OLD GLORY HAULED DOWN.

OF all the silly appeals to a schly SEN
timentality about the flag, the sorriest
has been the sophomore declarations that
where the American flag is once raised
It never shall come down." And yet yes
terday, in the presence of patriotic
Americans, by direction of President
Roosevelt and the unanimous voice of
Congress, the American flag was pulled
down in Cuba-"the gem of the Antilles"
1t was done with the approval of the
American people and their good wishes
for the prosperity and glory of the Cuban
Republic. The flag is doing its divinely
appointed work where it is helping to
make Republics. few days ago, when
the conference report on the Cuban Dip
lomatic Bill was pending in the Senate
this debate took place, as reported in the
Washington Post:
Mr.. Hoar, of Massachusetts, inquired
what title was given to the Cuban gov
eminent in the bill.
THE republic of Cuba. replied Mr..
Cullom.
'''And is the American flag 10 be ia
ken down from the island?' inquired Mr..
Hoar.
81 suppose so, of course responded
Mr.. Cullom.
81 thought we had been told, face
tiously remarked the Senator, that when
the American dag had once been raised
over territory IL would always stay
there.
Who will say that Mr.. Roosevelt and
the members of Congress- who authorized
the hauling down of Old Glory 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
Cuban Republic. And the men who advo-
cate pursuing the same course in the
Philippines that has marked our course
in Cuba are just as true to Old Glory
and to American ideals and ito Ameri
can traditions. 1t is the men who deny
liberty to the Filipinos who are untrue
to the teachings of the flag.

WHAT THEY WILL LIE arm.

The party of congressman and others
who are being taken on a tour through
the black belt of the South by Repre-
sentative Thompson, of Alabama, will
learn more in that short trip about the
negro and the Southern conditions than
they have previously learned in a life
time. Mr. Thompson is a political school
master of the kindergarten method, and
believes in teaching by object lessons.
Speaking of the object of his visit he
said:
Il have hoped, that the Crun1packer
resolution to investigate the suffrage in
the South might be allowed to die, and
looking to this end have invited a num-
Der of leading and influential members
of Congress from the New England and
Western States, who have no practical
knowledge of the real conditions in the
South, to take a trip with me through
Alabama State which recently has
adopted a new Constitution regulating
the suffrage. and to mix and mingle with
a people who have striven and struggled
Under the difficulties and hardships since
Lee gave his sword to Grant at Apo
mattoX.'
We wish this party could be taken to
the counties of Warren. Halifax, Edge
combe, Northampton and BERTHE to study
the negro question there. They would
see that the best thing the friends of the
negro can do IS to encourage him in the
Industrial n,1rSuitS in which he is now
engaged. But they will visit like coun-
ties in Alabama and learn like truths.
The conception of the visit was an in
spiration. and it will do great good in
opening the eyes of men blinded by mis-
information.

THE EASTERN ASHEVILLE GAZ.
ETTE.

For many months, after it sold itself
out to the revenue ring, the Asbeville
Gazette posed as a Democrats paper. It
was not until State Chairman Simmons
exposed the infamy of the Gazette that
il sailed under its true colOrs. The Raj
eigh Post, long the Eastern organ of the
revenue dOodes and the Southern Rail-
way, is following step by step in the
day il featured an interview with Gov
ernor Russell, obtained by its staff cor
respondent, and a communication by Capt.
Day who is disciple of Russell, and

approval two columns from the Asheville
Gazette. the first a communication de-
noncing nine tenths of the Democrats of
the State: the second an approval of
Judge Boyd's reply to Senator Simmons

she rescued herself by taking Wine OF

million other women strong and healthy.
BY inducing regular menstruation the en-

returned to its proper and normal position.
With regular menstruatiOn the strain is

This is what Wine of Cardui has done in
thousands of cases.
Miss Margaret Robinson, of Bridges,

down pains but she was cured by Wine OF
Cardui also. She writes
"Before Using Wine of Cardui suffered
