THE WOMEN OF THE
DEBATABLE LAND.

A new book by well-known Vir-
gilman should be of special interest to
persons living in this part of Virginia
1t is the women of the Debatable
Land" by Alexander Hunter, pub
lished by the Golden Publishing Com
pany, of Washington, d. c. The
purpose of the book set forth by the
author in the preface and dedication
is to immortalize the deeds of hero
ism of the women of the South who
while they did not 60 to the front IN
the awful days of the Civil War did
so much for the cause 50 dear to their
hearts and suffered not only from the
anxiety thstt must ever be the guer-
con Of the family of q sol Ter but
also from physical and material
needs without murmur.
The Detachable Land was Eau
quier county where, during the entire
war the Northern and Southern for
ces fought for mastery, and owner
ship" "Mosby's Confederacy" as it
was often called. Fairfax AMI Prince
William counties were strongly fortl-
fled by Federal forces and Culpep@r
was usually occupied by the Confed-
crates, but Fauquier was the battle
ground being the headquarters for
Mosby and his men. If human blood
cnriches soil "Mosby's Confederacy"
should be the garden spot of the
world, place where the :ead far
outnumbcrcd the living.
In all the stories Of the war that
have been written none give Il more
graphic or personal view point than
this book of MI Hunters. A most adj
mirsble back ground for the story is
given in 4 short but comprehensive
historical sketch of Colonial days and
the early people of that part OF V'r-
,rinia. Mr.. Hunter shows his lntl-
mate acoua;ntance with the classics
and with history and apart from the
local interest of the book, 1t is sure
to find Il hearty welcome every where
as delightful story.
MIR. Hunter himself was a member
of the famous Black Horse Calvary
and spent the greater part of the
winters of '63. ga and '65 in Fauqu'er,
hence the narrative has directness
and vigor that makes the scenes live
before you as you read. The constant
recurrence Of names that are house
hold words with us adds to the Inter
est of the book and the illustrations,
many Of them reproductions of old
photographs, are especially interest
ing.
Certainly all Southern soldiers
should BE- interested in the move
ment to build q monument to the
women of the Confcdcracy and the
reading of ;his book will add material
interest to the movement in the hearts
of those who were not so closely as
sociatcd with these women as Mr.
Hunter ard his comrades. but who
bclieve:; IN kesping before the eyes
of the young the enduring monuments
of heroic deeds III women as well as
those OF men.

BILLS TO MEET Crisis,
FARMERS UNION MEN IN
WASHINGTON.
Advice to Planters of South Caro-
lima Will be Given out Montiay.

Washington, Sept. 11.-Membcrs of
congress and others interested in the
production Of cotton held meetings
here tonight with Senator Hoke Smith
ana with Congressman Henry OF
Texas with reference to bills that
congress should pass to take care Of
this years cotton crop and to provide
suitable protection hereafter.
When T.. w. Dabbs OF South Caro-
lima was asked what had been done
today he said that there was nothing
OF special interest which pc wished to
say now, but that he had sent q letter
to j. Whitner Reid to be made pub
lie to all the farmers in South Caro-
lisa next Monday. Mr.. Dabbs said that
he did not care Ut this time 20 say
What it would contain.
Congressman Lever, who late this
afternoon made an unsuccessful effort
TO have the house pass his warehouse
bill, said tonight that had it not been
for the objection Of Minority Leader
Mann he would probably have got the
bill through all right AS it was, he
could do nothing more than has al
ready been accomplished.
Mr. Lever said he thought it the
right time to tell the truth about pre-
vailing conditions and that the pub
lie should be made acquainted with
the fact that much of the talk being
heard at the present time is for one Of
two purpcscs-eithcr to gain political
Eotoricty or take advantage of an OPP
portunity caused by the European war
ard profit from it financially. He said
he was prepared to tell the truth and
The whole truth, and nothing but the
truth as he saw it, no matter who
Eight suffer.
Mr.. Dabbs attended the meeting at
Congressman Henry's Office and there
discussed with others interested in
the matter the question of doing
something to give relief to the pres
ent situation. Mr.. Lever candidly said
tonight that he could not yet say what
tcengrCss would do, but he is hopeful
of passing his bill at an early date.
Minority Leader Mann, after object
ing to the Lever bill, today asked the
latter TO buy {. bale OF South Carolina
cot on for him and this will lro1n NJ H.
be done by Mr.. Lever.
