TlIB Atlanta Journal very properly
remarks that the reseiKO of General
Gordon at the tomb of General Grant
on the day of its dedication will be
striking evidence that the uccasion is in
no sense sectional and that the era of
good feeling for which General Grant
ardently hoped and which he earnestly
strove to bring about has cuuie.
William J. Hiivan, who is now in
Washington, it still suffering: from the
result of the accident at St. Augustine,
and is considerably burisnl. His worst
injury is iu his lel'i side, which paius him
greatly wheu moviDg about. The force
ol the fall can be judged l'ruui the fact
that a silver match-safe which Mr. Bryan
carried in his vest pocket was crushid
completely out of shape by the accident.
Tub situation in southeastern Kurupe
contiuues so ob.-curcs that it begins to
look as if things were being purposely
allowed to drift. The ouly point on
which all the powers seeui to be agreed
is that the Cretans must be starved iuto
submission in order to save the dignity
of the statesmen of federated Europe:
beyond that, like Mieawber, they are
satisfied to wait lor something to turn

"The South," says the Milwaukee
Scntiuel, "needs no protection. Two
thirds of its cotton crop is exported, anil
its furnaces sell pig iron at a profit iu
England. Southern mills, under the
present tariff, are fast outdoing those of
New England, and need open markets
rather than the pent-up protection pol
icy that would confine them to a nar
row home market The Souths in
terests largely predominate in favor of
low tariffs, and its voice should be fam
es' ly and persistently lifted up in the
interest of that policy."
Til K Torrey bankruptcy bill, intn -du
-ed by Senator Lind-ay, of Kentucky,
at the heginning of the sp'-eial session, is
occupying the attention of the senate,
now, arid it is to be hoped that it will
be diposcd ol with sufficient expedition
t ) secure concurrent action by the low
er hou'e before the end of the extraorui
nary session. Several times the bank
ruptcy bill has advanced as favorable ac
tion by oue branch of eongiess, only to
meet its death through the failure of the
other house to act upuii it the same
term.
The bill emhodies the wisist and inert
practical pr.. visions relating to insolvency,
it being the outgrowth uf recommenda
tions by business organizations and ol
extend, d study and discussion by legisla
tors, and il is so Will known to ihe
business world that any piolnnged deba'e
over the I'.asit.ilty of adopting it would
seem to be suprfl ious. It aims to
guarantee equity and justice tor both
debtor and creditor, is calculated to di
minish the number of dishonest failures
and to shield straightforward iusulvent
from suffering by reason ol the rasealiiy
or others.
The early passage of this bill, whicl:
has come so uear to brooming a law
many times, is desired by the commercial
interests ol the country.
Two years ago R. J Warren, a drug
gist at Pleasant Brook, N. 1 , bought
mail supply of chamberlain's Cough
ltemedy. He sums up the result as fol
lows: "At that time the goods were uo
known in this section; to-day Chamber
Iain's Cough Remedy is a household
word." It is the same in hundreds of
communities. Whereever the good qua!
Hies of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy be-
ourae know the people will have nothing
else.
