TttJt NEWS AND HERALD. PQBUaOKB MVSRY WEDNESDAY ?by? The News and Herald Co. TEBttS. IN ADUNfV Ome Tear. #1.50 Six - - .75 WJNNSBORG, S. C. Wedaesiay, May 16 - - - S.900 A FAMILIAR STORY. The South lose* by its narrowness in idaeational matters. Dr. Aldernan, Presidest of the Uaiversity of North Carolina, is oa? of the ablest men in the Southera colleges. lie is a native of Nortb Carolina and would naturally prefer to giv# his ?wn State *L- 1 * * 'oKnti TIo >c # man liltf UCJJCUL Ul 111! isisiiH. uv a. - of pecaliirly fiao executive abilities, and under bit administration the University of North Carolina ba? prospered and grown. Dr. Ahierman h?g been oflered and accepted tUe presidency of Tulane University, r.n insulation that has an attendance of nearly 1,000 students, and is so w?ll endowed that improvements eas be j made practically without limit. JNo fight will have to be mada before the legislature every year to get moaey enoajb to keep it rnnning. Thi Charlotte Observer speaking of the departure of Dr. Alderman says: |?Dr. Aldermau goes to Tttlane University. We are not serprised and do not blame him. We happen to know what impelled him to this decision, acd now, when it ean do no harm to do so, we are going to violate his confdence. It Is not the larger salary at Talane ikar tempts him. If the aalary at the University 01 j.\orin Carolina were Increased to a figure even approximately commensurate with his worth and what the State i* .? a le to pay (he himself used no such 1 ^jHage a> this) he would feel meaner than he eould afford to in receiving it, realizing that it was out of proportion to the salaries of the otber members of the faculty, and that the addition waa at the expense of the University general fund and might be better applied to the crying needs of the institution. These n eds are ardent, and unless they are supplied the University bas reaebod tbe limit ef its attendance and it? usefulness. If this is true then its present head has fully occupied his field and cannot hope for furthar nsefoiness here. To secare the continuation of the present appropriation involves a fi'fct before every recurring legislature?it is as much as a bareain to sret it atid tber? is scait prospect that it will be increased any time soon. The contest every two years to get what the institution bow. receives is disagreeable enough to drive the man who has to make it on* of the State, bat it ii not this, bat the hopelessness of any improvement "upon it, that, we believe, has influenced Dr. Alderman's decision. This soandi so familiar. The con ditions are so ibach the same as those ia this State. Every year iL is a question whether the legislature will appropriate sufficient money tc run oar educational institutions. Those in charge of the? must become weary of the neYer-ending contest for existence, iiatcrftiiT thav will when oatience is worn oat self relief by going to other States where plenty of room is jjiren for the exercise of their talents and usefulness. It is this narrow and illiberal spirit that holds us bask. Properly snppartsi oh the line whieh Dr. McBryde started, the South Caroliaa University would now hare bsen one of the leading institutions ox me country. The South Carolina College noir has s.t its head a man whose talents . _ are equal to any college president in the South. We do not know that be Is thinking of leaving, but we do know that such men are in demand elsewhere, and if South Carolina would retain men of tbis type, she Bust show her appreciation by furnishing room for the display of their usefulness. Ii can not be done by narrowness and illiberality. A TWO-SIDED QUESTION. Erery question ha* two sides to it, and whether or not the Stats cauvavs ?ho*ld be discontinued is no excep tioa. Soma strong arguments can be made itt far^r of senator Tillman's position. Canvassing every county in th? State is a severe tax on the pbysii ?a! strength of any mar , and it is v8ry expensive. Not every candidate can go orer the Slat? o* a biejcl* as Whitma* did, aid it maaas as expenditure of $500 to $600 to make tbe canvas?. Doubtless this expense deters many man fro*i becoaingf candidates, especially whan the reselt is Hncertain. Bat there are reasons just as strong in favor of a contianauce of the carcass. It is the only way new men can become accmaiated with tbe peeple of ?? J *< Xm <Ka >\ r? IflQ. me *jsr n. mc iu?oi bit way for the people te learn their views oq public questions. A discontinuance of the State ciavas? would give the "ins" a great advantage over the "oats." Oae of the principal rea?on? given for this provision of the party constitution was that every candidate was entitled to be heard by tkt people. It ininimizis the chance? fer the formation of riD?< *nd cliques. better feeling exists in the State I MUTT, SHU KlI^USSlVBt V/?U UUn uc u>u soberly and orderly, aud, therefore, profitably. ?0>lM ITTEE* SHOULD BE APPOINTED We suggest that Mt. Zion Society hold a meeting, and appoint commit* tees to s*e that proper attention is given to thd visitors on the day of the eclipse. It is e?pecially importaat that the young ladies from Winthrop and the Presbyterian College for Women and any others that suae IUUUIU ov vuivi tained. We shall not attempt to suggest what ought to be dou?, more than to say that they stould bo mat at the train by committees and Uken to some place, ML Zion College for iustanee, which the? could make the'r headquarters duriug the day. The society through Its committer can arrange all details. Cure Cold in Head.
