ten feet Of its butt is embedded in a
2OO-ton block Of solid concrete, which.
without other stays. holds the pole up
right against the wind.

Looking up at the great flagstaff il,
is hard to realize that It weighs up
ward of i6 tons. and that there is lum-
Der enough in It to build five ordinary
sight-room houses. Its great height
gives il an appearance of slenderness
and lghtness.
just to transport this pole and set it
up, Russell Hawkins and citizens Of
Astoria spent nearly enough thousands
of dollars to build several of the houses

GERMANY'S BREAD DEFICIT.

has been as popular vianed as the
chicken or the calf. This year, how
ever, there is also bread shortage.
The protective policy which regulates
Germany's importing business has not
redounded to the comfort of what Bebel
proudly styled 1T h e proletariat

Ireland with all its fearful and
melancholy incidents finds at present
some parallel in the wheat famine of
Germany's overpopulated kingdoms
and provinces. The empire of Kaiser
William can not feed its people ex-
cepting by means of costly importations
from the far Eastern and Western
worlds. Even the finest harvests of
Westphalia and Bavaria fail to fill the
mouths of the teeming millions that
hold the land saved for them by the
valor of Arminius. We learn from The
Continental Correspondence (Berlin)
this condition of things is keeping the
country poor. According to Goldsmith.

American flag and with the American
colors painted on her sides. AS she
opened fire on the submarine, the
American flag was hauled down and
the British flag was hoisted. The
submarine was sunk, but a number
Of members of her crew jumped clear
and began to swim. The atfidavits
say that several of the Germans were
murdered by members Of the crew OF
the Baralong, acting under the orders
of her captain, after tney had reach
ed the Nicosian and had climbed TO
her decks by the ladders. Some OF
these men were killed with their
hands up and the captain of the sub
marine was shot deliberately with, a
rifle while he was swimming with
one hand and holding the other up in
token of surrender.
This butchery is disgraceful and al
most inconceivable. The assassina-
ton of the Lusitania was bad enough,
but this, in some respects, is worse
because more deliberate and COLI
blooded. So far as we can recall, it
is the first instance in all the history
of the sea of sailors numbering other
sailors swimming for their lives anG
ready to surrender.
All we can do, probably, is to send
in a protest against the use of our
flag by British war vessels in sucn
circumstances and to express very
strongly, in the name of humanity and
Of civilization, condemnation of such
crime as this British crew is accused
Of committing. That would be proper,
