ANDERSON, Ind, Sept. 9.-Business
men. irrespective of party affiliations. are
much angered at the vile attack in to-day's
Sentinel upon Hon.. Charles /. Henry. The
statements imputed to Mr.. Henry relating
to labor organizations is a lie pure and sim
pie. Since the appearance of the paper here
to-day several Democrats have announced
their determination to vote for him. Mr..
Henry is not in the city to-day. Mr.. Len
Cox. superintendent of the street-railway
system, said to the Journal representative
to-day:
II don't know a thing about that state
ment and l never heard or SAID as mucn
to any one. / don't know how IL could have
been invented. 1t won't do any good for
them TO make that sort of warfare or MIR.
Henry. L will have more TO say On TINS
subject"
Mr.. Cox is a Democrat. but has been in
the employ of the company ever since Mr..
Henry has been in control of the lines. The
Evening Bulletin, whose editor is a bitter
Democrat. says, under the caption, Can
didates and Organized Labor"
"A more uncalled for, unjust and untruth-
full political attack could not have been
made against a man than that OF the Sen
tlnel against Charles l.. Henry. Republican
candidate for Congress-, this morning. What
adds to the meanness of the article Is the
IdCL Ludl IL was pIcpdIcu III <ihucl SUM-, tic
home of Mr.. Henry, and by people. whom
nc has repeatedly befriended and VINO
knew every line of the article to be false.
Fortunately. they have so overdraWn their
charges that the falsity of them is patent
TO every one and especially to the people
of Anderson and Madison county. 1t is
known by all here that to Charles Henry
belongs the credit of furnishing more men
employment than to any other man In the
city. Ending with to-day he has pad laboring
men, teamsters, shovelers and common Ia
borers $4,000 since last June. This was done
in the building of streets and in
Evalyn addition and had IT not been for
Charles l.. Henry that s60,000 would not
have gone into the hands or Anderson
working men. The reference to the dis
charge of street railway employees because
of the talk Of forming a union Is a lie.
simple and pure. as the Bulletin will be
able TO show by statements from the men
themselves. When he is quoted as saying
thst he would never again have a cent or
his money invested in any business or en-
~terrrise that was controlled by a id
tyranny Of organized labor the lie has
hall on its teeth. Everybody who knows
Mr. Henry knows he never swears or uses
profane language.
Low here is another thing about the
article. The Bulletin has verbatim express
sions from more than one candidate and
more than one leader of the county Democ-
.racy on the organized labor question and IL
the Democratic managers here want to
make that an issue the Bulletin will be at
home with them and in the front parior.
III ii amt give them cards and spades on
that question and take the trick hands
down, then it will acknowledge that it DOM
know what IL is talking about and that is
something 1t has never done yet. Come on
with your fun, Mr.. Bynum, and while you
are explaining the Bulletin will have a lot
of fellows not a thousand miles from the
Madison county courthouse doing the same
thing. Such as that is meat for this pa
per. Cut her loose and see the fur fly"
