thing is right so long as you don't get
caught
Reform on the other hand does not
punish, it builds up. 1t develops and
influences character and from the most
unpromisng materials 1t produces good
and, at times, magnificent results.
What is required to be done with these
boys is to reform them. Naturally
everyone will say, send them to the Re-
form school, but the Reform school Is
not at present fulfilling its functions,
it is not in a position to commence work
upon boys of the wharf rat class.
This is certainly a strong argument
in favor of the new Reform schools, or
industrial schools as they will be more
appropriately named. Not only have
we our wharf rats, but there are hood
lum girls who ought to be looked after,
and who are further moral menace
to the community. To try to save what
is already lost is very much like Mrs.
Partington's effort to sweep back the
Atlantic with a broom. But to save
the rising generation, to put the youth
full feet, that are wandering towards
vicious paths into the paths of virtue
is practical and noble work. This work
our best and most earnest people should
devote themselves to, and their reward
will be-"duty done"

The Boer war is approaching the
acute stage. The latest news is that
General Methuen has won a victory on
The Modder River after a struggle
which lasted ten hours and is charac-
terized as the bloodiest battle of mod
ern times. There are, however, no de-
tails and the amount of loss on either
side has not been announced The
Beers retreated in good order evidently,
because they were able to beat back the
cavalry sent in pursuit of them. 1t is
more than probable that General Me-
thuen will have another battle to fight
before he can relieve Kimberley. Lady
smith has ceased to be the center of at
tention, and it seems likely that the re-
lieving column would be able to reach
that point without very grave fighting.

WHARF RATS.

A few days ago The Star called at
tentiOn to Honolulu's wharf rats, who
are becoming as great a menace as the
wharf rats of many another maritime
city. The police have been looking after
these young hoodlums with results
which have landed sixteen in all be-
fore Judge Wilcox. The batch which
was gathered in this morning number
ed eleven, all were above school age,
and all were sent to Jail for five days.
From the report, published in an
other column, it will be seen that there
is a regular wharf rat association, with
rules, bank and banker That they
are an undesirable element about the
wharves is very certain. Such class
is bound to furnish pilferers of mer-
chandise and to form for crime from
which will be graduated a thoroughly
criminal class. The enterprise of The
Star Reporter who unearthed this
plague spot is to be commended on
moral grounds.
But it is one thing to have discover
ed this, and quite another thing to
know how to deal with it. AS far as
the law goes it Furnishes the boys and
sends them to Jail. But what after?
Are the boys, after their legal punish
ment to be allowed to drift back into
the same manner of life. Driven from
their wood piles and old boilers are
they going merely to shift their quar-
ters and start on a similar career else
where? This is a matter for the phil
anthropic to attend to.
These young lads have several, if not
all of them, passed some time in our
public schools. They should be MAX
ing some use of the education they have
received, and by doing good work, be
returning to the State some of the
money they have had expended upon
them.
An enquiry should be instituted as to
who their parents are, and in what de-
gree these latter are responsible for the
conduct of their offspring. This COM
munity has been fortunate, hitherto, in
having very few criminals of home
manufacture. 1t is certainly necessary
to nip any criminal forcing house in the
bud.
But what is needed most is the work
of reformation. 1t is very seldom that
human being is utterly and irreclaim-
ably vicious and criminal. The prison
is not going to reclaim them. 1t can
only appear to them as an angry power,
and inculcate the doctrine that every

The failure of the Harper firm, the
oldest and best known bookselling and
publishing firm in the United States,
comes as a surprise to the general pub
lie, though there have been signs which
showed which way the wind was blow
ing. 1t is probably a case of dry rot,
and the impossibility of putting life in
to the moribund. Yet Harpers has a
grand record for enterprise during the
fifty years of its existence, and the
United States is indebted to the firm
for an immense advance in Literary
and Artistic effort. Both authors and
artists have received higher rewards
from Harpers than from any other
firm. There may be some chance of a
resuscitation of the firm under happier
auspices.
