Bishop Willis says he didn't know
what his pupil Lytton, had been writ
ing about until the West Plains arti-
Gle was published here, but he re-
marks by the way that ne was sur
prised that Mr.. LyttOn was so ac-
curately posted on Hawaiian history"
In other words the Political Bishop
pats his pupil on the back and ex-
presses surprise that he should have
gained so much from their casual
conversations. 1t seems that the Bis
hop considers his pupil very bright
boy, and indeed he must be if it was
only through casual conversations
that he gained such an excellent idea
OF the opinions held by his teacher.
All signs point to the Bishop being

OLD LINE DEMOCRATS.

The principles of the Gold Democrats
have been published to the world, their
Presidential candidates named, and the
rank and file of the old line Democracy
enlisted under the banner of-William
Mckinley This is about the manner
in which the practical politician will
size up the result of the deliberations
of the Indianapolis convention. A vote
for Palmer AMI Buckner in the forth
coming election will count for the Re
publican party, and the selection of the
two candidates from the heart of the
doubtful Republican section indicates
a malice of careful forethought on the
part of the campaign managers.
The platform adopted is typical of
the Democracy of the past quarter of
a century. 1t condemns Populistic free
coinage and the Republican tariff; it
stands by the principles of the Ameri-
can constitution and defends time-hon-
ored principles of the party; it declares
for the gold standard and reformation
in the system of banking. About the
only declaration which was anticipated
and not made was plank favoring the
submission of the income tax propo
sition to the people in the form CT
constitutional amendment.
The most striking feature about this
coterie of men who have organized to
fight on principle, but with no hope of
winning, is the personality of the two
men selected as leaderS-John NJ. Pal
mer. for four years an officer in the
Union army. and Simon B. Buckner,
for four years an officer and hard
fighter in the Confederate army. They
are both old men, the former having
just celebrated his 10th birthday, and
the latter beyond the three score years
and ten limit; yet they are both active
men and still prominent in the political
life of their respective States and of
the nation. 1t has often been said that
if the United States were threatened
with foes from without or disaffection
within, the men of the North and the
South would join hands in the protec
ton of the national honor. and it has
remained for the National Democrats
TO prove it to be true.
There is no possible hope for the
election of either of the candidates, al
though they will undoubtedly poll a
large vote. Buckner Will draw the
bourbon vote of the South, and Palmer
the anti-machine vote of Illinois, there
by increasing the chances for Republi-
can success in Kentucky and Louisiana
and giving Mckinley good odds on the
probability of securing the electoral
vote of Illinois. When Buckner headed
the Democratic State ticket of Ken
lucky in 1887 he was elected Governor
by 1900 plurality. This figure was
several thousand lower than that usu-

There are many people in Honolulu
who will sincerely regret the depart
ure of Rev. T. D. Garyin and wife, not
withstanding they promise to return
to their home here in the not far dis
tant future During his two years
stay in the country Mr.. Garvin has
shown himself to be a man of ability,
and above all true Christian worker.
He came as an evangelist and by quiet,
persistent toll has built up church,
which though small now has every
promise of continuing it's healthy
growth until it becomes one of the
strong powers for good in Hawaii nei.
In the advocacy of his particular creed,
he has not been without some opposi-
tion which might have led less conser-
yative men to enter upon disagree
able religious wrangle. He has pur-
sued the even tenor of his way and
gained the high esteem of the whole
community.

While the rumor of the lombard
ment of Constantinople was like all
rumors for which Honolulu is deserv-
eddy noted, Lord Salisbury has come
to the point where he will demand
that the Turkish ruler shall govern
his empire with some degree of de-
cency. Late dispatches give promise
that the British government will act
whether the Powers like it or not, and
should this promise be carried out
Lord Salisbury will have the support
of every man in whose veins runs
civilized Anglo-Saxon blood. If inter
ference with the blood thirsty Turk
means European war, it is about time
the war came on. If the problem were
merely one of possession or outlining
boundaries the proposition would be
quite different, but even bloOdshed can
excused when it is required to wipe
out barbarism of the worst type.

Sunday evening a series of sermons
