AN EDUCATED ARMY.

Some Of the American papers ask
why it is that in spite of the enthusi-
asm for the war, only 10000 men have
enlisted in the regular army, when
there is a pressing need of 5000, and
at a time too when the call for voIun-
teers is promptly met.
The failure to respond is not due
to any lack of patriotism on the part
of the young men. They prefer, how
ever, to enlist with their own assO-
ciates and companions and not with
strangers. They find comfort, and
strength in the hardships of war, in
the protection and friendship of their
neighbors. This motive is quite sufti
cient to fill the volunteer force at the
expense of the regulars.
Nor, at the present time, is the reg
u1ar army the proper place for young
men with education, or ambition to
rise in the world 1t is a refuge for
the disappointed, the unbalanced, the
drunkard, and the ne'er do well. Many
young men with fine parts enter it,
when desperate, and so do many
young Europeans who are willing to
serve for little pay.
The late General Terry proposed an
admirable scheme of organization,
which would. in time. have made
the regular army not only a formidable
military power, but a most efficient
school of education for the young. He
proposed we'll constructed encamp-
ments in each State, where young men,
unable to obtain higher education
might enlist for five years. Not only
were they to obtain the very best drill
of the soldier SO as to constitute a
regular army ready to take the field al
a moments notice, but they were tC
receive a thorough education besides
They would leave the army with eX-
celIent mental training. This system
of course, would make the officers
school masters, as we'll as soldiers
| The plan was, however, in advance
of the times, and has not yet been
adopted. A scheme of keeping a stand

There are, therefore, only 1854 pu-
nils of the Anglo-Saxon race on the
Islands. in the public schools, while
there are 1888 of the Hawaiian, Por-
tuguese. Chinese, Japanese and other
races.
The theory of instruction is based
largely. if not wholly on Anglo-SaXOn
methods and usages, many of them
traditional only, and existing by viz
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
fIuence of racial ideas that are not
Ang}o-Saxon. To what extent these
racial instincts, and domestic en-
yironments control the development
and character of these pupils we do
not know. To what extent the Anglo
Saxon theory and practice of educa-
tional instruction will modify or re-
move these racial instincts or habits
we do not know.
II is Il SUBJECT that has e1CCA $780,
little general attention here, although
some thoughtful and observing teach
ers have gathered valuable data bear
ing on it.
The Lieutenant Governor of Bengal,
a ruler over 100000 of people said,
some years ago, that the British in
undertaking to educate the people OF
India. had made the error of assuming
that the English methods of instruc-
tion were 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
taken. in proposing and creating the
most valuable system of education for
the large proportion of children here
who are alien to the AnglO-SaXon
race, but are now under its influences
Unless there are sufficient reasons
for not doing it, discussion of the
subject in the Summer School might
be of inestimable value.

THE HONOLULU LIBRARY.

There is an attack upon the manage
ment of the Honolulu Library, in one
of the evening papers. The charge is
that books that are wanted are not to
be found there The author of the at
tacks calls for more magazines and
popular literature.
Attacks of this character are always
made on every public library. 4 read
er wishes a certain book and cannot
get it. Then he makes the usual
charge of bad management and lack
of enterprise, etc.
The value of criticism on the man
agement of a public library largely de-
ponds upon the standing of the critic.
A bod carrier, or a jockey may call
for books on bricks or horses, and
denounce the best historical library
in existence, if such books are not to
be found.
We say, on the general consensus of
the opinions of those who have had
to do with libraries in the large cities,
that the Honolulu library is admirably
conducted. The selection Of books

is made with much care, and with the
purpose of making it, under the cir
cUmstanCe, the very best all round
library.
The public is singularly fortunate in
having an enthusiastic librarian, who
shows with her associates enterprise
in keeping the literature abreast of
the times
The criticism of the kind that ap-
pears in the evening paper is like that
of the California cowboy, who visited
New York, and entered Delmonico's.

Rudyard Kipling, in his poem THE
'Eathen," comments on the want of dis
cipline shown by the East Indian
tribes that attack the British, and the
reason why they are defeated. The
comments apply with much force to
the badly equipped Spaniards, and the
result will be the same.
