AS to Clemson.

Representative Irby made a good
point in the Clemson College debate
when he urged that if Clemson were re-
ceiving too much money from the fer
tilizer tag tax the tax should be re-
duced or that part of it not needed by
Clemson should go into the State treas
ury. If Winthrop College or any other
state College needs more money in or
der to do the best work possible for the
youth of the State, the Legislature
should appropriate the money. Merely
because n College is held to be get
ting too much is not reason for giving
to another.
We think that the time has come
that Clemson should be a real College
IN other words, that the sub-college de-
partment should be abolished. Stu
dents not prepared to enter the College
classes should not be allowed in Glenn
son. The State does not maintain a
preparatory school in the South Caro-
lima College or the Citadel. The higher
classes of the common schools, which
are maintained by taxation, are in
tended to prepare boys for College and
they do prepare them. The higher
educational system of the State does
not contemplate a system of high
schools and the s~ub-college department
of Clemson is a departure wholly for
eign to the aims of the Legislature.
There are public schools in almost every
county fully as we'll equipped to pre-
pare boys for Clemson's freshman
class as are the preparatory classes of
Clemson.
Money spent on maintaining a high
school in Clemson is for the most part
wasted.

The Government Gouged.

Some time last year our people will
remember that several car loads of
Mexican children went through here
over the E. P. & N. E. from Ell Paso
and other points as little Indians to the
Indian school at Chilococo, Ok. Now a
squabble is up because great number
OF the so-caIled little Indians are not
satisfied and want to return home to
their hairless pet dogs and tamale land.
The government has also discovered
that the children are not the kind Of
Indians the school was established for
and so somebody is liable to get left
either financially or otherwise. One
thing sure, when fellow is dealing
with the government he may be able to
get his fingers In Uncle Sans eyes for a
while, but there are so many agents
and inspectors in the employ of the U.
s. government that 1t is practically
wasting time nowadays In an effort 10

At Forestar's Ranch.

A stroll out to Forrester's ranch will
show you what little energy will ac-
complish within few months. Several
acres are under fence, patch oflbarley
and alfalfa are coming up together and u
few more acres are ready for wheat and
alfalfa. A wind mill is on the ground
and soon well will be bored, as Mr..
Forester says he can get water at a
moderate depth. Mr.. Forester has
some so odd chickens and these are lay
ing. He also has good milch COW and
there you are--fresh eggs, plenty Of
butter and milk and ranch home.
Within a few more years about 100
choice fruit trees will be bearing and
there you are again-several acres of
alfalfa for hay and fruit added to chick
ems, hogs and miIch cows.

Death claims a Bright man.

From the New Mexican.
Roswell, N. M, Jan. 3O.-Harvey F.
M. Bear, editor OF the Roswell Daily
Record the only Democratic daily In the
Territory, and one of the best known
citizens of southeastern New Mexico,
died at his home in this city yesterday
morning Of ascending paralysis after an
illness Of three weeks. Mr.. Bear came
here two years ago from Wellington,
Kansas, where he was superintendent
OF the public schools for several years.
He establish ed the Daily Record soon
after his arrival.
He was staunch and .uncompromis-
ing Democrat and was strong advocate
of statehood in any form. He is sur

gether with father and mother who
reside here. His wife was Miss Grace
Thorp, formerly Of New York and a
cousin OF President Roosevelt. Charles

from New York and they may reach
here during the present month.
Mr.. Crippen is doing some good work
in the park in arranging for the care
and comfort of the ducks geese and
other park fowls. Mr.. Crippen believes
that fowls should be cared for and that
the small boy should be taught not to
practice with his ''nigger shooter" on
the fowls. Certainly the ducks and
geese add to the attractiveness of the
park and those who haven't sense
enough to appreciate them should be
made to keep out.

Kidnapped . Four.Ys.r Old ohad.

A Mexican by the name Of Pomposo
GriegO kidnapped little iour-year old
Mexican girl. at JuArez. Mex, about ten
days or two weeks ago and made bis
way to this place and from here went to
Highrolls where he secured work on the
A. & s. M. rs q section hand.
The story goes at the time OF the kid
mapping the mother, Sra. GregorIa San
ches, sent her little girl, JOsiiina. out
for loaf Of bread, but the child never
returned. She began a search with the
result that she learned that her baby
was stolen away and had gone towards
AlamogordO. Deputy sheriff Abraham
Molina Of Fl Paso gave Sra. Sanches q
letter Of introduction to Rev. E. QuI-
iiones Of this place and upon her arrival
here the case was given to Deputy Sher-
III JEFF Bransford who located the stolen
child at HighrOlls. With the mother of
the child Sr. Bransford went TO High
rolls TO recover the little one, and Sr.
Bransford tells It that the meeting OF
the mother and child was enough to
melt an iron heart. The kidnappor
said he had not stolen the child, but the
facts are against him and it Is a pity
that he is not sent back to Mexico to
suffer the penalty Of this crime. The
little girl said that she was coaxed
away by this Mexican and instructed to
call him papa and to give her name as
Josefina Moras, and that the two. kid
napper and herself, walked from FL
Paso to Aiamogordo. Sr. Bransford
brought the happy mother and child
back to Alamogordo where she took
the train for her home In Mexico. As
no papers were had for the arrest of
the kidnapper Sr. Bransford had no
right to bring him to prison. But it is
to be hoped that something will be done
to take the criminal back to his native
land, there to suffer for his dastardly
crime.

to put the road tax money where
it will do some good, building a

thus giving this precinct what it
most needs. By graveling roads

THE PRESIDENT AND IRRI.
CATION,

President Roosevelt has done
no better service to the country
than in exciting enthusiasm over
the irrigation of our great West
ern domain, and, his efforts to
prevent the absorption, by specu-
lative companies, of fertile land
capable of irrigation, and pre-
serve it for the farmers, should
be effectively seconded by feder-
al and local legislation, His
letter to the Irrigation Congress
should find hearty response in
the East as well as in the West.

for her demurrer to the indemnity sugges-
ton. If the payment of cash compensa-
ton to her victorious opponent would leave
her bankrupt, helpless and hopeless, 1t
might be in the interest of the worlds well
fare for the neutral powers to bring pres
sure to bear upon Japan to abstain from
such demand
But Russia is territorially vast and po-
tentially rich. Her resources are unlim-

expense of her gigantic schemes of expan-

very few years, with judicious domestic re-
forms of administration, to recoup her
losses.
Japan is In a more comfortable position
in the matter of the indemnity issue than
is Russia. The war game is virtually In
her hands. Prolongation brings no espe-
cial danger to the mikado, whose cash
terms for a peace settlement will naturally
advance with the war cost. Unless the
shameful proceedings which followed the
peace negotiations at Shimonoseki after the

The Stars Sunday Edition.
From the Atlanta Journal.


The first Sunday edition of the Wash
ington Evening Star is at hand, and it is
In every way worthy of that great after
noon paper. What 1t has been for six
days in the week it will continue to be for
seven days in the week." is the editorial
announcement with which The Star pre-
sents the initial Sunday edition, and that ia
saying great deal
The combination of an afternoon paper
with a large Sunday edition is an ideal one
The afternoon paper gives it's readers the
news OF the world the same day on which
events take place. The rise of the after
noon paper to its present supremacy is in
itself one of the most interesting CHAPTERS
in modern newspaper-making including as
1t does an insight into the development of
the art and science of news getting and the
expansion in. scope of the great press agen-
cies And the Sunday paper. which spans
the gap between Saturday and Monday, and
which, besides its telegraphic and local
news service. has become popular maya
zine, devoted to features and illustrations,
has made great fnroads into the circula-
zines.
The objection has often been made that
the issuance of Sunday paper takes the
seventh day of rest away from some one
that 1t should have no Judgment in the
popular mind any longer. The Sunday
paper Is manufactured on Saturday night
and long before Sunday dawns the men who
make 1t are endeavoring to forget, In the
pleasant realm of sleep, that such things
as newspapers exist 1t is the Monday
morning paper which requires Sunday la
Dor.
We congratulate The Star upon its real
ization of the fact that the publishing of
a Sunday edition is necessary part of the
functions of a great newspaper like The
Star. The Star, in Washington and the
newspaper, anyhow--it is an institution as
well.

1t is to be hoped the report that Gov.

to enter the race for Mr.. Carmack's seat

Gen. Wright has all the qualities that go
to insure success in liability. char

flee is so important to the country. and he
is filling 1t SO acceptably. one could wish
to see him remain in it for the present.
He has proved in every way to be a
worthy successor of Judge Taft, and that
Is high praise. In two years the Fill

sembly. with the lower branch elected by
themselves, and that will be time when
the government will have need of the best
talent and the most thorough knowledge
of the situation in the governor generals
office Judge Wright not only fills this
bill. but he enjoys the respect and con-
fidence Of the Filipinos In g. high degree
The Senate has Its attractions, and Mem
phis may be a pleasanter place OF resi-

sidered this distinguished Tennessean has
a greater call to stay where he Is than TO

Oil, and Troubled Waters.

Mr. Rogers of the Standard Oil Company,
In his statement in defense of Mr.. Rockefel-
Ter about the tainted money" transaction,
adds nothing of value to the controversy.
He speaks as much for himself as for his
friend. In effect he is asserting his own
right to give, and contending for the accept
ableness of any money he may bestow upon
worthy objects. He has acquired his for
tune from the same source that has yielded
so much to Mr.. Rockefeller, and therefore
is in the same boat with HIS friend If Mr.
Rockefellers money is tainted" so is Mr..
Rogers. The wallets of both men are
smeared with the grease of Standard Oil.
The racket continues over Mr.. Rockefel-
lers contribution to foreign missions, but
We hear very little about the fact that he
has contributed sums very much larger to
home missions. Education in America has
profited by his interest in it. The account
has not been cast up. but it must be large.
Are we more sensitive about the heather
than about ourselves? Is money that is not
good enough to educate the savage good
enough to educate the Christian? Why does
not some gifted casust attempt to show
that the affliction of Dr. Harper of the Chi
caeo University is a punishment due to the
tainted money he has accepted from Mr..
t-ONHSiSiiOi u TIE purposes OF
that excellent institution?
And how have Mr.. Rockefeller's butcher.
and his baker, and his candlestick maker
been conducting themselves about supply
Ing his wants in their respective lines of
business? Are they advised of the sort of
man he Is, and have they shown any
squeamishness about accepting his money?
The question raised by those Boston cler-
gymen reaches so far, as they would apply
1t. that the end is helplessness and confu-
sion. Mr.. Rockefeller's money could not be
red1stributed so that every one who has
contributed would receive his own back
again. That being quite impossible. and
the fortune standing in its enormous bulk
as a fact to be dealt with, what should be
done about 1t? If any portion of the money
is Objectionable coming from Mr.. Rookie
Teller direct. would it be less so If it came
through somebody to whom he had trans
ferred 1t? Would it be fair to slip such money
into the hands of a sensitive man, as the
lrishman while ION the water wagon re-
quested that whisky be slipped into his
soft tipple, "unbeknownst" to him?
