COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER.
ONLY ONE FLAG.

The municipal authorities OF San
Francisco have laid down arule which
should become part of the unwritten
organic law Of this republic They
have decided that in professions and
other formal gatherings the only flag
shall be the stars and stripes. There
is nothing invidious about this. 1t is
the emblem of popular sovereignty
and of freedom to all people who seek
shelter beneath it's folds. No man,
not born within its sway, has pre-
scriptive right to set foot on this soil
and the generous welcome extended
by the American people to those Of
all nations to enjoy our constitu-
tional privileges entities them to de-
mand in return ut least an outward
respect for All emblem we hold 80
dear.
The rule now laid down is that the
Stars and Stripes shall be the only
flag, but that organizations or socie-
ties shall have the privilege of dis
playing banners suspended between
two poles or swung across one by
means OF a cross.bar. This will per-
init the Free Masons, the Sons of St.
Patrick, the Helvetian Society, the
Society of st. Andrews, the Sons Of
st. George, the Knights of Pythias,
the Ohio Society, Native Sons Of the
Golden West and every other COM
bined body of men formed for social
purposes to fling to the breeze the
silken emblem of the order. The dis
play of banners adds very much to
magniiicence Of a parade, and it would
have been pity to shut out all such
Insignia in order to avoid a feature
which is Objectionable to very many
Americans native born and other
wise.
The happy solution of the question
will meet all requirements and should
offend none. "When you are in
Rome, do as the Romans do" is a
very old maxim, but there is much
wisdom in it. II that made emigra-
ton to and residence in this land de-
sirable is typified in Old Glory, and
it should share the honors of this
people with no other flag, rag or badge
ON earth.
|Only one flag" is the law. All re-
minders of other lands or other gov
ernments are only relics which may
be hell in aifcctionate remembrance
but must not be faunted.-Carson
Tribune.

With the departure Of another year
when review is made of the condi-
ton of affairs, it is only right that
some thought be given to the physi-
cal body which enables everyone to
battle with lfe;s problem and figure
for themselves the profit or loss on
the trial balance sheet. Though the
bank account may be large and each
ones material gain be great, it would
not be surprising if it suddenly upon
many that good health has been
greatly impoverished by the low con-
dition of the blood. It is in this
state that the Tactic acid in the vital
fluid attacks the fbrous tissues, par
ticularly TIE joints, making known
the local manifestations of rheuma-
tism. Thousands Of people have
found in Hoods Sarsaparilla the
great blood purifier, a positive and
permanent cure for rheumatism.

To the Editor Of the Dispatch:

To the Editor OF the Dlspatch'
The past week has been fine for
butchering hogs; We have enjoyed
some Of the sausage and pudding.
Everybody is done sowing and a
heavy crop has been put in Of both
oats and wheat.
The saw mills are doing fine basi
ness. The advance in cotton makes
lumber more lively.
Quite a stir in No. 10. No doubt
it will in the near future be cut into
three school districts for the conYe-
nience of the children. The school
population has grown to such num-
Der as to necessitates division.
Cadet L. A. Sease is at home from
Clemson College and has fine coat
of measles. We have not seen much
of him as he is keeping close. [
hope he will be able to attend the
Teachers Association.
The Casper Debating Society will
meet the Star in joint discussion
Saturday evening, the 14th inst. The
place of meeting is near Amick's
ferry. A general invitation is ex-
tended to all who wish to hear the
debators. Is the Casper is an old
society, and has many fine speakers,
it will down the Star in this contest,
but the Star is young and will in
time take the Casper to task, and no
doubt it will show up On the question
better than those Of longer training
may expect. We certainly admire
the youthful pluck in accepting a
challenge from SO well organized So
ciety. Such courage must succeed.
Very glad to know that you are
going to begin to publish the consti-
tuition. This will give all your read
ers the opportunity to get copy of
that important production. Those
who are not subscribers now, should
subscribe without delay or they may
regret it when it is too late. If you
will send me few extra copies l will
take pleasure in handing them to the
non subscribers aronnd here, so that
they may see what they are going to
do. Every man ought to have a copy
Of the constitution and refer to it
from time to time until he becomes
familiar with it and not go by what
he hears somebody say isinit. There
seems to be 10 better way to get it
than the way you propose, and SO
cheap.

Af:9.: Thirty Years.
the Ashtabula, Ohio. Beacon

From the Ashtabula, Ohio. Beacon
Mr.. Fred Taylor was born and
brought up near Elmira, N. Y, and
from there enlisted in the 1S9th 1egi
ment, n. Y, Y. l.. with which be
went through the war, and saw much
hard seryicee. Owing to exposure
and hardships during the service,
Mr. Taylor contracted chronic dlar-
rhma from which he has suffered
now over thirty years, with absolutely
no help from physicians. By nature
be was wonderfully vigorous man.
Had he not been, his disease and the
experiments of the doctors had killed
him long ago. Laudanum was the
only thing which afforded him relief.
He had terrible headaches, his nerves
were shattered, he could not sleep an
hour day on an average, and he
was reduced to a skeleton. A year
ago, he and his wife sought relief in
a change of climate and removed to
Geneva, Ohio; but the change IN
health came not. Finally on the
recommendation of F. J. Hofner, the
leading druggist of Geneva, who was
cognizant of similar cases which Pink
Pills had cured, Mr.. Taylor was per-
suaded to try a box. LAS drown
ing man grasps straw so I took the
pills." says Mr.. Taylor" but with no
more hope Of rescue. But after
thirty years of suffering and fruitless
search for relief I at last found it IN
DR.. Williams Pink Pills. The day
after I took the first pills l COM
menced to feel better and when L
commenced to feel better and when
I had taken the first box I was IN
fact g. new man." That was two
months ago. Mr.. Taylor has since
taken more of the pills and his pro-
gress is steady and he has the ut
most confidence in them. He has
regained full control of his nerves
and sleeps as well as in his youth.
Color is coming back to his parched
veins and he is gaining flesh and
strength rapidly. He is now able to
do considerable outdoor work.
As he concluded snarating his suf-
ferings, experience and cure to a
Beacon reporter Mrs. Taylor, who
has been his faithful helpmeet these
many years, said she wished to add
her testimony in favor Of Pink Pills.
"To the pills alone is due the credit
of raising Mr.. Taylor from helpies
invalid to the man he is today" said
Mrs. Taylor. Both Ar. and Mrs.
Taylor cannot find words to express
the gratitude they feel or recommend
too highly Pink Pills to suffering
humanity. Any inquiries addressed
to them at Geneva, q, regarding Alr.
Taylor's case they will cheerfolly
answer as they are anxious that the
whole world shall know what Pink
Pills have done for them and that
suffering humanity may be benefited
thereby.
Dr. Williams Pink Pills contain all
the elements necessary to give new
life and richness to the blood and
restore shattered nerves. They are
for sale by all druggists, or may be
