There are, therefore, only 1,lSi pu
pills of the Anglo-Saxon race on tn,
Islands. in the public schools, Will,
there are 1888 of the Hawaiian, Por
tuguese, Chinese, Japanese and Other
races.
The theory of instruction is based
largely, Il not wholly ON Anglo Saxon
methods and usages, many of them
traditional only, and existing by vir.
tue of Anglo-Saxon racial habit of
thought
We are confronted here with the
fact that over ninety per cent of the
children are under the powerful in
fluence of racial ideas that are not
Anglo-Saxon. To what extent these
racial instincts. and domestic en-
vironments control the development
and character of these pupils we do
not know. To what extent the Anglo
Saxon theory and practice OF educa-
tionai instruction will modify or re-
move these racial instincts or habits,
we do not know.
IL Is a subject that has attracted
little general attention here, although
some thoughtful and observing teach
ers have gathered valuable data bear
ing on it.
The Lieutenant-Goyern of Bengal,
a ruler over GO,OOO.00O of people said,
some years ago, that the British in
to educate the people of
India. had made the error of assuming
that the English methods of instruc-
ton We're sufficient for that purpose.
He was, he said, of the opinion that
the first step in the civilization of a
race, through an exterior influence,
was, to study and master the native
racial habit of thought in all things
This knowledge would reveal the weak
ness and the strength of the native
character, and indicate the special
kinds of education needed.
We believe that this view should be
aiken, in proposing and creating the
most valuable -ystem of education for
he large proportion of children here1
who are alien to the Anglo Saxon |
ace, but are now under its influences. |
Unless there are sufficient reasons
or not doing it, u discussion of the |
ubject in the Summer School might |
Dc of incstimable value.

New Public Work,

1t is understood that no public work
requiring funds from the loan act will
be undertaken till the annexation reso-
luton is disposed Of by the Senate at
Washington. In the meantime plans
will be made FOR the many and varied
projects set forth in acts to the Legls-
lature. The public work that has been
maintained right along will be con-
tinued with the current funds.
Further dredging Of the harbor will

Grinding Over at EVA.

The grinding of the 1878 cane
crop of Eva plantation was finished
on Saturday evening last and manager
Lowrie and the directors and share
holders are correspondingly elated.
1t was understood to be stated by
a heavy Eva stakeholder yesterday
that the sugar tonnage when the mill
closed down was about 1S,400. The
work of drying" is now under way
and will be for two weeks. The result
of this wifi be the raising of the total
output OF $4,000 tons-consideraDiy
more than any plantation has ever
produced on the Islands.

Colonel Parker and Mrs Parker re-
quire no introduction to this commun-
ity. Those who are directly engaged
in the education Of youth on these
Islands know of them too well to re-
quire any comments from us on the
character OF their splendid work in the
United States. We. therefore, say only
this that 1t is fortunate for us, and
most creditable to the cnterprising
spirit Of our officials in the department
Of Public Instruction, that their ser

EDWIN A. JONES.

| The services, yesterday, over one
born on this soil, descendant of one
of those whose feet we're beautiful
on the mountains" are memorable in
this that they were over the remains
of one stricken down in the very
prime Of life
he was at that fortunate age, when
| men live yet in hope, and have not
crossed the border to the domain where
they live only in memory Of the past.
He was at the creative age, and his
work lay before him. 1t was at the
age when the intellect begins to be
hardened by the fire OF experience, and
takes profit out of the wrecks Of the
earlier mistakes, and finds the road
TO wisdom by the light OF mature re-
Election.
Perhaps his intimate associates and
friends, those also whose blood was in
his veins, may truthfully say of him,
with Matthew Henry: 1.-THE flower
OF youth never appears more beautiful
than when 1t bends towards the Sun
Of Righteousness"
The grief Of his parents, the sorrow
OF his father recalls those words of
Edmund Burke, spoken in the British
House Of Parliament, a hundred years
ago, on the sudden death Of his son,
and which are a monument of pathe-
tic eloquence, and reflect the feeling
of every father, when he stands by
the grave Of one who should not pre-
cede. but follow him in the order of

The repairs for the Indiana's boil
ers were completed at noon on Sat
urday by the Honolulu Iron Works.
The whole power plant was then given
a thorough test. Soon after o'clock
the five transports again headed for
the sea and rapidly progressed into
the horizon till they were lost to view.
Though the five ships had rested or
laid some distance from the harbor,
many city people were out jim small
boats, launches and pleasure sloops to
shout farewells and to make final
exchange OF cheers. The engineers OF
the Indiana and others OF the squadron
of five hardly expected TO overtake the

vertiser. Arriving at the Indiana they
took on board Commander Morle OF
that vessel, Chief Engineer Boyling
and Captin Sawtelle, U. s. A. acting
quartermaster OF General MacArthur's
staff. The Eleu then fastened back
in the harbor up to the nearest landing
to the Iron Works where these officers
landed. Soon the machinists were
busy fashioning the iron into the
shapes required. The six screws which
were loose run between the combustion
chamber and the bulkhead. The plan
to repair these Is to cut the threads
on the ends of the bolts down and
make new nuts of smaller dimensions.
For instance six of them will be cut
from one and half inches to one
and three-eightths and six from one
and three-quarter inches to one and
five-eighths. To do this new dies must
be turned of hardened steel for the
bolts and taps or plugs for the nuts.

AMERICAN REGULARS.

We will inform the Star that Major
General Miles, the General of highest
rank in the American army enlisted
as soldier in the regular army
Abraham Lincoln, moreover, never
had the advantage of attending an
Academy, nor even, We believe, a COM
mon school. These instances of rare
promotion and rise are extraordinary
Any young man, sound physically
with a bad history, and Incorporate
habits makes an excellent soldier when
brought under strict disci lline, and
kept from the habitual Use OF liquor
Tommy Atkins" the British SOL
der, is rs brave man as lives, and
he has proved it many times on many
battle fields, but the universal testi-
mony from the Royal Commissions to
kiplings ballads does not give him
credit for much personal worth.
What the Advertiser has said about
the American regulars is based on the
official reports made to Congress on
the subject by army officers. When
an American accepts sl3 n month,
with little hope of rise in the regular
army, in times of peace, he proclaims
himself to be unequal to the task of
earning decent wages, and ceases to
show the ambition of the race. But
he makes a good soldier for all that.
The volunteer is a different man.

NO MORE LEGISLATION.

The Senate and House of Represen-
tatives, after playing on the public
stage for one hundred and twenty days
come to the foot lights, make their
farewell bows and close their last
night"
There is some rich food for reflection
in their acting. Impatient men have
often spoken harshly Of their methods
OF business, and their lack of harmony
with the Cabinet. But on the whole
they have been a fair sample OF repre-
sentative bodies, without parties be-
hind them, and sorely in need of a
Official boss" AS they had. outside
OF the question OF annexation, no COM
mon bond, or creed, or political music,
to which they could keep step, they
naturally got somewhat confused at
times, and took headers" at each
other. Some allowance also must be
made for the influence Of the tropical
climate upon their foreign natures.
There has been no charge, or sug-
gestion Of any dishonesty against any
member, and no doubt, each one in
his own way has sought the public
good, subject only TO such drawbacks
OF inherited cussedness which is the
lot Of all. There has been some log
rolling" but the logs have been com
parative,y small.
As the majority of the members were
fresh hands in driving the legislative
chariot, they naturally got off the
course at times, ran up against trees
and stumps, and tried to climb some
dangerous entertainments, but before
the session was through came down to
a safe jog
A fresh representative usually be- |
iieves that he has been especially Sc
lected as a telephone wire to convey
the voice of the people, which is the
voice of God, to the ear of the Exc
cutive officials. As time goes on, and
he discovers that the divinity of the
peoples voice Is more of a legend than
n truth, he "disconnects" the wire and
becomes weary Of transmitting the
voice of God" in this manner, and
proceeds to emphasize his own voice
instead.
The Executive, in spite of much un-
organized opposition, has carried
through nearly all OF its own meas
ures. Several experienced members of
the Cabinet are old leaders in keep
ing fractions members In line.

One matter it is giving attention is

Oray's Business Men.

The editor Of this paper recently paid
q visit to the town of Gray. This is a
very good business town. They have a
new creamery almost completed which
it is supposed will add to the towns
trade. We found Greenwaldt & Grotel-
uschen hustling machinery and hard
ware between the intervals of handing
out U. s. mail. Polzine & Fischer have
an excellent dry goods store and seem
to have a good custom. II. B. Shelley
also has good general store. James
Crow handles stock of hardware and
was busy. G. Eugene Mertz the popu-
lar druggist. had time to shake hands
between his acts of compromising medi-
cines. He has an elegant store and a
good trade. F. G. Hepp was wrestling
over wheel, but was keeping his tenn
per admirably, as every good wheel
wright and machinist does. He is put
ting in new gas engine getting it from
Jefferson. The genial George Gray, the
father of the town, is the grain buyer
and does very heavy business. DIR.
Beers was away on professional work
He has large practice. Geo. p. Wiley
was busy in the bank. He not only acts
as cashier and does it well, but has
quite growing real estate business.
Mr.. Mohr, new man, but good bus
mess man, manages the. Green Bay
lumber yard j. B. Cambell has a good
blacksmith shop north Of the main
street. DIR. Antrim, veterinary surgeon,
successfully handles the livery business.
The jovial j. w. Lancelot is the pro-
fessional life insurance man, doing a
big business for the Woodmen. Time
fails us to mention others of the town
aid country around which go to make
Gray one OF the best localities on the
North Western line. Many very sue
cessful farmers have their homes near
and do their trading there.

About Advertising.

There are some people who say they
do not think much of advertising. The
trouble with them is they look through
peculiarly colored glasses. 1t makes all
the difference in the world how you
view thing, or from what point.
We contend that no person is in any
public business for any time without
advertising. He advertises when he
speaks to his neighbors about what he
has to sell. or when he places his wares
in his show window to display them. All
there is in it is that men have different
ways OF advertising, or speaking in the
public ear. Some prefer hand bill to
scatter on the street, others sign paint,
ed on the fence. But we have yet to
find the man who, on sober second
thought, would say he has no desire to
advertise in any way.
Such man might as we'll say he had
no desire to communicate to his fellow
men concerning his business. If man
loses his wish to employ the means OF
communication with his fellow men with
which an all wise providence has en-
dowed him, then he may justly conclude
he doesn't want to advertise. Then he
isn't business man.
1t is conceded in this day and genera
ton that the local newspaper is the best
existing medium through which the
merchant or business man can reach the
public. The bright and progressive
local paper is read by all classes of PEG.
pie because of interest in local news
The business man cannot find another
medium communicating with the pub
lie which is so good or SO cheap. Those
who succeed best in business are EN-.
ploying this means of advertising more
and more.
