Third Mr.. Halles attempt to make the Anti-Saloon
League people responsible for the uterances Of the Pro-
hibonsts is old trick that longer fools the peo
pie They know the difference quite we'll as the ed
tor Of the Champion and they know that are in
way responsible for what very often visionary claims
of the leaders Of the third party.
The last two paragraphs in the Champion article read
follows:
''But the Anti-Saoon League showed their gross
ingratitude to Senator Orvie f. Berry in the Thirty
second District, who fathered their local option bill
in the last session, but would not indorse their
county feature They willing to accept his aid
in passing the township local option bill, but repaid
him by indorsing his opponent at the recent cleo
ton and by the basest treachery secured his defeat
''But this cheap revenge will cost them whatever
prestige they may have had in the next Legislature,
for Berry's friends will have nothing to do with
them, and all rght-thnking men will condemn the
cold-booded treachery Of the Anti-Saloon Prohib-
tonsts.''
The liquor traffic and the United Societies two
carnations which at least have hearts that beat

field they have worked together in the greatest har
mony. In politics they and lnseparable In re-
counting the victories the Secretary Of the United
Societies made the following statement in regard Mr.
Berry
In the Thirty-second District Senator Berry,
father of the local option measure went down before
onslaughts in spite of the Taft andslde.'
Now, Mr.. Champion, you and Mr.. Cermak, Secretary
of the United Societies. ought to get together and COM
pare notes before you rush into any publication It
unhinkable that the liquor traffic should support
and the United Societies fight him. or vice versa.
We shall be glad to have anyone who suspects the
AntSaoon League of treachery to Senator Berry refer
to the Senator himself Notwithstanding he defeated
by pledged to the temperance program.
We commend to the Champion Lncoln's saying that
'You can't fool all the people all the me We have
grave doubts to whether the Champion is fooing any

Lee-Whitc.

Thad D. Lee and Miss Lola
White were united in marriage at
the Methodist parsonage in this
city on Sunday morning, June Z,
by the pastor Of the Methodist
Church, Rev. w. c. Sellers.
This brief announcement en-
braces about all there was in the
proceedings accompanying the
wedding ceremony, but it gives no
definite idea of the young people
who have thus recorded their vows.
Mrs. Lee is the daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. w. L. White of this city. For
several years she has held undis'
puted right to the distinction gen
orally accorded as one of the bellies
and beautiful women for which OUT
city and county is noted. More
than that she was one of tt fy0pu-
lar young ladies of the local social
clubs, gifted IN graces and accom-
plishments.
Mr.. Lee came to Union City
some years ago from Martin. He
was first engaged as jeweler with
]. F. Lukens, afterwards with Por
ter & Radebaugh and now with
Bransford & Andrews. He is a
member of various secret orders
and in different ways associated
with public and social interests.
The young couple just embark
ing on the thoroughfare of welded
life are generally and greatly es
teemed and numerous congratula
t1ons and benedictions are extend
ed on this momentous occasion.

Dixie -dear old Dixie-by Miss
Katherine Morris. The crosses of
honor were conferred by Rev. w. c.
Sellers. His bestowal was touch
ing and beautiful. He said as he
listened to the words of Dixie from
the lips of that dear Southern girl
he could see tears IN each veterans
eyes, and as they fell they remind
ed him of pearls. His words and
manner were very impressive. The
rain. falling as it did in torrents
prevented a very large crowd and
dinner on the ground at the City
Park. Instead small and appre-
ciative audience listened to the pro-
gramme at the opera house and an
elegant dinner was served in the
courthouse and the day declared BY
everyone present to be a success.
