As originally submitted, the resolution
opposed signing of the the repealer

after one speaker had assorted that
he would not vote for a resolution

One clergyman asserted he favored
repeal of the State dry law, because
under present conditions persons were
compelled to be hypocrites as far as
enforcement was concerned.
'Busy Making Wine"
MI go among my friends," he said.
"many of whom are at this very convention.
and find wine upon their tables,
I like a glass of wine myself.
Many persons, including good Episcopalians,
are busy making their own
wine."
After on" speaker had termed prohibition
a dismal failure, Bishop Manning
asked permission to speak one
word. "I would not feel quite content
if 1 should sit in silence without expressing
my views" he said: "I stand
where I did last year before this convention.
I said then and I say now that
I have never been a prohibitionist, but
have always stood for upholding the
law. It would be most sat! and serious
if this great state of New York should
stand before the people of the land as
inclined to oppose the federal law. It
would be sadder still if this convention
representing the greatest diocese of
the country, should take that position.
I hope that the Governor, for the cred
it of the State, will see fit to veto this
law."
The resolution then was amended
and adopted.

Case
Many stories are rife regarding
Daniel Montgomery now in the comity
jail under the charge of a statutory
offense, his alleged victim being1 a
child under sixteen years of age.
Following and since his arrot last
week these comments and stories have
come out.
The defendant remains in the jail,
being uiv.ible, at last accounts, to
make bail and obtain his liberty. It
is not long from the time when the
Court of General Sessions will convene
and his case can be called up
and tried.
If things alleged are true, then it
appears that a most heinous crime
has been committed against a young
girl. If true then there is depravity
of the worst type existing somewhere.
Efforts of the better class of people
should be directed more than ever
toward the accomplishment of means
which will keep down things like
this.
It annears that the father had two
daughters and that Montgomery married
one. She died not long since. A
little baby that was left as a result
of the union also died. The father
discovered a note written to his

The sentence of death against Schlogetter

warns uie warrant was sworn out tor
the crime which is alleged in it.
Daniel Montgomery some years
ago was one of two boys who testified (
against a negro by the name of Ar- '<
thur Alston and all efforts to clear ^
the negro of the crime which they 1
| said they saw him /.it failed to clear i
him of the charge; although the 1
negro had been a good negro and *
had worked for years for a leading (
company in the lumber business. 1
Later on, it is said that Daniel 1
Montgomery was one of the witnesses 1
who swore to the violation of the <
prohibition law against Matthew <
Ward.
It appears, however, that the defendant
has not before been brought
up in the criminal courts under 1
charges of the violation of the law,
and the community should suspend its
judgment until the case is tried. It
is hardly so bad as the public comment
would paint it, in the opinion of
some, and stories wnicn nave noi neon
proven should not be repeated from
mouth to mouth while the case against
the defendant is pending. He should
have a fair chance to clear himself of
the awful charge that has been
brought against him.

WOMAN HURT
IN ACCIDENT
Sedan and Touring Car Smash
Heaaon When Meeting
Anderson.?Mrs. J. Earle Barton,
>f this city, sustained a broken hip
and other serious injuries and Mrs.
Ralph J. Uanier, also of Anderson,
was painfully hut not seriously hurt
is a result of an automobile accident
which occurred about 8 o'clock tonight
some ten miles from Anderson on the
Greenville-Anderson highway when
the sedan in which the two women
were riding1 collided with a car driven
by a Mr. Hughes, of Greenville, occupants
of that car were said to have
escaped injury.
In Critical Condition.
At a late hour tonight the condition
of Mrs. Barton was reported to
be critical, and she was in the operating
room of St. Mary's hospital for
several hours, it was reported. Mrs.
Ramer was rushed to the Anderson
county hospital. Examinations have
revealed the fact that she had only
suffered a sprained ankle and sustained
painful cuts about the face and
body as a result of having been slashed
by flying bits of glass from ihe
windshield and side shields of the
car. Both of the automobiles were
said to have been practically de- j
molished as a result of the terrific
impact. The two machines were reported
to have met in a head-on collision.
Rlindcd by Clare.
Roth drivers were said to have
been blinded by the glare of the
lights of a passing" automobile and a
cloud of du?t. which its passage
created, neither having seen the approach
of the other. There were no
indications that either of the cars
were being driven at an excessive
0f Mwd. the accident anparently
having been the result of the passrge
of another machine which contused
both drivers apparently. Mrs.
barton was driving the car in which
she and Mrs. Ramer were riding. The
Anderson party were making their
w.'iy to this city from Greenville, it
is undeistood, while the Greenville
party were returning from the Ho in/

IN MEMORY OF ARTHUR DEW
Thou art gone, but. not forgotten.
Thv dear faco linp*f?vQ still.
To guide us through life's tempest,
On the mountain's rugged hill.
Oh! That peaceful face we loved
Is withered now;
i iic j/n >"|iiiuuvMi ui ucuvil
Is on thy brow.
Thou hast loft us alone dear Arthur,
Alone to mourn our sad fate;
But we hope that we will meet you,
Waiting1 for us at the golden gate.
Our hearts were full of grief,
When we the message heard,
Oh! indeed our hearts were crushed,
And our eyes with tears were
blurred.
How our wenry hearts are yearning.
For your presence here tonight,
Yearning, yearning for you always,
At our fireside wiivm jhhI bright.
Thou hast left us heavy hearted,
Broken hearted, sick and sore,
Oh! What times we had together,
In those happy days of yore.
Hut all those times have vanished,
Your hope has always cherished me,
Has molded and decayed,
My faith on you was staid.
So, I'll bid you a last goodbye,
My brother I love you yet,
Remember you're always my guide,
And that you I'll never forget.
His loving sister,

DUST, WATKR AND INERTIA
Some years ago, when wr streets
were not then as dusty as now, we
longed for some remedy for this uncomfortable,
unhealthy and very expensive
nuisance, and we were asunrpil
Hint u'lion tl^A ?>? i'>"< -
MVt4VVt vlIt% v miv/ii inv; ucitci r* ui rvo
tem was installed that wo could then
get relief by having plenty of water
wherewith to lay the dust, and we suffered
with patience and fortitude until
that day should arrive. But when
will that day arrive is still the constant
question in the minds of a great
number of our citizens. We have the
water system, we have the hydrants,
we have the hose, we have a sufficient
force of city employees; but we still
have the dust, and in greater quantity
and of poorer quality, and of more
damaging results, both to our health,
our stocks, our buildings, and our dispositions.
Is there a remedy or relief? We
verily believe that there is or could
he one applied. It seems that the
method of sprinkling with the water
wagon is very much inadequate, therefore,
why not eliminate it. We have
hydrants over a large iportion of the
town?the portion that carries the
traffic that causes the dust menace,
so why not use the hose connection to
the hydrants and thoroughly wet each
Mock at least once each day, more often
if necessary. If there isn't any
small three-quarter-inch hose avail!
able for this purpose, then use the
old worn fire hose. There is always
a large quantity of this old hose on
hand that isn't sufficiently strong
enough for fire pressure, and should
he the very thing for use in sprinkling
the streets. If it leaked a little
in a few places that would be that
much better, for the more water on
the streels the less dust we have. It
is true this hose will be a little
heavier than the three-quarter-inch
hose to transport from one corner to
the other, hut we have several large
strong; nev.ro men on the city street
force, anil if necessary a reel can he
rigged up to carrv this hose from
place to place and it may he rolled
over the sidewalks and thereby furnish
pood hard surfaced transportation.
If 'his sprinkling is done early
in the mornings it can be done under
the direction and supervision of the
night police before he goes off duty,
and it will then l>e done before there
is any traflic on the streels to interfere
with the proper sprinkling. If
this sprinkling is done in the early
spring months when the air is still
_ 1 * * ...
cooi ,ina wnen cold foot will very
likely occur from vet feet of the
force engaged in doing the sprinkling,
then we suggest that the town assign
to the sprinkling force the employees
t^at have already been furnished hip
hoots, which they use in ditching and
when otherwise working in vrte" and
wet damp places.
I There may be a clause in the contract
that the water works commission
has with the Conway Lumber
Corporation in regard to tlie pumping
of the water and for the purnose to
which this water is to be used. The
contract may snv that all water used
through the hydrants must be for fire
purposes and for filling stree* sprinkling
wagons only. If that is the ca<e,
then an amendment to that contract
would be in order and an .'irrangoment
whereby the company now pumping
the water would pe pa'd accordingly
for the water used for street sprinkling.
This is just one woy 'hat it np pears
it could be done. There may be other
ways ?
See what Webster says about iner
tin?that applies to our attitude toward
the dint menace. The dust itself
is constantly agitated.
