THE DIAMOND JUBILEE.

British residents are invited to at
tend meeting to be held tomorrow
evening at the Arlington Hotel to
consider what steps should be taken
for the proper celebration OF Queen
Victoria's Diamond Jubilee. 1t is
to be hoped that the gathering will
be large, influential and representa-
tive. In the spirit Of that true adage
that "too many cooks spoil the
BROTH" The INDEPENDENT reluctantly,
of course, for every busybody is
anxious to meddle, refrains from
making any suggestions at present.
1t prefers that a few long-headed,
common-sense men of business take
the initiative, and leave to Tom,
Dick and Harry to follow in their
lead and work up the enthusiasm
which should attach to so memoir
able an occasion, ono never to be re-
peatsd, perchanoe, in the worlds
history, and certainly not in the
career of any one living, so far as
England's throne is concerned,
1t is noted, however, that Sunday
the Goth is the day fixed for the re-
ligious services at the Frogmore
Mausoleum, at which the Queen and
Royal Family will be present, and
also for the special services at ST.
PauPs Cathedral, Westminster Alb
hey and other churches,

The religious intolerance which
is characteristic of our A. p A.
organs showed itself in a glaring
manner in their reports Of the Easter
services in our different churches.
A report from each church was
given at some length with the ex-
ception OF the Roman Catholic
Church., the church where Easter
sunday is the most important of all
holidays. The Roman Catholic
Church, however, will progress in
its path OF righteousness, charity
and true humanity in spite Of the
sIurs and insults of the A, p A.
Central Union organs; and if we
come down to mundane and secular
matters their friendship and support
is not to be despised in affairs
political. Probably the animus
against the Portuguese entertain
cd by the so-called official organs
has also something to do with the
disrespect accorded to the in
fluen tial church TO which so many
of them bel long.

The INDEPENDENT has Of course
not the "inside" track OF the Hawai-
ian-Japanese immigration business,
but to the casual observer it seems
remarkable, to say the very least, to
see the japanese Minister Resident
and the most Christian government
Of Hawaii agreeing to crowd into a
thirdclass vessel several hundred Of
japanese citizens, among whom it
has been proven that small pox
existed; and more over allow more
than 200 hundred Japanese so far
not within the line OF the epidemic
to take passage on the same vessel
with its infected human load. Such
an action does not speak we'll for
the Christian (0 government OF Ha-
waii or the non-christian represent
ative Of Japan.

1t is a well.known fact that the

many cases depend upon getting
telephone communication and es-
pecially in urgent cases under their

action yesterday of the Marshal, or
perhaps one higher in authority
might have ended fatally for
a patient, aud with very serious
result to our very best Govern

Ed. HE INDEPENDENT
This is--a very hard and weary
world for our mechanics who are
ont OF employment. Strangers note
with wonder aud approval the large
number OF buildings going up on
all sides, aud especially in the coun-
try districts and think that the
statement that very many whits
men in the mechanical trades are
out OF employment is au exagger-
alton, if not an absolute untruth.
But they fail to take into account
the vast amount Of constructive
work that is being done on such
buildings by Japanese and Chinese.
And they are ignorant OF the fact
that even the professed friends OF
the white mechanic are the very
men who find employment for the
Japanese to our exclusion and de-
trment
Let me recall to the memory of
my friends the following words
from the Evening Bulletin of as re-
cent date as the first instant. Here
they are as they appeared in print:

Of Hawaii to tell fbs to the Amer
lean newspaper men. 1t is so very
unnecessary also, for they arc ma

exaggeration and establishment,
and they carefully cultivate these
talents so that they may not "blush

itching palms crossed with the

NO ANNEXATION.

Yesterday the Advertiser publish
ed an interview had with His Excel
lency w. Owen-Smith, for the head
lines OF which His Excellency is not
to be held responsible. The most
fragrant heading is undoubtedly the
following; "Annexation now or
Treaty will surely CO." This is
probably aimed at the pockets Of
the royalists, who, it is supposed,
will fall down at the thought of
losing the treaty and accept annex
alton with all its possibilities for
mischief to our industries.

We are surpr rised that our hyphen-

Advertisers interview with him.
What matters it whether Mr.. Sher-
man said S55,00O000 or S3O,O00,OOO
had been given to Hawaii under the
treaty of reciprocity? Tho differ
ence is a mere bagatelle of $25,000,-
600, which persona non qrata Thurs.
ton brushes away with a sweep of
his pen in the sophisticated figures
recently published in the Advertiser
and the contemplate little Bulletin.

And now there are rumors that

lying to him about the large pro-

Quick Work.

Manager Paine Of the Tramways
Company deserves credit for the
speed with which the tram way track
at Leleo was removed into its now
bed aud for the consideration shown
to public traffic.
The track from the Leleo. hill on
King street, which is being levelled
was moved during The night to avoid
Interference with the traffic, and the
work was accomp plished from the

In spite of the very small assistance
offered by the Government King

The truth is, and no one knows
it better than His Excellency, that
the party of the other part will not
accept these islands, even though
Hawaiians ask for it. The United
States cannot afford to accept a
State the population OF which is
composed, as ours is, of large
majority of Japanese and Chinese.
And Mr.. Dole and his friends have
themselves to thank for the present
population.

Curd en- Phillips.

On Dec. Both of last year, the once
thriving mining camp of Bullion was
scene Of animation such us it has
not seen in recent years. Perhaps
the cause of it is already known to
oui readers but perhaps it may not
be out of place for us to reiterate once
more that Mr.. Alexander Garden. the
foreman aid manager of Mr.. E Rein
hart's ranch on South Fork and Miss
Emma Phillips were united in the
bonds of holy matrimony on that day.
After the many invited friends, who
consented to come, had arrived all was
in readiness and in the parlor at 6 p.
M, they were pronounced man and
wife by the FOoT.. John Dawson who
used the beautiful services of the
Episcopal church. Mr.. Joe Harris
and Miss Lulu Phillips were grooms-
man and bridesmaid.
After the wedding, supper was serv-
ed and more sumptuous repast it
has seldom been our privilege to see.
1t was we'll Oh toward the wee sma'
hours when all separated after having
engaged in rice throwing, fun-making
and dancing. Everyone saying. and
some swearing, that never had they
such a good time at any Like occasion.
Everyone wished the happy couple to
have just enough clouds, throughout
their lives as 20 make a glorious sun
set.
The groom is one of the thrifty
young men of Elko county and the
bride is the daughter OF Mr.. and Mrs.
Joseph Phillips OF Bullion. The
young couple start out with bright
prospects and the best wishes of a
host of friends. The INDEPENDENT
extends congratulations and joins in
wishing the happy pair pleasant
sail down the stream OF life.

Teachers, Inntitute.

Following are the proceedings of
the teachers institute omitted from
Saturdays report:
Miss Rose Gardner, teacher in the
Whine mucca school, read very IN
teresting paper on primary reading.
A. l.. Dornberger followed with a
paper on discipline. The usual
resolutions were then adopted and
the institute closed with music.
In the evening the teach ers attended
ball given in their honor and
danced the old year out and the new
one In.
Most of the visiting teachers left
for their homes on No. 4 yesterday,
but few fingered in town and de-
parted on No. 2 last night.
The Elko session of the institute ia
said by the Leading educatore pres
emit to have been the most successful
from an educational point OF view Of
any ever held in the State.
These meetings and exchanges Of
views on the work OF the schoolroom
are sure to make better teachers and
better schools. Their value to the
members Of the profession and the
children placed in their charge cam
not be estimated in the coin of the
realm, but are sure 10 leave lasting
impressions and eventually work out
great benefits to the schools of the
State.

teachers Of the State gather here
again in the near future.
