From an interview a newspaper
reporter had with Hon. J. G. Spencer,
who is candidate in the seventh
congressional district for congress, it
would appear that he regards his
chances quite favorable. He and
Hon. f. A. McLain are the only can
didates in that district, and since the
latter gentleman is now the represen-
alive of the people in the district,
and since he has given them such
valuable service, it will be a hard
matter for any other man to beat
him. However Mr.. Spencer is a
very strong man in that district.

The Oxford Eagle makes the unique
proposition that the lands in
that section be leased to the county
and that the county force the lazy
Migrants of the county to work them
A year or two ago the crops in that
section were complete failure and
most of the negro farmers packed
their bags and left fer the delta,
since the land has not been cultiya-
ted as labor could not be had fer love
or money, though the towns are full
of loafers. Now the Eagle proposes
that the idle people be made to go to
work and that the county put them
on these farms which have not been.

That sort of thing is no more than
might be expected of incurable beers
like Tillman, but nobody conld eX-

man of ability, and gentleman, and
heretofore he has been mindful OF
the obligations resting upon him as
such.
No doubt the words and manner Of
Beveridge were extremely irritating,

tesy in the heat of debate. But un-
der no circumstances could a senator
be excused for committing any act of
personal violence upon IeIloW sen
ator in the senate chamber or any
where in the capitol.
Such incidents as that of yesterday
lower the measure of respect that
should attach to the office of senator
and tend to loosen the ties that bind
the people to our fern of govern
ment That they iniure the aggres-
sor in the case in public estimation,
goes without saying. 1t is especially
unfortunate for the south that the
first blow is always struck by some
representative of this section.
Bailey should be disciplined more
severely than Tillman was, because
he is man of good breeding and in
no degree the born bully and brawler

Raising the Sea of Azov.

The Sea Of Azov, an arm Of the
Black Sea, Is to be improved for nayi-
cation by novel method. 1t Is joined
to the Black Sea by the Strait Of
Kertch, which Is about two miles wide
and possesses n maximum depth Of
twenty-seven feet. But at the various
ports along It's shores the depth Of
water varies only from five feet to four
teen feet Every effort thus far made
by the Government to maintain chan
nels for seagoing craft has been I'M
awaiting, and it has been necessary to
maintain a costly system OF Tightening.
1t Is proposed, therefore, to get rid u
the latter by raising the level Of the en-
tire sea, through the construction of q
dam across the Strait of Kertch. This
dam will raise the water high enough
to give twenty feet Of water in all Of
the ports. A large amount Of shore
property will have to be protected, and
compensation for damages to existing
harbor work Will be included in the
bill of expenses.-San Francisco Chron-
lcle.

THE AMERICAN FLAG.
AS 1t Appeared Long Before Betsy
Ross Made One

As 1t Appeared Long Before Betsy
Ross Made One.
Few persons have noticed the inter
esting evolution on our flag of the
stripes and stars as depicted In the
Armory of the Ancients at the top OF
old Faneuil Hall. Most persons are ia
miIiar with the story of Mrs. Ross and
the making of the first flag of the free.
But evidently 1t was not Mrs. Ross who
originated the idea Of stripes.
Down In the armory Of the Ancients
you will see first the broad red flag
with the old English cross In It's field.
Next very similar flag, except that
the broad red becomes broad blue, with
no red but in the cross itself on the
white field Next the white flag with Its
pine tree and Appeal to Heaven"
whence came our own State banner.
Then it would appear that the fathers
went back again, for the next flag has
the red and white longitudinal stripes,
but in the field there are the crosses
of st. George and st. Andrew, worked
out In red upon white ground. The
next flag restores the blue to the field
1t, too, has the longitudinal red and
white stripes and the combined crosses
Of St George and st. Andrew, as in the
British Jack, worked out in red and
white upon blue field. 1t was not till
after that, upon the assertion of indie
pendence by the colonies, that Mrs.
Ross flag appeared, and apparently she
only substituted for the double crosses
the circle of thirteen stars upon the
blue field.
The red, white and blue and the red
and white stripes were all in the flag
generations before Mrs. Ross was
| born, as the collection of the Ancients

ANOTHER REMARKABLE CASE

Vogeler's Curative Compound soon put
me on my feet again: In fact, completely

Mrs. Nettleton said: II have recon-
mended Vogeler's Curative Compound for
indigestion and eczema, and in every case
1t has proved cure, beyond doubt. Mr.
Swinbank, our chemist, has sent me the

NBW fl)Ik, ness was not marred by any
l----------- II n t o ar developments
during the last week. The statistics
which best indicate the course of trade
hoh true to the early promise of improv
ing conditions. Favorable reports come
from all sections Of the West, and while
prices are easier for some products, man
ufacturing establishments are generally
well supplied with orders That the
business world is without special incident
OF disaster in this time when people are
still asking whether great prosperity
will abide longer in this country is good
sign.
1t is Of the highest Importance that all
features of the iron and steel trade re-
main bright as regards present and future
trade. The heavy demands of railroads
for steel rails tax the facilities of the
mills to such a point that the total out
put for 1902 is almost entirely sold in ad-
vance. Under these circumstances it
will be strange if more independent
plants are not built. One large road is
reported to have placed Il rail order with
foreign manufacturers, and others may
be compelled to do the same. The bridge
and structural company of the United
States Steel Corporation is planning the
construction of more plants, so heavy has
its business become.
The coke situation improves steadily
and is much better in the Chicago dis
trict. Wire and wire nails are firm at
the advanced prices, and there is some
talk of another meeting, which suggests
the possibility of another raise. Western
bar iron manufacturers have added ~ a
ton to the price of bar iron. Eastern
manufacturers have made an advance of
81 ton on the same product and as the
Western has been lower than the Eastern
price quotations now are alike in both
sections. The ore association has fixed
the price Of BeSSemer old range as
base of $4.25 ton, unchanged from last
years quotation.
Spring jobbing trade will be enormous
in volume, buyers showing more conf
dence in making purchases. The London
sales Of wool gave iirmneSs to the prices
here, but holders hope for higher quota
tions. Yarns are steady but without ma
terial change Print cloths are firm and
are held closely. Staple cottons are firm,
but buyers purchase slowly. The raw
material has not improved on its previous
uncertain position. The leather trade
generally is in a satisfactory situation.
