FLOWERS USED AS EMBLEMS
Have Been Distinguishing Mark OF
Factions az Long AZ There
10 Record.

The determination OF the loyal"
Ulster men to induce every man. won.
an and child to wear a flower as a
token OF their aversion to home rule
reminds one how often flowers have
been used as emblems.
Since the leaders OF the Yorkist
and Lancastrian parties each plucked
a rose in the Temple gardens, the Ian.
castrlan n red and the Yorkist a white.
this flower has been a popular emblem.
Apart from the fact that red roses
are symbollcal OF love and white OF
purity, the English national emblem
Ia the rose; tho Legitimjst party OF
France formed the League OF the Rose
in imitation OF England's Primrose
league. while owing to G~ladstone's
fondness for white roses many liberals
once wished TO make them an emblem
for their party. but the idea was not
adopted.
