THE FLAG FoREvERl

While Mckinley, Hay and the whole
Cabinet are shouting: Don't lower
the nag!" at Manila, their dear friends
and allies, the British say, Pull down
that flag at Pyramid Harbor, Alaska,
or never more play in our English
backyardw Hay is numbering, Nc
Kinlcy is wringing his hands. and
Hanna is advising that W might as
well fold and furl the stars and stripes,
for good and all, everywhere. and let
the dear British take us again under
that admirable rule of theirs.
What's to be done about 1t, any
how? Having been nicely BAN
boozed by British diplomacy into do
ing Il lot of foolish and wicked things
for England, we must still please her,
even if we do have to cringc to
Paunccfote at Washington and in
struct Choatc to lick the dust from
Salisbury's foot in London. Pyramid
narbor is ours, as 1T was Russia's,
from whom we bought it honestly
with no other claimant in sight. 1t
Is a Pacific Harbor; but before the
American people will surrender 1t to
Great Britain, or permit Mckinley and
Hay to pull down the flag, they'll
make it very unpacinc harbor and
make it so hot for "outlanders" and
Tories that 1t will melt all the ice in
Alaska. Yes: our flag shall never be
the bully of the weak and the poltroon
of the strong; but 1t shall neither rob

MANY DREYFUSES.

rare as some writer's on the Dreyfus
case suppose. Every community has its
one Dreyfus, at least, il not others. AS
q rule, they die, and make no sign; or
they Give it down." That very phrase
and its significance tell the tale of
wrong OF which Drcyfus was but no
table example; aye. a fortunate exam
pie, in many respects lie knew what he
was charged with having done; he
was confronted with his accusers; he
had IL public trial. and then q re-trial;
his wife, his family and his friends
were devoted and faithful to him;
even party was formed to defend and
vlndicate him: the world heard his
story ond sympathized with him; and
with all his wrongs and sufferings, he
had his consultations and compensa-
lions.
Others are condemned, convicted and
punished without n hearing; aye, even
without knowing what is the charge. or
the accuscrs. History mentions some of
these; but there were and are num-
erous obscure victims who are forced
TO suffer in silence: cruelty abandoned
by oil; even friends and kindred turn
Ing their backs. Dreyfus was fortunate,
and many a man to-day envics him the
opportunities he has had. but Drey-
fuses are more numerous than tbe,r

That item in the Virginian- Pilot, tell
ing of how. when the nerveless hand
Of the hero who drew his sword for
Virginia, dropped it in the sea, Vir-
gnian oyster grasped it's hilt, inspires
the imagination and refreshes patriot
ism. Old Uncle Specks Hodges used to
tell us that the oyster knew one i'm
portant thing much better than many
folks, and that was when and how to
keep his mouth shut. But when the
bivalve seizes the sword Of pre-d eceased
valor, and guards it as sacred relic,
if he cannot use It, we can conceive
that not only may an oyster be crossed
in love. but be filled with pearls OF
great price in his Voiccless soul. This
oyster that grasps the sword, however,
speaks to us as n native, appealing to
every true Virginian to protect him
from the foreign mercenaries now band

The anxiety OF the Sampson naval,
political. journalistic and personal
factionists to induce Admiral Schley
to surrender himself into their hands,
to be court-martialed by them on
charges invented and trumpet up by
them, shows that we have in this
country a class of persons of the same
mood and temper as of those who
disgraccd France and human nature
by their persecution of Dreyfus. If
they could only get Schley into their
tolls, they would repeat here the
shameful proceedings that brought
odium on France and ignominy on all
engaged in the inhuman prosecution
of an innocent man, as q sacrifice to
the supposed honor of an army whose
culprits were the witnesses and prose-
cutors who sought to destroy Dreyfus
to shield themselves. So. If they can,
they will here pretend that Schlcy, the
glory of the navy, should be buried in
