A prominent Republican said recently:

TO REoRGANIZE TIE CoREAN ARMY.
The King of Corea requested the
American Government to send "a board
of American officers to that country, for
the purpose of reorganizing the Corean
army and placing it upon an efficient
military footing. Upon the recommen-
dation of General Sheridan, William
Nee. Dye, E. NJ. Cummings and Major
John G. Lee have been selected to per
form this duty and have accepted.
They left this city last Sunday for San
Francisco, and will sail from that city
for Corea on the 2lst.
Col. Dye is a West Point graduate,
served in the Union army during he
war, and was breveted Brisadier Gen
eral in 1865. He resigned and entered
the service of the Egyptian Khedive,
where he served for five years.
Col. Cummings was captain in the
Confederate army, serving on the stalls
of Generals A. S. Johnson and Beaure-
gard, and is a resident of this city.
Major Lee is member of Governor
Beavers (Pennsylvania) staff, and has
made the military art a special study.
He is a young man.
No idea can be formed of how long
these gentlemen will stay abroad, until
they reach Corea and ascertain the pre-
else character and magnitude of the
work to be done. Y.

THE DAY WE CELEBRATED

To-day is Washingtons Birthday.
There is tendency of late years to re-
vive the celebration of the day. Not
wlthstanding the great advance made
since Washington's time and the phe-
nomenal growth of the country, our
debt to the Father of his Country is as
great as ever. The day that gave George
Washington TO the world made the great
American Republic possibility. Not
that the Revolutionary War would not
have been fought, but that there proba-
bly, would not have been found so much
of the needed sagacity, fortitude, cour-
age in facing defeat, patience. hopeful
ness and moderation in victory united in
one man as the world found in Wash
ington. 1t has been well said that he
lost more battles than he won vet
achieved all his ends.
The celebration of Washington Birth
day serves to keep in mind not only the
nations debt to him but also that we
owe to all the patriots of ''the times that
tried mems souls" There is tendency
to speak fiippantly Of the fathers of the
Republic because they had human feel
ings. 1t is a reaction from the intense
hero worship of the early part of the
century. That they were only human,

TIE REBEL FLAGS

There is little comfort for the Repub-
licans in the communication of Secretary
of War Endicott regarding the captured
Confederate flags. Republican Secre-
taries have returned such flags. Repub-
hcan Congresses have ordered such flags
to be delivered up, but nothing in that
line has been done by the first Demo-
cratic administration since the war. OF
the recaptured Union flags, twelve have
been returned to the States to which
they belong by Republican Secretaries.
seven by Mr.. Endicott. There has been
no removal of these trophies captured
by the victorious armies from the
places where they were required to
be displayed and hence concealed from
the public for the reason that there
has never been any provision made by
the previous Republican administrations
to display them. The Republicans them
selves have been remiss in what some of
them now consider the solemn duty of
keeping alive the memories of the war.
The order of President Cleveland issued
upon the suggestion of Attorney General
Drum was promptly countermanded
when the President was advised that he
was exceeding his powers. The follow
ing extract from Mr.. Endicott's report is
instructive.
OF Confederate flags, nine were given
upon written order of Mr.. Stanton, and
Twelve others issued during his admins
tratlon OF the War Department, and pre-
sumably by his authority. At least fftv
more Confederate flags were lent by Mr..
Stanton to individuals or associations
who subsequently returned them. One
confederate flag was loaned by General
Benet, Acting Secretary of War, to Gen.
Clark, and has not been returned.

FEDERAL POINT, February 90.
Our people were interviewed last week
by S. g. Soaring in regard to the right
of way for the proposed railroad through
this town. When the railroad company
will make survey, and present to us
something tangible, we will then be able
to act intelligently.
Mr.. Hazeltine, from Michigan, arrived
last week.
Capt. B. F. Wade, of the steamer Cur
lew, has secured rooms at Mrs. Folsom's,
and has gone to housekeeping.
Z. III. Hart has returned from Sanford
where he has had fine exhibit of or
anges, and we are informed has taken
the lions share of the premiums from
the South Florida exhibit there.
Only few of our people attended the
gala week of PaIatka. The weather was
unfortunate, being too wet, Yet we are
in full sympathy with the Gem City,
which will eventually be the Crown City
of Florida, land don't you forget it, .

tune for her.

inflammatory rheumatism, but we hope

THE FISFERIES TREATY.

The Fisheries Treaty, the text of
which is given to the public this morn
ing through the Associated Press dis
patches, seems such document as will
meet with approval. The proposed de-
limitation seems to be in the nature of
compromise between the Canadian and
American demands. American fishing
vessels may put into the bays and har
bors of the coasts of Canada and New
foundland outside of the limits of the es-
tablished ports of entry, for shelter or re-
pairs of damages or for the purpose of
purchasing wood or obtaining water
without being required to report, enter
or clear, provided they do not remain
more than twenty-four hours. In case
of distress United States fishing vessels
may enter any of these ports, harbors or
bays and unload, reload, tranship or sell
their fish, under the customs laws and
regulations, when they find it necessary
to do SO to make repairs, may replenish
outfits, provisions and supplies, may
ship crews and be granted license to
purchase in established ports of entries.
for the homeward journey, in case of
misfortune from weather, death or sick
ness.
Provision is made in case of recipro-
cal removal of the duties on fish, fish oil,
etc., and on the necessary casks, cans,
etc, for the removal of the prohibition
on the purchase of provisions, bait, ice
and other supplies, transhipmento of catch
and the shipping of crew in all cases.
Annual licenses, free of charge, will
then be granted to all American fishing
vessels for such purposes.
