Clemson College, Dec. ,, 1907.
Editor Greenyille Daily News.
Dear Sir:-1 notice that you have
an article in today's paper in regard
10 the recent trouble at Clemson.
Please permit ME to MAKE few cor
rections. Your article saws ;hat
Cadet Howard CLARK, of Florence,
was seriously haZed about two weeks
ago, that young Clark was removed
from the college by his father soon
after the occurrence, that three of
the ringleaders were suspended, and
that the men suspended came from
Florence and Orangeourg counties
In the first place, the affair hap
pened not two weeks ago, but Oh
Thanksgiving day. The affair could
haIdly be called hazing because
Clark was an old boy, this being MS
second year, and had 4 perfect right
to defend himself. The thrashing
he received was given him by some
student or students who thought
that he deserved it. Clark was not
removed from the college bv his
father, but obtalued permission tc
go hore by telling President Nell
that he had received telegram
notifying him to ccme home at once.
This statement was utterly false.
AS to the three socalled ringleaders
who were dismissed, one of the boys
was dismissed three days before the
affair occurred, and was not at the
college at the time of the trouble.
The orders regarding his dismissal
happened to be published at this
time. The second cadet was dis.
missed for having over 67 dement's,
and was in no way connected with
the affair. The third cadet who
may have been connected with the
affair, was dismissed for another
charge altogether. These three
students were not from Florence,

Editor County RECORD

Editor COUNTY hECORD:-
We notice in the issue of December
17of your paper an article denying the
so-called recent trouble at Clemson.
We also notice your criticism of the
article in which you said that the
report seemed to indicate that the
germ of lnsubordination had not
been entirely eradicated from the
institution: and also that the cor
respondents denial would have
been more forcible had he stated
definitely the circumstances con-
nected with the incident. You also
said that you had never seen 1t con-
tradicted, and there must be some
foundation in fact, coming as it did.
We wish to make a truthful ezpla-
nation and forcible and impartial
denial by referring you to an article
published in the Greenville Daily
SNews herewith enclosed. We wish
to add that Howard Clark, from
Florence county, South Carolina,
has not until yet returned to Glenn
son College. We may summarize
by saying that the whole report is
absolutely false and that the germ
of insubordination and lawlessness
has long ago been eradicated form
the corps of cadets of Clemson
College.

UNUSUAL
ATTRACTION

1t would be difficult to conceive a
greater pleasure than to have Messrs.
Bonnie and Burton-Holmes on the
same stage at the same time. Mr.
Burton-Holmes is to be at the Opera
House on Thursday night to tell the
people i'm the audience what the pic
lures are and to say something Of his
impressions of Hawaii.
He is a great traveller and one who
learns as he goes. His "Trayelogues"
are in the homes Of many thousand
citizens I'm the United States and the
demand for the books is growing in
foreign countries. Mr. Burton-Holmes
has delighted audiences everywhere
with his descriptions. He will not lee
ture Thursday night but his remarks
will so nearly approach the definition
of a lecture that the public VIII re-
ceive a lot for its money. What few
seats were left this morning will no
doubt be bought by those who had Civ
'en up the idea of going on account OF
the counter attraction at Central Uni
on, but as that has been postponed
it is a question if there will be any
left for sale tomorrow.

RAILWAY SITUATION
SERIOUS IN JAPAN
PURCHASER OF PRIVATE LINES
BY GOVERNMENT TO COST $780,
100000.

TOXIC, Feb. 22.-One of the con-
ditions under which the present Sal
onji Ministry succeeded the late Kat
sura administration, at the close of
the great war with Russia, was that
it should carry into effect the policy
of railway naturalization formulated
under the Katsura regime. The pledge
thus given was duly fulfilled and the
undertaking constitutes at present not
the least of the many difficult tinan-
cial and economic problems with
which the rulers of Japan are con-
fronted as the result-direct or in
direct-of the war.
The naturalization plan was that
the Government purchase II private
lines at an estimated cost of S221,-
COO, 900. The more important of these
lines were the Nippon Railway, asses
sed at SOS ,26S, 23O; the Sanyo Railway,
$3S, 1924, 800; the Kwansai Railway,
1854 ,030 and the Hokkaido Rail
way, $15,O35,254, the remaining rail-
roads ranging in price from 100000
to $5,OO0,OOO. In lieu Of cash the Gov
eminent decided to pay for these pro-
perties in national bonds at face va
lue, within five years, interest on the
railway shares being paid by the Gov
eminent in the interim. The proposal
| passed the Diet.
Since adoption of the scheme sew
eral of the estimates have had to be
revised, and the amount in bonds now
to be appropriated is believed to be
| $25O,OOO,OOO.
Opponents Of the policy of railway
naturalization, including many pro
minent financiers, ascribe thereto
much of the economic depression OF
the country.
Government control has not thus
far worked to the bettermept of trans
portation. The congestion Of goods
at stations is unprecedented, and on
ly few weeks ago an important for
eign firm complained that it took sew
eral weeks to forward consignments
by land or water, from Osaka to To
kio. a distance of 300 miles. In de
Tense. the authorities declare that thu
summer floods and storms destroyed
many miles of track and disorgan
lied the work of the Railway Bureau
and that in due course all these dc
. fects will be remedled,

respects the most remarkable organl-
cation in the world 1t has Travelled
in Australia, South Africa, India, Chi

a record of which no other opera COM
pany has ever attained. The company
is composed of wonderful children,
who are the equals OF professionals in
everything but size. Their perform
ances are among the cleverest opera

remarkable youngsters were schooled
in Melbourne, Australia, in an Acade-
my especially equipped to fit them 1or
their operate careers. From the many
candidates for positions in the COM
pany, the management carefully Sc
lects the best material and these chill
dren are then so thoroughly trained
that their performances are nothing
less than phenomenal. In no respect
can the youngsters be improved on in
their Interpretation or lines and vocal
work. The company will open here in

WASHINGTON, February 25.-La
Toilette is making Roadway as a presi-
Dental candidate in supposed Taft ter
ritory. This has been brought out
from several sources. 1t was admitted
today by two of the cal lers at the White
House-Senator McCumber and Repre-
sentative Gronna Of North Dakota
They talked with the President some
time on subjects they did not desire 70
discuss. When asked as to the La
Toilette movement i'm their state they
admitted that the Wisconsin senator
has many friends there and that these
friends are PROSECUTING at a rapid
rate, arranging organizations and get
| ting ready to compete for delegates in
a state nearly everybody has hereto
fore accredited to the Ohioan. They
do not believe Taft will lose the dele
gates however. Senator La Toilette
has campaigned in North Dakota, and
his radical views as to public questions
are declared to suit the tastes of a
| good many thousands OF citizens who
fear that Secretary Taft is too conser-
vative despite his affiliations with the
! Roosevelt administration and the Pre-
sidents Endorsements.
What is true in North Dakota is said
to be true in some of the other western
states, where the La Toilette people
! receive encouragement from the ele-
ments opposed to Taft, but too
weak to do anything on their own ac-
, counts. The fact that Senator La
Toilette is not bearing the handicap
of a reactionary and is supposed to
be unobjectionauIe as republican can
didate, except for geographical location
adds delicate embarrassment to the la
bors of the Taft people. They do not
dare to do anything that will arouse
the enmity of the La Toilette supper
tiers. They would like to have things
so that the La Toilette vote will come
to them after the first two or three bal
lots. At the same time they do not
care to lose votes, and it is necessary
for them to become aggressive to save
themselves. They claim that Secre'
tary Taft has already conceded toe
much in not going into territory OF
the favorite sons, and that they can

RUSSIA ORDERS
FLOUR FOR ARMY
PUGET SOUND MILLS WILL FUR
NISH EIGHTY THOUSAND BAR
RELS OF FLOUR.

PORTLAND, Ore, Feb. 1S.-Russia
has ordered 10000 barrels of -four
from the Portland Milling Company Of
this city for rush delivery at Vladiyo-
stok Siberia. The order comes as a
direct result of the menace of war
with Turkey ON the Caucasian frontier.
Thirty thousand barrels of -four
have been ordered for rush delivery to
Vladivostok from milers on the Sound
ports This is the first large order
that has been received from that port
by local exports since the close of the
Japanese war. The order was placed
by a well-Rnown Russian provision
firm which handles a large amount OF
business for the Cars government.
So insistent We're the purchasers for
quick delivery that arrangements were
at once made with the agents Of the
big German steamer Numantia to car
| ry the cargo to Vladivostok when she
sails on March Is. This is the first
time that the Numantia included the
northern ports in its route, and the
ships officers make no secret of the
fact that it was only ordered after
strong inducements had been PLACED
by the exporters. The order is one 81
the largest received on the Pacific
coast, and the Portland mills will rur
their full capacity until the entire or
der is ground. The size of the order
caused an advance of one cent a bushe
