VOTE TIBET "THE ROOF OF THE WORLD" Interesting Facts About a Land of Mystery-Travelers Bring \ Back Harrowing Stories. - tSouthern Missionary News Bureau.) In. the very heart of Asia, shut in by the two highest mountain ranges on the globe?the Kwen-iun and the Himalayas?lies Tibet, "the roof of the world." Its geographical isolalation, the absence of means of conveyance, the dizzy and all but impassable heights that wall it round, have made of the country a hermit nation, practically unknown to the rest of the world. Even those who for lo>e of adventures or love of huamnity have braved the difficulties of travel have been confronted with a degree of religious tolerance and fanaticism that made explorations practically impossible. No westerner, on pain of death, was permitted even to look upon Lhasa, the religious capital. The few daring travelers who, taking their lives in their hands, sought in disguise to reach the sacred city, came baclc baffled and defeated, with harro.wing stories of hardship and pern. Among the first to ponotarte this -closed land were missionaries, always the pioneers of exploration. Not to . speak of the journey of Odoric, the Apostle of Tartary, in 1.1)30, two Catholic fathers reached Lhasa in 1845, only to be arrested and sent to Canton. Since that time attempts to oMn Tibet to the gospel have been nprneifcuA'and, indeed, constant. The Moravian brethren, the China Inland Mission, the Christian and Missionary Alliance, the Foreign Christian Missionary Society, and a number of Scotch and English societies are strong those that have laid seige to fee country in the name of Christ. \ |S ;; v- x l e administration of ( They represent the < k so well begun dur ken | feel ?

FOR MA] While no station has yet found footing on swictiy Tibetan soil, yet a cordon of missionary posts, two thou sarul nulos long, has been drawn i around the country. Here the missionaries are working chiefly among Tibetan people. They have prepare* ( Tibetan grammars and dictionar's: and have published the new testament in the language. Thus the base line has been established for the Christiar conquest of this great and needy land, with it's five million destitute people Among the niost . interesting of these remote stations is that of the Kore'gn Christian Missionary Society at Batang, just a few miles from th: border. Here Dr. and Mrs. A. L Shelton, Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Ogden. Dr. and Mrs. William Hardy, and Mr. and Mrs. H. A. Baker, good, red-blood ed Americans all, are cheerfully laying down their lives for the uplift of this needy people. TOBACCO STILL GOING OFF HIGH .? -~v.? v ? The Conway tobaco market continued last week to satisfy the farmers of Horry County with good prices ' considering the quality of the weed that was sold. The proportion of farmers in this county who have been in the industry long enough to know how to raise a leaf that com-' manded from thirty-five to forty cents per pound, is relatively small; but the great number of growers of heavier leaf at more moderate prices have received on this market this year which insures them a reasonable return for their labor and attention. | The market continued last week to have larce Sales everv #1nv TV?e I town presented a lively apearance nearly every day last week through the middle of the day when the growers were here to sell their product.

They must bear washing without color fading, and we are frank to say that we do not think after a careful consideration that we can find charges that will bear sunlight and soap water.

Ragsdale Answers Charges. The answer of Mr. Ragsdale to the charges made by Evans deserves further mention. He read a letter from Mr. James D. Evans dated Dec. 7th, 1915, congratulating him on his services, appointment etc. The letter follows: Florence, S. C., Dec. 7, 1915. Hon. J. Willard Ragsdale, M C. Washington. D. C. My dear Mr. Ragsdale:? I wish first to congratulate you upon your appointments to what I consider the most important committees in the new Congress. The Foreign Relations Committee will probably have to formulate in this session the whole revision of the elusive rules which we call the Law of Nations. It is a big job. It is a great compliment to have been selected to fill a seat on it. Your friends will look to you and expect you to meet its requirements. I hope that its demands will not draw you entirely away from the question of rural credidts in which we all have such great hopes. While I do not entirely agree with you in the belief that there should be government aid or financial backing, still I believe that the very close study that Congress has given the problem will pnnKU fhom fn J viiviji i/w ivi uiuiaic na oaiy aim patriotic a system as was accomnlished in the Federal banking laws.
