1t is true that no resemblance can
be found in the United States to China, but
it is still wise to study the entire subject.
The invasion of China by Japan shows how
a nation of immense population and great
resources may be badgered and conquered
by power inferior in both of these respects,
but superior in organization. both financially
and physically. Spain possesses consider
able navy, and army twenty thirty
times as large ours. We cannot hope to
land troops on Spanish territory until we get
an army of adequate strength and efficiency,
and, of course, the beginning of the warfare
would be on the sea.
l, is not beyond possibility that Spanish
warships might attack some Of our coast
cities. During the Civil War the North
was never seriously invaded, and the horrors
of war were never brought directly before
the senses of the victorious section, and yet
at various periods during the war the cries
for peace at any price were very loud, and
there was at times danger that those opposed
10 the war would gain the ascendancy. If
the South had possessed powerful navy,
or the means of building or acquiring one;
as. if her belligcrent rights had been fully
recognized she might have done; successful
attacks on Northern seaports might easily
have altered the whole sentiment of the
country. Many still recollect the terror
spread through the cities of the East by the
ephemcral success of the Merrinac, Vir-
gnia, the first iron-ciad ship ever used in
war. There are modern guns that will cna-
bic warships to throw shot into towns and
cities miles away, and such guns are pos
sessed by the Spaniards we'll ourselves.
All the matters mentioned are to be con-
sidcred, and, in the face of the existing con-

1900 AT A FEAST
Dinner to Men of the Peru
and City of Puebla.
They We're More Than Satisfied,
Had Music All Arrangements
Wen Carried Out-OuIet.

AT noon yesterday the American sol
dlers in port were received on the
grounds Of the Executive building.
They marched up from the ships at u
o'clock and most of them remained on
the grounds until 3 The Hawaiian
band played during the feast.
In some respects the picnic was bet
ter than those given to former - pedi
ton. A happy novelty was the intro
duction of salads, lettuce etc, some
thing the Boys in P'.e had not had
since leaving S-~n~ Francisco. In some
cases they were more appreciated than
the pastry and sweet meats. The
grounds were thronged with ladies and
every attention was shown the $500
men present.
Chairman Ashley and other mem
bers of the Commissary Committee
were constantly on the grounds. After
the tables were cleared the ladies en-
tertained the soldiers under the picnic
arbors. AT this time Uncle John"
Hassinger appeared with cigars for
the men. They were distributed all
around.
The officers were received during the
same hours at the Officers Club. There
an elaborate lunch was served. During
the afternoon General Otis was shown
through all the offices and rooms of
the Executive building.
When the men left the feast grounds
most Of them carried pineapples and
other fruits. These were taken aboard
ship to be used later. All of the men
were shown through the Government
buildings. They were piIoted by Ha-
waiian soldiers and the ladies.
On both the transports liberty was
given to p. m. Many men were off
for the night.
The Boys in Blue were loud in their
praises of the reception. They said it
was superior to that received at San
Francisco and far better than they had
expected Their stories Of hospitality
and small acts of kindness shown by
various people would fill a book.
The men now here, by the way, who
are all regulars, have shown most eX-
cellent department. A more quiet and
orderly set could not easily be found.
There was a time when the people of
Honolulu feared the regulars would
be hard to entertain. This idea has
been entirely dissipated, however, for,
to date. the regulars have taken the
banner from the volunteers, if possible,
in the matter of general department.
