Judge Prpndergast, In the county
court al Chicago on Saturday. took a
position regarding commercial honesty
that will command the approval OF mer-
chants everywhere. and which has been
too rarely assumed by the courts iD deal
ing with ths affairs OF bankrupts. In
case of Lindaur Brothers Il Co., Of that
city, Judgment notes had been given Ia
relatives OF members OF the firm aud
preferences executed ~ Chicago banks
which were its creditors. The result,
had the Judgment notes and preferences
been held valid. would have been TO eH-
clude the eastern creditors OF the firm
from any share In the assets OF the bank
rupts, although those assets almost
wholly consisted Of goods bought from
those creditors The Judge took the COM
mon sense view that while II might not
be susceptible OF proof, all lawyers
knew that the judgment notes were
given with intent 10 defraud. and that

the others, take one cent or ten cents

point an assignee, In order that all
creditors might share alike.
Practices such n Judge Prendergast
alleged against Lindaur Bros. ~ Co. have
been 20 common OF late years as 10 seri-
ously affect trade. eastern manufactur-
ers and jobbers being almost without
remedy, in many localities. against the
dishonesty Of their customers. A few
experiences such as they have had with
the Lindaurs tends TO make them chary
Of granting credit, and the existence Of
distrust between buyer and seller has
often produced serious results. This
state OF things shows the need Of ma
tional bankrupt law. under which one
creditors claims would be- as good rs an
others. The law which was repealed a
number OF years ago was doubtless faulty
In many ways. II operated at times TO
oppress the debtor unjustly, and may
have been too much In favor OF the cred

rich fees for the registers In bankruptcy.
Various substitutes have been proposed
by merchants associations. but congress
has not been able 10 agree upon any
plan. The need Of general bankruptcy
law is so apparent that the pressure for
its enactment will be continued until the

NO EXTRA SESSION

Discussing the probabilities Of an eI-
ira session OF congress, the 81, Paul
Pioneer Press says: "AnextTa session is
an evil; but it would be greater one TO
have the territorial question aud tariff
reform 90 over for another full year"

Pioneer Press Of desire for tariff re-
form are ridiculous. Three and half
years 10 every four il advocates reform

1t might really accomplish something
for the cause II takes It's place at the
rear OF the hightariff procession aud
trails its reform banner in the dust.
Not only will tariff reform go over for
another full year." but for several OF
them, and as long as such men as
William D. Kelley control the legisla
tion Of this country. The cause will get
no substantial aid from such advocates
as the journal named and the Chicago
Tribune. which think more OF party
than Of principles, preaching tariff re-
form aud aiding In the election Of pro-
tectionist presidents and congressman
simply because they are republicans.
The Pioneer Press Processes 10 believe
that the pOstp0nement OF the territorial
debate until the middle Of January ar
CUES failure TO act before the 4th OF

the bill II will be met in the republican
senate. and even there certain republi.
can members-as Mitchell, Of Oregon

bility Montana will be full-fledged
