Students of Wards High School.
Special to The State.
Wards, March 17.-Col. j. III. Whar-
ton, chairman of the railroad commits
sion, delivered lecture last night on
education to the students of the high
school and the public generally. Col.
Wharton took for his subject STANDARD
of a Man, and pointed his hearers, the
young men. to the character and life of
Gen. Wade Hampton, and, in substance,
said, "Go thou and do likewise" and
impressed on them that one act of their
lives would or might make them heroes
or blight them forever. He scored the
cigarette and intemperance, and no
doubt his lecture will long be remem-
bered by the students of Wards high
school. Throughout his lecture of one
hour and half he had the closest at
tention, and Col. Wharton remarked
that he never had more attentive
audience. Col. Wharton has many
friends. here who are always glad to
have him.

TRUSTEES HOLD
FIRST MEETING
State Industrial School
Commission Organized.
HEYWARD PRESIDENT.
Opportunity Will be Given for All Towns
and Localities to Submit Bids for
the RefOrmatOry.

DIR. w. C. Irby. the Laurens member
of the board of trustees of the South
Carolina Industrial School, an institu-
ton to be established in the State un-
der the provisions of an act of the last
legislature, attended the first meeting
of the board which was held in Columbia
last week. The board was organized
with Gov. Hayward as President; Judge
A. C. Haskill, Vice President; DIR. j. l..
Mann of Florence, Secretary; DR.. ID d.
Wallace of Spartanburg, Treasurer.
The board found several propositions
before it of very favorable nature,
been by any means full or general un-
derstanding by the public of the extent
and work contemplated by the legislature
in the establishment and growth of the
South Carolina Industrial school, it was
thought best not to come to any decision
at this time. The situation was can
vassed in general way and the requi-
sites of site discussed, such as climate,
moral surroundings, grounds and so
forth. 1t was the unanimous opinion
that the matter should be given public
ity through the press so as to allow am
pie opportunity to any other towns that
might desire to make propositions to
formulate and submit them. The Sec
retary. was instructed to prepare state
ment for the press within the next few
days stating the nature of the under
taking and inviting offers from different
localities. One of the most interesting
offers so far is large and valuable
piece of land by public spirited gentle
man in one of the most prosperous sec
tions of the State.
The board adjourned to meet again in
Columbia, April II.

Sinking Fund Loans.

The State sinking fund commission
is now placing between $500, 900 and
$780, in loans with the various
counties of the State. This money is
placed with the counties at per cent
but the State requires first lien on
the taxes to be collected. The only
way a renewal can be had is by the
actual payment of the previous year s
paper.
Every county has now settled its OBJ
legation and the loans for the present
year are now being placed.
The State finds this the best way of
placing its. surplus so as to get the
largest dividend.

A deep-laid plot has been unearthed
in Minneapolis wherein it is alleged
that Governor Johns henchmen in
duced sixty-two foreigners to perjure
themselves in order to secure second
citizenship papers and thus be entitled
to vote at the coming election. Sixty
two warrants have been issued by the
federal authorities for the arrest of
the aliens, most of whom are Italians,

other great causes in which the mass

ure OF their. exactions and expressions
the great trusts are being gradually
driven to the wall and compelled to
disclose their unlawful and powerful
secretso The constituencies and in.
.defensible way in which railroad re-
bates have been ananipulatedhas been
exposed by the press, while the un.
covering of the almost phenomenal
rottenness of the great insurance com.
panies has been primarily its work.
No other power has so stirred public
opinion, aroused the people to de-
mand square deal and forced public
and private plunderers, and grafters
to disgorge and seek we'll earned Sc
clusion. It is a permanent revolution,
not an ephemeral victory, and the
masses have begun to appreciate its
value and import. With the power OF
a conscientious newspaper press be-

will be the party nominee in 1908. He
has made corruption and graft, very
uncomfortable wherever found,
whether in the party or out of it. No
president ever held loftier ideals or
acted up to them more consistently.
No administration ever surpassed his
in diplomacy. His big stick, is a

Reports from the Canadian plains

Reports from the Canadian plains

while perhaps more productive than
the alkali lands of the Dakotas, are
