No Longer Sectional Lines

1t is a pleasure to know that the
Northern people, with q very few
exceptions, indorse the action Of
Congress IS to returning battle
flags to the States, and that this
gracious act is appreciated by The
PEOPLE of the South. The official
head of the Confederate Veterans
Association, General Stephen D.
Lee, in an official announcement,
says:
II would be delellct in my duty
not 10 give expression to the salts
faction that fills the heart Of every
Confederate Veteran for the -upani.
nifty with which the National Legis.
lature passed the bill restoring. the
Confederate battle flags to the seve-
raj States and to The readiness with
which the measure was approved by
the President. This action is fresh
evidence that there are now in our
grano country no sectional lines -
no south, no North, East or West
but we are all Americans, devoted
to our common country And l urge
upon all parties, North or south,
who have colors in their possession
to return them at once to the State
capitols.' .-;3 '~e''s3i -
This announcement Of Gen. Zee
has been received with great cordi-
atty everywhere: The old battle
flags are very dear to those who
fought under them, but now they
are simply mementoes Of past hero
ism. There is no desire to fight
under them again.

says: "l'he Department of Agri.
culture has just published a final

of Entomology for several years
has indicated that 'there is not the
remotest probability that the boil
weevil will ever be exterminated.
As a matter of fact, he says no in
furious insect has ever been exler-
minated. Some species, like the
Rocky Mountain locusts, have died
out, more or less on account Of
climatic influences, and reasonably
effective methods of combating
others have been perfected. al
though the very large yields of
cotton of former times may no
longer be possible IN the region
now affected by the. weevll,'
