CHGCKIVQ STATE UNIVERSITY
Two of Auditor Barton' Acconataat
Hard at Work.
Stat Auditor Barton, through State Ac
countant Tuileys and J. M. Gilchrist, Is
conducting a thorough Investigation of Ihe
State university.
It has been customary for the university
regents to employ sn accountant to check
up the books of the secretary and pur
chasing agent, but this Is as far as the In
vestigation went checking the books with
the vouchers.
The Investigation being conducted by Aud
itor Barton lll go further than that. The
accountants will request the students to
make a statement shewing just how much
money they have paid Into the school and
thess statements will be compared with
th records on file In th university.
Voucher for supplies of sll kinds will be
looked Into and a report will be made as
to whether the supplies are needed or
whether the good delivered were as spe
cified In the contract.
Since the investigation started severs! In
quiries have been made at the office of the
auditor to see Just how far the Investiga
tion will go.
Mr. Barton said he Intended to go back
Just as far as he thought necessary and
the Investigation would also extend to the
purchase of books, which, under the law.
are to be sold to students at cost.
Mr. Barton already has a number of
statements from students regarding the
money they have paid to the Institution
for books, snd these will be compared with
the wholesale price of the books. The sal
aries of various Instructors will, be re
ported In a lump sum, so it will be possible
to tell Just how much each Instructor re
ceives. At this time several of the in
structors are paid out of several funds and
It requires some figuring to tell Just what
these persons receive.

Twnr-Blchth Year of Negro School
Close with Fine Record.
With th awarding ot JM diploma and
trade certificates to boys snd girls, 1(16 of
whom wer seniors In both acsdemle snJ
Industrial branches. Tusgeke Institute
brought Its twenty-eighth year to a close
May 17.
The graduating class of this year num
bers 106. sgainst 90 of last year, and the
class which Is to finish In l'.HO numbers
now 140.
Thus each year Is witnessing sn In-'
crease of boys and girls who sre seeking
to learn a trsde whereby they expect to
earn a living and be of service to their
race.
From th very outset the school this
year has emphasised its own kind of com
mencement exercises. The cK5lr which
so charmed the heart of Andrew Carnegie
and th school band which so thrilled
Belton Gllreath of Birmingham, out
stripped their own good records for hand
ling negro melodies fur commencement
exercises.
Th divinity school or Phelps Bible
school, In graduating Ha men, placed ad
ditional stress on tha Importance of know
ing people and condltlona now rather than
thousands of years sgo. In a word, addi
tional stress was placed upon practical
everyday living even for ministers.
Commencement program was divided Into
two parts, part one taking place In the
morning, and part two In the afternoon.
In the morning. Raymond D. Taborn, salu.
atorian, discussed "Modern Methods tn the
Educallon-of the Faremr"; Paul J. Jeffer
son discussed "The Value of Pork Pro
duction' to the Southern Farmers"; Charles
L. Pearson, "The Small Farmer as a
Factor In Our National Life"; Belle E.
Williams. "Work In Corn Shucks"; snd the
wife of M. C. Moore, of Austin, closing the
morning exercises with the alumni anni
versary address.
In the sfternoon the program was con
tinued with a speech by Stonewall .1.
Dlllard on "Open Fields for the Graduate
of Trade and Technical- Schools"; Algle H.
Caruthers, "Making a Pamphlet"; Reg
inald A. Morter, "Electricity as a Source
of Motive Power"; Charles W. Csrpenter,
valedictorian, "Th Teachers' Psrt in the
Improvement of General Health Condi
tions," closing the sfternoon exercises
with ths commencement address by J. E.
Asbury of Philadelphia, Pa.
Th special features of the day were the
music, the student Illustration of his own
work, letter of regret read from absent
friends, and the visitors.
ARE COLLEGES A
"CIRSEf"
Assertion of nn Employer of Labor
Refuted.
According to a Chicago millionaire who
Is a large employer of labor, colleges are
a "curse." They demoralize young men
and unfit them for serious labor. State
legislatures instead of appropriating public
funds to the support of these higher In
stltutlons of learning would do better to
put tha torch to them.
The man who makes this, onslaughter on
education has amassed a fortune building
elevators, comments the New York Her
aid. If boy had never gone to college
and professors had never mads laboratory
experiments in hydraulics and In electrical
energy elevators might or might not be
carrying passengers to the top of tall of
flc buildings.
But concerning the charge that a col
lege education breeds Idleness and Inca
pacity, where is the evidence to be found
warranting the broad statement? Cer
talnly not In the record of ths Harvard
class of 1908, nearly one-third of whose
members worked their way wholly or In
part through college and all of whom are
now either in active employment or con
tinuing their studies. Nor In the protest
ot the college oarsmen aga'lnst the post
ponement of the Poughkeepsle regatta on
the ground that the later date would In
terfere with their taking employment. Nor
yet In the conditions reported by a com
missioner of the London Times, who noted
the greater number and influence of col
leg men In business life a one of the
striking phenomena of American develop
ment. Why are college graduates preferred In
banking houses and In law offices T If
college men are Idle and incompetent, why
la there an Increased demand for them in
Industrial life.
Th assumption that under the present
conditions of study colioges are agreeable
loafing places is an exploded fallacy. A
college degree Is today a certificate of
capaolty and industry quite equal to any
the office youth of equal age can show.
Th prejudice exhibited against a college
education by th self-made Chicago mil
lionaire who is thankful that he never had
on Is interesting mainly as an Instance
of th survival at this late day of the old
"tpwn and gown" animosities.

Mexican Oil
Report Not to
Be Made Public
President Taft and Secretary Bal-
ling-er Will .Not Divulge
Details of Documet.
WASHINGTON. June 6,-Presldent Tfl
and Secretary Bslllnger reached the con
clusion thst It would not be consistent
with tlie Interests of th public service
to dlvuige the details of the Information
gathered in the oil fields of Mexico re
cently b Vr. C. W, Hayes, chief geolo
gist Thl i decision was communicated to
the renstc today In a message from th
White Mci.se in response to a senate res
olu'.tim. Aiiaihed to President Taffa message
Is a letter of the secretary of the In
terior poll ting out that Dr. Hayes re
ceived his Information from the owners
of tl.o Mexican oil rields under an obliga
tion of secrecy. Dr. Hayes, however, sup
plemented his conclusions from a personal
visit to tha oil-producing' regions snd
these snswef most of the questions pro
pounded by the senate resolution.
These conclusions state.
"While these fields promise to yl-ld a
large quenttty of crude oil, Its quality Is
s irh that .It cannot compete under pres
ent conditions In the markets of the United
States or Europe with the higher jraiie
petroleum of the Appalachian, Illinois or
mid-continent fields. Further, the condi
tions sre such that the demand for fuel
oil and refined products In Mexico ex
ceed the supply avallablo at present or
In the future.
"The conditions In " the Mexican field
are not favorable for the small operator
and It Ls highly probable that production,
as well aa refining, will remain In the
control rf n very few strong companies."
