CONCENTRATION BETTER THAN
scATTERATloN.

A few newspapers In North Texas
and a few Legislators Mailing from the
same section are discussing the es'
tablishing OF agricultural and mechan'
ioal colleges In different parts OF the
State. What the increase OF popula.
ton and the development OF the State
may require in the future we will not
undertake to say. but II Is certain
that at present Texas is In no condi.
ton TO add to the number of her
chronological and agricultural insu.
tutions. The amounts available for
salaries and for increasing equipment
are short OF what It should be, and
for this reason the state has lost
the services OF some of It's ablest ed
ucators. II this proposed plan OF mul.
tiplying colleges should be- adopted II
would result In apportioning the
funds by long division with the quo.
tient so small that neither good build
lngs and equipment nor good instruc.
tors could be had. The institution at
College Station is just now entering
upon carer OF prosperity and use
funess far In advance Of the success
II has already attained Besides the
donation from the national govern
ment, the State has invested many
thousands OF dollars In this lnstitu-
ton. The building, the farm the or.
chard, the gardens the workshops
Z and machinery, the horses, cattle,
sheep, hogs and poultry are all
there the result of years of iudicious
management and the wise use of the
limited means available. Better stu,
corps of instructors, every one
OF whom is an eminent specialist In
his line-has been organized. II the
effort to found, other coordinate In
stitutions Is made now the inevitable
result will be arrest of development,
aud instead of one great and famous
college there would be school OF
ill-spawned and poorly nourished
weaklngs that would be a disgrace TO
the state. The Galveston News
strikes square out from the shoulder
thus:
Representative Gaines. who pro
poses to introduce "A bill proyid.
ing for sixteen agricultural and
mechanical colleges in Texas. Is
undoubtedly right in putting a
high estimate upon the value OF
practical training for the young
II may also be true that II will
help much to popularize farming
with the boys to give them oppor-
tunlties near their homes to learn
farming scientifically and make
the tlllng OF the soil more of
pleasure than drudgery, But
such schools could not be prop
crly and effectively conducted
without an exceedingly large eX
pense. and unless We can hop off
some extravaganza whose elmlna-
lion would prove disadyantageous
to the states interests the tax
payers will hardly be able to af-
ford so heavy an investment

We call the attention Of our farm
rrS to The article in this issue on the
subject Of stock raising in South Car
"lina by W. W. Price and ask that
they look at the figures given by the
government. just think of Il little
State like South Carolina sending out
every year &'.000.000 for horses and
mules and trying to raise cotton for
less than cost to pay for them. We
could raise Il great many Of these
horses and mules right here and at
greater profit than we grow cotton.
But this is not all. Not only de we
for horses and mules but we also send
off for the bay and corn TO feed them
This we should and can grow right
here. Not only wonlG it be well for
South Carolina to reduce the acreage
in cotton in order to secure better
prices. hui We should do it for the
purpose Of giving more attention to
stock raising and to the growing Of
corn and hay with which to feed the
stock.
Another matter that should have
the attention Of our farmers is thc
raiSln" OF cattle. It is very diff
cult matter to secure native beef and
most of that that is sold in our mark
cts is Western beef. We believe it
would pay TO raise more beef cattle.
These are matters our farmers should
consider.

""iday, May 8, 1908.

There con be little doubt that a
majority Of the democratic voters Of
South Carolina favor VIM. J. Bryan
for president. That may be because
he is better known than any other
democrat and because he has visited
South Carolina several times and
many of our people have heard him
and have met him and he is fine
character and Il very able man. It is
alright and proper for the county con-
ventions to endorse him for the nomi-
nation and it will be entirely proper
for the State convention to do so but
we do not think it would be wise to
try to bind the delegates to The Ma
tional convention by instructions. Let
fine convention send delegates to Den
Yer in whom the democracy has con-
1idcncc and let them know VINO is the
preference but leave them free to vote
for som other candidate if after they
&c, to the national convention they
are convinced that by the nomina-
tion Of some one else there will be
greater probability Of success for the
ticket in the election.
We do not know aud no one can tell
what conditions may be when the ma
tional convention meets, and We
should not tie the hands Of our dele
gates. Further than by an expression
"f our choice.
Whoever is nominated by the con-
vrnIi"n will receive the vote Of South
Carolina.

Crosses of Honor.

The Drayton Rutherford Chapter.
lo2, U. d. c., Newbcrry, S. c., this,
23th day of February, 1908, begins
the three months advertising rcquir-
Ell tr precede the bestowal Of eros
scs upon the defendants Of Veterans
Rule l. See. 2. The oldest living
lincal defendant Of veterans who have
not received cross may secure it,
provided that notices for three con-
secutive months be published in the
city and county newspapers calling
upon veterans to send in certificates
tor crosses. IF, at the expiration of
three months no veterans have ap-
piled, the bestowal of crosses upon
defendants and widows may begin.
The chapter urges the veterans to
be prompt in sending in their ccrti
icates for two reasons. First of all,
because it is the purpose Of the
chapter to honor every vateraa with
a cross and, second. to give to such
defendants as described in the rule
above, the opportunity to secure their
crosses.

AS you recOllect each battle,
You fought bravciy side by side.
May this meeting give you pleasure
May you each be filled with joy,
May you each be for the present,
As when you were Dixie boy.
And today when Dixie s rendered
by a choir Of voices sweet,
And the good old tune accompanied
BY the tramp of martial feet.
That will bear our grizzled heroes,
10 the Confederate daughters care
Where they nave Il Cross Of Honor,
Made for each old "Vet.' to wear.
1t is not n silver medal,
That we hand to you today;
Nor cross of gold to dangle
There beneath your locks of gray
But strong and simple pendant,
Made Of bronze that will relate,
TO the coming generations,
How you fought to shield your
State.
Take it then and pin it proudly,
There upon your hcavin" breast,
And remember that IS given
AS love and thanks bequest.
And as relentless time flies onward,
And your ranks grow very thin,
May your little Cross Of Honor
Show where every man has been.

Another Veteran Answers the Last
Roll Call.

The many friends Of Jacob Melvin
Hartman will be grievcd to know that
he has gone to his last roll call.
Mr.. Hartman, "Uncle Mcll' as he
WAS called by those who knew him
we'll, died at the home Of his daugh-
ter, Mrs. Malca Mullig,,s, in Colum-
bia at 9 o'clock Sunday morning, af-
ter IN illness OF several weeks Of
heart disease. The end was sudden.
though not altogether unexpected.
"Unclc Mell' was one Of the few
Veterans Of the Civil War, remaining
with us. and belonged to that grand
regiment which reflected SO much
glory upon itself and upon the State
which gave 1.-THE Bird Regiment S.
&. Y. Volunteers. Company C-serv-
ing four years under General Lee,
and which regiment We are told gave
the immortal Stoncwall' jackson
his name.
Mr.. Hartman lived to the good old
ape Of - years. 5 months and II
days. lie was one of the oldest mem
btrS Of Mt. Pilgrim Lutheran church,
where his remains were laid to await
the last buglc call.
Mr.. Hartman was preceded into
the great beyond by his wife and six
children. and he leaves behind him
to mourn his departure one brother,
three sisters, two daughters and
scores of grandchildren and friends.
"Unccl Mcll' who faced death with
Ice, had no fear Of death when he
was called away.
He loved the sunny Southland as
only Veteran who served through
the entire war can, and was looking
Forward 10 tle time when ne conld go

no pain or sorrow or fN"r Of parting
We all hope to be able to meet

beautiful home over there. where
there are no wars or parting, forever,
and we all say:
