Hebrew festivals, being the day OH which

fication and repentance. The days be-
tween it and the day of atoncment are
called penitcntal days, and are devoted to
solf-examnstion, prayers, and the per-
Torrance Of PREPARATION for injuries

horse foot and dragons. One reason that |
have for believing that the war prejudices are
diving out in the North, is that the House,
which is the freshest from the people, is much
more conservative and liberal than the SEN
ate. This is noticeable fact, and very
significant one.
WHO ARE THE DEMOCRATIC AsPIRANTs.
Reporter. The chances of the Democracy
being so bright, there must be in that party a
number of candidates for the coming nomna-
ton. Who do you consider the. coming man
in this race?
Gen. Gordon. Allen G. Thurman, of Ohio,
is at present by far the most prominent can
didate. His splendid campaign in Ohio last
year, carrying it for the Democracy, for the
first time in many, many years, gives him q
splendid start. You see, Ohio at one time
polled $4,000 Radical majority. TO have
whipped this down, and then carried the State,
is no small victory. Pcndleton is leading
candidate on his currency platform, and Gen.
G. w. Morgan, Of Ohio, is spoken ably of by
his friends. Thus, you see, Ohio offers three
candidates. Next to Thurman should place
Hendricks, Of Indiana, and Hancock, OF
Pennsylvania. Of these two think Hen
bricks is probably the strongest, from the fact
that the West must furnish the candidate. l
think that either of these candidates, with a
good platform, could carry New Hampshire,
Connecticut, of the New England States; New
York, New Jersey, Delaware, and probably
Pennsylvania, Of the Middle States; all of
the Southern States, except South Carolina,
Mississippi and Louisiana and Ohio, Indiana,
California, Oregon, Nevada, of the Western
States
THE CIVIL RIGHTS BILL WILL PASS.
Reporter. Do you think the civil rights
bill will pass the next session?
Gen. Gordon. am almost sure oft. You
see it failed last session only because it needed
a two-thirds vote to bring it up. Next session
it can be taken up in its regular order and
carried by simple majority. 1t had sixty
nine majority in the House on its issue last
month. With the same Congress to vote on
it next session I think it will certainly pass.
Reporter. Will the President veto it?
Gen. Gordon. His inclination will certain
ly lead him to do it. The party pressure,
though, will be very strong in favor of his
signing it, and fear he will not resist it. He
is very sef:willed, though, and there is no
saying what he will do. l believe that if it
could be STAYED off until the next Congress
was elected it could be beaten for | am con-
fdent that in the next House the majority
will be reversed.
