CUBA AND THE AMERICAN ELEC.
TIONS

President Mckinley is confronted
with, among other troubles, the situa-
ton of the Republican party. The
hatred Of Spain, and the desire to liber-
ate Cuba is so intense, among the mas
ses of people, that the Fall elections
may turn on the Cuban question. AL
though there is a large and strong
peace party, in the country, it is not
a peace at any price party, and cannot
hold its own against the masses, whose
blood is up. 1t is evident that the
President does not intend to make any
error. His purpose is a fixed one, the
freedom of Cuba But he knows that
many forces are at work in Europe,
that are slowly bringing the Spanish
Government to an acceptance of the in
dependence of Cuba, if it desires to pre-
serve the Philippines, the remaining
islands of the West Indies, and, more
than all, get some guarantee of the
Cuban debt OF S4OO,OO0,OOO Should
Spain, at the last moment, concede it,
even after intervention is declared. it
will be a magnificent triumph of the
Presidents policy. War may be said
TO be inevitable, but even after inter-
vention is declared, it may be stayed.
This is possible, but rather improbable.
The Republican politicians fear the de-
feat of the party in November, if the
President makes an error. So does the
President fear it.

OBLIGATION OF RACES

If the native woman correspondent
of the Advertiser, whose clever letter
appeared in its columns, several days
since, would become familiar with So
cial life in other countries, she would
feel less bitterly towards the mis-
sionaries," who she believes, have not
acted with justice towards the natives.
1t is unfortunate that she and the ma
tives generally, believe sincerely that
the missionaries especially are under a
peculiar obligation to the native race.
They, as well as all enlightened people.
are under the strongest obligation to
act justly and generously towards the
race. But the natives, on the other
hand, are equally under obligations to
do very many things which they have
not done. No fair minded person. how
ever, insists that the natives, with their
Ignorance of obligations should he
measured by the same standard by
which the civilized races are measured.
We quote here an interesting item
which shows that women with the most
distinguished connections sometimes
have hard time of 1t, in America. The
daughter of an American President
asks charity of Congress, not because
she is really entitled to it, but because
she hopes that Congress will be gen
erous.
Senator Vest has received letter |
from Mrs. Letitia Tyler Semple, a
daughter of former President Tyler,
and now one of the inmates of the
Louise Home, requesting that Congress
give her an increase of pension. The
letter, which is very lengthy one, has
been printed by the Senate Committee
on Pensions, that body having voted to
increase her pension of SIS a month to
$50 month. She refers to the pension
granted last year to Mrs. cambridge. a
daughter of President Taylor. explain
ing that she and Mrs. cambridge stand
in exactly the same relation to former
Chief Magistrates. L ask that you OBJ
tain for me the same increase OF. pen
sion that Mrs. cambridge receives.
writes Mrs. Semple, for at all points
we stand alike, save that she has mar
ried again, and that / represent four
Presidents. James Monroe, William
Henry Harrison, John Tyler and Ben
jamin Harrison were cousins through
the Armisteads and Tylers of Vir-
ginia'
Mrs. Semple adds that her necessity
must plead for her, as her pension of
So month for the service of her hus-
band in the Mexican war is her only
income, and mentions the fact that
after the death of her mother in Sep .
TENDER, 1912, she assumed the duties of
the lady of the White House, and per-
formed them to the satisfaction of ALL

to Be Voted on.
The Miowera mail was not a large
one, but it contained one letter OF
great Importance to all citizens. This
was received by ]. B. Atherton and had
for enclosure a New York telegram
The dispatch was to the effect that the
advocates of Hawaiian annexation had
decided at Washington to push the
pending treaty to a vote in the Senate
This announcement, following on the
heels of the accepted intelligence that
the joint resolution was to be taken
up, created decided sensation and was
gladstone tidings to the annexationists.
1t is explained that certain Senators
who have been opposed to the treaty
in the past, have changed front on ac-
count of the foreign policy object les
son given them during the existence of
strained relations with Spain. There
was talk at the post Office of the out
line of the Presidents message, the
Chilcoot Pass disaster and the Andree
balloon and distressed Warrimoo"
canards.

THE WISE ADMINISTRATION OF
CHARITABLE FUNDS.

In civilized States there has been
much complaint that so many magni-
fieent charitable gifts fail to accom-
plish large results. These failures
have created prejudices against chart
table requests, Many rich, and profess
sedly pious men with worldly wisdom
decline aiding or increasing these gifts,
because they have no confidence in
their proper and best use. Those who
have been engaged for years in solicit
ing such gifts, know of this reluctance
only too we'll
Therefore when a magnificent chart
table use is created, like that for the
benefit of the Kamehameha Schools.
the public is under the strongest moral
obligations to use It's influence in favor
of the best use of the gift. To neglect
the matter, to refuse to interfere, is a
crime OF moral negligence, because if
the charity is not well administered, it
discourages the making of similar
gifts, and breeds skepticism in the
minds of men who have the means of
doing great good.
In suggesting that the Kamehameha
Schools, as we'll as other similar
schools, are not conducted according
10 the wisdom of the hour, it is done
with the consciousness that problems
of education are not easy of solution.
Any criticism moreover on present me
thOds, must suggest better methods, or
it is worthless criticism.
The younger natives are in a critical
condition. They face at least four
stronger races, that are increasing
rapidly. Friction between them in
creases. 1t is not the struggle of an
equal race, but weaker race. at very
close quarters. We are not discussing
the belief that the race will soon die
out. We assume, that it may continue
and, under the most favorable condi-
tions, hold its own, however improb-
able it may be.
Any error in the training of the
younger people of this race, involves
serious results. The old missionaries
did not have before them the prob
lem of today, the industrial and man
ual education of soft race, confronted
with at least four harder races. The
difficult problem is one of today, and is
before the present and coming mission
airy. When we see that the average ma
tive has less of the faculty of organi-
cation, than the average man of other
nationalities, we fear that he must go
TO the wall in the competition. When
it is said that the average native wo-
man does less sewing per day than the
average Portuguese woman, it means
another going to the wall on these
lines of labor
Under these conditions, we believe
that it is a correct proposition to state
that the manual and industrial educa-
ton of native youth, must be generally |
in industries which furnish products
for the worlds markets, and not for
the home markets, in which they will |
undoubtedly lose by close competition.
It is their only hope. Any depression in
the sugar business here, means general
loss of work by mechanics and seam
stresses, in the home market. The ma
tive goes to the wall first. If the native
goes to the wall, what are the benefits
of the great charitable gifts for their
special use?
If this proposition is true, the ques-
ton arises, are there small industries
