norance of the Langdon famill Speeches? The first term congressma, doesn't make speeches In Washington because no one cares what he thinks except the lobbyists, whose business 1t is to provide new members with complete set of thoughts. Neither does he have opponents-he Is not consid- cred important enough by the veterans to be opposed.
 Skillfully approaching the subject which next to Carolina Langdon had been uppermost in his mind during his visit, Norton asked the senator elect on joining him If he did not believe that the entire south would benefit If the plan to establish a naval base on the gulf was successfully carried through.
 during the senatorial fight, the whole country as we'll will be the gainer," re sponoed Langdon.
 Don't you think the people whJ want Altacoolt chosen as the site have the best argumcnts?' was the visitors next question. the reply to which he anXiously awaited.
 "Yes. I do, from what I've already heard. but l haven't heard very much of what the folks who advocate other sites have to say. So until I've heard all eides and made my own examina' ton I couldn't give any one my final answer. but Altacoola seems to have the necessary qualifications"
 Senator Stevens is in favor of Alta coola," eagerly suggested Norton.
 "Yes. and that's a pretty good argu ment in its favor" responded Lang don.
 Norton now excused himself, plead ing an appointment with client at neighboring. village. Waving farewell to Carolina and Hope Georgia, who stood at a window, he rode away ''Ihe old man Is sure to be all right, he muttered. He leans toward Alta coola and believes i'll Stevens. He1 lean some more until he falls over-int' the trap. There's a fortune In sight within reach. Langdon has faith il his friends. He won't suspect z thing"
 Still another thought occurred to th' Hon. Charles Norton. Stevens elect ed Langdon out of friendship" h. chuclxled gleefully. That will be wei worth telling in Washington" ITo BE CONTINUED

"Carolina. you must not think me only your little sister now. I have seen life. Haven't I spent a week in Jackson?"
 That's enough proof. You know all about life. Fm sure, Miss Hope Georgia" smilingly remarked Norton.
 Later, rising to join Planter Langdon on the veranda, where he had gone to smoke, the congressman gazed intent ly at Carolina. You will probably forget your old friends when you en- ter the dizzy social race in Washing ton.'
 "No, Charlie 1 couldn't forget you anyhow. You will be there too. shall depend on you a great deal to take me about, unless you are too busy making speeches and fighting your opponents"

''No, no, MT. Langdon-I should say senator now, suppose. l was merely telling Randolph how some legislators conduct themselves"
 The senator elect paused momentari- ly, gazing at the congressman, who, dark visaged, tall, black haired, broad shouldered and athletic, was visibly with Randolph overheard by the fla ther.
 "No doubt 1t won't be all plain sail ing in Washington for an old fash toned man like me, but I believe in the American people and the men they send to congress" slowly spoke the planter There's Senator Stevens, for instance. He has always stood for the rights of the people. I've read all his speeches. Just why he brought about my election 1t Is hard to tell, for I've been a planter all my life except when I fought under Beauregard. 1 feel that he did 1t out of friendship, and l simply can't say how much l appre- ciate the honor 1 am indebted to you, lOO,
 Tactfully disclaiming any credit for his work, only Norton's congressional training in repression enabled him to refrain from smiling at Langdon's in nocence, his belief in Stevens sinceri- ty and his wonder over his election. Stevens, the keen, cold and resource full, who forced his officeholders to yield him parts of their government salaries; Stevens, who marketed to railway companies his influence with the department of justice; Stevens, who was a Republican in the commit tee room in Washington and a Demo crat on the platform in Mississippi; Stevens, who had consummated the deal with Martin Sanders, boss of sev- en counties, to elect Langdon because of the planters trustfulness and sim plicity of character, which should make him easy to influence and to handle in the all important matter of the gulf naval base project!
 The entry of Carolina Langdon and her younger sister, Hope Georgia, gave Norton a welcome opportunity to shift the trend of conversation

"You ladies will have a gay time in Washington" he began, after directing a particularly enthusiastic greeting to Carolina. You will be in great de- mand at all the big affairs, and I don't think you will ever want to come back to old Mississippi, forty miles from a railroad, with few chances to wear your New York gowns"
 Carolina spoke quickly, her face flushing at the thought of the new vista of life now opening. "Yes, l have always longed to be a part of the

" CITIZEN JOSH" IS sANGUINE.
Says He is Ready to Submit to the
Federal Authorities.

Columbia, Jan. 21.-There will be
no conflict between the Federal court
now in session here and the Legis-
lature over the arrest of Representa-
tive Josh Ashley on charges of
peonage. He removed that possibil-
ity by himself reporting to District
Attorney Cochran, saying he was
ready to give bond and submit to
the court.
The district attorney said he would
give way anyway to avoid conflict
or anything like dispute over the
matter. Assurances of confidence
the Representative got on the streets
and In the Capitol lobbies by friends
and acquaintances, prominent in po-
l1tical, business and professional cir
cles amounted to almost an ovation,
being the more pronounced in view
of Roosevelt's attack on Tillman.
One fellow-Representative offered to
re-introduce the Tillman resolution
In Mr.. Ashley's behalf, simply sub
stituting Ashley's name for Tillman,
so as to let it go out that the indict-
lnent was the work of Rouseveit's
agents. Mr.. Ashley has had numer-
GUS offers of attorneys services. He
appears to be not at all frightened
and says he will easily get a verdict
OF not guilty.

Taft and Roosevelt.
(Current Literature.)

(CurIenC Llterature.)
The policy of President-elect Taft
is promptly differentiating itself from
that Of President Roosevelt. This
differentiation is not at all a process
Of antagonism. Nothing that Mr..
Taft has said or done has indicated
that he is any the less loyal to the
Roosevelt policy" than he was six
months or year ago. But 1t is al
ready apparent that Mr.. Taft is not
to be mere echo of his predecessor.
He is to do something more than
stand pat" OH the policy laid down
during the past seven years. His
personality is already beginning to
impress itself upon the political stu
alton, and almost without our rec
ognizing the change a shifting of
emphasis has been effected in the
last few months that is almost start
ling. His wooing Of the South and
his inSi6tence on tariff revision are
two things that have given in the
last few weeks new direction to
the nations thought direction
not at all hostile to the Roosevelt
program, and yet markedly distinct
from it. There has been no Interrupt
tion in the drama of events. The
actors are the same. The audience
Is the same. And yet there has been
a quiet shifting of scenes, and we
find ourselves thinking and talking
of new political prospects apart en-
tirely from those that were a few
months ago engrossing the attention
OF the nat IN, and which seemed GER
tain to enSross it for years to come.
The alchemy Of Mr.. Taft's ingratiat-
ing presence, which acted in such a
pacific and effective way upon peril
Gus situations in Manila, Havana,
Colon and Toxic, has already been
at work in this country with equal
effectiveness.

KIDNAPPING ENDS IN MURDER.
Italian Dead, Another Dying, as Re-
suit of ARRAY at MiddletOwn, NY.

Middletown, N. Y, Jan. 21.-A
brutal murder, which had as it's OBJ
ject the kidnapping Of the young
bride of one of the victims, was COM
mitted just outside of this city two
nights ago by three Italians. The
victim was Finizio Gaetano, who
was instantly killed, and Scanlon
Carmino, his friend, who is dying in
local hospital from wounds inflicted
by shots from a revolver. The bodies
of both men were found stretched
across the railroad tracks near the
scene of the tragedy, where they had
been placed with the evident intent
Of hiding the crime.
Mrs. Gaetano was found tonight
by the authorities in an Italian shack
on the outskirts of the city. She was
in a serious condition, as a result of
nervous shock, exposure and ill
treatment, to which she had been
subjected. She told the authorities
that she had been taken to the shack
Immediately after the shooting and
held there, two of the men remain
ing until shortly before noon.
Gaetano was recently married in
young bride only last Monday. The
couple came direct to Middletown
and Tuesday night, in company with
CarminO, mutual friend, were walk
ing along a road about two miles
from this city. Suddenly they were
set upon by three Italians armed
with revolvers, and Gaetano and
Carmino were shot down.

Will NOT ASK FOR PARDON.
Gompers, Mitchell and Morrison De-
nounce Action of Justice Wright.

Washington, Jan. Give have
not asked and will not ask for Glenn
ency, and We hope friends will not
urge US to pursue such course. Low
ing liberty as free men do-as we do
1T cannot be difficult to appreciate
what Incarceration in prison would
mean to us. To ask pardon would
render useless all the trial and sacri-
flee which our men of labor, and our
friends in all walks of live have en-
dured, that the rights and liberties
of our people might be restored.
Such pardon would only leave
the whole case in confusion, and it
would have to be fought over again
from the beginning"
This is some of the language used
by Gompers, Mitchell and Morrison
in the current number of the Ameri-
can Federationist, in formal protest
against the action Of Justice Wright
in sentencing them to Imprisonment
for contempt of court in the Bucks
Stove and Range case on December
23d.
Samuel Gompers heads his state
ment: Judge Wright's Denial of
Free Speech and Free Press" and
he declares eve will not bate a sim
gle word nor take a letter back"
Mr.. Gompers refers to "the intem-
perate and vindictive spirit display
ed by the JUSTICE" and to 'this IT,
rade Of judicial abuse and misrepre-
sentation," in a separate statement,
but he joins with Mitchell and Morri-
son in declaring that they would not
ENTER into comp petition with the hon
orable court in the use of invectives,
rancor, or scathing denunciation,"
and that the protest is against the
Courts unprecedented and unwar-
ranted fagellation Of the cause and
of the people we have the honor to
represent"
That the trio OF labor leaders fully
understand the responsibility they
assume in making their statments is
shown by their declaration that even
though they may be held in addi-
tional contempt eve are willing to
accept the consequences. 1t may be
necessary to the preservation of the
liberties of the people that a Judge
should be disobeyed. Judges some
times usurp power and become ty-
rants. Disobedience to a tyrant is
obedience to law

Snipes Awarded $500 Damages.

Anderson, Jan. 22.-The Federal
Court, now in session in Columbia,
has awarded damages in amount of
$6,500 to w. f. Snipes in the case of
Snipes VS.. the Southern Railway. Mr..
Snipes is an Andersonian, and was
injured in a wreck in November,
1906, at Dents, on the Columbia and
Greenville division. When this case
was first called in the Federal Court
Judge Brawley rendered decision in
favor OF the defendant company, but
when carried to the Court of Appeals
1t was remanded for new trial. The
amount asked for by Mr. Snipes was
$25, 900.
