The Spirit of '76

This is copied from the original
painting in the town hall at
Marblehead, Mass. II Is SYM
bolic of the intense spirit of de-
termination and dauntless cour-
age which prevailed during the
, American Revolution, and by
which the United States won
her independence. The wound
ed soldier blowing his fife, with
a calm expression Of optimism
and fearless heroism bound to
win the liberty he was willing
to die for, is but q mate to tho
drummer boy in his teens and
the aged drummer, the trio
stepping bravely over the
wounded and mangled forms Of
their compatriots.

Gibson's Proposition

Charles Dana Gibson was amused at receiving not long ago printed circular, signed by an automobile firm, that read:
 You are cordially invited to participate in our grand $Ioo prize drawing contest. Each partici- pant may submit one or more drawings advertising our automo- bile, and the winner will receive a grand cash prize of SIoo. Drawings must be sent prepaid, they must be original, and all un- successful drawings will remain the property of the undersigned" :"
 MT. Gibson, who can scarcely be persuaded to make drawings at SIoo apiece, smiled over the printed circular, then took sheet of note paper and, still smiling wrote to the automobile firm:
 You are cordially invited to participate in my grand $Io prize automobile contest. Each par ticipant may submit one or more automobiles, fully equipped, of his own manufacture, and the winner will receive a grand cash prize of SIo in gold. The auto mobile submitted should be brand new, and must be shipped f. o. b. New York. The unsuccessful automobiles will remain the prop. erty of the undersigned.

Stopped Prescott Tong War

What promised to develop into a local tong war at Prescott was nipped in the bud when Tom Yee swore out a complaint before County Attorney P. w. O'Sulli- van charging Ching Chung with attempted extortion of money and threats to iniure. The latest re- cruiting of the county officials into the inner dealings of Chinatown is simply a sequel to the recent trial of Young Chung, who was sent to the penitentiary for life because of an alleged murderous assalt and attempt to rob fellow Chinaman.
 The case was desperately fought in all the courts, the supreme court recently affirming the decision of the lower courts. Today Young Chung is in the state penitentiary.

Resolutions Deplores Alleged

OPPOSE CHANGES IN FLAG

That the American people are not as
patriotic as those of three generations
ago is the assertion made by John
Buford post, G. A. R.. in resolutions
adopted Saturday night vigorously pro-
testing against any change in the flag.
Growth OF socialism and lack of rev.
erence for the country and its institu-
tons are declared to have made the
Inauguration of such a movement pos
sible. The resolutions follow:
Whereas, We veterans OF the civil
war, with the experience of long life
behind us. realize, and that with sor-
row and regret. that the American peo-
pie as a whole are not as patriotic, and
have not the same respect, love and
generation for the old flag they had
when We We're hos, three generations
ago. Then our population was not so
cosmopolitan in character as it is to-
day. We were not then a nation OF
classes, with the extremely rich on one
hand and the unfortunately poor on
the other. We all or nearly all, stood
upon the same common level Our
language was nearly uniform, while
today we have. a conglomeration of
races, with a babel OF tongues. and a
large socialistic element who are not
patriotic, who care nothing about our
flag, our country. or our institutions;
and in defiance of our customs and our
laws are continually Haunting the red

Protest and Condemn.
Therefore, be 1t resolved, That we

" protest and condemn any move
ment that would desecrate or change
our flag in any manner whatever.
Change our flag? No. Never! The
flag of our fathers. the flag under
which we fought and our comrades
died. A flag which today floats in
triumph over land and sea, honored
and respected at home and abroad. A
flag which was unfurled to the breeze
nearly a hundred years ago, not only
over this great continent, but also over
thousands of isles of the seas. The
flag of the greatest nation on earth
with more than a hundred million
freemen, which is now and always has
been the beacon light of liberty, to
guide the enslaved and down trodden
of every land to a higher, nobler and
grander civilization; guaranteeing to
all under it's folds, regardless of said
religion, sect, creed, or color universal
liberty, freedom OF thought, and the
rights of man to labor and gather the
fruits of his toll. Change a flag with
such a record and such a history.
