Money From Federal Government for
Horses Taken During Civil War
Being Received.

The money which the Federal Gov
eminent by act Of Congress recently
appropriated. to be paid to Confederate
soldiers for horses taken from them
during the civil war, continues to
arrive in Maury County, and it
amounts to u very. consideraDle sum.
Within the past few days vouchers
for between l.00O and $500 have
been received by Confederate veterans
OF this county. Not all this
amount. however. was paid ont
in this county, as many Of the old
veterans who lived In this section dur
ing the war have since moved TO other
states. and are now living In Texas,
Arkansas, Mississippi, and other
places in Tennessee. There were
something like eighty veterans Of this
county entitled to the re- endorsement.
The amount paid to each veteran for
his horse WAS 1886, very good price,
but 1t is doubtful If any veteran
would have sold his borse for that
amount at the time the horses were
taken. for they were badly needed IN
that summer of So, when the Southern
soldiers returned to their devasr ated

STREET MAKING

! 1t has long been plain that the bust
ness of street-making is not understood
in Honolulu. Immense sums of money
/ have been put into pavements which
| travel soon wears down and which a
heavy rainstorm half destroys. Other
build pavements which last. So do
some American cities. In Sydney a
pavement, the principal material of
I which is eucalyptus blocks, stood ten
years service under heavy draying
without need of repair. At least
United States Consul so reported to his
department and the facts We're en-
bodied in public document.
In Honolulu a pavement begins to ex-
pose it's lining in a year. Already on
Bishop street, opposite the mauka end
of the Alexander Young Hotel, the
street surface has worn off enough to
show, in one spot, considerable erup-
ton of crushed rock. Perhaps, in two
years more the street will have to be
repaired. The newly macadamized
highways out Makiki way have suffered
much by the present rains and the
costly hill street up Manoa is a wreck.
1t was estimated the other day that
$4,000 worth of damage had been done,
but the cost of mending will probably
exceed that without bringing the slight
est assurance that the next big storm
will leave the repairs intact.
What the trouble is with our methods
of street-building ought to be got at by
a committee of experts. Is the rock
used too soft? Is matchmaking the
best method to employ? If so, is Ho-
nolulu building streets by MacAdam's
rule? Are the street-builders sighting
their work? All these are problems
which ought to be solved to the end
that our city thoroughfares in future
may not show an endless repetition of
constructive errors and shams
Would it not be we'll to experiment
also with various systems of pavement
on block or two, as was done IN San
Francisco? For instance try four sys-
TENS in a line on two blocks to see
which goes to pieces first under the
same travel; the system which lasts
longest having the preference in all

THE STORM

| The storm which prevails as this
| comment is being written is a kona
which only lacks the accompaniment of
high wind to be one of extraordinary
violence. The last local disturbance of
the kind occurred three winters ago, q
gale coming with the deIuge. Happily
we have so far, in this kona, been
spared from visitation of sustained
high winds
How much water has fallen may be
best appreciated by comparison with
what is called a fair seasons rainfall
in Southern California Day before
yesterday VIM. r. Castle reported
nearly eight inches of rain at his city
residence, registered in twelve hours.
From nine to eleven inches is a fair
average in San Diego for the seven
months when precipitation may be
looked for. So much rain makes good
year. The last coast iiles show that,
since October, Los Angeles has had a
total precipitation of O57 inches, San
Diego of 0.45 inches and Fresno of AS
inches. Even in the North, at San
Francisco, only 10 inches have been
vouchsafed. Out of the entire rain
fall, if it totals eight inches, Southern |
California hopes to impound enough |
water to carry it's agriculture through |
next summer and early fall. 1t is a
safe estimate that such a deluge as we |
are having would be worth ten millions |
of dollars to Southern California in
dustries.

THE SITUATION.

The news received at the local Jap
anese bank yesterday morning that two
Russian battIeships We're sunk and a
cruiser stranded at Port Arthur, was
not verified by the day or night ser
vice of the Associated Press. It may
be true. nevertheless, for the Yokohama
Specie Bank is close to the centers Of
information in Japan; but it is ALWAYS
wen to make allowances foF the excit-
ing runors which usually inspire pri-
vate dispatches from country at war.
The previous Russian news from Port
Arthur was that three ships were dam
aged but not seriously; and the report
has since come from st. Petersburg
that the Russians claim a victory. AS
to the result of the fight at three-mile
range or beyond three-mile range
received from japanese sources, a fact
which is surprising in case the results
were decisive.
The further news, via the bank, that
a Russian cruiser was captured and
another sunk by the japanese at
Chemulpo receives practical confirma-
ton. The Associated Press reports
that both were sunk. naming the Vari-
ag and Korietz The latter is not
down in the books; the former is a .
well-known cruiser of American build. |
In the dispatches received during
the night from Japan and published /
this morning, the lack of official news I
from Port Arthur is conceded. Never
theless the japanese at Tokyo are cele-
brating a victory Chefoo takes it
for granted that the story of the Grip
ping of Russian ships is true and wires
that the prevailing gale will be bad for
them and that the Russian stronghold
IS demoralized. chefoo is near by and
ought to know.
The cancellation of Russian coal
charters at Cardiff would seem to be
an acknowledgment that the Gar no
onger hopes for the command of the
yea. 1t is also reported from London
hat his army in Manchuria numbers
ess than 100000 men. If that is
act and if the railroad isl crippled, !,
hen the military position of the Rus h
dams is desperate. t
However. on all these points, official h
Jews is very desirable. 2

dual alliance. Upon Russian military
prestige the safety of France measur-

away and France would be isolated

stances France might feel inclined to

| Britain. which is indisposed- to stand
by and see Japan overborne by such
coalition. So France, as things now

in a contest where her own fortunes
are involved.
There is another possibility to con-
slider. one which would be more favor
able to France and less so to the peace
Of Europe. 1t may be taken for grant
ed that none of the continental states
want to see Japan become a great
power. Because of that, Germany, in
1895, Joined France and Russia in fore
ing the victorious Japanese out of
Manchuria and wrestling from them the
fruits OF victory. Perhaps Germany
would, if Russia is too hard pressed,
assent to another such alliance for the
purpose of checking the progress and
hurting the pride of the Mikados en-

Kaiser long ago warned Europe to OBJ

On the 9Th of July the Republican
party will be half a century old. In
that time the party has named eight
candidates for the Presidency in twelve
elections and seated six of the nom
inees, carrying nine elections The ex-
ceptions to the rule of success are
noted in the defeats of Fremont, Blaine
and Harrison, the latter when he ran
for second term. During the fifty
years about to close, the Republicans
abolished slavery, gave the currency
gold basis, added Alaska, the Philip
pines, Porto Rico, Hawaii and part of
Samoa to the national domain, settled
the West by a generous land policy,
built up vast manufacturing industry
through protection, increased COM
merce and liberalized the constitution.
Such a record is worth concentrating
in some notable way and as the ami
versary will occur in the midst of the
Presidential campaign, no doubt the
Republicans will make much of it.
