Owing to the American system OF CO.

Bryan's Tribute to the Flag.

s'We stood uncovered while the flag
was raised. That~is the most beautiful
beautiful flag that kisses the breezes
today If you have ever chance to
compare that flag with other flags, you
will agree with me, that no flag that
floats is so pleasing to the eye Not
only does it CRAFTY the artistic sense,
not only is it beautiful in It's comoina
tions and arrangement of colors, but it
possesses a strength that adds to its
charms. The white indicates the puri
ty of the nations purpose, the red the
blood that has been shed in nations
defense, and that will be shed if the
principles for which the flag stands are
ever assailed the stars represent each
one state, and the last Fourth of July
an additional star was added to that sky
Of blue.
at represents an indissolnble union
of indstructiye states, and in that flag
there is represented that idea of gov
eminent which combines national
Sovereignty with the preservation OF
local self-government, the greatest idea
OF government that has been presented
since the original idea Of self govern
ment was enunciated
preserve the idea of the state taking
care of its domestic affairs, and the
union representing the states, acting
together, you can spread the idea indeh-
nitely; but without these two ideas
both preserved, great republic is inn
