Special to The State reports Senator Tillman’s August campus visit, where he urged support for stricter dispensary enforcement and rejected personal ambition in favor of public good. The event featured sharp exchanges on prohibition, with McSweeney, Hoyt, and Gary allies defending or attacking positions as Tillman pressed for elected leaders to uphold liquor laws.
Rev. J H Thacker of Oswego appeals to the Greenville readers to resist Ben Tillman and the push for a state liquor dispensary. He denounces alleged secret alliances between ministers and liquor interests, warns of political coercion, and urges perseverance in faith despite threats and accusations. The letter frames a moral crisis and defends ministers who refuse to bow to dispensary pressure.
