But what about the G.. o. p,
the grand old Republican party,
that we have been told so often
would annex Hawaii whenever it
came into power2 Has all
that talk been given only
for a "stiff," as The Times Chap
on the Corner would say? Some
Of those who took it in good faith,
and cheered themselves hoarse
over the encouraging assurance.
are beginning to think they were
only being played for dupes.
They will probably one day form
the nucleus of a party in Hawaii,
and make their deceivers feel their
resentment. Our morning con-
temporary would produce another
interesting article by analys-
ing the public sentiment in
Hawaii upon annexation and
classifying its component ele-
ments. If it did this Intelligent
ly and honestly, the result would
make its party even more ridi'
culous than its disclosure, in the
article under review, of the slen-
der hopes it has of annexation
from all that can be discovered in
its favor in the public opinion OF
the United States.
The foregoing remarks are not
made in opposition to annexation
from this side, but in condemna-
ton of the deception hitherto
practised toward the people O
these islands, upon that question
by the party that is governing the
country.

DO SOMETHING.

Although this paper was among
the first to advocate a relaxing of
the quarantine on inter-island
commerce, it cannot condemn the
cautious conservatism of the
Board of Health in referring the
matter to a special committee. 1t
is we'll sometimes to err on the
safe side, and "A day or two more
or less will not make a great deal
of difference in this matter. What
we advocated was rather more
conservative than the resolution
of the Chamber of Commerce,
and, if the Board does not see its
way clear to comply fully with
the wishes of the business men,
something like the plan suggest
ed by the BULLETIN ought to be
adopted. That is, to have qua
rantine stations with fumigating
equipments established at the
principal outports, so as to make
assurance of safety doubly sure

AM ERICAN VIEWS.

An article IN the Advertiser rep
resents public sentiment in the
United States on the question of
Hawaiian annexation as being
rived so as to make lat least
three parties" Then it specially
describes four distinct parties on
the question in that country. This
little oddly in rhetoric is only
mentioned in passing. The four
parties actually described to rep
resent Eat least three" are as
follows:
The first would annex on
grounds of friendship, would take
in and keep warm the child Of
American philanthropy. The
second would annex peremptorily
on the ground that it was mani
fest destiny to do so, that the
commercial and naval needs of
America demand, and it would
pay little regard to the feelings of
the people whether they are an
n xationists or not. The third
takes a high moral stand, and
asks if We are "assimilated," if
we are not lapsing into Orien-
talism, and if we may not become
a sore spot in American politics.
A fourth party is in doubt about
the matter, and believes that
things will come out all right,
and that haste is not desirable.
According to the foregoing clas-
silica ton the first party is wolf
in sleeps clothing, which would
make Il foreign conquest, contrary
to pure American traditions, es-
tablishing a government with
out the consent of the governed, "
in the sacred name of
"philanthrophy." The second is
the Simon-pure lingo party, which
makes no bones of subjugating "a
feeble folk" for purely selfish
considerations. From the descrip-
ton given the third party it is
anti-annexation straight, whose
moral sensibilities recoil at the
notion of adopting the Asiatic
hordes-introduced for the bene
fit Of that philanthropically-pro-
pagated "kid" about which the
first party is solicitous" and
the native Hawaiian people
whom from its high moral
stand' the party in question, No.
B, regards as "niggers' or"i MINIS
who are proverbially held by it as
being at their best when dead.
As to the fourth party, composed

Timely Topics

Judge OSuSll Vi Odkldllu
recently gave a young married
woman some good advice when
he refused to grant her
divorce. The couple had been
married three years and were
quite young, but they evident
ly got along about as we'll as
most married people do. How
ever, the youngwoman thought
she ought to have a divorce
and filed a complaint against
her husband alleging cruelty.
The specific facts set forth
were that her husband fire.
quently slapped her, whether
playfully or not the complaint
does not state, and that once
he spoke Grossly to her. This,
however, was while the hus-
band was putting up a stove,
and therefore cannot be Won
dered at. On another occasion
the young wife says her huS-
band threatened her, but in
answer to the Judge she ex-
planned he had only told her
the proper thing to bring her
under subsection would be to
raise a family. But this poor
husbands greatest offenSe lay
in his feet. He had big ones
according to his wife, and on
one occasion he had the auda-
CITY to place them in her lap,
and she said, "he had his boots
off,"
In refusing to grant a divorce
on such trivial testimony Judge
Ogden gave the wife a little
fatherly lecture. You can
hardly expect the court to grant
you divorce upon such teSti-
mony. If we were to grant
you a divorce upon that show
ing there would not be a
couple in Oakland that would
not be entitled to divorce. 1t
is impossible to find human
nature that is ideally perfect.
There are many little imper-
fections that education and IS
ISOLATION will smooth off, and
married people must exercise
forbearance and patience. In
stead of widening the breach
close it up. A young couple
such as you are will find mar
ried life very happy existence
if you will return to your home
and not do just what you have
been doing heretofore"
That Oakland Judge had
some sense, indeed it is ap-
parent that his wisdom arose
from experience. 1t is a pity
there are not more like him. If
there were there would be
fewer divorces and more hap
py homes. What is home
without a mother-in-Iaw and
the privilege Of putting, your
feet on your wife's lap without
putting your boots on first.
All Of which reminds us of
another little story. By the
steamer Australia we have re-
ceived one of the largest con-
signments of hardware ever
landed on these fly SpeckS of
the Pacific. 1t comprises an
assortment of plated ware, ideal
coffee pots, three and five

The power plant OF S. D. Warren q

soon be used, after six years of idleness.
The building was erected in 1889, and
has accomm odations for twelve large
turbine wheels. 1t has not yet been used,
but the past summer the river has been
so extremely low that the need of more
power at Cumberland Mills has been
felt
Therefore this power plant Is now being
equipped with two Victor turbine wheels
of $50 horse power each, which will
operate 300 horse power, two. phase gen.

work is already we'll advanced. The
current will be conveyed on three num-
Der four bare copper wires, and will be
one of the heaviest and most dangerous
high voltage currents in Maine, if not
in the country.

by means of step up transformers will be
raised to 5000 volts. and it is almost I'M

CHRISTMAS AT THE NORTH SCHOOL
The Primary Scholars Had Six Christmas
Trees, Whole Barrel of Corn Balls
and Lots of Nuts and Candy.

There were four hundred happy chill
dren in the primary department. of the
North school yesterday afternoon. The
PRESS reporter knows because he saw
their beaming faces and their little hands
grasping big corn balls and bags of can
dy. The Christmas trees hung with
bright colored ribbons of candy strings
of pop corn and various other Christmas
attractions were beautiful.
1t was pleasant thing indeed to see
forty little boys and girls in their school
seats each munching big corn ball.
The movement started among the pri-
mary school teachers to have a special
Christmas celebration on this closing
day of the term before the holidays.
They got Prinoiapl Parmenter's consent
and then went ahead. There were in all
six Christmas trees, the teachers provid-
ing most Of the good things that were
hung upon them, though some of the
scholars brought contributions. 1t re-
quired just solid barrel of cornballs to
supply the school. In Miss Files's room,
there was a regular Christmas bouquet
| of oranges, candy, nuts, ETC., served on
plates to the little children by the teach
er and her friends
Miss Pennell, who has been in the
school ever since the present building
was erected, says this is the first such
general celebration that they have had in
her recollection. There have been be-
fore Christmas exercises, and once, Or
twice Christmas tree, but no such gen.
eral invitation of Santa Claus to the
| whole school. She said that it was most
certainly worth all the trouble, because
the children were so happy about it.
| They certainly looked jubilant as they
came out Of the building in single file,
still carrying and eating the big corn
balls and each having besides bag of
