A Mixed Prayer.

A little 4 year-old girl was saying
her prayers the other night, and
after her "Now lay me-" asked God
to bless papa, mamma, each one of
her brothers and sist ers, and Mr.. and
Mrs. Black, mentioning a lady and
gentleman OF whom the little daugh-
ter was very fond, and who had
dined with the family that night.
Her wise older sister of years
liste ned critically to the prayer, and
when it was done said severely:
ut isn't necessary to pray for any
one outside your own family. You
shouldn't have prayed for Mr.. and
Mrs. Black. God might get so many
names mixed up"

GENTLEMEN:-I am pleased to say
the Victor Safe you sold me some
FIVE or six years ago, preserved intact
all of its contents in the late fire in

safe stood at point in my Office in

have been one OF the hottest parts
in the great conAagration. 1t con-
tanned papers and other things Of

was found to be safely preserved and
in good condition. l cheerfully make

may see proper.

PUBLIC OPINION.
Thoughts Expressed by Other Jour
mails.

The statement that the city of
Glasgow, Scotland, has abolished all
taxes is almost increditable to the
average resident Of an American
ring ridden, -burdened city. How
was it accomplished Simply by
running the affairs OF the city in a
business, like way A municipality
is a corporation in which each citi-
zen is a stockholder, and in Glas.
gov the corporation has been man
aged for the benefit of all, not mere
ly few, of the stockholders. The
street car, electric light, gas, water
and other valuable franchises which
are the property of the whole peo.
pie have not been given away to a
few individuals. All these public
works are run by the municipality
for the benefit of the people, and
the legitimate profits therefrom are
sufficient to pay the city's expenses.
Every man who pays car-fare or a
gas bill pays at the same time part
Of his taxes. Contrast this municipal
government with that of the great
cities of our own county. In nearly
all of the latter franchises worth
millions annually have heen prac-
tically donated to few individuals
or corporations. The same is to
some extent true of our state and
county governments. 1t is too late
now to remedy this matter, but it is
not too late to prevent similar
misuse of the peoples property in
the future.-E1.

A NATIONAL INSULT.

We are pleased to state that an
opportunity has been given to Act
ing Minister of Foreign Affairs w.
o. Smith, to show his statemanship
in upholding the dignity of Hawaii
and to avenge the insult our Para
disc has suffered by remarks in the
Argonaut and other Californian
journals.
The Argonaut has classed Hawaii
as an "insigniicant foreign country"
and has even compared us to Vene-
zuela. Great Scott! Is the mighty
kingdom of Papa Dole, with its no.
600 inhabitants-mostly Asiatics-to
be compared to Venezuela with her
millions OF subjects2 The idea is
preposterous and we have no doubt
that Billy Smith, the Acting Minis
ter Of Foreign Affairs will take i'm
mediate steps to save the honor Of
Hawaii by placing the country on a
war footing with his troops.
Let US wade in blood as we have
done in former days. Let the Ka-
imiloa be repurchased and let US
find another Admiral Jackson or let
Mr.. Smith take charge himself He
has had considerable experience as
sailor on his trips to New Zealand
and Japan (at the taxpayers ex-
pense) and ought to make pretty
good admiral. Then let Rowell, the
mechanical genius Of Dole's Govern
ment attend to the Notifications OF
the harbors and let Dole ride his
homestead hobby to his hearts con-
tent and buy up all the points of
vantage.
When we are ready-which will
be in few years to come-we will
60 forth and avenge the national
insult. To be called insignificant
by a republican newspaper is more
than Hawaii can stand. Shoulder
to shoulder will we march together
and if we cannot refund our national
loan we can at least uphold our
national honor

position. The Bulletin Office is con

its own that would give these ISL

than annexation. Indeed, the paper
