bers perhaps the native population was
better represented than the foreigners,
which NAV also be cited as another
item in favor of the new day" To
put the whole thing in a nutshell, Sat
urday was a day which commemorated
nothing and which did not demand that
people should put on their best bib
and tucker" and society smile; it sim
ply called upon the people to get to-
gether and have a good time, and that
is what they did.
One thing that should not pass notice
is the fact that until Honolulu has eX
panded beyond its present boundaries,
the Honolulu harbor is by far the most
popular place to hold aquatic sports,
when the program includes the wide
variety presented in that of Satur
day. The COURSES are not what they
might be, but taking all things into
consideration, the harbor is preferable
TO Pearl Lochs.

AS the founders of Regatta Day, Rep
resentative- Robertson and other mem
bers of the last Legislature deserve a
liberal reward for meritorious thought
fulness and an appreciation of what the
people needed to break the monotony
of life. Since the sporting feature of
the day has been such a success, we
would suggest that the members OF the
Legislature as we'll as the private citi-
zens go to work and brace up the edu-
Gators of the land before the next
September holiday comes around
There is no reason in the world why
the Friday previous to the third Sat
urday in September should not be de-
voted to Arbor Day exercises in the
schools.

The Princeton University faculty
have issued a pamphlet to show by
letters from successful graduates that
it is possible without humiliation or
loss of self respect" to go through col
lege on about $500 a year. AS nearly
every one of the leading universities
of the United States could make the
same showing, there is no necessity
for the young man with plenty OF
pluck to give up the idea of college
education simply because he is unfor-
tunate enough to the poor. The $300-a-
year man, although he cannot go into
society and must shun athletics to a
great extent undoubtedly gets more
out of his studies than the man with
twice the amount at his disposal. He
loses much of the good fellowship
which make college memories bright
spots in a mans career, but in the long
run, at the end of the race, when men
are measured by their intrinsic worth
and ability he, in ninety-nine cases OF
every hundred, leads his fellow class
men. In his professional life he in
clines to the practical rather than the
theoretical He has been through the
mill, knows what hard bone work is
and therefore is closer to actual con-
ditions of the common people. Money
has it's power even in educational cir
cles, but fortunately there are shining
examples of men who have forged
ahead and won laurels that money
never could and never can buy.

When the Persian Ambassador to
Austria was asked if Russia's power
is increasing in Persia, he said: Tell
me where Russia is not influential to-
day! Even here in Europe Russia
operates with much skill. Russia S
sphere of influence is continually in
creasing in the Balkan peninsula. Rus
sia's able diplomacy has also earned
land on the other hand, has not al
ways been lucky in Turkey, and the
same may be said of her dealings
with Persia" Since this remark was
passed Russia has suffered the loss of
one of it's most able statemen, Prince
Labanoff- Rostovski, whose DEATH
many London and American cores
pondents predict will result in a ma
terial change in the complexion of
European affairs. They claim that it
was fear of the Lobanoff policy which
held the Powers in allegiance and par
aIyzed the hand that might have been
extended to restore something like
peace within the realms of the bloody
Turk. They also claim that his agr
gressive policy gained practical Rus
sian supremacy in the Chinese en-
pire. Lord SalisbuTys recent prompt
action in the last Armenian outrages
is taken as an evidence of new cour-
age gained through the supposition
that the Russian influence may weak
en- now it is Invested of the directing
hand of the ambitious statesman
whose guiding star was, Russia the
supreme power of the eastern hemis-
phere. The proof of these predictions
is yet an indefinite quantity. While
the Car is credited with having more
humanity in his make up than his
late prime minister the weakening of
the iron handed aggressive policy is
by no means a foregone conclusion.
Russia has never been noted for its
recognition of the rights of humanity
when the question of Russian political
influence is paramount.

THE DAY RECEIVED WITH FAVOR.

The most conservative advocate of
Regatta Day could not fail TO pronounce
the first celebration of this new holiday
in Honolulu as anything but a complete
success. From the tub race to the clos
ing inning of the base bail game in the
afternoon there was not an unpleasant
feature to mar the enjoyment of the
daysfor' the public. Every event passed
off smoothly and, excepting one race in
which the boat clubs were interested,
with entire satisfaction to the partici-
pants. The exception TO the rule was
a matter of minor Importance so far
as the general public is concerned and
the boat clubs will have plenty of OPP
pOrtunity to get up extra enthusiasm
for the settlement of their differences
at some later day. The program was
good one, and through the excellent
work of the judges there were no I'M
necessary delays, so the crowd was
kept amused and enthused from the be-
ginning to the end.
The closing of the stores and general
suspension of business throughout the
city was the best assurance possible of
the feeling of the business community
toward the action of the Legislature
by which an extra holiday was placed
on the national calendar, and the
crowds at the boat houses and along
the water front left no question as TO
the interest the people Of Honolulu
take in aquatic sports. In point of num-

Now that the reform school boys have
had DEMONSTRATED to them that insub-
ordination is no small offense, the best
thing the Board of Education can do
shall be administered only by the SUI
perintendent. This would prevent the
possibility of abuse of power by hot
headed lunas, and if properly carried
out would eventually result in better
discipline in the school.

Duelling on bicycles is reported TO
be a new diversion in Spain. Two
members of the bicycle club of Grana-
dia recently met in a knife duel which
is probably the first encounter of the
kind ever fought upon wheels. Ac-
companied by their seconds, they
wheeled out some distance on the road
to Malaga, to a secluded spot. There,
posted 700 feet apart, at a sign they
wheeled toward each other, each di-
recting his machine with his left hand,
and brandishing in the right that ter
rible knife of Spain-the navajo. At
the first clash Perez pierced the left
arm of Moreno, but at the third en-
counter Moreno thrust his knife into
Perez's right breast. In a few minutes
the latter died of internal hemorrhage.
