fcatlons. which they holi {, b. prohi-
biuve. The principal terms of the
agreement which must be complied with
20 render a tender possible are As fol-
lows:
1.-The company must contribute TO
The government four per cent n the
gross earnings Of the road, said per-
centlge 20 Be a irs; charga on the
railway.
2--An contracts mus, be submitted TO
the Lieutenant governor in council for
his approval and all materials used in
construction of the road must b. sub
iact to similar approval.
3-No aliens must be employed in con-
struction unless it can b. shown 10 the
government in council that the road
cannot be built without recourse to
them.
A daily ferry must be operated to
some point on Vancouver island from
the mainland
THE rates are to be subject TO the
supervision Of the government in coun-
ell.
The Victoria. Vancouver & Eastern
promoters say ,h3t the imposition Of the
first mentioned clause would Be 10 sad
die the scheme with an incubus which
would b. fatal 70 floating The neces-
sary loan. They also allegr that the
condition would be rspugnant to the
domiEl9ns statute. which provides that
running expenses must De first charges
on the earnings. Bondholders would
also object to any other charge taking
precedence Of theirs. Four percentage Of
the gross. they say. would mean about
u per cent Of the net earnings. The
provision relating to aliens is also con-
sidered superhuous and ul,ra-vires Of
the province. as dominion laws prohibit
the employment Of aliens.
70 Victorians there is some disap-
pointment in the fact that although
provision is male for daily ferry, Vic
tOria is not mentioned as one Of the
terminals Of that railway and under
the specifications some other island
point might be selected. 1t is felt in
some quarters that the conditions would
rot be accepted even by the Canadian
Pacific railway and tina. no tender will
be made for 1t and the building Of the
road be deferred.

FLAGS GALORE.
Will BE Furnished Every SchoolnouSt
in Porto Rico and Philippines.

CHICAGO. March 2s-The Tribune
says:
American flags. nearly two tons OF
them. have been contracted for in Chi
cago with rush orders" that on July
A. the red, white and blue may 1utter
from every schOolhouse in Porto Rico,
teaching the lesson Of independence to
young and old in the island.
The plans of the government are tnat
by the end of the year the flag Will
be familiar sight in the towns and
villages of the Philippines. The order
OF the government calls for flags Of all
sizes-small ones that the children can
wave from windows or carry through
the streets and into their homes and
large flags to float from flagstaffs and
building roofs over the heads Of march
ing troops and citizens on the day they
are learning to celebrate.
Each island prototype Of the little
red school house will have a complete
outfit of national flags There will
be flags for the pupils. flag TO drape
above the teachers desk and flag to
fiutter over the schOolhouse yard. The
purpose Of the government at Wash
ington in giving the order is to secure
sufficient flags to supply every point on
the island devoted to educational pur-
poses, that patriotism may be inst,l!ed
into the minds Of the pupils by sight
as well as by teaching. The plan is
simply carrying out one inauguratei
in the United States several years ago
of flying the American flag from every
schoolhouse throughout the land during
class hours.
Teachers from Porto Rico who Wis
tied Washington and the other East
ern cities last fall were all advocates Of
the plan to make the flag a famil-
lar sight in the islands. They asserted
that the moral effect would be helpful
and arouse enthusiasm in the minds
of the children.
Similar arrangements, it is under
stood. are under way for the placing of
a large order OF flags for the Phil
ipplnes.
