c. p. HUNTINGTON AND EDUCATION

Mr.. c. p. Huntington, in his speech
to the railroad men In San Francisco,
made in the last month, discouraged
the higher education" He gloried in
the practical success of the Americans.
Without saying so, he virtually pre-
sented himself to the public as a
grand type Of the successful American; ;
Of the American who succeeds without
education. But the prominent edu-
Gators do not of course agree with him,
and tell him that his own lack Of edu-
cation makes him take altogether mar
row views Of the matter.
When Mr.. Huntington, with his as
sociates, proposed In 1866 to construct
a railway across the Sierra Nevadas,
he trusted to the educated engineers
to do what the common people said
was impossible. He made his fortune
out OF educated men. He was able, on
the other hand, without their assist
ance. to grab the bounties given by
Congress to the railways and do many
other things which the men Of higher
education often decline to do.
Mr.. Huntington has always, 1t Is
well known, taken rather extreme
views on the matter of education. He
is believer In useful education. He
would require, II he had the power to
do so, that every young man and wo-
man was carefully instructed in the
art of making a living. He was one
OF those who quickly endorsed the
plan of giving the young negroes an
industrial education, and gave eOnsid-
cradle sums for that purpose. He is a
steadfast friend of the theory of edu-
eating the young to increase their
wants, and Of educating them in the
ways Of supplying their wants. He
believes that much time Is wasted in
getting Quotations. That need not be
disputed. So there is much time vast.
ed In trying to make money. Mr.
Huntington knows that too. One error
Is as unfortunate as the other.
Mr.. Huntington likes to see success,
full" men, that is, men who have large
bank accounts. But he does not seen
to recognize the fact that the bank ac,
count fixes the mans character, just
as the Indian estimated the white
mans character by his ownership Of
rife
Mr.. Huntington Is nearly eighty
years OF age. He has for some tim,
presented the American people with
what Mark Twain calls picturesque
moral character" Probably If a vote
were taken on the subject, the major.
lty of the people would vote him to be
one of the great Americans. At the
same time his example is one that tn;
churches and the educators are con,
demning.

perior Of any vocalist that has been
heard IN Honolulu in months. She
wears stylish gowns and though
large woman is graceful and is OF
pleasing presence. Miss Brandes has

A FRUIT SUPPLY.


Col waring used TO tell the story Of
his visit 10 town In North Carolina.
where he found the drinking water
generally bad and malarial diseases
common. lie said 10 a merchant In
the town: Il see a iine stream of wa
YER not over half a mile from this
town. Why don't your people tap II.
and bring pure water TO your homes?
Il won't cost much to do It," We'll,

all turning yellow here. reckon
somobody'll come along and do II for
Us some day" But you are losing
health and comfort all the time said
The Colonel. IL reckon" said the mer-
chant, this community amt built for
comfort. It's built for the fever, and
| sell 'em quinine. More nancy In II
than in water"
The absence of local supply OF
fruit In these Islands suggests that
this community takes the same view
about comfort and health.
1t was thoroughly proven many
years ago, that excellent peaches may
be grown here. Instead of cultivating
them 50 as to obtain a large and cheap
supply, we import our peaches from
California and make them luxury
rather than common food.
In Spreckelsville. and in Paia, Maui,
there was lately seen the unusual
spectacle of Portuguese peddler,
with his wagon loaded with baskets
Of large. ripe, luscious peaches. These
he sold at fifty cents per basket, which
Ia about the price Of peaches on the
Mainland The quality Of this fruit
| settled any doubt about the capacity
of the soil and climate. Capt Makee
made the proof OF this at Ulupalakua
many years ago.
Tie fruit raisers complain Of the
high freight rates, which. they say,
deprives them of profit, and discour-
ages enterprise. 1t is said that the
| cost OF transportation is higher than
II is from San Francisco to this port.
Such rate may be excessive or II
may be moderate. The Central Pa
cific Company carries box of oranges
by rail for 5000 miles at a cost Of 20
cents. Nearly the same charge Is
made for only water transportation of
eighty miles in these Islands. These
facts do not justify a demand for cor
responding rates. The lnter-lsland
steamers would undoubtedly reduce
their freight rates provided the offer
of freight was largely increased. But
1t is in the power Of the navigation
companies to encourage the fruit and
vegetable trade of the other islands,
just as the American railways have
developed the same traffic between the
Southern and Northern States by
tempting the Southern farmers, with
cheap rates. to raise produce. SO that,
at the present time box of oranges
is transported over 1000 miles at a
charge Of 25 cents.
We have the fruits and vegetables Of
the temperate zone at a stones throw
from our own doors, and at any alti-
tude, but the cost of taking them the
distance Of the stones throw is excess
sive.

THE LAWYERS REQUEST.

President Mckinley will not be dis
posed to pay much attention to any
petition addressed to him by Honolulu
lawyers, asking him to consult his own
Attorney General about the extension
of the Constitution to and over these
Islands. The Attorney-General Is
| member of the Cabinet, in close and
constant communication with the
President. He advises the President
verbally regarding the construction
| that should be put on constitutional
provisions, and upon the effect of legal
enactments.
Whenever he delivers u written
opinion, II Is not because the Presi-
dent requires 1t for his own informa-
ton, but for the purpose of informing
the public as to the attitude the Pres
ident has taken. His opinion is that
OF the President, who Is his superior
officer.
II may be assumed that the Presi-
dent and his Cabinet have fully con-
sidered the relation of the Constitu-
ton to these Islands. He has adopted
a policy based upon that considera-
ton. 1t looks like a piece of imper-
Thence for any body OF men to ask
the President to consult his subord!-
nate about the relations OF the COnsti-
tuition to this territory, for the At.or-
ney- General only expresses the Presi-
dents views.
A request by few lawyers, asking
| the President to tell them what he
thinks about an important matter Is
an unprecedented affair. IL the re-
quest is made. he will probably reply:
Il am governing Hawaii under the
Joint resolution, and whenever events
call for definite action on my part, l
shall act officially. am under no OBJ
| legations to volunteer opinions on sub
jects not before me. II you have
doubts about the force and effect OF
the Constitution in Hawaii, 1t is your

for the purpose of intrusting him with

Poincare asked for time to deliberate
and will give the President definite
reply at 6 o'clock this evening.
Finally NJ. Loubet appealed to NJ.
Poincare's patriotism. and the latter
thereupon consented to consult his
friends. Although 1t is realized there
are great difficulties in the way OF his
success, 1t is the general impression
that II NJ. Poncare is in earnest he
