THEIR own LAND
Something of the Country
of the Galicians.
Location 5 OIL Seasons Resources
People Are In CIasses-The
Peasants.

In view OF the recent importation OF
Galician laborers, and the difficulties
experienced with them on the planta-
tons, the following description Of
their native country, quoted verbatim
from Johnson's Universal Cyclopedia,
New York, Appleton a. Co, 1897, may
prove OF interest to many:
"Galicia, a province of Austria, con
sisting Of the old territories of Galicia,
Lodomeria, Auschwitz, Gator and Cra-
COW, and divided into two Government
al districts, Lemberg and Cracow. 1t
Is bounded ). by Hungary, from which
1t is separated by the Carpathians; T.
and y. by Russia and Poland, toward
which 1t has no natural boundaries,
except in some places where the
Dniester and the Vistula make the line
of demarkation. The surface is a ter
race, through which the Carpathian
mountains gradually sink into the
great East European plain. The soil
Is fertile, but the climate is cold-long
winters with deep snow and short, hot
summers. Grain, fax, hemp and hops
are grown, but the grape will not rip
en-. Fine horses and excellent. cattle
are rearer, and the forests are stocked
with deer and wolves. OF minerals,
iron and rock-salt abound; the latter
especially Is Of great importance.
There is class Of mobiles, who have
warlike passions, q romantic temper,
and elegant manners; and there Is a
peasantry. rude, filthy, ignorant and
Incorporate. but there is no middle
class, and there are no manufacturers
and no merchants, except the Jews,
who live in abject and miserable con-
ditions, despised and ill-treated both
by the peasantry and the nobility. In
this unfortunate structure of society
lay the possibility OF the division OF
Poland; and since Galicia lin l772)
came TO Austria 1t has made great ad-
yances In the track of modern civiliza-
ton. in spite of the rebellions which
have Conyulsed 1t, whose general char
acter has been the murder OF the no.
bility by the peasantry. The Ruthe-
mans are mostly Roman Catholics OF
Ruthenian rite; the Poles, Roman
Catholics Of the Latin rite; their num-
Der is about equal. Area, 80, 3O7 square
miles. Population, (lSS0) 595S 1907;
1S90) 6.jIS,364"
The character and material condi-
tons of these people are also described
In another work OF reference (Amerl-
can Encyclopaedia in part as follows:
The nobility are mostly of Polish
descent, viyacious, warlike and ardent
ly attached to their nationality: the
peasants are hardy, rude, sluggish and
slayish. . The Jews are hated
and despised although the peasantry
are largely dependent upon them.
Education, agriculture and industry
are backward; wealth Is rare and ey-

lie Wrote strongly Of Local Church
Contention.

The Rev John osborne, incumbent
OF st. Clements Chapel at Punahou,
while attending the Episcopal conven-
ton recently held in Washington, ad-
dressed the committee upon the causes
of the lamentable disssensiOns in the
Anglican Church Of Honolulu in
sledgehammer fashion. He lays a great
deal OF the blame at the door of the
Bishop A few passages from his let
ter as published by the American
press follow:
The law governing the conduct of
the clergy or laity has been the
Bishops own will, and there has been
no appeal from his decisions. The
Bishop controls both the synod and the
board OF trustees, through the power
of his controlling all church funds,
thereby making these bodies his crea-
lures"
The church in 1890 was almost un-
animous in its petition TO his lordship
to resign, stating as its reason for
such request, that neither peace, har-
mony nor church extension We're pos
sible under his rule, Clergymen have
been disgraced, publicly disgraced or
dismissed without warning or form of
trial, whilst as innocent as any man
attending this convention, and there
has been no appeal. Eldress Phoebe, OF
st. Andrews Priory, ON her death bed
refused the Bishop admission to her
chamber, pleading to be allowed to die
in peace. and the lives of the remain
ing sisters have been made burden
to them by reason of the Bishops ac-
tons.

In view of this, perhaps 1t
is not out OF place to mention
a few facts worth consider

1. The Alaska is con-
structed upon strictly scien-
tific principals. by which low
temperature and dryness of
air are naturally and newt
ably obtained.
?. The Alaska has pre-
served fresh meats perfectly
for three weeks in the hot

3. The Alaska produces
better results with less ice
than any other.
4. The Alaska possesses
the only provision chamber
free from odor.

inner walls there is an inch
and a half space filled with
pure charcoal, and experience
extending over three and a

The small boy will have his fun aud

cent ones, and not costly or damaging
to the property OF others. A poor
man cannot afford to lay new side
