DUEL 10 DEATH.

A sad affair took place in Montgomery,
Ala. last Saturday, which resulted i'll the
death of Walter L. Bragg, a prominent
young attorney of that place, and the
serious wounding Of DIR. j. H.. Mattel.
The trouble commenced at the theatre
building on Friday night during the lee
tnre of Senator Morgan. The house was
packed and it seems that Young Bragg
shifted his position frequently in his en-
ieavor to get fair view of the speaker
DIR. Eeftel who was sitting behind him
objected to this, aud finally told Bragg
that he MAS 40 gentleman, wherenPon
Bragg told him that he would see him
later On tlae following morning Bragg
went to the office Of Dr. EefteI and, III a
quiet manner demanded an apology from
him. DR.. Neftel had no opologS to make
and repeated the offensive language,
whereupon Bragg struck him. and then
both men drew their reyolyers and COM
menoed firing. Both men emptied their
revolvers and Bragg lived bnt two hours.

THE REUNION.

This week was held the grand reunion
of Confederate Veterans at Birmingham,
Ala. As migIlt have been expected there
was a large attendance. The thanks of
the old soldiers are due the management
of the several lines of road which
gave reduced rates. The title of
Confederate Veteran is one of which
they who hOnoraMy bear the same may
well feel proud 1t marks a man who in
the flower Of his youth, gave up family
friends. his future prospects for advance
ment and all that is held dear in life and
gave his services for the defense of his
home. his tireside and the rinciple of
home rule. This service Was rendered
without the hope of reward and against
enormous odds. While the armies of the
north were well fed, well clothed and
each private soldier drew from the gov
ernment SIG per month. the southern
soldier rendered his service without
money and without price, with fidelity,
courage and fortitude that has ueve
been surpassed in the history Of this
world. Ii is fitting that thes" reuuion>
be held and the memory of those who
staked their all on the issue Of the wal
which was waged for the purpose of pro
curing q separation between the two

IMPRISONMENT FOR DEBT.

The state Of New York is the only one
in the union that still Las upon its
statute book a law permitting imprisom-
meHt for debt. New York bears the
proud title Of the Empire state and de o.
serves it in many respects, but that this
relic Of barbarism should remain is sur
prising. We are glad to see that the
pegple of the state are awakening to the
fact that it is time this fOul blot upon the
fair name Of the state be oDliterated.
The idea Of imprisoning Il man far debt
is revolving. We know there are some
who consider poverty u crime and would
so treat it, but thank God they count for
nanght among the many millions who
see no wrong. but only misfortune in
impecuniOsity,

During the life Of the present congress
it is to be hoped that some plan will be
formulated for the construction of Ca
nal across the Isthmus of Panama. That
the canal will eventually be constructed
no one doubts, and it is of the utmost i'm
portance that the United States should
have control Of the same, both from
financial and a military point of view.
Senator Morgan already has a,bill well
under way which is perhaps as nearly
perfect as may he under the circumstan-
ees We regret that our columns are i'll
sufficient for the publication Of the bill
entire.
There is no doubt but that Il majority
of the people of the country and also Il
majority of their representatives in con
gTess are III favor Of the construction of
this grand work which will do 50 much
for the commerce of the world but when it
comes to methods there are many diverse
opinions, The experience of the United
| States government with the Union Pacific
railroad to reach the Pacific ocean is yet
fresh Ia the minds of many people now
living, including the gigantic frauds that
were perpetTated. Not only did the gov,
eminent donate lands, the value of which
WAS sufficient to have built the road three
times over, but also & laranteed the bonds
of the company to the extent of $40, ,00O,-
| 600 and vet the pao1 hplnuHpd to n 1lri.
vate corporation which has defauited in
the payment of even the interest On these
bonds, while the government continues
tO pay vast Sims to this same corpora,
tiOn for the carrying of the mails, tht
transportation Of troops, etc.
We believe it to be the sentiment of 1
large msjority Of the people Of this eoun
try that the United States should cXer
else control over this proposed canal, ye
they are not willing that there shonld b,
a repetition Of the frauds that character
lied che building of the Union Pacific
The government should not endorse tn,
bonds of private corporation ente
into eopartneFship with the same. Oh
this ground the Morgan bill will b.
frOught, and 1t is quite probable that
bill will be introduced and passed pro
yiding for the building and operating o
the canal by the government. The con
structi0n of this vast work would affurr
employment for a multitude of men wh,
are now idle.

AcoLD RECEPTION


The indications are that Coxeys army
Of eommonwealers win not meet with
very cordial reception at the national
capital.
The senate committee on rules reported
the other day that they had taken cogni-
zanee of the approach of Coxey and
while they saw no reason to apprehend
any trouble they have taken ample pre-
caHtious to protect property.
The chief of police and the commandment
eff the district militia have had frequent
consultations and have perfected plans
for dealing with the array and all strag
glers and Coxey need not be surprised to
find that his lot is not a happy one when
be reaches the nations capital, for he
has been advised in advance. According
to a Washington authority the Edmunds
Law passed in 1882, among other pr0vi-
/ siOns as to the public use of the capital
grounds, provides that it is forbidden to
make any harangue or OratiOn, to stand
OF move i'm professions or assemblages.
OF display any flag, banner, or device
designed to bring into public notice any
party, organization or movement. The
penalty for violating this act is fine not
to exceed 500 or Imprisonment not to
exceed sixty days, but in the case of
heinoHs 0ffenses by which public proper
ty shall have suffered damage to an
amount exceeding Sl0O the .offense is
punishable by imprisonment in the
penite1rtiary for not less than six months
or more than five years. There is also a
law which prevents moving in proees-
without a permit from the major gOi
police. by the enforcement of. these two
laws and other laws fOTbidding Assem-.
blages on the streets and vagTancy the
the district commissioners and the cap,
itol authorities will be able to prevent
any demonstration whatever by General
COxey and his followers The commits
siOners had considered the matter al
several meetings within the last few
days and have been in frequent consulta
tion with Major Moore, the chief of po
lice, and General Ordway, the command
ant Of the district militia.
