A Lesson In National Geography.


nov that the Advertiser must de-
vote columns to defending the ex-
istence of the Republic of Hawaii,
by comparing her to the insigni6-
cant, microscopic specks on the
globe, which claim to be indepen-
dent, and for political reasons are
allowed to 'emain so.
The official organ quotes the New
York Mail and Express, and evil
IDENTIFY feels happy in having the
praise and the backing of that
sheet.
We think it only fair to criticise
the statements made by the paper
referred to, through which the re-
public of Mr.. Dole is landed to the
skies as stable and tenable.
Pitcairn Island, which is called an
independent republic, has for CEN
tury been an English possession,
aud the Union Jack flies over its
beach, and its affairs are admins
tered by the Governor of New South
Wales.
Franceville, is one Of the New
Hebrides, and is also claimed by
New Caledonia. The island is con-
.sequently neutral joint-territory be-
tween England and France by treaty,
although absolutely controlled by
the former. There is no indepen-
dent government there, although
the few settlers are allowed to run a
municipal government pretty much
as they like under the approval of
the two powers. There are less than
fifty foreigners on the rock.
The statements in regard to the
European republics, shows the ex-
treme ignorance of the New York
Mail and Express. The Island of
Tavolara, with population of
about fifty people, is called an inde-
pendent republic, and is placed by
the wise geographer quoted by The
Advertiser, "some dozen miles from
the Scandinavian coast" The TIA
lian flag flies over the barren Island
of Tavolara, near Sardinia, and it is
probably to that out-jutting speck
of land that reference is made.
Goust, between Spain and France,
is undoubtedly independent be-
cause in that little district are
passes over the Pyrenees, which in
the hands of either of its great
neighbors would be menace to the
other. AS an independent republic,
it is not even recorded or recog-
nized. 1t is simply strip of land
declared neutral by it's powerful
neighbors.
The so-called Republic of An
dora is similarly situated between
France and Spain, but is under the
immediate protectorate OF the
former power, which appoints it's
chief magistrate and virtually con-
trolls its affairs.
Mausuet, between Belgium and
France, is another narrow strip of
neutral territory, recognized by the
European powers, especially France
and Germany, who, at all times,
have their eyes on the wealthy king
dom of Leopold, and the small
Grand Duchy Of Lexenburg, which
is also neutral territory.
And to other such strips of land,
not even registered in the official
almanacs, or calendars, is the repub-
lie of Dole compared
The New York paper knows no
better, but we think, that the Adver-
>tiser should have hesitated before
making these comparisons which
indeed are odious to the powerful,
the wealthy, and the super-intelli-
gent republic of the late honest j. l..

q mOSC serious MANNER uuTlng
the late epidemic of what vital
Importance pure water is to all
human beings. While our me-
dical men have differed in OPT
Mon in regard to the nature
and treatment of the epidemic
which now fortunately is ended,
there has only been one opinion
in regard to the imperative
necessity of having an am
pie supply of pure water
for all purposes. In Homo
lulu the water supply is now
plentiful both for drinking pur-
poses and for irrigation. The
same cannot be said for the
country districts. In many
places it is necessary for the in
habitants to carefully save rain
water in tanks especially where
artesian wells are impossible.
1t has been great help to
people living in the country
that we have introduced the
celebrated Aermotor in these
islands. Many people have
availed themselves of the golden
opportunity to purchase one of
our galvanized Aermotors, and
they have in all instances ex-
pressed themselves as highly
satisfied with the bargain.
The Aermotor is especially
appreciated because it runs in
the lightest wind. Being geared
back three to one, it starts with
only a third Of the load that the
ordinary mill has to contend
with. This enables it to start
and run in a zephyr so light
that all competitors stand idly
by. Again, its lightweight and
perfect bearing enable it to face
up to and get the full benefit of
the breeze. The wheel is so
light and its efficiency so great
that it is an absolute calm in
deed which induces it to stand
still.
The lightweight of the Aer-
motor is strong point in it's
favor. The weight affects the
cost of transportation; the ease
of handling and erection; the
facility of turning on the tower
to face the wind for work; the
regulation for safety in high
wind; the recovery of working
position when danger is past;
the sagging Of the tower out of
shape; the vibration and break
ing of the tower in storm
and consequently the weight.
strength and cost of tower and
foundations. The Aermotor
only weighs about two-fifths as
much as the other mills which
do the same work. The great
disparity in weight is in part
made possible by the use of
steel, malleable iron, and the
very best materials throughout,
and explains why so excellent a
piece of work can be turned out
at so low a price.
We invite farmers and others
who have use for an Aermotor
to call in at our stores, or write

Our clipping yesterday from the
Glasgow Weekly Mail shows that
Great Britain is not asleep on the
likelihood of Russia or Japan
attacking her colonies in North
America. OF course the E.jingo"
Americans will say that this is all
done to scare the U. S. What folly
that is, is evident on inspection.
When the U. S. wants to attack
Canada or British Columbia she will
do it by land. These preparations
are for defence against attack by
sea. And only China, Russia, or
Japan, are likely to do that. The
U. S. may rest assured that England
does not expect her as an enemy,
and even has hopes of ultimately
converting her to an eternal alliance
of friendship.

THE CAR SEARcHER.

Not Many valuables Lost on Trains Con-
sidering the Amount Of Travel.
At the terminal stations Of all railroads
the cars Of incoming trains are searched
for things loft by passengers. The meth
DDS may vary in detail, but they are sub
stantially alike. ..-
At the Pennsylvania station in Jersey
City there are three searchers, two W orking
by day and one ut night OF the day men,
ono searches the through trains and the
other the way trains. The moment the
train has halted in the station the saarcher
steps aboard the rear platform Of the last
car and works toward the front. He
walks straight ahead, following tho reced-
ing wave of passengers, but though no
walks right along nothing escapes his prac-
ticed eye. Whatever he finds he takes to
the bureau of information. There record
is made Of the thing found, containing a
description Of 1t, the marks, II any, and
the train upon which 1t was found Things
of little value are kept awaiting the own
er's claim for six months. Things of con-
siderable value are kept a year or more
Things finally unclaimed are given back
to the searchcr, who is, however, called up
on to make them good should they DO
CIalmeu subsequently,
While In the course of O year many
things are found in the cars their number
compared with the great number of trav-
elers Is small, and as matter Of fact they
are generally of small value, usually UNI
brellas, overshoes and packages of one sort
or another. People seem generally to hang
on to really valuable things. At the same
time there are found In the cars OCCASION
ally watches diamonds, pockctbooks (usu-
ally containing small amounts) musical
Instruments and personal property Of al
most every possible description.
Valuable things are usually claimed
pretty promptly. The loser sometimes
goes from the train to a steamer for Eu-
rope or on longer journey. Various cir
cumstances sometimes prevent the prompt
claiming Of valuables. Claims are some
times made after the lapse Of months or
perhaps year or more. Persons claim
Ing property arc required to describe 1t,
with Its marks, and to tell upon whit
train they lost 1t. When property remain
Ing unclaimed has about 1t evidences of
Its ownership, the company endeavors to
restore 1t to its owner.
With the great increase of travel there
is an increase In the number Of tho things
found In the cars, but proportionatcly tho
number OF things so found is not greater
than formerly. In this respect the people
do not appear to have undergone any
change They are just about as forgotful
as they were-no more, no less.-Nsw
