The entry of Carolina Langdon and
her younger sister. Hope Georgia. gave
Norton 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 don't
think you will ever want to come back
to old Mississippi, forty miles from Il
railroad. with few chances to wear
your New York gowns"

Haines turned quickly, just In time
to bump into tall. slender young

able to discover is that Stevens said

nonpartisan, straight out from the

his head in disgust. You know these

IN buoyant spirit the Hon. Charlea
Norton rode up the bride path
leading through the txlngdon plan
4 tation to the old antehcllum home
stead which, on shaded knoll over
looked the winding waters Of the Pearl
river. No finer prospect was to be had
in all Mississippi than greeted the eye
from the wide southwest porch. where
On warm evenings the Langdons and
their. frequent guests gathered to dine
or to watch the golden splendor Of the
dying sun.
The Langdon family had long been
q power in the south. Its sons fought
under Andrew Jackson Mt New Or
leans. under Zachary Taylor in the
war with Mexico, and in the civil war
men of that name left their blood on
the fields Of Antietam. Shiloh, the
Wilderness and Gettysburg But this
family of fighting men, OF unsclfish
patriots, had also marked influence in
the ways of peace. as real patriots
should. Generations OF Langdons had
taken deepest pride in developing the
hundreds of acres of cotton land,
whose thousands of four foot rows
planted each April spread open the
Burlington weekly free press. [volume] (Burlington, Vt.) 1866-1928, 1909-04-29

tilvery lined bolls In July and August,
and the ripened cotton fiber, pure
white beneath the sun, gave from a
distance the picture OF an expanse Of
driven snow.
The Hon. Charles Norton had reason
Tor feeling well pleased with the world
as he fastened his bay Virginia hunter
steps Of the mansion, which was a
characteristic survivor Of the "old
south" the south of ailded romance
and Of gripping tragedy. Now in this
second year Of his first term as con
gresham and a promising member Of
the younger set of southern lawyers,
he had just taken active part in Sc
curing the election Of Colonel William
H. Langdon, present head Of the fami-
", to the United States senate, though
the ultimate action of the legislature
had been really brought about by a
lifelong friend Of Colonel Langdon. tho
senior senator from the state, James
Stevens who had not hesitated to fiat
ter Norton and use him as cats paw.
This use the Hon. Charles Norton
seemed to consider an honor of large
propositions. Not every first term
congressman can hope for intimacy
with senator. Norton believed that
bis work for Langdon would win him
the family's gratitude and thus further
his ambition to marry Carolina, the
Planters Oldest daughter, whose beau
" made her the recipient Of many at
lentions.
A complacent CLEAN shone in Nor
tons eyes MS they swept over the fer
tile acres of the plantation. He

most folks don't know this because
their own virtues pop up and blind 'em
when they look at somebody else"
At the reunions Of his old war COM
rades Langdon was always depended
on to describe once again how the
Third Mississippi charged at Craw-
louisville and defeated the Eighth Hi
nois. But the stirring events Of the
past had served to increase the plant
ers fondness for his home life and his
children, whose mother had died years
before. At times he regretted that his
unexpected political duties would take
him away from the old plantation even
though the enthusiastic approval Of
Carolina and Hope Georgia proved con-
siderable compensation.
Although not sworn in as senator,
Colonel Langdon's political duties were
already pressing. A few days after
Congressman Norton's visit he sat In
his library comforting with several
prominent citizens Of his county re-
gardinG a plan to ask congress to app
propriate money to drcdge a portion
of the channel of the Pearl river,
which would greatly aid large Sec
ton of the state.
During the deliberations the name
Of Martin Sanders was announced by
rous negro bodyguard, who boosted
that he "wuz brung up by Cunel Marse
Langdon, sub. n nghtin' Mississippi
cunel sub, sence long bcfo' de wah
and way befo' dat. sub
"Show Mr.. Sanders right in COM
manded Colonel Lansdon.
Good day, senator" spoke Sanders,
the boss Of seven counties, as he en-
tered. CHANGING around the room. he
continued, bending toward the colo
mel and muffling his now whispering
voice with his hand: 81 want to speak
to you alone. I'm here on politics"
That's all right, but these gentle
men here are my friends and constltu-
ents,' was the reply in no uncertain
voice. when I talk politics they
have perfect right to hear what l,
as their senator, say. Out with 1t, Mr..
Sanders"
AS Sanders was introduced to the
members Of the conference he grew
red in the face and stared Mt Langdon
amazed. At last he had discovered
something new in politics. Say" he
finally blurted. when / talk business
T. .
"Are you in politics as a busness?"
quickly spoke Colonel Langdon.
"Wby-I-er--no, Of course not" the
visitor stammered. ~ am in politics
