The effort to establish a University
hearty cooperation among the profess
sional men of Honolulu. Hawaii'S con-
tribution to the advanced educational
institutions of the United States has
been large one, larger in fact that a
good proportion of the communities
with the same number of inha bitants
in the United States. There is also a
larger number of institutions repre-
scented than is usually found in one
spot. Yale men are decidedly in the
ascendency, but Harvard is very well
represented, as well as Amherst, Cor
nell, Princeton and Wesleyan in the
East. Western colleges and universe
ties are not strong in numbers, as Ha-
waii has not yet overcome the Eastern
associations resulting from the early
settlers coming from Eastern homes.
But from whatever college a man may
have graduated, he always finds a
great deal in common with college
men. Association with graduates of
other institutions revives his interest
and quickens his love for the alma
mater which is too often forgotten in
the rush of business life. 1t will be
good for the college men, old and
young, to get together two or three
times a year and FURNISH up the old
memories

Nineteen years ago Denis Kearney
startled San Francisco and attracted
the attention of the country by speeches
devoid of fact, argument and logic, in
which he attacked "plutocrats," de-
nounced the money power, declared
that capital was the enemy of labor,
and appealed to the ''toiling masses
against the few who were expressing
them. Is there any difference, except
in higher education, a more fluent
diction and greater ability, between the
speeches of Denis Kearney and the
later and more recent utterances of
Mr.. William Jennings Bryan? Every
reader can answer this question for
himself, and we trust every reader is
asking himself as he reads them: Is
this the kind of argument in which
believe? Is it true, as these speeches
assert, that the few have all and the
mass nothing? Is this appeal to class
prejudice and the passions of men
right? Is the only remedy for any
evils that exist to reduce the dollar to
50-cent value?-Philadelph Press

focus they Will be prepared to swallow
their principles. Now it is asked what
will happen in Hawaii if Mckinley is
elected. Well, what would naturally
happen under our present constitution?
Negotiations for annexation will be
opened from this side of the water.
Mckinley is practically pledged TO an
annexation policy, and it is highly
probable that the treaty he would pre-
sent to the United States Senate would
embody much the same plan as that
drawn by President Harrison. The
Senate Of the next administration will
doubtless have a narrow Republican
majority, and what few refused to
come under the party whip will be bal
anced by such strong men as Senator
Morgan and his following. If Hawaii
is to become American territory it
must adopt American principles, but it
is not probable that the United States
would demand an immediate turning
over of established systems in such a
as to work injury to large and
important industries. But whatever
position may be taken by the next
President, be he Mckinley or Bryan,
there will be found no disposition on
the part of the Hawaiian Government
to avoid the issue or waver from the
of its constitution.

TROUBLE N PHILIPPINES.

In the editorial columns Of the Hong
Kong Weekly Press is given review
of the situation in the Philippine ISL
ands, which seems far more serious,
so far as Spain is concerned, than the
cabled press reports received from the
United States would indicate Thus
far in the campaign the native troops
have remained loyal to the Govern
ment. and no doubts are expressed as
to the ability OF the local forces to
quen the rebellion in due course of
time.
The principal cause of the. outbreak
is said TO be found in the oppression
of the monastic orders, whose rule is
paramount to the civil government.
The insurgents are spoken of as among
the intelligent classes, and the princi-
pal following comes from the city of
Manila 1t is not, as many had sup
posed, the outbreak of a savage race.
Secret societies are blamed as the in
stigators of the movement, the secret
organizations under various names, es-
tablished for various objects, having
served as the meeting places for the
discussion of politics and sprouting the
seeds of revolution. The people have
been grossly misgoverned and have
apparently seized upon a season of
Spanish trial to seek to obtain reforms
from the home Government.
In the charges made it appears that
after paying Government taxes and
money for the support of church par
ishes, the people are obliged to give
large sums for the support of the
monastic orders. To maintain their
ascendancy it is claimed that these
orders oppose education and use their
efforts to keep the people in state of
ignorance and superstition. Serious
charges are also made against the
friars To a great extent many of the
statements made can be put down as
considerably exaggerated by the radi-
cal element that always make them
selves heard in time of strife; but
some credit must be given to the in
surgent declaration of woes, since in
other countries and in Spain itself
these orders have either been driven
out or placed under such restrictions
as to prevent active domination. Yet
Spain has been afraid to attempt to
control the orders in the Philippines
on account of the danger of the mem
bers setting the country in turmoil and
making it's administration by civil
power impossible. -
There has now arisen class who
claim that the colony must rid itself
of the orders as completely as the
mother country has done. Whether
this is the whole cause for the rebel
lion cannot be stated, but it at least
serves as a figurehead which the in
surgent leaders press to the front.
Whether it is the monastic order or
some other order that is causing the
trouble, Spain can certainly be credited
with being able to thoroughly mis-
govern the colony of the Orient as we'll
as the ever faithful isle.

According to the New York Tribune
the Congress of Costs Rica has adopt
ed new military measure. Formerly
the regular army of the country con-
sisted of 900 men; it is hereafter to
consist of 1000, and the Government is
empowered to increase it to 5000 in case
of rebellion, or to enlarge it yet more
in the event of a foreign war. 1t is
doubtless the design of the new law
that the militia shall be drafted into
the regular army in case of necessity
All citizens over Is years of age are
liable to militia service. AS the po-
pulation of the country is not over
100000, the Government ought to be
able to maintain peace both at home
and abroad, more especially as only
those people who may be declared re
spectacle" are allowed to vote.

The birmingham Gazette. one Of the
most interesting papers published IN
New England. tells about a practical
joke which was played lately i'm the
town OF Richmond, VT. Upon n cor.
tain Sunday morning the congregation
OF the Second Methodist Church were
amused or NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. TO tho
age and temperament of the different
MEMBERSHIP observe three large white
covered pillows, such as are commonly
used upon beds, in three pews. In
each case the pillow was comfortably
disposed at the head OF the pew. as IL

customary occupant of the pew was no
torious for sleeping in church. The
three persons thus distinguished wer,
very angry. One Of them openly ac-
euSed the pastor of contriying TO in.

his adherents, threw out dark insinua.
tlohs against the leader of the choir.

must De very exasperating, after one
mas sat up late on Saturday night m
hhlsh sermon-I understand that min.
lsters always postpone this work unt,l

the delivery of it. A particularly sad
case OF this sort occurred in n village
with which | used to be familiar. The
church was small one, and upon tba
sunday that l have in mind dist,n.
suisneu person, member of the Unit
Gu states Senate, was present. His
Visit TO the town had been exnected
ana the minister, young man who was
considered to have an unusual yift of
preaching, had made special effort TO
prepare discourse worthy of the oc.
casion. He delivered the text and had
proceeded some distance into his sinh.
Ject with much success. The preat

twice he was thought to nod-we were
all looking at him-as if in approval Of
the ideas advanced. But alasl os time
went on, as the bees hummed moro and
more drowsily outside, as little breeze
sprang up and rustled the leaves of
the maple trees amid which the church
stood, the Senator's attention relaxed.
at last his eyes closed, his jaws fell
ana he slumbered perceptibly. AS luck
would have 1t, the minister was at that
moment approaching the climax of his
subject. He stopped, took few swal
lows of water, blew his nose, did CIV.
erythlng that could be done to give
the stranger time to wake, but all to
no purpose. He was forced to resume
his sermon in a crestfallen manner. nor
did the great man arouse himself un.
til the discourse was finished and the
closing hymn had been given out.-Bos-
