Revolutions.

The strength of this conservative
element has been one of the main causes
of the numerous revolutions that have
afflicted the Latin republics and by
their recurrence, they prevented the
people from learning that there is any
other way to settle a natioal issue in
politics than by force of arms. A ma
ton that lives through half dozen re-
vo1utions in a generation becomes fa-
miliarised with the idea of effecting re-
suits by this means.
The Spanish Republics are not the
only countries where factions have
stood ready to take power into their
own hands at any unfaverab1e turn of
affairs, but the English speaking races
have never shown great sympathy with
revolutionary methods, they manifest a
firm adherence to legal means for ac-
complishing public ends; their allegian-
&c is to impsrsona1 law :
The Spirit of Enterprise.

feuds and prejudiees of the past, ano'

Unwittingly they pay the Prince the

does not sit like the figure on the silver
coin. ever looking backward-he is Mt

To be worth a following must move
ahead-opward and upward; not SINK
back into the shadows of the past,
searching for some old grievance. That
is one of the> things which distinguish
the Prince from his opponent. The Re-
pubiican leader knows that. if the Ha-
waiian expects to get on in an Amer
lean Territory he must join American
parties and identify himself with Amer
lean issues, not necessarily forgetting
the past, but assuredly not returning
to it.
The election of Prince Kuhio will
mean that Hawaiians propose TO go
ahead; that they will not finger in the
graveyards When that declaration is
made at the polls Hawaiian influence at
Washington will go up thousand per
cent.

TRAM AND TRANSIT.

it. The rest remains for the London
stockholders who will consider sale
with the pay in Rapid Transit securi-
Ties AS there is nothing in the mule

is having well, it may be anticipated
that London will agree to the transfer.
In that event we may expect the eX-
tension of the Rapid Transit system
to every part of the town where the
service is required and to the popula-
fed suburbs; also the elimination from
the streets of such an obstacle to traiiic
as the tracks and switches OF the Tram
