ing up their mining district to the south
of the city. The Russians seem not to
have begun work upon their mining
concessions as yet.
That modern industry and western
machinery should be used in a country
which was so little known till within
a very few years, shows how swiftly
progress can be made, if there is
capital and energy to back them. That
the American concessions should be the
most quickly brought to a successful
issue is only another straw showing
what our country's place is to be in the
east. We are going to be the leading
commercial nation of the regenerated
East Our goods already stand high. and
many of them stand first in the Eastern
markets. They penetrate, through the
hands of native traders, far beyond the
sphere of American influence.
But it is not only our goods and our
machinery which will have and are
having influence. 1t is ourselves. 1t is
the versatile and adaptable American
yho is having and will have the chief
influence upon the East. The effect of
even few energetic Americans in Ko-
rea must be far greater than their num-
bers may seem to warrant. Even Rus
sian stolidity must yield to American
go" The Russian will not have it all
his own way in Korea.

DEVELOPMENT OF THE HAMMER.

Tracing the development of the ham
mer, the International Monthly says:
Mans first tool was the uplifted hand
grasping a stone, and from this came,
after many years, the hammer. AS
heavier blows became necessary the
hammer grew in size, until it was oper-
ated by machinery in the form of the
tilt or helve hammer.
when steam succeeded water as
motive power, a steam cyclinder re-
placed the tripping cam, but the first
half of the past century had nearly ex-
pired before the original form of this
tools was at all changed by James
Nasmyth's invention of the upright
steam hammer. Since then the falling
weight of this design of tool has grad
dred pounds up to 100 and even 1875
tons; but excepting the smaller sizes,
up to twenty-five tons, it has since 1890
been superseded by the hydraulic press,
which by it's slow motion produces a
more thorough working of the metal.
Presses have grown until the capa-
city of $4,000 tons was reached in 1898,
requiring a $1,000 horsepower engine
to drive it. Such a tool, with its ac-
compartment of 20O-ton electric cranes
for handling the work underneath, is
capable of forging isgots over seventy
five inches in diameter and weighing
more than 25O,OOO pounds. This whole
plant, costing over $25O, 900, was not pro-
jected without an adequate under
standing that it was to meet the COM
mercial demands of many years to
come, and industrial developments,
great as these have been, have not as
yet called for anything that has tasked
it's full capacity"

HAMAKUA DROUGHT.

| We have had our forest fire in Ha-
makua, which has done a very large
amount of damage, but we are by no
means the only sufferers. Fires of I'M
precedentcd vastness have swept over
various provinces of tn Empire dur
ing this summer, causing damage to
the estimated extent of $4,000, OOO VIII
lagos have been destroyed and In one
case a town containing $4,000 inhabit-
ants has been practically wiped out.
Before such Wholesale destruction as
this our loss seems comparatively
small.
But our loss is quite as vital, and
perhaps more vital to us, as the enor-
nous losses elsewhere. One of our
most fertile districts has been crippled
by the drought and the fire, and it may
take years to bring it into proper con-
dition again. Tie planters have suffer-
ed and the homesteaders have suffered,
and unless the relief of ruin comes they
are liable to suffer still more.
In large country disaster may come
to a section, but it does not affect the
general prosperity appreciably. In a
small country it decidedly does. Disas-
ter in Hamakua will react upon our
business in Hilo and in Honolulu.
Whether at the outset of the Hamakua
forest fires something could have been
done, by united effort to check them.
is problematical. The forests have
been during the long period of drought
fairly baked through and there is the
authority of Judge Little for the fact
that the fire shoulders underground
among old roots and so forth, and then
breaks forth at half a mile distance
from where the original fire was.
OF course if the fire can be fought it
ought to be fought, but one would have
thought that the fighting to be effectual
should have taken place long ago, be-
fore it had got the hold which it has
now. That the people of Hamakua are
in great straits for water is evident
from all accounts that have come down.
1t is not only the sugar plantations, but
the people are driven to their wits end
for water for domestic purposes. This
is by means the first drought that Ha-
makua has suffered. Old Hawaiians
say droughts come in cycles, and will
even attempt to predict a drought. But
this is the first time that the forest has
suffered as it has done.

DANIEL A. RAY.

Daniel A. Ray United States Marshal
was suddenly summoned by death this
morning. lie had occupied his posi-
tion little more than a year. but during
that time had won numbers of friends
who appreciated his whole souled
geniality and his kindness of heart
The late Marshal Ray came to the
Islands no unknown man. He had visit
ed them twice. On the first occasion
he accompanied the Cullom Commission
and later he came to investigate the
Asiatic labor question, upon which he
wrote an able report. On his arrival
to take up his position as United States
Marshal for the Territory he was better
informed as to the territory and it's
needs than people who had not had
the opportunities for observation which
he had had
Though born in New York Mr.. Ray
spent the best years of his life in Hi
nois, and was a prominent political
worker in that state. He was well
known throughout the state and was a
trusted friend of Senator Culom. In
this again he had an advantage, for
Senator Cullom is one of the best in
formed men, if not the best informed
man in the Senate, upon Hawaiian af-
fairs
Modest and retiring in his habits the
late Marshal took great deal of in
terest in our territorial affairs, and
through his friends in Congress sup
piled considerable information at first
hand. His sterling worth gradually
made itself felt among those who were
privileged to know him intimately, and
was appreciated by even his acquain-
tances. OF him, aside from his fitness
for the various positions he filled dur
ing his life, as far as this Territory is
concerned, it can be said He was a
good friend of the best interests of the
islands, and a thorough believer in their
progress"

In few countries perhaps is water, as
a commodity, realized at so nearly its
true value as in Hawaii. The gigantic
scheme for water conservation in the
Kohala mountains, now under consid-
Grafton, calls attention anew to this
value.

The Pearl Harbor land suits may be

would be many juries.
