to government by wise politicians. Per.

keep in touch with the massed good
sense of the people. The capable poll.
ticians are quite the other way; they
keep their ear to the popular heart,
knowing what it beats for, and make

they are honest, than do men trained

outsider but will not consult him OF

totally overlooks the views of the man
in the street. But if he goes into office
he finds that he can't ignore this man
in the street, who, in the public affairs

Present Act Inadequate.


GAS to our present municipal act,
probably all agree that it is inadequate
and that it ought to be amended in i'm.
portant particulars, if not entirely sup
erseded by something better. The pres
ent law, as it has been made to work
out, gives us a mayor and secretary, at
an expense of four hundred dollars n
month each who have more to do than
they can afford to give the time to at
that rate of pay.
"But that is defect of secondary
Importance and one that could be easily
remedied The great trouble with our
municipality is that il is only half
baked institution. 1t is almost mis-.
use of terms to call ours n municipal
government. The city of Honolulu diff.
fers from, | suppose, every incorporated
city on the mainland in that it owns no
substantial amount of property, and
possesses the power neither 10 levy
taxes nor TO issue bonds. The city does
not own the waterworks, or the sewer

INAUGURATION OF IRON AGE
Authorities Differ as to the Time ard
Place of it's First lntroduct.o.i
to the World.

Some authorities incline to the
view that the iron age was inaugur-
ated In Asia or in Africa. The inves-
legations of recent years have pointed
to the conclusion that 1t was not
worked in Egyrs until the ninth CEN
tury before Christ, or in Libya until
45O B. c.; that the Semitic adopted its
use still later, and that it sas been
known in Uganda only within the
last five or six centuries. There are
Chinese records of date about four
centuries before Christ that mention
iron. Bronze weapons were employed
In China until about 700 A. D.
1t is thought that the metallurgy of
iron must have originated in Central
Europe. especially in Noricum, which
approximately represented modern
Austria and Bavaria. Only at Hall
stett and In Bosnia and Pennsylvania.
from which countries the Achaians
and Dorians are supposed to have mi
grated to Hellas. are found evidences
of gradual introduction of iron, at
first rs an ornament applied to the
bronze which 1t ultimately replaced.
Everywhere else iron was introduced
In no gradual fashion, a fact that
implies a foreign origin.
Meteoric iron was known in Egypt
In remote antiquity. but no doubt 1t
was worked as fints are worked, by
cutting or chipping, and was not
smelted. In other words. il was the
metallurgy. not the knowledge c, iron,
that originated In Central Europe.

Roman Heating System.

Like many other Roman houses that
have been unearthed in England. one
recently brought to light was heated
by system called "hypoeaust." The
entire basement was one big furnace,
from which flues ascended, built into
the walls. A wood fire was kept in
the basement, the fuel being fed in
from an outside annex, through an
arch in the wall. The house recently
dug out is in state OF excellent
preservation.
