every student and every statesman that

Ethe civilized world" We answer it is wave
of liberty. Itsis this wave of love for liberty
that inspired so many battle hymns at the
beginning of our war with Spain whose
notes were notes of prayer which God has
answered as he did this one.
Almighty God, thy power we now invoke
To lift from Cuba's neck the CALLING yoke.
To stay the hand of tyranny an hate,
To raise the sinking hearts of those who wait
In hunger and in pain. Uplift US Lord,
To mighty deeds. and guide the sword
Of justice. Not for conquest nor for greed
We ask thy aid, but for the hearts that bleed
Beneath a tyrants hand. Let victory shed
light,
Whose glorious rays will dissipate the night
That folds people like chilling shroud.

An emblem fair of truth and liberty
Beneath whose folds all men are grand and
free.
Let vi( Tory make US humble in thy sight;
Let valour stand a synonym for right;
In Righteousness lend thy mighty hand,
And bless our efforts on the sea and land"

This way Gods taught his children
The price Of freedoms birth.

The price Of freedoms birth.
BY the necromancy of this dear fiar we
call to mind that these three hundred thous-
and patriots, to whom the very dust of their
country was dear, hate made the once
hostile grounds OF rebel states sacred by
their blood. That Arlington and Nashville
and Vicksburg each with their sixteen
thousand of the nations dead, are sacred as
the Catacombs of Rome
Yea, this necromancy OF the flag calls US
to remember that the children and the
grand children of both union and confeder-
ate heroes of the early sixties, inspired bv
the example of their sires, sprang forward
at their country's call in the later ninties to
follow the same flag in the first war ever
waged by state simply and only for
humanity's sake Yea, that by their volun-
tary death and burial on foreign soil the
islands of the sea have become sacred to
our memories. And as from the hill tops of
| these islands the star spangled banner floats
out to the breeze above their graves, it tells
the world of Americas determination that
men shall be free-though the price thereof
be blood
What precious associations gather round
this flag. On the hard won battle fields of
banner in the name of God. And where
have their descendants not carried it in con-
quest or protection: Through what clouds
of dust and smoke have men, haggard with
war, borne it aloft: Through storms of shot
and SHE'LL through fields of FIRE and blood.
It is the pride of its friends and the terror
of its foes. There is no country or sea it has
not visited. Under its peaceful folds Com
modore Perry opened the ports of Japan to
the commerce of the world and christian
civilization. And it was carried by Lieut..
Lynch on the first and until recently the
only boats that ever foated on the Jordan
and the Dead Sea. In the jungles of India,
in the forests of Africa, and on the burning
sands of Arabia, the traveller and the mis-
sionary unfurls its guardian folds and feels
secure. With what joy does the seaman and
tourist, gazing upon these.stripes, read in its
lines the glorious history of nation
founded upon the cardinal principle that all
men are born equal. What bursts of
magnificent eloquence it has called forth
from Webster and Everett. What lyric
strains from Drake and Holmes. How the
oppressed of earth flock under it's protec-
ton. Hated only by tyrants, but loved by
philanthrophists. il is to all who sigh for
truth and Righteousness the symbol of
liberty.
Consider with me this meaning OF our flag
as it stands the symbol of the nations life.
Our nation, conceived in liberty and born
on the bloody bed of war, was welded for
ever to individual freedom by Him who
bringeth nations to their birth and giveth
them to whomsoever he will. He has
called US into being for this great purpose.
And it seems to some of his purposes are
ripening fast For years thinkers every
where have seen that the world is moving

A good story is tod by one of the Off

city which illustrates either the unlim-
tied nerve development of certain per-
son or else his guileless innocence, says
the Jacksonville Times Union.
The gentleman in question had been
cited to the court to be adjudged a bank
rupt under the laws of the United States.
His schedule of liabilities, however. made
but poor showing, compared with the
list of his debts, and taking advantage of
his privileges, he had aunounced his in
tention of claiming his fun rights of ex-
emption. This exemption to a person in
his situation in life amounts to ST. 600 His
entire property reached a total of 1850 or
$40 less than the exemption allowed.
He thereupon requested an order from
Judge Locke that his creditors be re-
qured 10 make up to him the forty miss
ing dollars, in order that he might have
the full benefits allowed for the exemp-
ton. The lawyers quietly retired, and
among themselves voted to him the palm

PREPARING FOR \ BIG ENTER
T4INMENT.

The Record of Philadelphia speaks of
the criticism of the efforts which have
been made in that city TO raise the 100000
required to meet the pledge 10 the Repuo-
hcan National Committee as being clumsy
and ignorant. Tht Record may be right
about the matter There never was Of
course any doubt that the necessary mon
ey TO get the convention would be forth
coming. Philadelphia is a very rich city.
There are many men living within its lin
It's who would give the entire amount be
fore they would permit it to be said that
the Quaker City took bigger bite than it
could masticate.
1T is probable that there was hesitation
about giving at first. because those who
were depended upon to give The most lib
orally wanted to know who were going to
have the handling of the money. Phil
adelphia has a great many very estima-
BILE citizens. but she has about the Tough
est lot of local Republican politicians to
be found within the bounds of the United
States. What they do not know about the
immoral side of politics is not worth know
ing
The 100000 fund is to be raised from
people OF all shades of political belief. 1t
was but natural therefore that before the
subscribers parted with their money they
should want 10 know whether or not the
average Republican heeler would have
charge of the fund. Now that it has been
settled that the money will go into trust
worthy hands and Will be spent for the
object for which it is 10 be collected there
is not much trouble being experienced in
getting subscriptions.
According TO the Record the Philadel-
pha people expect 10 make the delegates
feel they are among friends during their
stay in the city. 1t says the amount
subscribed for convention expenses will be
but fraction of what the convention viii
cost the people of the city. From this it
is to be inferred that there is a vast
scheme on hand for the entertainment of
delegates and visitors.
Generally the object in view in inviting
great political convention to a city is to
get the money the delegates and visitors
spend. This is not the case so far as
Philadelphia is concerned if the Record
is authorized to speak for the city.
NO tnflIty ulOuSnI mas entered tne
minds of the placid Quakers. And yet,
in most matters, they are thought to be a
rather thrifty people always looking out
for the dollar. 1t seems, however, that in
this instance they want it understood that
the delegates and visitors are to be their
guests 1t is certain that there will be
good many delegates from the South who
viii not object to this arrangement. In
national conventions in the past the col
ored delegates from the South have been
taken care of-at least the understanding
is that the most of them have-and they
would think it rather remarkable if there
should be an exception to the rule this
year. If the Republican managers are
alarmed lest Philadelphia fail to comply
with its contract they may dismiss their
fears. If its citizens, however, do not prove
TO be quite as thrifty as the citizens Of
other cities in which great political CON
ventions have met there will be quite gen
eral surprise.

of their mythology, but more probably it
takes its name for Saturn. 1t would seem

COL. LESTER Challenged.

There is a man in Omaha who desires
to puncture the anatomy of the honored
Congressman from the First Georgia dis
trict This he wishes to do by way of vim
dicatng his beloved country, Great Bri-
tain, and proving to the world that an
other man, at present many thousands of
miles away in South Africa, is a prevari-
Gator
The angry gentleman in Omaha is nam
ed Dalton-R. Grant Dalton. The man
ner in which he parts" his name would
be sufficient to indicate his nationality
if there were nothing else to show it. The
occasion of Mr. Dalton's anger is the
publication some days ago of the letter
which Col. Lester received from Mr.. T.
B. Hodges, formerly of this city, who Is
now in johannesburg. The letter, it will
be remembered, was printed in the Morn
ing News. Indeed. we have published
several direct communications from the
same source, most of them of about the
same tenor as that which Mr. Hodges
sent to Col. Lester. The letter to the
Congressman was rather a scorcher of
the British, but it was not nearly so hot
as it might have been if Mr.. Hodges had
had time TO throw a little more soul and
a few additional adjectives into it. The
mail was Just closing" as Mr..
Hodges wrote, so he had to hur-
ry. We have noticed by the way
that the mail was Just closing
each time Mr. Hodges wrote to the
Morning News. and in view of the verbal
fireworks which he managed to get in
during the limited space of time at his
disposal, we have wondered what he would
have said If he had started to write sew
eral hours ahead of the closing of the
mail.
At all events, the hurriedly written let
ter of Mr.. Hodges to Col. Lester went on
to characterize the war of the British
against the Beers as cruel, unjust and
damnable." 1t had been brought about
he said, by wrong upon wrong and lie
upon lie perpetrated' by certain Brit
ish mlllionaires and politicians upon the
noble Boer race" 1t was a most terri
bic and unholy war" Having read Mr..
Hodges arraignment Mr.. r. Grant Dal-
ton of Omaha was moved to mighty
wrath. Whereupon he took his pen in
hand and wrote to an Omaha newspaper:
Il make this assertion, viz, that T. b.
Hodges is a liar" And he indicated that
he was anxious to fight somebody, 10
prove the correctness Of his characterized
ton Of Mr. Hodges. Presumably he would
prefer to demonstrate the truth upon the
person of Hodges himself. but since that
gentleman is in johannesburg and it is
quite step from that town to Omaha,
he invites Col Lester to present his cor
pus as a guarantee Of Hodges veracity,
OF rather as IA sacrifice for his temerity
in twisting the British Hons tail
1t is not in the least likely that Col.
Lester will take any notice of the belll-
cose Bnton of Omaha but in case he
should be inclined TO give the matter a
thought. as the challenged party he would
have the right Of choice of weapons. and
he could hardly do better than to select
bean-shooters at approximately 1900 miles.
or the distance from Washington to
Omaha.

If he pays his check with a quarter or

of being asked for the over change. If

him if did not over-pay him in making
