% easy to say II don't want It, and l
won't have it, in a way that the pub
lie will understand, as it is to say, or
be quoted as saying ''while I really
would prefer to be left alone to pursue
my modest and retiring inclin ations.
my friends have so harrassed me, so
importuned me, that I have had to
in q measure-yield to their solicita-
lions, and reluctantly permit the use
of my name as a candidate" While
this is 90 much the order of the day
that few oh aracterize it by its right
name, it is nevertheless nothing short
of hypocrisy.
From now on, until the nominating
conventions have done their work. the
newspapers will carry considerable Of
this kind of dope, and worst of all the
editorial column will every now and
then be seduced into bolstering up the
deceit by pretending that If the citi-
zenry do not wake up and force the
nomination Of So.snd.So, the county
or state will lose the opportunity OF
cinching a public servant Of super.
human ability.
Welcome. thrice welcome. the man

about furthering his candidacy. His
methods are as much to be commended
as are those of the other fellow to be
condemned, because in these days, the

Ing pursued against your will and are
in danger of having an Office that you
do not want forced on you.

The Origin Of American Flag.

Did you know that the design for
Old Glory, our American flag, was
suggested by a barber's pole in Phil
Washington, on his visits
to the Quaker city. patronized 9
loquacious and not unlearned
Dutch barber whose shop was in q
basement in Arch street. The construc.
ton of q national standard in 177
was under his personal direction, and
he spent many sleepless nights think.

ment. Lying in his barber's chair
one day for a shave, Washington ex-
pressed admiration for the red.
white and blue, and the
harmoniousness OF the pole at
the door. "Nothing could be hap.

bin alton of beautiful ~colors; the red
symbolizing divine love, the white
truth and hope, the blue loyalty"
Washington turned the other side
of his face, remarking: Eyes, Schim'
melpenninck, and those colors have
other meanings, the red being en-
blematic of war, the white of peace
and the blue Of Justice" The little
chat with Schimmelpenninik led the
immortal George to incline the con-
