thoroughly settle this township organ
ization scheme. Again, in counties of
the population and wealth ofRed Willow
there are practically no advantages to be
derived from the cumbersome and ex-
pensive supervisor system over the pres
ent commissioner plan. The movement
should be firmly discouraged. It is a
mistake.

COMMENT upon the Hawaiian
incident will go lame until the ad-
Ininistration shall have fully shown
its hands. Apparently we shall
have to wait for the disclosure un-
til the arrival of the steamer from
Honolulu. 1t is hard to understand
why the facts upon which the adj
ministration policy is based should
not be published. There is no pol
icy of "let alone" possible so long
rs the United States shall insist
upon supervisory right to main
tain Hawaiian independence. To
thrust back an 0dious rule upon
the people at the point of Yankee
bayonets, however, would involve
more extreme and audacious in
terpositioh than was the protector
ate declared by Minister Stevens
and repudiated by President Har.
rison. The only logical thing to dc
with Hawaii is to proclaim the
actual situation and assume all the
responsibility thereof.

staining Floors.

The popularity of stained floors goes
on increasing. Nowhere are they more
appreciated than in sleeping rooms
where sweetness and freshness are the
main considerations. just what is the
best stain is difficult question to de.
eide, although permangnnate of potash
is believed to possess many advantages,
1t is much used in the navy, and is very
satisfactory in sitting rooms and sleep
ing rooms. AS most people know, per.
manganate not only stains, but purifies
and disinfects the rooms which are
stained. The mode of procedure is this
Procure good quality of perman
ganate of potash and dissolve about an
ounce and a half of the crystals in a
gallon of boiling water. This will
make quite dark stain. Use stick
to stir up the mixture; then, with a
painters fiat brush, lay on the stain,
working the way of the wood quickly
and boldly.-National Builder.
