Man loves for sin: woman sins for
love.
The most Intellectual woman gets
down to the level OF a fool easier than
she stays up where she ought to.
II men understood how women rank
ed them IN importance with powder
puts and curling tongs, more Of them
would 80 on aad try TO make dogs love
them.
When a woman feels homesick she
believes nothing else could make her so
sad. but she gets q lot Sadder when she
can't hnd any excuse for feeling home
sick.
The reason u woman buys her Easter
bonnet 10 far ahead OF Easter Sunday
Is 60 that she can be tempted TO wear It
before then and observe Lent by not
yielding to the temptation until she
wants to.-NeW York Press.

agent for the use of the dredge in
case his firm should secure the
dredging contract from the United
States Government. Mr.. Hay
woods attention ives called TO a
news item in the BULLETIN some
days ago, stating that the Cabinet
had voted down a proposition to
lend the dredge to a private con-
tractor. He said in reply:
at would not matter what this
Government voted down with re-
gard to the dredge. OF course it
belongs to the United States, to-
gether with other public property
transferred by Hawaii. The
United States Government can
take it over if it chooses. How
ever, while the Hawaiian Govern
ment is using the dredge to deep
en- the harbor in different places
which ID incidentally an advan-
tage to the United States-it would
hardly be fair that the dredge
should be taken out of the Ha-
waiian Governments hands.
therefore, informed the ap-
plicant that I should not consent
to having the dredge loaned to any
private contractor. 1t is being
used for the benefit of the Ha-
waiian people and they should not
be deprived of its services, The
agent wanted this dredge on ac-
count of It's adaptability for filling
up the land included in the con-
tract.
my advice to the Department
was 10 the same effect-that the
people of Hawaii should not be
deprived Of the dredge while il
was doing good work for their
benefit"

Senator Hoar says that he
would handle the Philippines in
the same way Cuba is being treat
ed. He is simply approaching the
ultitnate conclusion by another
route. What the Filipino can't
do in the way of establishing a
satisfactory government will fill
volumes of history. The United
States will still stand as sponsor
for political and commercial con-
ditions and it will simply be q
matter of a few yearswhen Yankees
will have to step in and straighten
matters out. Even Cuban indie
pendeuce must henceforth be an
with an American
string tied to it, not unlike the
condition that existed many years
in Hawaii. The most unfortun ate
feature of Senator Hoar's conten
ton is that he is assisting in
harassing the President IN his
strong and correct policy of i'm
pressing upon the Filipino that
the United States is not a weak
ling like Spain.

WAKE ISLAND AND THE CONSTR.
TUITION.
(From the New York Sum-

VI lOii NliS lNCW lulh QUIZ.
Tho intrepid souls in Congress
who have volunteered as the For
lorn Hope of the Constitution
should charge with all their cbiv-
airy against the purposed seizure
of Wake Island by the Govern.
ment. IL Wake Island can be
conquered by the United States,
there is no limit to the march of
conquest, and Vest and Gallery
have been thrown away. Against
this conquest there are Constitu-
tional objections as grave as any
yet presented by the anti-annex
ationists.
The fathers never contemplated
the possession by the United
States of a cable station. Cables
and cable stations are distinctly
unconstitutional.
Even if cable stations were Con-
stitutional Wake Island could not
be taken save with a distinct pro-
viso that it shall be either Ter
ritory or a State.
The unconstitutional Pacific
cable, for the benefit of which this
unconstitutional island is to be
used as an unconstitutional cable
station, is to connect the United
States with unconstitutional Ha-
waii, annexed and governed with
out the consent of the governed,
and the Philippines, which are the
most unconstitutional of all uu-
constitutionalities.
The latitude and longitude of
Wake Island are unconstitutional.
The Bennington, which has
been sent on the high-handed,
unconstitutional errand, is flag
rantly unconstitutional. There is
no steam in the Constitution. The
makers of the Constitution never
provided for transportation by
steam. If, in obedience to an
autocratic President, an innocent
island in the Pacific must be seiz-
ed to crafty the lust for power, at
least the manner of the seizure
might have been made Constitu-
tional. Capt. Taussig should
charter a sailing vessel. Strict
constructionists might insist upon
a whaleboat.
II Wake Island has no inhabi-
tsnts, the seizure should not be
made until it has. Collector, of
guano may return there at any
time, and without their consent
they cannot be governed Consti-
tutionally.
Islands are unconstitutional.
The Pacific is Unconstitutional.
The fathers never did anything
for the Pacific. ..r,
We hope that the Hon. Joe
Bailey will rise against Wake
Island with all his heart and all
his shirt bosom, and he should be
assisted by the Hon. John Sharp
Williams, the patriotic Mississip-
plan anti-annexstionist, who says
that the flag sis nothing but
piece of bunting"

What Honolulu, the railroads
