General Alger sent the following
reply to Mr.. Roosevelt:

"THE republicans say we can
not haul down the flag where it
has once been hoisted. If that is
true, how are you going to get the
flag away from Pekin? Our sol
diers are there and carried the
stars and stripes with them, and if
your doctrine that whenever the
flag floats over a land the land
can not be given back is true, you
cannot get your soldiers away from
Pekin, and il you follow the doc
trine that you followed in Manila,
you have got to take the whole
Chinese empire, because we took
all the islands of the Philippines,
and II that doctrine is true we have
got to take the 400, 900, 900 sub
jects over there. 1t is a thousand
times better to haul down the flag
in the Philippine islands and raise
the flag Of the Philippine republic
than to change our flag from the
flag of the republic to the flag of
an empire. w. ]. BRYAN.

Three Couples From Spokane United

Three Couples From Spokane United In
Rathdrum.
The matrimonial market has ex-
perienced quite boom during the
past week and Justice Dyer was busy
for a couple of days tielng nup-
tial knots. Cupid must be kept
pretty busy stringing his bow these
days in Spokane, and his arrows seem
to hit the bull's-eye with commend
able regularity, as most Of the con-
tracing parties hail from the city by
the FALLS.
On Tuesday, Il. j. Armstrong, "A
Chicago travelling man, was united in
the holy bonds Of wedlock to Mrs.
p. E. Tonkin Of Spokane, the happy
couple leaving for the latter city on
the evening train.
On Wednesday, Volney O. Rollins
and Mrs. E. NJ. Enos, both of Spo-
kane, were made man and wife. the
groom being one of the popular young
members of the fire department of
that city.
On the same day another young
couple, Mr.. ID. j. Wright and Miss
Grace II. Mullen, also OF Spokane,
were united in marriage. The first
Two ceremonies took place in the par
lors of the Wright house, while the
last was solemnized at the residence
OF Justice Dyer, who set all three
couples afloat on the sea of matrimony.

A NEWS item says: "The Japa-
.nese government has prohibited all
emigation of Japanese laborers to
the United States"
The Japanese government has
taken the above course in order to
keep that country from being de-
populated OF It's fighting men wlro
were coming to this country in
swarms under the benehcent rule
OF the trusts and Mckinley. 1t
would seem that if the laboring
men of the United States are to be
relieved from the evil of cheap Jap
competition, they will have to rely
upon the Japanese government,
as this trust born, trust run, dyed
in-the-wool trust administration is
powerless to do anything for them,
even if it was so inclined.
