He is at present general superintend

Where Credit Is Due.

The present house of representa-
tives has won high reputation for
its devotion to business and the
prompt way in which it has been
transacted, yet giving every needed
opportunity for pertinent debate. 1t
passed the silver repeal bill after
two weeks debate, and other bills of
considerable interest and Importance.
1t is noTs considering the bankrupt
bill which Mr.. Stone opposes and
Mr. Dalzell supports. 1t is a subject
that has been before congress at in
tervals since the government was
formed. Several bankrupt laws have
been made, but only to be repealed
after a few years trial. There is a
strong pressure from the eastern
and middle states for the enactment
of the present bill, while the opposi-
ton comes mainly from the west and
south. 1t is assumed to be an act
in favor of the creditor interest, and
it is to some extent, but it is also in
the interest of the honest debtor and
gives him new start in the world
with clean balance sheet, provided
he makes good showing as to the
honest application of his financial
resources. This should more than
counterbalance any alleged advan-
tage to the creditor interest.
The house within few days has
perfected piece of Legislation which
will be of great advantage as a mat
ter OF economy and orderly admins
tration. This bill revises the entire
matter of government publications
and printing, and remodels the whole
system of printing and distributing
public documents. Tons of doom
ments are now printed that are of no
use to anybody, and only serve to
cumber up the mails. The house is
clearing its docket for the considera-
ton of the tariff bill, which no
doubt will be ready for debate the
first day Of the regular session
should there be an adjournment, as
seems probable, until the first Mon
day of MISUNDERSTANDING Post

Judge Boreman rendered an i'm

OF his court in Peasants County. 1t
was in the case of Hicks & Hoge vs..
Bookman. This suit was brought to
obtain q construction of the recent
Married Woman's Law. The point
raised was, whether the Married
Woman's Law of 1898 is retroactive.
The court held that it is not To
make it so would be violation of
the constitution of the United States,
which says no State shall pass law

Cant Stop Business.

The P6ttsburg Dispatch of late
date says The great body of Amer
lean people cannot be idle. They
must prepare the ground, SOW and
reap that they may get something
to eat. Our commerce and indus
tries cannot remain torpor- stricken
for any appreciable period. The
spirit of commerce and Of specula-
ton must assert itself. Torpor bred
of apprehension must be shaken off;
1t must not be permitted TO burden
the great energies of mighty nation
like an Old Man of the Sea. Dan
gers happily passed must not be re
called; forebodings based upon the
uncertainties the situation through
out Europe presents or those discern.
ed nearer home must not be permit
ted to interfere with the wheels of
trade. The merchant prince and the
mechanic, employer and employee
cannot afford to pause-the wheels
must revolve; they must prepare and
transport all the necessaries of life,
from the fuel the cook employs to
the costliest garments the ultra fash
ionable deem essential olife. Com
merce can't be quit of the risks each
each year brings. From the man
who invests a dollar and quarter
in Government land to the banker
who loans on two name paper, back
ed up with "giltedged' collateral, all
assume risks. 1t is impossible to
eliminate hazard
II is impossible for anybody in
volved in the complex thing we call
business to stop. This being the
case, torpor cannot weigh long upon
the magnificent energies of the great
Yankee nation.
These are words of wisdom, and
if all will so far appreciate them as
to act upon them the country will
soon return to it's normal condition
of business prosperity. Already the
banks are filing up with money and
renewing their loans. Prices are
tending upward, business is begin
ming to revive in a very remarkable
degree, and a more hopeful and con
fident tone to pervade all classes.
This is not so much to be attributed |
to any pending or prospective legis-
latlon on silver coinage, or any 1inan-
cial legislation at Washington, but
the inherent impossibility OF long
snppressing the energies of our PEG
pie which must and will have a
speedy outlet to their Astounding
energy and hopeful ambition. AS
an evidence of this returning conf |
dence and reviving trade we may
the fact that the Victor
Mills people are buying and selling
more hay, grain and feed, -four and
meal than ever before in the history
of their trade, and at lower. prices,
and doing this business upon cash
basis, which they have found is both
better for them and their customers.
1t will not be long ill the bulk Of all
trade will be reduced to a cash basis
Or so short credit as to be practic-
lilly for cash. The man who allures
you into buying on credit, has a
arge margin of profit on his sales to
you, to insure against losses, or else
will himself soon become insolvent.

man. His bride is the daughter of James
Donaldson, Esq, OF Laurel Iron Works,
and is the youngest OF seven sisters. She
is sweet, unassuming young LADY and

ROUGH DRAFT OFTHE TARIFF BILL
1t is Said That Iron Ore will be Put on
the Free List-WOOl Schedule,

The first rough draft of the tariff
bill has been completed and gone
over once by the b-committee. 1t
is the expectation that it will soon
be submitted to the full committee
and the careful second reading and
revision begun. What has been done
now is subject to change, but it is
thought that all those things which
have been definitely decided on by
the subcommittee will stand through
the final revision of the bill. Some
of the features of the bill are radi-
CAL
The wool schedule in the Springer
free wool bill which passed the house
last congress, is Incorporated into
the bill practically without change.
There will be considerable enlarge
ment of the free list by the addition
of raw materials, and heavy cut in
all duties which are not properly
revenued. The idea of tariff for
revenue only is adhered to quite
closely, but this application may not
be made to coal. Iron ore goes on
the free list and there is a very con-
siderable shaving down of the entire
iron and steel schedule The tax on
whiskey will be increased not above
20 cents but the exact amount of the
increase has not been decided vet.
An increase in the beer tax is prac-
tically determined upon. The pur
pose is to classify refined and unre-
fined sugar closer together, but this
is more apt to be done by reducing
the duty on refined sugar than by
putting any duty on the unrefined.
The bounty will go. Either an in
income tax or an Inheritance will be
provided for, to increase the reyen-
ues. A heavy reduction is made in
the glass schedule.
