THE INDUSTRIAL HOME.

On the first page of this issue we
publish the annual report of the
Committee of the Industrial Home,
and commend it to all of our
readers who are interested in pub
lie charities, and generally in the
work of saving and regenerating
the Hawaiian people. The report
shows the Home to be in pros
porous condition, though of course
far from self-supporting. It also
shows very clearly the usefulness,
nay more, the necessity, of an in
stitution of this kind. The object
of the foundation was in brief to
afford an opening and an honorable
occupation for girls who have been
educated at Kawaiahao and other
seminaries, and who, without mar
rying, gravitate to Honolulu. I'm
der the disintegrating conditions of
Hawaiian society, it is no wonder
if such girls do not at once find
niche in the world. They have
needs and wants created by educa-
ton, which cannot always be salts
fed in the narrow circle of the
country homes from which they
come, and wants unsatisfed pro-
duce a restlessness which is itself
an invitation to temptation. There
can be no doubt that the Indus
trial Home in providing a home
and suitable occupation for such
girls as these, meets a pressing
need, and that it is, and will be in
its degree, a power for good in the
community.
The report points out in general
terms, that an enlargement in the
enterprise is necessary to enable it
to meet more fully the demands
made upon it, but offers no sugges-
ton as to any method by which
such an expansion in the work can
be brought about. This is very
likely due to feeling of the hope
lessness of making at the present
juncture any further acquisitions
upon the depleted purses of the
charitable.

The Friend for August.

The chief feature of the August
number of this always valuable
periodical is DR.. n. B. Emerson's
retiring address to the Hawaiian
Mission Children's Society on the
Causes of the Decline of Hawaii
an Sports. All who did not have an
opportunity to hear the address
when delivered will do we'll to read
it now. 1t contains very clear
analysis of the causes leading to
the decay Of the old sports, and
shows that the missionaries-to
whom it is the fashion to ascribe
everything ad,-had nothing to
do with the case. In brief the an
cient sports were an integral part
of the customs of the old heather
society, and when the fabric of
that society crumbled, they per-
ished with it. Other special agen-
cies, such as the introduction of
the horse, of playing cards, ETC.,
played their part in determining
the result. 1t looks very probable
that playing cards, for instance,
had great deal more to do with
driving out the old games, than
the introduction of the Bible.
There are no politics in this
issue. The death of Alex. J. Cart
wright is referred to in fitting
terms. Reference is made in the
department of the Hawaiian Board
to the fact that the Morning Star
has to go 500 miles out of her way,
in order to conform to German
regulations in the South Pacific,
which certainly seems very oppres
sive.

IN THE HOUSE.

The Legislature was occupied a
good share of the day yesterday
with the passage of the bill relat-
ing to the Postal Savings Bank.
The object of the bill is mainly to
consolidate the laws on this sub
ject which are now spread at large
upon the books, adding at the
same time few needed amend
ments. We reproduce in full in
our legislative report the report of
the Finance Committee on the
bill, to which our readers are re-
ferred, as it will show at a glance
the precise nature of the changes
effected, in the form given to it by
the committee. Action on the bill
was finally deferred to await a
further report in the matter.
The mistake of the Minister of
Finance in issuing $40 silver certi-
ficates without authority of law
has led to the introduction of q
bill, authorizing the issue of notes
Of that denomination. The meas
ure was passed to engrossment

and will be read for the third time
on Saturday. The Act may be
well enough, but it can of course
have no effect in making the late
issue Of such certificates legal.
These will have to be recalled and
reissued if the law is to be strictly
complied with.
The discussion on the rate of in
terest to be paid to depositors in
the Postal Savings Bank brought
out some facts which show how
critical is the situation of the Gov
eminent. Rep. Nawahi, who is evil
dent very much taken with his own
abilities as a financier, proposes to
reduce the rate to three per cent.
as he objects to the Governments
paying high rates on the million or
so which he thinks is lying rust
ing in the Treasury. The member
from South Hilo thinks that II re-
duetion in the rate Will not cause a
withdrawal of deposits, because the
depositors will prefer the certainty
Of three per cent. without taxation
to any outside temptation. In view
of the great and growing excess of
Withdrawals, over deposits, the in
ereasing scarcity of gold and the
difficulty of negotiating Govern
ment bonds, it is of course folly to
talk about reducing the rate of in
terest. The question is whether it
will not be necessary to check with
drawals by the offer of higher
rate than has hitherto pre-
vailed. Under the present cir
cumstances the country cannot di-
vert any portion of its receipts to
the payment of the public debt,
and the only alternative is to de-
wise some means of stopping or
meeting the Withdrawals from the
Postal Savings Bank. The stu
alton is a grave one and deserves
the earnest consideration of our
ablest fnanciers.

forth the most fetching con-

A bill has been introduced in the house
10 grant a charter to the village of Brattle-
boro enabling it TO put in a system of pub

should pass the legislature without opposi-

opposition TO our present water supply, but
is purely measure of necessary self-de-
fence for the village. If the present water
works can be made adequate for the public
wants next year it will settle the matter
conclusively. Otherwise the village should
act in its corporate capacity. The reservoir
supply has reached a dangerously low point
this year, necessitating the cutting OFF Of
the use of the water wherever possible, as
for street sprinkling and elevator purposes,
and raising a serious question whether the
storage is sufficient in case of an extensive
fire. There is no occasion for alarm OF
hasty action, and assurance is given by
