Spanish Flag Burned.

South McAlester. June s.
THIS morning the citizens were
startled to see a large Spanish
flag floating over the postoffice.
The flag was quickly hauled
down and burned. 1t is not
known who put the flag there.
There is a clew, however, which
may lead to the discovery of
the man who raised the flag,
which may result in a necktie
party and the rope to which the
flag was tied used for that pur-
pose.

She Knew How to Travel.

He is a son to be proud of, and she has
handsome old lady with much self-re-
lance, says the Detroit Free Press. After
weeks of arrangement and discussion,
she was to visit daughter in another
state, making the trip alone. The son
had protested against the venture as more
than she should undertake. but his sole
itude met with rather a chilly reception.
Don't treat me as though I were a
child" objected the old lady. 81 Travelled
before you were born, and have more con-
fidence in myself than 1 would have in
any one you might send along. If not per-
mitted to look after myself, I would pre-
fer to remain at home. I'll not go about
creating the impression that l require a
guardian
This left no room for argument, and
after giving her careful instructions as
to how she must proceed from one end of
the route to the other, the son said: Now,
here is your transportation. The conduc-
tor will tear off what is necessary, and
just as soon as you reach sisters put the
mileage that is left right into this envelope
and mail it to me. l want to use it as
soon as it is available
The mother demurred at such explicit
instructions. She knew just what was to
be done and she would attend to it with
out the aid of written forms or diagram.
She made her journey, her safe arrival
being reported by the daughter. For two
weeks the son waited patiently for what
was left of that mileaEeSbook and then
wrote about it..
Il told you," came the answer, that l
learned TO travel long before you did. It
is well that such is the case. On the train
l met one of the most entertaining and
helpful of men l ever knew. He was of
great assistance to me- and when he saw
my transportation he told me as gently as
possible that it would be worth nothing
to you after I had. used a portion of it,
But he is connected with the company,
and would give me s. for it. OF course,
1 thanked him heartily and accepted his
generous offer. You should know what
you are about hereafter, especially when
you undertake to advise those older than
yourself"
The good son simply sat down and in
dulged in mental profanity. He was out
$40, with no chance of getting even.

mend me, and have the rheumatism very

amined."
"A bad day to be examined for a pen
sion on account of rheumatism" remarked
the one-legged veteran. "Why, it's just the
right kind of day. Any fellow could have
rheumatism to-day, and a veteran like you
ought to have been so rheumatic that any
medical board would put you through

did you say to that?"
Il did as they told me, and ran around

them you had rheumatism

Suppose they did. You had rheumatism
You could not run
81 couldn't when I left home, but the
day was so bad 1 took bracer to help me
get to the examiners office
THAT helped you to run, did it?''
''I was agile as cricket"
What did the examiners say after you
ran around the room?"
They said my trouble was alcoholism"
"Of course they did. The next time you
go to be examined for a pension because
of rheumatism contracted in the service
YOU keep sober and have rheumatism, no
ma tier what the doctors tell you to do. You
can't run when you have rheumatism. And
the worse the day the worse your rheum-
atism will be and the better your chances
for a pension providing you don't take
anything to cure your rheumatism by the
time you get to the examiners rooms. Do
you suppose 1 tried to show the medical
examiners that 1 could get about on one
leg just as well as two when / applied for
a pension? Some men are born fools. You

Mr.. o. b. Stevens of Dawson. Ca, who
is a candidate for the Democratic nomi-

makes very modest announcement of the
fact. He names his qualifications, which
appear to be excellent, and expresses the
opinion that as rotation in office is a time
honored custom of the Democratic narty.
a change in the office of Commissioner
Of Agriculture might be a good thing for
the people.
1t may be that the politicians and court
house cliques who are fixing up states for
the nominating convention are taking into
consideration the fitness for office of the
candidates who are seeking nominations
and are mindful of that time-honored
custom TO which Mr.. Stevens calls atten-
ton, but we are rather inclined to think
they are doing nothing of the kind. Fit
ness and custom don't count for much with
them. If Mr.. Stevens expects the people
to speak out in his favor and name dele
gates who will support him. ne will have
to get out among the people and do a
good deal of hustliug for delegates. If he
depends upon his qualifications and the
Democratic custom of rotation in office.

fee is not now an important crop in Ha-

From the Rome CGa) Tribune (Dem.).

Sanford b. Dole is one of a band of
white conspirators who overthrow The ma
tive government of Hawaii by fraud. and
established themselves in power Their
pretense at establishing republic was
a farce. They are despots, and Dole is
the chief of the crowd 1t is these con-
spirators. and not the people of Hawaii
who have asked that the country be an
neXed to the United States. They ask
that this country take the fruits of their
usurpauon. receive their stolen goods. as
1t were, and Mr.. Dole is on his way to
the United States 10 urge such action
Heroism and notabiity comes in queer
shapes these latter days. and Mr.. Dole is
a conspicuous instance. He is not the
kind of man the American people should
delight to honor, and the frantic efforts
of the annexation boomers 10 make a
noise must not be mistaken for popular
