A HINT FROM GERMANY.
Washington Post.l

An interesting report has just been
made to the German government by a
body Of scientists who visited this
country last year-a report that con.
tains much that should command tho
attention of educators In this coun-
try. Special commissions, representa-.
tives Of trade and industrial Organiza.
lions. and prominent individuals, in
terested in social and economic stu.
dies. have been coming to America In
rather large numbers for several years.
We have entertained them In various
ways. We have shown them through
our stock yards and steel mills, whirl.
ed them through our mountains, and
allowed them to enjoy our scenic speci-
alties, entertained them In our million.
dollar hotels and in our homes, and
sent them back awed, as we have fond.
enterprise, our boundless resources.
and our wonderful civilization. These
visitors have been most delightful
guests, and have given every indica.
ton, while in this country, that they
were profoundly impressed with us,
dazed by our advantages and advance
ment. Then, after they have been
home a while, and had time to think
II over, they make reports which point
out our weak spots, the defects in our
social, educational, and Industrial sys.
TENS. The worst of 1t is, too, that
their conclusions are usually right.
The American consul general at Der.
lin has just written report upon what
the German visitors last year learned
In America. These visitors have in.
formed their government that great as
America is, we will not be dangerous
competitor Of Germany after we have
used up little more of our abundant
supply Of raw materials In our manu-
featuring industries. This contention
IL based on the lack Of technical educa.
ton in this country, as compared with
that In Germany, where every work.
man is a master Of his trade.
The report Of the commission asserts
that American colleges turn out q
host Of professional men. and but few
skilled artisans and craftsmen. The
meagerness Of technical education, the
trivial annual contingent Of chemists,
dyers, weavers, and electricians, seems
a short'sighted policy for country Of
100000 people," All that we can do
is to plead guilty to this severe in
dictment. Our system provides for a
broad, liberal education, but there is
a positive lack of the useful, lack
that is being remedied, but not rapidly
enough by any means to meet the
needs. There is food for thought In
the friendly criticism of the German
commissioners.

TEXTS FOR the LEGISLATORS.

Members Of the Legislature. .ow
assembled, made definite promises to
the people of these islands in their
platform and on the stump. On the
basis of these promises the members
were elected. Chief among these
promises were pledges to pass laws foe
Local self-Government
Schools,
Homesteads, .| ....
which represent foundation principles
OF American government.
Members of the Legislature cannot
do better than take for their text the
following statement made by Presi.
dent Roosevelt in one of his public
speeches.:
"It is absolutely essential, " we are
% have the proper standard Of public
life, that promise shall be square with
performance. A lie 10 no more to b
excused In politics than out Of politics.
A promise 10 ss binding on the stump
a. OF the stump, and these are two
facets Of that crystal. In the first place
the man who makes a promise which
he does not intend to keep and does
not try to keep should rightly be
adjudged to have forfeited In some de-
gree what should be every mans most
precious possession-his honor"
Should Roosevelt's teachings not
seem sufficient let them turn to few
words of wisdom from Tom Watson
when he said:
"Woe unto leaders who trick the
people and then boast Of II! Woe unto
leaders who forget that the American
people have heart and conscience, con-
vletions and sense Of honor! Such
men may triumph for a day, but only
for the day. Not for them are the
greater victories which ennoble this
human race"

through the medium Of publicity, and
1t might in that way destroy our plans
and. perhaps-now remember, perhaps
defeat our ends"
Having established motive. Con-
WINGED almost beyond doubt that an
attempt to poison was made on Janu-
airy 14th, do you believe, assuming Mrs.
Stanford's death was caused by poison
ing in Honolulu. that the act was the
result Of concerted plot which origi
mated here?"
Mr.. Wilson hesitated again.
WELL" he said, after his pause, Eve
must first learn beyond question that
Mrs. Stanford died of poisoning before
could speak further on that. As l
said before, when we know more def.
nitely the real cause of death, we can
then be in position, perhaps, to talk
more positively for publication"
And this was as far as the cautious
lawyer would go. And this leaves the
suspected motive still in the air.

Discrimination charged.
Representatives from districts other

minimum elsewhere. The minimum

cotton belt" said he, land those from
the field agents of the department are
received by the statistician under seal
and placed in a safe. On the day
when the totals are to be footed and
the estimates made. these reports are
taken from the safe in the presence OF
myself the statistician and such as
sistants as we may need to do the
work. Behind locked doors we exam
inc the reports and make up the re-
port which, as soon as we complete the
task, is given to the public. There Is
no possibility, so far as I can under
stand, Of anybody obtaining advance
information as to the report made
public. l can conceive that. by col
fusion with an agent here or there In
the country, one might obtain a little
information, but 1t would be of no
value whatever" Secretary Wilson
indicated his intention, however, OF In
stituting an inquiry into the charges,
with a view to eliminating any possi-
bility OF fraud. He said that so far
as he knew, Mr.. Hyde, the statistician
of the department, had no idea OF
postponfng his trip to Europe on ac-
count of the charges which had been
made public.

THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.

The county board Of commissioners
held their regular monthly meeting In
the office of the supervisor last We'd
nesday and transacted such business
as seemed to require their attention.
A committee of Bethel citizens ask
ed that the next move of the chain
gang be to Bethel township on the
Rock Hill and Chester and Saluda
roads. The request was taken under
advisenent.
Mr.. Samuel Friedheim of Rock Hill,
asked that the chaingang be allowed to
do a weeks grading on the Nation
Ford road. promising that the work
would ultimately be macadamized.
Messrs. w. B. Riddle and Joseph w.
Patrick presented a petition asking for
the opening of a road running be-
tween the homes Of Messrs. T. j. and
j. w. Patrick. via the homes Of Mrs.
to the North Carolina line. The mat
ter was taken under advisement and
members of the board will go over the
proposed route before announcing a
decision.
Messrs. w. B. Wilson and w. II.
Wylie representatives of the Catawba
Power company. appeared before the
board at the invitation of Mr.. j. l..
Rainey with reference to the matter
of the bridge across Allison creek. II
is the same old story that has been
repeated time and again. Messrs VIII
son and Wylie stated as to how the
power company, recognizing it was
responsible for the interruption OF
travel across the creek sought to build
a bridge under a contract with the
commissioners. After work had got
ten we'll under way. the power compa-
ny having spent some 500, the COM
missioners let drop an intimation that
the work would not be accepted, and
further operations were suspended.
They offered. however, to give the
county one thousand dollars toward
the erection of such bridge as the
county might consider necessary.

PROBABLY FATALLY HURT.

Mr.. Paul G. McCorkle, formerly Of
Yorkville, now Of Chester. was the VIC
tim of a terrible accident In that town
yesterday, and It Is a matter Of grave
doubt as to whether he can escape
with his life.
While Mr. McCorkle was out driv-
ing yesterday afternoon with Mrs. Nc
Corkle and their little boy, the horse
became suddenly frightened and ran
away. Within short distance the
buggy was overturned and all the oc-
cupants were thrown out. Mr.. Nc
Corkle held on to the reins and fell
under the feet Of the horse, which
kicked him twice in the face.
From such information as can be
gathered, 1t appears that both blows
landed under Mr.. McCorkle's left eye,
breaking his cheek and nose bones and
mangling his face most horribly. He
was picked up In an unconscious con-
dition and up to this morning had
shown no signs of Improvement.
Mrs. McCorkle was more or less
bruised by her fall but was not seri-
ously injured. The little boy, Will
liam H. McCorkle, escaped unhurt.
The first news Of the shocking acci-
dent came to Yorkvllle last night In
a telegram to Mrs. B. N Moore. Mr..
McCorkle's sister. Mr.. and Mrs.
Moore went to Chester last night, Mr..
Moore returning this morning and Mrs.
Moore remaining at the bedside Of her
brother
Mr.. McCorkle is a son of the late
Col. w. H. McCorkle Of Yorkville. He
has been engaged in the cotton busi-
ness in Chester for a number Of years
past and stands high in the estimation
of everybody. He has many friends In
Yorkville who are sorely distressed at
the misfortune that has befallen him.

THE development Of American COM
merce means the development of every
American interest. Take for instance
the one question of cotton production
and manu- .acture. If the farmers pro-
duce more cotton than the mills can
use. the price will necessarily be low.
Raw cotton is Of but little value to the
farmer and of still less value to the
cotton mill Let the demand for man
ufactured goods be greater than the
mills can supply with their present
facilities and there will be more mills
with more facilities. Presently the
mills will he calling for more cotton
than the farmers can raise. That will
make prices hum. But there is no
need to lc X for such n development
under pre-. mt conditions. We can
manufacture cotton at a less cost than
Europe can manufacture 1t; but we
cannot comoete with Europe in foreign
markets for the simple reason that
Europe has the advantage of us in
transportat. on facilities. We have to
look to Great Britain. Germany and
France to carry over goods for US and
put them on the market. All of these
countries are our competitors I'm the
manufacture of cotton goods, and they
are not going to try to sell our pro-
ducts until after they have disposed
of their own. This means that al
though our goods may be superior I'm
quality. they will not bring so good a
price. The only way out of the diff
Guilty is for us to carry our own goods
to market in our own ships. Foreign
ers understand this perfectly and it Is
their purpose to discourage us by
means of the sharpest kind of compe-
iition and by means of subsidies; but
we have been learning and ii Is to be
hoped that we will learn some more.

- The Yorkville Building and Loar

portunity to be had about here for the
profitable investment of small saw

which permits stockholders to with

Route Agent Leary Of the South

The second annual meeting Of the
stockholders of the Yorkville Building
and Loan association was held In thr
Office of c. E. Spencer, Esq, last Wed
nesday afternoon. A majority Of the
stock was represented. The report OF
the secretary and treasurer showed
that about $4,000 of the 100000 capi-
tai stock had been subscribed, and that
up to date there was a profit OF
about $50 after the payment of all
initial expenses. Considering the fact
that Building and Loan associations
seldom get to a paying basis In less
than three years after organization
the showing was quite satisfactory

Good Advertisement Anyway.
Writing from Clinton to the CO.
lumbia State under date of Wednes-
day, William Banks has the following
to say with reference to the proposed
removal of the Presbyterian College
Of South Carolina from Clinton to
Yorkville: "The agitation for the re-
removal Of the college to Yorkvtlle
will have a good result. The board
has said In effect that Yorkville's Of
FER Is worthy of consideration. though
insufficient to bring about a change.
However, the fact that the proposition
came from Yorkville will call attention
to the college and will cause the peo-
pie Of the synod to look upon the IN
| stitution as an asset rather than
| suppliant for charity. The action Of
the board means that the college will
be conducted without change for the
| next scholastic year, and an effort will
be made to have 1876 men enrolled
when work is resumed on the 10th Of
September. But there are forces
working which subsequently may
mean the entire reorganization Of the
school within the synod. Perhaps At
Ianta's efforts to secure the seminary
have had something to do with II, but
at any rate the spirit of unrest Is In
the air and Ii may be that the whole
mater will result IN coalition Of
'orcos that will give to South Carolina
4 Presbyterian university" W
