The debate on the military bill in the German
reichstag has revived the well-wOrn controversy
concerning the cost and value OF the army and its
means OF maintenance. Deputy Richter leads the
attack upon the governments conservative policy
and urges the reduction OF the three years period
OF active service to two years, and the cutting
down OF the burdens of taxation under which the
people are groaning. As matter of fact, the
military glory which Germany enjoys has been
purchased at tremendous cost. On peace foot
ing, the latest estimates at hand show her army
10 number nearly half million OF men, the only
countries in excess OF this being France with a
lew thousand more soldiers, and Russia with an
army hall again as large. Germany pays some
ninety-three millions OF dollars year TO keep up
her defensiye establishment, TO Frances hundred
and Russia's hundred and fifty millions. But the
mere outlay III gold and silver from the treasury
does not represent the Whole cost OF her system to
the empire. The enforced service of her
young men-their liability TO be called AWAY
from the practice OF the peaceful arts and
subjected TO the harsh discipline and manifold
perils OF army life-not only robs her industrial
and commercial communities OF their most ener-
get1c element, but causes a constant stream of
emigration 10 other countries. Statistics compiled
two years ago show that some three million Ger
mans. born in the fatherland, have established a
legal residence In other countries. Seven hundred
thousand Germans migrated within the ten years
preceding 1873, 10 the neighbor1ng states OF Eu-
rope alone, 10 say nothing OF the great effiux to
the two Americas, the civilized parts OF Asia
and Africa and 10 the English settlements OF Aus
tralia- These figures can certainly afford no en-
eOuragement TO the war fanatics who insist upon
keeping up the present system and grinding the
faces OF the taxpayers to do IL. There may be
glory In IT now, but IL is only question of time
when the sources of supply, both human and ma
terial, must run dry, and then-what?

One curious feature in the Wflson-Moen case
which seems 10 have escaped general attention
was the triumphant quotation OF the official rec
ordS as convincing proof OF the date OF birth OF
the young hOrse-doctOr- The records kept I'm the
State OF Massachusetts, must differ essentially
from those Kept anywhere else they can be cited
Tor proof positive ON point like this The official
registration OF a birth shows nothing more than
that q male child or a female child. as the case
may be, was born, on a certain date and at a Ger

almost nothing. unless external procf can be pro

Tide following resolution was adopted by the
women's Christian Temperance convention in st.

Tide following resolution was adopted by the
women's Christian Temperance convention in St.
Louis yesterday:
a.Whereas the newspapers report that Mrs
whitney, wife OF the Secretary OF the Navy, not
long since gave dinner at which were present
eighteen Ladies, including President Cleyeand's
young wife, but no gentlemen, and whereas the
papers report that courses of different alcoholic
drinks were served; therefore, be il resolved. That
the w. C.. T. L., OF Missouri, express their deep
modification and regret that ladies in this high
social position should themselves set this bad ex-
ample 10 the people OF this already drink diseased
country: and be IL further resolved, that the sec
rotary OF this convention transmit a copy of this
resolution to Mrs. Cleveland"
The authors of this resolution doubtless mean
well but they have an unfortunate way of express
ing their benevolent purpose. III they are going
regularly into the business OF publishing remon-
stranceS OF this sort, they should do two things
make a clean sweep, and employ an editor. 1t Is
rather hard to single out one lady in Washington
from among hundreds on an equally high social
plane in this and other cities to receive castigation
for whole class. Fairness at least dictates that
resolutions OF a similar tenor should be adopted
almost daily for the rebuke OF some lady well
known in society who entertainS her friends at
luncheon and provides something stronger than
tea and coffee Stimulant to their appetiteS
But, aside from this, the services OF an editor
1mperatiyely dema nded by the W. c. T. u, of
Missouri. An experienced supervisor OF literary
manuscript would have run his blue pencil
through the reference 10 the absence of gentlemen
from the festivity under ceusure; for the natural
inference would be that the dispensing OF alec
hOlic drinks was more eXcUSable In a mixed COM
pany OF both sexes than In aSsembiage OF ladies
alone Whereas If there be any serious wrong ap-
prehend from such Indulgence under any circum-
stances, IL would seem the part OF prudence TO
cOn1ne the gathering To one sex. Another sug-
gestiOn the editor would probably make-that is,
that IL would be more hitting TO send an engrossed
copy OF the resolution TO the lady against whom
the criticism is aimed than to one OF her guests
The guests at a luncheon are not responsible for
the choice OF what is set before them 10 eat and
drink; that rests with the host alone except in
the case of a picnic party. which is beyond all
rules. Indeed, the editor might have presumed so
lar upon the discretion granted him by his en-
plOyerS 10 propose that the whole resolution be
laid indefinitely on the table, at least kept out
OF the public prints, and that private appeal by
letter be resOrted TO instead, not only because If
would be more likely to accomplish the specific
object OF preventing repetitiOnS OF the alleged
oense, but because IL would spare very respect
able reform movement the drawback OF being
made subject OF public jest.

a feeble description of . truly grand exhibition"
he Republican of November 80 wrote;

A TOUGH STORY.

There is class of Freemasons
who are as great sticklers for their
rituals as the Episcopalians are for
theirs. One of this sort, writes a
correspondent of the louisville
Courier journal, was master of an
Indiana lodge, and by an over exer-
else of authority came to grief. He
had trained his lodge to observe his
commands with absolute precision,
and among the rest never to take
their seats in the lodge until the ga
vel fell. One night he had them on
the rise, performing the exercise
peculiar to the craft, when suddenly
he slipped, stumbled backward,
broke the window sash, fell four
stories to the ground, broke his
neck, and died instantly. Next
day the neighbors were Mortified at
the discovery of his cadaver. They
had grand funeral, only it was
noticed that not mason was pre-
sent. In fact the Masons had dis
appeared. Their estates were set
tied, widows married again, and in
time all forgotten. A quarter of a
century passed away, when some
boys, monkeying round the upper
story of the Courthouse, found a
skeleton. The alarmed population
broke open the doors, and sight
was presented that might have been
appalling but for its whimscalness.
Thirty skeletons were standing gaz-
ing intently at the broken sash, and
waiting for the master to come back
and give that one knock which
would enable them to take their
seats. This incident may by some
be deemed incredible, but l have
myself seen one of the skeletons.

On Monday, Mar. l, 1886,
At l2 o'clock, noon, at the auction rooms
Of Il. p. Adams & Co., Queen
Street, Honolulu.

DARTIES desiring good investment
l. in the Hawaiian Islands will have
Il rare opportunity in the purchase of
the Rose Ranch property, lately owned
by Captain James Makce, on the Islands
of Maui.
This estate comprises over eleven
thousand a ,O00) acres of land held in
fee simple, and about ten thousand
100000 acres held under lease to run
six years longer. The stock on the estate
comprises about $500 head of well-bred
cattle, including 100 yoke working cat
tie and 800 milch cows and 90 horses
and mules.
The buildings consist of main dwell
ing house, guests cottages, Office, bill
lizard room, chapel, dairy and beef
houses, store, overseer's house, servants
quarters, etc., etc.
There are between three and four
hundred thousand trees on the estate, of
varieties of eucalyptus, acacia, cypress,
Pride of India, cedar and cinchona.
The cistems for water are II in num-
ber. the largest capable of holding
$1,000 barrels.
Steamers from Honolulu stop ut the
landing of the estate once week. The
passage from Honolulu to- the landing is
made in II hours by steamer. Hundreds
of citizens of California and the Eastern
States have experienced the hospitality
of the late Captain Makce, who will
bear willing testimony to the natural
beauties of the estate and To the salub-
rity of the climate.
