Disgrace Of Florence.

The chief pride of the city of flowers
should be Dante. He, native son of
the city of Florence, looked into the
future more soultully than any other
poet who has ever penned poem, and
he poetiZed subject the most difficult
that lraS ever been treated. The only
one who has ever attempted even with
partial success anything like the poetic
effort of the Fiorentine classic was the
late John Henry Newman in his
dream of Gsrontius."
Florence gave birth to Dante; it is
the shame of that city that his grave
should be in Ravenna. A deeper dis
grace still Is it that he. the descendant
of crusaders; the master of all the
knowledge Of his century; the spiritual
enthusiast who wore himself lean in
making perpetual picture of the tor
lures of the damned; the graceful knight
who was as much at home when leading
a forlorn hope as when writing sub
timely of the splendid, sad-hearted
Beatrice, should have been driven in
disgrace from his own beloved city;
should have been sentenced to be
burned in case of return, thus forcing
the imprisoned curse from the eXIle's
lips, not upon hateful foreign foes, but
upon his own people, whom he natural
ly would have loved

PREFERRED CREDITORS.

The New Brauniels Herald says
that the bill now before the legisla.
ture to repeal the law allowing all in.
solvent debtor to prefer creditors
when making an assis nment ought in
justice to pass. We agree with The
Herald, but we suggest modification
to Senator Agpew. A man when he
becomes insolvent has no right to
prefer one creditor before another.
He ought not to be able to control as
sets after he gives up his assets by
assignment. The law as it Is allows
the widest latitude for fraud. The
assets of au insolvent debtor belong
to all his creditors and they should
share alike i'm the division of the
money for which the goods or prop
erty of any kind sells.
The law is an encouragement to
fraud and is often taken advantage OF
when If all was given up fairly
q man might not assign
but work out of debt. II, however, he
is pressed and can assign to some rela'
tive or friend sufficient to start him in
business again clear of all old obliga.
tons he is tempted to do it as near
cut to re.establish himself in busi-
ness.
The law might be amended with a
provision that a creditor or creditors
might be preferred who advanced
money when a mans affairs were en-
bsrra, sed to aid him in attempting to
make enough money to pay all his
creditors dollar for dollar, but it
ought to be we'll established that the
money or debt preferred WAS of that
kind of an obligation. In that kind Of
an emergency when the money is ad'
vanced for that purpose the creditor
ought to be secured, for his money adj
vauced has been for the benefit of al
the creditors,

THE Gazette, Fort Worth, thinksa as
the anti.option bill has passed the
senate, 1t will pass the house, escape
the residents veto and become u
law. The Gazette says it Is strange
that the bill which was meant for the
protection of farmers was opposed by
the senators closest to the farming
interest. 1t is not at all strange. for
the farmers and planters have become
convinced that the bill offers. them II
protection that does not protect, and
that IL would be a serious blow to
their interest and by numerous petit
tions TO senators and members of the
honse they have signitied their oppo.
sjtion to it. The bill will never be-
come law for the opposition to 1t

How It Became Popular

When people find an article much
superior To anything of the kind they
have ever before used, they ar almost
sure to tell their friends about it. and
especially # they know OF some
friends needing such an article. Deal.
ers also soon learn the tue value of
their goods and when they have an
article of unusual merit they will al
most invariably mention the fact to
their customers. This accounts in a
great measure for the large sale on
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Here
is an instance: w. l.. Neeuham. p
prominent citizen and business man
of Orrshurg, Mo, has been selling
Chamberlaln's Cough Remedy for
Sc 'errl years and recommends it to
his customers, because in his exper.
fence it has proven TO be the be t for
colds, Group and whoOping cough. He
says 1t is the most popular medicine
that he hanfle+, and gives the best

THE HAWAIIAN COMPLICATIONS

1t has been ascertained that there is

even more important than 1t seems

Hawaii must be ours but care should b.
taken that we violate no vested rights
in taking control of it.
The rev olution in Hawaii and the
prOvisi Jnal government brought out
of it should not be considered as

OF government, and the Federal au'
thurtes, as it were, ought to go be-

power to do as we please about the
matter is ground upon which to eX'
ercise all fairness, or, in other words,
we must not presume upon that
power.
There are other things that mus
influence our action. While the peo-
pie of Hawaii ostensibly desire to be-
come part OF the great American re-
public there are other nations who
have at least some trade rights in the
matter of annexation. 1t will not do
