Impressions Of a Williamsburg Student
Side Lights on College Life.

Columbia, November 3d. Mr.
Editor, since being at Carolina L
have often wondered if the people OF
"Old Williamsburg" would like to
hear from the school situated at the
capital of Soath Carolina, SO l have
decided to write.
Upon arriving at the college l was
very much impressed by the primi-
tive and antique appearance of the
college walls and buildings. The old
brick wall and the gray buildings
(which have stood for many years"
reminded me of the days when no.
BILE men of South Carolina such as
McDuffie, Sims, Hampton and 9TH
ers attended this famous old instl-
tuition.
| also was much interested in the
old library containing over 10000
volumes and various antique relics,
and began to realize that this in
deed was the greatest institution IN
the State. Anyone can see that the
boys of Carolina are working as
hard now as when such illustrious
men left her classic walls.
All the boys are looking forward
to the coming holidays with a great
deal of pleasure, but they are look
ing toward to the February 'exams"
with quite a different feeling. We
have about 300 students this year,all
working for the ultimate good of the
University and themselves. Every
thing here is in very prosperous
condition and we have more new
men this year than We have had for
some years. The handsome admin
istratiSe building which is beng
erected is nearing completion and
will add greatly to the appearance
of the campus.
We have flourishlng Young

very anxious to have students

union TEACHERS "AT HOME
To Their Friends on Friday Alter
Thanksgiving.

Rome, November 30:-On Friday
evening, the 9th of November, ye
scribe enjoyed the pleasure of being
"among those present" at a recep-
tion given by the faculty of Union
High school at the home of MIR
Maundy Clyde, where the entire
corps of instructors of
five ladies and one gentleman
boards.
After the guests had all assembled
the diversion of the evening, "pro-
gressive A." commenced and the
moments glided swiftly on with the
fascination of the game enhanced by
bright faces, wholesome mirth and
care. free laughter. Historic old
Rome-our Williamsburg Rome
does not need to hark back to the
glories of the past, to feed the fancy
with the bitter food of faded splen-
dor, but this thriving community, a
center of culture and refinement
whose hospltable people are to the
manor born in the way of entertain
ing, lives in the virile present, and
no one who visits there fails to be
impressed with the signs of material
enterprise on every hand visible and
the spirit of progress in intellectual
culture, of which the splendid school
building-the pride of the commit
nity-is the outward and visible to-
ken.
But to return to the entertainment.
After several hours of delightful So
cial intercourse, the guests were in
vited to the dining hall, which was a
scene of beauty, subdued by exquis-
ite taste. The color scheme was
green and white, with rare hothouse
exotics effectively arranged.
At the witching hour of midnight
it came to all that "the best of friends
must part and reluctant farewells
were said as soft eyes looked tender
partings beyond the power of words.
And thus the goodly company dis
persed with each cherishing in his
heart as a fragrant memory the
Union teachers "at home"

SOUTHERN COTTON ASSOCIATION.
Tom Watson Thinks Farmers Have
Been BunCOed by HafVie JOrdOn.

love to be humbugged.
An ex.botel clerk, of the name of
Harvie Jordan, pretends to be the
president of an agricultural organi-
zation, and the newspapers of the
land, taking Harvie's word for it,
really seem to believe that the
Sou thern Cotton Association is an
actual. tangible living thing.
AS matter of fact, there was
such an organization few years
ago. Farmers joined it by the thous-
and. But the manufacturers, bank
ers, guano lobbyists, railroad agents,
and bucket shop gamblers Joined it
also-until the molly concern look
ed like a strange gathering of black
bass and white suckers.
Every time HarVie called a rous'
ing convention and brought the
spinner apl grower into closer rela-
tions, his success was brilliant, for,
after the meeting, the black bass
swan off with a bellyful of white
sucker.
In due course, Harvie himself
turned out to be fish of the black
bass variety, and he and Joe Hoad-
ley-a whopping big black bass
lunched together most amicably off
ii innocent suckers.
it came to pass that the farmers
ped out of Harvie's Southern
otton Association, and nothing was
eft in the pond but black bass
"trout," as We untutored Georgians
are accustomed to calling them. 1t
may be that a handful of. manufac-
turers, guano lobbyists, national
bankers and cotton spectators
would respond to the call, were
Haryie to attempt to have conven-
ton of the Southern Cotton Associa-
ton.
But, excepting The faithful Wal
ter Clark of Mississippi, not single
farmer is now an active member of
Harvie's stranded organization-so
| far as we can learn.
In Georgia, Harvie could not
rSlm up a dozen farmers in any
county to follow his lead. In Geor-
gia, the Southern Cotton Association
| is dismal recollection. And so it
| is in every other state-so far as We
can learn.
of course, if Harvie Jordan and
the faithful Walter Clark desire to
have themselves called the Southern
/ Cotton Association, we have no kick
to make. There's no law "agin it, ="
80 far us We know.
But because We have a genuine
respect for Walter Clark. We beg
him to carefully reflect upon two
facts:
First: Harvie Jordan's paper, The
Cotton Journal, in the spring of this
year, published the very sort Of re.
ports about the condition of the
crops that were calculated to help
the Wall street "bears." The Cot
ton Journals reports were logically
followed by low prices.
Second: Haryle Jordan was the
champion of the cotton grower who
wanted better price for his cotton,
yet. during the progress of this
struggle for higher prices, Harvie
Jordan was on the most intimate
terms with, the associate of Joe Hoad-
ley,a notoriousWall street spectators
who was then leading bear raid
against cotton.
In New York, Harvie was Joseph's
guest; in Atlanta, Joseph was Har-
vie's guest; and when HarVie called
his Birmingham convention, Joseph
was one of the wolves that Harvie
invited to meet the sheep.
Can you explain this in such a
way as will clear the skirts Of
Harvie?-We Jefersonian.
