Bishop Walters's Address Endorsed.


Bishop Walters's Address Endorsed.
The report Of the committee OF the A.. NJ. Z,
Zion Church. now in session in Jersey City, on
the state of the country was the occasion OF
much discussion yesterday. As it declared
that the condition and prosperity Of the
country are gratifying G. the conference refused
to adopt it until the Chairman OF the commit
tee. the Rev. j. II. Anderson. added to 1t an
Endorsement OF Bishop Walters's address OF
last evening. in which he arraigned the South
for the burning to death OF Sam Hose.
AS the address delivered by the Bishop had
not. as is the custom. been Endorsed by the
conference. the delegates and ministers voted
for the adoption of the report, as they were
fearful lest a vote TO. the contrary would be
interpreted as n refusal to indorse the Bishops
address. The members of the conference ex.
pressed themselves as heartily In accord with
the Bishops address. but took occasion to
severely denounce the attitude of the Govern.
ment in its war against the Filipinos. and
declared that the Government could offer no
apology for that attitude while Americans were
burning men to death in their own country.

The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1899-09-21

Judge Simeon Baldwin OF the COnnec-
ticut Supreme Court certainly advanced
a startling proposition at the Bar AS
ISOLATION meeting at Saratoga lately in
his paper MANS Natural Right to a
Natural Death" But on closer eXamn-
alton it will be seen that it is startling
principally because it is new, because
he has called attention to the fact that
there is difference between seeking to
restore health that life may be lived as
well as merly prolonged, and merely
prolonging vital processes to no end
but keeping up the capacity to suffer.
That the distinction has not been made
before is probably due to the fact that
the science of medicine in its researches
and experiments to find healing, curing,
health restoring methods has had TO
work along the lines of preserving, aid
ing, restoring vital processes. The eff
cheney of the method to do this has
been the main subject of inquiry, and in
attention to that, the fact that under
some conditions they can only work out
prolonged capacity to suffer has been
lost sight Of The question raised is not
primarily one of medical practice OF
medical ethics. 1t belongs to the gen.
eral domain of ethics and humanity anC
will have to be settled on the principles
of ethics and humanity.

MODERN POSTAL SYSTEM.

1t is little over fifty years since Row.
land Hill succeeded in securing penny
postage for Great Britain. Penny Post
age may, in many aspects, be consid-
cred the beginning of the modern postal
system. Few institutions have shown
greater development than the modern
postal system Few have had a greater
influence for good, for progress, for adj
Vancement. The establishment of the
Universal Postal Union has had u
greater influence for peace among the
nations than probably any other one
thing. 1t is doubtful if the late Peace
Congress at The Hague would have
been possible if the civilized nations of
the world had not become accustomed
through twenty years or more to meet
through their representatives in con-
ference regarding postal matters.
There is no system of business, prob
ably, that is so wide spread so full of
detail, so premeating; that reaches and
touches and serves, and serves fully so
large a proportion of the human race,
that joins and holds the ends of the
earth together; that is so complete a
symbol of omnipresence as the postal
system. There is probably no institu-
ton that ministers to as great a variety
of wants as the postal system. There
are few, if any, appliances of modern
civilized life that we could not more
readily dispense with than the postal
system.
The postal system is standing refu-
tation of the assertion that public utili-
ties cannot be as we'll served through
public administration as by private en-
terprise and for private profit. Almost
wherever men who write letters or read
newspapers go, the postoffice precedes
or Immediately follows them. Whether
it be in the Klondike or the Philippines,
the mail carrier and the postal clerk is
a pioneer.
While serving the greatest ends, the
postofice and the postal system serves
equally the humblest While reaching
out for new territory and new people 10
bring within its realm, it is no less con-
stantly striving to improve the service
in old territory; to intensity its useful
ness.
In no respect is this more strikingly
shown than in what is called Rural
Delivery" This is new feature of
postal service in the United States not
yet more than two or three years old,
still in the experimental stage, and as
yet by no means general, but extending.
Rural delivery is an extension of the
free mail delivery system of the cities
to the country. Wherever it is adopted
it means daily delivery of mail matter
to the homes of the people in the dis
trict served, There are several regions
in California, one of them including al
most the whole of Santa Clara county,
where rural delivery is in vogue. I'LL
nois, Notwithstanding the character or
its soil and climate, is such that bad
roads are expected If not inevitable,
during a part Of every year, has been
foremost in securing this service. There

Only last week we examined the beer
brewed by the Capital Brewing Com
pany of Olympia, Wash, and it is a
perfect illustration of the quality of
beer which we are always glad to COM
mend for the analysis showed it to be
entirely free from any trace of any in
furious substance. Such a high grade
of beer is most beneficial in it's use, for
none of the pure malt and hops have
been displaced by harmful ingredients.
Every hygienist will concur with us in
saying that a beer of such superior ex-
cellencc is a very wholesome beverage.
Physician often have occasion to pre-
scribe a pure beer for cases of debilita-
ton, and they can safely order this
beer, made by the Capital Brewing
Company.

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 81 1899.

The forecast of conditions that would
precede and follow annexation made by
Father Damon more than forty years
ago, and republished in another column,
will be read with great interest, not
only by old residents, but by many
others. That so many of these predic-
tions have been verified, speaks volumes
for the clear and comprehensive insight
into the destiny of the Islands which
Father Damon had. There is much in
struction even for this day, in what he
said in 1852 Even where his predic
tions have not been verified, it is not
because he did not justly appraise the
influence of the conditions it was pos
sible for him to know, but because of
the effect of factors which have come
into existence since he wrote.

are now several large agricultural dis
tricts i'm that state which enjoy rural
delivery, and the number of districts is
constantly increasing, There is scarcely
a state in the Union that does not have
rural delivery in some section of 1t.
with federal legislation for Hawaii
and the extension of the federal de-
partments jurisdiction to the Islands,
one of the first things that may be ex-
pected is the introduction of free de-
livery of mail wherever there is any de-
sire for it. The facilities for improving
the postal system here under federal
operation, will be greatly increased, and
it is probably that in no other one re-
spect will the benefits of annexation be
more individually realized and felt than
i'm the postal system.
