Even the United States is get
ting a lesson in the positive char
acter of japanese demands. The
memorial of the Tokyo Chamber
of Commerce protesting against
the duty placed on japanese goods
by the new tariff law winds up in
the following terms: possess
ing, as she does, so MANY clear
sighted men, we can not believe
that America viii allow the new
bill to become law; but in view
of the direct bearing of the meas
we upon our national interests,
this Chamber of Commerce strong
~ urges the Government to give
that country a definite friendly
warning, so that the scheme may
be wholly abandoned. If, unfor-
tunately, an exorbitant tariff
should, in disregard of our good
will, be imposed upon our exports,
our national feelings would, it is
certain, be seriously injured and
the trade between the two coun-
tries lose its smooth character.
The State should then be free, as
a last measure of self-protection,
to impose differential duties on
American goods" The course
this petition takes and the manner
Of its reception in Washington will
be watched with no little interest,
since Hawaii has small tariff con
troversy on with Japan.

Hugh Craig, President of the
San Francisco Chamber of Com
merce said recently before the
judiciary Committee of the San
Francisco supervisors: Fifty per
cent. of our wharves would be idle
if our Hawaiian business were lost.
1t has all been built up since the
Hawaiian Reciprocity Treaty
went into effect. To abrogate the
treaty would be to drive this trade
elsewhere" The Orange Judd
Farmer might quote this senti-
ment as fairly expressing the opin-
ions of San Francisco merchants.
The beet sugar farmers are inter
ested in facts.

The Planters Monthly for June
is one of the most interesting and
valuable issues of that magazine.
The article ON the experiment sta
tons of the United States and ia
maica has many good suggestions
for the people interested in our
agricultural industries. DR.. Max
well of the local experiment sta
ton also contributes an article on
green fertilization. The editor
deals with the topic that is inter
esting all citizens here "Ameri-
cas- political relations with Ha-
wall" In referring to the Treaty,
it is stated that Hawaii will prob
ably not object to the reduction
one-half of the benefits derived
from non-dutiable sugars. To this
we cannot agree. Hawaii will OBJ
ject to any change in the Treaty,
except possibly that it will admit
all American goods free of duty.
If our opponents in Congress sue
coed in putting a small duty on
Hawaiian sugars we shall have to
accept the situation, but a strong
effort will be made to prevent such
adverse legislation.

Cuban correspondents have
been held up to ridicule on ac-
count of their unreliable reports
and now the Greco-Turkish speci-
alists are coming in for their share.
The St. James Gazette runs a
deadly parallel from London pa
pers. On April 23rd, the CORE
spondent of the Chronicle tele-
graphed the details of horrible
incident, the truth of which was
assured by thirty of the wounded
and one eyewitness. He told a
story Of how the Turks being I'M
able to carry the wounded Greeks
put them in a church and set fire
to the structure. On the same
day the Times correspondent re-
marked the excellent discipline OF
the Turkish army. He reported
mot a single outrage" in any OF
the small villages captured and

1t is said that Rudyard Kipling
has been sent to Crete as the war
correspondent of the London
Times at salary of $4,000. As
the war in Crete is ended for the
time being at least, Kipling will
possibly devote the most of his
time to story writing. The story
will doubtless be more interesting
than the correspondence. When
Kipling writes for the newspapers
he usually gives the impression
that his digestive apparatus is out
of order.

which he lives. This is a peculiar
ity of human nature by no means
common alone TO the citizens of
Hawaii. At the same time our
citizens seem TO be furnishing a
pretty good demonstration OF the
fact. as evidenced in the general
Indifference to qualify in order to
vote at the coming election of Rep
resentatives to the Legislature.
There may be a certain amount
of qualification in the contempla,
ton of the general self satisfied at
titude Of the body polite. 1t may
be interpreted as an evidence that
the people have no fault to find
with the laws Of the land or the
manner of their administration.
This is all right as far as it goes.
Satisfaction Is a good thing but
when il approaches stagnation 1t Is
about time the people began to
pinch themselves and awake TO the
realization that continued inditfer-
ence will finally result in a retro
grade movement. The legislative
power of a nation can't stand still.
1t must either 90 forward or gradu-
ally slip down hill. When the lat
ter charaeterizes the situation, the
people will sooner or later come to
their senses and begin to condemn
others right and left, when as a
matter of fact they themselves are
the ones TO be blamed.
To use a political term, this is an
of year" Only members Of the
House of Representatives are to
be elected, and the citizen who
feels that the country is running
along all right" can't see why he
should take the time to vote. This
is a narrow, selfish view. The citi
zen Of any republic whose action
IS prompted by such sentiments
ought to ponder over the question
IF individual responsibility. We
nave more respect for a man, who
.or mistaken reasons refuses to take
part in the political affairs of the
country. The man who cannot
axe the time to register, after hav-
NC fulfilled all other qualifications
# a voter, may well consider
whether he Is not a block IN the
of the political progress
# the nation.
Whatever the duties placed up
IN the men who hold office by pop
liar vote, representative men are
in the halls of the Legis-
AZURE. Such men Will not be
selected unless each and every
-oter of the country fulflls the
placed upon every mem
,er of the Commonwealth to exer-
Use the right of suffrage. The rec
9rds Of the Registration Board do
not reflect credit upon the voters
If the country, and it is to be hoped |
the supersatisfed, Indifferent ones

Snecial Music.

Special music, given in the Central
Union Church last evening. on the oc-
casion of the annual sermon to the
students of Oahu College, reflected
great credit upon Professor Yarndley.
A chorus of about Is voices assisted
the regular choir.
The opening prelude, violin solo
by Professor Yarndley, deserves more
than passing notice.

The public aud the pupils of the
High School are to be congratu-
lated upon the good sense of Prin-
cipal Scott in his suggestions as to
the character of the graduation
essays. All too often the youthful
graduates from High Schools and
academies select for graduation
essays dissertations on the immor-
tality of the soul or kindred sub
jects that bother the minds of great
philosophers. The principal inter
est of the public is to see how well
the young people handle the ideas
of others. There is no opportunity
for the display of much originality
or the suggestion of new thoughts.
The student is as a rule reaching
beyond himself, not to matters sug-
gested by the course of study, but
simply responding to the old fash
toned demand that a splurge must
be made on graduation day. How
much better it is for the pupil to
deal with subjects that have come
under his or her immediate obser-
walton, and of which something has
been learned outside of ponderou;
books which require some years OF
special study to even read under
standingly. In the list of essays
to be delivered Monday night, the
titles indicate sensible selection.
None of the graduates seek to 60
beyond the discussion of matters
that might be suggested by their
course of study or what would nat
urally be expected from the out
side observation or reading usual
to pupils of the High School age.

QUEEN VICTORIA.

The sixty years Of Queen Vic
torias remarkable and successful
reign Just closed mark not alone
an era in the progress OF the Brit
ish Empire. 1t Is not alone the
British subjects who viii sound the
praises Of their Gracious Queen
during this Jubilee week. Every
citizen OF every civilized nation on
the face Of the globe will Join
heart and soul in doing honor to
thewoman whose name stands fore
most among the rulers Of the world
as the leader Of moral, intellectual
and commercial progress, the pro-
gress Of civilization. No more in
teresting incident in history has
ever occurred or Is likely to occur
within the life time Of the present
generation. than this spectacle of
the nations Of the earth, wiping out
the lines OF petty jealousy and IN
sular pride and uniting TO honor a
woman whose power has been seen
and felt in every corner of the
globe.
All this demonstration Is mag
nifcent practical illustration that
the minds Of men have broadened
and are reaching out 10 the higher
plane from which they can contem-
plate without prejudice the noble
character Of one who by her judi
cious and kindly bearing toward
her own people has extended her
powerful uplifting influence TO all
mankind. and has been the great
est factor in breaking down the
barriers that have stood in the way
of Christening the world. Dur
ing her sixty years Of rule, Queen
Victoria has always kept close to
the people, but she has been none
the less the Queen Of her realm.
She has recognized the demands OF
the growing spirit of democracy,
but she has always held the con-
servative check upon her people
and thereby gained for them their
remarkable ascendency Of political
power. She has shown to the
world that monarchial rule Is not
necessarily rule Of oppression. She
rules today a free people who see |
in their Queen and her advisers a
tower Of strength that guarantees
their rights Of citizenship not alone
within the borders Of their own
nation but also follows TO protect
them wherever they may chose
their abode.
Victoria's reign has not been
without its troublesome periods,
not without the horrors of war
fare. not without It's mistakes
but in spite Of this Great
Britain stands today the all impor-
tant check upon the warlike spirits
of Europe, With a united and
LOYAL people and most formidable
war material at her command she
holds the fate Of Europe in her
hands, but her people and the
world know that her influence will
always he cast on the side Of peace.
Humanity has not yet reached the
point where thoughts Of war are
cast aside and Britain's superior
preparedness for war may be the
necessary step in bringing the day
of universal peace, as monarchial
rule was the necessary step in de-
veloping a democratic government
from the old fuedal system.
Ever thoughtful OF her people,
unassuming, unselfsh, without a
trace Of ambition for arbitrary
power and withal a true Christian
character Queen Victoria has by
her personal example taught the
lesson which if followed by those
who come after her viii hasten the
day when the hopes for Christian
civilization viii be realized.
