WATER TIE SOLDIERS

| 1t is a pity that our interest in the
soldiers In transitu has fallen SO low
that We cannot devise way to give
them comfortable and even necessary
baths, during the few hours in which
they remain in port. One of these
young enlisted men, in a recent inter-
view. said that on the trip across the
Continent and on the voyage from San
Fl -ncisco. the men suffered from the
dust, heat, and crowded conditions of
the cars and vessels. The sleeping
hunks on the lower decks were close
together. and at times the heat was in
tolerable; that many Of the men on
landing here desired fresh bath, and
cool drinking water. but that neither
were to be had without begging for 1t.
The cost OF erecting fifty bathing
houses near the coal sheds, and the cost
OF distributing pipes through them, so
that there would be an abundance OF
water for shower baths, is small. II
this arrangement was made fifty men
could battle together at a time, and a
regiment would be washed up in two
hours. Both sea and fresh water bath.
Ing could be provided for at .>akaako.

HAWAIIAN AMERICA "

Harper & Brothers have recently is
sued Hawaiian America" the author
OF which is Caspar whitney. The bool
Is admirably illustrated.
| On reading II. one IL surprised at th,
amount OF accurate information, and
the correct estimate OF men and things
which 1t contains. Mr.. Whitney is a
sponge in his capacity for absor bine
data OF all kinds. His visit in these
Islands was short. but he has obtained
and recorded in this book, a greater
variety OF information than has APP
peared In any OF the books which have
been recently published on the subject
of Hawaii. The material is well
digested. There are some inaccurate
statements.
Mr.. Whitney is not correct in stat
ing that Kamehameha II. gave land to
the early missionaries. with the result
that the children of these missionaries,
instead OF being sent back to America
remained on the Islands to be educated.
The King gave little, II any, lands to
the missionaries. The few small par
cells. OF no market value in the early
days. which the missionaries did obtain
were usually purchased for COW pas
lures and gardens. Sixty years after
wards some of these parcels became
valuable for cane cultivation. Many
or the children Of the missionaries were
sent to the American colleges, and
much personal sacrifice was made In
doing SO. The American Board of Mis-
sions established. at us own expense,
The Punahou school. now Oahu college,

for the adequate educa-
ion OF their children. 1t Is surpris- |
ng, however. that the errors in the
book are so few.

'ttempt to treat Hawaiian history as

TERRITORIAL RELATIONS.

The Advertiser, before the act of an
nexation, informed its readers that the
act. important as 1t was, would not
be an unmixed blessing. 1t would in
volve the repetition OF a truth ap-
parent to any one who observes the
outgrowth Of democracy as a ruling
agency. The condition of statehood Is
that OF sovereignty. shorn OF few Of
Its powers. The condition OF a ter
ritory is that Of entire loss of SOW
ereignty, and dependency upon Con-
gress. which is itself governed by the
moods and traditions OF the people.
Every territory would be greatly bene-
flied by special legislation suited to
the needs and character OF its own peo-
pie. But Congress. always fresh from
the people, who are not students In
the art OF legislation, has not gradual
ed from the best schools of political
science or of political economy, al
though there are many members of
Congress who are wise statesmen. The
British alone. after hundred years of
instruction, make wise special legisla-
ton. suited to the needs of each
colony.
Hawaii, it is probable, will stand as
the first experiment In special legis-
lation, in American history, unless the
other newly acquired territories take
the lead.
1t cannot be expected that the hand
full OF Americans who live here will
receive any special favors from Con-
gress. The Federal Government is now

made to hang in each room eight 22X2s-

ress of the pupils in design work, such
as attracted so much attention at the

seats 81 pupils. superintendent Viets
is building two-story, 2SX36-foot struc-
ture for the shoe and tailor shops and
the Soyd work, the latter to be made a
great feature in the local administra-
tion.
As there is no appropriation, the
building Is being made out of old brick
gathered at the pententiary and such
other material as comes to hand. The
structure is substantial and shows
marked ingenuity. The work is done
by school labor. The boys in the car
penter and blacksmith shops show re-
markable natural ability in their work,
especially in connection with the build
ing operations, and the kindergarten is
enlarged and vastly improved.
1t is Superintendent Viets' intention
to hurry on the plan of the new dormi-
tory. which will cost $4,000, and ac-
commodate 300 pupils; also, the $4,000
trades building, 192x32 feet, as soon as
the people in Washington can be in
duced to do something. Moreover, he
is laying out the grounds of the institu-
tion in commendable manner and
artistic style, relocating the carriage
drives and making such other local i'm
provements and desirable changes as are
bringing the Santa Fe Indian school
into most excellent repute.
