Bryan. Watterson and Harmon.

Mr.. Bryan and MIR. Watterson are ex-
changing a few remarks ON the subject
Of party regularity and the next demo-
cratic presidential nomination. Two in
teresting men on all subjects. but espe-
ciaiiy interesting on that subject.
Mr.. watterson thinks Mr.. Bryan can
AFFORD 10 forget. or at least forgive. the
division of 1895. and lend his influence
toward nominating two years hence the
man best supported by the conditions of
that day. Why burrow in the past? Let
the dead past bury Its dead. There were
good men and true who bolted the ticket
fourteen years ago. Mr.. watterson names

Mr.. Bryan. In his reply. while diplo-
matte, suggests things indicating that
with him the past Is not dead. Thoughts
OF 1896. 1900. 1904 and 1908 are still with
him. Inspired by them. he asks Mr..
watterson to help develop for the next
race a man who has no bolt mark against
his record. Is II not possible to fnd
among the six and q half million men
for the next contest? A fair question,
and politely put.
1t may not be assumed that Mr.. Wat
terson in his observation or Mr.. Bryan
in his reply had Gov. Harmon in view.
And yet Gov. Harmon is the man to
whom the discussion most conspicuousiy
applies. Next to Mr.. Bryan himself, he
IS the democrat most canvassed in con-
nection with 1912. AS a member in 1895
OF Mr.. Cleveland's Official family, he
threw his influence against Mr.. Bryan,
though whether he went clear over to
the republicans, or stopped at the Palmer
and Buckner halfway house, is not
generally known. Mr.. Watterson would
accept Gov. Harmon as leader, while Mr..
Bryan, who does not say he would not,
would prefer another.
1t is indisputable that Judge Parker
could not have been nominated but for
his party regularity. Although living in
the enemy's country" and surrounded
on all sides. politically. omcially and
socially, by gold influences, he had sup
ported Mr.. Bryan in 1898: and his New
York boomers put that fact In the fore
ground in their appeals both for dele
gates to the national convention, and for
votes later.
In 1904, however, the democracy had
little IL any hope, and Mr.. Bryan's power
In the party was very great. Now the
hope is high, and Mr.. Bryan's authority
In much dispute. Will the difference in
the general situation show In Gov. Har-
mons behalf? Is the past dead enough
for burial, and will II be buried? II SO,
friends Of the family are respectfully
invited to attend.

Japan and Korea.

Arrangements are In the final stages, 1t
is announced, for the annexation OF
Korea by Japan, an event for which the
world has been thoroughly prepared for
several years. When Japan beat Russia
back from the sea 1t was clearly under
stood by all the powers that the fight was
for Korea as well as for domination over
Manchuria. The peninsula alongside the
Japanese islands was OF more vital I'm
portance to tho government at Toxic
than even the mainland beyond. II
Korea could have remained neutral.
under a strong autonomous government.
Japan might have been safe In permit
ting It to continue an Independent state.
But Korea has never possessed the ele-
ments OF national strength. 1t has never.
indeed. had the least characteristic Of
genuine national organization. 1t has
been always more or less under the infau-
ence Of China. without educational faciii-
ties. without ambitions. without the
slightest concept OF civil morality. Cor
ruption has always reigned at Seoul. Be-
tween the densely ignorant people and
the higher classes there was an un-
bridgeable gulf. Poverty stalked In the
land. Disease swept 1t periodically. 1t
was the most benighted Of all the far
eastern countries.
The formal passing OF this shadovy
governmental organization will occasion
no regret. Japan has proved itself COM
petent to manage Korean AFFAIRS far
more ably than the Koreans themselves.
Signs Of Improvement are already apparent
to the tourist. Administration has replaced
palace intrigue and graft. The people
are being led into better ways OF living
and schools are being provided for them.
Japanese. dominion II. indeed. the best
thing that could have come to them, far
preferable to Russian rule and. Is the

than the continuation OF the ill-defhed
Chinese suzerainty. There Is a SUFFICIENT
racial likeness between the japanese and
the Koreans to lead to q good under
standing between them In a few decades
OF peaceful government the barriers be-
tween the two peoples will have been
greatly weakened, II they are not thrown
down altogether. That there will be So
called patriotic Efforts to free Korea from
japanese control is to be expected. The
same spirit that prompted the assassina-
ton of Prince Ito a few months ago by
a Korean fanatic is likely to continue.
with perhaps tragic results from time
to time. But such incidents. however de-
piorable and costly In terms Of valuable
life. will not affect the set japanese pur-
pose to give Korea the benefit of orderly
government, whether the object Of Japan
Is to aid the Koreans or to safeguard
itself.

Displaying the National Ensign at Hall
Mast.
There have been many mistakes
made about the etiquette Of the flag
When President William Mckinley
was assassinated thousands Of loyal
Americans raised flags at half mast
over their places Of business and let
them fly by night and by day until
they wore out They undoubtedly
thought they were showing respect to
McKinley's memory. But they were
not showing proper respect to the flag
The United States government display
ed at that time its flags ut half mast
from sunrise to sunset from the presi
dents death until his burial. The gov
eminent regulations provide that on
the death of a president in office its
flag shall be displayed Mt half mast
only one day.
In memory of the 100000 Union sol
diers who lost their lives during the
civil war May 30, Memorial day. each
year the United States displays its flag
at half mast at all army posts. stations
and national cemeteries from sunrise
to midday. Immediately before noon
a dirge is played by the band or field
music, and the national salute of TWEEN
ty-one guns is fired. AT the conclu-
sion of this memorial tribute at noon
the flag is hoisted to the top of the
staff and remains there until sunset.
The idea is that the national ensign Is
too sacred an object to be long In
mourning for any man or number OF
men, no matter how exalted their rank.
The flag reversed. with the union
down, indicates distress. The flag on
anything but fort actually besieGed
should never be displayed between
sunset and sunrise.

ton from the top of the staff 1t Is

lowered. Washington Post.
