ROOSEVELT, EGYPT and LORD
CROMER.

Did 1t ever occur to Bulletin
readers in Hawaii that Col. Roose-
velt's startling speech In when he
called Great Britain to account for
its method OF governing Egypt saw
ored very much of some OF our local
experiences? How many times have
our own people been RECALLED on How
Hawaii Should BE Run, by someone
who has taken running jump ride
around our mountains and over our
plains and supplies an immediate so
luton for all problems.
Roosevelt surprised and irritated
the British who were not slow to
speak their mind. We doubt however
that anything has been published In
Great Britain that touches the heart
of the whole matter, in manner that
can be appreciated and enjoyed In
Hawaii. so well as an editorial In the
New York Evening Post entitled

they must at once retrace their STEPS,

peculiarly ,mortifying TO lord Crom-

assured his fellow-countrymen that
the only alternative 10 dnncxlng Egypt

doubtless give worlds to withdraw

light of Mr.. Roosevelt's convincing
demonstration that Egyptian self-gov-

er's advocacy Of "a local Legislature
competent to deal with all local ma
ters." He even dreamed OF scheme
of autonomy which will enable al
the dwellers in cosmopolitan Egypt

The disclosures made by this in

Importance of physical examination

essential to well regulated and ad-

TIGERS, RATTLESNAkES AND
THURSTON.

Primary element OF Sparkling
champagne and sinking swipes" Is
one of the paragraph headings in Pro-
hibitionist Thurston's latest eXplana-
ton of his platform. II fairly indi-
Gates the general tenor OF Thurston's
second announcement on the virtues
of the Thurston- WOolley propaganda
=. and. with remarkable appropriateness
closes with "conundrum for the
feeble minded" While 1t is apparent
that Thurston is addressing his col
umns of absurdity to those of feeble
powers OF understanding In the hopes
of gaining few votes for the Thurs
ton-Woolley platform. II is somewhat
remarkable that he should admit u
so plainly. :
The helmsman of the prohibition
craft cannot avoid truism when he
talks about swipes, to flourish like the
green bay tree under the regime of q
Thurston-W oolley law.
An examination of Thurston's CON
undrum for the feeble minded" shows
that It contains some interesting and
delicate phrasing, proving beyond
doubt that prohibition is a good thing
for Hawaii.
He says with convincing logic that
It would be quite silly to catalog n
rattlesnake us II domestic animal. be-
cause its skin is sometimes used to
make ladies' belts and its liver is
"tried out" to make snake OIL for
warts and rheumatism"
This is the first time that warts
and rheumatism have figured In the
problem of prohibition. but consti-
tute an unanswerable argument to
Bishop Restarick in this "conundrum
for the feeble minded" The conun-
drum becomes abstruse and highly
technical when 'Thurston dwells on
the tried out liver. =
Incidentally, arsenic is used to
bleach the compilations OF certain
ladies' AYERS Thurston.
What can the anti-prohibitionists
say to thate--PerhapS Woolley will
have some slides made of ladies with
arsenic compilations to be thrown on
the screen in the Woolley crusade.
Another conclusion is that IA cart
load OF scrap irona-is not a proper
source of water supply for the city
water works" There Is no evidence
that Marston Campbell has been con-
suited in this connection. 1t may be
true.
Thurston has something to say
about "tipsy parsons and Puritan rum
Jugs" and then dwells ON what he
calls the pure liquor fallacy." Thurs
toms Bafnum and Bailey prohibition
circus does not stop with the rattle
snake of which the ringmaster be-
trays such an intimate knowledge, fol-
he next brings a Bengal tiger and a
mongoose into the ring.
With Il studious regard for sclen-
tifc fact and an avoidance OF the ma.
ture fakirs ranks, Thurston declares
without the slightest qualification:
1.-THE mongoose is a sneaking an
noyance; but the tiger Is beast witt
claws and teeth, the embodiment OF
death and destruction, which must be
killed or Gagged before there can be
safety on the farm"
How can the anti-prohibitionists re
flute that?
The small farmer in Hawaii should
be thankful that he has the mongoos'
and not the Bengal tiger.
The conundrum for the feeble mind
ed coniures up memories of Alice II
Wonderland but is of sound scientific
value because of the light thrown OIL
the possibilities and habits of the rat
tlesnake.

One OF the Greatest Antiquarian Puz
zles in America Is in Rhode
Island.

In Toure park at Newport, r. l.,
stands an aged stone tower 1t is
round and is erected on rough pill
lars, capped by arches. No one to this
day knows who built it or when or for
what purpose.
Some antiquarians claim it was the
work of Left Erikson, the viking, and
that it was built nearly 500 years be
fore Columbus discovered America,
the Philadelphia Record says. Others
say it is a Scandinavian temple. erect
ed by heather Norsemen, and that it
is the only remaining proof that a
large Scandinavian settlement -four
ished in Rhode Island almost 1000
years ago.
Less romantic folks have said the
tower was built as windmill some
time in the seventeenth century. Not
only its origin but its nature is mys-
terry, and must always remain SO. Nor
is the round tower the only hint that
America may have been settled by
white men long before Columbus was
born. In fact. the early story of Amer
ica-the mound builders, the Mepi-
son pyramids, the traces of Morse civ
ilization-is perhaps greatest of all
historical mysteries.
The fact that in 1885 a skeleton. to
whose bones still chung fragments Of
what had apparently been Scandina-
Wan armor, had been found near Fall
River, Mass, combined with the mys
terry of the Newport round tower, tot
inspire Longfellow's great poem, The
Skeleton in Armor," which describes
the fight to the American wilderness
of a viking and princes daughter
and the building of the round tower as
their home.
Whether or not the round tower at
Newport really marks the ancient
American civilization, the Vinland
tales of the Scandinavians were stillf
told in Europe during Columbus time.
