SCOTT NTY.
The Spring Observation-Disclosures
The Wheat Outlook.

GATE CITY, February T.-(Special)-
In a mass-meeting here the Democrats Of
Scott county decided TO hold a convention
at a date TO be fixed by the County Com.
mittee TO nominate candidates for the
various offices TO be filed at the MAY
election. Already much interest is being
manifested and the aspirants are hume
rOus. The contests. so far as can be
fOrPseen. will be friendly and conducted
in a fair and manly way. AT present the
most interesting contest is that over the
nomination for the County-Court clerk
ship. b. f.. Johnson, incumbent, and VIII
G.. Stevenson are seeking the honor, with
apparently pretty even chances. They are
both popular and influential young men.
and each has a strong following. . W.
Carter. who has given eminent satisfae-
ton as Sheriff, seeks denomination, with
several already announced against him.
None Of the other county officials are
aspiring TO denomination.
Ii is not known yet what course the
%Republicans will pursue. but their leaders
assert that they will have a full ticket
I'm the field. Ii IL believed that their plan
is 10 unite on Independent Democrats for
some of the Offices, particularly those OF
Sheriff and commemorative Attorney.
All the county Offices are now held by
Democrats except that of Commemorative
ATTORNEY.
The wheat crop Of this county is claim
ed by the farmers 10 be less promising
than il has been before for several years.
The acreage is small and the unfavorable
foU kent back what was sown. II is hoped
that the present snow will be beneficial

The stars and Stripes.

To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
Please explain what the stars and
stripes on the United States flag repre-
sent.
Yours truly, w. SMC.
Fort Lewis. Va.
on June a, III, an act Of Congress was
passed as follows: THAT the flag Of the
thirteen United states be thirteen stripes,
alternate red and white; that the Union
be thirteen stars, white in a blu field,
re-resenting a new constellation; this
was supplemented by an act of April II,
1913. which provided that upon the admis-
sion Of every new State into the Union a
new star should be added to the union
Of the flag.
BY the foregoing it will he seen that
the thirteen stripes represent the thir-
teen original States, and the stars the
actual number of states now comprising
the United States.

Leo Takes Part in Mass at St

London, April 1s.-The Rome CORE
spondent of the Daily News describing
the Thanksgiving mass yesterday at
st. Peters cathedral, says:
'When the pope came into view the
ance of ghost when his face, over
came discernible, with the dark eyes
hands trembled violently and sad
lIolbein might have painted him then
as the personifcation of the vanity OF
human splendor.
with his left hand he waved sad
greetings, while his right did it's feeble
best to mark the act of blessing. Dur
ing the mass he sat with folded hands.
Twice he rose and he was supported
while he knelt in prayer, reading the
benediction. His voice was scarcely
audible, but in the absolute silence his
first words were caught by the as
sembled multitude. !.
He tried to raise himself, but fell
back and pronounced the remainder oil

The Rome correspondent of the

trast between the glittering ceremony
and the debilitated figure of the pope
more painful than moving" says:

terday. 1t was the first time the MEM
bers of the commission had come to-

for discussing the Samoan topic in it's
general phases. The members will
make no effort to keep together on the
way to San Francisco. Mr. Eliot, the
British member left yesterday after
noon; Mr.. Trip left last night; Baron
Sternberg will leave this afternoon.
The commissioners are arranging to be
gone about four months.
The instructions to the commissions

summed up by the high commissioners
substantially as followsi
The commission is given complete
authority to carry on II provisional
government for Samoa. In doing this
the instructions carefully prescribe

sion is required to make reports upon

cent collisions and the causes leading
up to them; also as to the admission
of the islands, the rights of the several
claimants to the kingship. also as to
what changes are desirable i'm the
methods provided by the treaty of Ber-

without referendum, except when it
snspends a provision of the treaty of
Berlin. In that case, also, Il provision
of the treaty may be suspended by
unanimous agreement of the members,
but the suspension is at referendum,
and is not finally binding until the
three governments approve or disap-
prove it. The extent to which the
treaty can be temporarily suspended
is not quite clear and one of the com
missioners said yesterday that it would
require consultation among the com
missioners to make this point certain.
The instructions are broad enough to
include the recent troubles. the bonn
bardment. fighting, arrest of the Ger

phases as we'll as the general govern
ment of Samoa will be adjusted with
