CHAPTER II.
THE WARS OF PEACE.

"nIG BILL" LANGDON was the
* term by which the new sena-
tor from Mississippi had been
- affectionately known to his in
Inmates for years. He carried his 23c
pounds with ease. bespeaking great
muscular power in spite Of his gray
hairs His rugged courage, unswerv
ing honesty and ready belief in his
friends won him loyal following.
some of whom frequently repeated
what was known as bill Langdon's
Golden Rule"
There never was a man yet who
didn't have some good in him, but
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
er's 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 plan to ask congress to APP
propriate money to dredge 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
Jackson, the coloneps gravely deco

"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 muff1ing 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 constitu-
ents," was the reply in no uncertain
voice. when / talk politics they
have perfect right to hear what |,
as their senator, say. Out with it, Mr.
Sanders"
AS Sanders was introduced to the
members of the conference he grew
red in the face and stared at Langdon
amazed. At last he had discovered
something new in politics. Say" he
finally blurted "when l talk business

"Are you in politics as a business?r
quickly spoke Colonel Langdon.
'Why-I-er-no, of course not" the
visitor stammered. II am in politics

mo, no. Mr.. Langdon--I should say

telling Randolph how some Legislators
conduct themselves
The senator elect paused momentari-
ly, gazing at the congressman. who
dark yisaged, tall. black haired, broad
shouldered and athletic. was visiby
uneasy at having his conversation
with Randolph overheard by the ia
Their.
mo doubt it won't be all plain sail

Toned man like me. but believe in the
American people and the men they

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 it is hard to tell, for I've
been planter all my life except when
/ fought under Beauregard | feel
that he did it out of friendship, and
simply can't say how much l appre-
ciate the honor am indebted to you,
too, congressman"
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
;a1d orfc, of
salaries; Stevens, who marketed to
railway companies his influence with
the department of justice; Stevens,
who was Republican in the commit
tee room in Washington and Demo
crat on the platform in Mississippi.

deal with Martin Sanders, boss of sew.
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 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 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. Eyes.

Carolina, you must not think me

seen life. Haven't spent a week in
Jackson?
That's enough proof. You know
all about life, FIN 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
" at Carolina. You will probably
forget your old friends when you en-
ter the dizzy social race in Washing
TOM
'sNo, Charlie, couldn't forget you
anyhow You viii 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"
Again it was Norton's turn to be
inwardly amused at the political ig-
norance of the Langdon family.
Speeches? The first term congressman
doesn't make speeches in Washington
because no one cares what he thinks
except the lobbyists, whose business
it is to provide new members with a
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 IL he did not believe
that the entire south would benefit if
the plan to establish naval base on
the gulf was successfully carried
through.
'sMost certainly do, and, as said
during the senatorial fight, the whole
country as well will be the gamer" re-
sponded Langdon.
Don't you think the people who
want Altacoola chosen as the site have
the best argumentsY' was the visitors
next question, the reply to which he
Rnxiously awaited.
