CLOSED.

The Japanese incident is closed and
there is no use crying over split milk.
The subject has been very clearly be-
fore the public, and the reasons for
the action taken by the Hawaiian gov
eminent at the time have often been
ventilated. 1t was no political move
made for effect, the Hawaiian gov
eminent acted in perfect good faith,
with the object of preventing this
country being overrun by a horde of
| impecunious laborers. The law of
the country supported them in their
action, and when the matter was laid
before the Executive at Washington,
Judge Day, who carefully examined
the evidence, was of the opinion that
the Hawaiian government was dis
! tinctly in the right. But circumstan-
ces alter cases, and what seemed right
some months ago, does not seem, so
now, or rather it is more polite 70
take the course now taken. The po-
sition of the government in this mat
ter is very much that of having won
victory and then having to restore
what has been gained and pay an in
demnity to boot. AS to the causes
for the action on the part of President
Mckinley, they have not been laid be-
fore this government, but we can rest
assured that they were good and suf-
ficient.
One thing we can learn from the
incident, and that is that it will be OF
immense avantage to us to belong tC
great power instead of tottering
along as a weak one. The path of d
little Independent state, such as Ha.
wall was, is beset with difficulties that
may grow into serious questions
which great power will simply push
aside as not worth consideration.
Those people who considered that
Hawaii could be satisfactorily con

The Board of Education seems to be
rather dilatory about the appointing
of the travelling Normal Instructor.
There are several able educators who
could fill the position with advantage
to the teachers and to the public. 1t
seems almost invidious to pick out
any particular one, but the probable
ity is that no appointment would be
more satisfactory than that of T.. II.
Gibson. He has had a long experience
of just the kind of teaching necessa-
ny in the public schools, and when
in charge of Waimea, Kauai, was re-
markably successful. His residence
in Honolulu and his supervision of
the Honolulu schools, has added large
ly to the technical knowledge he al
ready had, and he is further person
ally popular among the teachers.

The meeting of the Aloha Alma So
ciety last evening shows that the Ha-
waiian accepts the situation as 1T
stands and is ready and willing to be-
come a good and faithful citizen of
the United States. When j. r. Kau-
liza tells his conntrymen that the mon
archy is gone forever, the probability
is that very few indeed will believe
the stories of restoration which have
been insidiously circulated by ire
sponsible parties during the last few
days. The Hawaiians realize the SIT
uation and will come right into the
fold. There is one thing to remem-
Der, and that is that there are some
very astute politicians among the men
of Hawaiian blood, and that some
people who seek office will have TO
hustle.

Kuhlow's, one of the foremost Ger

trade rights and privileges for all
This does not sound as if the Germans
objected to the United States holding
Manila. But then German trade may

In nineteen of the provinces of Rus
STA there is at present the most dread
full suffering. The crops failed last
year, and as a result the people just
managed to get through the winter,
but are now in state of semi-starva-
ton. The bread these poor creatures
have to eat is composed of the bark
of trees, leaves and chaff mixed with
flour Many hundreds have died of
disease caused by poor and insuffici-
ent food. The government is now dis
tributing both food and clothing, us
ing the military for the purpose. But
in these days of quick transport, and
with the knowledge we have of prop
er methods of cultivation it does seem
almost incredible that a section of
country inhabited by some forty mil
lions of people should be in a state of
starvation,

Christmas Eve
BY Mary n. Prescott.

By Mary N. Prescott.
Christmas eve the wide world over.
And Christmas chimes are sounding;
Christmas trees their buds discover,
With Christmas gifts abounding.
The moonbeams on the snow-drifts
shed
Strike out sudden splendor;
And all the heavenly fields are spread
With starlight bright. yet tender.
The window-panes are white with
frost.
In tracery OF flowers,
Bringing again the summers lost
To bloom through Christmas hours
o, happy night, whose blessed days
Across the ages shine.
Lighting the darkness of our days
with promises divine!
