Journalistic Etiquette.

MR.. EDITOR:-Therei is undoubtedly
a journalistic etiquette. Every man has
a right to address a paper, and the edi-
tor has also an undoubted right to re-
fuse to publish The matter in the COM
munication may be of such a character
that the editor in his judgment, has a
perfect right to refuse it. That is the
editors prerogative. Buff he accepts
a mans cOmmunicatiOn-he should
give him his space honestly and not put
a head" on to his letter of darisiYe
character Communications must be
treated as honest, be they strong or
be they weak. and because the cOmmu-
nicatiOn is unpleasant to the paper
there is no reason to belittle it in the
heading. Burn it as much as you like
in your editorial columns, but do be
honest in your giving your writer a
chance.
The attack upon Mr.. Lansing in the
Star was utterly uncalled for. Mr.. Lam
sing gave a clear story. The Star may
not have agreed with him, and the Star
may. in company with other papers,
have objected to the course of the Board
of Health, but that by no means author
lied such q viTulent personal attack.
Mr.. Lansing is an official who serves
without pay, does his duty as an intel
ligent man. and it has been a shock to
the community in which he is so highly
respected to see honest views treated
in the style that the Star has been
pleased to use. FAIR PLAY.

HIGH school FEES

In the Board Of Education report II
is stated, page 81, that lit was the ex-
pectation of those who first planned
the High School to abolish tuition fees
and make it free to all. 1t was after
ward. however, decided TO leave this
question. on which widely differ mt
views are held, to be decided by the
Legislature"
Though almost through the session,
not thing has been done by the i gis-
Iature in this matter Yet it is one
which troubles a number of very wor-
thy people. If the High School is to be
a pay school there should be no favor
itism shown, there should not be those
who pay for the privilege and those
who don't All should pay alike. But
from our point of view it is illogical to
support with public funds an institu-
ton and then tax the people second
time for entering it. The cost of books
is quite enough for poor man to sup
ply without asking him to pay fifty
cents a week for every child that he
has at the school. The free school is
the .buIwark of the United States-it
must be the buIwark OF the Republic OF
Hawaii!

Although Mr.. Jones is not mis-
sionary" or the son Of a missionary"
he is none the less a missionary-wi
out the quotation marks. The new Pa
lama Chapel is another monument to
the quiet but constant Christian work
that is being carried on in these Isl
ands; it is one Of the many monuments
to the teachings of the old missionary
fathers and mothers. If some Of the
people of American churches were as
free with their money as they are with
their criticism, if they were as willing
to follow more closely their religious
tenets and accompany their liberal crit
icism with equally liberal financial as
sistance for Christian work the laborers
in foreign fields would have less reason
to cogitate upon the shortcomings Of
their fellow men.

THOSE SENATORIAL MISTAKES.

When Minister Damon very properly
stated that Senator McCandless had OPP
posed the refunding proposition, the
Senator retaIiated with the remark that
he had always been in favor of refund
ing. but he had never found PROPOSE
ton that suited him until the last one
came up. And yet the McCandless reso-
luton. for which the Senator and his
few colleagues fought, bled and died,
provided for three per cent discount
and a two per cent commission. Won
derfuI change OF heart this. Why don't
the Senators stand by their colors
Simply because they have seen their
horrible mistake and are willing to &C
cept anything TO save themselves. An
other beautiful mistake made by the
Senators is the elimination of the an
nexation feature. which provided that
the bonds could be taken up at any
time on the payment of a five per cent
premium. They now propose to tie up
the bonds for another twenty-five years,

land, move that was viewed with SEN
atoriaI horror and amazement when
Minister Damon's bills were first
brought up.
The Senators tried to put the respOn-
sibiIity of possible failure to refund on
the shoulders of the Minister of Fin
ance because he stated that the EXecu-
tive could not attempt to float the loan
on the terms proposed by the McCand-
less resolution. Now they go TO work
and admit that the Minister knew what
he was talking about. The Minister
did right in letting the Senators alone
until they had learned a lesson or two
by their own experience. As we have
stated before, the Senate has seen its
mistake and is ready to crawl out of
the first hole that is presented. The
Senate viii undoubtedly pass the re-
funding bill on the terms suggested by
the English syndicate, then the bill will
go to the House. When it arrives at
the second stage in the legislative jour
ney-thats another story.

CONTRACTION FROM BOOKS.

\ series of experiments have recently
been carried on in France to ascertain
what amount of contagion there is in
books. The results are commented upon
in medical journal. The aim of the
investigation was TO answer the follow
ing questions:
l. Are books carriers of microbes, and
especially of patho-genic (disease-pro-
ducing) microbes?
2 Can book soiled by infectious
liquids from patient suffering from a
contagious malady transmit the dis
ease?
3. Is there a practical means by which
books may be. easily and completely
disinfected?
The results of the investigation were
that patho-genic microbes were found
in old books. In experiments for trans
mission of the disease, pneumonia and
diphth ria were transmitted, and tuber-
culosis and typhoid fever were not.
Lastly, unbound books could be COM
pletely diSinfected by exposure to dry
heat, but bound books could not be dis
infected without injury. Hence it is
advised that only unbound books and
papers should be. used in hospitals.
1t is pity that the experiments were
not carried further and the books OF
the circulating Libraries been expert
mented upon 1t is quite possible that
measles and other diseases of childhood
can be transmitted by means Of books,
and people should be very careful not
to obtain books from a public library
when their children are suffering from
such diseases.

"While [ am PREMIER" said Senior
CanOvas to an interviewer recently,
''Spain will not provoke a conflict with
the United States, but | will brook no
attack on the sovereignty of Spain.
say this calmly, but l am resolved to
abide by it. This is my last word
Admiral Jose Maria Beranger, the
minister of marine, said: 81 consider a
rupture between Spain and the United
States improbable, but with a view of
averting any chance OF a conflict the
Spanish men of war in Cuban waters
avoid any friction with the United
States. Nevertheless, in order to be
prepared for any emergency I have
! ordered the vessels building abroad
and at home for the government
to be completed rapidly for service
| The marine infantry will be strongly
organized, and all the seamen in the
marine districts will be enrolled.
Should war unfortunately arise the
mercantile marine would fit out numer-
Gus privateers, manned by picked
crews, which would be capable of
inficting great damage upon American
shipping on the high seas and on unfor
titled American seaports."
Admiral Berauger expressed his
belief that the Spanish navy, in the
daring of crews and the strength of the
Spanish, was for the Americans. He
expressed the hope, however, that
Spain would only require her navy to
defend her colonial possessions from
insurgent criminals without any inter-
national conflict.
