We don't think Minister Willis can be
much blamed for declining to take part
in the celebration of Abrogation day. Mr..
Willis since he arrived in Honolulu has
been doing his best to restore monar-
chy whose overthrow this day was set
apart to celebrate. 1t would Lave IL
volved a good deal of humiliation to Mr..
Willis to march in a procession in honor
of the provisional government which he
invited in the name of the President
only few weeks ago to resign, and we
think Mr.. Willis was quite justified in
declining the invitation. He has been
humiliated enough already.

When Gov Tillman of South Carolina
made his estimate of the amount of
profit that would accrue to the state from
the sale of whiskey he failed to reckon
ON the fact that the militia would neces-
sarily be called out to enforce the law
and prevent the rumsellers and their
friends from mobbing his special agents
and the police. Since the law went into
effect in South Carolina by which the
Governor and his assistants were made
rumsellers, he has had trouble on his
hands most of the time. and now the city
of Charleston is in such an uproar that it
is expected that martial law will be de-
clared. Thus far the states conduct of
the liquor business does not seem to be
the success expected.

The death of George W. Childs will
not alter the policy of the Philadelphia
Public Ledger or lead to any change in
it's management. This was long ago
agreed upon between MI. Childs and the
late Anthony J. Drexel, and the will of
the latter provides for the purchase of
Mr.. Childs's interest in the Ledger by
the Drexel estate. In this way the four
children of Mr.. Drexel-John R. Drexel,
Mrs. John R. Fell, Anthony J. Drexel
and George W. Childs Drexel-will own
the paper absolutely. Its control will
go into the hands of the last named
Drexel, who was installed as publisher
of the Ledger in October. The compe-
tent editorial staff of the paper will not
be changed.

The value of a thorough knowledge of
some mechanical trade was forcibly urg-
ed upon the youths who are pupils of the
New York Trade School in an address by
Dr.. Depew. He told them that a college
education, however excellent, was not
enough to fit man to successfully battle
with the world, unless he had mastered
trade. A profession was all very we'll
but at this day a young man who had no
one to assist him found it very difficult
to get start. If he had a good trade,
he ould, by working at it half his time
earn enough to keep him going. But to
do this he must be a good mechanic.
Poor ones were the cause of low wages
While occasionally there would be an
hundred out of employment, careful
investigation would show that very few
were masters of their trade. DR.. Depew
in saying this, did not refer to exception
al periods, Ike the present when bust
ness of all kinds is almost at standstill,
bat to those slack periods that occur al
Hsest every year, when the men that are

pears to be much exercised because the
PRESS suggested the other day that
nothing would be gained by retiring the
present representative from the second
district. We should pay great Difference
to Mr. Morrison's opinion if he was
strictly impartial in this case, but the
fact that he hopes to be the beneficiary
of that retirement naturally creates a
suspicion that he has bias in this mat
ter. We believe that it is well recog-
nized rule that even the ablest and most
honorable men are not qualified to sit in
judgment on case in which they have
a personal interest.

Again has the unreliable fake sheet called
the Argus through the painful ignorance Of
its sO-called reporter, insnlted in contempt

Of the city and put words into the mouth of
prominent citizen who would be the last
man to utter them. The statement in the
Monday issue that j. G. Shattuck COM
pared the armOry to the saloons was an
attempt to make sensational plain state
ment that the beautiful armory building
should be so guarded that no question could
arise as to 1t being a first class place to
spend leisure hour. Such disgraceful
attacks, although able to do no harm coming
from such source, will only assist in caus-
ing the publishers to 20 deeper than $3.50 q
week, which they are said to have claimed to
be able to lose for year and still live to
pay the expenses of running this newsless
pamphlet. The citizens and business men
of Owosso were loud In their condemnation
Of this latest and the other blunders and have.
we believe, stopped their papers 10 such
an extent that the 400 gain within the

400. Despite the attacks on the armory it
will continue to be looked upon by all a.
