The Needs of the Negro.

The power of the ballot, says w. E
B. Du Bots, in the August A tlantic, we
need in sheer self-defenSe, and as q
guarantee of good faith. We may mis-
use it, but we can scarce do worse in
this respect than our whilom masters.
Freedom, too, the long-sought, we still
seek-the freedom of life and limb,
the freedom to work and think. Work,
culture and liberty-all these we need
not singly. but together; for today
these ideals among the negro people
are gradually coaiescing, and finding q
higher meaning in the unifying ideal
of the race, the ideal of fostering the
trait and talents of the negro, not in
opposition TO, but in conformity with,
the greater ideals of the American re-
public, in order that some day, on
American soil, two world races may
give each to each those characteristics
which both SO sadly lack. Already we
come not altogether empty-handed;
there is today no true American music
but the sweet, wild melodies of the
negro slave; the American fairy tales
are Indian and African; we are the sole
oasis of simple faith and reverence in
dusty desert of dollars and smartness
Will America be poorer if she replace
her brutal, dyspeptic laundering with
the light-heart9d but determined negro
humility: or her coarse. cruel wit with
loving, jovial good humor; or her GA u
ME Rooney with ''Steal Away?' Sim
ply q stern concrete test of the under
lying principles of the great republic
is the negro problem, and the spiritual
of the freedmen's sons is tn
travail of souls whose burden is almost
beyond the measure of their strength,
out who bear it in the name of an his
toric race, in the name of this the land
Of their fathers fathers, and in the
name of human opportunity.

hearts of a people as has Victoria Of

Miss Sophie Sheldon died yester-
day afternoon at her residence at
Iwilei, after prolonged illness
which necessitated an operation.
The deceased was 46 years Of age
and was a daughter OF the late
Henry Sheldon, at one time the
editor of the Pacific Commercial
Advertiser, and very prominent
man in the community. The late
Miss Sheldon was for several years
one OF the ladies in waiting OF the
then heir-apparent, Liliuokalani.
During the last years she devoted
her life to the interest OF the coming
generation Of Hawaians, and during
the cholera epidemic she was one
of small band OF devoted
volunteers who offered their services
to the Board OF Health as nurses.

We have already said that the
action OF the Council OF State 10 re-

sound and dignifed; that the cir
cumstances Of the quarantine OF the
Kinsi Maru did not constitute
"pestilence" or great public neces-
sity under the purview of the pro-
vision of the Constitution, and, we
can only add, that Mr.. Owen-Smith
is right in saying that the guards
and merchants should be paid at
once, and that the Executive Coun-
Gil should look to the Legislature to
indemnify the Ministers for the out
lay. 1t is clear case for assuming
Ministerial responsibility.

The President has the hardihood
to contend that five cases Of yarioloid

lenrelW His contention might have
some weight if the five cases had
been developed in as many localities
in the city; but at the quarantine
station, under control of the Board
OF Health, it was no more a pesti-
lence under the meaning of the
Constitution than so many cases OF
measles would be. The action Of
the Board OF Health in declaring
quarantine in the case of the Kinai
Maru was justified by the condition
OF affairs on board and at the station
but the following action should have
been consis tent. The President of
the Board did not have the courage
of his convictions in what followed
the imposition of quarantine. He
should have held the ship until
parties here or abroad furnished
funds to release the vessel. 1t is
puerile to say that in case OF libel
and confscation OF the steamship
proceeds OF sale would have been a
Government realization," and as
such could not have been used to
pay expenses of quarantine. Had

MINISTERIAL RESPONSIBILITY

Regarding the very proper action
OF the Council OF State in refusing
an appropriation sought by the Ex-
ecutive Council on behalf Of the
Board OF Health, Mr.. w, Owen
Smith publishes characteristic
letter in the Advertiser this morn
ing, which we give space to on our
outside pages. While the letter is
somewhat lengthy there are but a
few sentences which require atten-
ton. Mr.. Owen-Smith comedies that
"The expenses OF quarantining pas
sengers are paid by the ship bring
ing them" This being conceded it
follows that the expenses incurred
were for account Of the steamship
Kinai Maru and her owners. The
necessity was upon the Board Of
Health to impose quarantine; but
was it such a necessity as was con-
templated by the trainers of the
Constitution in the phrase "pesti-
lence or other great public necessity
shall arise" in which emergencies
the Council of State was empowered
to appropriate public monies9
