HAULING DOWN THE FLAG.

We have given three of the
Philippine islands back to Spain.
Cayagap, Sulu and S.buta have
been returned to the power from
which we wrested them and the
sultan of the last named island
will cease to draw on the
treasury of the United States for
the support Of his harem and the
increase of his horde of slaves.
1t turns out that the three is
lands referred to were not includ-
ed in the treaty with Spain, though
our commissioners, who seem to
have been deplorabIy ignorant of
the geography of the archipelago,
undoubtedly believed they were so
included. Acting upon misinfor-
nation from those who should
have known better what they were
doing the United States authorities
took possession of these islands.
Now that our flag is to be hauled
down in these quarters there will
probably be a howl from those
wild lmperialists who are fond of
declaring that the flag once planted
remains forever.
The recession to Spain of three
irlands is not the first instance of
the Justification of that statement.
The United States flag has fire.

It was raised over territory in
Canada, but it was hauled down.
It was raised over the capitol of
Mexico but it was hauled DOWN.
was raised over Hawaii just be-
fore the end of President Harri-
sons administration but was
hauled down a few days later.
According to those who insist
that the flag shall never be haul
ed down we should have kept
three islands recently restored
to Spain whether we had any
right to them or not. We had the
power to do so and that seems
to settle the question of right
for the average imperialist. But,
sad to say, the flag has been
hauled down.

chairman of the committee on inter
state and foreign commerce, has made
the positive announcement that his
bill for the construction of the Nicar-
aqua canal will be taken up by the
House May l, and voted on the fol-
lowing day. The announcement was
the result of an understanding which

that it will be passed by an over

OLD SEA Dogs BARK.
Don't Like the New Rule Regarding
Steamship Captains.


Old sea dogs OF Hancock county are
aroused by new regulation adopted by
the board OF supervising inspectors OF
steam vessels, which requires that cap
tsins of steam vessels must first serve an
apprenticeship OF at least one year ON
steam vessel. THE AMERICANS West
Brooksviile correspondent, himself vet
ersn ship master, sends clipping from
the New York Herald, which contains
some pretty strong talk from ship mas
tiers. regarding the new regulation.
According to this remarkable regula-
tion a captain W DO has commanded clipper

The Bryanites seem to be growing
uneasy over Dewey's candidacy.
Perry Belmont's appearance in Wash

of the Dewey boom, and the report
that Croker, who is soon corning
home, had made deal with exSena-
tor Hill by which it is hoped to send
the New York delegates uninstructed
to the Kansas City convention, have
caused them to fear that Dewey may
be able to knock Bryan out of the

fess to he absolutely certain that
Bryan will head that ticket. Their
uneasiness is added 10 by reports of

Deer Isle correspondent slipped into

listened. By their log books every tenth
winter carries an average temperature
much higher than that Of other winters
that of 10 was mild and those Of 80 and
80 were each so warm that no ice could
be cut in Massa C husetts nor in any other
coast state excepting Maine. This win
ter we all know has been stormy and has
produced some very cold days, but Is one
OF the few winters in history " hen no ice,
permanent for the season, has formed III

ines said, has been a winter in which
vessels have not made good Time Two
vessels belonging here sailed toget her
from Boston for ports in Florida-the
commanders OF each are hustlers. One
vessel arrived out in good time, loaded
and ces red for home before the OF her one
WAS heard from. Ii ben looked as though
the first vessel would make her round
trip in halt the time that he OF her would.
But the leader, when bomewsrd bound,
was delayed in crossing the bar off ner
southern port, had bad weather and
head winds, with detention in the Vine
yard END around Chat ham. In The mean.
time he OF her vessel arrived out, loaded
quickly and without detention came fee
ing all the way towards home with the
very winds that were keeping the OF her
out of Boston bay. They finally arrived
in port wit hin few hours of each other.

The fact that as much has been paid
to foreign ship owners during the past
thirty five years as has been collected
at American custom houses is one
that loudly calls for the passage of the

turn our foreign carrying over to
