THE ASTORIAN PUBLISHING CO.,
. Two years ago James A. Norton was
elected to represent the Thirteenth
Ohio district In congress by a majority
at em. This was Mr. Norton's third
election, nnd when the republicans
demonstrated this year their approval
of his course In the usual manner, he
considered himself as good as elected,
avs the Salem Statesman. But subse
quent events Droved that 2000 girls em
ployed In an underwear factory had
the power to change the political com
plexion of Ihe district. This factory
was owned by a man named Jackson,
who had conceived the Idea that he
would like to go to congress. It was
not dlfficuult to set a democratic nom
ination In a district that had a clear
republican majority of 6000, and In due
time Mr. Jackson surprised his friends
by announcing himself a candidate for
congress There was another surprise
In store Tor the people of the district
' Mr. Jackson gave his 2000 girls a two
weeks' holiday, and in the letter com
municating his intentions he remind
ed them that the best of relations had
always existed between he young ladies
and himself, and that these relations
would not be Interrupted if he should
be elected to congress. The girls took
th hint. Whether a majority of them
were republicans or democrats is not
recorded, bnt they employed their hol
idav persuading men to vote for a
democrat The 6000 republican major
ity was piped out and a democratic
maV ritv of 2000 recorded In its place.
This is not referred to as a bit of fem
inine caprice on the part of the girls.
Mr. Jackson had been a model
employer. He had established high
schools, libraries and hospitals, and
riven them a good time when they
were well, and taken care of them
when they were sick. He had also
oaid them liberal wages, but not so
liberal that he could not pile up a snug
fortune for himself.
We have all heard so much about
"the meteor flag of Britain" that it will
come as a surprise to many in this
country to iearn that the English pap
ers are engaged in a discussion as to
what really constitutes the national
flaij, as the term is understood by
Americans. The charts of "flags of
all nations" give us several versions of
the British emblem, and every differ-
It is a singular thing that in the
popular view of disease the interde
pendence of the several organs of the
body is lost sight of. The heart, for
example, is diseased and it is treated as
if it were entirely separated from, and
independent of, every other organ.
The fallacy of this opinion is shown
by the cures of heart "trouble," liver
"trouble," kidney " trouble" and other
ao-called " troubles," effected by the use
of Dr. Tierce's Golden Medical Discov
ery. Primarily the "Discovery" is a
medicine for the cure of diseases of the
stomach and blood. But it cures dis
eases of organs seemingly remote from
the stomach, because these diseases have
their origin in a diseased condition of
the stomach and its associated organs
cf digestion and nutrition.
I doctored with three different doctor for
weak heart, but they did me BO good," writes
Mr. Julia A. Wilcoa, of Cygnet, Woud Co., Ohio,
oi " I waa ao tired and discouraged if 1 had
had my choice to live or die I would haw pre
ferred to die. My husband heard of ' Golden
Uediral Discovery 'and he bought a bottle. I
look that and the'Brat half teemed to help me.
I took sia bottles before I stopped. I am per
fectly well, and am cooking for si boarders
It has been a Godsend tome."

entlHtion and addition to the "union
luck" has some separate significance.
What was originally the "meteor" Hag,
presumably, is the red Held with the
union of crosses of St. George and St,
Andrew on a blue ground "canton"
would be the heraldic term In the
right-hand, or "dexter," upper corner;
but that Is employed now, according
tn the charts, only for ships of the
merchant service, and is known as the
"red ensign." There are also the white
and the blue ensigns. The union Hag,
or the "Jack." is the lighting flag, and

jack Stan, or nown at tne peaa '
admiral of the tieet. With certain ad- j

managers usually make them do on

flown by ships of war and yachts of
the royal squadron, and the blue en-
sistl on snips eottimanueu u utiu'eis

of the royal naval reserve. The red
and blue ensigns are the most fre
quently seen at our ports. It has come
in these latter days that the "union
tack" is regarded In the English popu-
lar mind as "the" Hag of the nation,
but there is, according to the Brooklyn
Standard L'nion, no legal authority for
so considering it, and one writer on
the tooic in England has suggested
that the king submit the matter to his
advisers and the college of arms for
adjudication The heralds should be
able to settle It "according to Hoyle,"
or at least Burke. Tills discuussion,
by thi way, recalls the fact that, what
with changes anl uncertainties, the
"stars and stripes" is the oldest es
tablished flag that Hies.
A aew census has been taken of the
population of China, which adds nearly
one hundred millions to the average
estimates of Europeans. The esti
mate of 400.000,0000 has been considered
as the result of estl mates arrived at by
a count of thickly settled provinces
applied to the entire territorial area of
the empire. The new census taken ny
Chines gives a total of 426,000,000. This
represents a gain of 43,000,400 on the
estimate of E. M. Koebler, a German
geographer, who conceded a population
of 380.000,000 ,in 1SS2. An increase of
46,000,000 In the population cf China In
20 years seems improbable, though the
percentage of Increase would he less
than that of the United States in the
same time. Accepting the census fig
ures as correct, they afford another il
lustration that poverty is no bar to
human productivity. The people of
China ar? poor and :,eem content to re
main poor. The requirements of life
are so small that one more mouth to
feed and one more tack to clothe seern
of little consequence. In the 1,'nittd
States the co-it of rearing a child as
the law requires to the working age is
hardly less thin $1,000. Thi3, if course,
does not include tne so-raUel higher
education or special accomplishments.
It represents the lvs'Ui'e cost of food
and clothing during a period of about
14 years, at which time the law per
mits the child to contrlb ite to its own
support.
