OLD SUIT IN NEW FORM.
Land Owners on Seneca River VIII
Sue Clemson Trustees.
tAnderson Mail, 1sth.)

1t will be remembered that some
time ago suit was institIt d against
the trustees of Clemson College by
DR., John Hopkins and 9TH trs, of SEN
eca, for alleged damages 20 their bot
tom lands on Seneca river by the
dixie built on the college farm. 1t is
claimed that the dixie caused the river
to overflow and damage the bottom
lands on the river below the college
farm.
When the DR.. Hopkins case was
called in the court 1t was thrown out
on the ground that the college trus-
tees are agents Of the State, and it
Is we'll recognized principle Of law
that the State cannot be sued ex-
cept with it's consent. This point
was sustained by the State Supreme
Court. t
A bill was then introduced in the
Legislature granting permission to
bring th"se suits, but the hill was
killed.
Col. r. T. Jaynes, Of Walhalla, is
the attorney for the land owners who
claim to have suffered because of the
dixie. Col. Jaynes, who was in An
derson to-day, stated that the DR..
Hopkins case will be carried to the
United States Supreme Court. In
the meantime another move Is TO be
made, which will be watched with a
good deal of interest.
The land owners, instead of wait
ing on the outcome of the DR.. Hop
kins case, have Instructed Col.
Jaynes to bring suit against the
Clemson trustees in their individual
capacities. The idea seems to be
that If the trustees cannot be sued as
agents Of the State, they may be
held to account for their alleged
wrong doing in the dixie matter in a
personal capacity. ,#

tary Loeb and Secretary OF war
Wright to the contrary notwithstand-

another statement through Acting Sec

the previous declaration. But he let
Secretary Wright down a little easier

Mr.. Allison entered the senate

AS a iexislato- Mr.. Allison gave

He has also given especial attention
to all the revisions OF the tariff since
that OF 1888 and to all the financial
legislation, including the countries
dealing with silver and tho resump-

regarded as a conservative on these

Both by many senators and many
