but the facts of the living present
that touch their minds, and warp the
courses of their lives.
Mr.. T. H. Davies, in some excellent
remarks to the students adviced them
to fit themselves for positions of use
fitness, and become persons whose
opinions would be worth hearing"
And yet, taking living examples from
the persons on the platform, if an ag-
gravating student had risen up and
asked Mr. Davies: what is your opin-
ion about a Monarchy" no doubt
his brethren on the platform would
have replied in whisper: ITS not
worth a sou marquee" And if another
aggravating student had risen and ask
ed DR.. Bishop the same question, Mr..
Davies would have whispered: Sin
cere, but utterly wrong" So the stud
ents are at once confronted with the
practical difficulty, as to how they
may become persons whose opinions
would be worth hearing" The question
would be natural enough, as the
State must reflect the moral and in
telligent condition of the people, and
morals and politics cannot be separat-
ed. Under such circumstances, stud
ents would naturally feel that there is
a screw loose somewhere.
Earnest and valuable as the exer-
cises were, it is always well to remem-

RACE HABITS IN SOUTH AFRICA.

1t is simply foolish to ignore
the race question, in these Isl
ands. 1t exists and must be
met wisely or unwisely. The
TeutOnic races have confronted
it everywhere in the extension
of their dominion. 1t will be-
come a more troublesome ques-
ton here, in the future. After
the Hawaiian race habits are
dealt with, the race habits of
the Portuguese, the japanese
and the Chinese must also be
dealt with. The best prepare
ton for doing so intelligently,
is to get adequate ideas of the
strength and nature of their
racial habits. They may be
dormant, as our 'tempers" are
dormant, but trivial accidents
will instantly bring them into
play.
Professor Bryce's valuable
book on South Africa has lust
been published. A condensed
statement on the racial point
by an able reviewer of the
books, is as follows:

ruled the fortunes and shaped the de-

on the Coast.
The narrow guage ferry boat Bay
City bumped into the stern of the
barkentine Mary Winkelman at San
Francisco and so damaged that vessel
that her departure was delayed for sew
eral days. The accident happened
about 1925 o'clock in the morning and
was due to the thick fog and swift
running tide The fog was so heavy
that Captain Bradley could scarcely
see the length of his boat He came in
too close and the Bay City was drifted
by the tide, not into the narrow guage
slip as her captain intended, but to the
southwark of where the Mary Wrinkle
man was lying moored to Mission
street wharf The Bay City swung
against the barkentine, carrying away
part of her rail and straining badly the
timbers in her stern. The Bay City, be-
yond losing a little paint, was unin-
jured. Nobody was hurt and the ae-
cident did not delay the landing of the
ferry boats passengers more than few
moments.

LEASEH0LD LANDS.

Mr.. Allen Herbert stated in
an interview published in this
paper, several weeks ago, that
it was now difficult to secure
small farms, in desirable loca-
lions, on these Islands, owing
to the ownership of long leases,
which covered valuable tracts,
and the ownership in fee Of
large tracts, by few people.
This sort of ownership of
land and leases, has confronted
all of the Anglo-SaXon colon
lists for 200 years. They have
met the difficulty in every case,
by taxation, or by radical laws.
Many of the Atlantic States,
Canada, California and Austria
liza, were "infested" by these
unfortunate holdings, which
were good and fair enough, in
the days of sparsely settled
communities, but became a
blasting wind over agricultural
thrift in thickly settled COM
munities. In New York State,
for some years, the political
parties were divided on the
rent question. Those who rent
ed from the old Dutch proprie-
tors rose even in insurrectiOn
against payment of rent. They
were known as the Barn burn
ers, and elected a governor.
The State finally converted
these leaseholds into fee sim
pies.
The progressive people of
New Zealand dispose of the
subject in a simple way. The
owner of unimproved land is
required to put his own valua-
ton upon it, for purposes of
taxation. The State then has
the power to take it from him,
by adding 10 per cent. to the
amount of his valuation. 1t is
a cunning and perhaps reason
able way of preventing the
owner from undertaking. his
land. At the same time it is a
radical measure.
The Anglo-Saxon race be-
lieves in the "sOil." 1t is very
apparent that all intelligent
communities Of this race will
hold these political and ecomo-
micmaXims; thatif a man wish
es to till the soil, he shall not
fail to do so, for want of land;
that the absorption of land for
speculative purposes is almost
in the nature of a social crime;
that there shall be no artificial
restrictions against the free
movement of population from
the cities to the rural districts;
that men, women and children
shall have some breathing
spot on earth if they desire it.
This is the gospel Of American

The statement in one of our evening
contemporaries on Saturday regarding
the great and undeveloped resources of
MOlokai, Lanai and other spots, in the
way of sugar production, will naturally
please the beet sugar people who are
fighting annexation ON the ground that
the sugar product of the Islands will
increase and threaten with severe COM
petition the beet sugar interest. The
friends of annexation have on the 9TH
er hand, steadily maintained for many
years that the sugar area is limited.
Their dInerenees from the opinion of
their local organ, suggests the advice
of the Court, when two lawyers en-
gagged on the same side of a cause,
make conflicting statements: Gentle
men, before you go further with this
case, l advise you to retire and con-
suit, and some to some agreemtn, so
that you do not get between each
others legs in open Court"
Without regard to the merits or the
facts in controversy, it is generally
prudent for those who profess to be
leaders on one side of it, to manage to
stand together in their presentation of
the case.

velopment of South Africa have been
the qualities and relations of the races
that inhabit it, and the character OF
| the Government which has sought
from afar to control the relations of
those races. English statesmen have
been long wont to say that of all the
colonies of Great Britain none has
given the mother country so much dis
quiet and anxiety as has South Africa,
Mr. Bryce finds the reason in the cir
cumstanee that South Africa has had
two sets of race questions TO deal with:
questions between the white and the
aborigines. questions between the
Dutch and the English. 1t is this lat
ter set of questions that have consti-
an annals. Why have they proved so
troublesome, and why are they so
troublesome today? Because, the
author answers, they involve senti-
ment, and thus, like questions of reli-
gion, touch the deepest spring of emo
ton. Race questions, moreover, spring
from or are involved with incompati-
bilities or character which prevent
either stock from fully understanding
and, therefore, fully trusting the men
of the other. Suspicion, if not positive
aversion, makes it difficult for men
to work together, even where the poll
teal arrangements that govern their
divisions are just and fair to both.
1t is not for us to seek or
create racial difficulties here.
They exist. We must, however,
be prepared to meet them, in
diligently, wisely. Our great
est enemy in doing so will be
the strength and passion of our
own racial instincts, which
may lead us into conflicts,
which only moderation and
wisdom can avoid. The |
probabilities are that either
with or without annexation,
these racial differences will
trash themselves out, in
many curious shapes.
The discussion of racial diff
ferences should not create hos
tile feelings. On the contrary,
a full understanding of this
subject should strongly tend to
allay any anger of the domin-
ant race, whenever the native
or other races manifest these
racial habits. If the dominant
race becomes clearly conscious
of the fact that it is itself pow
governed by these ma
tional habits, it will make a
most just and liberal allowance
for the same, and often unrea-
sOnable, habits in other races.
A full understanding of the
question is in the interests of
peace and good will.

C. P. HUNTINGTONs WORK.

About eighteen years ago, c. P.
Huntington fixed his eye upon spot
| called Newport News, at the mouth
of the James River, and Hampton
Roads, in the State of Virginia. But
one house stood on the ground. Before
it lay the finest and largest harbor
on the Atlantic coast of the United
States. The water at the edge of the
banks was over thirty feet deep for
miles.
Those who have studied the econo-
mic development of the American
States. believe that il the uneconomic
system of slavery had not existed in
the South. the empire city of America
would have appeared at Newport
News, and not on Manhattan Island,
because it is nearer to the vast basin
of the Mississippi than New York, and
it's harbor bar is deeper than that of
New York, and it is equi-distant
from Maine and the Gulf ports.
Mr.. Huntington made this spot the
terminus of the Chesapeake and Ohio
railway. In spite of most depressing
times, and financial panics, he stead
lily pushed the work of connecting
this spot with the grainfields of the
West. He built there the best equip
ped dock and ship yard in America.
When the older masters of ship yards
snubbed him as an amateur and in
terloper he dropped the price for war
ships below the cost of building and
brought them TO terms.
The inhabitants now number over
$4,000. There are 5000 men in the
yards. The value of the exports of the
place for the year 1897, was $4,000, 900.
Seven hundred car loads of freight are
handled every day of the year. Six
hundred vessels loaded at the port dur
ing the year 1897. In the amount of
its shipping, and the value of its ex-
ports, it nearly reaches Baltimore's
shipping and exports.
In all of this development, nothing |
has been forced. 1t is the creation of
the geographical situation, backed by
almost prodigal harbor facilities.
Only an arrows flight from the main |
pier, is the spot where the ironclad |
Merrimac struck and sunk the Con-
gress and Cumberland. Captain John |
Smith camped ON the spot on his way |
to jamestown, in 1910. Washington |
passed it, as he went out in his boat |
to meet the French Count de Grasse,
and arrange for the capture of York |
town. Eight miles away is the largest |
fortress in America covering thirty |
acres, Fortress Munroe. Between |
them are the most extensive oyster |
beds of the Chesapeake bay. Five |
miles away is the largest institution |
in America for the education of ne
groes, established by one Hawaiian |
born. Fifty miles above this spot, on |
the broad James river, superb estates
lie desolate yet, and the value of ex-
hausted land is perhaps less than it
was nearly 300 years ago.
Slavery crippled, with its bad econo-
my, the resources of the Southern en-
pire. Slavery is dead, and the centres
of trade naturally shift to their nat
ural positions.
In this evolution, one man, Mr.. Hun
tington, a Connecticut boy, an iron
merchant in Sacramento, one of the
daring builders of railway across
the Sierras in 1866, stands as the
head, with a wonderful organizing
brain.
