North Hilo were sold at auction by
Land Agent Boyd at the Executive

sold and, with very few exceptions,
at upset prices. A few went above
the upset prices, notably No. II,

EXTENDING THE SUFFRAGE.

Old Families In England Losing Their
Political Power.
The forthcoming election of YES
tries in England, under the new
act of Parliament, gives every voter
in the village hand i'll the election
of the future vestries of the Church
of England, and for the first time
since the Norman conquest, democ-
racy has an opportunity 10 give
expression to its wishes in the
choice of parish officers and village
functionaries. The squirearchy
and noble families have from time
immemorial had the control of
the parish vestries, but now these
officers are to be chosen accord
ing to the will of the people, and
the old families are to take back
seat in the lay control of the
Church of England. This is first
step in the preparation of the mass
of the English people for the new
order of things, and, while it will
make mighty change in the rural
districts it is believed that it will
bring great and good results to the
nation.
1t will awaken, it is noted,
senses of social and political power
among the masses, and greatly in
crease the sense of responsibility
among all classes. 1t is nothing
less than a social revolution OF
great magnitude in the established
church.

A radical Improvement OF the upper

Speaking generally of the prof cct COL

The commissioners are now at work

exhaustive character. They will state
their unanimous conclusion that the
Colorado bar, which has caused so
much trou ole at the entrance to Grey
