DREYFUS VERDICT--GUILTY.

The verdict Of "gu'lty" in the
Dreyfus case has created a perfect
avalanche OF denunciation from al
most every quarter Of the globe, and
the judges are receiving we'll deserved
sensure. No such prostitution Of
justice has been witnessed in any
civilized country in modern times
We think the boycott idea fitting
denunciation. And all countries
should join in stamping the seal Of
condemnation on the verdict by with
drawing all exhibits from the Paris
Exposition and refusing to attend
Papers Of all Nationalities are fallin.
in with the idea, and movement is
on foot to introduce n bill in Congress
for the United States to Withdraw.
OF course we can only judge by the
press reports, but if the evidence at
the trial was correctly reported, any
set Of judges who would hear such
evidence. and then vote for conviction,
we say they ought to be taken to
DEVILS Isle, chained together and sent
to Davey Jones Locker with heavy
charge Of dynamite behind them, TO
hurry them on. Such set Of cow
ards are disgrace TO their country.
France instead Of Dreyfns is now
standing at the Judgment bar. She
is on trial and the evidence is over
VIII elmingly against her.

No more beer privileges. All such
privileges will be revoked on Nov. 1st
and thereafter beer will have
to be bought from the regular
dispensaries. This is good move,
ns the dispensary does not furnish n
lettering place for either beer or whis-
key drinking and those who buy it
have to take it home or elsewhere to
drink it. II we are to have the dis
penIary let it manage the whole bus
mess. We see very little difference
between the beer privilege system
and the open bar rooms of former
days, 30 far as beer drinking is con-
cerned.
We are satisfied the disponsary sys-
tenn OF handling liquor is the best
ever introduced and if the people are
ever to derive much benefit from the
profits the expenses should be cut
down to basis OF other mercantile es-
Establishments.

\ Few Facts About Mauna kea.
1925 Feet Above HiIo.
(Hawaii HeraId.)


In climbing Mauna Kea. which is
1926 feet in hight, the mamame trees
are not seen above an elevation OF
10000 feet, and the raillardia, the only
remaining form. OF vegetation, disap-
pears at 1900 feet There are few
plants, however, which grow around the
shores Of Waiau lake, at an elevation
of 1900 feet, but on no other portion
of the mountain above II, 500 feet.
On the edge OF the plateau are several
pyramids of stone, which were erected
to commemorate the visit of Queen
Emma, and at an elevation of $4,000
feet is Keanakakoi, the famous quarry
Opened by the natives many centuries
ago for the manufacture of battle
axes.
At an elevation of nearly $4,000 feet
there is a burying ground, where an
cient chiefs were laid to rest.
The trade winds blow on the summit,
although the anti-trades have been sup
posed by some to appear much below

Ice forms every night on Lake Walau.
Spiders, butterflies and flies are
found on the summit, though there Is
apparently nothing to support life
1t is not considered safe to make

so hard that if shoe is lost the horse
