Our editorial, “Bring in Your Colton,”
published in Sunday’s paper, of which there
were near fifteen thousand copies issued, has
excited a great deal of comment. Wo have
received some very harsh reproofs for it, and
one of our warmest triends on yesterday re
marked in his excitement that we were “pan

their day of grace has gone, and that the day
has come when Atlanta’s public meeting-* can
be cairiedon, with at least as much decency as
characterizes the assembling of a m« b in

Wo sigh for the day when Atlanta’s youth

loftier things than sneaking into a smut-hole

The vexed qncstiou wbether a married wo
man can become a bankrupt has once
more been adjudicated upou, and this time
in Indiana, by Judge Gresham of the United
States District Court at Evansville. The ease
_. , , . , j was a proceeding in bankiuptev brought by
friends to ccc.se their lumnltnens hissing | Hays, Gibbons & Co., of St. Louis, against
and allow bis opponent’s speech to be Rachel Goodman, a imuried woman. The
heard: or of Mr. Dodd attending the | petitiou charged that Mrs. Goodman was the
mass meeting with a piece of candle and
matches in his pocket, baciuse he knew in
case of a close vote, the gas would be turned
v’lfe of Morris Goodman, and that for several
| years she bad been engaged in basiuess in
her own name in Evansville,|Ind.: [that she
was indebted to them in the sum of $487 27,
and had committed an act of bankruptcy.
The court ruled that in accordance with the
statutes of the [State a married^woman can
not engage iu any kind of business on
her own account, unless she have
separate property: that if a woman, not hav
ing separate property, engages in a business,
the profits belong to the husband as the earu-
ings of the wife; and that a married woman
in ludiana possessed of no separate estate is
relieved ot none of the disabilities imposed
. , upou her by tho c miiuioii law. These rules

ont by some strategic statesman, as in truth
it was, are but incidents that have heretofore
been inevitable in every public meeting ol
any kind in Atlanta.
To snch an extent has this thing been
carried that it has been almost impossible
to get the older and more conservative citi
zens to take any part in municipal elections
at all. They did not shun ward meetings fr««m
