1.-THE PAY AND THE OFFICE.


There has been quite contest in
the U. s. Senate as to the pay Of
the employees during the summer
vacation, or rather, until the organ
ization of the Fifty-third Congress.
The Republicans claimed that the
present officials should continue I'M
til the expiration of tie present
term, and the Democrats were de-
handing an election of their follow
ers. The problem has at last been
solved to the satisfaction of each
party, the Republicans agreeing to
the election, and the Democrats
agreeing to give up the pay. Thus
we have two sets of officials; one lot
at the trough, and the other patient
ly waiting for their payday

CCHARLES Il. WILDER.
Consul General Provisional Coy
eminent of the Hawaiian
Islands.

The Provisional Government of
Hawaii Is fortunate in having as
its representative at San Francisco
one of the brightest, brainest, and
most progressive of its younger
statesmen. Charles T. Wilder, the
present consul-general, is a native
of Geneva, Kings county, Illinois,
born there in 1856. When a mere
child his father, VIM. G. Wilder,
took him to the islands, where he
received his earlier education.
Later, he went to Miami univer-
sity, Ohio, where he graduated in
1884. He then went to the North
western university, at Evanston,
Illinois. In 1885 Mr.. Wilder re-
turned to the islands, and immedi-
ately went into business with his
father, VIM. G. Wilder, president
of the Wilder Steamship Company,
president Of the Kahului Railroad
Company, and of Wilder & Co.,
lumber and coal. He remained
there until 1898, in June of which
year he received from President
Cleveland his exequatur as consul
general of the Provisional govern
ment with full powers. Mr.. Wilder
is well fitted for his position, being
ambitious, and by his long resi-
dence in the islands, thoroughly
versed in their diplomatic lore.
The infusion of young blood into
the veins of the body polite is an
excellent augury of coming pros
perity to the islands.
The above extract is from the
Wave, published in San Francisco,
under date of August Goth. On
the front cover page of the same
issue appears splendid likeness
of Mr.. Wilder.

Don't Kill the Birds. "

MIR. EDITOR: There has been
considerable argument INDUCED in
amongst prominent local sports
men relative to the time at which
the close season for pheasant
shooting is now being ended. The
consensus of opinion is that the
season for pheasant-shooting opens
too early. In support of that side
of the case, I, through the medium
of your widely-circulated and
greatly-read journal, desire to bring
to general notice the fact that the
same question is agitating fellow
sportsmen in Oregon, as may be
seen by the following clipping
from the Pacific Field Sports of
August 26:
at is admitted by all that the
Oregon game law goes out OF effect
Just one month too early for pleas
ants. An Albany gentleman was
in Portland the other day, and,
while there, he saw string of over
twenty young China pheasants,
not one of which was any larger
than a robin. No man has the true
elements of an honorable hunter
who will kill such birds; and if he
hasn't sense enough not to do it,
the law should instruct him"
Personally, [ am strongly in
favor of such legislation as will
compel a close season until Octo-
Der 1st of each year.
Respectfully,
W. NJ. CUNNINGHAM.
