RICHMOND WAS
ENDORSED FOR
RESERVE BANK

----------o----------
RESOLUTIONS WERE UNANI-
MOUSLY ADOPTED AT MEET-
ING YESTERDAY

----------o----------
MR. M.R. ANSEL CONVEY
ACTION TO COMMITTEE

--------o--------
Richmond Visitors Arrived in Green-
ville Yesterday Afternoon and Af-
ter Presenting Argument For
Virginia City For the Regional
Reserve Bank For This Section,
Chamber of Commerce and Green-
ville Clearing House Association
Passed Resolution Emphatically
Endorsing Richmond For the
Bank.

----------o----------
As was generally expected, the
Greenville Chamber of Commerce
yesterday afternoon unanimously
endorsed Richmond, Virginia, as the
point for the location of the region-
al reserve bank which shall serve
this section. Resolutions carrying
this endorsement were adopted en-
thusiastically by a large gathering
of the officers and members of the
Chamber yesterday afternoon, when
the Richmond delegates presented
the claims of their city.

Mr. M. F. Ansel, former governor
of South Carolina, was appointed to
meet the organization committee in
Washington on the 15th, and present
the action of the Greenville bankers
and business men supporting Rich-
mond. In addition to the action of
the Chambers of Commerce, similar
resolutions were adopted by the
Greenville Clearing House associa-
tion.

The Richmond visitors included W.
T. Dabney, business manager of the
Richmond Chamber of Commerce,
John M. Miller, Jr., vice president
of the First National bank; Horace
L. Smith, manager of the manufac-
turers' exhibit of Richmond; and T.
B. McAdams, a prominent Rich-
mond banker. In addition to the lo-
cal business men and bankers, and
the Richmond citizens, there were a
number of visitors from Anderson
and other points in this immediate
section.

Among the out-of-town bankers
and business men present at the
meeting were Mayor Lee G. Holle-
man, of Anderson; Mr. B. F. Maul-
din of Anderson; Mr. James P. Gos-
wold, of Piedmont; Mr. B. B. Gos-
sett, of Anderson and others.

Visit Other Cities.

The visitors were the guests of
honor at a reception at Poinsett Club
last night, and made the acquaint-
ance of many local business men.
They spent the night in Greenville,
leaving this morning for Spartan-
burg, from which city they will go
to Columbia. They will leave Co-
lumbia Wednesday morning, for
Charleston, and will thereafter visit
Sumter, Florence, Wilmington, and
Fayetteville, returning to Richmnd
Saturday afternoon.

The meeting yesterday afternoon
was presided over by Mr. J. E. Sir-
rine, president of the Chamber of
Commerce. The visitors were wel-
comed by Mr. C. B. Martin, Mayor
Pro Tem, and Dr. David M. Ramsay,
president of the Greenville Female
College. Each member of the visit-
ing delegation addressed the assem-
bly, setting for the reasons why
Richmond should be the point for
the regional reserve bank for this
section.

Adopted Resolutions.

Greenville citizens' minds were
practically made up already, and a
resolution introduced by Mr. P. F.
Beattie, endorsing Richmond, was
unanimously adopted by the Cham-
ber, being seconded by Messrs. J. W.
Norwood and E. A. Smyth. This
rendition reads as follows:
Whereas the city of Richmond,

[article continues on column 2]

Va., is being considered by the Unit-
ed States government as a proper
place for the location of a federal
reserve bank, and whereas it is
deemed a matter of vital importance
to the banking and manufacturing
and commercial interests of the
state that South Carolina should be
placed in a federal reserve district,
the federal reserve bank of which is
located to the north of this state and
near the money centers; and where-
as the city of Richmond, Va., has al-
ways shown herself friendly to South
Carolina in the matter of invest-
ments, her capitalists being familiar
with conditions existing in this state;
now be it resolved by the chamber
of commerce, of Greenville, S. C.,
that we hereby endorse the city of
Richmond as a locational for a feder-
al reserve bank and that we urge
upon our senators and represent-
atives in congress that they use every
effort to have South Carolina placed
in a federal reserve district the fed-
eral reserve bank of which is located
in the city of Richmond, Va.

Be it further resolved that a copy
of these resolutions be forwarded to
the organization committee, and that
Ex-Governor Martin F. Ansel be ap-
pointed to represent this body and
express its will to the organization
committee.

Clearing House Association.

Following is the resolution adopt-
ed by the Greenville Clearing House
association, offered by Mr. A. L.
Mills.

Whereas through many years of
large and mutually profitable deal-
ings pleasant and satisfactory busi-
ness relations have become estab-
lished between the banks and manu-
facturers of this section and the
banks of Richmond, Va., and where-
as a number of our banks will, at an
early date make application for
membership in the federal reserve
association, and

Whereas we believe that it is to
the best interests of the new system
and to our section that a federal re-
serve bank serving our territory
should be located in the city which
has done more than any other city
in the south toward the development
of this section,

Therefore be it resolved:

First, That the members of the
Greenville Clearing House Associa-
tion hereby strongly urge the or-
ganization committee to locate the
federal reserve bank which will serve
this section of Richmond, Va.

Second, That we join with the
Greenville chamber of commerce
in sending Ex-Governor Martin F. An-
sel as a representative, who will
voice our wishes, at the hearing
which will take place on January
15th, in Washington, in urging the
reserve bank organization commit-
tee to locate on of the federal re-
serve banks in the city of Richmond.

Third, That Copies of these resolu-
tions be mailed to the members of
the reserve banks organization com-
mittee and to the congressmen and
senators from this tate and from
North Carolina.

GLASS OF SALTS
CLEANS KIDNEYS

----------o----------
Take a Glass of Salts If Your Back
Hurts or Bladder Bothers —
Meat Forms Uric Acid.

----------o----------
If you must have your meat every
day eat it, but flush your kidneys
with salts occassionally, says a noted
authority, who tells us that meat
forms uric acid which almost par-
alyses the kidneys in their efforts to
expel it from the blood. They be-
come sluggish and weaken, then you
suffer with a dull misery in the kid-
ney region, sharp pains in the back
or sick headache, dizziness, your
stomach churns, tongue is coated and
when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine gets
cloudy, full of sediment, the channels
often get sore and irritated, obliging
you to seek relief two or three times
during the night.

To neutralize these irritating
acids, to cleanse the kidneys and
flush off the body's urinous waste get
four ounces of Jad Salts from any
pharmacy here, take a tablespoonful
in a glass of water before breakfast
for a few days and your kidneys will
then act fine. This famous salts is
made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and has been used for generations
to flush and stimulate sluggish kid-
neys, also to neutralize the acids in
urine so it no longer irritates, thus

AFTER DISMISSAL
OF ONE CASE, MAN
WAS RE-ARRESTED

----------o----------
After the dismissal of his case by
Magistrate Stradley at a prelimi-
nary hearing today, J. H. Holcombe,
white, who was charged with assault
of the Mills mill village, was re-ar-
rested on another warrant sworn out
by the woman, this time accusing
Holcombe of assault and battery of a
high and aggravated nature and
breach of the peace. Holcombe gave
bond in the sum of $400 for his ap-
pearance.

The first case against Holcombe
was dismissed on the ground of in-
sufficient evidence, that the testi-
mony of the worman was not corrab-
orated by the other witnesses in the
case and that the chain of circum-
stances was broken and incompleete.
Three men, who were in the woman's
house at the time of the alleged inci-
dent, were examined as witnesses.

"The evidence tended to show that
some of the persons in the crowd
were intoxicated and that Defendant
Holcombe drew a stove poker and
threatened to strike the woman, but
other than this there was no evidence
to show that he touched the woman,"
said today Magistrate Stradley in
referring to his decision.

Magistrate Stradley issued a new
warrant for Holcombe, charging him
with assault and battery, etc.

Home For The Holidays

"I suppose you are enjoying your
daughter's visit while she is at home
for the holidays?" "I am, but I'm
afraid her father isn't. Every time
he says 'I done it' he looks at her as
scared as if he had [blurry] some-
body and been caught at it."—Chic-
ago Record Herald.

DON'T TRIFLE WITH COUGHS OR COLDS.
Many Have Filled Consumptive Graves Because They Neglected
a Cough or Cold.

You never know how soon a cold
will become a serious malady. It
may be in the head to-day, in the
lungs to-morrow and the next day
you may be fighting deadly pneumo-
nia for your life. It's much the same
with a cough. Inflamed and cough-
worn throat and lungs offer the best
chance to consumption germs to be-
gin their murderous work. There's
only one way to prevent these deadly
diseases getting a hold on you. As
soon as a cough or cold attacks you,
take Dr. King's New Discovery until
you are entirely cured. Sometimes a
day or two will do the business, sav-
ing you suffering and a doctor's bill.
Thousands of cures like these below
prove its wonderful powere to cure
coughs and colds.

"I feel sure it's a Godsend to hu-
manity," writes Mrs. Effie Morton,

[continues on column 4, top section]

Columbia, Mo, "for I believe I
would have consumption to-day, if I
had not used this great remedy."

"I take great pleasure in recom-
mending your Dr. King's New Dis-
covery for the benefit of suffering
humanity. It's a thoroughly reliable
remedy for all coughs, croup and
lung troubles. We have used it in
our family for fourteen years with
the best results. It saved my mother
when two doctors gave her up. She
had a very severe case of pneumonia
and was in bed seven weeks and part
of the time 'out of her mind' so
that she did not know me. I told
father to get me two 50c bottles of
Dr. King's New Discovery, which
he did, and on taking it she soon
began to improve, and four bottles
cured her entirely. You may pub-
lish this if you wish and I will an-
swer all inquiries, with postage en-
closed for reply.

"Yours respectfully,
"Wm. Cogger."

munity and urged them to look well
to the matters that will come to
their attention.

CORONOR INVESTIGATES
KILLING OF NEGRO BOY

----------o----------
That John Hill came to his death
yesterday afternoon as the result of
pistol shot wounds inflicted by Gary
Wadley, and that Wister Carson is
an accessory to the shooting, is in
substance the verdict returned today
by the coroner's jury which investi-
gated the circumstances surrounding
the tragedy. The shooting occurred
in the Sterling neighborhood, nine
miles from Greenville. John Hill
Gary Wadley and Wister Carson are
all negro boys, ranging in age from
fourteen to twenty-one.

The victim was fourteen years old,
and was shot on the first day of his
school career. He was killed during
the recess hour, when the three boys
had wandered off from the school
and were frolicking. Wadley and
Carson surrendered to Sheriff Rec-
tor, after the shooting, and insisted
that the pistol was discharged acci-
dentally.
