Especial to News and observer.l


Monroe, n. c., June 27.-The Anti
Whiskey League of Union county held
its regular monthly meeting here this
afternoon in the court house and was at
tended by large majority of its mem
beers. The body was addressed by several
of the leading members and the whole
meeting was full of enthusiasm. The effect
of the Watts bill relative to the legal
and illegal manufacture and sale of in
toxicants was freely discussed The best
plan to extinguish the scattering blind
tigers" remaining was also given consid-
cradle attention and arrangements to
carry out this plan were perfected Reso-
lutions were adopted to arrange for at
least three addresses in each township
i'll the county by Hon. r. f. Beasley,
Prof. Walker and others during the sum
mer. Delegates were appointed to attend
the State league to be held at Raleigh,
July 18th.
Union, no doubt, has the whiskey traf-
fic as well under control as any county
in the State, and expects to master it en-
tirely before her efforts cease.

The structure viii be a handsome one Of
modern design and vii lcost $4,000 OF
more When completed this will perhaps
be one of the most handsome church
buildings in this part of North Carolina.
1t is learned that a prohibition election

3rd One of the issues will be a practical
protest, taken by vote, against distiller-

An election is to be held here August

The Judge Charges the Jury.

Special to News and Observer
Wilson, N. c., June 27.-This has been
a day for the State in the Jones murder
trial. Hon. F. A. Spruill in closing the
argument in. the case. realizing as he did
what this trial meant to business in North
Carolina and Wilson county, put forth the
noblest effort of his life. His speech ex-
ceeds in power, argument and eloquenee
anything which has been produced by
this famous trial Mr.. Spruill's reputa-
ton is we'll known to Wilson. and since
the argument has been on the one idea
uppermost in the minds of Wilson people
has been. .sWhen will Spruill speak.
Twas no surprise then that he should
have been heard by every one who could
find a seat or standing room IN the court
house. After a touching appeal to the
Jury to do justice for the killing of Per
cy Jones, he closed a speech of three
hours duration which will linger long in
the minds of Wilson people.
After an able charge by Judge Shaw the
case went to the jury at O'Clock this at
ternOon.
By many verdict was expected after
the jury had the case an hour, but as yet
they have not known their willingness to
render verdict and there is beginning to
rise in the minds of many the possibility
of a mistrial.

Friday Mornings Session.

When court was opened this morning
Mr.. ]. r. Uzzell continued his argument
began on yesterday. He continued say
ing:
IF Bill Barnes statement was not true.
why did they not put Piver on the stand
and disprove it? We have put on forty
or more witnesses and Bill Barnes would
have been the smartest man on earth II
he could have told tale which has been
supported and coroborated by most OF
these witnesses The counsel for the de-
Tense have not been satisfied with trying
to blacken Bill Barnes character. but
the yhave made an effort to blacken the
character of the man who has been butch
cred and can not defend himself. They
have told you that Jones was arrested
about a negro woman, but was he not
tried and acquitted on every charge? Is
not the evidence that Rich and Morgan
were at Cora Dutys? Why then should
this class of men be called on to run a
man out of town because he was living
in adultery? Does the evidence show that
these men have right to question man
who is living in adultery? What motive
prompted anyone to kill Jones? We know
that Jones was killed, but nothing points
to this motive except the statements OF
Geo. Whitley. There is one of these de-
PENDANTS who had higher motive for get
ting Jones out of town and he took the
advantage of Whitley's drunken condi-
ton to get clear of Jones. You know this
man. He is in the court house. You
know that VIM Barnes told you that
Lawrence Morgan was the man who pro-
posed to go off and fire a pistol to attract
the attention of the police. This is the
man who was behind the whole affair.
Mr.. Woodard told you that all the evi-
dence was circumstantial. These witnesses
have goneson the stand and established
link of circumstances which points with
unerring accuracy to these defendants
They have argued to you that Allen was
shot with rifle. when the testimony OF
all the witnesses is that he was shot with
pistol and the same one which shot
Jones Gill Ward shows to you that he
was a man of good character. but from
thees same witnesses it appears that Ward
was charged with killing woman and
that he was acquitted on account of the
lack of evidence. Take these defendants
up and see if the evidence does NOT fit
him. Did not r. d. Alley tell you that he
saw Ward and Rich on Branch's cotton
yard. Rich tells you that he was there
They were there for purpose. The next
time you see Ward he is going below the
railroad with Tom Bass. and Ward is

of the leading actresses of the occasions
will be delivered by Hon. Seymour d.
Thompson, of New York city. Major w.
A. Guthrie, of this city, will respond to
the address of welcome.
Monday evening the board of city
aldermen will hold a special session for
the purpose of passing on the question
of hcenseing saloons for another six
months. The general impression is that
there will be a number of applicants who
will be refused Some members of the
board have said that license will be grant
ed under the law and that the people
can vote out whiskey next fall if they do
not want it sold in Durham. The election
will be called under the Watts law. As
yet the advocates of the temperance cause
have not decided whether the election viii
be to stop the whiskey traffic entirely or
to close the saloons and open dispen-
sary.
Mr.. L. A. Carr has returned from Bal

the death of his mother. Mrs. Annie NJ.

though they are all interesting fellows.
For various reasons the ladies are not
subject to personal mention, but they are
here, beautiful and happy, and tn oeca-
sion would fail of much of its pleasure
without them.
Messrs. Wilson and Highsmith, of Dur
ham, have given excellent service in the
way of music. the former managing the
singing Messrs. Rumble and Russell, mu-
sIcians for the hotel, have been very
obliging in furnishing instrumental music.
The meeting has been warm and spir-
itual Their great purpose is to render
more spiritual the great brotherhood
which attends them. 1t is modern camp
meeting, its object being the strengthen
ing and inspiring the working hosts of
Baptists. 1t is hoped that the benefit
of the meeting will reach MANY who have
not attended, by reflection from the words
and lives of those who are here.
The feature of the work that has at
tracted the most interest is DR. Robert

Jesus DIR. Robertson is a native of our
State, and has attained distinction as a
teacher of theology His work here has
been a great inspiration and help to all.
Mr.. T. Neil Johnson's afternoon lee
lures on its culture of the young have
been well attended and many express
themselves as being much helped by them
Pastor Massee, Of the Raleigh Taber-
nacle has made a splendid impression on
the gathering.
To comment on the excellently prefaced
talks OF each speaker would be a large
task 1t is necessary to speak of them
in a general way only. as we have done.
An immense concourse is expected on
Sunday, mostly drawn from the surround
ing country.
Tents will be used to accommodate the
