 The downhill road from health runs di- rectly to consumption. Consumption is the disease of weakness. A debilitated condi- ton, from whatever cause, leaves broad road for the beginning of this disease. Its name tells its story. It means not only con sumption of the lungs, but consumption of the whole body.
 Loss of appetite, loss of sleep, loss of nerve force, loss of flesh these are fore4 runners and indications of consumption. The tearing down of the bodily tissues should be met by buildingup process. An unusual bodily state exists, and 1t must be met with unusual eneasures. The un- healthy body needs medicine, just as surely as the healthy body does not The body that is starting towards consump- tion needs Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis covery, It will cure ninety-eight per cent. of all cases of consumption, It is an infal- lible blood maker and flesh builder. It stimulates digestion, invigorates the nerves, makes the brain clear and the body strong.

 A TERRIFIC ENCOUNTER.
 The Young Defenders defeated the Skinner Schools in a fierce contest of football, the score being 6 to 3. No one was killed.

cent. of alcohol added, either to keep
the wine or enhance its value for the
retail trade. 1t is a notable fact that
with a duty of Is cents a gallon on
wines giving 21 per cent. of alcohol, the
imports for retail trade run close to the
extreme q per cent limit. After all,
with people who make an incorporate
use of liquor, it is the effect obtained
for a given price that places popular
value on a beverage, and we may ex-
pect to see the majority of the wines
testing close to the is per cent. limit.
If Minister Damon's temperance ar
gument is sound, then the larger part
of the beer brought into the country
ought to be exempt from duty. Beer
has very small percentage of alcohol,
and if light wines and beers will drive
out the more injurious spirits and sake,
then it is a good moral policy to culti-
vate beer palates.
The only way for the Government to
legislate in favor of the lighter bever-
ages and at the same time give the
United States the benef1t which is its
due is to revamp the whole tariff law.
1t has yet to be conclusively shown
that the increased importation of wine
has been attended by corresponding
falling off in the consumption of more
injurious liquors. The wine bill now
before the Legislature is makeshift,
and puts Hawaii in the position of be-
ing frightened by the threats of Califor-
MIA wine dealers, but still fearful of
graphing with complete and sound
revision of the tariff law.

The death of Kate Field was sad in
deed, separated from home, but not, it
must be said, from friends. The number
Of people present at her funeral showed
how she had reached the hearts of the
community here. Her winning manner,
her careful desire to know the truth,
her answering determination to do her
duty as true and faithful member of
the praises won for her the respect and
love Of all who came into contact with
her. Though dying far from home, she
was borne TO her grave with loving
hands, and true tears of sorrow uwere
shed over her sad fate. AS was remark
ed by Chief Justice Judd, she was
friend Of Hawaii; she was a true Ameri-
can.

THE WINE BILL.

The principal redeeming feature of
Minister Damon's wine bill is that it
is step toward greater freedom of
trade with the United States. 1t is one
method of returning the benefits de-
rived by this country from the re-
ciprocity treaty, and if the Minister of
Finance will continue the good work
SO that not only the liquor dealers Of
California, but every American manu-
facturer doing business with the Ha-
waiian Islands, will share the same
benefit, then his policy should receive
hearty support.
AS business measure, as a SOD to the
wine merchants of California, the bill
has its good points, but as temperance
measure it is palpably weak. 1t would
have been better if nothing had been
said about temperance in connection
with it. The temperance argument
tackled onto this measure is not unlike
the argument used by the faction
to be found in every prohibition
State of the American Union who ar
que that high license is better than
because under high license
the people get better stuff'' and do not
suffer the same physical injury in con-
sequence of their intemperance Yet in
the prohibition State the arrests for
are noticeably less than
in the State under high license laws.
Better STUFF may have its advantages,
but as rule increased intoxication goes
with it.
Furthermore, if the wine bill is in
tended for a temperance measure, the
wines exempt from duty should not run
above fourteen per cent. alcoholic test,
or the pure grape wines. The Is per
cent. wines simply represent four per

all money heretofore or hereafter ap
propriated for the benefit of the Blu
reau of Public Instruction is hereby
transferred to the Department OF Pub
lie Instruction, and all rights, duties
and powers heretofore belonging to the
Board of Education are hereafter to be
exercised and performed by the De-
partment.
In Section 30 Rep. Haia moved to
strike out the words provided that
where it is desired that another Ian
guage shall be taught in addition to
the English language, such instruction
may be authorized by the Department,
either by its rules, the curriculum Of
the school, or by direct order in any
particular instance" He contended
that some margin should be allawed
for instruction in other languages,
should such be the desire of different
people.
Rep. Hanuna-If that part Of the Sec
ton is stricken out, then English will
be the only language allowed in the
schools. The section as it Is gives the
Board of Education chance to work.
1 do not believe that striking out the
words referred to will have the effect
that Rep. Haia thinks 1t will.
Section A was considered as having
been read and referred with the title
to the Judiciary Committee.
At 2:45 p. m. House adjourned.

A FREE HIGH SCHOOL.

While the House is upon the bill re-
organizing the Board of Education, it
would be well for the members to con-
slider the question of whether the High
School should remain pay school or
not
II was the intention of the Board of
Education when the present High
School was established, to abolish school
fees and make it free to all. After
much discussion it was finally decided
to leave the question to the Legislature,
but up to this time no one has taken
the matter up. 1t does seem an anomaly
that the highest education to be obtain
ed in our Government system is not free
to any child Of the Republic, no matter
what the means of its parents may be.
In order to meet the difficulty the
Board has established a series of free
scholarships, but they are distributed in
a somewhat arbitrary manner, and go
chiefly to those who importune till they
get them. But such a system is wrong
If there are to be free scholarships they
should be obtained for merit, by exam
ination. and not donated as a species
of charity. Charity is not what the self
respecting poor man or poor woman
wants. He or she should have by right
what is now given by charity.
If we go TO California we find not only
all the High Schools free, but we find
the Universities free to the children of
the State, and the same holds good al
most throughout the Union.
There is no greater source of pride to
The citizen of the United States than

In conformity with Section 1441 of the
Civil Code, all Corporations are hereby
notified to make full and accurate ex-
hibition of their affairs to the Interior
Department on or before the 31st day

Blanks for this purpose will be fur

Office.
Upon failure of any corporation to
present the exhibit within the time re-
quired, the Minister of the Interior will,
either himself or by one or more Com
missioners appointed by him, call for
the production of the books and papers
of the Corporation, and examine its Of

from those schools that the brightest
members of the Senate, of the Repre-
sentatives, of the bar and of mercantile
and literary life come. We claim to be

The opening of Pauahi Hall at Oahu
College marks another era in the his
tory of that institution. The building
is a fine one and would do credit to any
city anywhere. The people who assem-
bled were the most representative OF
the community. The address of Presi-
dent Dole told the history of the insti-
tuition and was at times reminiscent,
at times sparkling, and its peroration
struck the key note of true education
when he said that the time had come
when no question of science could be
put that would not find an answer
there. If such broad policy is carried
out-and Professor Hosmer emphasized
the same point when he said that no re-
ligious bar, no color line, no line OF
wealth should be drawn-again we say,
if such policy is carried out, Oahu Col
lege has a great future before it.

AFTERNOON SESSION.

A motion was made that the rules be
allowed
Speaker Naone gave it as his opinion
that the House should proceed along
the old lines of dignity.
Rep. Richards don't think it
would look well for strangers to come
in and see the members of the House
of Representatives smoking. We
sometimes get our feet up on the
desks. That is not very nice, but what
would 1t be If we were to take to smok-
ing?
Motion to suspend the rules lost by a
very small majority.
Section % of House Bill No. AZ again
taken up for discussion.
Rep. Hanuna-I want to ask Minister
Cooper to state If this section applies
to such institutions as St. Louis Col
lege, Kamehameha or others, or wheth-
er it is meant to apply only to small
private schools which seek to evade the
laws.
Minister Cooper-It seems to me that
it goes without saying that the law
must be made general. You cannot
make one law for one and another for
still some other school.
Supposing parent should call at the
Bureau of Public Instruction and state
that his or her child was attending a
certain private school. If the Depart
ment has no jurisdiction over that
school, it is powerless to act and is
helpless to enforce the law, assuming
that the school is irregular in it's pro-
ceedings. 1t is not likely that the De-
partment will interfere with well es-
tablished institutions such as Puma
hou or Kamehameha.
Rep. Winston-It seems to me that
some of the members of the House fail
to catch the Difference between the
meaning of control and supervision
The section looks toward supervision
and not control. There would probably
be less objection if this was understood.
Upon motion of Minister Cooper Sec
ton q was enlarged so as to read as
follows:

The gentlemen who have had the in
come tax in hand have made one radical
mistake The same mistake has been
made in the English income tax. As the
tax stands here and in England, ex-
emption is given, then abatement up to
a certain figure, and then the whole in
come is taxed without abatement OF ex-
emption. Now, this is theoretically
wrong. because the whole idea of the
tax is as Scion put it in Athens, each
had equal physical necessities and those
should be exempt from taxation" Now,
it is just that the exemption be allowed
TO all. be they rich or be they poor.
However, our tax men are yet in en-
bryo, and they will learn a good deal
by looking into these questions.

KATE FIELD.

By the death of Kate Field Hawaii
loses a friend and the United States
one of its most able and brilliant news
paper writer's. Kate Field was one of
the few women of the United States
who attained a worldwide reputation
by constant struggle, without the as
sistance of position given by wealth.
Her influential friends were obtained
in consequence of the general recog-
milton of her ability, and she gained
her success and reputation in the face
of odds that would have crushed less
determined, less practical and less
ambitious woman. She was a hard
worker, and having once committed
herself to a task, she left no stone I'M
turned until she had mastered the stu
alton in all its details. This same ag-
gressive and conscientious spirit which
did SO much toward making the woman
famous finally led her to attempt task
far beyond her physical strength, and
brought her life to close at a time
when, as she herself stated, she was
doing some of the most intensely inter-
esting work of her career. She was fol-
lowing strictly the instructions of her
employer when she received orders to
20 Ia 10 Tela la nd In
gate the situation. Following her
usual careful methods, she was going
from house to house, so to speak, from
district TO district and island to island,
studying the people, or in newspaper
parlance doing" nation with free
hand, her orders being to tell the story
as she saw it. Kate Field in Hawaii
was to the Chicago Times-Herald what
Col. Cockerill in Egypt was to the New
York Herald-a representative in whose
judgment the people of the United
States had confidence, and whose views
upon public affairs would be received
with more than passing attention.
Miss Fields career as a lecturer, in
politics and as newspaper writer
proved her ability as clear thinker, a
broad-minded, matter-of-fact woman,
with a wonderfully practical mind of
her own. Once having formed her opin-
ion, nothing could swerve her from her
original purpose, and fortunately she
was never quick to form or express
opinions. 1t is this popularity in her
nature which leads us to believe that
the true Kate Field letters from Ha-
wall have never been written. She told
every side of the story as it came to her,
and left her readers to draw their own
Thus she was preparing
the way to bring her own logical con-
elusions before the public in the more
manner at later day.
With all her varied experience in con-
lection with the stage, the lecture plat
'orm, the political campaign and the
Office, Miss Field lost none
If the finer womanly instincts. She was
Independent but not Extensively SO. She
.ook life as it came, and when unable to
make circumstances fit her pleasure,
adapted herself to circumstances. She
has shown what a single aggressive
can do toward shaping public
opinion and making the world better
or her having lived.
