ernor whether such state prevailed
In his realm. He replied that 1t did
not, saying that Burma is peaceful
throughout, and that its rapid growth
is an evidence of the quiet conditions.
He says that the better class Burmans
are loyal to Great Britain, and that
they appreciate the fact that they
arc better off now than they had
been in the days OF King Thiebaw or
at any time in the past. The governor
spoke OF the Burmans as men, saying
that he held them in the highest re.

How B,lrmu is Governed.
At my request His Honor told me
something aboutltf1e government OF the
country. The lieutenant-governor is
assisted by legislative council OF
nine members. OF whom four are non-
officials selected from the mercantile
community and native chiefs. The
Others are chosen by the governor
himself. This council aids IN maxi
ing the laws and 1t will be seen
that the natives have an import
ant part in it. Sir Herbert tells
me that many OF the highest Offices are
held by Burmans. and that the under
officials are usually natives.
Outside the council, the lieutenant.
governor has cabinet much like that
of our President He has secretaries
of the treasury. of public works, of
railways and OF irrigation; He has a
police department., an educational de-
partment and commissioners Of post
offices, collectors of customs and a SUI
persntendent OF telegraphs. In fact the
machinery OF government is much like
that OF any large country.
In the Public Offices.
This city Of Rangoon is the capital
of Burma. Mandalay. as you know,
was the place where Thiebaw lived
but when the English ousted him they
removed the seat Of rule for the whole
country to this city. Since then big
buildings have gone up to accommodate
the Offices. The secretariat,4 for In
stance, consists Of an enormous struct-
ure of two stories running around a
hollow square of several acres. IT has
as many rooms as one Of the great
government buildings at Washing ton.

they are on the eve OF change. Sir
Herbert Thirkel1 White has been con-

has been their absolute ruler. He had
to do with the oyerthrowing OF Thic-

with the annexation OF Upper Burma

sorts Of positions, beginning as a young
officer on the governors staff at about
the time that President Grant stopped

Honor referred to that visit. He telis

that he saw. He believed in the future
OF Asia, and said that Rangoon would

The lieutenant-gove tells me 1
that the good roads movement Is in

$1,S0O,000 q years on maintaining and
extending them. The average country

ton, has width OF from sixty to one
hundred feet. with 9 path sixteen feet
wide In the centre. The foundat ton Is

The cost of the roads Is high on ac-s
count OF the luHuriant vegetation. and
in lower Burma 1t Is said to be some

This Is largely owing to the scarcity
