WORKING AT THEIR TRADE.



The democrats are making another
pork barrel. They are going TO try
TO get 4, thru the new session OF con-
gress. After March 4 their majorities
vii! be so small that they can not
count on getting such things thru.
They want to complete the Job before
that time. They want to get for their
districts, especially In the south. what
they can. We are assured that the
president will not stand with them, for
he is alarmed at the growing depletion
Of the national treasury. Well he may
be. in spite Of the war taxes. The war
taxes were levied to take care OF a
profligate excess in appropriations. II
is strange that the democrats In con-
gress can not see the frightful condi-
ton in which they have worked the
country already.

A SIGN OF VICTORY.

ing strong endorsement to the talk Of
George Cosson for governor in 1916.
The Argo- Gazette knows Cosson. 1t is
too soon TO definitely launch can

kindly to the Cosson talk. Dave Brant
seems to invite the Cosson candidacy.
II, as we suspect. Dave thinks Cosson
can be defeated on the liberal" issue.
1t is cure sign Of victory for the at
torney general Since the memory OF
politician runneth not to the contrary.
Dave has invariably put himself on the
losing side Of every fight.

DIR Johnson has succeeded in getting
Madame Schumann. Heink, the great

cert here on the night of February
"a.
On the morning after our arrival
at Winthrop we were all feeling
rather blue and home-sick, after
having spent such a pleasant Christ
mas vacation at our respective
homes, but the warm welcome given
to us by DR. johnson, when we as
sembled at chapel, made US all feel
glad to be back.
The student body was represented
at the Kansas City Student Volun-
teer association by six of our girls
and their chaperon, Miss Pearle
McCrary, who is the General Secre-
tary of the Y W CA, at Winthrop.
The number of poor reports made
during the first term of this school
wear was smaller than it has ever
been in the history of the college.
Out of 80 only 81 poor reports
were made.
On account of being exposed to
smallpox while visiting in Florence
during the Christmas holidays, Miss
Hannah Plowden had to go home
last Wednesday. We hope that she
will be with us again in very short
while. VI d.

CONGRESSMAN RAGsDALE SICK.
Was Operated On Last Week AT
FIorence--Is Doing Well.

Florence, January o. Congress
man J Willard Ragsdale, who was
operated on for gall-stones Thurs
day afternoon, is now doing well.
He is at the hospital, where the op-
Grafton was performed. His ply
sician expects his early recovery.
Mr. Ragsdale was seized with a
very painful attack of what was sup
posed to be acute indigestion on
Saturday before Christmas. He has
not been we'll since that time. He
came home from his duties in Wash
ington on Christmas day and had
another attack on the night after
Christmas. He has been confined
to his bed since Monday afternoon,
having suffered a great deal until
the operation. He was in his office
for while on Monday afternoon,
but was too sick to attend to busi-
ness. He was taken to the infirm.
ary on Thursday afternoon and op-
Grated on late in the afternoon.
Mr. Ragsdale has received numer-
Gus kilograms and letters from his
Congressional and other friends ex-
pressing hope for speedy recovery
His physician today issued the fol-
lowing statement:
Mr. Ragsdale was operated on
Thursday afternoon and a large
number of gallstones removed. A
pancreatitis also existed. His pres
ent condition is favorable, temper
ature and pulse being normal, and
the indications are that his con-
valescence will be uninterruptedT
Mr. Ragsdale has secured govern
ment submarines to visit George
town and during the early part of
next week fiotilla is expected to
arrive there. Mr. Ragsdale was to
have been there and is sorry rot to
be able to share in the warm well
come the "jackies" will receive on
their visit.

Mr. LUTHER AMBROSE WEEDS.
Former Georgetown Boy Marries
Williamsburg Lady.

Mr. Luther R Ambrose, who for
merly lived in Georgetown, but who
moved to Conway several years ago
to accept the position of Chief OF
Police of that town, was married last
Sunday. We take the following
from the Conway Field:
"A wedding of much interest to
the friends of the contracting par
ties was that of Mr. L R Ambrose
of Conway to Miss Minnie Louella
Plexico, daughter of Mr. and Mrs }
N Plexico of Charon, Williamsburg
county. The ceremony was per-
formed at the home of Judge OF
Probate Brockinton, of Williams
burg county, the officiating notary
public, Sunday afternoon at 4:3o
o'clock. The bride and the groom
left on the evening train for Conway
and are at home to their friends on
Sixth avenue.
THE bride is quite well known in
this county, where she taught school
about two years ago. She is one of
Charon's most popular young ladies
and numbers her friends by the
score. The groom is the efficient
Chief of Police of Conway, which
position he has held in most cred
liable manner for the past four
years. The Field offers congratula-
tions to the young couple and hopes
that the flowers of perennial youth
may ever bloom in their pathway.

SPENT q YEARS
IN DEATH VALLEY
n. n. M'vAUGHAEN RETURNS TO
BAKERSFIELD HOME TO FIND
THINGS CHANGED

Los ANGELES, March 17.-TIenry
H. MeVaughaen has returned to his
Bakersfield home after twenty-five
years in Death Valley. where for all
that time he has been out of touch
with civilization The world around
him, which has consisted of sandy
waste, hills and such reptiles and
animals as Death Valley provides,
has stood still, the world he left has
gone ahead faster in the twenty-five
years in a material way than 1t had
in a century before.
Upon arriving McVaughaen found
how far behind the procession he
had been left He walked around
town to look up his old friends. He
used to be the village blacksmith
and knew nearly every one.
He thought at first he recognized a
white horse he used to shoe and
went up to 1t with pleasure. but upon
coming closer he found it had black
mark above the left eye He went
along disconsolately.
Soon the great changes interested
rather than depressed him. He ex-
perienced the. sensation, despite his
rs years and % of them out of the
