PRAISES WORK AT CLEMSON.
Hon. p. l.. Bethea Visits Institu-
ton and is Impressed With the
Magnitude of the Work.

Editor Herald
1t was my privilege as well as
pleasure to visit Clemson College
several weeks ago as a member of
the Ways and Means committee. AS
you know, Clemson College has
been subjected to much adverse crit
icism from it's very incipiency, ow-
ing in part to the fact that it was
founded at time of factional strife
and bitterness and the creation OF
an agricultural college at this place
became one of the pet schemes of
a faction. The college has wealth
cred all the storms of opposition
and to-day ranks among the first
of its kind in the United States.
Yet in spite of it's growth and
the very evident need of an institu-
ton of this kind, which should en-
title it to a field of unhampered
repose in it's development, the cry
has gone up over the State that
Clemson is receiving too much mon
ey; that it's income is so vast that
ing ways to spend it.
To look things over and ascer-
tain the exact truth, was the object
of our visit. What did we find?
Well, in the first place, a college
of such magnitude as to remind us
of the labyrinth of which old Hero
ditus speaks that required days to
meander through the intricases OF
the buildings. This is not only true
as regards it's physical aspect-the
buildings, grounds and fields-but
the more so as to magnitude
variety of work done. 1t is a place
Of surprises, and pleasant ones, too
for one who can catch a vision of
the great promise of the future
Clemson is an aggregation of col
leges - agricultural, engineering,
textile, military and library. To
properly equip and finance such an
institution requires a vast deal of
money.
Besides, we found a college that
for economical management and sys-
etematic organization Is unsurpassed
anywhere. Everything Is accounted
for down to a box OF taeks, and
President Riggs is in touch with
everything from class room to
kitchen.
Another fact that appeals to us
more directly, is that the boys of
our State who desire an education,
especially along industrial lines,
have here at their very doors a
school approximating the best at the
North, and that, too, at a price
within the reach even of the poor

wants the best and where else could
