FLAGS COST MONEY

It probably costs the United States
$4,000 or $4,000 a year to have hags
for the president. Many of them are
silk and hand embroidered. Even the
ordinary bunting flag costs money.
True. 1t is not often that either nag
must be shown, but it must be on
hand at all times, else somebody Is
apt to receive a reprimand for not
showing the r-in-chief proper
respect. President Roosevelt was Sc
we're stickler for all that was due MIN
as president. ..ooo
1t costs the government $3OO0 OF
$4,000 a year to tell the soldiers at the
various posts that 1t is sunset. About
the only use that fact is to soldier
is. that If he is on sentry, he need
not salute an officer who happens to
come around, no matter how exalted
his rank. It costs the sum mentioned
to pay for the powder used In hring
the sunset gun. OF course the firing
of that gun also tells the men charged
with the duty of lowering the garrl-
son colors when TO do so, but the
chances are that they could learn that
sunset had come just about as easily
as the men who fire the cannon

MARRIED WOMEE'S NAMES

The old debate, which has been often
decided, only to break out afresh, as to
whether q womn after her marriage
should be known by her husbands full
name or should retain her own Chris
tian name Joined with his surname, Is
said to be agitating clubwomen In New
York and Chicago.
The president of the Lake View Wo-
mems club, Mrs Edith S. Morrill,, who
might IL she chose be known as Mrs.
Donald L. Merrill is quoted as saying.
mo clubwoman in Chicago puts down
her husbands name as her signature.
l don't see anything to discuss about
it, Yet there is something to dis
cuss about 1t, though the New York
Legislative League of Women has
taken action on the subject in har-
mony with the opinion expressed by
Mrs. Morrill,.
Indicating opposing cons derations.
the following expressions by we'll
known Chicago women may be read
with interest:
Mrs. Fannie Bloomfield Zeisler-When
woman's parents have made sacri-
fees for her education and she per-
haps has done something in the world,
I don't see why she should sink her
Identity by taking a mans full name
simply because she gets married.
Mrs. Raymond Robins-As long as
1t is the custom of the country to list
only the husbands nam 8 in city and
telephone directories and like places, I
think 1t wiser and more convenient to
use my husbands full name.
Both of these conflicting practices, It
will be noticed, are backed with rea-
son. There is reason also why a wo-
man signing legal document such as
a deed should set down her own Chris
tian name-it fixes her identity in a
matter in which the fixing of identity
is sometimes important. But in most
of the social relations of life there is
convenience in the adoption by Mrs.
Smith for instance OF name which
will show at a glance whether she is
the wife of John Smith or of Planta-
genet Smith. Therefore II is that GUS
tom decides her calling cards shall
designate the wife of Plantagenet
Smith as Mrs. Plantagenet Smith. The
rule usually followed is for women in
correspondence with friends and in bus
mess documents to sign their own
Christian names, but when giving
their addresses to use the Christian
names of their husbands. A widow
usually is known by her Christian
name conjoined with the surname of
her late husband. unless he enjoyed
unusual distinction, in which case she
generally chooses to keep his name.

Owens River
Water dndLand
Citrus Fruits
and
Easy Money

This Is the combination that is now
developing in the great San Fernando
valley, and the one that will come to
successful fruition when the great
Owens river aqueduct Is completed and
the two large reservoirs dot the land
scape within sight of the town. That
this is no idle boast Is clearly proven
by the fact that many of the leading
and successful orange and lemon
growers active In the California Fruit
Exchange own large improved citrus
acreage In this valley. Among the
many we quote but few, as follows:
j. A. Reed, Secretary Seml-TrOpic Fruit Ex-
change.
r.. H. wilkinson. Sales Manager California
Fruit Exchange.
Dana C. King, Auction Sales Manager, Cali
fornia Fruit Exchange.
Il. ii. Powell, Lemon Sales Manager Call

ID. E. Myers. Assistant Sales Manager Cali
fornla Fruit Exchange
II. l. Knox, Assistant Sa1es Manager San
Antonio Fruit Exchange.
III. II. Bartlett. Director In Upland Fruit Ex-
change, Upland. Cal.
Jessie NJ. Gray, 6ookkeeper Lenmgweh
Rancho. Whittier, Cal.
G. G. Reynolds member San Fernando Fruit
Growers Exchange.
These growers and many more
bought their original holdings on my
judgment, based on twenty years ex-
perience in this section, an experience
that is at your service If you are look
ing for citrus fruit land and improved
orange and lemon orchards.
Remember that with the advent of
Owens river water In the San Fer
nando valley there will be heavy ad-
vance In land values. making of that
region a second Riverside. which not
only insures safety to the man who
buys now. but handsome return on
his investment within the immediate
future. Correspondence invited.

OWNERSHIP OF POLE.
The Alaskan Treaty Gives 1t
To the United
States.
Treaty With Russia Effectively Dis
poses of Controversy Over the
Ownership of the NGrth
Pole Territory.

Washington, D. c., Sept Sin
searching through the flies of the
State Department today a representa-
tive of the American News Service
discovered a copy of the treaty CT
fecting the cession of tn II. .ssian pos
sessions in North Amer: l, proclaimed
by the United States. June 20, 1867.
The document effectually disposes as
to the right IF the Un'te;. States tc
any and all north pole territory that
may have been discovered by Dr.
Cook and Commander Peary. That
rart of the treaty govern IL the boun
dary of ALASKA and othac islands IS
that same which exts..G between
Great Britain and Russia before the
ownership and jurisdiction of the ter
ritory was transferred to the United
States. The first article Of the treaty
cites that 'sthe eastern limit is the
line of demarcation between Russia
and the British possessions in North
Amerca, as established by the conven-
ton between Russia and Great Brit
tain of February 2S-16, 1926"
The treaty then describes the
boundary line as commencing from
the southernmost point of the island
called Prince of Wales Island which
point lies in the parallel of 81 de-
grees, 40 minutes north latitude, and
between the 131st and the 133rd of
west longitude (Meridian of Green
wich). The said line shall ascend to
the north along the channel called
Portland Channel, as far as the point
OF the continent where it strikes the
56th degree of north latitude From
the last mentioned point, the line of
demarcation shall follow the summit
Of the mountains situated parallel to
the coast as far as the point of inter-
section of the 141st degree of west
longitude (of the same meridian); and
finally from the said point of inter-
section, the same meridian line of
141st degree, in its prolongation as
far as the frozen ocean"
When the attention of the officials
of the State Department was called to
the treaty, they said there could be
no question as to the treaty right of
the United States and the Jurisdiction
of the north pole territory as the
treaty includes all territory to the
north pole. They say it is evident
that Sir Gilbert Parker overlooked
the Alaskan treaty, otherwise he
would not have raised the question of
ownership.

ADMIRAL SEYMOUR COMING.
Distinguished Briton to Take Part in
Hudson-FuIton Celebration.

New York, Sept. 8-New York is
awaiting with considerable interest
the coming of Admiral Sir. Edward
Hobart Seymour, the distinguished
naval officer whom King Edward is
sending over in command of the Brit
ish squadron that is to take part in
the Hudson-Fulton celebration the
last of the month Admiral Seymour
is one of the most distinguished off
GERS in the British navy. He served
through the Crimean war, the China
wars of 1851 to 1862, the Egyptian
war of 1882 and the Boxer rebellion of
1900
Admiral Seymour enjoys the dis
tinction, unique for a foreigner, of
having commanded under fire a force
of United States sailors and marines.
1t was at the time of the siege of the
foreign legations at Pekin by the
Boxer rebels. eBfore the arrival of
the foreign troops, which eventually
captured Pekin a gallant but unsuc-
cessful attempt was made from Tien-
Tsin to relieve the legations by
means of a force composed of the sail
ors and marines of the various men
of-war within reach. Of this force,
which greatly distinguished itself by
its bravery, Sir Edward Seymour, by
common consent, received supreme
command not only as the ranking ad-
miral, but also as the most popular
officer. Indeed, Sir Edward acted
throughout with such perfect tact and
courage as to win the goodwill of
every officer and man under his COM
mand, no matter what his nationality

NEW LAW FIRM.
1t Is f. A. Daniels and Son, F. B,
Daniels.

Some days ago The Argus made
note Of the successful passing the Su-
preme Court of Mr.. Frank Borden
Daniels, son of our longtime friend
and esteemed townsman and noted
lawyer, Mr.. Frank A. Daniels and we
ventured then that the new law firm
would be Daniels & Daniels or F. A
Daniels e Son. The announcement is
made that it is F. A. Daniels & Son.
The junior member of the firm, a
university graduate and young man
of sterling character and intellectual
ability, has already had training in
his fathers Office before securing his
professional license, and he therefore
comes to the bar and to the practice
already well equipped for Office work
and schooled in procedure, and being
a close student, it is safe to predict
that he will hold his own in the pro-
fession.
The Argus is peculiarly sincere in
rendering to the new firm of F. A.
Daniels & Son it's abiding good
wishes.
