An ordinance introduced in the
convention permits men to fight
duels, but DISTINGUISHES all men
who wear concealed weapons. We
hope the ordinance will pass; be-
cause if men will fight, they should
do so by the "code Of honor
openly and fairly. We think this
plan will materially reduce blood
shed, because when men know
they have to "faee the music" on
an open field, they will be much
more prudent in their language
