The appearance OF the Rev. R. j.
Cook, u. d., OF Athens, Tenn, o colored

demonstration. He started out with
tho proposition that thirty years ago 1t
would not have been thought possible
for man OF his color to stand before
such an audience and discuss the sub
ject of education. He said he WAS not
concerned in his ancestry, but was most
concerned In where he was going. The
address produced tremendous sensa.
ton.

was made in an address by DR.. Marlin,
a Presbyterian minister of Chicago who
spoke on Christian citizenship. he
said that municipal affairs st the South
were In most instances we'll and
honestly conducted.
The North, he said, must look to the
South for help In the direction of
reform. The pictures he drew of the
corruption OF Chicago were received
with great applause and when he ap-
pealed to the young Methodists to do
their full duty as citizens OF the greatest
country upon which the sun shines he

ing the schools OF the country and
has, with words Of advice and COM
mendation and sometimes of s we're
criticism given stimulus to the
teachers and made them live and
work up to the idea that neglect
and Indifference would be at dis
count when Atkinson is coming"
The retiring official can look
back on his work with pride. We
have no doubt that the Board OF
Education will endeavor to retain
him in the services of the govern
ment, but we are selfish enough to
hope that he will 60 back to his old
calling as journalist. In that
field he has always been foeman
worthy Of our steel-and we miss
him sorely.
The following correspondence in
regard to Mr.. Atkinson's resignation
has passed between him and the
Board of Education:
To THE PRESIDENT AND MEMBERS OF
THE BOARD OF EDUCATION
Ladies and Gentlemen:
L find myself compelled to ask you
to relieve me of my present position
as Inspector General of Schools. l
am no longer physically fitted for
its duties. / have felt this for
long time. If can serve the Board
in some capacity where | shall be
able to remain in Honolulu or very
rarely be SEM away, l shall be
happy to do so.

during the past eight years, that l
found the schools in poor condition
and that l leave them far better
than they were when | took charge

Thankin 6 you for the uniform
kindness and confidence shown to
me during my term OF Office, l
remain,
LOUIS ldlJulully,
ALATAU T. ATKINSON.
Inspector General of Schools.
In response to the above letter
the Board passed the following reso-
lutions:
Resolved-That the Board of
Education accepts, with regret, the
resignation, dated October 20, 1895,
rendered by Mr.. A. T. Atkinson of
his office Of Inspector-General of
Schools, and that the same shall
take effect on 3lst of December of
the present year.
Resolved-That this Board place
on record it's high appreciation of
his eminent services to the cause of
education during the past eight
years, and of the untiring energy,
executive ability and good Judgment
which he has shown in the discharge
of his Office.
Resolved-That a copy OF these
resolutions be furnished to Mr.. At
kinson.
By order of the Board OF Educa-
ton. john f. SooTT, Sec.
Mr.. Henry S. Townsend, the prin-
oipal OF Lahainaluna, has been
appointed Inspector-General of
Schools. He will probably be sue
ceeded at Lahainaluna by one of the
numerous Abbotts of Armenia fame,
if it is not decided to abandon that
school, which it seems has outlived
its usefulness.

4 Convert to Protection.

The Volga, S. OAK, Tribune is an
Independent paper, politically whose
editor, 7. w. Bishop, has never been
accused of harboring prejudice in
favor Of the republican party. There
fore, it is significant when he says:
ut SENS to us we have had quite a
sufficiency Of low tariff and low
prices. While we are raising the
lagest crops the world ever saw, we
can't pay our debts; while We have
more gold and silver than any other
nation on earth, we haven't cent in
our pockets.
This writer has had two experien-
ces of this kind during his lifetime
once in the fifties and the present
time. In the fifties there were no
prices for any product and a good
able-bodied man was glad to get 70
cents per day, and the same state Of
affairs exists to day.
We are a great country, but we
don't make our own laws-that is for
our own benefit. Our laws are made
for John Bull and his satellites in
Wall Street.
1t is time to call a halt-a halt long
enough to give these matters a little
thought, at least.
For ourselves from this on we shall
be found fighting for protection and
high prices for every thing we have
and we have everything"

An Infallible Cure.

Milwaukee Sentinel: Secretary
Carlisle was an enthusiastic free
coinage man. Some of his finest
bursts OF eloquence were devoted to
castigating the republicans for their
wicked hostility to silver and their
unfllial treatment of the dollar OF the
daddies. He went into Mr.. Cleve-
lands cabinet, and, in a little while,
he saw that he had been mistaken,
and, as The Atlanta Constitution OBJ
serves, he and John Sherman now
stand on the same platform as far as
the currency is concerned.
Hoke Smith, Of Georgia, used to
harrow up the feelings of the 'scrack-
ers" in that state by telling them how
the republicans demonetized silver,
and how they were being impover-
ished and wronged by the failure Of
the government to provide for the
free and unlimited coinage of that
metal. He went into Mr.. Cleveland's
cabinet, and he was speedily trans
formed into an enthusiastic gold bug.
Mr.. Herbert, of Alabama, was a
vehement champion of free coinage.
He, too, like Mr.. Carlisle, harbored
an implacable resentment against
republicans for having made gold
the standard of value and restricted
silver coinage. Mr.. Herbert went
into Mr.. Cleveland's cabinet, and To-,
a change, mystic, wonderful, has
come over his opinions. He now
scorns silver, that pale and common
drudge, and is gallant champion of
the gold standard.
In congress, when the republicans
were in power, Mr.. Wilson, Of West
Virginia, used to vote for free and
unlimited silver coinage. He went
into Mr.. Cleveland's cabinet, and now
his mind is opened to the error of his
former opinions. He has not yet
taken the stump to make proselytes
for honest money among the West
Nirginians, but he has communicated
the fact to the public that he is no
longer in favor of free coinage.
We do not know just how much
time is required to convert free
coinage democrat into gold man
after he is given a place in the cab
met, hut, even it We're to take a full
month, the president has time, before
the expiration Of his term, to put
most of the leading democrats in
congress through the process. 1t
would he a great thing for such men
as Senator Jones Of Arkansas Morgan
Of Alabama, Voorhees, Of Indiana,
Blackburn of Kentucky, Vest Of Mis-
souri,, etc. Their cases are apparently
not now amy more desperate than
were those Of the gentlemen who
have already taken the cure with
such excellent results.
