argue on the same lines, in fact,
this simply demonstrates that there
is nothing preconcerted in the eff
forts that are being made, thus
giving the lie to the annexation
bugaboo constantly raised in GER
tain quarters when the United
States are mentioned in connection
with Pearl Harbor.
Mr. Davies tells US that his pre-
vious letter did not express any
opinion on the subject of treaty re-
lations with the United States and
as he has not attempted to enlight-
en- US in this respect in his COM
munication Of to-day, I would re-
specially suggest the propriety of
his committing himself by answers
to the following questions -
First-Are you in favor of a
treaty with the United States
which shall allow free exchange
of commodities, the actual product
of the two countries?
Second-Are you in favor of ex-
tending the time for which Pearl
Harbor has been already granted
the United States by the treaty of
November 20, 1887, on the same
terms and conditions as are con-
tanned in said treaty?
If not what would you outline
as a possible course to pursue for
the purpose of re-establishing the
internal affairs of this country on
a reasonably prosperous basis?
These are the questions which
present themselves to every think
ing man in our island realm-our
answers must be straightforward,
candid, logical-where the neces-
sity for prompt action of some
kind is so urgent in our case, it be-
hooves US to lay aside PERSONAL
ties and make an honest effort to
fathom our requirements and pre-
pare the best possible conditions
for the future welfare of our island
community. l believe our inter-
ests will be best served by such
treaty as outlined herein and
being firmly convinced of the un-
bounded generosity with which the
United States have treated us in
the past, l see no reason to
mistrust her motives when she
seeks to establish an outpost for
her navy at Pearl Harbor.
hope we may hear more from
Mr.. Davies and others on this sub
ject.

Treaty Matters.

Mr.. EDITOR: | would rather
leave the discussion of treaty mat
tiers to those more capable than
myself to deal with the subject but
feel obliged to return to it on ac-
count of Mr.. Davies erroneous in
ference as to the source from which
I drew the conclusions presented in
my previous letter on the subject.
AS matter of fact | had not read
Mr.. Hartwells reply to Mr.. Davies
and was guided solely by my own
reading of Mr.. Davies letter, which
was before me as I wrote.
For the same reason Mr.. Hart
wells appeal did not reach me-
twas something more potent than
mere figure of speech that actua-
ted me then as now, to use my best
endeavors for the attainment OF
that which | have come to regard as
necessity to our national and in
dividual prosperity.

A SINGLE blackboard.

boards people going into the country
were unwilling to again be cramped up
in a buggy on surrey. They began to
ask the carriage makers for buckboards,
snd now, in place of the one plank with
a box for a seat, costing anywhere from
fifteen to twenty dollars, buckboards
come as high as $500. The passenger
does not use dry goods box, but up
holstered seats with cushioned backs,
and some builders have gone SO far as to
get out curved and cushioned seats.
Buckboards for eight people, instead of
being considered luxurious when the
plank was planned, now have rows of
cushioned seats, and, most remarkable
of all, they have springs.
The blackboard now has mere styles
than any other kind of trap and is quite
costly. The wood is usually stained
or vanished, but it is sometimes paint
ed. In fact, the vehicle has SO far de-
generated that almost any kind of trap
painted yellow is called q blackboard.
The cushions are generally yellow leath-
or or light corduroy that is certain to
shrink at the first wetting and give
forth a peculiar odor. Along with its
'o$Aer points of degeneration is its pres
ent liability to get out Of order. The
original blackboard was like the famous
lone horse chaise," warranted to last
forever, but the modern improvement is
forever going to the shop for repairs.
All the large carriage factories are to-
sr,eY wall Al Al
buckboards and are doing rushing
business.
The harness has kept pace with the
transformation of the old plank and
axles. With these any kind of harness
was used. The village shoemaker could
make good enough harness for the orig
inal blackboard. Both the blackboard
and the harness were yellow, because
that was the natural color of the wood
in the one case and of the leather in the
other.
The harness makers could not see any
money in Unframed harness, SO they
put the leather through various proc
esses until it became rich red yellow
They worked silver and even gold
plates into it, with monograms, rosettes
and other fancy things, until set of
harness for the modern blackboard costs
as much as that for trotter or carriage
Then of course the horse was changed

New ORLEANS, Sept. 9.--'sHe licked
me fair and square; he is quicker than |
am, but he is the only man in the world
who can lick me-" Thus spoke the ex-
Champion John L. Sullivan at an early
hour Thursday morning. John was in
the barroom of the st. Charles hotel
beginning to wboop it up as few can
but he. He spoke from his heart.
He was not one-half SO much broken
up as most persons would suppose. Phys
ically he showed a swollen nose and
black marks around the eyes-marks
that the man never had before in his
life, but his manner was not of the sui
len or disappointed kind, and his friends
remarked his pluck in defeat with pride.
A few daring individuals have the
nerve to say he was beaten because he
was not in condition. ''Look how fat
he was" is heard once in awhile, and
stories about his drinking while in train
ing are beginning to find circulation.
But with honest and experienced judges
there is but one opinion. That is that
Sullivan was whipped fairly on his mer-
its and that the Corbett of last night
could have done the same trick the best
day that Sullivan ever saw.
Corbett bears his honor with becom-
ing modesty, and so far his head re-
mains at its usual size. That he is per-
haps the happiest man in America is not
altogether unnatural, and that he shows
his joy is netSto be wondered at; but he
speaks to his friends and even to his
casual acquaintance as he always has
done and appears like the Jim Corbett
OF Wednesday OF year ago.
