How Should Girls Salute the Flag ?

We don't suppose that many Amer
lean girls or women have given much
serious thought to the question of sa-
luting the flag of their country. or how
the salutation should be made. But
the club women of the east have been
studying the problem with as much Sc
robustness as General Nogi tackled the
problem of chasing the Russians out
of Port Arthur, and with as much as
siduity as some of the members of the
Arizona legislature showed in solving
the difficulties in the way OF giving
a clerkship to every applicant. The
question arose. it seems, because of an
inquiry addressed to President ROose-
Welt by little girl from New Jersey.
''WiH you tell me, Mr.. President"
she asked what is the proper way
in which a girl should salute the hag?"
and Mr.. Roosevelt replied: MY dear
little girl, if you were a boy and asked
me that question, I could answer it.
1 would then say that you should raise
your hat and then drop your arm to
your side. But just how girl should
do it I cannot say"
So the patriotic ladies of the eastern
seaboard proceeded to hunt for expert
authority. They sent many letters to
men prominent in politics and national
affairs, and especially to officers of the
army and navy. Responses were re-
ceived from most of the men to whom
application was made for instruction.
Gen. Nelson A Miles made this sug-
gestion:
81 do not think a military salute
placing the right hand across the
breast with the middle finger di-
rected toward the point of the left
shoulder. the head at the same time be-
ing slightly lowered"
Gen. H. C. Corbin wrote: ain our
garrisons, when officers and soldiers
salute the colors, it is the custom for
all ladies. young and old, to arise and
remain standing during the passing of
the colors. This, it seems to me, is the
most satisfactory solution OF the ques-
ton"
Admiral Dewey said: "The salute
which has been employed by men for
many years is given by raising the
right hand to the forehead and then
dropping the hand, and there seems
to be no reason why ladies and girls
should not use the same form of sa-
lutte"
Admiral Robley D. Evans wrote: ST
find that at many naval stations the
custom has grown in favor for the
ladies and young girls to stand at at
tention' and salute the colors the same
as the officers do. The only other sa-

Hugo KanZ, a German writer, in his
book, The Land of Riddles" says that
nearly all Russians, high and low, are
anxious to see Russia defeated in it's
war with Japan, in order that better
things may be brought about by the de-
feat. The author quotes a representa-
tive lawyer in st. Petersburg as fol-
lows: Everything depends upon how
this war ends. If God helps us and
we lose the war, Improvement is pos
sible; for then ruin and, above all the
chronic bankruptcy of the nation, can
no longer be concealed. If man
should enter my room now and if l
should say to him: What do you hope
and wish in regard to the warp his
answer would be: Defeat; the only
means to save us If we calculate
how many men are shot and exiled and
how many families are ruined every
year by absolutism, the total equals
the losses in war-a more terrible one,
however. for only a catastrophe can
make an end of this war, which has
long been destroying us. Therefore,
I say again, if God helps us we shall
lose the war in the east. Do not allow
yourself to be deceived by any official
Every good Russian
prays: God help US and permit us to
be beaten -

A Good Beginning.

The rains have been of such meal
culable benefit that nobody would OBJ
ject to muddy streets-if muddy streets
were a necessity. But they are not a
necessity. Disintegrated granite. Of
which the city now has a practically
unlimited supply, will convert the
worst street or road into a highway
equal to the best macadam. An ex-
celIent object lesson is this respect is
furnished by a section of Washington
street, on the north side of that tho
roughfare. between Center and First
streets. After the heavy rains which
fell in January. a coat of granite grav-
el-and a light coat, at that-was
spread over the section mentioned.
That part of the street is now in fair
condition. Notwithstanding the heavy
rains Of the last few days, and the
difference between that part of the
street and the remainder of Washing
ton street is so striking that no further
proof of the value of gravel is needed.
Several weeks ago The Republican
expressed a general demand of the
public for improved streets. and we
understand that the city council has
needed this demand to the extent of
arranging for a speedy surfacing of
Washington street in the business dis
trict. 1t is to be hoped that this new
policy will be pursued until the en-
tire business section of the city streets
has been macadamized. No outlay of
public money could be made to better
advantage

The Reno papers report a raise OF
81 per thousand on flooring, ceiling
and rustic lumber. This advance in
price went into effect Tuesday upon
advices sent to wholesale dealers by
the lumber magnates. This raise
will make this kind OF lumber cost,
laid down in Yerington about $5c
per thousand. Those who contem.
plate building in this valley will
probably figure on stone buildings
from now on as the price of lumber
is now almost prohibitive. Good
building rock is close at hand here
the finest kind of lime is burned and
other articles are comparatively
cheap, 80 that stone building can
be constructed about as cheaply as
wooden one with lumber at the
present prices.

At meeting of the Walker River
Water Association last week it was
decided to divide up the water in the
river 40 that all users might have
enough for stock purposes. There
is said to be considerable water in
the bitches in the upper end of the
valley vet, but none in the lower
end of the valley, where crops OF
vegetables are drying up and stock
is going thirsty. Messrs. Hannah
and Ambrose have been employed
by the Association to visit the heads
of all bitches daily and make an
equal division of the water during
the period of scarcity, and ditch
owners are requested not to inter
tere with their operations.
