SOUTH CAROLINA IN CONGRESS Congressman Kagsdale, of South Carolina, administered a severe and deserved rebuke to Congressman Heating, of Col? - rado, io a recent speech reported iu the Congressional Record While discussing the question of preparedness, the Colorado Congressman felt called upon to reflect upon South Carolina. Mr. Ragsdale road from an article in in the New York Mail in which occured this reference to Colo rado and the chili labor situation. "Colorado is proud of the fact that she produced more sugar beets than any other State in the Union. There is nothing to be proud of in the fact that the little hands of 5,000 children from 7 to 13 years of age helped to produce this wealth. "The work begins with tliinuing the beets as their first growth begins. Children 7 and 8 do this, bending over until their backs must ache excruciatingly. All summer they hoe and weed, and in the autumn help with the harvest, the heaviest work of all Some of the details given by the committee are almost bevond be lief. A girl of 10 is reported to have haudled from 10 to 12 tons of beets in a day." After reading this article Mr. Hagsdale said: "Mr. Chairman, coming from the State of South Carolina, and being somewhat conversant with labor conditions that obtain there, \ give it as my opinion that nowhere within the boundaries of that State are labor conditions anywhere near so bad those described in this article The same day, March 15th, in the Senate, Mr. Ashurst, of Arizoua, paid this high and well deserved compliment to Hon. Ben Tillman. Discussing the manufacture of Armor. Senator Ashurst said: "Mr. President, South Carolina has furnished to llie Union many illustrious men and may well feel proud of her son, Senator Benjamin Ryan Tillman. More than 20 years ago he was urging the passage of a bill providing for the erection of a Government factory for the manufacture of armor plate, and the success which, in my judgment, will ata. i i_ _ _ rr t . ill i. i<enu ins euoris, is an uiuai>ra tion of the fact that an idea which is founded in truth may be crushed for a time, but it will ultimately triumph. It is given to but few men to realize results from their efforts in such great movements as this, aud the chairman of the Committee on Naval Affairs [Mr Tillman] may well congratulate himself that the sentiment of the country is now well-uigh unanimous in favor of Government ownership of factories for the manufacture not only of armor plate, but powder ana arms as well." Congressman Nicholls, of South Carolina, made a speech favoring preparedness. He referred to the battle of Bull Kun, illustrating the necessity of preparedness. Ho said the Northern press was saving that the army would go down to Bull Kun and wirifi t,h? ponfprlprnpu r?fF t.hu for.u .... - of the earth. "You remember that the society people of the city of Washington, in their carriages rode down to see the race; and you also remember that when the citizen troops met them there, there was a race, and the people in the carriages headed the procession of runners back to Washington." Mr Nicholls was not making a sectional speech but was making a point and poking a little fun at the Northern brothers. It was quite proper for Congressman Sweet to make a speech in favor of taking tarilf off of sugar. It was a very sweet speech. It is not often that a minister quotes poetry to the Lord in a prayer, except in the case of. the Chaplain in Congress. He does this quite often. BfC SWWT OF ^DutoTA f v The first copy of Th* Augusta Chronicle to leach this office J since the terrible conflagration ^ that on last Wednesday swept 132 city blocks, destroying The Chronicle's beautiful home came Monday's mail. When the tiny four pages were M unfolded the reader was greeted with the expressions of an heroic spirit, cast in the following lines: "With stout heart and firm determination, Aegusta has tinned frcm the dieaster of fire to tht _ future?to-day looking |to the relluf rtf f llrtPrt P 4 - ? - ? - ?1 ^ >tv> ui uiiuoc ul not Clbl/itUlb YVII'-j ^ may oe in need tf help; to-mot-i row looking to the np-building I 8 of the stretch that has been laid waste. "All has not been gloom. No life has been lost. The weather was not severe. The great public heart is shown to be big From all parts of the country there haa come the message of j sympathy and the offer to aid. "While the embers were still smouldering in the ruins of many homes and business houses ener- . getic Augustians, gathered on Broad St. yesterday, were al- ^ ready discussing plans for re hn ilrlinir ? , "There was a spirit of grit pervading all calculations for the ^ future yesterday. When con tributions were called for, the money poured in at a rapid pace, because the people believe in Augusta and so long as there is faith the city must rise. "There was a spirit of cheerfulness even among those who had lost all their worldly goods." HELP SEND A STRONG MAN If congress will work out and enact a practicable rural credit law, many of its other shortcomings will be forgiveu in so far as this part of the country is concerned. But if congress fails in this matter, during this last year of the four year term that the Dcmocralic party has had full control of the government the people will have a right to ask what do platform promises count for any war??The Ycrkville Enquirer. It is plainly the duty of every loyal Democratic newspaper to aid congress in making good on its promises as far as it lies within the power of thai newspaper to do so. Will the good Knquir er permit us to suggest a practical method of materially aidinc w n the congress in this particular matter? We have refereuce, of course, to the candidacy for election to congress of a man committed to this very thing?the extension and development of rural credits ?the Hon. W. F. Stevenson. When our highly esteemed contemporary come? out llat-footedly in favor of the election of Mr. Stevenson to this office, that paper will then have discharged a very important obligation to the Democratic Party. As an instance showing the remarkable growth of America this statement is made upon re liable authority.

SAVES DAUGHTER Advice of Mother no Doubt Prorents Daughter's Untimely End. ??? i Ready, Ky.?" I was not able to do I anything for nearly six months," writes Mrs. Laura Bratcher, of this place, "and was down in bed for three months. I cannot tell you how I suffered with my head, and with nervousness and womanly troubles. 1 Our family doctor told my husband he * could not do me any good, and he had to give it up. We tried another doctor, ' but he did not help me. I At last, my mother advised me to take Cardui, the woman's tonic. I thought it was no use for I was nearly dead and nothing seemed to do me any good. But I took eleven bottles, and now I am able to do all of my work and my own washing. 1 think Cardui is the best medicine in j the world. My weight has increased, and I look the picture of health. " If you suffer from any of the ailments < peculiar to women, get a bottle of Cardui today. Delay is dangerous. We know it will help you, for it has helped so many thousands of other weak women tn the past 50 years. At all druggists. Wrtit /# Chattanooga Mad loin* Co.. Ladia*' ' Ad-isory Cam..

It is another one of the rtnarkable Tanlac stories, and as nankind is heir to suffering, Mr. ioberts' statment almost as lumes the importance of a seinon. Be said : "i shall be glad to tell yon low Mrs. Roberti at lai-t rogai ;d her health and strength, an> [ shall now tell you why she cat now engage in boxing matches tfith our 16-year old son instead i nf conducting herself as one ' broken in health. "For a number of years Mrs Roberts suffered acutely with kidney troubles and chronic appendicitis, with their accompanying ills. She was general [ ly run down in health, and was forced to nndergo an opperation, which, however, gave her little relief. "She perhaps suffered equally as much with liver troubles, and, duiing an operation, a s .rg'on removed several hundred small gall stones. He gave me a bottle containing two hundred and thirty stones, which were scraped from her liver. During the last five years her health has been very unsatifactory 1 spent practically all I earned paying the bills for medical services for her. "She was so sore on her right side that she could not even bear to touch it. Because all j our efforts to fin J relief had fail- j ed, she became discuraged. We saw almost every dav in the ya-; pers a statement by someone who had been greatly helped by 1 Tanlac, and she decided to give' it a trial. We certainly are thankful we did, and we are bisoi thankful we wore p.ivileged to get it. "This is the rea on : Mrs. Roberts feels fine now, and from a! weight of one hundred seventy pounds, when she la-t weighed before taking Tanlac, sin has increased in weight to more than two hundred pounds 6he was forced to increse by four inches the waists of ah her clothes.
