The American Flag as Redesigned in 1901 by Mark Twain. Ramparts, May 1968. 
“And as for a flag for the Philippine Province, it is easily managed. We can have a special one - our States do it: we can have just our usual flag, with the white stripes painted black and the stars replaced by the skull and cross-bones”
