Origin of Confederate Flag.

General w. L. Cabell, Of Dallas, who
is the commander Of the trans-Missis-
sipp, Department of the United Con-
federate Veterans. has written what
he declares to be the true history Of
the Confederate flag. General Cabelrs
contribution to Confederate War his
tory is as follows:
when the Confederate army, COM
manded by General Beauregard, and
the Federal army confronted each
other at Manassas it was seen that
the Confederate flag and the stars and
stripes looked at distance SO much
alike that it was hard to distinguish
one from the other. General Beaure-
gard, thinking that serious mistakes
might be made liz recognizing our
troops, after the battle of the 18th of
July at Blackburn ford ordered that
small red badge should be worn on
the left shoulder of our troops, and,
as 1 was chief quartermaster, ordered
me to purchase large quantity of red
flannel and to distribute to each regi-
ment. I distributed the red flannel to
a number of regiments, who placed
badges on the left shoulders of the
men.
During the battle Of Bull Run it
was plainly to be seen that a large
number of Federal soldiers wore q
similar red badge. saw these badges
on a number Of prisoners we cap
tured that day. General John John

Signs of Revolt.

Signs OF AcNOits
The Republican platform adopted by
the State convention of that party in
Massachusetts, shows that the stand
patters" have possession of the ma
chinery of that party in every State
that has held a convention this year.
When they declare that tariff sched-
ules should be revised from time to
time" but blandly add that this is not
the time. but whenever industrial
conditions" call for it 1.-The work will
be undertaken by the Republican par
ty." That is equivalent to saying. so
far as the Massachusetts, Republicans
are concerned, that all tariff revision
is indefinitely postponed. The manu-
facturers who want free raw mate
rials, the people who are paying high
trust prices and the family of limited
income who finds the cost of living
enormously increased. are all told they
must bear these ills or worse may
come to them. Those New England
Republican congressman who have
sworn independence by voting with
the Democrats on several propositions
to reduce the tariff and suppress trust
extortion, find themselves outside of
the demands of their party and virtual.
ly told they had better behave them.
selves or the fate of all traitors will
VIII be theirs. There are signs that
the revolt against this trust domina-
tion is spreading in Massachusetts and
the voters want tariff reform now and
not in the indefinite future
The Democrats are making their
campaign on the tariff issue and the
prospects of large gains, if not the
election of their candidates for Gov.
ernor. are daily becoming more ap-
parent. The great mass of New En-.
gland voters are intelligent, and when
their material welfare is at stake then
devotion to party will not hold them.
The protected trusts are reported to
have provided large campaign fund
to overcome this revolt against theiI
friends, the Republican leaders, for
they feel that If Massachusetts should
show signs Of being sick of their ex.
tortions, the danger Of the revolt
spreading everywhere would indeed be
great.

The Nurses.

The ladies, heaven bless them. did
all they could to nurse and care for
the wounded soldiers. Many noble
women devoted all the years of the
war to this humane duty, but now and
then young ladies would drop into the
hospitals and play nurse in an anna
teur way for an afternoon, and it must
be said such girls were more orna-
mental than useful.
One of the girls became interested
in a good-looking soldier who was
wounded in the arms. and she adj
dressed him in this way:
MY brave friend, can do anything
for you:"
NO, madam, nothing" said the SOL
dier.
81 should like to do something for
you," she persisted; may 1 sponge
your brow?"
"Well,' he said, you may if you
want to very bad; but if you do you'll
be the thirty-ninth girl that's done
that blessed thing this morning."

OUR UNJUST TAX LAWS.
dubuque Times.l

Referring to this papers suggestion
that Governor Cummins should recon-
mend a registry tax on mortgages, a
proposition by Governor Odell which
the Legislature of New York has reject
ed, the Cedar Rapids Republican says:
Under the operation of the tax fer
rets most mortgages in Iowa on real
estate are now being taxed. If this
keeps UP the interest rate will probab-
ly be increased, for money will see
other fields of investment than Iowa,
thus forcing an increase in the rate,
and in the future 1t will put a greater
burden on the borrower; and as the
borrower of money on Iowa real estate
is usually q MAJ seeking a home or a
farm, this increased burden Will be put
upon the shoulders of those least able
to bear it. If the Times mean to
substitute a recording tax on monies
and credits, 1t is probably correct in its
conclusion that the state would derive
more benefit from that than 1t does
from the present law relating to mon
les and credits, but If it means simply
that. this shall be a supplemental tax
on monies and credits. then 1t Is only
advocating an additional measure for
making dear money in Iowa.
The proposition was to exempt mort

A w0MAN's WAY.

In Judge Powers court at Carroll last
presented. A wife suing for a legal
division from her husband submitted
that in the first place the twain We're
utterly unsuited to each other. an allie
cation common to this class of cases.
The second count in her Indictment of
the derelict benedict is original and
seems to bring int the courts a sort of
argument heretofore confined to the
|nuptial chamber and its lecture plat
form. She says hat previous to mar
rage the male party to the imbroglio
agreed to be governed" by her advice
pertaining to all business relations, and
in fac to hear to her strictly in every
sense of the word" Instead Of so doing
he has despised her aomonition and
practically repudiated since the honey
moon has waned the promises made in
the flush Of youthful emotion immedi-
ately preceding. Like the poet, she
weeps to think
How mony heightened sage advices
The husband frae the wife despises,'
and prays the court to divorce her from
the man who won't mind.
Perhaps Judge Powers was right in
law to refuse her petition, but equity
and law are often strangers. If the
man positively refuses to mind she
should have her divorce. The mere fact
is sufficient proof OF his incorrigibility.
He has been labored with doubtless
with diligence and a%ssiduity. He still
continues obdurate and refuses to let
the woman have her way. Married men
will wonder al his liardihood and Sc
cretly wish to learn how he managed to
hold out. 1t is a pity the trial might not
have gone on. 1t would have developed
much that many desire to know and
would serve as a warning to prospective
benedicts not to promise under the UNI
due influence of cotrtship more than
humanity ma possibly perform under
the strain and s~trenuosity of marriage.

and to substitute a slight registry TAX
applicable to all mortgages of records
and in force in the state. whether own
ed by residents or non residents, or py
banks or private individuals. This was
the proposition defeated in New YORK.
Governor Odell proposed to substitute
a registry tax of 4 mills applicable TO
all mortgages for the general property
tax of 40 mills. He showed that the
change would greatly increase the
public revenue. This was admitted,
but the banks, trust companies, Il
large financial interests generally
fought him on the ground that IL COM
PEELED to pay this a mill AK they Woulo
have to raise interest. rates. AS the
law stands now the banks and trust
companies pay no on their mort
cages because their assets in this line
are offset by their liabilities of one sort
and another. Their untaxed money
conpetes with that of the individual
who must pay a tax of 20 mills II the
assessor catches him. This is also the
law in Iowa. The private citizen VINO

of loaning money Is hunted down by

the principal cities OF the state. by
this law Iowa discriminates against
her own citizens and in favor OF the
