Tt is generally known that he commissioncd to tender to Representative McKinley, of Ohio, an invitation to attend the south- ern Chautauqua to be held near At~ lanta, and to make an address there on protection, Mr., Carlisle being invited to speak on tarit reform. Colquitt conveyed the invitation to Carlisle but declined to invite McKinley, saying in oxplanation that he did not want gny republican protectionist to talk to his people. The narrowness and bigotry of this declaration aroused the indigna- tion of Senator Brown, of Georgia, and of Kditor Grady, of the Atlanta mstitution, who ave *in- terested in the success of the Chuutaugua, and are also not in sympathy with Colquitt's tariff views, and they determined that McKinley should attend and address the people if he could be induced to accept after learning of Colquitt’s conduct, Ac- cordingly Senator Brown waited upon the Ohio representative, stated the cir- cumstances, and the invitation was ac- cepted. The peovle of Georgia will thus have an opportunity 1o listen to a “pepublican protectionist,” and oue of the ablest amoug them,and whatever opinion they may form of his views they will atleast be copvinced that he 1s a gentleman worthy of the respect of any people. Very likely Colquitt rep- resents the sentiment of a wajority of the people of Georgia, and it is such exhibitions of narrowness and partisan bitterness that impair faith in th professed progress of the “new . south” toward wiore liberal 1dens.

Tts Fate i te. When the Mills bill goes to the senate it will be at once referred to the finance committee. The impression is that the committece will pigeon-hole it, pending the effort to construet substitute which a sub-committee of republicans making. As to the probability of anything resulting from this ctfort the interview with Senator Allison reported in our Washington dispatches was from veassuring. The senator inti- mated that the session might be pro- longed until the middle of Scptember and still no bill upon. Lverybody understands that there is no possible chance of the Mills bill passing the senate in its present form, and the amendments certiin to be made to it in that body would as surely not be con- curred in by the house. The simplest way of ending a struggie which it is parent can have no practical result at this sesston, is for the republicans of the senate Lo agree upon a substitute for the Mills bill and its The majority of both branches of con- having thus made their record idawait the verdict of the people in November. There is evidently great difficulty in uniting republicans on a tariff bill, but it ought to be very obvious to them that it is of the highest importance, from the point of view of parly interest, that they should bring forward & meas- ure in consonance with the present atti- tude of the party. It ought to be plain to them that the parly cannot make its fight before the people to the best advantage wupon any position of simple negation. The popular interest and intelligence re- specting this isspe were never belore so alert and thorough as at this time. The people were never more earnest in de- manding a delinite avowal by the pav- ties of their respeetive methods for dealing with exc tion and the resultant accumulation of a dangerous surplus in the national treasury, Tt will not be well for the republican party to have toconfess that its representatives in congress were unable to agree upon any method. Such anacknowledgment would go far to destroy the influence of the national platform, and would sub- jeet the party to the charge of having less courage than its opponents It cannot afiord to be placed in this position, and therefore the re- publicans of the senate will make g great mistake if they fail to improve their opportunity for proposing tarift measure which they can all support, Tt must be confessed, however, that the prospect of their doing this is not alto- gethier favorable repented? a be acted pss ress ssive tax A Question of Bee Lver since Senators Vest and Plumb attacked the alleged beef monopoly, ex- posing its methods and charging it with being the most oppressive and exacting combination in the country, theve has been a great deal of public interest manifested in the subject, The senate adopted a vesolution appointing a com- mittee to thoroughly investigate the cattie trade, and it will enter upon its work immediately after the adjourn- ment of cong Meantime the mat- ter is not being allowed to drop out of publicattention.

OMAIA, the Bditor of Tix Bre The numerous dissolutions and failures re ported the retail grocery trade the past week indicate strongly that the line is much overdone and that credits are too freely ex tended. Colleetions in the ety have been bad for some time past. The loss of mone; through the building strikes had much to do with this, as mechanics had to be carried by the tradesuien during their illness and they have not been le to cateh up since, Con sequently the tradesmen arve hard up and un able to meet their bills to jobbers, Candid men in_the jobbing trade will readily adunt that credit is extended to freely in this city, both by the joubers and their customers and To by the retailers to theirs, and the sooner a halt is called in this respect the better it will be for all concerned. A certain amount of credit is necessavily granted, but a retailes should not ask the jobber to carry him for staple oods to thrice the amount of his work ing capl inday Bee. The amount of trath contair lines, every retailer in Omaha knows only tuo well, especially in the grocery and meit business, Truly, it is time to call a halt in this respect. The credit system in this city is being overdonc and abused. When strangers, utterly unknown to the owners of the stores, is it not time to call a_halt! body knows how much money retailers in o year, by having only a few bad accounts, which the shrewdest business man cannot prevent. Customers may pay their bills reg ularly for a long time, and then, if they tak a notion, may fail to pay their bills for two or three months, andf the retailer refuses 10 carry them any flonger, he runs the visk of losing all cominy to him, and with very little chance of edllecting 1. Whiolesulors and jobbers can closea trades man's store by the sherifl 1o get their money, but the retailer, how can he get what right fully belongs to him from a customer? 1s it not time for the retail merchants 1o cor tozether and protect themselyes and to sell for cash only? It would take some time to bring it to this but it can be done, Tt will be better for both the consumer and the vetailer in the end. The coal dealers have lutely adopted this plan, ana I under stand it is working very satisfactory. Let other dealers adopt a svstem something similar to the dairyman’s p, Let them issne tickets of the 5,10, 15, 23 and 50 cent de nomination, for the accommodation of custo- mers who would buv a few dollars’ worth at once, but for cash in advance only. Some retailers would probably obj such a plan, fearing to lose their good payin istoers, but if all join together, then the rich ana the poor alike will pay for their goods when ticy ethem - This is not dsking too much of any one. 1t is a good, sound principle 1o “pay as you go." Our customers will think no more “of paying cash han they do now by having it Selareed.” The merchant can then sell on smaller profit and the consumer will not buy more than he wants, which hc often docs when he runs an account Iu my opmion, such a system would be rood for all concerned and put a_damper on “dead beats !
