PEACE OVER THE WORLD
The Three Most Recent Wars We're Civil
Wars and Two of Them Were Short.

The Three Most Recent Wars We're Civil
Wars and Two of Them Were short.
New York Sun; From the EQUATOR
to the poles the world is in the en-
ioyment OF peace at this time. The
civil war in Salvador, which lasted
seve al wearisome weeks, has ended
in the overthrow Of President EzeUa;
the civil war in Guatemala, which
lasted for several months, ended in
the overthrow of President Barrios;
the civil war in Brazil, which lasted
Tor about a year and half, ended
in the triumph OF the government Of
President Peixoto, Last year the
French were successful in the war in
Siam and the English were success
full in the war against Lobengula in
Southern Africa, and the Spaniards
had some fighting with the Riffs Of
Morocco But II ls many years since
there were hostilities upon a large
scale In any part of the world, and
the people of this generation who can
recall the last ruthless war between
any two OF the great powers, the
FraDco.German war, must have
reached at least middle age. All Of
the wars fought since 1871 seem
small and inconsequentlal when COM
pared with the colossal wars which
were waged between the rise Of
Napoleon l. and the fall OF Napoleon
Ill
At nearly all times, however, there
are apprehenslons OF the outbreak
Of hostllities in some parts Of the
globe. Russia may come into con-
dict with England In Asia or there
may be failing out between France
and Germany, or England ana France,
or France and Italy. The dreaded
4" Eastern question" may be raised,
or the Egyptian question, or the
Congo question, or any one OF a
dozen other questions pertaining to
national rivalries in Europe, Asia, or
Africa. Within very short period
both Roumana and Morocco have
attracted the interest Of statesmen
and soldiers The old saying that
"a spark may raise confagration"
Is always in the memory OF every
European power
But many Of the incidents which
have been regarded as ominous with.
in recent years have been closed
without any violation Of the public
peace; and perhaps some Of these
incidents which awake apprehension
in these times may also be thus
peacefully closed.
At all events, the whole world Is
now at peace, and that part OF it in
which peace seems TO be the Rest
assured is the great and happy
country over which waves the Star
Spangled Banner.

THE HAND OF EsAU.

The petition presented by lead,
ing Chinese to the Councils yester-
day was objected tosbecause it con-
tanned the following paragraph:
We also appreciate the fact that
established for the Hawaiian Islands,
it will be impracticable for the Presl-
dent of the Provisional Government
to enter into direct diplomatic cores
pondence with the Imperial Chinese
Government.
This was held to contain an in
furious imputation upon the Pro-
visional Government. That Gov
eminent is possessed of all the
powers of a sovereign de facto and
de jure, and has full authority to
treat upon equal terms with the
Chinese or any other empire.
1t goes without saying, however,
that the Chinese who presented the
petition yesterday did not intend
to reflect upon the present Govern
ment in any improper way. Their
petition was probably drafted by
some royalist lawyer, whose dis
position is more splenetic than
legal.

sent an immense gain to
Honolulu in a variety of ways,
and could hardly fail to be
eventually profitable. These are
DAYS, moreover, when labor is
sorely in need of employment, and
the expenditure within the next
two years of one or two hundred
thousand dollars in the manner in
dictated would tighten the situa
ton materially.
If private individuals will not
take up this proposition, let the
Government do it. We believe
that the time has come for the
Hawaiian State to institute a sys-
tenn of public improvements on its
own account. AS soon as the per-
manent form Of government is
established, the State will be able
to borrow at lower rate than any
private nrm or corporatlon,a no DOR
rowing cheaply it can build cheap
ly. There is no reason why the Peo-
pie itself should not take in hand
several enterprises of a public ma
ture, and either construct for them
selves, or guarantee the bonds of a
private corporation. In the latter
case, the Government should re-
ceive an equivalent in stock, as it
should not lend it's credit without
compensation.
It is to be hoped that someone
will show a sense of the practical
value of Mr.. Warehouses; offer by
securing careful estimate of the
cost of an electric road to the Pail.

A LIBERAL OFFER.

Mr.. John Thomas Waterhouse
makes an offer in this mornings
paper which will excite universal
interest all over the islands. He
promises to pay $4,000 to any
company which will build an cleo
trio or cable road up Nuuanu Valley
to the Pail, the work to be begun by
the first of January, 1895, and
completed within two years there
after.
Mr.. Warehouse is thoroughly in
earnest about this matter, and
means every word he says. He is
ready to bind himself legally for
the execution of his promise, and
is ready to give security for the
money, over and above. Beyond
his mere interest in this enterprise
as a land owner in Nuuanu Valley,
he is animated by the zeal of
public-spirited citizen for the pro-
gress and prosperity of the country.
There is nothing chimerical
about the proposition to build a
trolley road up the valley, if, as we
are assured by experts, the grade
presents no difficulties which cam
not be overcome at very moderate
cost. The road could reach the
waterfront by at least two routes,
and it could be extended along the
beach road through Kapiolani
Park, without interfering with the
franchise of the Tramway Com
pany. Thus constructed: it would
absorb the bulk of the through
traffic, besides some. of the short
distance travel. It would repre-

The undersigned offers a bonus
of ten thousand dollars to any
party obtaining a franchise from
the Hawaiian Governments for an
Electric or Cable Car Road from
Honolulu to the Pail, the work to
commence on or before January 1,
1895, and to be completed within
two years from that date. Pay
ment will be made of one-fourth,

far as the Electric Light Works !;
another $4,000, when as far'as the
Half Way House, and the balance
OF $4,000 when complete and the
first car is run over the road-the
Government to be judge of the
work being done satisfactorily. AS
L am now on borrowed time, I pro-
pose to give security to parties con-
tracing on the above terms.
Any parties or syndicates ready
to contract l shall be happy to con-
fer with. Yours truly,

grand future for it; and now is the
time to do it cheap.

the Hawaiian question where it car

that is to say, in Hawaii. AS a
Democrat and as patriotic Ameri.
can, the Admiral reached long age
the inevitable conclusion of patriot
ism and political common sense,
and he communicates the same in
a private letter to the Hon. G. L.
Macarthur, of Troy:
The Democratic party of Jefferson,
Madison, Jackson, Polk, Pierce, Mar
cy. Wright, Dix, Dickinson, Buch-
time, used to have a pronounced,
courageous, and vigorous foreign po-
Icy. These great men, founders and
leaders of the party, bore'as true and
high-minded conceptions of the inter-
ests, the dignity, and the destinies of
the United States, as regards the ex-
tension of their domain and their
commercial and political advantages
and power as the politicians and
statesmen of today can have.
/ submit that when people or a
nation stops all progress in the way
of extension of territory and of COM
mercial dominance, its days of deca-
dence are already begun. To such
affirmation, witness the unceasing
efforts of the principal powers of
and to increase their interest of traffic
and political control in order to en-
ploy their people, diversity their in
dustries, and bring receipts into their
treasures.
/ believe it will be q fatal mistake
if the United States concludes to let
the:Hawaiian Islands go by default to
some other flag.
The Hawaiian Islands will not
go by default to any ether flag.
They are marked for the star
spangled banner. It will be in the
power of no individual, and of no
political party, to prevent the

due course of time.

national interests with those of the
people of Hawaii need be disheart-
ened by the circumstance that one

WITH US, BUT NOT OF US.

The claim of Chinese to the fran
chise is a claim to privilege
which they do not possess in their
own country, which has no root in
its laws and institutions, and
which can only be justified upon
the assumption that those who
make it have completely assimilat-
ed the ideas of the world of west
ern freedom. No one will pretend
that even the best Chinese in this
community have done anything of
the kind. Many of them are ex-
cellent men, of long residence, of
large property, fully identified, SO
far as their material interests are
concerned, with the country of their
adoption. What marks them all,
however, is that they remain in
religion, in social life and manners,
in everything which makes up the
civilized man, essentially aliens.
They have therefore no qualifica-
ton for the franchise beyond the
bare fact that they have taxable
property within the limits and
to the jurisdiction of
the Hawaiian Islands.

There's a rather interesting
bit of loveliness in the shape
of a lamp down In our store
that we would like you to see.
| It's been here sometime, be-
cause the price was too high
for the average lamp user;
we've cut it down a half so
that it may go to the home of
some one who likes really good
things for the parlor. Some
persons prefer bright metal
for lamps, because they are
more snowy; we don't, neither
do most people abroad. Oak
makes up into lovely furniture,
but where is there a piece of
it for rarlor decoration that
compares with ebony. So it is
with lamps-high class lamps,
the wrought iron style, as
black by comparison as the
Ace of Spades, is richer and
adds more to the furnishing OF
a room than a half dozen
polished ones. We can give
you either style, but the
Wrought Iron is the best, this
one is better than the best,
because it has a fount made of
lockwood Pottery decorated
in subdued tints.
Other lamps, good, bad and
Indifferent, in so far as styles
go, are as thick with us as flies |
around a sugar barrel. We |
don't ask you to believe all we
say about lamps, we don't |
believe it ourselves; come |
along and see for yourself.
Until the tariff business is
settled in the United States,
there will be a feeling of un-
rest among sugar producers in
Hawaii owing to the doubt
about the duty on foreign
sugars. To relieve this restless
feeling and in a measure to
compensate the planter for the
loss he may have sustained
through the Mckinley bill, we
have decided to advise every
owner of land on the islands
to adopt the Jones Locked
Fence as a measure of eco
nomy. From fifty to twenty
five dollars per mile may be
saved by it's use and it will be
staunch for years when an
fence will fall from
it's own weight.

PARSlMONY IN FEEDING.
There Is Such a Thing as Shoddy In Fooo

There Is Such n Thing as Shoddy In Fooo
as Well as in Cloth.
The first essential thing in stock
raising is to provide an abundance of
tirst-class foods of sufficient variety, and
the next thing in impor lance is a judi
cious use of it. Animals may be in
jured by overlooking as well as by
starving. Too much food is especially
dangerous II the animals are confined
too strictly TO single article of diet or
a one-sided food. An article like corn
is almost wholly composed of starch or
carbon and another product may con-
tain too large proportion of nitrogen
or phosphate, while aproper combina-
ton of these would prove profitable
as balanced ration, requiring less
amount of product to secure the same
result.
A dairyman of experience says: Par
simony is one, and very mean thing,
and economy is another, most excel,
lent thing They are widely different,
yet it is common for them to be con-
founded and mistaken for one another.
Not infrequently, men who think they
are practicing the virtue, economy. are
really guilty of the vice, parsimony This
mistake occurs in all various walks of
life, but am to-day only interested in
some forms of it in dairy practice.
There is much talk in the papers and
from the platform, by writers and lee
turers, as to the necessity for cheapen-
ing production. Now, am painfully
aware of the vise-like grip of compete
ton on prices, and the consequent ex-
treme difficulty of ,salSing both ends
meet, but l am quite sure that the
cheapening may be overdone-that in
trying to cheaper production one may
injure the product and seriously impair
the producer. In trying to reduce the
cost of COW food one may spoil the
quality of the butter and injure the
cows. There is such thing as shoddy
in food as we'll as in cloth. Western
