Gordon at the reunion of Confederate veterans at At lanta yeaterday waa Informed with pa trlotiam and the spirit of reconcilia tion. and It will no doubt help to tian ten a more pertoet union between the North and South than existed ev.cn be fore the war of seceeelon. Among the grewt rads to be attained in this con flict with Spain, aald Geo. Gordon, "the freedom of oppressed Islands In both oeeana. the wider Influence of America In the council* of the nations, the increased respect for her power on land and sea, there 1b still another achievement to be attained, no less glorious and fnr-reachlng; namely, the obliteration of all traces of dlatrust among ourselves and the complete and too long delayed unification of the Am erican people, which shall be called in question no more forever.” THE BEUKION. The great reunion of Confederate veterans has adjourned and the boys who wore the gray, after ono of the most delightful conventions In their histoay, hove returned to their respec tive homes throughout the South, k Aever before were so many survivors Inf the Lost Cause assembled together Arihile the rapture of reminiscences, as ■ay "shou derad the crutch to show ■wr fields were won,” marked the oc- as an epoch. |B}«n.

He said that In some coun tie* tb* fees wore not sufficient for tha j work Involved; In othar* the offirare | got a fair and reasonable eompenaa ! lion; while In other* the amount* ob ; tulo- d are far above the salary that should he attached. "As a result." be said, "this ha* re sulted in the practice of several men getting together and running for one i of there officer, and dividing the fee*. | It would be fair and right for the Leg islature to pass a law making a reason, able compensation for the officers, so that the officers of every county should receive equitable amounts. 1 believe that If this Is not regulated by the Leg islature very noon and fixed while the ball Is In motion, the question Is being agitated. It will result In something worse for these official*. I do uot be a lleve In a niggardly amount being named, but let fair and Just compensa tion be paid. Let a system of books be kept and returns made and the salar ies can be regulated according to the showings made." Blehmond county Is heartily in favor of It. The Legislature will. In fact, be sustained by the whole state if It wipes out the unjust and unequal system of fee® for county officers and Instead gives them all o fair and equitable salary. The abuses of the present plan are notorious. It Is practically Impossible, In the first place, to find out what ts tto compensation of all the county officers. Furthermore, the remuneration of the various officers Is not fairly distributed. The whole state has revolted against the present plan. Now that this senti ment has found expression through such representative citizens as the county commissions from all over the state, In convention assembled, and their wishes are to be transmitted to the state Legislature, is seems that the reform so long desired is at last In sight and that the taxpayers are to find relief. The public did not realize how good Ice cream was until the price went up a hundred per cent.

In the past, to the fraudulent ne- I gro vote and which has done valiant j service for the Populist party, and j whose major plank is fair elections Is not only against « white primary, but ta doing the county courts and the offi cers of tha law ‘ho Injustice of at tempting to fix the responsibility of all hands and corruption upon them. Un der th© heading, "Whit© Primaries a Deception," the Tribune prints an ed itorial on July 22, In which It says: "It should uot be forgotten by any one who wants to see our elections fair and clean, and who contends that such can only be accomplished through (ho adoption of white primaries, that it was not the negro vote that corrupted Itself In our past elections, but the de bauchery was done through white men, party managers and heelers, who man ipulated the low and contemptible n©- gro element at the polls. Left alone to east their ballots freely and voluntar ily. with th© officers of the law and courts ready to I’. tect nnd punish* frauds, the negro voters would not dare attempt to violate the law. "This being true, the only question Is. do our officers and party managers, and those charged with authority de- RitY> clean elections? Will the people demand that honesty and fairness pro. Vail, and 'see that vioftlftbrs are duly punished, and that all cittalifiod voters cast their Mallets as the! 9 choose?"
