But to the relative»
ami friends of the men who were dying

the publication—charged to Col. Theo-

more for the welfare of the men who

War department offi
cials know this; and that is why they
started to bring Shafter’s men home so
quickly. It is perhaps, fortunate lor the
men wnose name» were attache«! to the
Santiago "louml robin” that the war is
about over. The public reprimand given

Honolulu.
The chief city of the Hawaiian Islands
is about to become an American city.
While the rights of the natives will be
thoroughly respected and guarded at
every point, the city in its external as
pool will find it much to its advantage to
put itself on the plane with American
cities. It lies in the lines of new routes
of travel and may easily be made as at
tractive a place of resort as can be found
along the shores of the Mediterranean.
Whatever nature can do has been done
for Honolulu, Its climate in a« nearly
perfect as can Im found on the globe,
The sea bie.*ze impart» to the afternoon
and evening a sense of comfort rarely
found in the tropics, A« it stands now
in its somewhat primitive condition, it
is h place that visitors speak of |an the
scene of the liappieMt days in their lives.
Being now on the route from San I* rancis-
co to Manila.it w ill he expected to present
all the elements of civilization that are
round in European and American cities.
Broad, well lighted Streets for business,
boulevards for pleasure driving, plazas
for children Io romp in, public gardens
for general resort, will prove profitable
investments. It is not every city that
nature has endowed hm it has this island
in the Pacific, and it now only remains
for human enterprise to complete what
nature has designed.
it is a iiuittvd by all parties that the
construed« n of the Nicaragua canal will
lie an inevitable result of the acquisi
tion of (he Philippine island«. Ibis
American canal will so shorten the route
from the Eastern Atlantic that the trade
ami travel that now goes east through
the Suez <*annI will come west through
the Nicaragua canal. It is safe to say
that no steamer pastiing the Nicaragua
canal w dl fail to take 111 the Hawaiian
islands. \ cablegram from Pekin under
the date of A ugust 8, says that the con
struction of the Nicaragua canal is con-
■Idered a necessity by all the Anglo-Sax
ons in China. This means that the
shortened highway of commerce will
concentrate the trade of the far E tat in-
to American hands
I'he C oin mission that !» now in this
city, invested with authority to form a
plan oi government for the ndandft, will
aim to bring the local government into
harmony with the \merman institutions
with as little friction as ¡»ossible with
the habits and customs of the people.
The commission will insist, however, up
on a plan that will place the islands in
line witli other American commuiiitie».
It will l»e for the interest* of property
holders in Honolulu to fall in with the

W ar is not only the great corrector of
enormous times and decider of duaty
and old titles, but the gieat revealer of
character. Habits and views of life,
built up by the alow growth of years,
war discovers iu a day. Long iraiuiug
ami tradition of the American navy
brought forth in a night Manila and in
an hour Santiago. The heights of San
Juan un«i this fresh Mtoiyeof but yester*
day from Malate are only the harvest
for winch American valor lias set exam
ples and American statesmanship has
laid down precept« and impoeed counsel

So it is with our mechanical excellence.
The victories of our ships are triumphs
ot the armor plant, the ordnance fact
ory, the iron works, as much as oi the
men who used the product 111 the day of
supreme tiial. Dewey and Hobson are
no more heroes than Scott, who built
the Oregon, or Sampson, whose patience
and industry made our oiduance uncon
querable.
Processes of manufacture,
details of electric manipulation, studied
pre« ision ol aim and coolness under tire,
even inddlerence 10 death and decision
in action at tlie critical moment, are all
accurate reflections of the American
cliaiacter. ln»iantaneoiiH though their
manifestation, long and painstaking
