WANTS FURTHER AUTHORITY
Richards Asks That Status of Elec-
tive Trustee be Defined.

Columbia, Feb. 16.--Major John G.
Richards, Jr., railroad commissioner
and also an elective trustee of Glenn
son college, has by Letter urged Gov
ernor Blease to ask that proceedings
be provided for looking to a det2rmi-
nation, by the courts, of the question
whether elective trustees of State in
stitutions of higher education may hold
other public positions without violat-
ing the constitution.
The general assembly has directed
the attorney general to seek a court
ruling on the status of Clemson life
trustees holding public Offices. Major
Richards says that an opinion by the
judiciary committees of the legislature
cannot be regarded as final and con-
elusive adjudicition of the constitu-
tional' question raised by the gover-
nors 1.-TWO Office" message.
Mr.. Richards raises important ques-
tions in his letter, which, in part, are
as follows; -,-,
II was elected Upon the board Of
trustees of Clemson college Without
being candidate for that position and
by practically the unanimous vote of
the general assembly. I was at that
time a member of the legislature and
served two years as a member of that
body, while a member of the Clemson
board. The question, involving the
same issues as raised by your mes
sage, was submitted 10 the legislature
by resolution during the session of
1909 or 1910 The judiciary committee
of that body, as | recall it, rendered
an opinion that the holding of trus-
teeship of a State college or school
while serving in anoher government
tai capacity, was no. a violation OF
the constitution, and there the matter
rested. l have never felt, nor do
feel now, that I am violating the law
of the State in holding the two posi-
tions. l will admit that the authori-
ties are very much divided upon this
question, some holding that a trustee
shin of a State college or school is an
office, as contemplated by the constitu-
ton, and others that it is not. The
question, therefore, l.. siiil an open
one and will remG':1 so until finally
settled by the proper authorities,
namely, the courts of the State.
The decision of this subcommittee
is merely an opinion and may or may
not be correct. It has no binding ef-
feet and does not settle the question.
I do not wish to in any way violate
the laws Oh the State, nor will DO
so when convinced that any course |
may BE- pursuing is IN violation OF It's
teaching, but, as.I see it, my reslgna-
ton from the Clemson board will in
no way determine the issue involved.
This question is faA--eacning IN et-
feet and involves every trustee of ev-
2rv school and college in the State,
who may be holding ANY position with
the governments and should be settled

To Prevent Edges of
Rug from Curling

When sewing strips Of carpet to-
gether to form rugs, the housewife
Is often troubled with the edges of
the finished rug, which seem bound
to turn up. If an old suspender or a
piece of rubber, slightly stretched, be
sewed underneath. this trouble will
be prevented.
Rag carpet, ingram, brussels and
administer may be sewed on the ma
chine if care is taken to support the
weight on each side 80 that the car
pet does not draw the needle to one
side, thus making it break by strik-
ing the presser foot Of the machine.

Ostrich Bods May Be
Cleaned With Starch

When a white ostrich feather boa
becomes soiled it would seem hope
less task to try to clean it. But a
woman who was the proud possessor
of lovely pure white boa says that
she cleaned it with ordinary starch.
She made a cold starch, adding a lit
tie blue, so that the frouds would
not become yellow.
The starch does not stiffen the
fronds but merely dries in the form Of
cake of paste, which when hard

WOMEN JURORS.
CNew York Times).

J.
 The invasion of the jury box Dy women has begun in earnest in the state Of Washington, and win be watched by the rest of the country with great interest Our ancestors, in their blindness, fancied that the revelations of the law courts were sometimes unfit for the ears of the gentler sex. But the women of Washington have repudiated the .gentlersex idea, and countless wo- men of other states are trying to do likewise. Women have for years defied the old conventions, and the proprieties, too, and thronged court rooms in which evidence really un- fit for any ears had 10 be endured by judges, lawyers and jurors, and they have seemed to enjoy it, That the gift of logic was withheld from woman has been frequently asserted, though never proved, but the logic of male jurors in the state of Wash ing.on has not been nouceabIy strong.
 There is no privilege the men would more willingly resign to the wor en than jury duty. So long as the women of Washington seek for it with the ayidity they now display, they will get their full share. The report that in the first experiment single woman hung up" the jury IS not unlikely. It is so likely, in- deed, that the report is probably mere guess. But one stupid or ob stinate man will often keep a jury in conference many hours. Stupid fly and obsinacy are not denote meHts of sex.
 Clear-headed, sounder-minded jur. ors are needed everywhere. There are many cases in which a jury of women might be found quicker in judgment and fairer than a jury of men. Women are susceptible Co sentimental argument, of course. but too many male jurors are at fault in this respect. WashingtOn's s women jurors may be influential in reforming the trial courts. We doubt it, but we are willing to wait until the new system has had a fair trial
