THE MIKAD0.

Twenty-seven years ago, the Al-
kado. who ia now forty-two years
of age, assembled the throne OF
Japan. During his reign, there
has occurred one of the most re-
markable social and political reyo-
lutions of the last two hundred
years. An ancient and powerful
feudal system was broken up WIN
little friction, and the rights OF
man were broadly recognized
About one hundred years ago, the
French people, in reconstructing
their social and political lnstitu-
tons cut off the heads of twenty
thousand people, created general
anarchy, and finally involved all
Of the European nations In war;
under the Napoleonic dynasty.
The Japanese did better and In
short time, reached, apparently
higher plane of political and social
life. with less cost and sacrifice,
than the Anglo-Saxons, and Latins'
incurred in reaching the same
plane.
The Mikado has had, as rule,
good and shrewd advisers. lie
and they. have pursued the policy
of creating parliamentary govern
ment, the obliterating of social ana
feudal distinctions, the instruction
of the people in political and in
dustrial knowledge, and the max
ing of the empire, territorially, free
to all people.
The apparently remarkable pro
gress of this nation, is viewed with
much curiosity by many European
statesmen, who are inclined to
believe that the political leaders are
greatly in advance of the people,
and are really not in touch with
them. There is some evidence OF
this in the present outcry OF the
people against foreigners. The
people, also, still believe ia the
divine origin of the Emperor, and
when they give up that belief, as
they will do, in the course of time,
they will become less tractable
than they are now.
The result of the pending war
with China will have a strong in
fiuence on the new life of the
Japanese, and especially upon their
foreign relations.

OUR correspondent, "H.," is mis-
taken, we believe, in stating that
opium is used in the manufacture OF
cigarettes. 1t could be used il it would
pay, but the cost of using 1t would
put up the price Of cigarettes. we
well know one of the largest manu-
facturers in the world OF these articles,
and have been in his factory. On the
opium question he said: "Figure out
on a piece of paper the cost of an
amount of opium in each cigarette,
sufficient to produce some effect, and

MIR. HASTINGS SERVICE.

While every friend of the Re-
public recognizes the great ability
and skill with which Mr.. Thurston
has managed our foreign relations
in Washington, it is simple justice
for US to acknowledge the valuable
services of Mr.. Hastings, rendered
during the necessary absence OF
Mr.. Thurston from Washington,
during the formation of the new
Constitution of the Republic. We
say, on the best of authority, that
the provision in the American tar
if, which gives Hawaiians the
benefit of the duty on sugar, would
never have been made, excepting
for Mr.. Hastings energy, watchful-
ness and personal acquaintance
with the leading men in Congress.
One of the opponents of that pro-
vision said, openly, that Mr.. Hast
ings' hard work had secured the
exemption, and that the people OF
Hawaii were singularly fortunate
in having such a representative on
the ground. We need not say what
the vaiue of this provision of the
tariff law is, to the sugar interest.
So far, Mr.. Hastings has not even
received the cheap thanks" of the
community. 1t is this want OF
gratitude and appreciation OF good
work. which often makes thieves out
of men in public life. 1t is the rule,
especially in America, that an hon
est man in politics finds his good
work unappreciated, and SO ne re-
tires in disgust, or proceeds 20
"take care of himself" Then the
good people read about corrupt
nolitics," and wonder why every
thing is going to the dogs, and pray
for better times. Gratitude is the

IT is believed by some that the pod
of the algaroba furnishes gum arabic.
We have just received a report on that
matter from one of the largest dealers
in gum in the States, who has care
fully examined samples. He says
that the gum from the algaroba seed
is dark and inferior, and resembles
cheap gum from Mexico, which is sold
in limited quantities at from to
cents per pound. There is, therefore,
no outlook for trade in that article.

Literature on the Subject.

1t is only within recent years that the
properties of petroleum have been is
cussed through the medical journals.
Articles have appeared and given, in
very positive language, the most crafty
ing results from its use, both as medicine
and as reconstructive. Great value is
attributed to petroleum in the treatment
of consumption, bronchitis, Ia grippe,

especial value in all pulmonary

If the United States govern
ment should place no obstacles
in the way of the cable scheme
from Vancouver to the Colo
MES via Honolulu, Hawaii mel
will, within the next two years
take on new lease of life.
Instead Of a couple of third
rate steamers on the Canadian
line, there will be five Of the
hrst-class. Emigrants will
learn more about our country
and the lands will be settled by
the small farmer. Houchins'
Water Filters at a dollar
apiece will be in demand by
thousands instead of hundreds
as it is today. The islands will
be joined by local cable line
and the country in general will
be in the swim instead of the
soup. The advent Of a cable
will bring to our shores men
with progressive ideas, men
who by their acts will better
themselves, at the same time
improve the condition of the
country. Hawaii is all right; it
has the finest climate in the
world and the people would
wax rich on it if climate was
a commercial commodity-the
trouble is with the people.
Compared with the United
States, we arelivingi in the era, of
pantalettes instead of bloom
ers. Wewant new blood, some
thing that will make
us shake off the lethar-
gy that the people have lived
in since the time of whaleships.
Give us a cable and we will
have new blood. The news
papers, instead of publishing
boiler plate will give the news
of the world for breakfast.
You will learn, probably, that
the metallic refrigerator we
are selling is the greatest ice
saver of the age and that it is
economy, money in your purse
to buy one. We put thirty
pounds of ice in one of the
boxes on Friday evening and
it was not all melted until
Monday afternoon, keeping
the lower portion of the box
at a temperature of So Q all the
time. If you can get wood

will do better than that you
ought to buy one. We've
never seen them.
Incidentally we have men
toned Houchins' Tap Water
Filter; now we will tell you
what it is. An arrangement
that fits on to the faucet and
filters the muddy water as
clear as crystal. Talk about
microbes; they're not to be

where can you find anything
to equal the Houchin filter for
a dollar. We have them for
the regular "a hose pipe, the
size generally used here and
we expect a big demand for
them.

WISCONSIN, StOughton.-Progress
and improvements are still the order in
this parish. Mr.. Render has had charge
of this society only six weeks. but in
that time he has made many friends.
He has begun his work in a thorough
and systematic manner and seems to
have an unseltish desire to further the
best interests of the society.
The Sunday school continues to do
good work with Mrs. Parish as superin-

The Y. P. G. U. holds very interesting

the church. The Guild, an organization
of young people connected with the
church, meets every week and they are
doing good work. Mrs. P. l. Hale is

felt here the people are not going to let
it interfere with their religion or their
usefulness in the world.

Tame Squirrels At The Mountains.

One of the amusements which the
guests at the Breezy Hill House, Lisbon,
N. H., indulge in, is playing with and
feeding several chipmunks. or squirrels.
There are two which have their abiding
places in big wood pile and under the
piazza of the hotel. They will come out
from their hiding places and take nuts
from the hands of young and old. Some
times the guests put nuts upon their
shoulders and the little fellows will run
up the arm, fill their chops with them,
deposit them in their holes and come
back for more. They will pull away with
all their might at good sized nuts which
have been placed in the buttonholes Of
coat. and will not give up until they
have secured the prize. The children
lie down upon the grass with some nuts
in their hands, and the little fellows will
run all over them. They will reach up
to ones fingers and hold on until they
are drawn up and have found their nuts.
They seldom stop to eat, preferring to
cram their little cheeks full of the un-
cracked nuts for winter use. They pre-
sent a comical appearance as they scam
per off to their holes. No effort has been
made to tame these beautiful little crea-
lures, but they certainly show that they
can be tanned for the amusement Of
young and old.-BOston Evening Tran

entered bearing sheaves. All the exer-

which to help himself in extending his bust
