COTTON GOES DOWN.

The cotton market went all the
way today. October futures in New
York closed 200 points below Satur-
days close. The closing figures were
1866. New York spots and New Or
leans spots went down from % to &c
cents.
The weakness is due largely to the
determination of the government not
to extend credit for the purpose of
enabling producers to hold their
crops off the market. The Texas peo-
pie seem to be panicky and are rush
ing thir cotton on the market.
The best price for cotton paid on
the local market today was '26 cents.

WILL NOT BREAK
TREATIES, SAYS WILSON
Congress Exceeded it's Authority in
Ordering Any Such Move, Says
Chief Executive.-Prece-
dent Found.

Washington, Sept. 25.-President
Wilson has declined to- take steps to-
ward termination of certain CONNER
cial treaties as directed by Congress
in the merchant marine act, holding
that "such a course would be wholly
irreconcilable with the historical re-
spect which the United States has
shown for it's international engage
ments."
Formal announcement of the Pres.
ident's decision and the reasons i'm.
pelling it was made today at the
State Department. The merchant ma,
rine act as approved by the President
on the closing day of the last session
of Congress directed the Executive
within ninety days to give notice to
foreign nations of the intention OF
the United States to terminate any
sections of existing commercial
treaties which restrict the right OF
the American Government to impose
discriminatory charges on shipping
in foreign bottoms.
Exceeded Its Authority.
The President in declining to com.
ply with the directions of the act, the
State Departments announcement
said, also held that Congress exceed
ed it's authority in giving such direc,
tions. Secretary Colby is quoted in
the announcement as experimenting
President Wilson on this point, citing
as a precedent the action of President
Hays in 1879 in refusing the demand
of Congress that treaty with China
be abrogated. The power of modify
ing treaties, President Hays said, is
not lodged by the constitution in
Congress.
Termination of the thirty-two treat
les affected by the act, the President
was said to have held, "would amount
to nothing less than the breach or
violation of said treaties which cover
every point of contact and mutual
dependence which constitute the mod
ern relations between friendly
States"

Dear Sir:
Replying to your inquiry of yes

Department of Commerce, has is
sued revised figures on the popula-
ton of the City of Abbeville and

3,766 in 1900.
The population of the county is

in 1910 and 6,457 in 1900. Cedar

PROHIBITION SAVES )
/. NATION 100000
GOVERNOR MILLIKEN OF
MAINE GIVES FIGURES FOR
FIRST YEAR-oNLY UNDER
TAKERS LOSE IN BUSINESS.
IN ADDITION TO SAVING OF
NATIONS WEALTH, CRIME
AND SUFFERING DECREASE.
LABOR IS IMPROVED.

Washington, Sept. 26.-Prohibi-
ton was credited with producing
saving of s2,OOO,OOO,OOO for the ma
ton in the last year by Governor
Milliken of Maine in addressing the !
closing session tonight of the 18th
International Congress Against AL
coholism. ..
'tProhibition," he declared, "has
made most kinds of business better
and has injured no legitimate busi-
ness except that of the undertaken"
'The three outstanding results Of
prohibition" he continued, "are the
saving of about $4,000, 100000
waste in expenditure, a tremendous
increase in the efficiency of labor
and a startling decrease in crime
with it's attendant: poverty and
wretchedness.
From the standpoint of practical
government, however, the most i'm
portant contribution that prohibi-
tion has made to the welfare Of the
nation is to be found in the simple
fact that new generation will be
growing up untainted by the liquor
habit, and unhampered by the con-
ditions of squalor and wretchedness
which, the liquor habit has imposed
upon so many thousand innocent
children in the past. ~
''The supreme Importance Of pro-
prohibition lies in the fact that it
gives the average boy and girl in A
merica a better chance to grow up !
into a citizen and because the very
existence Of our form of govern
ment depends upon the develop
ment of that sort of citizenship in !,
the coming generation, prohibition
is entitled to rank as one of the
great safeguards of national life"
Referring to the economic bene-
fits of prohibition. Governor Mill
ken declared that the nations drink
bill formerly amounted to $2,000,-
100000 annually, and this money,
he declared, "now finds it's way into
the normal channels Of legitimate
trade"
"The grocers, the clothiers,
amusement proprietors and the
banks, he added, are getting the
money that formerly went for
drink. Hotels that fancied them
selves dependent on the liquor busi-
ness are doing the best busi-
ness in their history without it. Pro-
hibition has not only eliminated an
enormous waste in expenditures,
but it has greatly increased the efti-
cheney of labor. The average life Of
the laboring man is longer, under
prohibition, he does better while he
is at it and works more steadily. A
report from one large labor agency,
in an industrial section is typical. 1t
is stated that one of $4,000 men en-
ployed by that agency when the
country was wet, the average
length of time that the man remain
ed on the job was less than 80 days.
The average more than doubled \
with the first year of prohibition"

CLEMSON COLLEGE
ADDS DEPARTMENT
Direction of Student Affair.". r, d.
Under Prof. D. H. Henry
Long Been Needed.

Clemson College, Sept. 26.-With
the beginning of the present college
year perhaps the most noteworthy
change in the general organization
Is the creation of. new department
of the college, to be known as the
department of student affairs,
which will handle practically all of
the matters pertaining directly, to
the student life of the college ex-
cept' OF course, the military disci-
pline. Heretofore, such matters as
the management of the student mess
the student hospital, the various
voluntary student activities, etc.,
which have not been organized into
a special department, have been
in charge directly or indirectly
OF the registrar or the president,
whose other duties have made it
hard for them to give special at
tention which those matters deserve:
The head of the new department
is Prof. D. H., Henry, who is pecu.
lialy fitted for this work. He is q
graduate of Clemson College and
has been in the service of the .insti-
tuition, for 20 years in the depart
ment of chemistry. He has always
been in close touch and sympathy
with student life and has those per-
sonal qualities which make him ad-
mirably fitted to direct the student
affairs.
Working under Professor Henry's
department the new mess officer, J.
D. Harcomb, will have charge Of the
mess hall, the laundry and the COL
lege hotel. Mr.. Harcomb comes to
Clemson from New York, where he
was mess officer of the United
States general hospitals on Staten
Island.
AS already announced, the cadet
hospital will be in charge of DR..
George Dawson Heath, who sue
ceeds DR.. A. M. Redfern as college
surgeon.
Several voluntary activities, in
cluding athletics the college publ
cations, etc., will also be supervised
by Professor Henry as a part of the
student affairs department. At a re-
cent meeting of the board of trus-
tees general student activity fee
was provided for, all students pay
ing this fee upon entrance, and
thereby automatically becoming in
some degree participants in those
activities. The fee includes member
ship in the athletic association and
Y. M. G.. A., subscriptions to The
Tiger and The Chronicle.
Another phase of Professor
Henry's work as director of student
affairs is that of acting in capacity
of dean of students so that his Office
will be sort of clearing house for
the various individual and COL
lective student problems. Such po-
sition as this has long been needed
and it is believed that much good
will result from his work in this
capacity.
