Old Glory Hauled Down.
News and Observer.

News and Observer.
Or all the silly appeals to a
sickly sentimentality about
the flag, the sorrlest has been
the sopholncric 'declar atoms
that "where the American
flag is once raised it shall new
or come down. And yet, in.
the presence OF patriotic A.
mericans, by direction of
President Roosevelt and the
unanimous voice OF Congress
the American flag was pulled
down in Cnba-"the gem of
the Antilles" 1t was done
with the approval OF the A.
mpriean people and their
good wishes for the prospsri-
ty and glory of the Cuban
Republic. The flag is doing
it's divinely appointed work
where it is helping to make
Republics. A few days ago,
when the conference report
on the CMban Diplomatic bill
was pending in the Senate.
this debate took place MS re-
ported IN the Washington
Post:
"Mr. Hoar, of Massachu.
setts, enquired what title was
given to the Cuban govern.
ment in the bill.
The republic OF Cuba" re
piled Mr.. Cullom.
"And is the American flag
to he taken down from the
iSland?' enquired Mr.. Hoar.
III suppose so, of course"
responded Mr.. Cullom.
IL thought we had been
toid,' facetiously remarked
the Senator, "that when the
American flag had once been
raised over territoryit would
always stay there" -
Who will say that Mr..
Roosevelt and the members
of Congress, who authorized
the hauling down Of Old Clio
ry in Cuba are traitors to
their country and enemies Of
the flag? They were never
truer friends of the creed OF
the flag than when it came
down from Moro Castle to
make way for the flag of the
Cunan Republic. And the
men who advocate pursuing
the same course in the Philip
pines that has marked our
course in Cuba are just as
true to Old Glory and to A.
merican ideals and to Ameri
can traditions. 1t is the men
who deny liberty to the Fill
pinOs who are untrue to tho
teachings of the flag.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent.

From our Regular Correspondent.
There isevery evidence that
the Hon. Mark Hanna will
carry the sobriqnet "Subsi-

enth Congress has the junior
Senator from Ohio made a
speech in the Senate, once

ted the ship subsidy bill and
once this week when he rose
MP to support a till which
granted a subsidy estimated
at 81, 200, 900 to the Penn.
sylvania Railroad Company.
This bill, which provides for
a union railway station in
Washington, grants to the
company named funds and
concessions which the nttor-
neys Of the company them
selves admit to be worth $4
700, 900. The whole history
of Congressional legislation
in which the company named
has been interested is Of the
most unsavory character but
tLis bill is the most infa nous
of all the measures so far
passed and the circumstanc.
es which attended the pas

ing there was manifest a very
general determination to re-
turn the bill to the commit
tee which framed it and a
vote at that time would have
undoubtedly 40 resulted but
the friends of the bill secured
the postponement of the vote
until Thursday. What hap.
pened in the interim | can
not ascertain but on Thurs.
day morning, at an hour
when ordinarily but few Sen.

all were in their seats and by

1t is with no little enjoy,
m"nt that the democrats
view the present discomfpit-
nre of their opponents. The
republicans are facing IA seri-
ons division of opinion in
their own ranks and which
faction will win no one can
definitely predict. The oppo
nents Of Cuban reciprocity
are determined that the 18th
mian canal bill shall t Il k e
precedence over the former
measure when the Philippine
bill ia disposed OF. Senator
Platt, manage of the Cuban
bill, is not yet sufficiently
sure Of the support which a
straie hit reciprocity billwould
secure i'm the Senate to urge
its Immediate consideration
and he apprecIates that if he
reports the bill as passed by
the House, while it will re-
reive the un aimous support
OF the democrats, the friend
ship of the S1parT Trust would
he forfeited. The only way
out of the dilemma would be
adjournment aS soon as the
Philippine bill and and the
two remaining appropria-
tion bills are passed but the
obstacle to that urse,
which is heing considered, is
