TOOK ALL THE HONORs.

Akron took off her singed and batter
ed hat to the Canton militia company,
Thursday. When the Canton boys ar
rived, the News-Democrat's special
report says, there were a few jeers,
but no offer was made to molest the
courageous company. And these Can
ton young men deserved all that the
conservative element Of Akron's popu-
lation said of them. When they left
Canton reports were meagre as to the
conditions in Akron. Garbled accounts
of the doings had reached Canton but
no authentic story had come up to the
hour the company boarded the special
train and steamed away to the scene
Of The trouble. What the militiamen had
reason to believe was that the police
officers and the mayor were still penned
in the city hall with the negro rapist.
been taken to Cleveland and they ex-
pected to be met by bowling mob
when they reached Akron. Not one
finched. Their level-headed captain
gave them instructions as to their con-
duct and they obeyed to the letter. 1t
took courage and discipline to leave
homes to go to a neighboring city to
put down a riot, but they behaved like
veterans when the call came. 1t is re-
corded that not a Canton soldier who
got word to go failed to report at the
armory Some of them who were not
notified in time, even took later trains.
All of this shows how absolutely un-
necessary a great standing army in this
country really is. The civil soldier Is,
at least, the equal of the regular, Theo-
dore Roosevelt to the contrary notwith-
standing, and Canton has reason to feel
proud of the part she played in the
Akron affair. Knowing that they wouli

NOT OUT OF THE COUNTRY.

Canton, o., Aug. "a.
Editor News-Democrat:
"I had an argument with Republi-
can a few days ago who claimed that
Colonel w. j. Bryan was not out of the
United States while serving in the
United States army. Will you please
give us some light on this subject in
the columns of your paper?
"Oblige, yours truly,
"a SUBSCRIBER"
Colonel Bryan was purposely kept in
camp in the United States till the war
was over. He had raised a regiment
and offered it's services to the govern
ment. He was one of the first Of the
American people to offer his services to
his country but great care was exercis-
ed that he did not get an opportunity
to distinguish himself in the field. This
puny business was kept up to such an
extent that Mr.. Bryan never saw service
out of the United States. 1t was finally
agreed that he might go over to Cuba
and do garrison duty, after the war
had been over several weeks, but not
being a peace warrior he declined and
has since been serving his country by
making bare imperialistic perfidy.

wHo WILL HAUL 1T DOWN.

Earl Calvin Titus was the American
soldier who first planted the American
flag on the wall of Peking.
On the 18th inst. $500 Americans at
tackled the imperial palace and captured
' four courts, and before the close OF
that day the American flag was flying
over the imperial granary."
Now let us ask the question which
Nick nley himesf has asked more than
once: Who will propose to haul down
the American flag where it has once
been raised?
Discussing the matter the Chicago
Chronicle says that Mr.. Mckinley has
always asked this question in a defiant
tone, implying that 1t would be an act
Of treason which no American could
think of committing to propose to haul
down the flag from any place where II
has once been raised.
Then, does he propose to keep that
flag forever flying on the walls Of Pek-
ing and over the imperial granary in
that city? Not II he has been correctly
reported by the correspondents Of the
imperial organs. They have all along
been assuring us that he favors a Chi
nese government for the Chinese and
not an American or any other foreign
government for them.
They tell us that no longer ago than
Wednesday he reiterated his statement
to Ii Hung Chang that when the time
should arrive for peace negotiations he
would favor a settlement which would
assure "the preservation of Chinese ter
ritorial and administrative entity"
1t seems, then, that he himself de-
clares 1t to be his intention to haul down
the American flag in Peking. To keep
it flying there would be wholly in
compatible with that Chinese indepen-
dence and integrity he is said to favor.
Besides, other powers might have some
thing to say If he should attempt 10
keep it flying there as sign Of
American sovereignty over China and
its people.
The short of 1t is that there is no
treason in proposing to haul down the
American flag where it has been hoisted
unless the proposal is made by some
one who would haul 1t down where Mr..
wishes it to remain.
The American people think they have
q right to a voice in deciding where
the flag shall be raised and where 1t
shall stay. And they are likely to in
innate politely to Mr.. Mckinley that
they will decide where it shall be haul
ed down and that he only is guilty of
reason who resists their sovereign will.
