 The Monroe doctrine is alive and we weak and old, are ready to defend ii still. We want to see our flag honored in every cline. No American should be made to feel in foreign lands that in- suit and injury to him are slow to be avenged.
 The Union Veteran Legion is for lib- erty. and we ask that our nation aid the fighters for liberty, whether in the Gem of the Antilles or struggling Hawaii.
 We are not large in numbers, MT Mayor. but you must remember that it takes a good deal of milk to produce a little cream

H4Ry4RD,s EASY TIME.
Had No Trouble in Defeating Williams at
 Football.

tOoibHii.
 Boston, Oct 16.-,Harvard had an easy time with Williams on Soldiers field to- day and rolled up 6 seore of 32 to in two halves of twenty and fifteen min utes each
 The score would have been larger but for the poor work of the Harvard tackles Stevenson and Houghton-who were continually losing ground by holding and off side plays. The game was pret- ty to look at on account of the numerous long runs by the Harvard backs, but it was hardly creditable one for a strong team. Williams was weak in of fensive and defensive play, while its ends were totally unable to break up Harvard's interference, and both Con terman and Brewer were able to make this distance almost every time they were called upon
 For Williams Draper played an all around game. He punted and tackled splenddly, and did most of the good gaining for the team. For Harvard Donald, the freshman right tackle, dis tinguished himself He tackled well and repea tedly broke through and stop ped runs A. Brewer and Cabot made some fine tackles but the latter was badly fooled twice on fake kicks. Once Draper got around him for twenty yards. The center was strong, with the exception of Rice at left guard, but this is his first varsity game, and some all IOwaoce muSt be mada for his work Stevenson at left tackle scrapped with his man and paid little attention to the game and Houghton, who succeeded him in the second half made a spectacle of himself by his poor work.

PEACH BLOSSOM WINS.
THE EVENING JOURNALS CHOICE
FOR STATE FLOWER CHOSEN.

Public School Children Cast Their Bal
lots for the Fragrant Forerunners OF
Deiaware's Luscious Fruit-The Result
of To-day's Voting.
The suggestion made In the EVENING
JOURNAL that the peach blossom be
selected as the state flower, struck
q popular cord, and that fragrant
and beautiful flower, the fore
runner of the luscious fruit which
is associated with the Diamond
state wherever its name is spoken.
Y YeHtsrday afternoon a vote was taken in
the public schools and the peach blossom
was chosen as the state flower by an
overwhelming majority.
At the High School the voting was
carried on the same as at a general
election, the object being TO famillarize
the scholars with the methods of voting.
The peach blossom received 3s1 OF the
4S0 votes cast The other candidates
we're: American laurel, 15; trailing
arbutus, IS; daisy, 16; violet, 81; red
clover, 3; dandelion, 3; golden rod,
2; rose, lily Of the valley, / water
lily, Il sunfower, ! /; forget /
In school No. ID the peach blossom
didn't have dissenting vote; ia school
No "a but few, and in school No. . the
violet got a solitary ballot
The total vote Of the schools was as
follows Peach blossom, 4 722; violet,
2, 9s2; daisy, All; rose, 3s9; lily, 22S;
arbutus, 200; forget me not. 207; golden
rod l5 others scattering, 327
The victory OF the peach blossom
speaks volumes for the state pride in the
fruit which has done much to bring 1t
before the general public, and also shows
the wide -sprssd circulation and influence
of the EVENING JOURNAL, In whose col
umns the advisability Of selecting this
flower was alone suggested 1t is
lesson which advertisers will
do well to consider. An advertisement
In its columns will and does reaeh a
larger number OF readers and appeal
to more buyers than in any other paper
In the state. The canvass for state
flower demonstrated this.
