TWTNIrd THE BATTLE FLAGS

The martial airs of Yankeedom
and Dixie intermingled! The
Bonnie Blue Flag and the Star
Enaneled Banner blending in one
harmonious musical strain! The
folds of thevictoroius Stars and
Stripes lovingly intertwined with
those OF the defeated Stars and
Bars! Why not' Are we not
North and South, brethren who
must always live together 10 the
same household, in territory and
as in government, one9
why should two brothers per.

out so years ago, and over issues
now dead as Hector Why, in
these times Of peace, elevate into
eternal worship a hatred born
amid the heats of passion and
war-defiying q momentary mood
Of anger into a sacred principle J
The thing is all the more absurd
since the results are accepted by
both, and the very men who SO
joyously saluted the flag OF the
Confederacy, are now just as
warmly, as Loyalty greeting the
Stars and Stripes of their fore
fathers;-aye, since Appomattox,
these very men have bravely
stood side by side with their
former antagonists - comrades
fighting against a common foe
under those same fond old folds
Of glory.
The North can afford to be
magnanimous, being victor; and
then, Americans are not going to
make of their dead past q cause
Of dissension for their living
present, like the unhappy Irish
race keeping SO bitterly alive the
battle memories Of its Boyne
Water of 220 years ago. Be.
sides, New England cannot well
afford to be overmuch righteous
in her judgment of the South for
seeking to preserve slavery,
since she had discovered some
time before that for climatic rea-
sons it did not pay to foster
slavery there.
So, for all reasons, since we
have to-day, thank God! one flag,
the Star Spangled Banner of
consecrated history, and are once
more one people, why then, what
harms it to bury every bitter
memory of the unfortunate past,
even to twining in one loving
clasp the battle standards under
which and for which Yankee and
Reb as honestly as valorously
fought each other? In the noble
words Of the chivalrous Grant,
who at Appomattox refused the
sword of the gallant Lee and
gave back to every Southern SOL

Farmers Dining Club
columbus Dispatch)

The central fact if the drift
from the country to the cities is
to be stopped, there must be
provided in the country some of
the things that country folk go
to the city for. The farmers of
Wayndotte county, Kansas,
seem to have understood this
when they recently established
a farmers dining Cuba place
where they may meet once a
month and discuss, after a good
dinner, the questions in which
they are in common interested.
The discussion is a good thing.
The getting together for that
purpose after the manner so
common in the city, is good.
The social life of the com munity
will be improved and there will
be more rapid material progress
for the communion. It will not
be strange if farms are better
titled, if farm help is better dis
tributed, if markets yield better
prices, if roads are more regu-
larly and adequately repaired
and if county affairs are more
efficiently managed, as a direct
result of this fuller and more for
NAL intercourse.
The farmers dining club is a
good thing. There ought to be
one in every community. That
is the way to secure the united
action that means success and
progress.

Her sympathetic nature and in

work of ministering to those in

ly more so if there was more

WENDLING WILL BE HANGED
Under Old Law If Condemned

Will Vending hang or go to
the electric chair, in the event
that he is convicted?
This question is being asked
on all sides and much interest is
being manifested in the manner
of execution in the event of a
conviction, because of the pas
sage of a law by the last Legis-
lature making electrocution the
legal form of execution in Ken
lucky.
vending will hang if the
death sentence is melted out to
him.
The Constitution of Kentucky
provides that a law becomes
automatically effective ninety
days after the adjournment of
the Legislature unless there is
an emergency clause necessita-
tates the pass age of the bill and
the attachment of the clause by
a constitutional majority.
The bill establishing the cleo
trio chair as the legal form of
execution did not bear the emer-
gency clause, and therefore be-
came automatically effective
ninety days after the adjourn
ment of the Legislature.
The Legislature adjuoruned
march Is, 1910, and the law be-
came effective June Is 1910.
A provision of the act reads:
This act shall not apply t.
crimes committed before this
act takes effect; the punishment
of such crimes shall be such as
was prescribed by the law in eff
feet when the crime was COM
mitted."
The murder of Alma Kelrer is
supposed to have been commit
ed some time after December 8,
1909, or before the law making
electrocution the legal. so that
the perpetrator would be exc
cuted according to the form that
was the law before the passage
of the bill.

by the bill, which was approved
by Gov. Wilson March q, 1910,

YESTERDAY"

The past is gone forever
Its memories though we cannot
sever,
Things that hurt so much today,
Are the unkind words of yester-
day
Remorse to us will surely come,
If dishonest things, we've done.
Clouds will gather yer our way
From unfair trades of yesterday.
Who in our honesty did believe.
We see today it did not pay
Those crooked deals Of yesterday
If some officials of our state,
For private interests did legis-
late,
The gold they took to us betray,
Looses it's luster of yesterday.
There is satisfaction in doing
right,
Sunshine by day and peace at
night,
It makes life happy all the way
If we obeyed our conscience yes
terday.
