THE INCREA SE OF CRIME.
"An OcOncc Woman" Criticiscs The
Courier and DeplOres Moral Status

Editor Keowee Courier: / regret
sincerely that crime is increasing in
Oconee. The coming court Will call
for men who possess opinion, and
will; men of honor, men who will
not lie;" men who can rise "above
the fog in public duty and private
thinking" and speak out for God and
our country.
The press is mighty-far more SO
than the sword. What we put i'm our
papers and our children read will be
impressed on their minds, and they
will act by those Impressions in COM
ing years. A time has come when
men think that to take their own
lives when dark hours in business
come Is doing an honorable act. I
heard a young man say, at have
read so much Of crime I want to do
such deeds"
Gentlemen, have admired your

How to Break Clemson Will.

(Anderson ntellingencer, 11th.)
Col. J. p. Carey, Of Pickens, one of
the best constitutional lawyers in
the House of Representatives, and
one of it's most forceful speakers and
influential members, was in Colum-
bia Tuesday on legal business, and in
answer to "A question about the Glenn
son controversy, said the legal way
is open to the breaking of the Glenn
son will so as to give the State con-
troll of the college.
One simple way, ,Ie pointed out,
would be to have the Legislature
change the name of the college, which
would violate the condition Of the
bequest, which would revert to the
heirs and open the way. The State
could then buy out the interest of
the Clemson heirs and take over the
control of the college.
But / don't want to get mixed up
in this fuss" said Col. Carey, who is
member of the asylum investiga-
tion commission. 81 have got enough
commission work to last me a long
while. ! don't want to be a member
Of any commission to investigate the
feasibility Of buying out the Glenn
son heirs"

TILLMAN FEELING GOOD.
Talks to Andersopians About Trou-
BILE at Clemson College.
(Anderson Mail, 10th. }

Senator b. Z. Tillman passed
through the city yesterday afternoon
OF his way to his home at Trenton,
from Clemson, where he had been at
ending the college commencement.
senator Tillman did not remain in
the city long, his train stopping only
few minutes, but during that time
he met several of his friends at the
Union station.
Senator Gilman is looking we'll,
all traces of his illness of year ago
having completely disappeared. He
left the train to buy mileage book
at the Union station, and moved
about with all of his old-time agility.
There was nothing in his appearance
or manner to indicate that he had
ever been ill day in his life 'R
One of his friends asked him about
his votes on the tariff schedule in
the Senate. I'VE do not understand
it," said his friend, "and the people
are wanting an explanation"
That's all right" replied Senator
Tillman. 81 haven't time to go into
an explanation now, but an explana-
tion will come in due time, and 1t
will be satisfying to the last degree"
He laughed at the idea that anybody
should think he had been untrue to
his principles.
While talking to friend waiting
| for the train to move off, Senator
Tillman noticed little boy standing
near by. ''Is that your boy?" he
asked his friend. ?nd on receiving an
Affirmative reply, he said, Come
here, boy, and tell me howdy" He
patted the boy, lad of seven or
eight years, on the head, and con-
tinued, 81 suppose that in few more
years you will be going to Clemson.

ticians break up the college in the
meantime. But they won't do that,
and We'll be with 'em when they
try it."

Was Barely Saved from Lynching.
Aiken, June 10.-The sheriff OF
this county has brought to jail here
Edgar Miles, a negro charged with
criminal assault on a 9-year-old col
ored girl. The sheriff secured pos
session of the negro just in time to
save him from lynching at the hands
of infuriated members Of his own
race, who were bent on taking sum-
mary vengeance on the brute. The
assault occurred, 1t is alleged, last
Wednesday, in Giddy Swamp town
ship, but was not reported, because,
1t is said, Miles threatened the girl
and her mother. Finally the mother
slipped away and told of the assault,
and the feeling among the negroes
was aroused to high pitch.
