No prince in gilded panoply, no convince the people that they no longer need to stand for/could hold @ candle to the things that ha treachery and betrayal of trust at the hands of their public Officials Only one crooked politician out of one hundred is ever con victed. Guarded by their henchmen on every side and defended by the best attorneys available, they are able to take advantage of every ridiculous technicality and loophole permitted by our present botched legal system. , When, then, one is really caught and brought face to face with justice the people should feel hopeful of better things Wappenstein is guilty, but he is only one member of a cor- rupt gang, the whole of which must be destroyed if Seattle is to be free.

Old Glory’s Official Bi The Meaning of the Colors The writing below is a fac simile etching reproduced from the original resolutions passed on June 14, 1777, creating the American fing, It is the handwriting of Charles Thomson, secretary of the con- tinental congress, It has all the letters “i” dotted, but the letters “t” are left uncrossed. The records do not show any debate or discussion of the subject, yet the face of the resolution indicates some changes from its first intention === The flag resolution, as published in present books, differs from the above single sentence, which reads: “Resolved, That the flag of the United States be 12 stripes, alter- nate red and white, that the union be 1% stars, white in a blue field, representing a new constellation.” Historians and writers all vary as to the definition of its- colors, and upwards of 40 varieties of symboliams have been attributed to the three heraldic tinctures, but a recent Investigator says that he copled from original records at the state department the following meaning of the colors: z Red--Signifies hardiness and valor. White—-Purliy and innocence.
