SLAVS PROTEST
AGAINST A FLAG
National Slavonian Society
Wins at Washington.
Government Refuses Free
Admission of a Valuable
Banner Sent to the United
States From Hungary.
Local Slavonians and Hungarians are
very much interested In a decision ren
dered at Washington yesterday, and a
decided difference of opinion on the
justice of the opinion delivered by the
authorities has developed. The point
at. issue Is whether or not a flag now on
its way to the United States should be
admitted free of duty. The flag Is be
ing brought to this country by a delega
tion of Au9tro-Hungarian noblemen who
have boon deputed to present It to the
Hungarians of the United States in
order to bind them more closely to their
mother country.
On the ground that Its acceptance
would border on treason to the govern
ment of this, their adopted country, the
National Slavonic Society has made a
successful protest to the authorities at
Washington against the admission free
of duty of the flag. The members say
they don't want to bo bound, but want
to show their loyalty to the United
States, and they declare that the Inscrip
tion on the flag would mako it un-
American for thoui to accept it.
A. S. Ambrose, of Now York, presi
dent of the society, whilo in Freeland
last Thursday, sent the following tele
gram to Washington: "As an Ameri
can citizen of Hungarian birth, I pro
test against the admission free of duty
of tho Hungarian flag now on the way
to this country. Letter follows."
Last night tho following telegram
was received in reply to the message
sent by Mr. Ambrose: "Free entry
Hungarian flag denied. 11. A. Taylor,
assistant secretary." This message
came from the treasury department at
Washington.
The inscription on tho flag which the
Slavs object to reads: "Ho dauntlossly
loyal to your fatherland, oh Magyars."
Mr. Ambrose has sent a letter to
President Roosevelt in which ho says in
"The so-called National League* of
Hungary has seen lit to present to tho
people of Hungarian origin In tho United
States a costly banner. I object to tho
acceptance of this gift for two reasons.
The gift was prompted by the Hungar
ian government and partly paid for by
officials of that government. The dele
gation on its way lias for its spokesman
a person paid by that government. The
object of the inscription on tho llug is to
create a sort of bond between tho Hun
garians in tho United States and those
abroad. I base my objection to the ac
ceptance of the gift on the ground that
tho motives that prompted It aro un-
Amorican and foreign to the intents of
our institutions."
Similar letters were sent to Secretar
ies 11 ay and Shaw.
One of tho officers of the objecting
society said today: "The minister
president of Hungary contributed SSOO
to pay for tho flag, which Is very costly.
A government official heads tho delega
tion and Consul General DessewiTy, at
New York, Is to receive It. This is but
one of many schemes which the Hun
garian government is using to instill
into the minds of Hungarians in the
United States feelings unfriendly to this
government."
Socialists Open Campaign.
The campaign of tho Socialist party
was opened in Freel&nd Wednesday
evening with a meeting at tho corner of
Centre and South streets, where several
hundred people had assembled to hoar
the addresses. Charles Jacquot was

from SI,BOO to $2,000 a year.

that tho last legislature appropriated
$140,000 to sectarian institutions, all
Catholic, against the committee's pro
test. President Noll said: "I fear that
tho tendencies of many of the brother
hoods are too strong pro-Catholic when
I recall that some of tho most virulent
attacks made on "organizations of this
character havo come from Protestant
sources. Lot us bo consistent in our
proclam&tious of patriotic duty and
protest against any denomination inter
fering with our public Institutions."
President Noll was asked whether a
member violated his oath when he took
a striker's position, and he answerod: ;
"Most certainly not."

TRI-WEEKLY
Would Not Insure Him.
Insurance Companies Refused,
to Insure the Rev. J. VV.
Yeisley Because He Had
Kidney Troubles.
This case is but one of thousands
where the head of the house was re
fused insurance, because ho had kidney
trouble. Mr. Yeisley had given up in
despair when some friend recommended
Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy
and it cured him.
Mr. Yeisley writes:
"My kidneys and liver wero In bad
condition and 1 was anxious for re
lief. I had tried many remedies
without success and when I bought
a bottle of 'Favorite Remedy,'it was
with but little faith in its ever help
ing me, but in a short time it effec
tively proved its merit. Perhaps the
bost proof I can give that it has
completely cured mo is to state that
1 have since been accepted by four
different life insurance companies."
The Rev. Mr. Yeisley is the pastor
of the First Reformed church, of St.
Paris, Ohio, and is as well the editor of
the St. Paris Dispatch.
There is no question that Dr. David
Kennedy's Favorite Remedy is the best
and surest medicine in the world for dis
eases of the kidneys, liver, bladder, aad
blood, rheumatism, dyspepsia and
chronic constipation, as well as the
weaknesses peculiar to women. It
quickly relieves and cures inability to
hold urine and the necessity of getting
up a number of times during the night.
It puts an end to that scalding pain
when passing urine and corrects tho
bad effects of whiskey and beer.
