tration Building Costing Over
100000
The State. 31st.

The State, 3lst.
The cornerstone of Chappelie ad-
ministration building at Allen uni
versity was laid yesterday after
noon.
The principal address at the laying
of the cornerstone of the administra-
ION building yesterday afternoon
vas by Superintendent J. Z. Swear
ingen of the department of educa-
ton. Bishop Chappelle said in in
troduciag Nc. Swearingen that he had
learned f Mr.. Swearingen's lnten-
ton to run for governor of the state,
but Mr. Swearingcn had done so much
good for the public schools that he
would rather see him remain in the
Office Of state superintendent of edu-
caticn
There was a large crowd present.
The speaking was on a platform IN
the open at the corner Of Taylor and
Harden streets where the new build
sing is being erected. Mr.. Swearingen
gave the negro audience splendid
talk along the lines of making them
selves more useful through the right
kind of education. He said that the
school problem was fundamental and
must be handled by white and black
people working in spirit of mutual
help. Mr.. Swearingen was listened
to attentively and loudly applauded
at times.
Mr.. Swearingen complimented the
management of Allen university on
the excellent showing being made in
the work of the college. He said DR..
Jesse Jones Of the Phelps Stokes foun
dation made a survey Of all negro
colleges and high schools in the Sou
thern states, and his report showed
that Allen university has furnished
more teachers than any of the other
schools anywhere. If this large num-
Der from Allen are fully prepared for
their work they have an opportunity
20 render valuable service, he said.
: Following Mr.. Swearingen were ad-
dresses by C. C. Johnson of Aiken,
grand master of she negro Masons,
and I. D. Davis of Sumter, also one
of the leaders Of the negro Masonic
grand lodge. The stone was laid by
the negro Masons. On behalf Of the
trustees of Allen a response was de-
livered by L. r. Nicholas Of Charles
ton.
The new building at Allen is to
cost S116,5O0 and when completed
will eclipse anything Of IS kind in a
negro college of the South, according

TO RECEIVE HIGH SCHOOL
DIPLOMAS AFTER so YEARS

Atlanta, April 1.-Superintend-
ent of Schools button will have a
problem on his hands tonight when
he delivers diplomas to a class gradu-
ated from the boys high school. Al
most without exception, its men,
bers have the advantage over him in
years and therefore, in experience
and the homily which usually at
tends such occasions would be sadly
malapropos.
The class was graduated in 1872
and included a number of boys who
have achieved prominent places in
the vocatio:,s they afterward select
ed. Among them were Clark Howell,
editor of the Atlanta Constitution,
Frank P. Rice, leading realtor, Mari
on Erwin, prominent in southern le-
gal circles, and many others. For
some reason, long forgotten, the
diplomas were never presented to
the young hopefuls in the years in
~tervening since their graduation.

SUBSTANTIAL GIFTS
MADE TO ORPHANAGE
Citizen of Clinton Gives Laundry
Building-Abbeville Church Pro-
vides Equipment.

Clinton, April Through the in
terest and generosity of friends, sub
stantial improvements are soon to be
made at the Thornwell orphanage
here. Through the ~liberality Of M. S.
Bailey Of this city, who has been a
member of the orphanage board since
its foundation in 1875, a modern,
well equipped laundry building is to
be constructed of reinforced concrete
with a concrete floor, steel window
frames with ribbed glasses. Tentative
plans are waiting the arrival Of a
practical ~laundryman. It is proposed
to make this one. of the attractive
buildings of the campus and it will
be known as the NJ. S. Bailey laundry.
In the recent 100000 campaign
the Presbyterian church at Abbevlle
made a subscription sufficiently large
for the putting in of a rodern laun-
dry equipment.
John McSween Of Timmonsville, a
board member since 1885, and his
son, the Rev. John Acsween, have
made it possible to install a linotype
machine in the orphanase printing
Office. This will be a valuable addi
ton in that it will enable the print
ing Office boys who select this line Of
work TO get the necessary training.
The orphanase authorities are deeply
grateful to these friends for their
substantial gifts with which to pro
vide these greatly needed improve
ments.

CRUSHERS ASKING
FOR LOWER TARIFF
West Tells Committee That High
Rates Would. Injure Ameri-
can Exports.

Rates Would Injure Ameri.
can Exports.
Washington, April 1.-The South
Carolina Cotton Seed Crushers' asso-
citation, which some time ago favored
the high tariff on cottonseed oils con
tanned in the Fordney bill as it pass
ed the house, is now insisting that the
tariff be materially lowered.
The secretary Of the association,
w. B. West, testified today before
the finance committee Of the senate.
: He argued that if the high tariff
prevails, Europe, which now buys
American cottonseed oil as an edible
oil, and for it pays handsomely, will
buy Oriental, oil and thus deprive the
American product Of q lucrative mar
ket. he contended that if the tariff
is very low America will consume the
Oriental oil. in baser purposes and
thus leave Europe open for the Amer
lean product.
It is regarded as probable that the
committee will follow the edviee Of
Mr.. West. Apparently it wishes to
give Southern protectionists just what
they desire for their products.

THE BONUS

Fred q. Dominick, congressman
from the third district, is the only
CONGRESSMAN from South Carolina
who voted against the bonus to SOL
diers Of the world war, and in the
opinion Of the Press and Banner is
the only congressman from South
Carolina who voted right.
Why should the soldiers in the
World War receive a bonus any
more than the soldiers Of the Span
ish-Ameeican war? Many Of them,
a large majority in fact, did not see
the service, mol endure the hard
ships, which members Of Company
A, Of the First South Carolina regi-
ment, and which members Of Cap
tain Perrin's company saw and en-
dured.
And if q bonus is to be paid, why
is It not limited to those who actual
" saw service on the field Of battle?
Why should officers who never saw
the smoke Of battle and who re-
ceived far more money for their
time and training than they had
ever earned before receive a bonus,
when this country is tax-ridden to
the breaking point?
Did the soldiers who fought in the
last great war fight as patriots as
did the soldiers in all the other great
wars in which the country has been
engaged, or were they after serving
in order to hereafter receive the
bonus money? It seems to US that
this ~insistent demand for money
from the public treasury does at
least a large percentage Of the men
who fought a great injustice.
The politicians say they r for a
bonus because they promised their
constituents they would vote for a
bonus. We rather think that many
Of them are for a bonus because
they are seeking the soldier vote.
They think to get the whole soldier
vote, taking chances that the people
who pay the bonus will not be Of
Tended. But unless we are misin-
formed the taxpayers will be heard
from az well as the soldiers
Perhaps after all the taxpayers
may decide that the war was fought
by this country to make the world
safe for democracy and not to
make public money easy in a vote
getting scheme by congressman.
