PROGRESS, THE ICONOCLAST.

If it is true that the old empire of
Persia is thinking about a school sys-
tenn modelled upon that of the United
States, the Arabian Nights entertain
ment which she has been affording
travellers ever since historical wayfar
ing began will soon draw it's curtains
and put cabs in its bazaars. The
common school has the seeds in it of
all kinds of change. 1t is capable of
lifting the astrakan hat off, the swar-
thy brow of Abdul Mira Khan and re-
placing 1t with the visored headpiece
of the chauffeur; it can put a checked
suit on him. a four-in- hand tie about
his throat, and garb his once sandaled
feet in waukenphasts. If the school
comes, the sky-scraper will follow, the
paved street, the trolley car, the auto
mobile, the piped water, the Paris
NODES the sewer, the policeman, the
political Judge, the beer garden, the
daily paper and the primaries-for of
such is the Kingdom OF knowledge.
And mayhap, before long, the columns
of the Teheran Commercial Advertiser
will run dry with a discussion of
whether or not the teachers of the new
schools are putting in enough time at
their tasks.
There won't be much left of the Asia
of romance after awhile. The country
over which Kublai and Genghis led
their invincible spearmen now rings
with the whir of car-wheel upon rail
and rumbes with artillery and is made
electric with the talking wire. China
imports sewing machines and beer;
India is learning English in her public
schools; Japan, which Marco Polo saw,
is now a modern manufacturing State;
there are American colleges in Asia
Minor: one hears talk of a Bagdad
railway; into Thibet marches a civil
izing column of Anglo-Saxon troops
with the trader at it's heels; and in
Bible lands one hears the call of the
conductor: Jerusalem! twenty min
utes for refreshments! All aboard for
Bethlehem! Change cars for Naza-
reth!"
All! If they would but save one place
in all Asia from the contamination of
the Twentieth Century - one place
where Nazr Ahmed Din would sit
smoking in his bazaar and where, from
between the lacquered shutters of the
seraglio, eyes would peep and flash; one
place where the tinkling of the caravan
and the muezZin's call would abide
forever and the sound of the school bell
and of the newsboy could never be
heard: just one musky corner of the
world where the throb of the Indian
drum and the reedy whine of the Chi
nese flute would hear no EARRING alien
note. But 1t is not to be- The world
must be civilized, which means maxi

next after the missionary and the
Arabian Nights grow tawdry and gar

shine out upon them from the arc.

In the Call of January Q, Serene 5.
Pratt, editor of the Wall Street Jour
nal, contributes a long range Vaticina-
ton on Hawaiian politics There is
some fact in the article mixed with
statements and deductions against
which even hardened risibles are not
proof. For example after stating that
the Hawaiians are not friendly to the
United States, the Wall street COM
mentator says: I'VE are holding Ha-
wall so far as the natives are con-
cerned as conquered country. We
are holding 1t by moral force, II Is true,
for the army of occupation is small
Camp Mckinley, near Honolulu, the
only military post on the islands, could
not long survive an attack by the ma
tives in force. But the Hawaiians
know that the shores of the American
mainland are not far away, and that
with the vessels at the command of
the United States it would be n mat
ter of few days only before a force
large enough to eXterminate them could
be landed.
1T is the moral force OF this knowl-
edge that holds the Hawaiians from
open rebellion against the United
States, not any love for this country
or its people or its institutions" And
to think that a group which the white
community of Honolulu held in the hol-
low of its hand during five revolu-
tionary years, while awaiting annexa-
ton, is now only kept from rebelling
against the United States by the moral

PEOPLE SHOULD LOOK
BEFORE THEY LEAP

Boil the opinions down and you reach
this result To draw county act
which will hold water is a very diff
cult thing. 1t will take much time,
even with the experience we have 20
draw such an act, and there would be
flaws, which even the greatest care
could hardly prevent. The present
county act may be legaliZed In Con-
gress with certain notifications. We
have appealed to our supreme authority
and 1t IL clear that we should wait till
that authority is heard from. To call
the Legislature together is to entail ex-
penses upon the community which 1t
can ill-afford, in point OF fact which 1t
cannot afford. The eighteen months
appropriation bill does not meet the
situation since 1t does not provide for
the running of certain departments of
the government The Organic Act was
framed to meet just such an emergency
and we should have the government
conducted under this section which al
lows the Governor to fall back upon the
old appropriation bill of 1901, and then
take time and thought as to the flu
ture. That Is the argument in a nut
shelf, and the gist of what the leading
minds agreed on.
If this advice is followed we weather
n stormy cape in the political history of
the Territory. In point of fact it is
the only logical method to follow
There is no immediate need of haste.
There is need of giving time and
thought to the subject. The calling to-
gether of set of representative citi-
zens was a wise move on the part of
the Governor, because it enabled him
to get direct opinions from which there
can be no receding. The Attorney Cen
eral naturally has been called upon for
an opinion and that will help the Gov
ernor But the true help of the Gov
ernor lies with the people. This is
time when he needs the strongest of
support, and the best support that can
be given him is not to hasten into great
argument, or wild proposals. but to
wait and think. This is not a subject
for thoughtless or careless action. 1t
is a matter for calm elaboration

George Francis Train, whose death
occurred last night in New York was
something more than an eccentric char
acter He it was who organized the
clipper ship line that sailed around
Cape Horn to San Francisco in 40 and
made American shipping lead the
world; he organized the Credit Mobilier
and the Union Pacific railroad; he was
one of the organizers of the French
Commune; he built the first street rail-
way in England; he was the business
partner of queens, emperors and grand
dukes, the familiar friend of the great
est people on earth. He was in Jail fiji
teen times and never committed
crime. He made seventy and more sell
voyages and broke the around-the-
world record three times. He formerly
lived in a villa and spent $4,000 a week
maintaining 1t. He died in a So per
week room in Mills Hotel.

as he peered through the bushes at the
hesitating stage, lis to request the
driver to DRIVE ON. Otherwise we
may never get whack at the treasure

element among the highwaymen and
the opinion was freely expressed that
if the driver should turn around or
go by another road he would lose the
confidence of every freebooter In the

Settlers will soon be coming this way
if project now in the hands of the
Hawaii Promotion Committee can be
successfully pushed to completion.
Secretary Boyd of the committee has
received inquiries from the American
Trust & Investment Co. of Des Moines,
Iowa, for large tract of land which
can be b-divided and sold to Ameri-
can settlers. Three large tracts of land
have been secured through the efforts
of the committee, to be placed at the
disposal of the American Trust & In
vestment Co, provided terms are sat
isfactory.
The letter relating to the prospective
coming of settlers is as follows
Des Mones, Iowa, Dec. 81, 1903.
To the Hawaii Promotion Committee.
We are looking for good oppor-
tunity for securing a large tract of land
for the purposes of selling out in small
er pieces to settlers. What opportuni-
ties are there to be found. in the Ha
waian Islands.
Please give us such information as
you can as to lands, available pieces
and what the inducements are to buy
climate, etc. sd -,
Hoping to hear from you soon, we
are Yours truly,

CO.,
BY Angus McKinnon, President.
Because of the fact that the Territory
cannot under the Organic Act ALLEVIATE
lands, in tracts of more than one thou
sand acres to any corporation, the Ha
wall Promotion Committee sent copies
of the letter of inquiry to the various
real estate agents of the Territory. In
reply offers have been received, placing
at the disposal of the Promotion Com
mittee three tracts of land, from 1900
to 5000 acres each in extent which are
suitable for small farmers. These Of
fers have been forwarded to the COM
pany at Des Moines, and probably some
definite arrangement may soon be made
as to the taking over of a tract for set
Element. Whether the deal goes
through or not, the fact that large cor
porations are beginning to look this
way, Is taken as an indication OF
progress for Hawaii in the future. Not
only would the Territory benefit from
the settlement of a large tract by small
farmers, but 1t is felt also that the
advertising made necessary in dispos-
ing of the land by the American Trust
X Investment Co. would result in
great good to the islands.
