or leased Government land under the
Island law and before transfers were
inhibited are not going TO be treated
unjustly.
This whole middle might have been
avoided II the local Government had
sent special agents 10 Washington ian
mediately after the passage OF the An
nexation bill and kept them there. OF
course 1t could not be foreseen that
there would be trouble and we do not
in any way arraign the Government for
neglect. The point we make Is that the
premature and undigested land order
justified the local authorities in send
ing General Hartwell or any other
well-informed Hawaiian citizen to
Washington and that 1t prompts regret
that the danger did not give warning
early enough to enable them to antici-
pate 1t by having man on the ground
in time. As 1t is, the presence of Cen
eral Hartwell at Washington has al
ready done good and we may safely
leave to him and to his unofficial con-
frere, Hon. W. o. Smith, the task OF
keeping the Administration in touch
with the real conditions in Hawaii. II
can hardly be wondered that the Pres
ident and Secretary Of State are some
times deceived about our local matters
when man like Senator Cullom, who
has been in these Islands, could go so
far and SO easily astray.

Search is being made in Paris for the
burial place and body Of John Paul
Jones, the first American naval hero
Scotchman by birth, Yankee by adop-
ton. sailor who made the Stars and.
Stripes respected, a Chevalier Of France
and an Admiral Of the Russian Navy
That such a man should have been
buried in obscurity and his sepulcher
forgotten was due to the excitement
of the French Revolution in the course
OF which he died. A trace Of Jones
resting place has been found under n
half-ruined building and II the bones
are discovered and identified they will
probably be removed to the United
States and inferred with fitting honors.

ELRCrROLYZ-D SALT WATER

The occasional discussion here OF
electrolyzed sea water as disinfectant
gives interest 20 the accompanying
statements Of the Army and Navy
Journal touching the use Of that cheap
remedial agency for some OF the ills
Of city life in warm countries. The
Army and Navy Journal states that ex-
periments in Havana after the author
tiles had ceased dependence on broom
and bucket proved the value Of the pro-
cess. Major J. G.. Davis. chief of the
Sanitary Division Of Havana was en-
powered to make tests with a small
plant with daily capacity of 10000
gallons. He was altogether successful.
In the judgment Of the authorities the
low death rate of Havana the past
summer was the result Of the free use
of the electrolyzed fluid. THE sewers
and unpaved portions of Havana were
treated with the purifying agent"
says the Journal. "the strength Of
which Is 80 grains of available chlorine
to the gallon. The prediction is a safe
one that the difficulty of overcoming
the unsanitary condition Of tropical
cities will be lessened by more than
half by the use of electrolyzed sea or
salt water obtained with the aid of
a small dynamo run by steam or water
power" . tr
The subject thus presented has al
ready been studied by our Board of
Health but it would seem to he desir-
able for the Government to get full
reports from Havana and file them for
future reference, II We have an ocean
Of disinfectants at our doors 1t is well
to learn and to keep in mind the best
methods OF making quick use of 1t and
to provide all needful appliances.

AS TO THE BOERS.

Doubtless a large proportion Of the
American people are in sympathy with
the Beers In the present war. There
is something inspiring in the stand
these hardy Dutchmen are making on
their native veldt; something that
savors OF greed and chicane in the
efforts of the British Government to
seize their country. But after all this
view is the sentimental one. The real
point to be considered is what Is best
for the future of South Africa and of
civilization as a whole. II an omelet
a. to be made some eggs must be
broken and they must of necessity be
good eggs. II civilization is to have
4 unified and perfect sway some hard
ships must be visited upon those who,
though brave and not without good
grounds for an appeal to the conscience
and sympathy of men, stand insistently
in the way.
There were Beers in America once
They held Manhattan Island. Long
Island end the richer part Of the pres
ent State of New York. They DOM
mated the greatest commercial harbor
of North America and controlled the
Hudson river from its source to its
mouth. Their pioneers penetrated the
region OF the great lakes and peered
across the border into Canada. Honest
and religious though they were they
wanted to keep their New amsterdam
out OF the current of the worlds affairs
They craved isolation and resented the
Intrusion of a buzzing commerce.
Suppose that sentiment had permitted
| them to keep the ground their cour-
age had won and their toll had fructi-
fed? Suppose the Boer flag foated
over the Empire State today? Would
not the United States be weak at a
vital point? Would not the peril of
war and the friction Of opposing tariffs
stand in the way of the full realization
OF American progress and opportunity
Would not humanity have n poorer
show to get ahead?
We view the case of the Beers in
South Africa in the light of this exam
pie. Like their kindred In North
America they are in the way of a
united and progressive Commonwealth.
British rule from the Cape to the Fam

States of South Africa, strong, pop

torch into the abysms OF the Dark Con-
tinent. 1t is best for Africa and best
for the world that anything which rears
itself as an obstacle to such a con-
summation should be swept aside. The
Beers are the obstacle and therefore
they must go.
Happily 1t will be for their good and
their descendants will not regret the
catastrophe. A hundred years from
now South Africa, bound in perfect
union and under one flag should find
in It's young Croujes and Jouberts men
like our own Roosevelts and Schuylers,
component parts OF nation where
Dutch and English strains have merged
into one noble and invincible type.
