OF the two lower classes have already sent to
the commandaut applications for honorable
discharges and II Is very probable that the
requests will be granted H. The idea OF all the
cadets leaving In sympathy with the dis
missed Juniors and to keep the com pact is
going to pieces and there Will hardly be any
wholesale departure on the part OF the
cadets.

Further Trouble at Clemson.

The following comments on the rec Mt
disturbance at Clemson College are the ex.
pressions Of the editor, without In the least
involving tho opinion o the owners VI the
paper.
Ifthere is any apparent vagueness In the
article in placing the responsibility for dis
turbsnces between the Board Of Trustees and
the Faculty or Discipline Committee, none Is
intended. 1t is believed that the Board has
done Its duty as 1t has seen 1t. and the highest
regard personally is entertained for the abil-
ity and integrity of the men who compose 1t.
AS we understand, the facts are substanti-
ally these.
The authorities. whoever hey may be,
warned" the boys against performing any
"April fool" tricks, with an implied threat OF
punishment for disregard of the "warning."
The boys, as might have been expected up-
der the circumstances, did not restrain them
selves. They absented themselves from class
on april Foor' day. For In outing they
spent the day in Pendleton, a short way
of.
The discipline committee. composed of the
President, the Commandant, and the heads
OF departments. did not even attempt TO ap-
portion the blame In a case where IL Ia impos.
sible that all the blame should be on one
side.
Without taking into consideration any
OF the causes hat led up to the dis
obedience TO college laws, the boys were
dismissed from the college, and that dis
missal is presumed to prevent any OF the
boys so dismissed from entering the classes
nf nthar COLLAGE The axtrema napaIfy nj
college discipline was administered
The college laws provide no greater pun
ishment for kicking the president In the
back, or knocking him In the head with an
axe, than was Inflicted because OF the boys
absence from college one day. If the boys
had kicked the trustees over the trnce and
out into the public road the college could not
have Inflicted greater punishment. OfcCurse
the boys in this latter Instance would have
been accountable to the State laws. but the
college laws neglected to nuke provision
against boys kicking the professors and trus.
tees out into the road.
That there is to our mind incompetency or
inefticlency among the authorities at Cl:m-
son, the disturbance clearly proves.
The proof was furnished a year ago, but the
trustees took no note OF T., and dismissed
neither the president nor any professor.
The fact that the Faculty warned" the
boys is proof conclusive to our mind, that the
person or persons responsible for the warn
ing' should resign, or II he or they do not
resign, the duty Of the trustees is plain.
1t may be said to be a SANDER on the young
men of the State to charge that the boys Of
Clemson are unruly. They are AS good young
men as any in the State; and with the proper
men In charge OF them and the Institution,
they will be as orderly and as circumspect as
are the boys In other colleges where the
numbers far exceed the numbers in Glenn
son.

Judge Weaver Advises Jurors That if ts Wfthin Their Province to Probe Unto Crimes
 During Strike

Birmingham. Nov. 27.--tSpecial)- fersistent reports that the grand jury mas been asked to indict certain per sons arrested during the coal miners strike and whose cases have been mol pressed. were confirmed in the Grim self
 The inquisitors filed into the court room and consulted with Judge Samuel l.. Weaver as to whether they had the right to hear evidence or even con- sider returning d true bill against a man whose case had been mol pressed. Judge Weaver informed the inquisi. tors they had a right to find an in- dictment or return mo bill" in any ease that might be brought before them
 The inquisitors then explained that had been furnished them concerning certain cases that had been mol pressed and they wanted eniight- enment.
 Prior to thu public inquiry the ru- nor was prevalent that deputy sher- ffs did not like the idea of cases be- ing thrown out where they were re- sponsible for the warrants without be. ing heard. It Is said the deputies went through all sorts of experiences dur ing the strike and that frequently they made arrests for unlawful assemblies. assaults and other things upon their personal knowledge. They are of the opinion that some of the worst cases should be tried.
 After the general order for dismiss- ing all the cases was made 1t is un- derstood that certain information was furnished the grand jury that had in view the indictment of some of those whose cases had been mol pressed.

Mir. Weaver, the Proprietor, Writes that
 a Mistake Has Been Made.

 Mir. Weaver, the proprietor of the saloon located on the disputed territory between Coffee and Covington County. of which something was published in The Advertiser, has written to say that an injustice was done him when it was stated that no license was re- quired of him, or paid by him. On the contrary, he says, the saloon has coun- ty, State and United States license. Ee writes as follows:
 Andalusia, Nov. 2s. 1908. The Advertiser:
 An article in The Advertiser of Nov. B. purporting to describe a saloon, said to be located on territory in dis pute between Coffee and Covington County, does me, as proprietor of the saloon, an injustice. It was stated in the article that the saloon was located there to avoid the payment of county license. and in this an injustice is done me- We have every necessary le- gal license-county, State and United States.
 I feel sure that you will publish this and correct the mistake.

EYE TROUBLES
