LOCAL FORTTFICATlONs.

While it is not likely that the criti-
cisms of Punckbowl fort site had
anything to do with the refusal of the
Senate to accept the House item appro-
priating money for defences here, even
if it had, the objections to putting our
sea forts behind the town were proper
to state and are proper to reiterate.
Honolulu wants forts to save it from
harm, not to bring harm to it. A fort
on Punchbowl, if it fired at a naval
enemy, would invite a reply that must
annihilate this city. An Army board
has declared Punchbowl unsuitable on
that account and has pointed out that

ROASTING AND BATTLING.

The general who says he viii never
surrender and that he win die in the
last ditch, etc, is not, as rule, an
awesome parsonage. One cannot I'M
agine Napoleon, Wellington, Won
Noltke or Grant talking in that strain.
1t is the language of Bombastes Flu
rioso. In the mouth of the commander
of the defences of Port Arthur such
sentiments leave the impression that
the Russian fortress, once securely in
vested. cannot long hold out and that
the general himself will be first to show
the white feather.
1t is noticeable that the japanese
officers have been modest in all their
references to the war. Even the official
reports of victories are almost meek
in their phraseology. The nearest TO
boasting any high japanese officer has
come in the public prints was when
one of them said that he thought his
ship would be sunk but that he meant
to sink a Russian ship with it. jap
anese officers as a class have been
serious in their demeanor, saying little
of what might be expected of them but,
by their care in making their wills, re-
leasing their wives from the obliga-
ton not to marry again, paying their
debts, etc, have revealed their intent
to take dire personal risks. Such a
spirit is that of the man who rejoices
only when he takes his arnor off-the /
man who, in all history, has made the /
most dangerous adversary.
While Russians boast, Japanese
strive. The one professes-or professed
contempt for his enemy and failed to
put up his guard. The other knew
that he had a strong foe to deal with
and fought the harder for that, with
results which have earned the applause
of the world. 1t all goes to make
story that dates from the dawn of ma
tons but which has to be re-learned in i
every age. II

The ruler of Japan really should be
called ten-o, not mikado. The latter
means royal gate and is a title some
what similar to sublime porte" which
is used indifferently to mean the Turk
ish sultan, his government or the coun-
try itself. 'Ten-o'' means heavens
highest" title surprising all the most
grandiloquent European efforts. The
original Japanese equivalent for ten-o
is soumelamikoto, but the former is
universally used, perhaps on account of
its breyity. The present Ten-o of ia
pan is the 121st of his line from Jim
mu-Ten-o.

BY sending officers of high rank to

Cotton Would be a Sue
cess in, Hawaii Says
Wahiawa CoIonist.

Cotton, pineapples and castor bean
are the three crops for Hawaii at whicl
the small farmer can make success
in the opinion of Dr. E. c. Rhodes, on
of the seven original Wahiawa colo
nists. Pineapples and castor beans
are already paying in wahiawa anC
Mr.. Rhodes believes that cotton coulC
also be made to pay well.
&c. w. Thwing of Wahiawa has Z
number of cotton plants and they arc
growing with no care, to a large size.
said Mr.. Rhodes. 81 am familiar with
cotton in Georgia, where I lived for
! two years, but 1 have never seen it do
so well as does the cotton here In the
States, cotton has to be planted every
year while here it grows for five or
ten years without reNplanting. And
it grows a great deal larger, too. In
Professor Lyons yard in this city the
cotton would have covered a space
twenty feet square if it had not been
cut out.
Here cotton can be planted on the
first day of May and it natures by
September. Then it can be picked
four times year after that. Cotton
grows in alluvial soil, which has to be
we'll cultivated. 1t requires plenty of
water but L believe natural resources
here are sufficient. The soil has to be
we'll fortified and we'll cultivated,
1.-THE cotton is of a better quality
here than in the South. The seed
which ALWAYS causes So much trouble
can be picked out by hand There the
white fiber adheres closely to the. seed
and is a source of much trouble. The
is one which I believe would
be profitable here. The gin mills re-
CURED are not expensive and it would
be a good industry for the small farm
er. In the South there are many five
and ten acre cotton plantations. There
is probably two hundred acres of land
at Wahiawa which would be suitable
for cotton cultivation. The species
here now may be South Sea Island
cotton, which is a better quality than
that grown in the South. I was told
by Professor Alexander today that dur
ing the war when cotton prices were
almost prohibitive, cotton was raised
in sufficient quantity here to supply
local needs, and perhaps for export.
When prices dropped after the war,
the industry was given up
Mr.. Rhodes said that castor bean and
pineapple cultivation was being carried
on with great success at Wahiawa. A
two years contract had been made by
the Wahiawa farmers for the sale of
their pines to the Hawaiian Pineapple
Co.

PHYSICIANS DOUBTFUL
ON MUMPS BACILLUS
District Health Officer and Others Want Additional Proof
Before Accepting the Announcement From Baltimore

The discovery of the germ of mumps
by DR.. Samuel Darling, a Baltimore
phy stefan, is regarded as an important
event by the medical profession. This
il what many Washington physicians
think of it, They say it means a great
step i'm advance Of what was previously
known of this malady of boys and
girls.
The. Philadelphia doctors met the an
Iuouncement with the statement that
the discovery was invaluable if il had
really occurred. They were eager to
see the germ, but they were cautious
about admitting that the parasite had
been found.
The if is well taken said Health
Officer Woodward. in commenting upon
the newspaper criticisms on the matter
this morning 1T is always well to
90 slow in such things The. best plan
for establishing such a discovery is to
have 1t repeated by an independent in
vestigatOr If he finds the same thing
as the original explorer, we can be
safer ia accepting such an important
announcement in medical circles.
While the discovery Of the germ IS
a great help in the trca tment of mumps,
it by no means is the final step in the
prevention and cure of the atlment
We may know what the germ is, but
We must also know where il originates,
how il travels from person to person,
and how il can be dealt with most et-
fectively.
The majority of the physicians think
that the discovery is an important
fact. if it is a fact but they hold
that il has not been indisputably es-
Iablished that the real germ is found
