the child If he did not want to take a walk

The drug store of OFF & Vaughn at Fourth

in the basement yesterday morning which
caused loss of some $500. The smoke and
fumes occasioned by burning chemicals
made the work of the firemen dangerous
The fire was eventually extinguished by
chemical engines and much property saved
through no water being used. 1t is thought
the fire was caused by the electric wires
running into the basement. The loss is en-

RAILROAD RECORD
Soldiers Expected at 6 O'clock This
Evening-Track Notes

The three trainloads of soldiers coming
from the east en- route to San Francisco
and the Philippines will arrive here some
time this evening. They left Ell Paso at
1890 yesterday morning. The usual run
ming time from that place to this city Is
twenty mine hours, but these military trains
are very heavy, and do not make fast time.
so 1t is thought if they reach here by 6 or Z
o'clock this evening it will be fairly good
time. The gentlemen of the war board
and the Red Cross ladies will notice that the
men will get here just about dinner time,
but the question of their getting any dinner
at the right time depends largely on the ac-
ton of local patriots, who can see that
Their, is some glory and much satisfaction
in furnishing good things to eat for the
men who are to fight.

cation of a new directory for 1888.
II is intended 20 make this the most
complete compendium OF information
ever issued in these Islands. Besides
the usual alphabetical list Of names
the book will contain statistics relating
TO the various Island industries, i'm

regulations, digest of land laws. de-
scription and historical matter relating
to the Islands. information relating to
the various societies and religious or
CARNATIONS, extracts from the Census
returns, an fact everything that goes to
make a modern up-to-dare Directory.
The publication will be essentially a
home one, as the canvass will be made
by Island boys, and tho printing and
binding by the Gazette office.

years. experience in the preparation of
Directory matter, here and abroad, will

THE YOUNG PORTUGUESE.

While MIR. LOwrie, in another column
expresses the opinion that the Portu-
guese may do well on the plantations,
he does not explain why they steadily
get away from them. Nor does he seem
TO be aware of the great changes in
character of the Portuguese people.
The majority of Portuguese immi-
grants could not read or write. Within
16 years only. $500 children of these
immigrants have been born here, have
had fairly good food, the best of eli
mate, and we, the dominant race, have
given them the same education which
makes children in America desire and
demand much better environments
than their parents have. If we ex-
pected to keep these children, as a
class, on the plantations, we should
have kept them in ignorance, and
want We have made them ambitious
The dangerous class in India today is
that Of the Indians educated under
British rule. AS the young Portuguese
mature, they naturally refuse the plan
tation life, because it is, they say, hope
less. They can purchase no land. On
the majority of the plantations they
are forced to associate more or less
with the Asiatics. They are subject to
lunas. They struggle for better condi-
tions. If these are refused them, they
become dissatisfied citizens. AS voters
they will side against those whom they
believe Cypress them, even if they do
not.
1t is this rapidly increasing number
of young Portuguese that must be pro-
yided for in some way, if they are to
become and remain good citizens No
doubt a reconstruction Of the planta-
ton system might Improve matters, but
the needs of the plantations, as now
conducted, will keep the Asiatics in
keen competition with them.
1t is a hardship that we should edu-
cate these children, teach them to have
wants" and then bring them in con-
tact with THE cheapest Asiatic labor we
can obtain. We are not criticising the
men who carry on the sugar industry.
But we state simply a condition.
Several of the intelligent young Por-
tuguese tell us that they cannot buy
land on this Island excepting at ex-
horbitant prices. There are only 43S
Portuguese ownJ@s of real estate in the
Islands, out of the 10, 1911 Portuguese in |
habitants. Events will make these
young people dangerous class in time, !
unless some sort of craftsmanship |
shows them way of becoming con- |
tented. To do this, is not a missionary |
affair, but matter OF self-preservation |
to even the sugar industry.
We are educating these young people !
to become, under certain circumstances |
a dangerous class, or under other cir
cumstances to become a most desirable |
class. But it looks as if they were al
ready educated beyond the plantations, !
as now con Quoted.
