to return Confederate flags, was one OF
them. 1t showed how much the North
has improved in temper since 1887.
The South is improving, too. Stupid
arrogance on one side and plind
haughtiness on the other, have given
way to human decency and some
comprehension that the shield has two
sides. Congress voted unanimously to
restore the Confederate battle flags.
Why al ould any man of heart object
to the memories that are so deeply
burned into men and women OF the
South? If their cause was mistaken, it
was not less nobly upheld, and the
deaths and privations which we're
endured for it's sake we're not Less
real. When Mr. Cleveland wished to
return these flags, Governor foraker
of Ohio opposed the measure, not, as
he elegantly explained, that l have
any affection for the dirty rags, but
cecause they are emblems of treason,
and are wanted for no other purpose
than public parade, and to fire the
Sothern heart with pcide for 9 lost
cause, the crime of the age Foraker
introduced the bill providing that the
Government mark, the graves OF Con-
federate soldiers buried in the North.
He has improved along with the rest
of us. The flag incident continues to
give satisfaction everywhere, and 1t
refreshes us to dwell part Of the time
on such indications of spiritually
better state.

Poor House Committee Closes a
Deal for the New Site.
New Poor House 60 he Two or Three
Miles Out the NJ, G. e. 81. T..
Railroad.
THE OLD PROPERTY TO BE SOLD

The McCracken county poor farm
is to be moved from its present loca-
ton on the Mayfield road, where IL
has been since the county first estab-
lished poor farm, to a point on the
~, G. & st. l.. railroad, about a mile
beyond Tyler, our southern suburb.
The present poor farm contains
about As acres and is in a locality
that is rapidly growing up, and in
which the value of property has con-
siderably increased during the past
few years.
Fiscal court has for several years
contemplated selling the place and
locating the county institution farth-
er from the cisv, and at last its plans
are to be realized.
Judge l.. ID. Husbands yesterday
drew up a deed to the county of
22 acres of land on the N, c. & St.
L., mile beyond Tyler and well To-
Gated for a poor farm, the cost to
be about $1,000. AS soon as the
property is surveyed the deed will be
signed and the property will belong
to the county.
The removal of the poor farm,
however, is something rather injefi-
mite, as no arrangements have been
made to do 1t yet.
Fiscal court has poor house COM
mittee authorized to buy or sell prop
erty, and after the sale of the prop
erty by Judge Husbands to the conn
ty is reported to the court, the COM
mittee will doubtless be instructed
to proceed to have building erected
on 1t.
The poor farm now in use is worth
about $4,000, and the county has
been unable to sell II because IL could
not get what it thought was right.
Ii now has several offers pending,
however, and fiscal court may take
some decisive action when it meets
in special session June 9th, to receive
a report from Sheriff Lee Potter.
A strip off the farm was authoriz-
ed sold recently, and little or no
trouble is anticipated in disposing of
the entire Az acres after the new poor
farm Is ready for use. The old farm
has been used for many years, and is
southwest of the city on the Mayfield
road-in fact right in the city since
the city limits were extended few
.ears ago.
The strip to be sold off tn, old
poor farm for street will bring
$500, which Is considered good
price. y

tablished the pauper burir, ground
Will thereafter be on portion OF
the poor farm, only a small part OF
