1 it be made. Let us give it freely, but at the same time devoutly pray Him whor ules all nations and overrules all events that it may never be necessary to use it.
 The heroic valor and manly courage of the Revolutionary fathers made it possible for this Republic to exist and for the cause of freedom to be ex- tended. It cost them much blood and treasure, but the government is worth all it cost. With the protection and hope vouchsafed to American freemen by this Government, since twice bap- tized in blood, they cut pathway for humanity and liberty throughout the world; they planted their banner on every barrier that thwarted their progress; they covered the earth with their monuments of glory, and human ity and Christianity found in them valorous champions. Shall we, their descendants, permit the arrest of this march of progress by the stifing of the latest born republic?
 Every lover of liberty will answer, No! It may be necessary for this generation-yea, for us-to make some sacrifice to preserve and per petuate the sacred institutions so be- queathed to us. If so, we should stand os our fathers stood, the avengers of any wrong to every American citizen or sailor, the heralds of right and the liberators of the oppressed.
 join with my friends from Missis- sippi (Mr. Allen) in saying for the people of the South and particularly for the State from which 1 come, that there is hut one sentiment, and that is that if this impending war can be honorably averted. without injury to the cause of freedom, it ought to be; ! but if some reckless impetuous foreign foe shall invade our shores or assault our citizens, we will show them "Whose dripping blade and stalwart arm will hew a red circle in their line and fence our country's flag from harm"
 Mir. Speaker, the flag which floats over this Capitol and the flag that hangs so gracefully over your chair is the flag of the South as it is of the North. We have no other flags. We want no other flag. This is good enough for us, and has behind it power enough to protect every Ameri- can citizen. And, in this hour of threatened and impending war, every man who claims to be an American, and who would desire to eXalt Ameri- can manhood, should bury his parti- sanship and by an affirmative vote on this bill say that the honor of this Government and the liberty and rights of our citizens everywhere shall be protected by it without regard to cost.

GALE BASKETEERS MAKE
 X FINE SHOWING

The five husky lads representing the Gale high school who are in Little Rock this week trying for the state basketball championship, are placing the name of their school right along with the larger ones, and although they are not handing their opponents the "fadeaway," they are nevertheless making their presence known and known in a substantial way. The newspaper reporter of the tourney speaks very complimentary of this nervy and we'll trained five and gives them due credit for the following Gale 41, Texarkana (Tex.) 33; Gale "A, Pine Bluff 2S; Gale 13 Texarkana (Ark.) 26.

Scots Hobnob With Australians.


The peculiarly fraternal sentiment

amply demonstrated again when the

The minister Of the interior has il
spef en- embargo on all Danish ships
that are registered, Or for which there
has been issued temporary registration
or vessels that are large enough to be
registered that are being constructed
in tho kingdom. This embargo means
that Danish ships can In no way, shape
or form be sold to citizens or compa-
MES not Danish. No ships being con-
structed for foreign account or which
are completed for noncitizens Of Den
mark and which on this date have not
been put under the flag Of the foreign
nation can be sent out Of the kingdom
or put in commission under a foreign
flag without special license from the
department Of commerce. All owners
OF shipbuilding plants are compelled
to give the minister Of commerce full
details Of every new contract for the
construction Of vessels. The export Of
all kinds Of smoked, dried OF sailed
fish out Of the country is prohibited.
Only such exporting houses as have
been designated by the ministry Of ag-
riculture may export live or cleaned
fresh fish and only upon certain condi-
tons to be further prescribed. Expor-
tations Of fish may only be made
through certain ports. Fish that has
been prepared by other methods than
being sailed, dried or smoked can only
be exported in accordan to agree
ment and to the regulations existing
at the time Of expectation.
Fires are raging in nearly all the
large peat boys in the vicinity, says a
Veile newspaper. If the drought con-
tinues the fire will not only stop the
work Of preparing peat for fuel, but 1t
will destroy what has been prepared,
and even attack the soil Of cultivated
fields. Owing to the smoke in the air,
the sun looks red.
Not only ordinary wood is used for
fuel, but practically everything that
can be burned has a market value as
