KITCHENER LEADS.

LONDON, Jan. 13.-It now leaks out
that Lord Kitchener is really the chief
in South Africa at the head of the Bril-
ish troops, and Lord Roberts a figure
head. 1t happened thus: The national
defense committee met and decided
that Lord Kitchener was the man for
the place. He was Lord Salisbury
nomination. The Premier had made a
study of Lord Kitchener on the occa-
sion Of the Sirdar's visit to Hatfield,
but endless difficulties were in the
way.
Two months ago told you the rumor
that Lord Kitchener would go out, and
tne herald and The Call were absolute
ly the FIRST papers to forecast the pos
slDility, which has now become fact.
The matter was then under discus
sion, but the trouble was that Lord
h.tchener was the junior of Generals
Butler, Warren and others.
But Lord Salisbury is never beaten
upon a technically, and his solution Of
the problem was to send Lord Roberts.

men by his presence as field marshal,
while Lord Kitchener being his aid,

superior in authority TO conduct the

JAPANESE PLAGUE ABATING.

The determination of the plague in
here. Bad as our Chinatown was be-
fore the fire 1t was never quite so full
of evil odors as the great port of the
Inland Sea. Outside the foreign set
Element of Kobe, which is clean and
beautiful, the population is huddled in
small houses, with open sewers run
ming by the stills, with the usual
wretched interior sanitation of the
Japanese coolie home and with plenty
of rubbish in all the courtyards. To
the casual foreign looker-on it would
seem as If pestilence, once grounded
in Kobe, could never be gotten out yet
the sanitary authorities there, after
campaign of a few weeks duration,
have made the city safe to live in.
If the case is somewhat less encour-
aging in Osaka It does not matter.
There, population larger than that
of San Francisco Is huddled on a
swampy plain where no drainage exists
and where the water drank comes from
shallow wells near the open and unce-
mented sewers. Osaka, In a sanitary
sense, Is standing challenge and at
front to every reasonable precaution
against disease-or 1t was few years
ago when the writer last visited It, and
he has heard of no changes for the
better since. Naturally the bubonic
plague hangs on. yet no great moriali-
ty has ensued. Even in that almost
hopeless place the work OF sanitary
committees has borne some fruit New
ertheless II the fact We're otherwise 1t
would not have compelled doubt in our
own ability to stamp out the scourge
in Honolulu.
This place is coming out all right,
All that is needed is the strenuous
prosecution OF the measures now in
hand, not emitting fire,

PUBLIC VEAL
A Civic Federation is
Proposed.
George w. Smith Believes Work o.
Citizens Committee Should
be Continued Hereafter

a civic federation OF municipal
league will probably be- one OF the Or
ganizations growing out Of the present
system Of sanitary reform Instituted
by the work Of the Citizens Sanitary
Committee. From the reports OF the
citizens relative to the sanitary condi-
tons Of Honolulu, 1t Is assumed that
an organization such rs Chicago and
Boston possess, which has proved
power in extending boundaries, in
keeping a perfect system of sanitation
in reducing the chances OF epidemics
to minimum, and in preventing po-
litical jobberies, will prove boon for
Honolulu in the future, especially In
keeping the Asiatic portion of the city
in Clearly condition.
Mr.. George w. Smith of the Board
of Health is firm believer in sucn or
CARNATIONS when kept apart from pol
tiles, and feels that the present work
of the Citizens Sanitary Committee
should be continued after the present
question of the plague is settled, al
though Based on somewhat different
lines.
IL certainly believe" said he, in
forming a municipal league or civic
federation that would be entirely out
of politics, and would have for its main
purpose the best interests of the city
such as looking after the sanitary con-
ditions, general improvements, and all
those affairs that would come under
the name of good city government. /
believe that now Is the time to form
league, prior to the passage of the
Territorial BILL so that when the time
arrives to form our municipal govern
ment In Honolulu we may be prepared
for its new interests, and keep it Inde-
pendent Of political rings, and free
from any political machine influence.
This organization should be estab-
lished to hold the city in absolute con-
troll SO far as its best needs and i'm
provements are concerned. / believe
that the harbor quarantine will be ia
ken out of our hands in time. In view
OF this fact much more detailed atten-
ton can be given to city improvements
and city sanitation, and am ready at
any time to unite with our citizens in
forming such a body. Look at. the
work of the civic federations and mu-
nicipal leagues Of the large cities OF
the Mainland, and the splendid work
they have accomplished for the benefit
of their respective communities. We
have the right kind of intelligence
here and the right spirit, and that we
can unite upon question has been
shown in the recent epidemic"

The Washington Post reports that Il
Senator from Wyoming will introduce
an amendment to the Cullom bill eX-
tending the Hawaiian franchise to
women. Woman suffrage Is n fad of
the Wyoming statesman, but we can
not see why that should entitle him to
inject his theories into the organic
construction of Territory which Wy
oming is not especially concerned in
and which its Senators have not
been asked to represent. That kind
of legislation is meddlesome. Hawaii
passed on women suffrage in the con-
vention which framed the Constitution
of the Republic and rejected it-wheth-
er properly or not we do not pretend
to say-and having done so, it is not
for Wyoming or Missouri or any other
State to step in and try to force the
measure upon us. There is such a
thing, in the American system, as per-
hitting a new Territory to make its
own choice of local institutions not in
compatible with the Federal charter,
and this has been done by Hawaii in
The text of the Cullom bill. What
right has any one to graft on the choice
of Wyoming?

The fact that Japan has ordered
100 900 warm uniforms for winter wear
from London manufacturers Is re-
garded as another sign that the little
brown men anticipate job in Siberia.
During the Manchurian campaign five
years ago the troops suffered severely
with the cold, which at times was reg
istered twenty degrees below zero. The
uniforms then in use, barring gray
blanket overcoats, were the ones suit
ed TO the mild climate of Central ia
pan. The experience then gained with
the rigors of the Northern climate will
stand the Japanese in good stead when
a Siberian campaign comes on.

The inventors are busy vieing with
Marcohi in the field of wireless teleg-
raphy., The last number of the Liter
AIRY Digest notes the invention of an
electrical buoy intended to hold Mar
conf transmitter which will notify APP
preaching vessels having suitable re-
ceivers of their situation. At Chicago
some highly interesting experiments
have been made. Two inventors, so the
account says, Succeeded in telegraph
ing without wires through suite of
rooms, with all doors closed, and
through seven walls. Another test was
made, when the signals we're conveyed
through three fireproof vaults and an
ordinary telegraph switchboard, in
VIII. ch thirty wires We're connected up
and about forty dead wires Were locat-
ed. Notwithstanding the fact that this
switchboard contained live wires, the
current passeo through all of the vaults
and through this board. This probably
is the most severe test ever given wire
less telegraphy A third test was made,
in which the sending instrument was
placed inside of one of the steel vaults
and both doors were closed and the
lock turned. The signals
were then transmitted clearly from the
inside of the vault to an adjoining
room"

The idea Of a Citizens League is TAX
ing hold of the people who realize
that there must be some kind of an
organization to crystalline public vigil
lance and spirit and keep officials up
to their duty. New spapers cannot do
the whole work however earnest and
fearless their policies may be. There
must be an organization of strong
minded voters as there was in New
York in DIR. Parkhurst's time to join
hands with tie press and achieve some
thing besides criticism. Seeing how
easily Honolulu gets over it's plague
scares and permits old insanitary con-
ditions to recur, the field for Citizens
League Is wide open and most inviting.

The chance TO reserve a part of the
burned area to accommodate the
growth Of the white commercial section
Is one that really ought not to be lost
1t implies, however the cooperation
of men who are ready, when permitted.
to put up fine structures there. About
all the Government can do Is to prevent
building Of any kind on the tract until
the Chinese business men are located
elsewhere; and to condemn part If
the thirty acres for public use. That
would make room for park and also
when the municipality comes into be-
ing, for city hall and other public
buildings. In the end we should have
the Waikiki half of the tract between
Nuuanu street and the stream a credit
able part of the business quarter and
the Eva half a fine pleasure ground.
with the new Chinatown beyond the
stream. Nothing could be more suit
able than that from the point of view
of the future Honolulu. When this
city reaches 100000 population 1t must
either have the use OF the old China
town area for business or municipal
purposes or 1t must encroach on the
residence streets, turning them into
commercial avenues. We should rather
see the Aslatics pressed back than the
owners OF Honolulu's most beautiful
and stately homes, the more so be- |
cause the Japanese and Chinese would |
be as well off on one side of the Nuu-
anu stream as the other.
This latter conclusion Is by no means
forced. Recent inquiry shows that the
bulk of the Aslatic retail trade is
with Asiatics and not with whites. SO
far as white trade is concerned, rapid
transit could be depended upon to give
it prompt access to the Oriental mer
chants and II the district Is sanitary
such access might be sought oftener
than was the case in the old China
town. At any rate, and without going
over the whole ground, we can believe
that the Asiatics would have no cause
to complain II put on the Eva side
of the creek. while the people of the
greater Honolulu Of ten years hence
would have a deal of reason for regret |
If they were permitted to reoccupy the
tract now cleared.
We cordially emphasize Mr.. McClel-
lan's advice to begin planning now for
the future Honolulu. The chance is
Providentially at hand and it may
never come again. If the plan is wise
ly drawn Honolulu will prosper; if not
it may lose half of its natural oppor-
tuntes of growth.

The military budget of the Trans
vaal for the ten years enolng in 1898
is published and 1t shows that Great
Britain, as the suzerain power, has
been either indifferent or blind to an
extraordinary danger. Reviewing the
figures 1t will be seen that the Beers
have been all the while preparing for
war with the only power, save Portu-
gal, they were in position to make war
upon. Here is the schedule of military
appropriation up from 1889 to 1898 in
