X communication that came in or the heels of the editorial about oug people failing to stand in response to the playing of the national anthem. the Star spangled Banner has brought forth call down from an "Observant Yankee" miss, who. since we come 10 think about it, knows d great deal about what she is talking about
 '0hservant Yankee says that she is a constant attendant on the theatres, and has heard the Star spangleI Banner played but once, and then the people arose
 The analysis of the communication simply is that people have been ex- pected to stand when the orchestra played My Country Tis Of Thee" and there has been reluctance among those used to arising 10 their feet ex- cept to the one national anthem, The Star Spangled Banner
 Let us all learn what our national hymn Is, including the would-be ob- serving Unes. and tine others, aud feel safe in saying there will he nC disrespect shown our grand and glor ious flag. Most of us will not and the rest dare not" says our critic.
 Now, My Country Iris of Thee is beloved, as we believe Dixie and other patriotic tunes, but after all there is a national hymn, there can be but one national hymn, and that hymn is The Star spangled Banner and the par ticular respect paid this hymn b. arising to our feet when it is played, would be lessened by arising to any other tune whatever

CREEL GETS ON PAYROLL
THEN CHANGES OPINION

George Creel. the administration
chief press agent. whose labors in
propaganda are regarded as "indis-
per>ahle" wrote for the Rocky Noun
tain News or January 18th, 1912, an
editorial containing the following:
Instead of standing before the
world a 4 triumphant democracy,
iu which one man is not favored be-
lore his brother, America i now re-
carded a a nation of commercial
sharks willing to devour one an
other II other game i not AT hand"
George now explains that this is
true only under a Republican ad-
ministration. Whenever Georges
name is on the federal payroll. the
sharks become the tamest kind OF
liz ful and ornamental fish. The sure
cure Tor a political revolutionary is

the file of the case in the District
Court on which Mr.. Seligman secured
Judgment. The, coupons are missing
from the file Of the Coler case. The
writer believes Mr.. Coler, or the per.

pom.
Undoubtedly the district attorney

a large number of similar items. The
