For the last half century we
have stormed the citadel of prejudice
al tremendous expense of time,
money and energy, and might even
say life, for many good women have
given their all in this cause. How
much longer will our men force us
TO keep this standing su uffragc orlny
in ordcr 10 gain the rights that
should have bcan ours according To
an laws OF Justice ever sirGe men
We're Grartcd them" -...
But until our object is accom-
plished this army will remain in
tact and grow from day 10 day until
at last right shall prevail and until
our country Is no longer jest among
progressive nations for it's incon-
sistency and unjust attitude towards
its women.
"There is no such thing as
half democracy. We must be one or
the other, and the time has come to
choose. Which shall it be?
I'VE trust the casualties of this
army will not be sex antagOniSm,
party antagonism. bitterness, resent
iHent, contempt, hate and other
things which grow from long stand
ing grievances and rank injustices
practiced on a helpless people.
This is not said in spirit of
threat, but is only a warming, and
for the good of all parties concerned
hope the men Of South Carolina
will take heed and demand of their
representatives fair play for the
women of this State at least.
Every cloud has its silver lining,
and even in our defeat we have the
consolation Of having for the first
time in the history of this proud
old State representative in the
Senate who has the courage Of his
convictions and who is brave enough
tc stand out in the open and champ
ion the cause Of womanhood. This
man Is the Hon. w. p. Pollock. Of
Cheraw. to whom the women owe un-
dying gratitude for his splendid ex-
ample and fearless stand"

"NOW THAT IT'S ALL OVER"
Greenwood Journal.)

The following poem, first printed
in the Stars and Stripes, was sent
TO Mrs. w. p. Dean by her son,
Willie Pierce Dean. The author, he
stated, was friend of his, now in
France.
Did you ever hike million miles.
And carry Il ton on your back,
And blister your heels and your
shoulders, too,
IN the rain, or the snow, or the mud,
perhaps,
In the smothering heat, or the cold?
If you have, why, then, you're a
buddy Of ours,
And we welcome you into our fold
Did you ever eat with your plate in
your lap,
With your cup On the ground at
your side,
While cooties and bugs of species
Untold
Danced fox-trots over your hide?
did you ever sleep in tent so small
That your head and your feet played
tag?
Then shake, old man, you're Il pnl
of ours,
For you've followed the same old
flag.
Did you ever stand in front line
trench,
With Fritzie a few feet away,
With ferries and Minnies a-whistling
around,
And gas coming over all day?
With "\3 Man. Land" a sea of steel,
And the tempest G. bdrsting she,;'
Then, come in, old man, and toast
your shins,
For we're all just back from hell.

trains were forced to abandon traffic
and passengers We're taken from sew

BY the following morning more
than eighteen inches OF snow covered

wind, which was blowing at a twenty.
mile gale, with the extremely low tenn.
perature made i. almost impossible
for business to continue,
On the day of the 18th not half of
the business people of the city were
at their offices and stores. It was re-
ported that practically no customers
ha dyisited their places of business
during the day.
TaXis were not running and there
was absolutely no way to get around
except to walk, wading drifts almost
waist deep.
Traffic was suspended on the inter
urban lines about noon on the I'm
and the 3:o5 train on the Burlington
was the last 10 pass through Ottawa
on this line for several days.
The coal shortage was at its height
and many families were let without
means for keeping warm Coal wag
ons were the only vehicles which
were seen on the streets, even the
grocery men having to stop making
deliveries.
Today the air was balmy and
sprinslike, and the mercury stood at

streets were covered with muddy
