WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER II. 1917

THE second birthday of the Princess victo-
iia Kawekiu Kaiulani Kalaninuiahilapalapa
Kaleiohawaii daughter of Her Royal High
ness Miriam Likelike and Hon. A. S. Cleg-
horn, was celebrated yesterday by a grand
luau at Waikiki
The occasion was honored hy the presence
OF His Majesty the King and large propor-
, tion of the persons most distinguished in Off
cial and social life in Honolulu, including di-
plomatic and consular representatives and
officers of the Limier and jamestown.
We expect that by the Mail Steamer City
Of Sydney, due here to morrow, advices will
be received from His Excellency the Minister
of Foreign Affairs, as to the progress of his
mission to the British Government. We look
forward to the result of his negotiations with
great interest, but entirely without apprehen-
sion. The character and abilities of our En-
voy and the well known friendly disposition
of Her Majesty's Government, combine to give
assurance that all questions at issue will be
settled in a manner consistent with the inter-
ests and honor of both countries.
BY q reference to the United States Debt
/ Statement, which we print among our foreign
news, it will be seen that the National Debt
was reduced during the month of August
/ SS, ,s69, ,53s.T5. The net amount of the reduc-
ton for the year ending September LIST, 1877,
was S39,7l2, 100, while for the preceding year
it was $40, ,626, 500 A Government which,
even in the hardest of hard times, can pay of
its debts at the rate of from thirty to forty
millions of dollars a year may be considered
| to be in a tolerably sound financial condition.
/ We hope none of our readers will fail TO
notice the communication we publish to-day
from correspondent on Maui, giving an ac-
count of the meeting held last Wednesday
evening at Wailuku, on behalf of the Hawaiian
Telegraph Company The Importance of this
enterprise TO the future development of this
country, seems TO US too evident to require
any heightened comment at our hands. We
are informed that some FIVE miles of tile line,
viz from Makawao to Haiku is already ac-
tually constructed. 1t is now proposed that
the same be Immediately extended via Kahu-
lui, Wailuku, and Waikapu to Lahaina. The
character of the men engaged in the enterprise
render it reasonably certain that the connec-
ton will be made with the latter place at nc
distant day. This being once successfully
accomplished, The question of ofconnecting Maui
ticular will become merely a question Of
time, and, in our opinion, not very long
time either. 1t is our intention at an early
day to refer to this subject more i'll detail.

During the Co1yIS ss hcld-over" Admins
stration of t1:d City Government, the intro
duction Of an ordinance in the Common
Council authorizing parties to establish gas
works, aud to lay pipes and mains i'll the
streets and alleys Of the city, Was matter
of weekly occurrence. If We remember
rightly, there was at one time no less than
four so-called companies contending for the
privilege Of erecting gas-worAs and laying
down pipes and mains in this city. After
the reform III the City Council, the business
did not cease. On the 11th of August, 1876,
the City Council passed two ORDINANCES, one
chcrtering the t'Colze Gaslight Company, "
and tho other the 's Consumers Gaslight
Company" and on Sept. new ordinances
were passed in relation to these COM
panies Is was suspected at the
time, nothing came of these Ordinances.
The City Council had wasted weeks III dis
cussing and amending them; md when the
privileges were voted to the companies"
nobody wanted to put in the capital, and
that was the end Of them. Some time ago,
an ordinance WIS introduced granting to
AlAH1oS S. Fnosr and EDWARD j. FROST, Of
Philadelphia, the franchise to establish gas
works and lay down gas pipes, mains, and
service pipes in the streets, alleys, and pub
lie grounds Of Chicago, which ordinance,
after several months, it is proposed to take
up this week aud dispose Of. Is not this
business pretty we'll exhausted? In the days
before the reform Of the City Government,
everybody understood the blackmail pur-
pose of these ordinances; but no such rea-
son can be supposed to exist under the new
Government; and with the ceasing Of the
reason for the ordinances, ought not the
ordinances also to stop? The City Council
las brevely and well managed its dealings
with the existing Gas Companies. 1t has
made IN immense saving in its expenditures
for gas. The Gas Companies have not only
reduced tho cost Of gas to the city, but the
West Side hns also reduced its price to pri-
rate consumers. The South Side Company
should also make a reduction to its pEiYato
consumers without further delay, and we
suppose it will do it. The city has shown
that, dealing with these Companies in the
right aud dirac: way, it can, whenever neces-
ssry, compel them to act fairly and justly
with the public. II the meantime, the lnai,-
ufact11re of new companies at the request Of
every spec1lctor who wants to have some
thing to sell might be omitted By this Coua-
Gil Tint kind of business, however sue
ccssful in olden times, has become stale, and
is unworthy OF the present Council. When
there are two or three such charters now
outstanding and unused, what is the need of

tive might well feel otherwise when the
question of resurning specie payments IN
gold alone was directly presented to him.
Of course, If the bill to remonctize silver
be defeated by veto or otherwise, the same
influences can defeat the repeal of the Re
sumption law, and thus the question OF a
double standard of gold and silver, or OF gold
exclusively, will be the governing one at the

Some Of the contributors to The Home de-
pars1ncnt Of TIE TRIBUNE have called atten-
tiono OF late to the Importance Of historical read
ing. They have been disposed to limit the dis
cussion by considerations Of woman's CAPACITIES
and tastes; hut the subject demands broader
treatment. Ignorance OF history is not peculiar
to tile women Of this country; the depriTa:ions
caused br it arc not SO keen1y felt by them as
by the men. The West is SO largely enyrosscd
in business that, rs I rule. the women have

stuck Of Information. How long is it
since tho achievements of HARRIET MsnT1SEAu,
CHARLES KINGSLEY, Lord MAcAuLAY and their
contemporaries were ringing in our ears3 How
long will it be again before the Life of CHARLES
SUMNER shall be on every fas lunablc table,
and unimportant anecdotes concerning him
furnish the staple OF conversation at every
esoteric tea-party? The knowledge that is
gathered from biographies Of eminent men is
not to bc 1eprcciated or Icspised, hut it is not
tho knowledge which is of most worth. 1t
should be acquired Us the supplement- and orna-
mcnt Of a thorough acquaintance with history,
not as tho basis Of 4 }itcral education.
The chief reason tor studying, history, aside
from the pure delight it affords when intc!li-
gently pursued, is the tendency Of knowledge
derived from this source to broaden human cx-
pericncc and syupat!.ies. History extends tho
vision OF the race indefinitely backward. The
man who las studied it faithfully, aud kept its
prominent facts in mind. is not the child OF to-
dar or of yesterday. bur Of all past tme Il tl,ou-
sand years are i'll his sight but as onc dar, and
one day Us a thousand. years. Such an one not
only leads larger life by reason OF his knowl-
edge. but he corrccts his experience daily,
hourly. almost every minute, by that OF tue
ages which have preceded him. he lifts his fuel
ings out OF the ruts which sclshncss uud scns11-
all1y have created for them, and places them
on higher plane and in 4 clearer light, Great
historians like G1EroS, MAcAULAY, GroTE, and

Whenever fraud is perpetrated, the first
instinct Of the community is to deprecate it
from moral point of view. We deplore
the dishonesty OF the fraud and the low
stage of morals that has allowed it to be-
como possible, and We assiduously study
how to raise the standard Of morals III The

be man who has occupied prominent
position in the religious world. has been a
Deacon in the Church or Superintendent in
the Sunday-school, we go still deeper into
the moralities, and are apt to Jump at the
conclusion that tho Church is growing
worldly and going to the dogs, md that there
is no hope for any ono when Deacons aud
sundny-school teachers go astray Tho
moral aspects Of frauds are certainly irnpor
tant, but they are not all Fraud has its
political economy as well as finance, and it
IS worthy Of study. Leaving out of consid-
eratlon the provisions Of tile Decalogue as
they apply TO commercial frauds, the
expense account Of forgerics, defal-
cations, and entertainments Is it re-
relates to honesty is absolutely startling.
1t amounts to henvy tax upon honest peo-
pie, which is imposed at stated times, the
assessment varying in different countries aud
being fearful]y onerous in this, and the col
1ections being made with promptncss and in

taxes. There are no back taxes. They never
appear on Supreme Court dockets, and there
nrc no decisions involving them in the law
reports. Every honest man pays them with

l1EB Is probably prepared to explain that. as
his clerks were too mitch engaged during the
campaign to attend to tic business OF the office,
it is now absolutely necessary to make the
County Treasury pay for such extra or night
work to make up for lost time in his service.
The taxpayers would not object to the payment
of reasonable amount toward getting LEES
office in readiness for his successor, but it has
an aspect barren Of even common dcccncy to
gouge the county out of the time wasted in
elcctionccring for him, and then extort the
money paid from the pockets OF the clerks who
earn it.
