ct would seem that Rudyard Kipl-
ing was endowed with prophetic
vision of the. man Woodrow Wilson,
when the great writer penned these
verses. The poem is of an advisory
nature, especially to be considered at
this time.-Ed)
If you can keep your head when all
about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on
you;
If you can wait and not be tired by
waiting,
If you can trust yourself when all
men doubt you,
But make allowances for their doubt
ing, too;
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to
And yet don't look too good, nor talk
too wise;
If you can dream-aad not make
dreams your master;
II you can think-and not make
thoughts your aim;
II you can meet with Triumph and
Disaster
And treat those two imposters just
the same;
II you can bear to hear the truth
you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make trap of
fools,
Or watch the things you gave your
life to, broken,
And stoop and build them up with
WORKOUT tools;
If you can talk with crowds and keep
your virtue,
Or walk with kings-nor lose the
common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends
can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none
too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds worth of distances
run,
Yours is the Earth and everythi lg
that's in it,
And-which is more-you'll be
Man, my son.
-Rudyard Kip1ing.

Why Spain Laos Behind.

In thousands of villages and small
towns in the interior OF Spain no one
knows how to read or write. There
are in Spain 10000 rural villages with.
out schools of any kind and many
thousands which can be reached only
by bride path, there being no high
roads or railway communication Of
any kind. Attendance at board schools
is voluntary, not obligatory. Seventy
six per cent. of the children in Spain
are illiterate, and this is especially
noticeable in the capital

WAR WILL INCREASE FARMERS
WAGES.

Half billion dollars added to crop
values is one effect of war with
Mexico with which the grain and
packing interests of Chicago are con
cerned, the estimate being based on
the effect of the Spanish war-declar-
ed on April q, 1898.
A report reviewing the business
year and the effect of war said:
"The farm price of corn, as indi-
Gated December /, 1898, averages 2S.7
cents per bushel, against 1858 cents
last year; that of oats 25.6 cents,
against PIP cents last year; that of
barley Ala cents, against 37.7 cents
last year; that of rye 46.3 cents,
against 44.7 cents last year; that of
buckwheat 45!0 cents, against AL
cents last year; that of potatoes Ala
cents, against SAT cents officially
against $6.12 last year. The
estimated farm value of the principal
crops, comprising wheat, corn, oats,
barley, rye and potatoes, as computed
by the United States department of
agriculture, was $1,643, ,24O, as
against $1,6O6,O1O, 365 in 1897 and ST.
426,S74,513 in 1896"
The financial requirements for the
Spanish war were referred to thus:
"A war loan of $200,0O0,00O hurried
ly raised, and that from our town citi-
zens. without causing the slightest
economic disturbance, was simply
wonderful 1t astonished the great
powers of the world and was a
splendid commentary upon our com
mercial and industrial resources as
we'll as upon American citizenship.
Let it be remembered that 3 per cent.
bonds issued at par for this loan COM
manded a premium of 8 per cent
Such a national credit has never be-
fore been written across the pages of
history Every business enterprise
was aroused by this magnificent DEM
onstration; and commercial expecta-
tons, more or less uncertain, grew

So much for tho status Of the Mahuka site.
known down to dollars and cents and the way
is clear for Congress to appropriate the funds.
1t is right here that the Sitc-ShftcrS are get
ting busy. They are declaring that Congress
will not pass the enlarged appropriation.
TO these people, to all who are apprrhensivc
Of Congresses attitude it may be stated that the
good faith of Congress n now bound up in the
completion of the Mahuka site proceedings. At
great cost and at considerable sacrifice that pOr-
ton of the business district on and around the
site has planned removing, rebuilding, rcadiust-
ing. In fact, it is not too much to say that for
years past the entire business section has felt the
influnce of this decision of the federal govern
mcnt to erect the federal building on the Ma
huka site.
Tn good faith the federal government has set
tied upon this site-and as matter Of law it
makes no difference that the original apprOpria-
.tion is now found too small
On March ., 1911, the United States district
court here handed down a notable decision deal
ing with this site. The decision need be referred
to only in passing as decision on a demurrer.
That decision written, we believe, by Judge Rob
ertson, quotes from a decision of the supreme
court of the United States as follows:
"CoRgress intended that compensation should
follop the condemnation proceedings m crc,y
case, and the omission to make an appropriations
in adrdnce to pay the damages assessed for tad'-
ing the property constitutes no bar to such pro-
ceedhigs, for the faith of the government is al
seags a guaranty for that payment"
5 Can language be stronger, clearer, more per-
tinent than that?
The Mahuka site is intrenched in good sense,
in good faith, in sound law. The, people of Ho-
nolulu should stand by it. and stand by the only.
course that promises Honolulu afederal build
ing within any reasonable time.
District Attorney McCarn is reported to be
in favor of reopening the question of building
site We believe that if the commercial Organi-
zations,s the business interests and the people
generally stand together, the district attorney
will join with them in urging early action along
the sane and logical course-the retention of the
Mahuka site, the appropriation of the necessary
funds.

Once more the SteShifters are busy!
They arc trying to work up sentiment to Sc
cure change in the federal building site, famil-
iarly known as the Mahuka site.
What are the people Of Honolulu going to do
about it?
Will they permit another long and irritating
controversy over this site? Will they promote
another needless and fIpitIess quarrel? viii
they allow new and Troublesome complications
10 arise? Will they rush into new dissensions?
liz the people and the business interests of
Honolulu adopt this course, Honolulu might as
well say goodbye to progress, bid farewell to
any speedy, any satisfactory settlement-and
wait ten years longer FOR the federal building
that grows more necessary every month.
OrWill the growing spirit of unity, Of coop
Grafton, that has swept through the territory
turing the past year hold together the people of
Honolulu in concerted action to win the federal
building on the Mahuka site?
It is hardly necessary again to repeat the de-
iails~of the situation Since the year 1905 Ho-
noIulu has been trying to get federal building
tn April, 1907, businessmen decided upon the
Nahuka site. And from that time to this, seven
Years, Honolulu has been proceeding step by
step to the point where the Mahuka site is avail
able through condemnation and Congress is
preparing to appropriate all the necessary
money. i.
The financial status may be stated briefly.
The site, including the original site purchased,
the money raised for the Bishop street extern
s'on, and the $4,000 of condemnation awards,
viii cost the government approximately $685.
