JUST A WORD.
Here and There From the
American Press.

New York Tribune: -" Every days delay
in settling the Chinese case is gravely in
furious both to China and to the Powers
themselves. 1t is pity the diplomats, or
the governments behind them, have not
been able before this to come to an agree
ment. 1t is earnestly to be wished that
they might come to such an agreement at
once, or in the very near future. But
they have not done so, and there is, so far
as the world can see, no encouraging
prospect of their doing So In such cir
cumstances the proposal to submit the case
to the court of arbitration is certainly
deserving of the most careful consideration
by all Powers which really desire q prompt
and equitable settlement, which, it is to
be assumed, means all the Powers"
He Did His Duty.
Syracuse Post-Standard:-" There is a
big lesson for law officers everywhere in
the way in which Sheriff Merrill, of Car
rolition, Ca, prevented a mob from lyn-
ching negro in his charge. The Sheriff
simply did his duty in quiet, determined
sort of a way, which makes him honored
and landed all over the country"
Uncle Sam, Staggerer."
Boston Herald" The president of the
Vienna Chamber of Commerce said in re-
cent speech to the Austrian House of
Lords that the chief danger to Austrian
trade lies in American, and that, unless
cheap means of transportation are created,
central Europe is in danger of being crus.
he'd by America competition. Uncle Sam
is becoming something of staggerer for
all Europe"
Easy Forgetfulness.
Galveston News" Mr.. Bryan in his
latest speech says that the people have not
yet passed on what he is pleased to term
g Imperialism" If they have not, it is
their fault. Surely, the paramount issue''
attracted their attention. Mr.. Bryan must
not forget the "Third Declaration of In
dependence so soon."
Adding to His Popularity.
Pittsburg Dispatch:-' If fanything could
add to the popularity OF President Nc
Kinley it is his proclamation. Few ever
believed him capable of third term am.
bitlon, though there are time servers enough
around him sufficiently officious and subs
ervient to give show of prestige to his
candidacy if he would only consent. 1t is
no deep admiration that moves these per-
sons, but desire to bathe themselves in a
continuation of the reflected light from the
White House."
MAY Make it Six Years"
Chicago Record" BY a few strokes Of
his pen Mr.. Mckinley has exercised the
spectre of third term for at least ten years
Before it can be revived we may have
heightened the single term to six years
and made the occupant OF the White House
Ineligible to succeed himself"

Are The British OF The Boer.
War.

While the recent cnief topic Of tax was
/ the mishap to the ShamrCch ii now the
thoughts of people have shifted far away
! from the Solent to scenes of much saddel
happenings Everybody may be heartily
sick Of that distressing war in South Africa
but interest has been revived in a most
remaTka ble manner, when, the papers came
on. with some three colums Of casualties
says Lo- don Correspondent.
Fighting people were aghast. Where and
on what occasions mad so many poor f, llosS
been kiled and wounded in action. Moth
/ ing had been known, either through official
reports or newspaper correspondents. Viii
le it was announced long time ago that
Lord Kitchener had determined to keep all
movements as secret as possible, it was
imagined that the war was dragging YEARLY
along and that little had been done. These
casualties have shown that there has Deen
severe fighting at times and that the capture
of stores and ammunition from the Beers
have not been made without considerable
loss aud determined, dogged resistance on
their part.
Then came Lord Kitchenet's report of
General Dixon's battle with Delereyis forces
in which, though the Beers were driven eff,
the British loss was very evidently much
heavier than that Of tho Beers.
From what has tranSpired it looks as il
these engagements have been part OF we'll
defined plan on the part of the Beers. With
B0tha occupying Sir Bndon Blood's atten-
ton on the east and Kritzlpger extremely
active IN Cape Colony, where he les made
captures usefal to his forces Dsiarey has
made Ibis SO FIR successful attack near Joa-
annesburg on ths anniversary day ol Brit
ish occupation, Killing and wOundIng ia of
the British and getting away with compsr
atlY+ly small less, ana not, so far as Known,
losing any prisoners or stores; so that if the
Beers are officially reported as beaten of
tie day cannot be said to have gone to the
British.
Questions are being asked Are the
Beers endeaYoring to make their way to
the fertile but difficult regions of Cape
Colony, there to spend the winter! Is De
Wet going to lead them thither? Are these
engagements around Johannesburg simply
to draw of Ktchener'S attention? Ii that
be so the war is very lar from being at an
end yet
Is 1t any wonder therefore that interest
IN this tireSome subject has been renewed
here, that everybody is more sick than ever
OF talking about the B1er war;

GOVERNORS COUNCIL.

GOVERNORS COUNCIL.
Yesterday was the regular day for the
session of the Executive Council, but
as there Were very few heads OF DEPART
ments left, ard the Governor was in
disposed, no meeting was held. The fol-
lowing opinion. however, was given out
by Attorney General Dole:
Il have the honor, at your request, to
submit the following report relative to
the application of DR.. James H. Ray
mond for permission to prospect for wa
ter in the land of Kahikinui, and, If
found, to use the same according to the
terms which he Offers
The facts, as 1 understand them, are
as follows: Kahikinui is a tract of
about 1900 acres. None of it is capable
of being utilized for agriculture; part of
it is mountain pasturage and the re-
mainder is waste of rocks. Dr. Ray
mond is in possession as assignee of a
lease from the Government The lease
has about thirteen YEARS to run. The
value of the land will be greatly increas-
ed If supply of water sufficient for
drinking purposes can be developed. DR..
Raymond has already spent about a
thousand dollars prospecting, and has
obtained sufficient water to supply one
drinking trough. He thinks it probable
that by tunnelling six or eight hundred
feet, enough water can be found to fill
one-half inch pipe. This will require
quite large outlay. DR.. Raymond S
proposition is to assume the risk and ex-
pense on condition that one-half of the
water which he finds shall be appurte
nant to the land of Kahikinui, and the
other half appurtenant to neighboring
land some six miles away which he
owns in fee simple, he having the per-
petual right to convey it to said land by
means of a water pipe.
The only utility of this large section
of Maui is for grazing purpose, and the
number of cattle that can exist upon i,
depends upon the possibility of obtain
ing water for them to drink 1t has
heretofore been considered, as l under
stand, by persons familiar with this
mountain tract, that such an undertak-
ing as DIR. Raymond proposes is imprac-
ticable; and if he at his own risk and
expense. is willing to try it, it certainly
is for the public interest that he should
be permitted to do so.
Il am inclined to think that it is in
the power of the Territorial Govern
ment to accept his offer.
While. under the Organic Act, the
control, use, income and benefit of this
land is IN the Territory of Hawai- until
Congress otherwise directs, the title is
in the United States, and l think any
contract between the Territorial Gov.
ernment and DR. Raymond should con.
tain provision that it is made subject
to the rights of the United States"

THE COUNT WINS.
a Famous Case in the English Chan
Gerry Court.


LONDON, April 25.-The 4Chancery
Court has decided that Count Reinholt
Moore vo1<Rosen, residing at Stockholm,
as the eldest son of Count Won Rosen,
formerly chamberlain of the King of
Sweden and Norway, and his American
wife, who was a Miss Moore, is the real
count as rightful heir to the fortune left
by Mrs. Clara Jessnp Moore, his grand
mother. From a statement of counsel, it
appeared that some one in America rep
resented himself to be Count Reinholt
asserting that the Stockholm claimant
had been substituted for him by the Won
Rosens. Justice Joyce found that the
American claimants representations
were bogus and fraudulent. The money
in dispute amounts to G55,0o0 or ESQ 900.
Mrs. Moore was better known as Mrs.
Bloomfield Moore, who financed Kelley.
the Philadelphia inventor. who became
famous through the exploitation of a
mysterious motor.
