Eolofernes' Three Functions

cdu <aHlOLIO L. =. teS,
In its editorial columes of last Sunday
morning the Dallas News reprints from the
New York Recorder ford personal con-
corning Mr.. a. II. Belo, in which it is
stated that he has just returned from
Europe, and is wildly glad TO get back TO
his two newspapers. No doubt the colonel
is rejoiced to press once more the soil of
America, but his wild hilarity over the
prospect of speedily getting back to his
newspapers is not understandable. In the
conduct of those papers it is MIR. Belos I'M
portant province to say little, write less and
draw checks. He does them all very well.

The question was argued grayely
butlinconclusively in Memphis court
whether a Hebrew juror who insisted
on observing the religious custom of
his faith, may lawfully wear his hat
while taking the prescribed oath.
What miserable quibbling! AS well
argue that the man should take off his
gloves, his coat or even his unmention-
ables. And 1t is often on just such
ridiculous quibbles-technicalities they
are called-as this, that wills are broken,
judgments defeated, grave sentences
nullifed and the manifold vexations
and harassments OF the laws delay
visited upon thousands. 4 trumpery
technicality like this is often loaded
with as deadly devilment for an honest
litigant, as d dynamite bomb for its
unsuspecting victim. 1t is the internal
machine of the law courts, and the
plaything OF shrewd attorneys.

Southwest of Setauket, L. l., stretches an
open, level tract usually called Old Field,
and in lonely part of it stands queer old
farmhouse. Apparently it was originally
small and cheap affair, to which all sorts
of wings, additions, porches and sheds
have been added without plan or thought
of beauty. There is little sign of life about
the place and it has a slightly uncanny
look, yet it is the home of wealthy man,
a hermit and a scholar in his way.

THE Seattle Telegraph agrees with
THE GAZETTE in the matter of the re-
cent flag incident at Atlanta on the
occasion of the unwilling of Henry
Grady's monument. 1t says magnaui-
mously concerning the affair:
The display of an old Confederate flag
down South once in 4 while, on the occasion
of some celebration, Anglers the radical
people among US very much. Yet there is
really no harm in it. If we had war with
Chilli or any other country the South would
send her full share of defenders of the
stars and stripes, while most of these radi-
cal people would carefully stay at home.
When the Southern veteran organizations
bring out in procession their old battle
flags, who is hurt? What sentiment or
cause is injuredl AS q Southern man re-
Gently said, There has not been rebel flag
manufactured in the South since the war.
Every one of them is the ragged remnant
of what the Southern girls made for the
commands as they went forth so long ago."
And many of these old flags were returned
10 the Southern veterans by Northern
organizations that had captured them. To
complain of their keeping and carrying
these old flags, returned by sympathetic
foes, is pitiful smallness Of soul.

A NEW FIRM.

As was noticed in the FREE PRESS on
Monday of last week, the Hanford Pro-
duce Co. disposed of their business to Mr..
A. E. Morse, who has since formed CO.
partnership with F. NJ. Williams and G.
A. Morse Mr. A. E. Morse the head Of
the new firm, has been resident of Man
ka TO about two years. during which time
he has had charge of the business of the
Hanford Produce Co. In that time he has
won for himself an enviable reputation as
first class business man. He is perfectly
familiar with all the details of his business,
and believes that his own interests are best
served by looking closely after the inter
ests of his patrons.
F. M. Williams, of Winnebago City,

Genes well recommended, having been en-
gagged IN the same business In that city, and
is thoroughly acquainted with It's details.

RESIGNED.

Mr.. J. J. Payne, local agent for the
q. S. Express Company in this city
rendered his resignation to General
Superintendent Crossetton Sept. 18th,
to take effect Nov. 1st. As yet his
successor has not been appointed, but
no doubt will be in a short time, as
Mr.. Payne received line few days
ago from Mr.. II. P. Sine, private sec
rotary to Mr.. Crossett, stating that
the general superintendent was alb
sent from home, which may account
for the delay in selecting Mr.. Payne's
successor.
Mr.. Payne has been agent for the
company several years, and has given
entire satisfaction. He resigns for
the purpose of going to California. and
will leave for the coast with his faith
er about the 10th Of November, and
expects to locate there permanent
ly. 1t is hoped that the express COM
pany viii select a Mankato man
TO i'll the vacancy, and this is likely,
as several applications have gone in
from parties residing here.
The FREE PRESS, in common with
other friends wishes jim success wher-
ever he goes. and is sorry to lose him
from our city.
