Dom Paul, If not captured, is prob
ably on his way to Portuguese terri
tory where he would be safe from Brit
ish hands. We doubt that Lord Rob
.erts is very anxious to take him, for
Dom Paul, as a prisoner Of state, would
awaken the worlds sympathy, while as

soon pass out of view along with Don

All signs show that the collapse of
the Boer war is due to the fears of the
rich freeholders that they would, by
lighting longer, lose their property as
well as their independence. Pretoria
resolutely declined to accept the atten-
tions of the lyddite shell. The decision
was neither magnificent. nor was it
war; but 1t shows that the Dutchmen
of the Veldt have not lost any of the
hard common sense they got from their
ancestors.

The Star, which is the only intelligent
Republican paper in the evening field,
is not deceived as to the objects of the
Wilcox outfit, 1t says;
certain part OF the Hawaiian people
has decided that 1t will be an excellent
thing for the advancement of the Ter
ritory TO draw the color line II must be
remembered that II Is the Hawaiians
themselves who have decided upon this
distinction. We shall be told by and by
that whites have drawn the line. 1t cam
not be too soon understood that II is the
Hawaiians or IA section of them, which
has decided TO make distinction-not the
whites. The Republican and Democratic
parties here have thrown their ranks
open without distinction of color. They
have formed on the broad lines of man
mood suffrage, and are based upon opin-
ion, not on prejudice,
What this group of men intend to do
In to play upon the prejudices OF their
fellow countrymen, and have distinct
anti-whto party.
What is more they are free to say as
much privately though In public ut
terances they try to disarm suspicion
But all the same these fatuous Royalist
societies imagine that they are to have
an easy task in driving the white an
neNationist to the wall and undoing
the work of reform in these Islands.

From the small attendance at the ma

audience 1t would seem that the ma.
,ority OF the Hawaiians, including the
better class are by no means inclined
TO join the anti-haole party. II this is
true 1t is a most propitlous circum-
stance Nothing could be more harm

the price Of lis of 1907 and 1925, with

The four per cents. of 1925 reached

poses To extend the macndan a couple

have subscribed over 5000 now ana
the amount IL still growing. They sub
scribe from so To 500 each, depend
ing upon the number OF acres owned.

tended this year six miles TO Elvirn.

mail delivery route.
They further propose to extend tue
system OF good roads by running north
and south from the terminus 80 that
others can be accommodated. Farmers
still further away are offering TO help
and II IL likely that within two years
the macadam will be extended TO the
towns In the western portion Of the

board IL thus encouraged to conccn-
trate improvements and have u system
