close Of the French revolution governed
the diet at Frankfort, which was some
what like weak congress in the United
States.
In short, throughout Germany, until
Bismarck reformed it, there was some
thing like states rights, with diet or
congress at Frankfort, in which Austria
and Prussia were the two great rivals,
TO be compared TO Virginia and New
York in the story of the United States.
1t may also be explained that Ger
many was peculiar among the nations OF
Europe after the conquest of the Roman
empire by the Germans whose different
tribes and leaders formed nearly every
kingdom in Europe France pulled away
from the empire of Charlemagne and left
Germany to become the representative Of
the old Roman empire. The German EN-.
perors were also called kings of Rome
and after being elected in peculiar way
generally went to Rome at their convent
ence to be crowned by the pope.
Thus mixed military and spiritual
empire existed north Of the Alps until
the time of Luther, when the minor
princes, feeling tho popular inspiration
against so much Italian interference in
Germany, went into revolt. Prussia
was the especial country of Luther and

Yet Sincere in Character

and was overrun by him in one brief
campaign. He imposed upon her con-
ditions Of the hardest character. Her
western provinces were absorbed in one
of his experimental kingdoms, and her
army was compelled to be kept at low
standard. Two remarkable men, Stein
and Scharnhorst, undertook to keep these
conditions and yet raise Prussia to her
former military rank. They therefore
compelled the whole population to be a
certain period under arms, and this was
the commencement of the great military
system of Prussia, and Bismarck's first
prominence in politics was in contending
against the taxpayers who would not
allow the army to be kept up to an ex-
travagant standard at their expense,
while he meditated recreating Germany
by driving Austria out Of it and consoli-
dating the smaller states, which after the

afterward, broke out the revolution in
Paris. In the meantime he had married
and met his sovereign, who now knew his
well published name.
He had a good while been dixie mas

He saw the streets of Berlin carrying
the Polish and every flag but the Prrs-
sian flag. April 2, the day of his thirty
third birthday, he again took his seat in
the united diet.
He began to form antidemocratic
clubs and found newspapers and gave
forth the motto, with God for king
and our fatherland."
He gave the lie to deputy who said
that he paid his land laborers only $40
wear.

this is clearly q ease where q road
might have been saved by keeping IT
in repair, but which, by neglect has
gone 10 ruin.
The same is true of the roads in the
lIilo district. From the reports sent
down il seems as If a considerable
portion of the new road has not stood
the heavy rain storms of the winter.
Of course there should be inquiry into
the reason of this. II may be the fault
of the contractors and it may be that
the fault lies with the engineer who
laid them out. The writer remembers
the road as far as the Onomen gulch,
couple of years or so ago, and that
was a well constructed piece of road,
with solid road bed calculated to with
stand even the Hilo rains. But TO pre-
serve it, it should have had constant
work done up it; whether such work
has been done, or whether it has been
neglected is n matter which is not
stated in the many complaints.
Since the roads are the arteries OF
the country, and the opening up of
new lands for settlement depends up
on the roads, the question will have
great attention from all the members
of both Senate and House. Each
country member knows the needs of
/ his own district, and there are few of
| the city members who are unacquafnt-
ed with the needs of the outer dis
tricts. for there is now so much NOV
ing back and forth that most Honolu-
| lu men are acquainted with the major
portion of the important Islands.
! But whatever each individual may
bring forward it will be far better
| for the Minister of the Interior to pro-
pose some comprehensive plan both
| for the laying out of new roads and
/ the keeping in repair the old. Taking
! the motto of a stitch in time saves
nine, few men constantly going over
the roads, section by section, Will in
the end save money to the community
and do really more good than the spas
modic work which road board after
road board rushes into.
In the matter of good roads every
one. rich or poor, is interested, and as
fact the poor agriculturalist more
than any one else. Roads should bt
literally provided for.

ROADS.

1t is to be hoped that the Minister
of the Interior has laid out a compre-
hensive scheme for the roads of this
country for the next biennial period.
Much good work has been done in
the past, but much remains to be done
in the future. Besides the price paid
for good roads is constantly keeping
them in repair. Unless a road is well
looked after, what with the heavy
rains and the broiling sun the roads
soon get out of repair, and then the
destruction of the road is not far Off
Take the road up Nuuanu for in
stance. Some few years ago it was
put in thorough repair, with the OBJ
ject of having it good driveway to
the Pail, but there came a period of
neglect, and now the condition of the
Nuuanu Valley road above the ceme-
terry is such that the work done before
will have to be practically done over
again. This is decidedly one of the
roads that needs repair and attention.
Down the Pail the road is described
as fine, but the road up to it, and af-
ter you leave it, is abominable. Now
