Significance Of Flag Day.

The Stars and Stripes will ever be
he emblem of a free and liberty-lovins
people and to this end the rising gem
Grafton cannot receive too much IN
struction as to its true position IN the
heart of every American citizen, SAID
Mr.. William f. Penn. of Cincinnati, at
the Shoreham. last evening
The setting aside of day as flag
Day, in which the significance OF the
stars and Stripes as the emblem OF lib
erty can be discussed before the school
children of this great Republic. should
strike responsive chord in the heart
of every American citizen.
The flag for which thousands have
bIcd and died and the flag which has
seen the stars in its blue field increase
from thirteen to forty-tive, should be
honored and revered by the old and
young alike and the children Of this
great Republic can never be taught 100
young to understand and appreciate its
true significance as the emblem of one
OF the greatest nations of the civilized
world"

Quay's Victory in Pennsylvania.

Sucy FillOiJ III Z SHHSy ifdAld-
Senator Matthew Stanley Quay is
certainly the man of the hour in Penn
sylvania." said Attorney Henry c. Watts.
Of Philadelphia, at the Shoreham last
evening.
His victory at the State convention
is further evidence of the senior Sena-
tors hold on mis- constituents, and the
confidence and esteem in which he is
held by the people generally throughout
the keystone State
THE nomination of Judge Samuel w.
Pennypacker. of Philadelphia. as the
standard bearer of the Republican party
this fall, was not only wise choice on
the part of Senator Quay, but has done
more to reconcile the warning factions
in the Republican ranks than anything
since Governor Pattison was last nomi-
mated and elected as the chief executive
OF Pennsylvania.
From the present outlook, 1t appears
TO be almost a moral certainty that Gov
ernor Pattison will again be the choice
of the Democracy of Pennsylvania to
carry the ticket to a possible victory,
but with such stalwart Republican as
Judge Pennypacker at the head Of the
Republican ticket. it is as much OF
moral certainty that the Republicans
will carry the State at the polls this
fall by a handsome majority.
The twelve years that Judge Penny
packer has served on the bench has only
attested 30 his integrity. and as the
chief executive OF Pennsylvania he can
do nothing but give the State fair,
clean. and spotless administration.

UNDER THE CAPITOL DOME
Mr.. Morgan as a Placebo.

''Placebo "A medicine calculated
rather to please than to benefit the
patient; sugar pill
Mr.. Morgan the other day. during his
most recent canal speech, somewhat
sarcastically informed the Senate that
he had been appointed chairman Of the
Committee on Interoceanic Canals as a
"placebo" to the Democratic party.
The remark, perhaps, passed over the
heads of most of the Senators present,
but his veteran colleague. Senator Hoar,
was not to be fioored by the word. 1t
came trippingly off his tongue in quick
retort:
The Republican party appointed the
Senator chairman of that committee,
and not as a placebo to the Democratic
party, but because he is one of the
greatest living Senator's and one of the
greatest authorities on one of the
greatest subjects that has ever been
considered by the Senate he said.
The exact significance of the word,
however, eluded the Senators generally.
and in the press gallery, also. there
was much surmise as TO the meaning
of the Expression.

"Close Behind the Ears"

Uncle Joe Cannon, chairman of the
House Committee on Appropriations.
whose word is law with reference to ap-
preparation matters. has killed two big
bills this week. They carried millions.
In speaking against both measures he
employed favorite phrase that is fatal
to every measure against which it is in
voked-that he would cut of the ami
mails tail close up behind its ears
This expression, which is directed a.
the enacting clause, always provokes
the House to laughter. Representative
Moody of North Carolina, who has been
much amused at the expression, asked
him where he acquired it.
Il picked it up from the Quakers down
in Guilford county in your State, when
| was boy" Uncle Joe remarked.

The Flag.
BY JOHN A. JOYCE.

To the sunlight and the breeze.
While you hear its grand old story
Over land and stormy seas.
And you'll gather from its beauty
The great lesson everywhere
That those who do their duty
Are the heroes who will dare.
1t was born in blood of battle
When the glorious, rising sun
Ushered in the Euskets rattle
On the field of Lexington,
Where the red coats" found foeman.
Who. alert on hill or gorge.
Would bow the knee to no man
Or the minions of King George.
And Paul Jones of glorious memory.
The great captain Of the sea.
From the masthead of Ronhomme
Flew the flag for you ard me.
And captured the Scraps
Upon the English shore.
Defeating pirate tyrants
On the seas forevermore.
And we see it waving proudly
Over Yorktown and the James,
Where Washington so loudly
With cannon voice proclaims.
Surrender. CORVALLIS.
With your raiding. robbing crew.
And drink the bitter chalice
To the red ard white and blue
And again we see ii futter
Ger the swamps of New Orleans,
Where the wounded red coats" mutter
Round those bloody, deadly scenes.
While brave jackson with his yeoman
On grounds so low and mucky
Routed all the British foeman
With his rifles from Kentucky.
And far across the mountains
Where the vine and cactus grow,
Amid dashing streams and fountains
On the plains Of Mexico,
"Old Glory" and its heroes
Swept the tyrant from his lair,
Destroyed the cruel Neros
That would chain the people there.
And we shall all remember
Until our dying day
The storms of wild December.
Where the rushing blue and gray
In deadly grapple battled
Over river. vale and crag.
Where cannon loudly ratified
For the triumph OF tie flag.
From Sumter unto Shiloh
From Vicksburg to the sea;
From Gettysburg to Petersburg.
With Meade and Grant and Lee.
The flag. though tern and tattered..
Unconquered yet remains,
Our Union still unshattered
Where love and law still reigns.
And over every ocean
Has kept its right Of way.
Alive with brave emotion
On TO far Manila Bay.
Where Dewey and his gunners
Wiped out the tyrant stain
Destroyed the naval runners
And the prestige of old Spain.
And up from Santiago
We bear the glorious cry
Where Spanish Don and Dago
Yield TO men who do or die.
And the flag must still 20 forward
Through many bloody scenes
To carry faith and freedom
To the far off Philippines.
Where boys in blue are bearing
"Old Glory" in the van
The pioneers OF daring.
For the liberty of man!

Kansas agitator. [volume] (Garnett, Kan.) 1890-1905, 1902-12-12

Emigration from the United States
to Canada has been attracting serious
attention in Europe as well as in this
country. 1t is attaining proportions
which justify surprise.
Investigation shows that within our
boundaries we have chiefly tenant
farmers who can never hope to own
their farms.
Why cannot our tenant farmers hope
to become owners of their farms? Ask
our tariff.
To enrich privileged classes Of our
manufacturers the Republican party
has impoverished our farmers in dull
times and diminished their profits in
prosperous times. Although land is
the chief source of wealth, the Repub-
lican party has defied the farmers in a
spurious theory of protection" and &C.
cumulated special legislation to en-
rich manufacturers at the expense Of
the farmers.
What with the tariff-increased price
of everything he had to buy and the
oppression of monopolies controlling
transportation rates, the American
farmer has remained for the most part
a mere tenant That his lot Is some
what better in good times than that
of tenant farmers in Ireland or Rus
STA is due to the vaster areas Of our
agricultural regions and the lighter
pressure of population upon space.
Were the tariff yoke removed from
the neck of the American farmer he
would not be a mere tenant. Land I'M
der a foreign monarch would offer no
attraction to him or his children.
