Tennessee was risiled last week bjr
flood ol rerjr unusual severity anil the
resulting loss ol life and property
makes it a calamity et importance.
Some 14 lives are known to bsve been
lost and $1,000,000 worth of property
was destroyed. It is such fantastic
climatic occurrences ss this in other
places that gives reminders to the peo
ple of the Pacific coast of their own
climatic advantages.
Senators Tillman and MiLsuriii, of
South Carolina, have tendered their
resignations, to take effect on November
15 at which time they will go before the
people In a joint canvass to allow the
people to decide between them at the
primaiies. This position is the outcome
of a spirited debate between the senators,
who are determined opponents on many
issues and they have o arranged that
only one of them will continue In office
afier next fall.
It is very likely that Aguinaldo will
visit the United mates neit It II lie
hss informed General McArthur of such
desire on his psrt and no objection is
likely when the proper tune arrive',
though It Is not deemed advisable at
present to sulfur any laxity of restraint,
his own safety making this course neces
sary at the preterit time. He is reported
as quits anxious to come to the United
States and study our institutions and is
advised to this course by Judge ArHano,
one of the ablest of Filipinos. The
acceptance of American institutions by
Filipinos of ability Is a tr.ost encourag
ing feature of the Philippine matter.
One hundred and sixty glaea jars of
large six and all of them filled with
fruits of Oregon, were loaned to Califor
nia for exhibition at Paris. They were
asked for by the Californians, for the
purpose of helping out their exhibit, and
the Californians promised to let them
csrry the Oregon labels. Of the 100
jars only thirteen were returned : the
remainder "disapieared." Those that
were returned bore labels as California
fruits. The Oregon labels were turned
to the wall at Psrli, and California labels
pasted on the front of the jars. The few
that were returnsd are now at Buffalo,
where anybody who may desire can see
the exposure of the California trick.

The United Htates supreme court, In a
decision lately tendered, disposes of the
much argued question as to whether or
not the constitution follows the flag.
Their decision is that it does not. The
clause, "all duties, imposts and excises
shall be uniform throughout the United
Htates" is held in the opinion of the
court, not to apply to the territorial
possessions, and the claim is put forth
that the trainers of the constitution had
no thought ef its application In that
sense, but was Inwrted to allay the
jealousies of the various states. The
court went back to the beginning, when
the constitution was framed and en
deavored to ascertain the intent ol the
founders ot the nation.
President McKinlcy and party
atarted on their homeward trip on
Saturday. Mrs. McKinlcy was greatly
improved and seemed elated at the
thought of going home. All demonstra
tion was avoided and though large
crowds assembled they evinced a
thoughtful consideration for the con
dition ol the invalid and were commend
ably quiet. McKinley's visit to ths
Pacific coast has not been altogether
joyful, but it can not be said to tie a
failure. He has been brought into
closer touch with the people, ss a man,
and has made many Iriemls. His Isilh-
lul devotion and kindness to his invalid
wife lit I been productive ol a sentiment
towsrd him ol warmheartedness that no
amount ol executive ability could have
produced.
It is quite likely that the customary
yacht race for the America cup will not
materialise this year. Sir Thomas I. in

been altogether satisfactory and now it is

It is pleasant to unnerve, as the years

and a day which must bring Hie old ex

of rancour or ill feeling, but on the con

Memorial Sunday,
The churches united Sunday morninif
in the memorial services at the i'resby
terisn church. The church wss deco
rated very appropriately and beautifully
with the national colors and with floral
decorations. There wss a very Urge
attendance. The front sections were
reserved for the U. A. It , W. It C. and
the Boy's Brigade, which orgiinixitions
attended in a body.
Prayer was offered by Rev. C. A. Dot
son, Sunday-sellout Held worker, and
scripture reading snd prayer by Itev. N.
F. Jenkins of M. K. church. A grsnd
anthem was rendered by the choir,
followed by a most excellent and
appropriate sermon by Rev. C. W. Hays.
Mr. Hays divided his discourse into to
portions; the first, "Why Should We
Honor the Soldier;" the second, "Our
Dutiee and Responsibilities to the
Soldier." The sermon was lull of good
thoughts throughout and from among
the many, the following were gleaned;
Why honor the soldier more than the
cititen? No man can be a true soldier
who is not a good cititen. It ia not be
cause he differs from the citixen, but
because ha has added to his citizenship."
Our heart goes out lo the people who
