The Oldest American Fort,
From the st. Louis Globe Democrat.


Standing, sentinel like, where the Sus
quehanna splits itself into the north and
south branches. is old Fort Augusta, ths
veteran fighting stronghold of the United
States. Placed beside a modern fort it
would look, IN size. like a dog alongside
OF an elephant. 1t is now the property of
Mr.. and Mrs. Isaac Gross of Sunbury, Pa,
and Is located in a field about 165 fact from
the river bank.
1t was built In 1856, after plans by Col.
Gordon, as a protection against the French
and hostile Indians, and was named after
the mother of George Ill In shape, 1t
terror Is curious and interesting. A small
mound OF earth marks the spot-with an
opening IN the ground two and one-half feet
VIDE. Twelve four.inch stone steps lead
below. On descending, the ground space
inside Is found to be 1Ox12 feet, and eight
feet from the floor to the apex of the arch
ed ceiling. The arch is brick and commences

are said to be Of English manufacture.
It's location at the forks of the Susuue-
mamma was a strong strategic advantage,
as 1t held the chief passage by waterway
from the north Of the state When COM
pleted. 1t was regarded as one of the larg-
est, strongest and most important of all
tne Iortincations erected on the frontiers
OF the provinces. Its original armament
consisted OF at least twelve cannon and
two swiveis. and one OF thsse cannon is
Sun In existence In Sunbury. It Is of Eng
lish make, Of about three and one-haIf-inch
bore and weighs nearly 1000 pounds.
Fort Augusta ranks next in Importance
to Valley Forge as a factor In the achieves

that some day public spirit will see that
steps are taken for it's preservation and q

equal amount of extra wharf room Will be
needed for the colliers to discharge their

large overflow of the business into the
neighboring Pearl harbor. The coaling OF
steamers in transit must be mainly at that
point.
One of the greatest necessities Of the
growing traffic will be, as now. the en-
forcement of proper sanitary and quaran-
tine regulations, without which Honolulu
and Pearl harbor would speedily become
pest houses. Our very capable board OF
health Is now vigorously enforcing the most
thorough and systematic precautions, both
here and through it's agents in Chinese and
japanese ports. In spite of these precau-
tions, smallpox has repeatedly been let
loose on shore, and cholera once, by trust
ing the lying surgeon Of a British steamer.
Bubonic plague Is zealously guarded
against. Whenever an isthmian canal Is
opened we shall have to look out for yellow
jack and Panama fever. No slack or cor
rupt government can meet this need, GER
tainly no government In which Polynesian
chiefs have any voice.
Furthermore, competent government must
be maintained for the well-being and de-
velopment OF the city of Honolulu and q
sister city at Pearl harbor. For the COM
merce centerfng here, well-conducted mu-
inequalities must be kept up. with good

AMERICAN INDUSTRY.
Our Wood Working Machines and
workmen Go All Over the World.

Our Wood Working Machines and
Workmen Go All Over the World.
From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
Time was when Europe made the furni-
ture required by newly civilized lands. Ar
tisans of the north were all for solid, SUBJ
stantial and somber work, often of rude
design and severely plain. Southern Eu-
rope gave the world lighter. more graceful
and less serviceable forms, which in France
reached the extreme Of lightness and of
ornamentation. AS all these were made by
crude machinery and by hand they were
necessarily costly when they were not rude
and unfinished. Nearly all forms OF furni-
ture were inconvenient or uncomfortable.
American machinery for working wood
developed rapidly, and now American ma
chimes turn out the most intricate and beau
tiful carvings, of a delicacy which cannot
be surpassed by the tool of the most pa
tient worker by hand, and with an economy
of time, labor and material that has lriven
hand work from the field in ths United
States and Is crowdins to the wall artisans
of many other lands. American goods COM
bine the qualities of the workmanship Of
northern lands with a grace equal to that
of the Mediterranean art, yet avoid the
clumsy ponderosity Of ths one as they do
the fragility and gaudiness Of the other.
One result is that American manufacturers
are not only sending furniture to South
America and to Central America, but also
to South Africa, to Australia and to the
far east
Nor do they stop with this. A New York
firm is now sending to Norway. to Sweden
and to Great Britain desks, cabinets, chairs
and other Office furniture. The desks are
made In New York state, the chairs in
Vermont. Their designs were SO superior
to those Of the old world that the demand
Tor them grew. until it was found profita-
Bile to send to London American lumber,
An, rSN
chanics to work them there, to supply the
European markets. Many merchant,
most transportation agents and not a few
government officials In foreign lands SIT In

The Present Government.

It is more than doubtful whether the
present excellent government can continue
permanently without strong foreign aid It
depends upon the support of the more In
telligent whites. The support of the other
racial elements IL unlikely. Demagogues
are frequently striving to appeal to popu-
lar suffrage in the name Of democracy, to
one created by sunrages of ignorant
natives or Portuguese. Such efforts may or
may not ultimately prevail No sense OF
permanent security can be felt. unless ft

Japan would no doubt cheerfully assume
the task of managing, Hawaiian afrairs

would permit any other power than the

Indispensable for the proper entertainment
Of her immense commerce at Honolulu, If
America declines the task Of insuring COM

The British government are not now
reaching out for Hawaii. They have no ex.
pectation Of doing So. They look on 1t as
a certainty that the United States will soon
accept the gift Of the islands They are
amazed and amused that any American
statesman should hesitate to accept 1t. Yet
the alternative stands assured, that II

What consequences must follow? For
one thing, at merely the present rate of in
crease, the year 1903 will see twenty-four
steamers a month calling at Honolulu, and
1905 will see thirty-three. BY the latter
year, your present painful awakening to
the necessities attendant on war may have
SO hastened the construction of the Nicara-
qua canal that it will then be opened. That
opening will at once end crowd of Allan
tic steamers across the Pacific. Those will
carry our steamer arrivals up to sixty a
month, averaging two day. And this will
go on increasing.
Those ships will be Of many nationalities
There will be some French and Danish
many German and Japanese, and a good
percentage probably of American. But there
can be little doubt that the majority of
those steamers Will continue to be- as they
are now, under the British flag. 1t, then,
goes without saying that England will have
tremendous interest in the port of Homo

Good Government u Necessity.

When the time comes, as it will in half a
dozen or so Of years, that from thirty to
forty large British steamers are calling
every month at Honolulu for coal and
have no choice but SO to CALL England will
be under the imperative necessity of taking
care that Honolulu is a well-governed port
If she sees this port in competent Ameri-
can hands. that will meet British necessi-
ties. If the United States have not taken
charge of Hawaii and undertaken the inn
portant responsibility of properly conduct
ing this great crossroads of Pacific COM
merce. then England will have no alterna-
tive but to take charge OF Hawaii herself
SO that the business of her ships shall be
properly conducted. Is it not evident that
failing an immediate American occ-,aat alton
of Hawaii an early British occupation will
become a commercial necessity. not to he
evaded or postponed?
Every American statesman should clear
ly see the point. Within the next very
few years. Honolulu is going to become
the permanent resort of an enormona
crowd of ocean steamers, chiefly British.
With them will be an equal crowd of collier
sSeps for their supply-fewer different
Ships but ten times as long in port To
handle and supply such a crowd, to meet
their urgent necessities. to protect them
from pestilence and insanitary conditions
will tax the best abilities of a strong and
capable government. 1t will be indispensa-
Bile to maintain such government here
There is no alternative. Immense CONNER
cial Necessities will demand it. Now. IL
America does not promptly proceed to in
sure such government, does any American
statesman imagine that England will fail
that Hawaii itself, Independent of outside
aid. cannot be relied Upon for competent
government, even though beneficent white
minority of the population are at present
managing to keep things in good shape
The Asiatic two-ffths of course cannot
be expected to contribute to this end And
