To the American student this his
tory of Parliamentary government is
especially attractive, because II shows
that the Revolutionary War was not
due to any hatred by the British of
the American colonies, or any desire
to conquer them, but was due TO the
arbitrary power of the King, which, at
that time, could not be controlled by
Parliament.
II has been the practice for over !
hundred years for American teachers
and historians TO put the blame of
carrying on the Revolutionary War
upon the British nation, and three
generations have lived and died i'm
America, in ignorance of the truth.
II Is now left to American historians,
educated to better research, and with
impartial judgments, to show the
American people that they have been
misled, and have filled the national
reservoirs Of feeling with causeless
bitterness and hatred.
One of the most Interesting state
ments made by Mr. Taylor Is that the
makers Of our own great Constitution,
framing il al the time when the King
and not the Ministers ruled in Eng
land, gave the President large powers
and made the Cabinet merely his ser
wants. II was not until after the Con
stitution had been adopted that the
principle Of Parliamentary government
was established in England, and the
King was made only the nominal head
Of the government. Had this princi-
pie been established before the adop-
ton Of the CoEstitltion it Is probable
that our present system Of Executive
responsibility would have followed the
English precedent, and the President
would not have had the veto power,
and the Cabinet would have been a
the disposition of Congress

EXECUTlyE REsPONSlBIuITl,

MIR. Hannis Taylor, late Minister 10
Spain. in his valuable treatise on The
Origin and Growth OF the English Con
stitution. traces step by step the
gradual shifting Of power from the
Sovereign to the Parliament. and the
growth, by unwritten law, OF the re
sponsibility Of Ministers TO the House
of Commons instead OF the Throne.
This phase Of English political his
tory is especially interesting to those,
in these Islands, who once undertook
TO make the Kings of Hawaii respon-
sible TO the Legislature and the peo-
pie. This could not be accomplished
by changing the written law, because
the mass Of the people were indiffer-
ent 90 the source OF responsibility.
Those who undertook to make the
Hawaiian King responsible to the peo-
pie had not before them the history
Of gradual growth Of the principle of
Ministerial responsibility in England
to the Legislature and not to the
kins. A written law providing for
such responsibility would have had no
force in England, because the people
had TO be educated TO understand It's
necessity. The provision in the Ha-
waiian Constitution Of 81 was based
on a theory. but was without pOpu-
lar foundation that demanded it,
Mr.. Taylor in his valuable work eX-
plains how George III had assumed
che power of governing using his Min
listers as agents without responsibility.
and Parliament, divided by rival lead
ers. had permitted II. But the strong
English head was thinking over this
abolutism and suspected IT, Finally.
in his troubles, the King went to Pitt
for aid, and made him First Minister.
and In the course Of time Pitt took
from the King the responsibility Of
governing. and responsibility to Par
Lament was established.
This admirable account Of the
growth of Parliamentary power is es-
pecially interesting. because 1t shows
how impracticable the attempts were
10 establish parliamentary government
here, twelve years ago. Whoever shall
write the history of our little mon
archy will, If he studies the growth Of
this popular government in England, |
lie able to explain its failure in Hawaii !

President McCafferty of the Alabama Poultry and Pet Stock associat tion who was appointed superintendent of the poul- try department has issued the following an nouncement to the poultry, pigeon and pet stock fanciers of the state:
 "The Alabama Poultry, Pigeon and Pet Stock association have decided to hold their fifth annual exhibition in connection with the Alabama State fair. We want a large Alabama exhibit in this department 'tThe State Fair association offers liberal premiums, both cash and specials. For further information write to H. J.

Bathing shoes of any sort met with
little success in this country. Usually
they have been found so ugly. The
sandal with ribbons may fill a long
want unconsciously felt. if we come to
think of the bathing dress as one which
may be beautified. Up to this time the
study of the woman of refinement has
been not to please in her ocean gown,
simply not to offend.
I have my permanent doubts about the
success of the French bathing dress, which
is made in peasant fashion with white
cotton blouse and leaves the neck exposed.
Ones neck must be kept from sun
burns, so that her evening gowns may be
becoming However the effect of the low
neck is pretty, if one is bold or brave
enough to sit beneath a parasol on the
beach in such a costume.
French blue, or Yale blue. is a color as
much favored in Paris for gowns of all
sorts as in this country.

as I understand it, a matter of modesty.

You should say that it depended

And the spider his lace on the haystack

While a bare-footed reaper followed your

With his romping careless cry.
You are calling as sweetly to-day, Bob

Shed their rays o er two, on the coun-

Who never will roam hand in hard again,
While the whippoorwill sings through the

With a song like a yearning cry.
You are calling as sweetly to-day. Bob

While the final test of an American
womans good taste is thought to be
her conventional bathing gown, there
is no telling when this standard may
change. In our clothes for sports we
follow English rather than French
taste, which we have considered over
frank.
But number of the high-class deal
ers in bathing dresses in London now
are importing from Paris the most
chic of costumes, and should they be
adopted by any great ladies in Eng
land, of course we shall hear of them
later in the season-first at Narragan-
sett, then at Newport.
