SPLENDID MEETING HELD IN
COURT HOUSE LAST
EVENING
FLYING SQUADRON
Member? Were Here ?nd Made
Great Impression Upon Those
Who Attended.
Those who did not a'tend the moot
ing hold 5,i the interest of prohibition
lost evening In the court house miss
ed ono of tho rarest treats that hos
ever come within reach of the most
favored of Anderson's people, both In
music and the oratory and sound ar
guments of the speakers. Much to
the regret of all, only about 150 men
and about IG women attended.
Tho speakers, Oliver Wayne Stew
art of Chicago, former member of the
house of representatives from the
state of illinois, and J. Frank Manly,
formerly governor of the state of In
di? na, and tlie soloist, Miss Vera K.
M..illili of Indiana, the famous singer
of the 'Flying Squadron of America,
wore Introduced by Senator J. L.
Sherard, who stated the purpose of
the meeting and the necessity of the
voter? going to tho polls on Septem
ber 14, to cast their votes.
Tho first number on the program
was tho song. "America." led by Miss
Muilin. Till?; was followed by pray
er offered by Dr. J. M. Harrison,
pastor of tho Associate Reformed
Presbyterian church of this city.
Miss Mu Hin then sang a solo. "The
Nation IB Oolng Dry," which met with
such hearty approval that as an en
chore she rendered, "That Homo That
Used to Tie." Miss Muilin is a won
derful singer and has a clear, brilliant
soprano voice. The decided accent of
the words of thc songs and the pleas
ing and effective expression of her
countenance added much to the Im
pression of the singing as did also the
fact that she had a sympathetic ac
companist in the person of Miss Iris
E. Robinson of Indiana, the pianist
who lins been traveling with Miss
Muilin In ber tour with members of
the Flying Squadron. The singing
of this young lady cannot be praised
too highly, and those who did mot
hoar her. lost an opportunity of hav
ing heard one of tho greatest artist?
that has ever come to this city.
Mr. Stewart's Address.
After the Bongs Mr. Oliver Wayne
Stewart was Introduced and for nearly
an hour he held his audience with
sound, forceful arguments against tho
liquor trame and its dealy influence
from a business standpoint. His
address was by far one of tho most
convincing proofs that whiskey 1? evil
from the view of a business man and
his way of thinking that was ever
heard In this section of the state.
In the beginning Mr. Stewart said
that he was going to discuss the bus
iness side of the liquor trafile and he
asked the question. "Is it really a
benefit to a city, state or nation?"
tn answer to this Mr. Stewart state I
that business grows out of tho strug
gle in Ufe to get the necessities of
existences food and clothing, and that
these necessities brought abc-at the
production, distribution- and irnnsprv
tation of these necessary products,
which is the foundation of tho busi
ness world.
Mr. Stewart then discussed market -
which weare brought about by the nec
essities of Ufo. stating that the nec
essities brought about one-tenth of
the demand for food, clothing, fur
niture, etc.. the other ulne-tenths be
ing brought about by the desire- of
man. In-explaining this thc apeador
stated that, whiskey by producing the.
drunkard'destroyed all of the finer
qualities which causo him to want
those things that are not actual nec
essities hut which aro greatly des'r
ed, thereby destroying that which
created nine-tenths of the demand for
marketa and therefore business.
Another point brought out by Mr.
Stewart was that no mannufacturing
concern was ashamed of lia finished
product it it meant to continue in
business, but the whiskey dealers ?Te
ashamed of their's and never adver
able to be dependent primarily bn the
stated that the drunkard was their
finished product and that he had the
first time to see one of these placed
ctn exhibition in a wire cage at a coun
ty or state fair or at a national ex
position .
Mr. Stewart then discussed th?
question which is pat up by those la
favor ot laws allowing the liquor traf
fic, namely, that it Is a source of re
venue. He ?tated that it is not a
source of revenue because it ls not a
source of wealth and that revenue
must come from wealth. All wealth
can be expressed in labor and proper
ty and TWhtskey destroys both of
these.
Mr. Stewart closed his speech by
stating that in April the city of Chica
go would vote on the question of pro
hibition and the reason he waa here
was because of the fact that if South
Carolina veted down liquor it would
greatly assist the people of Chicago
In waging their fight.
Thia address was followed by anoth
er solo by Miss Mullins, which was
temperance words sung to the tuna of
"Annie Laurie."
Kx-Uorernor Heal];.
Mr. J. Frank Hanly's Speech was
an attack oa the liquor trafile from
a moral standpoint and it waa one
of the most profound aod deepest ar
guments that has ever hean brought
before tho people of Anderson. Mr.
Henty baa a deep base voice und
speak? his words with a ejear-cut
Coree, which added grtAtly to his ar
gument.
He stated tba? South Carolina vs?

very explicitly explained that a niar.'s

places lils fellowman in a dangerous
position. This point was clearly il
lustrated. ??nd the effect of the argu
ment could be seen by the expressen
on the facet of those In the sullener.
Mr. Manly closed his speech bv st?tt

The meeting was then closed by s

that a number of copies were sold at

BODY OF OEAO NEGRO
IDENTIFIED FRIDAY
WAS KILLED BY INTERURBAN
CAR LAST SATURDAY
NIGHT
CARRIED TO HOME
John T. Wallace, a Negro From
Greenville Game Over Yester
day to Make Identification.
The body of the negro who was kill
ed by the Piedmont & Northern car
near Willamston on last Saturday
night wac identified Friday morning
as that of Henry Line?la Thompson,
tho identification being made by Jo
T. Wallace, a negro of Greenville.
The body of tho negro was taken to
Greenville yesterday and will b? in
terned there.
After arriving in the city yesterday
morning Wallace was taken to tho
potter's field at the county home
where the remain? were hurled. The
coffin was uncovered and after v law
ing the body he stated that he was
positive that it was that of Henry Lin
coln Thompson. Several months ago
Thompson had received a cnt on his
left arm and eight stitches had to bo
taken. Wallace asked to see the arm
I stating that he would know positive
ly by the scar. He was Tight.
Wallace stated yesterday that
Thompson left his home in Greenville
about two months ago and that al
though many efforts had been made to
locate him, all had failed. It seems
that the dead negro was always long
ing to work on the railroad. Join a
circus or go with a gypsy train. It is
supposed that he left Greenville with
some traveling show or went off on
a freight train and that he was on his
way back home when ho was kill
ed.
Wallace stated that Thompson wai
about 18 years old and was a han',
working negro. At times he had some
kind cf "spells," and would go to
sleep. It is supposed that one of
these was responsible for him being
asleep on the car track when be was
killed.
Wallace, hearing of the accident,
went to the Interurban officials In
Greenville and gave a description of
the man he was trying to locate. The
officials told him that they thought tho
man was the one who had been kill
ed and he carno cm to Anderson to
Investigate.
