Atlanta Constitution.
The retirement OF Senator Chiffon from
the senatorial contest in Texas leaves
CONGRESSMAN J. W. Bailey without op-
position. His success in any event was
almost foregone conclusion. While
senator Chiffon is man OF very great
ABILITY he has never been able to ret
as close to the common people as Mr.
BAILEY. Al this distance il has seemed
mat In Senator ChHfon's attitude toward
the people there was certain reserve.
Sn aiootness which. while It has been
characteristic OF some of our greatest
men, has not added to their popularity.
congressman Bailey is both serious and
9ignihed, but he has never allowed his
usnl,y 70 interpose between him and his
constituents. Tic Is essentially man

The Pharmacy Bill.

The following is the text OF bill which
has been introduced in the Maryland
Legislature. apparently for the purpose
of giving to pharmacists monopoly of
the retail drug trade.
SECTION I. Be it enacted by the
General Assembly. that no person on
the passage of this act shall open, con-
duct or keep pharmacy in this State,
either as principal or agent. unless such
person shall have obtained pharmacist
license. as hereinafter provided. and no
pharmacy shall at any time be left in
charge of any person who is not licens-
ed pharmacist. licensed acting pharma-
cist or a licensed assistant pharmacist.
Ii shall, however. be lawful for physi-
clans 10 compound and dispense their
own prescriptions. and for merchants to
sell patented medicines and medicines
bearing copyrighted names on labels,
and medicines in original and unbroken
packages. If such packages are put up by
and bear upon the name and address of
a licensed pharmacist, or If put up by
and bear upon them the name and adj
dress of manufactures or lobber VI no
does not vend medicines at retail: and
il shall be lawful for traders to sell in the
regular way such drugs, spices and
chem io ais asare used for culinary pur-
poses and IN the arts. if not sold for nor
intended for medicinal use either in
ternally or externally; p,o1ided, that IT
shall be lawful tor merchants TO vend in
broken packages Cream of Tarter. Sal
Soda. Sodium Bicarbonate. Sulphur,
Borax, Copperas. Saltpetre, Camphor
and Quinine Sulpha.e.
Such a measure might be all right in
cities and towns where drug stores are
convenient, but in country districts
where they are unknown how are the
citizens to get medicines for their fami.
lies? They can buy in original packages,
but suppose you want few cents worth
OF epson salts. car bolc acid or dose OF
Seidliiz powders. do you wish to be COM
PEELED to either purchase whole pack
age or get physicians prescription at
a cost OF a dollar perhaps and then send
fifty miles to a drug store? We hardly
suppose such bill will pass.-Cafs,<,1
