would not be necessary that there

also be ex-offlcio county treasurer, as

is the regular number of meetings in
most of the counties of the Mainland.
The compensation of members of the

treasurer should be only those author

to the Daily Graphic, for the Parlia-

London amounts to 7O9,491. This out OF

Leung Chi-tso is evidently popular
among our Island Chinese. There is no
wonder in this. Mr.. Leung is the en-
bodiment of the western idea, and the
Chinese gentlemen among us have very
thoroughly understood that idea. They
are prepared to accept a western civili-
cation; in point of fact, have accepted
it, and, having done so, it is no wonder
they want to break down the fraud and
corruption in their own country. AS
a fact, a Chinese would be a good deal
happier under a Buckley, Plat or a
Don Cameron, than ever he would be
under Lau Hook Sun or Ii Hung Chang.

That the Kamehameha Alumni Assoc
citation should have a club house is
eminently proper. 1t serves to keep to-
gether the spirit of the institution. Per-
sons may criticize that the land occu-
pied by the club house is not given free
of rent to the alumni-$SOO a year is
charged them-but the idea in Kane
hameha is that nothing should be given
for nothing. Still, such a rule might be
dispensed with under the Circumstance
es. The alumni are not rich. AS fact,
all are struggling young men, and the
$500 year will be somewhat of a drain
on the resources which might be put
to better purpose than paying rent, es-
pecially when it is not really nee
essary demand but purely ethical les
son.

The horseless carriage or automobile
is gradually becoming familiar on the

in town, but it will very soon be tested
whether the automobile will become a

in the end they are bound to become
popular. Anything will be popular
