hoisted, when the Stars and Stripes
will come floating down to the
strains of The Star Spangled Ran
ner'-that flag. old Glory, so rich
in happy and honorable achieve
ments, will be made doubly dear

WEST AFRICA LATEST
COUNTRY TO ASK FOR
RIGHT OF HOME RULE

London, Jan. 17.-West Africa
is the latest country to seek home
rule. A mission, representative of
educated opinion in British West
Africa, has arrived here to urge
upon the colonial office number
of reforms in the internal admin
iStration Of the four West African
colonies and protectorates, Sierra
Leone, the Gold Coast Nigeria ana
the Gambia, says the London
Times
The mission has been sent to
this country by the national con-
gress of British West Africa, and
seeks in the first place the creation
of a legislative council which will
be composed one-half of members
chosen by the crown and one-haif
of members elected by the people,
and for q house of assembly which
would have complete control of the
revenue and expenditure.
AS to local government, the mis-
sion urges that municipal corpora
tions should be established in each
Of the principal towns of the coll
onies.
The judicial system of British
West Africa, in particular Nigeria,
is criticised by the mission which
states that at present sit is the
practice to appoint to judicial Of
fees Europeans who have not re.
ceived any legal training and who
are not competent to exercise judi
cial functions"
Among other suggested reforms
they seek: The establishment Of
a West African university; the re-
moval of the color bar in the West
African medical service and the
introduction of immigration laws
to prevent the influx of undesir-
able aliens to British West Africa.

possible to cure. The commissars

bread for a long time and that in
others no Kind of fats or meats
were obtainable and that milk was

And ever, within them, was lib

And Commerce, established her

And argosies, in them, their cargoes
