ALL SAINTS DAY.

This day which is devoted to
pav tribute to the dead is always
one of the feasts that draws to
town the largest number of per-
SONS from every part of the coun-
try, and Tuesday last, we noticed
in town fully two or three thou
sand pestons from the country.
They all visited the cemetery, and
deposited upon the graves of their
departed relatives and friends, to-
kens of remembrance.
That day is entirely given to
pay attention to the abodes of the
dead, and Offering prayers for the
repose of their souls, and on the
first day of November, the GENE
terry which is some time, very
often neglected during the year
is cleaned and transformed into
flower garden. The graves tina
are not remembered are only thos'
that have no relatives or friend
left to care for their resting places
and many Of the old tombs, un
marked, are unknown to those liv
ing today.

We learn that the attendance at
the High school in this town is
only attended by very few chill
dren. That school under the pre-
sent management does not seem
to be popular, and the cause for
that is probably the way the
school was conducted last year
when the children were allowed to
fight and insult the teachers, as
was the case with Prof. Sompay-
rae. The children of any and all
schools should always be under
the care of one of the teachers
even during dinner time or recess,
the children should never be left
alone in the school, because they
are sure to create mischief.

To Absorb The Philippines.
Picayune,

Picayune.
According to reports from Was
hington, the administration has
finally determined on the absorp-
ton of all the PHILIPPINE Islands.
This is to be accomplished not by
boldly talking possession and GUST
ing Spain, but by compromising
the latter for the REIMBURSEMENT
of the islands, or rather those
islands not already in our posses
sion.
As far as Manila and the Island
of Luzon are concerned, they were
in possession of the United States
prior to the time the knowledge of
the signing of the protocol reach
ed the belligerents. The other
islands, however, we're not in our
possession, it is claimed; hence It
would be unfair to GUST Spain
without allowing compensation.
From these reports it is likely
that the Philippine question is
about to be taken up by the Paris
Conference in the very near fu-
ture. Spain's position is hope
less one. If we demand all of the
Philippines without compensation,
she would be incapable of resis-
ting; hence, after a reasonable
show of opposition, she will no
doubt yield assent to the compen-
sation proposition, should it actu-
ally be made.
The payment of compensation
to Spain for any of her posses
sions will no doubt greatly COM
plicate matters in Congress. The
House of Representatives, as well
as the Senate, would have to au-
thorize the grant of any money to
Spain, and strong opposition to
any such proposition is certain.
The acquisition of the Philip
pines, while it will add some rich
territory to our already extensive
domain, will saddle upon US also
about 100000 of semi-barbar.
Gus people.

The Danger From The Rear.
Picayune.

United States Marine Hospital
Service, who was in this city last
week, arrived in Memphis after
having completed his southern
tour of inspection. In the course
of an interview, published in the
Memphis Commercial-Appeal, of
the 18th Of October, he said:
&" incline to the belief that we
shall have no revisitation Of the
fever next year, anyway, for the
reason that our past experiences
with epidemics are that they do
not come in succession. In 1873
that epidemic did not end the Wis
itation, but the fever return in '79,
but failed to appear in 1880. Take
the case of Brunswick in 1898. A
mild epidemic occurred there, but
no fever returned the next year at
all, and there have been other in
stances of this character. Again,
We are all anticipating a very Sc
we're winter, and that always mimi
mizes the chances of danger the
following year.
Up to the present time l have
never made any statement as to
where the yellow fever in Missis-
sippi came from, some of the pub
lished reports to the contrary not
, withstanding. The reason l have
made none is because l do not
know, and, therefore. could not
have stated that it came from New
Orleans. This question is being
closely investigated by men in the

The city will be mapped out

At the present time it takes

the new company.
Only white help will be EN-.

place of labor and does the work
much quicker and better.

Petty Officers

Petty officers and
men, allotment. ,695 S24, 800 90
The above allotment is about
500 per capita, or about three
and one. half times the amount per
head appropriated for the land
forces. A battalion of two com.
panies, comprising l6O petty offic
ers and men, would receive about
S1440 - something over 500 per
company - more than twice the
amount allotted to each company of
the state troops. In view of the
extensive seacoast and important
harbors it is believed to be for the
best interest Of the territory to or
ganize and maintain a battalion of
naval militia.
Now that the laws for the
future government Of Hawaii are
being formed, there will doubtless
be provision made for local mill,
tary to include naval militia. The
matter is being talked up locally
but no definite move has been
made. Capt. Frank b. McStocker
Evening bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1895-1912, 1898-08-25
ABOUT our NAVAL MILITIA.
II Is Now Receiving Popular Atten-
ton Locally.
Aid Rendered by Federal GoVernment-Capt.
MCStockT a Probable Leader In The Move
ments Organization in Near Future.

Now that the military matters OF
Hawaii are to be largely in the
hands of the United States garri-
son, attention turns to the organi-
cation of naval militia.
As a territory of the United
States, the local government will
doubtless be less ready to appro-
pirate large sums for the volunteer
companies. Furthermore as a
part of the United States, the ma
val militia is much more appro-
pirate organization, since this will
be one Of the principal naval ports
of the country.
For several years the Federal
government has been fostering
the naval militia organized by the
different States. This branch of
the citizen soldiery has been very
popular and as the new navy in
creases will become more and
more useful.
All constitutions, whether feder-
al or state, intend that there shall
be a federal army aud navy, and
that there shall be state military
and naval forces, which may be
called upon by their respective
commanders in chief for such
duty as circumstances and condi-
tons may require.
In broad sense the relations
of the state navies to the federal
government and their associations
with the federal navy should cor
respond with those of the nation
al guards to the regular army of
the United States, and the organ
ization, discipline and education
of,tbe state naval forces should be SO
broad and liberal that, in due
course, they will be as able to
meet the responsibilities of naval
warfare in protecting the people
and wealth Of the state as any in
dividuals or bodies have shown
themselves capable of in the past.
The last official returns of the
navy department show that in IA
states there are naval organiza-
tons, composed of 239 officers and
1889 enlisted men.
The general government has
further displayed its intention to
foster and encourage the naval re
serve movement by increased ap
preparations, by detailing United
States vessels for drill and instruc
ton, and by turning over to the
states for the use of their naval
forces such vessels, arms and
equipments as can be spared.
A ship has lately been furnish
ed the militia of Southern Cali
fornia and the Mohican will be
in all probabilit, The next to be
turned over to the naval reserve.
The general government makes
a generous Provision for their
equipment, and, when practicable,
places vessels at the disposal of
the states for training purposes.
The allotment to the various states
having a naval reserve is as fol-
lows:
