Eatertd at Poitoffict u MCoitd-claM Mil matter. Gen. Chaffee has written a lettersaying that be believed in a. short time the Filipino would "become tired of the straggle, and they certainly would be fore the American army would." We don't doubt it. There are entirely too many "fat" salaries for the American army to become tired. mm Li Dung Chang in the flesh was a great man. Li in the tomb Is a traitor. The relation! which he maintained with Russia are being denounced in China. When a man dies it is the habit of western people to discover all his good points, bat they do things differently in China. There the good is buried with his bones and the evil lives after him. A few days ago it came to light that the vice president of a bank, because of losses by dealing In stocks, and by getting the cashier of the bank to give certified checks, bad stolen a million dollars of the bank funds. We believe that, with few exceptions, bank wrecks are caused directly or indirectly by dealing in stocks and futures. Would It not be a good law to make it a crime for anyone having access to a bank's funds to deal at all In futures, directly or through others? As It Appeared Loig Before Betsy Rom Hade Oae. Few persons have noticed the Inter esting evolution on our flag of the stripes and stars as depicted In the ar mory of the Ancients at the top of old Fanenil hall. Most persons are famil iar with the story of Mrs. Ross and the making of the first flag of the free But evidently it was not Mrs. Uoss ,who originated the idea of the stripes. Down In the armory of the Anclenti you will sea first the broad red flag with the old English cross In Its field. Next a very similar flag, except that the broad red becomes blue, with no red but in the cross itself on the white field. Next the white flag, with its pine tree and "Appeal to Heaven," whence came our own state banner. Then it would appear that the fathers went back again, for the next flag has the red and white longitudinal stripes, but in the field there are the crosses of St George and St Andrew worked out In red upon a white ground. The next flag restores the blue to the field. It, too. has "the longitudinal red and white stripes and the combined crosses of St. George and St. Andrew, as in .the British Jack, worked out In red and white upon a blue field. It was not till after that upon the assertion of Independence by the colonies, that Mrs. Ross's flag appeared, and appar ently she only substituted for the dou ble crosses the circle of thirteen stars upon the blue field. The red, white and blue and the red and white stripes were all In the flag generations before Mrs. Ross was born, as the collection of the Ancients demonstrates. Boston Journal.

B. Flcklen, secretary of the to bacco board of trade of Greenville, N. C, resolutions passed by that board te questing congress to repeal the special war tax on tobacco. Speaking of Green ville Mr. Small said: "Greenville is now one of the largest tobacco market In the State, it being the largest in the east except Wilson. The men engaged in that business in Greenville are Intelligent and progres sive. The production of tobacco has ery largely increased in the territory tributary to Greenville, and they raise probably the finest grade of tobacco In the State." Washington City corres pondence of Raleigh Post. The Fbki Press feels kindly toward our sister town, Greenville, and are will ing for her to take all credit due, which la enough to be proud of, but we feel con strained to correct the statement that Greenville is the largest tobacco market In the east except Wilson. Both jthese and other towns in the east have older tobacco markets than Kinston, but the local market is only surpassed in size by wuson. me junston market is grow ing faster than any In the State, and we oon look for the realisation of our oft repeated prediction, mad at the begin nlng of the market here, that Kinston will be the largest tobacco market in the ast.
