The Italian Government, having real
lied the impractica bllity of raising from
the bottom of Lake Nemi, near Rome,
the two huge Ships which the Roman
Caesar Tiberius was wont to use as
floating palaces and which have been
lying submerged for nearly 2000 years,
is now considering a scheme recon-
mended by its archaeological and en-
gineering experts for the draining of
the lake in question until it's waters
shall have been lowered sufficiently to
bring the ships to the surface. 1t is
estimated that the cost of such an oper
alton as this would not exceed $4,000.

THE LOAN BILL.

The Minister of Finance refers,
in his report to the refunding bill,
passed by the last Legislature,
saws that it has not met with
the success which was hoped for.
Certain changes in the act will
have to be made at the coming
session of the Legislature, to en-
able it TO meet with the require
ments of foreign bOnd-hOlders."
The Legislature undertook to
legislate on matters of which 1T
knew little or nothing. Instead
of granting the Government 'lee
way" or some freedom to act in
negotiating the loan, it tied ii
up ON the theory, apparently, that
il could not be trusted, and the
consequence is that the loan has
been side tracked. 1t is the mis-
fortune of republican forms of
government that large bodies Of
inexperienced men constantly get
between the legs of the Executive
and trip it up. The men who
make laws ON financial matters
know nothing about national
finance, and, therefore, make Il
bad mess of il. Our Legislators
may say to us: "We do no worse
than the Legislators of other
countries" But this sort of AFRO
CANT humility is not pleasant
when we are in trouble.

SENATOR KYLE.

The Legislature of South Da-
kOta has reelected Senator Kyle
to the Senate of the United
States. The advices, by the pre-
yiOuS mails. were that cOmbina-
tiOn had been made to defeat him.
1t failed. however. He was elect
cd mainly by Republican votes.
Hawaii has no better friend in the
United States than Senator Kyle.
He was one of those Senators who
was willing to vote promptly for
annexation in 1893, and ON all
occasions has firmly supported
the policy of annexation and reel
prOcity. His career is remarka-
BILE. He has made his own pOliti-
cal future by sincere, honest work
and he stands as IA conspicuous
example of honest craftsmanship.
His six years experience in the
Senate Will enable him to work
to the best advantage during his
