DEMOCRATIC LEADBHSHEP IN SENATE STELL UNDETERMINED ; - > r*" ' . "W&th the coming of Carter Glass as Senator from Virginia at an early date it was thought that the deadlock in the Underwood-Hitchcock contest ft>r Democratic leadership in the Senate would be broken. It now app&ars, however, that the vote of Senator Glass will be offset by that of Senator Johnson of South Dakota. At the recent Democratic caucus held for the purpose of choosing a Senate leader, Senators Underwood and Hitchcock each received 19 votes "* '* - l-~i-~ Tc'ifhntit nc ana ine caucus uuivc u^> >. ?? ? complishing its purpose. Neither of the two candidates voted at the caucus and four Senators were absent " and paired, thus accounting for 44 votes. Senator Johnson of South Dakota was absent from the caucus J and not paired, and Senator Hoke j Smith, of Georgia, refrained from voting, saying that he was so fond of both candidates that he could not bring himself to vote for either in preference to the other. It is said that Senator Glass will vote for Underwood and that Senator Johnson will favor Hitchcock, and it thus appears that unless Senator Hoke Smith decides to vote or some other Senator changes his vote the deadlock may continue indefinitely. *X', " Since Senator Hitchcock is now the acting" leader, there is little in the situation of a nature likely to worry him. Special importance attaches to the matter, however, because of the fact that the personality of the Demfjocratic leader is likely to have a strong bearing upon the peace treaty controversy. Senator Hitchcock seems to have about exhausted his resources as a. leader without securing ratification. On the other hand there are indications that with Senator Underwood as Democratic leader, the atti_ tude of the Republican Senators re ?' * garding compromise reservations, as A FAMILY MEDICINE wmmmmm? fm Her Ho&er^s Home, Sayi Thii Georgia Lady, Regarding BlackDraught Relief From Headache, Chills, Etc* Ringgold, Ga.? Mrs. Chas. Gaston, of this place, writes: "I am s user of Thedford's Black-Draught; in fact. It was one of our family medicines. Also in my mother's home, when I was a child. "When any of us children complained of headache, usually ~ T caused "by constipation, she gave us a dose of Black-Draught, which wouM .> rectify the trouble. Often in the Spring, we would have malaria and chills, or troubles of this kind, we would take Black-Draught pretty regular until the liver acted well, and wo would soon be up and around gain. We would not be without it, for It certainly has saved us lots of doctor hills. Just a dose of BlackDraught wheh not so well saves a lot of days in bed." Thedford's Black-Draught has been In use for many years in the treatment of stomach, liver and bowel troubles, and the popularity which it now enjoys is proof of its merit If your liver is not doing its duty, . you will suffer from such disagreeable symptoms as headache, biliousness, constipation, indigestion, etc., and unless something is done, serious trouble may result Thedford's Black-Draught has been found a valuable remedy for these troubles.

At present the weather here i is delightful and the Leesville contin- I v I gent is enjoying it to the fullest ex- j tent. j Clearing land, planting groves of j orange and grapefruit, trees is the | order of the day with many, while | others are planting potatoes, water- j melons and vegetables of all kinds. | Cotton is a back number here. De ! Soto City is not built, but admirably located. Its citizenship is being made up of people from many sections of the United States. There is no better * time than now for any one who wants to get in on the ground floor to buy land here. The price of lands have advanced fifty per cent within the last year. Improved lands are very high, so the most people are buying raw lands and planning to have them cleared and planted as soon as they can get labor. Some wonderful yields of fruit are recorded.
