You can make one cup of coffee as

THE BOYCOTT IN JAPAN

The British consul at Hiogo says
that boycotting has become an estab-
lished institution of Japan, owing 10
the trade guilds and the strictness
with which the members are ruled
The consul mentions two case of boy
cotting during the past year which
excited a good deal of discussion. One
was an agitation against Chinese mer-
chants in Japan to compel them to put
an end to the old custom of levying
commission and percentage from the
japanese. The combination against
the Chinese was a powerful one, and
consisted of many guilds, including
those of sugar, silk fabrics, iron and
copper, and marine products. In an
other case a leading British firm of
Yokohama imported to the order of =
prominent japanese merchant, who
is a director of an important bank, a
parcel of goods. When the latter ar
rived the japanese refused to take de-
livery, and the British importers ha7-
ing instituted legal proceedings in the
native courts, judgment was given
against the japanese, who was ord
cred to take delivery of the whole Of
the goods and to pay the plaintiffs the
cost and charges. Thereupon the guild
of which the defendant is a member
decided that the British importers and
plaintiffs should be boycotted if they
insisted on maintaining and enforcing
their judgment, and as the resident

The Seattle Post-Intelligencer is a
new and warm and welcome friend of
Hawaii. In suggesting a regulation
territorial government for the islands,
however, it advances a proposal that
must be somewhat modified. The Re
public must have a land system dis
tinctively its own and with features
or provisions especially favorable to
the native Hawaiians.

a False Alarm.
Daily Item. Feb. %

A false alarm of FIRE was given on Re.
publican street last night about 10 o'clock,
the alarm bell was rung and the reel squads
turned out before it was discovered that there
was no FIRE. The alarm was given by a
crowd of boys who were out on a seranade.
They started the alarm by firing pistols,
blowing whistles and yelling FIRE. The en.
tire west end of the town was alarmed and
considerable confusion created for sometime.
The boys who gave the alarm 90 doubt
thought they would have lot of fun by
calling out the FIRE department and arousing
the people who bad gone to bed, and counted
on escaping detection, but this morning Chief
of Police Bradford began an investigation
and soon had the names of the boys who gave
the alarm. He proceeded to arrest them as
rapidly as they could be found and required
them to give oond for their appearance at the
Mayors court.
The boys are guilty Of an outrage on the
the community, tboughtlessly, no doubt, but
an outrage nevertheless; and what makes
the matter worse. is that all of those who
were engaged in it are old enough to know
better, and should have had some conadera-
ton for the people they needlessly alarmed,
and the 6remen whom they put to a great
deal of trouble. They should be ashamed Of
themselves and regret that they did not ex-
ercise more judgment and consideration. If
they do not now :egret giving the alarm,
they will probably have cause to do so when
they have finished their interview with
Mayor Pierson.

At half-past nine O'Clock Moaday the
Court of General Sessions convened, with
Judge 0. w. Buchanan, presiding.
The Grand Jury was organized With Mt.
Henry &. Shaw, as foreman. The Judges
charge to the Grand Jury was brief clear and
forcibe, and was il substance as follows:
When no good can be done protection
should be frowned down, otherwise needless
expense is incurred aud bad feelings engen-
dere6.
An important matter called to the atten-
ton of The Grand Jury was tie fact that al!
their work should be kept from the outside
world, that unfortunately as general thing
the world had heard everything aud knew
the stand each member had taken cn any
question which came before them before the
matter came up in the Court House. Besides
the usual eject Of the juror
violating his oath, there is the prac-
tical result of a criminal hearing what the
Grand Jury has done and fleeing from the
State, thus putting the authorities to the ex
peuse of bringing him back. Such course
is fraugbt with trouble and is contrary TO
law.
Anonymous commp nications are sometimes
sent 20 the Grand jury. A man who has

could stand few miles of such road
making every year, and what are now
it's worst roads would soon be its best.
Some expect to see all surplus stones
crushed by machinery and used on the
roads, but, besides the cost, not one
quarter of the country highways will
ever have enough heavy traffic on them
to make good roads Of broken stones.
A strong argument in favor Of maxi
ing our own roads in our own way. and
at the least cost, Is that we may thus
have some good roads to use while we

state engineer, to instruct county
engineer to direct the town engineer to
have his subordinates survey and map
out their respective localities and send
the results to headquarters, in order
that somebody may, at some timeD tell
us how, If not when, we may have good
roads.
Perhaps people generally are looking
too far away, and too high up, for i'm
provement in roads. A town can do
any ordinary piece Of work for less ex-
pense that would be required for the
county to do the same. A supervisor
gets twice as much per day when the
county pays him as when his own town
is to foot the bills. Unless the state
should make roads more economically
than it does the capitol and other state
works, the less state roads the better for
all concerned, excepting, OF course,
those who would thereby he Piven easy
