Anderson Mail Comments 'on Poor
Memorial Il Day Attendance.

Strange things have come to pass
down in the ancient, town of York
stronghold Of patriotism in the old
days when dark clouds hung: low and
threatening over the Palmetto. State.
The town which we associate with the
Ku Klux Klan, g the Red Shirts and
other movements for the preservation
of the supremacy of the white race
and whose sons and daughters have
written their name. indelibly on some
OF the most. illustrious pages Of South
Carolina hfstory--has fallen on strange
ways, ways which, according to re-
port, sound. not, tall like the York
we have known these many years.
We refer to the attendance at Me-
mortal Day services held in that good
town last Monday to render homage
to the immortal dead. Of the World
War. The Yorkville Enquirer carries
this report Of the attendance at the
services: ,,--.,r.o
Only, a handful Of people attended
the first officiaE memorial exercises
for American Legion men held in the
court house in Yorkyille yesterday af-
ternoon followed by decoration of the
graves Of the three World War Veter-
ans, Sergeants William Ganson Will
liams, J.. Bratton Lowry and Private
Mech Stewart who rne buried in Rose
Hill cemetery. People were apparent
ly too busy or a1'least too unconcern-
ed to hear q word said for the three.
fellows who gave their ALL, Officers Of
local patriotic organizations who are
accustomed to -spouting patriotism and
waving the flag on different occasions
were not present yesterday. Only one
minister was 'trere-1ithe speaker of the
occasion. One would have been led to
think that people generally feel that it
isn't worth while to remember the
dead soldiers now that the war is
over. But the three fellows sleeping
In Rose Hill didn't mind
With half hundEed people perhaps
in attendance the first American Le-
gion Memorial day was observed here
yesterday with an address by Rev. j..
L. Oates, former clerk Of Exemption
Board No. 2 for York county as the
feature of the occasion.
We could earnestly wish we had
never read the abovei excerpt from the
ENQUIRER. Wishing to appear in no
"holier than -tnou" attitude, we can
not refrain from expressing an added
feeling OF pride at the magnificent tri-
butte rendered by the people Of Ander-
son city and county last Monday to
the immortal. dead who have pitched
their camp on flames eternal camp
ing ground" when thousands lined the
streets from uptown to Silver Creek
cemetery to witness the parade OF
World War veterans and other thous-
ands congregated at the cemetery to
look on at the exercises and join with
O. grateful andi q patriotic people In
rendering homage about little white
cross set up in the ground and crown
ed with the laurel wreath of the VIC
tor. ;c''Es.,. ="
Surely the sorry exhibition at York
last Monday cannot be representative
of the people Of that good town and
county. Surely they. have not forgot
ten. Something must have been re-
sponsible for. the picture as painted
by the Enquirer. Perhaps the bulk
of the people did. not know about the
services, and, not knowing, were not
on hand.-Anderson Daily Mail.

ANDERSON ATTACKS
DISTRICT ATTORNEYS
Dry Leader Accuses Them OF
TRYING TO Interfere With
State Enforcement.

William III. Anderson. State Superin-
tendent OF the Anti-Saioon League. is
sued a letter yesterday In which ho
criticised severely the District Attor-
ney's of the fve counties in New Ynr:>
city He accused them OF deliberately
trying TO interfere with the working OF
the State enforcement act because Of
their objection to the new bill.
Chief Assistant District Attorney Joa5
III. Banton of Nav York county, when
Mr. .nderson's letter was shown TO him.
explained that the District Attorneys
felt the bill as it stands would nullify the
law on account OF requiring violation
cases TO be tried BY jury.
This is the third attempt of the Legfs-
lature to enforce such law, he said,
and previous efforts have failed conn
pletely. The simple proceeding, Mr..
Banton thought. would BE- TO take COM
plants to the Magistrates courts for o
hearing AMI then try them in Special
Sessions.
In defence OF the City Magistrates.
whom Mr.. Anderson attacked as Tam
many men "who heard their Masters
voice" Mr.. Banton said:
sFor three years | have been. review
ine the work OF the City Magistrates,
and / must say that the circular OF Mr..
Anderson is gross libel on an honest.
efficient. hard working set of public SER
wants The Magistrates Of New York
city as whole would DO credit to any
bench,
Aside from Mr.. Anderson's ignorance
as to the duties Of the District Attpr-
neys there Is little else TO speak or In
his letter The District Attorneys have
nothing TO do with sentences. and the
judges would justly resent any inter
ference in their exclusive prerogative."
