Let us pass to the likenesses. The most
obviously important and fortunate for
either man was their extraordinary power,
constitutional and enduring, of shutting
the door of their minds on what was IN
pleasant. No two men were ever less
haunted by their troubles or difficulties.

hensible problem why our people should
thus ignore what is within their grasp,
what cannot be taken away except by our
own wilful neglect, and al the same time
utter frienzied howls for something we
have not got, and cannot control, except
by dtverting 1t from the natural chan
nels, and then we would be obliged 40
fight inch by inch to hold 1t; whereas, orr
naval stores, lumber and cotton are here
to our hands, and cannot be diverted. Why
can we not build, own and run our own
ships to deliver our own products? What
is it that, so far, has built up our city?
Was it cotton mills or commerce.? Are
we not acting very much as that dog of
the fable, who dropped his own bone into
the brook to grasp at moonshine? Would
it not be far more feasible plan to de-
veiop the business properly belonging to
US, and which we now hire others to trans
act, before we rush outside of our natural
limits seeking after an untried and I'M
natural scheme? If we cannot ieliYer our
raw material, how can we expect to mar
ket manufactured products where We
come in direct contact with those coun-
tries which both make and market their
goods2

our people to think little for themselves,

Grocer in City Court Receivers Judg-
ment on an Old Claim.
The case of w. F. Gilbert against w.
E. Griffin was on trial in the City Court
yesterday morning. The plaintiff former
~ conducted a grocery store at Whitaker
street and Park avenue, and charged that
Griffin owed him Sl1SO5 on an open ac-
count, payment of which had been re-
fused.
The defense made by the debtor was
that the goods had not been bought by
himself but by his wife, by whom the
account was owed and who was respon-
sible for her Obligations both in law and
in fact Judge Norwood virtually disposed
of the defense in his charge to the jury
in which he quoted the rule of law that
makes a husband responsible for the debts
incurred by his wife for the necessaries
of life. The jury evidently thought that
groceries came WI thin the definition of ne
cessaries, for they found for the PLAIN
tiff for the full mount of his claim.
A number of judgments were taken by
several plaintiffs against A. j. Winton,
all of which were by default. The defend
ant made no apps arance in any OF tue
cases and interposed no objection to the
judgments against him being taken. The
S0utnefn Fine com pdiiY recoNeteu % JUS
ment against him for the sum of Sl,SOO,
principal and s3S.7s interest; the Andrew
Hanley Company got Judgment for SlSS.36
and J. r. Eason for $4,000.
Other judgments were taken by default
by the Anheuser Busch Brewing Asso-
citation against Georee Workman, for
s2c0N, with interest fe two years, and
by A. Enrich & Bro, against j. II. Otto,
for S159.67, principal, anel Sl6.75, interest.
