc
Letting Mr.. Herbert for the |
have acted, as see it, for the best in
t%erests of the department, as Mr.. Her.
bert possesses exceptional qualifications
and has had experience which peculiarly
fits him for the work. His labors in
Great Britain for the department last
summer were productive of most graft
flying results and proved beyond ques-
ton his fitness for the position he now
takes, News and Courier.
