Perhaps you like "the cup that cheers
Perhaps you gamble reckiessly;
Perchance you're libellous in tone;
Perhaps you're prone TO sigh and

Perhaps you're temper's very bad;
You talk enough to drive folks mad:
You think that no one else is right;
You flirt with everything in sight:
You have an overbearing way,
Or tell your symptoms" night and

Perhaps YOU dye the hair that's gray:

1t was a dreadful fate which overlook
young George Ryan. He was unfortu-
nately of a criminal turn. Before he
came here he had been in prison in Cal
ifornia. Here he took an opportunity to
steal the diamonds from the pinchbeck
crown of our departed royalty. For this
he served a sentence in part. In Ma
Mia he assumed the disguise of a SOL
der, and probably had some design of
getting money by nefarious means. His
end came upon him swiftly and uneX-
pectedly, no one will ever know how 1t
came but it came in peculiarly cruel
form. A wasted life, and cut off before
there was any opportunity for repent
ance. The tragedy must come home to
us. Perhaps, with proper guidance this
man might have been led to better
things, did he miss that guidance here
1t is a thing that many a one might
ask of his conscience.

West. 1t is an impressive thought. 1t

suit will come about, a fight in which
the public will have to pay the piper.
If the first company had started and
was not giving satisfaction, there might
be reason for putting another line into
the field. But there is no such cause.
The establishment of the second conf
pany is so palpably an effort to nip"
the first company, that it does not seem
possible to imagine that it will get its
franchise If the second company wish
for a field for enterprise, there is a good
one on Kauai There will be no opposi-
ton line there, the place is open to eN-
terprise and needs development.
The general view of the public is dead
against the granting of this second
charter, and the view of the public is
necessary one to consider. Governing
bodies are too apt to give away fran
chises. When one considers that what
they give is going to tie the territory up
for fifty years ahead, they should be
very satisfied about the wisdom of their
act before they make the grant. The
individuals that grant a franchise IN
nine cases out of ten do not live to see
the ultimate end of their work. They
are drawing a bill upon posterity, which
posterity must honor whether it will or
no.
This is the first case where we have
had corporations commencing fight

don't know what may be in the egg, but
large majority of people think that
whatever is Matched out is not likely
to be of any advantage to the general
public. The power is in the hands or
the Cabinet, but, being so absolute, the
Cabinet should devote the very great
est care to seeing that no wrong is done
to the company first in the field at pres
ent. and that no harm comes to the
budding community in it's mature flu
! ture.
