THE CARS CoRoNATIoN.

To lift up ones voice against the ex-
travagance of the Cars coronation is
OF truth OF little avail The thing is
done, the money spent, and the country
of Russia is the poorer. But it does GO
against the republican grain TO see SC
much made of an empty show. The
Government of Russia is probably the
worst of any in Europe, save that OF
Turkey. The officials are corrupt, brib-
cry is rampant, true liberty is unknown.
For differing politically with the re-
gime, men and women languish in ST.
IBERIA without a hope of ever seeing
home or friends or the decent ameni-
ties OF life again. One has only to read
Remnants letters in the American press
to know what sort of place Russia is.
The Russian is barbaric with a thin
veneer of civilization over him. Talley-
rand was a man of keen insight when
he got off his celebrated saying, Graf
tare." 1t is the truth about the Russian
in a nut shell. Vain ostentation, viru-
lent religious bigotry, an intense
haughtiness on the part of the mobiles
and a slavish subservience on the part
of the bulk of the peasantry and lower
class is what is there. There is no
middle class in Russia. When men and
women have grasped Western ideas
and tried to raise up their fellow men
it has only resulted in their being
hailed away to a fate worse than death
And this system the world is now gap
ing at as at raree show. The tinsel and
glitter of monarchic pomp is reported at
full length in every republican publica-
ton throughout the length and breadth
of the States.
w w hen one considers the political con-
ditior of Russia, one is ashamed that
the world can be so easily fooled by the
tinsel. There is nothing to admire
about the Russian Government, and
this coronation of the Gar Is only the
apotheosis of one man power over mil
lions of little better than slaves. The
day will come when all this will come
to an end-for the good of humanity it
should come soon.

In Australia they have a whale
cure for rheumatism which is
said to be effective, though disa
greeable. 1t was discovered by
a drunken man, who was stagger-
ing along the beach near the
whaling station at Twofold bay,
and who, seeing a dead whale cut
open, took a header into the de,
composing blubber. 1t took two
hours for him to work his way
out, but he was then not only Sc
Der but cured of his rheumatism
Now Il hotel has been built in the
neighbOring town of Eden, where
rheumatic patients wait for the
arrival of a whale in order to take
blubber baths.

be more light on the subject, and then

draw such a bill as will meet the re-
quirements in every district. Further

If there is one man on the face OF the
earth who ought to receive the atten-
ton of Hawaiian officials it is y. b.
Breckenridge. He is beginning TO play
trump cards in his confidence game,
and is coming money at the expense of
people who might send their money
here for investments that would render
good returns and give the wherewithal
to develop the country as it should be.
These are solid men that Breckenridge
is tampering with, and no one knows
how many more may have been duped
ere this writing. Breckenridge is a man
easily spotted if the police officials were
once put on his track, and the sooner
the Hawaiian Government takes steps
to- put him behind bars the better it
will be for the country and the Ameri-
cans who may have spare money TO in
vest here.

WIDE TIRE BILL.
larkS.

4 If the discussion on the wide tire bill
has brought out anything it has proved
concIusively that the subject mas not
been properly Investigated to make
radical move at this time There can
he no doubt that the wide Ore theory Is
a good one: there can be. no doubt that
every vehicle should be road maker
and not a road destroyer, as is too often
the case at the present time. But both
the report of the Commission, the bill
that has passed the Senate and the dis
cussion of the bill have shown palpaole
weakness in adapting the wide tire
theory TO the various conditions pre-
scented in the different Islands
II is a good thing to know what has
been done in France, in New YORK
state in Missouri and thousand ana
one other places. These facts form a
bos;s for the theory Over and above
all this there should be careful study
of how far these theories should De ap-
DIied in the various districts OF HaWall
nei.
Neither the Commission nor the Leg
is,ature have obtained the practical
facts as applied to Hawaii, so as 10
have the matter at their fingers enus,
And no legislation should be attempted
until this information is at hand and
men know exactly what they are talk
;nng about. The Commission shouid
have reported early in the session Fhe
wide tire bill should have been present
cd before the law makers were just
obout to clear their desks and go home
In fact there are many should-have-
baens that leave no doubt that the wide
tire measure should be again referred
~ a commission for further inVestiga-
ton.
The data from abroad has served a
oood purpose. Now let some Commits
s;on find out something about the con-
ditions at home. Let the Commission
