A1sttla Mora Reconciliation.

Still another effort is about to be made
to harmonic the north and south. though
TO people who do not bother much with pol
tics, and who are intent On building up
their own fortunes and the country and get
ting as much happiness as possible out of
life, the need of any such effort is hardly
apparent. The north and south appear
to be getting along very well together.
and if It was not for the talk of the
politicians and the political organs
it would not be an easy matter to discover
the existence of any bitterness between the
two sections. The men of the south and
those Of the north, mingle together freely
without friction, and in their business tran
sactions they DO not recognize the fact that
there is a north or a south. They simply
act and talk as if they were citizens of one
great country having no sectional divis-
ions.
1t seems that somebody in st. Louis read
Gov. Gordon's patriotic speech at the re-
ception given the governor by Gen. j. Madi-
son Drake, at Elizabeth, N. j., during the
Washington centennial celebration, and,
fired with patriotic zeal, he proposes an Or
ganization Of ex-confederate and ex-union
veterans, and that the organization shall be
called the American Veterans Union"
There is no objection, of course, to such
an organization, and if there arc those who
want 10 ] IN ID they ought to be permitted
to do SO without any criticism on their
course. Gen. Drake favors it and so does
Gov. Gordon, and so doubtless will thou
sands of others Such an organization,
however, will excite the opposition of those
who do not choose to join it, and will be
the occasion, for time at least, of great
deal more sectional talk than is heard at
present.
The truth is there is very little sectional
bitterness between the people of the north
and SOUTH The most of that which exists
is confined to com aratively few, and those
few are pretty nearly all politicians. The
great mass of the people. north and south,
are not worrying themselves about matters
that were settled quarter OF a century
ago. The wounds of the war are about
healed, and if it were not for the few who
want to talk for effect, or for political pur-
poses, the wounds would not attract atten-
ton. 1t has been said hundred times, on
hundred different occasions, by people of
both sections, that perfect good feeling pro-
walls, and that common understanding to
let the past alone has been reached Why
not let the matter rest there?

SulliYan's SneculRtions.

The statements which have appeared in
the dispatches relative to the Cronin murder
seemed to indicate that Mr.. Alexander NJ.
Sullivan, the Irish leader in Chicago, had
something to do with it, One of the state
mentS was that Mr.. Sullivan received $780,
600 from Patrick Eagan for the Gamma
Gael societies, and that he wasted $50, 900 of
it in speculations.
Mr.. Sullivan's lawyer says that at the
proper time it will be shown that the money
which Mr.. Sullivan lost in speculations be-
longed to parties for whom Mr.. Sullivan
was acting as agent, and that it was not the
money Of any Irish society. He further
says that it will be shown that the 500 900
received from Patrick Egaa was returned
to Egan, and that a full explanation of why
it was returned and why it was given to
Mr.. Sullivan in the first instance will be
furnished.
1t is certain that an explanation of this
kind would go long way toward relieving
Mr.. Sullivan of any suspicious in connec-
ton with the Cronin case. The fact that he
was hostile to Cronin is pretty we'll estab-
lished, but it is probable that the murdered
man had great many enemies.

The republican press has had very little
to say about Maj. Edgington's recent speech
in Memphis, in which he said that the white
race must rule, that the bestowment of suf-
frage upon the negro was a mistake, and
that the Negroes right of suffrage should be
restricted. 1t is well to bear in mind that
Maj Edgington is a republican. The Chi
cago Inter- Ocearssays: 1--WE do not know
who Maj Edgington is, but we learn that
he is a republican; that he was soldier in
the union army, and that he has delivered
himself of speech in which ne recommends
that the negroes shall be deprived of the
ballot" The Inter Ocean, it will be seen,
misrepreSeaes Mai. Edgipgton at the outset.
He did p9t recommend the disfranchisement
of all the negroes, but only those who are
incapable Of using the ballot intelligently.
However, the Inter Ocean may think that
that restriction would deprive the entire
race of the ballot

Gen. George Sheridan was an ardent
Harrison man before the election, and he
made number of speeches for our blue
blooded aud cold blooded President. 1t is
doubtful if he would take the stump for
him again. He said the other day: Char
rison is Indifferent to public opinion. l be-
lieve he really mads use of the expression
that he was going to please himself, for it is
just like him. 1t is characteristic of the
man. He believes that when the Supreme
Power undertook the making of the uni
verse, at that time it was mjointly settled
with the creation of the world that in the
year 1889 there should be such a person as
Ben Harrison on earth and that he should
be President Of the United States. Harri-
son isn't thankful for anything or to any
body. Possibly he may congratulate the
Lord on having carried out his part of the
contract to make Harrison P .esiient, but
it's doubtful. II he isn't renominatad he
will simply say: WELL it is the country's
misfortune" This has genuine ring about
it. No doubt Gen. Sheridan said it, and
very likely he understands the President as
well as anybody else.

There is still lower depth of degradation in
the matter of wedding tours than the purely
domestic brand upon whose charms I have di
lated, and this is the bridal trip to Europel"
How any girl with an allowance of four
senses, setting aside five or SIX, can go on a
wedding trip across the ocean. being married,
say at noon, and setting sail at O'Clock or early
next day. Is to my mind so much of an unfemi-
nine mystery that don't believe care to have
it solved.
Yes. indeed. we have great deal yet to learn
from our English cousins, and the sweet, ten
der, secluded fashion of going to quiet private
house In the country for the honeymoon, either
as the case may be. is by no means the least of
the lessons we may acquire with profit and ad-
vantage.

A recent cartoon in Judge has stirred up
some bad feeling among republican states
men. President Harrison is represented as
dsmigod, and Mr.. Blaine, Vice President
Morton, ex-senator Platt, Senator Allison,

represented as beasts of various kinds. The
significant feature of the picture is that all
of these statesmen are represented as having

port Gov. Hill for President and Mr..
White, of California. for Vice-President.
There are two very good reasons for believ-

that Mr.. Cleveland is not talking polite

hardly advise the party at this or any other
tine to nominate any particular ticket.
