men that the state has produced. The col¬
lege is dear to thousands of South Caro¬
linians, and this announcment will be re¬
ceived with untold regret, and there
will undoubtedly be a hard struggle to
retain it. The superintendent of educa

sold in New Orleans in large quantities,
in violation of Louisana’s monopoly law.

EDITOR OCHS TALKS.
He Replies to Statements Concerning
the Southern Associated Press.
The New York Recorder, in its issue
of Saturday, printed the following from
Chattanooga, Tenn.:
“The publication in the New Yoik Times that
the proprietor of The Chattanooga Times ii dis¬
gruntled and will likely withdraw from the
Southern Associated Pres-', is without the
slightest foundation.
“I have for the past ten days persistently de¬
clined to receive the reports of the New York
Associated Press, though tendered to me has every
day. The Southern Associated Press no
member more loyal than myself.
“There was every effort made to create a mu¬
tinous spirit in the Southern Associated Press,
but it fai ed of its purpose. The Southern As¬
sociated Press has in iis membership South Carolina,Florida, every daily
newspaper of North and
Georgia, East Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi
and Louisiana that has heretofore received the
New York Associated Press news, paying there¬
for $150,000 per annum.
“The Southern Associated Press have, by con¬
tract, control in the states mentioned, Western of all
news of the United Press, and the organi¬ As¬
sociated Press, and through these two
zations, the two principal foreign news agen¬
cies. The proprietors and publishers of south¬
ern daily nowspap.rs had every the opportunity York As¬ to
continue their relations with New
sociated Pr ss, and on terms they could them¬
selves dictate, and they chose to decline all
overtures. It is supposed that they know what
they are about, all being successful business
men. The members of the Southern Associat¬
ed Press bear no ill will to the New York
Associated Press, but ioiued the

hardly worth mentioning, every daily newspa¬ lakes

that these men were in control of the
convention and had determined to carry
out their measures, contrary to all alli¬
ance traditions and principles, I with¬
drew fiom the hall and shall remaiu out
