HE WANTS IT DOWN.
A Gentleman Replies to the Govern
ment on Its Own Ground

Said well known gentleman of ar
tistic taste to Star representative to-
day:
Having read so much about that
now famous tree, | walked little out
of my way yesterday and had look
at it from every point of vantage. Ia
ken by itself it is undoubtedly a no
BILE tree. But while / fail to see that
it forms very serious obstruction TO
the traffic, especially since an electric
light has been affixed to it, | cannot
discover any just cause for its reten-
ton. Although a great lover of ma
ture. / am decidedly of the opinion
that its removal will not detract in the
very slightest degree from the tout
ensemble of the landscape, and view
ed from a purely aesthetic standpoint,
the argument for its defense has not
a leg to stand upon. Let it come
down. N
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1898-01-21
THAT WHARF.

The question of the ownership of
wharfs has acquired great public at
tention. 1t is a question that will,
eminently, require the careful consid-
GRAFTON of the Legislature. In such
matter, the private rights, which may
have been acquired under previous
men in power, will have to be careful
ly considered, and the rights of the
people will also have to have consid-
Grafton. Mr.. Dillingham;, as represent
ing his company, has distinct claims.
These claims must be carefully con-
sidered. Mr.. Dillingham's interpreta-
ton of his own claims cannot be con-
sidered as the final say in the matter.
He has, with the assistance of his at
torney, presented very good case,
but it vet remains for consideration.
The members of the Cabinet make a
showing, as they say, for the rights
of the people, and all should at
least give the members of the Cabinet
credit for honesty. In this matter
The Star believes both sides are hon
est in their convictions, but this is by
no means the first case where two sets
of equally honest men differed and
differed in perfectly good faith.
There has been a certain amount of
heat and acrimony in the matter,
which is unfortunately unavoidable
in all matters-it is very hard, for in
stance. for The Star to make the Roy
alists understand that they are wrong
and it is right, and vice versa.
The question of the Railway wharf is
very much more easy to settle than
our great political question, and the
only place it can be satisfactorily
fought out is on the floor of the Leg
islature. In its present status and the
general views of the people, upon the
point, it does not seem wise to force
an issue, but, as said before, haste
should be made slowly, and the Leg
islature waited for by both sides.

FREE SCHOOLS.

The question of free schools was
brought before the Educational Com
missioners yesterday, and Commits
sioner Bowen spoke ably for Reform.
Minister Cooper seems to be averse to
the free school system at present, and
it is to be hoped that in his report he
will enter fully into his reasons for
the objection. The contention of The
Star is not that select schools are not
required, but that select schools should
not be supported at Government eX-
pense.
AS the case stands now the govern
ment says II win give you free ed
ucation if you are willing to mix with
the common herd, but | recognize that
some people in the community are too
good to mix with the common herd, so
/ will run a select school. To this any
one can go who pays fifty cents a
week, and some, if they cannot pay 1T,
I will admit from charitable reasons"
Now the State has no business with
the charity business. 1t should treat
all its citizens alike, and should not
establish class line. Let the Gov
eminent schools be free, and leave
the select schools to private enterpri-
ses. The government pay schools kill
private enterprise.
1t is to be hoped that Commissioner

LIGHT AND SHADE.

When one considers the advantages
difficult to imagine the frame of mind
which objects to that event. 1t is only
to be found in minds which do not
grasp the situation, which do not see
all the advantage is on the side of an
nexation, while there is nothing but
ruin and disaster on the other side.
A recent writer has justly said, "Un-
der the flag of the United States the
Islands will benefit in every way. Peo-
pie of desirable kind will be attract
ed, wealth will flow in, Improvements
will go forward, cable connections
with the great powers of the earth
will be established, and in very
short time, no other Islands of the sea
anywhere will show government so
well based, or population so prosper
Gus and contented."
This is no exaggerated forecast of
the future. With annexation these
things will happen. There will be a
boom on these Islands such as they
have never seen, and we shall all pro-
fit by the advantage, directly or indi-
rectly, every man, woman and child
on the Islands will profit by the
change. 1t is bright future.
But the other side of the shield is
not so pleasant. If those who are
working against annexation succeed,
property values will at once go down,
many businesses will be wrecked and
many who deem themselves prosper
GUS will go under. Directly or indi-
rectly every man, woman and. child
will suffer. Most of us do not realize
what stagnation in business means to
those who work for their bread. 1t is
many years since the Islands suffered
setback 1t is not a pleasant pro-
cess, when once it is seen, and one does
not like to contemplate it.
There will be some retribution
should such events happen, which
heaven forefend, that some of
those who have worked most earnest
ly to have the unfortunate happen,
will be those who will feel the mis-
fortune the most keenly, but however
wishes to see it.
That we shall hear decisive news up
on the annexation question by this
evenings steamer is very unlikely,
but we all shall be able to see better
how the campaign is going. The strug
gle to down Hawaii, to destroy her
prosperity, is going to be no child's
play. We have able friends, and we
have some very bitter enemies. The
opposing forces will be pretty clearly
lined up, and the waverers will be
making preparations to go one side or
the other. To those who can only LOOK
on and cannot lift ii finger either to
assist or retard coming fate, it is "A
period of weary waiting.
Hope, the best attribute of our ma
ture, springs up and bids us look on
the bright side of things, bids us see
the march of prosperity into our
midst, bids us to wait patiently for
the moment when the Stars and
Stripes will assure us of that CONNER
cial and social stability which every
man desires who has a family and
home.

TO HANG AS PIRATES.
Terrible Fate that May Be In Store for
Portland Boys.
(Kennebec Journal


Adjutant General John Z. Richards re-
turned from Portland Tuesday where ne
went to discuss with Commander husn,
U. S. N, in regard to the Monitor Mon
tauk matter,
The plan now in regard to tho manning
Of the monitor, is not to put aboard the
independent naval brigade which have
volunteered for service, as has been init
mated in some of the papers, but to select
a crew from among the National Guard,
such men as are used to the sea. 1t is
claimed that there are many good sailors
among the companies that are in the sea-
port towns.
1t is not known, however, just what
action will be taken as the pleasure of
the navy department. will be closely fol-
lowed, after the report OF Commander
Rush is made to them, and the comman-
der, it is said, highly approves the views
|of the matter taken by the Governor,
and the adjutant, general.
The patriotism shown by the Portland
young men in volunteering for service in
a naval brigade is surely commendable,
but they no doubt see why their services
cannot be available, as they could not
be mustered into the regular service un-
der the present laws, and would govern
itself, and without the protection Of the
United States. A naval gentleman made
the statement Tuesday that should this
company of loyal boys be put aboard
the monitor without being mastered into
the regular seryice-although such a
thing is unknown in the naval service
and if they fire1 upon Spanish ship,
if captured, they could all be hung at
the yard arm as pirates, without pro-
test being available from the United
States government.
Just at present it looks as though the
monitor would be a white elephant on
Names hands, as few expect war, and
it is not at all unlikely that the annual
encampment of educational Guard will
have to be abandoned this year in case
there is no war, for lack of funds.
The monitor will be armed and put in
to good condition by the navy depart
ment, before she is turned over to the
Maine officials. After that she will be
wholly at the ex pense of the state, and
it is estimated that it will cost fully
$4,000 a month to support her and her
crew.
Yet General Richards has not offered
sent to the state-although it has been
asserted that he has-as he fully appre-
ciates the good she will do Portland in
case of war.

MAINE BIBLE SOCIETY.

The annual meeting of the Bible Society
of Maine which occurs today at p. m.,
in the new Z. NJ. G. A. rooms is open to
all members of the society. Life members
and also annual members Of three years
standing. Their number in and about
Portland is large, yet the attendance at
these meetings is usually small, and
limited to few of the trustees. The
election of officers, hearing of reports and
doing the regular business of the society
is of sufficient Importance to call together
large number of the practical business
men who are interested in this good work.
And there is no batter work being done
in Maine in the interest of morality and
good government, or for the strengthen.
ing of the churches of the state.
