If could run the weather for sea-
sons two or three, a medal made Of
leather you'd doubtless hand to me.
The climate now presented strikes us
as being bad; most men are discon-
tented, and some Of us are mad.
When sunshine's badly needed, the
rain falls every day, the fields by
hard work seeded, are drowned and
washed away. And when we need
some water to save our oats and rye,
the sun gets hot and hotter, and crops
begin to CRY. I'd get my friends to-
| gether and ask for their advice, If !
could run the weather just once, or
maybe twice. I'd ask the honest vo-
tiers, the farmers blue and tired, the
weary burden toters, to tell what
they desired. I'd give them what
they wanted, a cyclone or some sleeti
by precedent undaunted, I'd give it
and repeat. The man who runs the
weather sits in a tower alone, and
cares no fig nor feather how weary
mortals moan. He has no helpful
system, no useful plan in force
though we have often Kissed him, he
goes his bughouse course; he keeps
the punk sun sizzling when we are
needing rain, and sends the water
drizzIing when foods are on the plain
He combs his hangdown heather, and
runs things hit or miss; if ! could rur
the weather I'd fill your lives with
bliss.

Bodies Hacked to Pieces

San Francisco, March 24.-Confir-
nation of the execution of the for
mer Emperor of Russia and his wife
and daughters, under particularly
revolving conditions by Bolsevik
troops was given here today by Gen.
Robert C. Paris, one of the first
French officers to be assigned to the
Czecho-Slovak army in Russia Gen.
Paris is on his way home to make an
official report of the occurrence to
the French government. He arrived
here yesterday from Vladivostok.
Women Insulted.
Nicholas and his family were shot
in the basement of their house at
Ekaterinburg, Siberia. The women
of the once royal family were sub
jected to indignities and mistreat-
ment in the presence of the former
Gar before the execution took place,
Gen. Paris said.
The house is now the headquar-
tiers of Gen. Gaida; a Czecho-Slovak
commander. Describing the scene
attending the execution of the Ro-
manoff. family, Gen. Paris said:
Story of Executions.
EARLY one morning the Car was
taken from an upstairs room and
stood against the wall in the base
ment of the house. There he was
shot, after which the Czarina was
shot and then her daughters and oth-
er members of the household.
"a few days following the mur-
der the bodies were taken under
cover of night by automobiles into
nearby villages, where they we're
cut into small pieces and burned
separately. The charred remains
were found by officers of the forces
opposed to the Bolsheviki. Pieces of
the burned clothing also were found.
/ Proof that the garments were those
of the Romanoffs were given by the
fact that the diamonds which the
Czarina and her daughters wore in
their waists were picked up.
''The room in which the murder
was committed is now sealed. The
plaster on the walls showed where
the rife bullets penetrated. The
bullets were removed with bayonet
points. Blood stains have been
washed from the floor. Under the
flooring, however, little pools of
blood were found. In several places
in the death room blood seeped
through the cracks in the floor.
Everyone in Russia is now thor
oughly convinced that the entire Ro-
manoff household was wiped out by
the Bolshevists. The official reports
sent to France were conclusive.
"The Car and his family are dead.
That is positive"

Governor Acts in Matter.

Columbia, March 22.-stating
that the board of trustees of the Uni
versity of South Carolina ''haye no
idea of permitting the students to
dictate who shall be president of
the institution, Governor Cooper, in
behalf of the board, of which he is
ex-officio chairman, gave out state
ment tonight saying that a special
meeting would be held before June
to consider the action of the l66
undergraduates of the university
who signed a petition asking for the
dismissal of DR.. William Spencer
Currell, president of the institution.
This petition was presented to the
board of trustees last Tuesday and
alleges that the university had de-
Perforated under the presidency of
DR.. Currell, that he was cold, lacking g
in inspirational power, has not the
qualities of leadership which would
would make the university an insti-
tuition of power and that he is an in
efficient and incompetent executive.
The petition, however, attested to
the educators high character and in
tegrity and to the soundness of his
scholarship.
Have Full Confidence in DR.. Currell.
The governors statement said that
board would not consider the opin-
ions of the students, but would inves-
tigate existing conditions among the
undergraduate at the university
"Dr. Currell has been duly elected,
the trustees have full confidence in
him." said the statement, land at
this time there is no disposition on
/ the part of the board to dispense
with his services"
Letter Read at Students Meeting.
In connection with the statement,
Governor Cooper gave out a copy OF
letter written by him to A. G.
Buchanan, Jr., president of the stu
dent body, read at mass meeting OF
students this morning, which said
that the board of trustees 'feels that
it is capable of managing the affairs
of the institution, and if at any time
we feel that a. suggestion from the
student body will aid us in the per
! formance of our duty we will not
hesitate to ask for it"

ING THIS SERIOUS STEP.

Petition Alleges That University Has
Gone Down Under the Present
Administration.

Columbia, March 1S.-Students of
the University of South Carolina to-
day presented to the board of trus-
tees of that institution petition ask
ing for a new president in place CT
the incumbent, DR.. William Spenser
Currell; which is tantamount to ask
ing for DR.. Currell's resignation. The
pttition was signed by 166 students
out of an enrolled student body of
24O, of which forty were young wo-
men who were not approached on the
subject. Thirty-four of the men did
not sign; the majority of these, it is
said, being special and day students,
who did not room in the campus DOR
mitories. The petition was voted on
at mass meeting of students yester-
day afternoon. The board of trustees
which met today, gave immediate
consideration to the petition.
Alleges Deterioration.
The petition states that the insti-
tuition has deteriorated under the

students allege is an inefficient and
incompetent executive; is lacking in
the qualities which would draw the
students to him, and has not the
leadership which will make the uni
versity a great institution.
eve have no charge to present as
to DR.. Currell's character, personal
integrity and zeal in laboring for the
university's interests said the petit
ton. 1--WE record a high regard for
his moral qualities. We believe him
a gentleman of scholarship and cul-
ture."

in the banks to the credit of the coun-
ty to run the government a year, or
until the 1919 taxes are paid.
The following comment accompa-
nies the publication of the statement
of the Barnwell treasurer:
1t will be seen from the above
statement that when all of the taxes
have been collected, the Indebtedness
will be s1,603.58, and there will be
some balance by reason of executions
and rebates allowed by the county
auditor which will have to be de-
Quoted, but it is assumed that these
will be partly, if not wholly, supple
mented by additional taxes and per
altles that have accrued since Janua-
ry 1st. 1t is we'll to say just here
that in the item of expenditures is
included corrugated piring which has
been used in various places in Barn.
we'll county, and the old time wooden
bridges, which heretofore have been
such a heavy tax upon the county,
have been done away with, which
will mean saving of thousands OF
dollars to the county every year.
There is now pending suit
against the Southern Railway COM
pany for damages to the county truck
in the sum of about 100000. to-
gether with cost, etc., which, if COL
lected, will more than liquidate the
Indebtedness
From the above it will>be seen that
there is no just cause of complaint
or criticisms of the county officials
for the increased expenses which
have been incurred for the past few
years. If the critics will only stop to
think what the increased cost Of
their business has been for the past
three or four years, they can readily
see why it is that the county eXpen-
ses have increased. While the far
mer has had to pay higher prices, for
every plow, hoe, rake, etc., that has
been used on his farm he has also
realized a greater increase in prices
for his cotton, corn, potatoes, etc
and the county has been forced, by
reason of these high prices, to pay
more than twice the old price for
corn, hay, oats, etc., and three times
as much for bacon, convicts' clothes
md shoes, and the same advance IN
prices for all machinery that has had
to be used by the chaingang. The
question now is, how can the county
meet these increased expenditures
without a levy upon the property of
the taxpayers, as it has no corn, cot
ton, nor anything else to sell and ev-
erything to buV?

Note:-It is evident that the total
valuation of property is $7,29e,57O.
instead of s72,s95.7O, as given in the
published statement.
It will be noted that when all the
takes, fines, license fees, etc., are re-
ceived, the total current receipts OF
Barnwell county will lack S1,603.3S
of reaching the amount already
spent. Thus the county is at least one
year sbehind, and there will be no
funds on hand with which to pay the
expenses of the county government
Until taxes are again collected.
Bamberg county has paid all its
bills. and has on hand at this time
s25,335.6O, for county purposes. In
addition, the schools of the county
had to their credit on Feb. %, s24,-
374.40. The Barnwell statement
does not indicate the amount the
schools of that county have to their
credit.
Bamherg county's fund will be ma
terially increased when the money for
the insurance license fees, automo-
bile tax, fines, etc., is received.
If Barnwell county at present
shows deficit of s1,603.3S, what
will the deficit be on July 1, when
the settlement will be made with the
comptroller general? All the taxes
will then have been collected, and
there will be no receipts until the
1919 taxes begin to come in, but the
expenses of the county government
will go on as usual.
Bamberg county had on hand last
July /, $16,47S.70, and Treasurer
Jennings states that there is no rea-
son why there should not be as good
balance next July; in fact, it is like.
ly that there will be more money on
! hand at the next settlement.
