WINTHROP GIRLS AND CHRIST.
MAS.

So far as our observation ex-
tends, the newspapers OF the
state, that have expressed any
opinion at all on the 'hject,
approve the recent action Of the
trustees of Winthrop College in
refusing to allow the students of
that institution to have Christ
mas holiday.
We see no reason why the
girls should be Disseminated
against. The Students of other
state institutions are gwen a
few days holiday Chris mas
why not those of Winthrop also ?
If it is good thing for Clemson
and South Carolina College boys
to spend Christmas at home,
why shouldn't it be equally as
good for the Winthrop girls? II
any distinction is to be made at
all it should be In favor of the
girls, who are not so likely to be
"done up" or "knocked out, by
the dissipations of yule-tide and
thereby untitled for school work
on their return to college.
Judging by the experience OF
the past, lot of the Winthrop
girls will go home Christmas
anyway. BY a strange coinci-
dence sickness develops in the
homes of many of the students
about "Christmas time", and in
consequence urgent letters and
kilograms are rushed to Rock
Hill, asking the college author
tiles to permit the girls to "come
home". But the girls and their
parents should not be forced to
resort to such subterfuges.

LIBRARY DAY IN THE PUBLIC
SCHOOLS

Next Friday, the 18th instant
is the day that State Superin
tendent of Education Martin has
designated as Library Day in
the public schools. That it should
be generally observed goes with.
out saying. 1t is to be hoped
therefore, that teachers, patrons
and pupils will heartily cooperate
and make the day one of marked
success.
No school should be without a
library, and there is no excuse
for a public school in South
Carolina being without one in
view of the generous offer made
by the state to aid in the es.
tablishment of libraries. All a
school has to do is to raise ten
dollars in order to secure a forty-
dollar-library. While a number
OF schools in Lancaster county
have already taken advantage of
the states proposition, there are
many others have not done so.
In view of the importance of
this matter we republish Super
intendent Martins letter in re-
lation to libraries in the schools.

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

The readers of The News will
6nd in today's paper an excel
Pent epitome Of President Roose
Velt's annual message to Con-
gress. It's perusal Will be far
more satisfactory than undertak-
fng to wade through the docu-
ment itself, which is said to be
the lengthiest message ever sent
10 our national lawmakers by any
President OF the United States.
It is estimated that there are
thirty thousand words in the
message, filling about twenty
I've columns of the daily paper
Dg average size.
Probably the most remarkable
feature about the message is its
conservatism. There is nothing
sensational about it, no radical
recommendations or suggestions,
not even evidence of the fiery
strenuosity that usually character
ICES the public utterances of the
Rough Rider President.
AS was to be expected, much
space is devoted to the presi-
Sent's latest hobby, railroad nate
regulation. But even upon this
sGbject he advances nothing new
nothing that he has not already
said time and again. He does
not advise extreme legislation
2othing like the making of rates
Tor the railroads, but simply the
regulation by the government Of
the rates as made by the railroads
themselves. His views are so
moderate that even the most
Jealous defender of corporate in
forests in Congress will have but
little excuse for opposing the
presidents recommendations.

REMOVE BATTLE FLAGsIMAY HAVE NO STANDING
PETITIONERS FOR INJUNCTION
AGAINST scHRAPs' LICENSE AL
LEGGED TO HAVE NO SPECIAL IN
TEREST,

Charles R. Schrap's fight to secure a
liquor license for his Sixth street res
taurant is not over yet. There proba-
bly, will be no decision on the motion
of Klein & Pauntz for temporary in
junction to prevent the city officials
from issuing the license voted by the
council, but the whole case will be ar
gued and decided on demurrers to be in
terposed to the amended complaint.
Klein & Pauntz, competitive saloon
proprletors, began suit for a permanent
! injunction on the ground that in grant
ing license to Schraps the council
was violating the law limiting the num-
Der OF saloons to six in block facing
the saloon limits. The city and Mr..
Schraps contend that the law is uncon-
stitutional. The question was argued
before Judge John Day Smith.
The defendants demurred that the
complaint did not state cause Of ac-
tion, principally in that the plaintiffs
were not specially injured, their injury
being no different in quality from that
sustained by other Sixth street saloon
keepers. An amended complaint was
filed. Demurrers to this will be filed
and arguments thereon will be heard
before Judge Smith at an early date.
This will open up the whole case and
permit of a decision upon the standing
of the plaintiffs as well as upon the con
stitutionality of the law. There is .
| possibility that no one can be fonu6
who will be able to prevent the authori
ties from ignoring the law and Mr.
Schraps from enjoying the emoluments
from an apparently illegal license.

PAUR TRIUMPHS WITH
PITISBURG ORCHESTRA

The tour Of the Pittsburg orchestra,
which began late in April, is proving a
genuine triumph and great tribute
to the reputation of Emil Paur, it's new
director. The Minneapolis date is May
II at the Auditorium, and this concert
will close the musical season.
In a single season the splendid genius
of Paur has transformed the orchestra.
The organization has long been made
up of fine material and afforded the
necessary conditions for frst-class work,
but their best has not been demanded
from the men. Paur has worked the Or
chestra hard, but the result has been so
artistic that pride in their work has
compensated the men for the rigors of
Paur's demands. AS Indicative of his
discipline, he has required the men to
stand for rehearsals as a preventive of
lazy, careless work. On the other hand
Mr.. Paur is very considerate wherever
Starring the men does not hurt their
work. For this reason he refuses tc
play with choral societies on his tour
as this would necessitate extra rehear
sails, and he prefers to husband all OF
the orchestra strength for the concert
programs. For this reason he EMPLOYS
as soloists the great soprano, Nine
| Gadski.
The seat sale will open next Friday
morning at the metropolitan Music
| store.
