Commissioner Lochren is invited by
the G. A. r. of Pennsylvania to send his
resignation to Secretary Smith because
of the secretary's infamous and cowardly
onslaughts upon poor ana deserving
Union soldiers, - and because Gen. Loeb
rem is "too gallant a Union soldier to
serve under Hoke Smith" The fact is
that Gen. Lochren is as ardent a pension
reformer as is the secretary hence, there
will be no resignation

The incident has been spoiled; the story

The stories told the court-martial at
Malta by the survivors of the Victoria
make it appear that Admiral Tryon, so
far from any attempt to save himself,
actually sought death. After the fatal
ramming of the Victoria by the Camper
down he acknowledged, 1T was all my
fault" and then went into the chart
room. The natural inference is that,
realizing the enormitS of the casualty
caused by his error, he resolved to expi-

The Columbus Enquirer-Sun is Of the
opinion that the extra session Of congress
will run into the winter, if not into the
regular session. The Georgia lcgisla-
ture, it says, will probably get down to
work before the extra session of congress
acJourns.' The Georgia legislature will
assemble on Oct. 26, and probably get
down TO work. some time in November.
1t certainly should not take congress three
months to repeal the silver-purchase
clause Of the Sherman act and that is all
congress needs to Go before adjouning
until the regular session.

The Long Drought in Europe

The damage that has been done IN Eng
land and on the continent by the long
drought that has prevailed over n great
portion of Europe this year is not fully
understood in this country. The MORN
ING News called attention a few days ago
to the fact that hay was being exported
from this country to Egland, France and
Germany. In all of those countries there
has been an almost total failure of the
hay crop, and thousands of cattle have
died from starvation. One of Savannah
merchants who returned from Germany
a few days ago stated that be saw fine
horses sold for almost nothing, because
their owners could not procure feed for
them. Beef has never been so abundant
in the markets of London and Paris as at
present Farmers are compelled to sell
their stock for whatever they can get for
it. The drought has killed all the grass,
prevented the making of hay crop and
damaged greatly all other crops.
The London Times in a recent article
says that the reports as to the hay and
grass are simply deplorable. Hundreds
of acres of meadow lana whichin the or
binary way would be looked to for a
heavy yield of hay have actually not pro
duced a single truss. One Essex farmer
relates that he had one wagon load OF hay
from fourteen acres. There is certain to
be great dearth of hay and straw of all
kinds for use during the coming winter 50
The crops in France, Germany and
Austria are as bad as they are in Eng
land In England it was thought that
there would be fair yield of wheat, but
the London Times says that "oven wheat,
which was considered as holding q good
position last year, appears with lesser
prospect this month, NOTWITHSTANDING
that it is the best cereal crop OF the pres
ent season"
Europe will be a larger buyer than ever
this year Of our breadstua5. Her mis-
fortune win be helpful to us, though that
| fact is not acause for rejoicing She viii
need wheat, corn, pork and hay in greater
| quantities than ever before. and our crop
| prospects justify the conclusion that we
shall be able TO supply her demand.

The Literary Digest, non-partisan
weekly publication has polled the editors
of the leading papers of the country on the
repeal of the Sherman silver law with
these results In the eastern states, of
sc replies received 50 editors favor and 6
oppose repeal; in the western states, of
81 replies received 80 favor and 81 oppose
repeal in the southern states, of
p replies received II favor and s oppose
repeal. Summing up these figures, the
total stands 1913 for and 46 against repeal
Among all the replies there was only one
doubtful, and that was from a republican
editor in the east. Most of the opponents
of repeal were populist editors, or editors
who desired a free coinage measure, at the
present ratio, established in the event of
repeal.

Hon. &. 8. Clay, of Marietta, Makes
a Bright Speech at Hawkinsville.
Hawkinsville, Ga. July 2O.-The Con
federate Veterans Association of Pulaski
county held its annual reunion at the
courthouse here to-day. The association
has been organized about eighteen months
and has a membership of nearly 200, and
Is now in a most tlOurishing condition. A
remarkable fact about il is that not a sin
gle member has died since the organize
ton was formed. At tO-day's meeting Hon.
A. S Clay of Marietta, was the guest of
honor and delivered the address. The
superior court court room was packed
when Veteran l.. c. Ryan in few appro-
pirate and eloquent words introduced Mr..
Clay. The day was oppressively warm
and the crowded condition of the room
made it anything but comfortable, but in
spite of these adverse circumstances Mr..
Clay held the undivided atten-
ton of his audience throughout
his speech, which lasted a little
over an hour. He thanked the Veterans
association for the pleasure afforded him
to be with them. After briefly but elo-
qUently speaking of the herOism of the
men who wore the gray on many hard
fought battlefield, he told what the Con-
federate veterans had done for the south
and for Georgia since the late unpleasant
ness.

The lawyers of South Carolina have
learned more Of the loopholes of law and
the powers of judges during the admins
tration of Gov. Tillman than they would
probably have learned in ten times the
same length Of time under the admins

things they have lately learned is that a
justice of the supreme court can suspend
by supersedeas any writ of injunction is
sued by circuit court Judge That is
what Justice Popes writ suspending
Judge Hudson S injunction in the Darling
