A COCOANUT PRAYER.
Here is a coconut for you, oh 4kuG!
A dark coconut, a yellow coconut,
A milk-coconut, Waikiki coconut. .
Whence came the coconut?
The coconut came from Wawau,
The coconut came from Upolu,
The coconut came from the pillars Of
Tahiti.
What has it within?
There is water within,
There is richness within,
There is sweetness within,
There is stanching of thirst within,
There is satisfying of hunger within.
The coco-palm grows,
The man grows,
The coco-palm blossoms,
The maid blossoms,
The coco-palm fruits,
The child bears fruit,
The offspring of the land.
Here is a coconut for you, oh AkHdl
What is the purpose of this coconut?
1t is coconut of aloha,
II is a coconut to give drink,
1t is a coconut to give food,
1t is coconut to quench thirst,
1t is a coconut to satisfy hunger.
Here is a coconut for you, oh Akudi
What is the purpose of this coconut?
A mystic cord to unite governments,
A mystic cord to unite lands,
To weave mutual bond.
The high shall be made low,
The low shall be made high,
Coutries shall be joined together,
The walls shall continue to stand.
How does our charm work?
Our sacred aha works well,
Cord of coco-fibre, cord of affection,
Cord of annexation,
Binding together two nations.
The virtue of the coconut continues,
The life of the land remains.
The burden is lifted We are free!

Chauncey Depew caught severe old
while attending the funeral OF President
Roberts, Of the Pennsylvania Railro al,
and he is now quoted as in favor OF
sboishing formal funerals. Mr.. Depew
figures 1t that of friends and mourners
many die as the result OF exposure at the
obsequies. The custom OF unoovering
the head at funerals is responsible for
many colds that have resulted fatally, and
this feature Of funerals may well be
abandoned. People go to cemeteries In
all Kinds of weather, and stand for some
time In the open air, while the last rites
are being paid TO deceased persons, when
every mark of respect might just as well
be paid within doors with safety to the
living. -Netcdrk AdrcrtiSer.

The Bordento,On Register once in q
while leaves 1t safe moorings OF neutrality
to take a sail in tie political waters. Its
compass evidently Is out OF order for it
points in the wrong direction. In its is
sue Of the 10Th 1t says
"The four years OF Cleveland's first
term were, to our mind, model ones. He
left office with the treasury OVERLOOKING,
and the credit OF the nation as it should
be-equal to the best In the world. His
retirement for four years was sufficient
not only to deplete the treasury, but to
pile up an enormous sum in the way OF
appropriations.
The Rc9iste, simply reiterates a stale
ment often made by Democratic papers,
which has no foundation in fact, but
which great many people believe.
When Grover Cleveland was inaugu.
rated March 4, 1885, there was cash bal
ance in the U. s. Treasury OF $l59, $685.
506.4l. When President Harrison sue
cceded him March 4, 1889, there was
cash balance of $ls3, 1927, 190.20. When
Cleveland was again inaugurated March
4, 1893, there was not ga depleted treas
ury" but cash balance of 1924, 1885,
oS7. $3.50, 900, 1924 less than he left
the incoming administration at the end Of
his first term.
The reason, however, that Cleveland
turned over to Harrison more money than
Harrison turned over to Cleveland on his
second term, is this Harrison during
his term paid of $3.50, 5sS, 900 OF the pub.
lie debt, while Cleveland during his first
term paid off only $143, 1874, 350-$s9,-
7O4, 600 less than in Harrison's, so that
''the overflowiug'treasury, such as 1t was,
was secured by leaving the public debt
unpaid. Ii he had paid of as great an
amount as did Harrison's administration
he would have saved the country about
81, 900, 600 Of interest each year.
We have no desire to disparage Mr..
Cleveland; but VIC object to having the
Harrison administration misrepresented
with the false story of "a depleted trea.

Congressman Phney, of this District,
few days ago, made another excellent
record by fighting and defeating an ex-
travagant appropriation in the interest OF
an electric light combination for the Dis
trict of Columbia, thus saving the govern.
ment thousands Of dollars. The Wash
ington Post highly commends his action.
Later on he made an able speech
against the extravagant appropriations for
rivers and harbors, etc, at a time when
retrenchment was demanded. His course
during this session has been consistent
with his previous record, and evidences
that the Fourth District has not only an
able member but one who represents the
sentiments of his constituency, who be-
lieve in economy and retrenchment.
