WHETHER the Exposition should
be kept open today has been the
great question, throwing altogether
into the shade that propounded by
Hamlet in the time of Shakespeare.
There has been no end of argu-
mentation on the subject. The re
igious world has insistan on one
side, the utilitarian has argued the
reverse. Thursday it was an
nounced that the gates would be
opened as usual, because there were
no orders to the contrary; but the
next day came the order that the
gates SHOULD be closed, and so the
matter is'Aettled. In large cities
the museums are kept open at leas.
part of Sunday, and we have
thought that the same rule would
probably be followed in regard to
the Fair. But it seems not.

Mr.. CLEVELAND has expressed him
self very decidedly in favor of re-
pealing the present silver law and
hopes that it will be done at the
extra session in September. In a
conversation with Senator Butler,
of South Carolina, he urged his
views very strongly, and the Sena-
tor replied that there was not much
likelihood of that unless some com
promise should be offered the
South-such ss the repeal of the
law prohibiting State banks from
issuing notes Senator Butler is
right. The South should stand firm
by the present law unless this con.
cession is given us. Let the gov.
ernment Sake it's hands off of the
currency. It has throttled Southern
industry and enterprise long
enough. Let US insist on a new
declaration of independence in
financial matters.

A BREEZE has been stirred up by
Secretary Herbert's order relieving
Capt. Mahan from his position as
President of the Naval College and
directing him to take command of
the cruiser Chicago. 1t is urged
that Capt. Mahan has written the
best books on naval topics published
during this generation, and that he
should be retained on shore duty.
Capt. Mahan is indeed very valu-
able officer for certain lines of shore
duty, and the Navy is much indebt-
ed to him. This, however, would
be no reason for excusing him from
sea service, but as a matter of fact
sea pay is higher than pay when on
shore, and there are many supernu-
merary officers, and the command
of the Chicago would be much
priced. We apprehend that there
are particular reasons for sending
him to sea, which the Department
would not care to avow, such as irri.
tation that Capt. Mahan should have
written very forcibly in favor of the
annexation of the Sandwich Islands.
The order is being discussed very
freely and much criticism has been
evoked by it.

THE Board of Lady Managers at

THE Board of Lady Managers at
Chicago have some troubles anon e
themselves. Mrs. Logan on Thurs
day said something that seemed to
reflect on Miss Cunnin ngham, the
representative of South Carolina,
and when the board assembled the
next morning, South Carolina
claimed the floor. There was a
gentle cyclone brewing. Miss Gun
ningham referred to the remarks of
Mrs. Gen. Logan who, she claimed,
had impugned her motives. and
stamping her little foot, she de-
clared that such structures should
not pass unheeded As might be
expected some confusion followed.
We imagine that many tongues
were set loose, but soon Mrs. Logar
entered an appropriate disclaimer
and the business proceeded with
courtesy.

WHEN one recalls the great popu-
lar interest that was manifes-
ted at the death Of Bishop Brooks,
he feels some curiot ity to know
about his successor who has just
been elected.
As announced yesterday, DR..
William Lawrence has been
chosen to succeed him. The laity
in the committee of Massachusetts
showed decided preference for
DR.. Lawrence on the first ballot,
and on the second ballot he was
elected. It is said that the result
may be taken as meaning that the
policy pursued by Sheriff Brooks is
to be maintained-a broad, liberal
policy Speaking of Dr. Lawrence
the Boston Herald says: It is a
part of intense interest throughout
Massachusetts that an honored
member of one Of it's best native
families is chosen to follow the
head of one who was pre-emiently
a Boston boy. Liberalism is to be
fostered in the Bay State

NORTH CAROLINA should stand
firmly by the present law for the
purchase of silver until the poor
boon is granted us of having our
own State banks of issue, such as
our fathers had before US. We

currency has been limited. If the
present situation is bad, and seems
to be full OF peril, very we'll; we

The idea of the trust was hatched
III January last, and the organiza-
tion was perfected three days ago.

led under the articles of incorpora
ton to receive 8 per cent interest
per annum, provided there are suf
ticient earnings to admit of the pay
ment on that amount to them. The
dividends, it is also provided, are to
be cumulative. The holders of the
common stock are entitled to receive
such dividends as the directors may
be able to declare after paying the
per cent to the holders of the pre-
ferred stock
The trust, which was incorporated
under the designation of the United
States Leather Company, has issued
! $6.OOO.OOO of debenture bonds, to
run thirty years, drawing 6 per cent
interest, principal and interest to be
payable in gold. The bonds are tc
be marketed at 1O3, with accrued
interest from May l, and, although

is to hold forth at Holly Springs.
Butler is a plausible talker and
counts largely on stirring up the

guise and now goes about as an Al

is to advance third party ideas and
