MORE SCHOOL BOOKS.

The school book question is causing
considerable argument just now, most
of it being against any change. 1t is a
matter that will cause trouble and an
noyance until the state takes. charge of
it, and then it may possibly cause more
trouble. There is an immense profit in
school books, and if any one system can
manage to capture those who select the
books it has good thing. It looks as
though the school superintendent ought
to be able to select a series of text
bo9ks that would not need to be discard
ed every two or three years. OF making
many books there is surely no end, and
this applies with extra force to school
books. Our school superintendent
from this vast lot ought to be able to
select a good lot, so that no change
would be required for years. We do not
wish to impugn their motives, but we
feel positive that if there was not money
in it for someone the text books would
not be changed so often, if at all.
The great trouble with all branches of
the government from the inspectors of
armor plate to the inspectors of school
books, is that there must be rake-off
for everybody, and those who fill the
contracts for the government always al
low, as part of the cost and expenses of
SO doing, a certain amount of grease
needed to make the machines run
smoothly. If our present system of
school books is not satisfactory, that
fact ought to have been discovered be-
fore it was adopted. 1t would be inter-
esting reading to have an examination
into the methods by which the books
are selected for the state, and then pub
Iish IT.

Portland is having a regular parrot
and monkey time over the attempt made
by the city council to raise money by a
system of licenses. The scheme would
work all right, but every business man
thinks he is getting the worst of it, and
that the other fellow ought to do the
paying. That seems to be the great
trouble with local as we'll as national
taxation. 1t is hard to suit the man
that has the bill TO pay.

The fame of Napoleon has suddenly
been renewed. Magazines, newspapers
and periodical are all filed with him,
and it is really astonishing to learn how
nice, mild and clever he really was. 1t
seems that all previous accounts of the
great soldier were false, and that he was
really nearly perfect; or at least, as By
ron said, GAS mild hammered man as
ever scuttled ship or cut a throat (;
with the true breeding of gentleman. -

The magazines are not only rivaling
one another in their effort to take the
wire edges of the history of Napoleon,
but they are also engaged in proving
that Edgar Allen Poe was q half brother
of Neal Dow and never took drink in
his brief life. It is to be hoped that
these scribblers will let up before they
destroy all preconceived ideas of the
great and illustrious people who have
gone before.

A Correction.

Mr.. EDITOR: In reference to a
reported interview with me by a
Bulletin reporter, l would state
with all due respect to the Ameri-
can League and the Schuetzen
Club, that I did not use that
threadbare expression, family COM
pact" l am not in the habit of
speaking in a disrespectful manner
of those opposed to my ideas-po-
litical or otherwise. The Schuetzen
Club certainly did appoint COM
mittee of two for the purpose of re-
questing an interview with SINH
lar committee from the American
League on special business propo-
sitions, and reporting back to the
Club for final action. Neither Club
nor League expects to absorb each
other. But, in the future as in the
past, both organizations will, no
doubt, continue to support the
Government through thick and
thin-each organization using its
own methods.

The Leagues Say.

Mr.. EDITOR - Your article of
this morning anent rumor of nup-
tails of the American League and
Schuetzen Verein was surprise
and shock to the undersigned.
The central thought of your col
umn was that the Schuetzen Verein
could be bamboozled or sheenani-
gained. The possibility of the Ve-
rein's intellectual giants being
worsted in a transaction with US is
too hattering, entirely. There are
statesmen in the Verein. The re-
suits they have achieved proves the
assertion. They stand so we'll in
the community, are so strong nu-
merically, and so powerful at court
that the idea Of the League pre-
senting commissioners who could
cope with them is really, don't you
know, far-fetched.

CORRESPONDENCE.
A Member of the Schuetzen Club
Claims a Misconstruction.

Mr.. EDITOR The ADVERTISER
and the Star are in quandary In
reference to the amalgamation or
coalition of the American League.
The two papers are misinformed as
to the real object in view. An out
line of the incident which brought
about the controversy is az follows
Since the masquerade ball of the
Schuetzen Club, discussion arose
between prominent members of both
clubs as to the feasibility of acting
upon special matters in joint COM
mittee, and a committee OF two
were appointed from each club.
AS a member of the Schuetzen
Club, I can emphatically state that
it will not consolidate under any
circumstances whatever, but will
meet the League halfway on ques-
tions appertaining to the prosperity
and happiness of its members, and
then report to their respective clubs
of such transaction for adoption or
rejection.
Furthermore, the motto of the
Schuetzen Club will be its honor
and prestige" of transacting bust
ness aboveboard in the future as In
the past, and not to allow any ma
chine politics or "Boss Buckley
ism" to crop up in its sanctum
sanctorum.

Pleas for Justice and Tax Payers

Mr.. EDITOR: Referring to the
letters published in the Star last
evening over the nom de plume OF
Community Interests" L would
like to correct some of the state
ments made. First, instead of the
Honolulu Iron Works being the
lowest bidder for the whole plant
erected, their bid was $40, 900, or SO
per cent, higher than the lowest
bidder; and for the piping alone,
they were 10 per cent. higher than
the lowest bidder.
We would have been very glad
to see the work go to the home
foundry if they had been the low
est bidder and could have per-
formed the work +; but it is of 81 Oh
a nature that they are incapable of
manufacturing the material in this
country; in fact, the majority of
the plant, if awarded to them, was
to have been purchased in the
United States, with, perhaps, the
exception of the boiler, few cast
ings and the smokestack; and
under the circumstances it would
not have given employment to a
larger number of Honolulu men
than any firm that receives the
contract will be obliged to employ.
Respectfully.

Neither overSkirts nor draperieS
have secured anything but the most
tleeting and tickle favor, and many
more skirts are plain than trimmed.
All fabrics that are distinctiVely
beautiful in themselves-and the
variety of these is legion this sea
son-are considered much smarter
without any trimming on the skirt;
but the elaboration of the cOrSage
makes up for the severity of the
skirt. Often a different fabric is
introduced in the bodice. For
example, a black crepon has tn
whole front of the round bodice of
satin the color of the heart of an
American Beauty rose, overlaid
with black lace wrought with Jets
and paillettes. Great bows of plain
Brussels net give fullneSs on the
shoulders and are fastened by
Rhinestone buckles on the stock
collar of satin. The gigot sleeves
of the crepon fit the lower part of
the arm closely and turn back from
the hand in pointed cuff all as
severely plain as the skirt. Other
light crepons have both front and
back of the bodice of fancy silk
harmonizing, not contrasting
which is laid in three box plaitS
from throat to waist, the plaits be-
ing trimmed with heavy antique
embroidery or lace.
