STEWARDS AMENDMENT.

Senator Stewart has introduced
a resolution into the United States
Senate to amend the Constitution
by making an incumbent of the
presidential office ineligible for re-
election until four years have
elapsed after The expiration of his
term. The object of this amend
ment is to prevent the use of the
presidential patronage tie secure a
reelection.
There can be no doubt that this
amendment would have salutary
effect in checking the abuse of the
appointing power. At the same
time, it would not really dispose of
the evil. If patronage could no
longer be used for the benefit of
a single candidate, it would be
manipulated for the advantage of
the party as much as ever. From
the standpoint of the public, which
desires an honest and efficient ad-
ministration of government offices,
it is of comparatively little conse-
quence whether the appointing
power is abused in the interest of
an individual or a party.
In any case there is little likeli-
hood that the resolution will ever
come to anything. The arguments
for and against it are so evenly bal
anced as to make it impossible for
the measure to overcome the we'll
grounded conservatism which re-
sists any change in the constitution

In this journal, one day last
week, was an editorial in
which Senator Fair was quoted
as having asked why people
of Honolulu did not cultivate
something more useful than
the monkeypod p
The Senator has not been
here during the dry season
and knows nothing of the
trials and tribulations of the
fruit, rice and taro growers
during the months when it is
as hard to get water as to
bring tears to the eyes of the
Kamehameha statue at the
government building. He
had not been informed that we
have only a semi-annual water
system that supplies water, on
ly when the it rains sufficient to
fill the reservoir.
Ifany one had given Senator
Fair this information he would,
in all probability, have said
} that the evil could be remedied
by using Aermotors--he knows
! what magnificent results have
been achieved by their use in
California.
We haven't said a word
about the Aermotor for ten
months because we wanted to
: devote the space to other
things part of the time and
during the past few months we
\ have been getting our semi
annual down-pour of rain and
! there's been water enough
without using artificial means
to procure it. But now thai
I the Indications point to dry
: weather, Aermotors must be
brought into use-we say
Il Aermoprs because it is the
Aermotor that is the recogniz
]; ed windmill of the age.
A taFo grower out Palams
way told us that he saved three
thousand dollars worth of tart
by the use of an Aermoto
last year-saved that mucl
Q money by being able to irri
!. gate hiStaro. His neighbor-
a Chinaman-had no Aermoto
. and he lost his taro. This i
not a romance but a fact. You
:, can see the man on the stree
any day and he will tell 20,
in Just those words.
We've put up Aermotor.
7 on nearly all the islands ane
: in every instance satisfaction
j; has been given. If the mill:
work we'll elsewhere they will
work we'll in your yard, or
q a your plantation Or cattle ranch
If you ask anyone connected
n with Lunalilo Home if the
Aermotor pumps plenty o
water you will get the sam,
affirmative reply in every in
stance. If you will ask the
owner of an Aermotor if h
, ever saw a windmill that work
! ed as easy, and pumped a!
' much water in the same tim,
he will probably say "No~
Last March we told you il
the columns of the Bulletin no

Harvard Requirements and the Washington
High School.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
In answer to the complaints Of competent
judges" living in Washington who state that
''the public schools here are unable to prepare
students for the Harvard admission examina-
tons Mr.. Bodies simply states the fact that
''these requirements are readily met by high
schools of the best grade in various parts Of the
country"
1t seems to me that the answer which Mr.. BIS
official duty required Of him, and which was
the most natural one to make, should furnish
no occasion for censure Of the secretary or for
criticism Of the methods of the university.
The discussion Of the curriculum of our high
schools or the purpose Of our system OF public
instruction Is not germane to the question. We
are simply to take the schools We find them,
or as Mr.. Bolles finds them, be the system true
or false.
II any are to suffer from the popular disap-
pointment or indignation fair play would not
point TO Mr.. Bolles or to Harvard University,
but TO the competent judges" Of Washington,
II the charges are false, or to the school board,
il they be true.
1t is conceded that the Harvard admission ex-
aminations are difficult, and purposely so; but
this would seem to be q matter entirely Of their
own concern, and not subject Of great public
interest. GEO. r. SrETsoN.
THE STAR did not criticise the Harvard
admission requirements or the methods
Of that great institution of learning.
Ii appears that somebody wrote from Washing-
ton to the secretary Of Harvard that our public
schools do not prepare students to pass the
admission examinations for Harvard. The sec
Rotary thereupon wrote to Senator Gallinger, q
memi o. Of our District committee, informing
him ..lnat competent judges in Washington are
dissatihed with the present school requirements
in the District, the thing alleged to be lacking
being preparation to pass the Harvard exami-
nations. A congressional investigation Of the
public schools upon this charge is to be bad.
The question naturally arises whether the OBJ
ject Of the public schools il such that alleged
omission TO supply students with the precise
information which Harvard requires for ad-
mission can fairly be imputed TO them rs q
fault deserving investigation, oensure and cor
rection. This question TEE STAB discussed
and upon it reached Q negative conciusion.-
