PROPER LIGHTS.

! The Star calls attention, very
iforcibly. to the Importance OF
good lights in the school rooms
An examination of the matter in
Germany several years ago, dis
closed an alarming deficiency in
this respect. in the school rooms
of that country. The eye sight of
many children was seriously eff
fected by it. The same matter
was repeatedly discussed by q. S.
Commissioner of Education, W. T.
Harris, when he was in charge of
the school system of st. Louis.
Experiments made in the school
houses of Cincinnati, several years
ago, showed that there was al
most criminal neglect in the
failure to provide sufficient light.
The percentage of defective eve
sight among the children was
most serious.
Aside from the proper lighting
of school houses. the homes of the
are, as a rule, not pro-
perly lighted for night study.
Parents are willing enough to do
what is needed. but there is much
ignorance of the proper methods.
The principles of efficient lighting
is not understood. and the chill
1ren suffer in consequence, in
later years. Where the lights
should be placed, the angle at
which the light should strike the
reading matter, the protection of
the eye against the direct rays of
the Illuminating substance are
most important items in protect
ing a weak eye sight.
1t is possible that the Board of
Education might issue some sim
pie instructions on the subject.
for the benefit of parents.

AN AWFUL FATE.

tiers, with Harper's Weekly, a
state of deep mourning over the
unspeakable crime of annexation
which, it says, Congress is about
to commit. 1t watches the move
ment of the national williams"
and is wailing in advance over
their heartless perfidy. 1t even
reads off in advance what the
punishment should be for the high
crime that is near at hand. In its
frenzy for inaicting punishment
on the guilty millions of Ameri-
cans, it SAYS that: that the earth
should yawn and swallow them
up" Substantially, it goes down
on its knees and invokes the AL
mighty to rend the great cont
.nent from the Atlantic to the
Pacific, with a bottomless abyss.
into which the American people,
stricken with remorse, shall tum-
bic and be annihilated. There is
no conviction by a Judge and jury.
But the Post sits over them in
awful judgment. Its frenzy re-
calls the wrath of a wild lunatic.

BRAINS AND SUGAR PLANTING

The returns stating the number
of laborers employed on sugar
producing plantations made to
the Planters Association, and the
returns made of the number of
tons Of sugar produced, disclose
the rapid progress made in the
great industry. There can be but
one conclusion drawn from a com
parison of the returns 1t demon
.suates the power of educated in
.telligence and skill in developing
material resources, and to some
extent it Is a guarantee of the
permanency of the sugar industry
on these Islands. 1t is clear
enough that the doctrine of the
survival of the tittest" will in
time, apply with terrible energy
to the sugar producers of the
world, and the Hawaiian Plan
tiers will be put on their mettle, if
they hope to survive. If they are
as successful in solving the labor
question. as they are in solving
some Of the agricultural ques-
tons, they will sit on the higher
benches of the select "fttist."
The sugar product of 1890 was
l46,1T4 tons, produced by 1889
laborers. Here is a product of
about y tons per laborer. The
crop of 1895 was 225.S2s, which
was produced by 2O,O95 laborers,

JUDGE CALDWELL.

We present in another column
some notes regarding the services
Of Judge Henry Clay Caldwell,
Circuit Judge for the Eighth Cir
emit of the United States Court of
Appeals. He is now, owing to i'll
health, residing in this city. His
character as a jurist, is eminent
in the large circuit over which he
presides. Owing to the vast
iamount of railway construction
within his cirucit, much of which
has been done by irresponsible
contractors. and Wall street spec
ulatorS. he has been charged with
the decision of many intricate
questions involving corporation
law. He was among the first of
those holding judicial power. To
break up the practice of bank
rupt railway corporations that de
feaUed the payment of their obi
CATIONS by conducting their prop |
critics in the name of the Court. !
The abuse of the judicial power, in
this reSpecr had heroine almost /
in some States. The
railroad wreckers counted on the
aid Of the Courts in promoting
their speculaGons. and the Courts
gave it. under the influence of pre-
,edent, and not with the intent of
defeating justice.
Judge Caldwell in his published
takes rather gloomy
7iews Of the supreme power of the
money lending corporations. But
We believe, on the whole. that
here are always social influences
IT work. which naturally tend to
iefeat that power, without any
-iolent interference.
Judge Caldwell belongs to a
very important class of men in
he great Western States. who are
carefully and wisely building up a
system of jurisprudence, which is
,ementing the national life on the
me hand, and on the other. care,
iully preserving that line, not al
Ways very distinct. which marks

hives. the chicken coops and the
tout houses. the Post will shake its
finger at the terror stricken peo-
lple and shout: Il told you So
If these visitations cannot be
secured. there is no reason why
the Post and Nationl should not
take a contract to repeat in Am
erica, the visitation in Egypt for
| its sins, in the time of Pharaoh,
and cover the country with lice. "
just as a benevolent man tenders
the Government a fortune for the
support of charity, the Post (and
|Nation) should tender the Lord
several billions ofbushels of ''lice,"
with which to afflict the wicked
Americans.
As TO those whom it CALLS the
pirates and thieves" who have es-
tablished this Republic, the Post
is speechless. The Imagination of
man cannot conceive of an ade-
quate punishment. AS for the
worst kind of torture, the Post in
its frenzy would regard that as a
"doggoned luxury" which would
make the thieves skip with joy.
Itis case of the most distress
