A LOT OF SIGNATURES.

Upon the death of Regina Diexner
which occurred recently at the age OF
Ill years, in South Hungary, her rela-
tives inserted this notice in the local
paper: Filled with grief, We inform
all relatives and friends OF the de-
cease, on the Goth of last month, of our
beloved mother, mother-in-law, grand
mother. great grandmother, great.

THE SUSPENSION OF LAW.

A Subscriber" living on Maui
asks If President Mckinley has DELHI
erately violated the Constitution OF
the United States in suspending the
enforcement of the election laws.
Whether he has or has not, is not a
vital question at present. 1t might
however, become an important ques-
ton, If Congress refused to legislate
on Hawaiian matters during the next
session. The probabilities are that the
necessary legislation will be passed.
The Advertiser stated that by Joint
Resolution, the municipal laws of Ha-
wall become laws Of the United States
and these laws require an election
There Is no power whatever given to
the President to suspend them, even
II they are useless. provided they do
not conflict with the Constitution or
the Resolution. AS no one claims that
they conflict, they are in force appa-
rently.
The reasons for the Presidents ac-
ton are not published. They may be
good ones. An election Is not desir-
able. II Congress should fail to pass
an organic act, there would be some
trouble in the local administration,
but there would be a way opened for
removing il.

WATERPROOF.

The experiments made by NJ. Ber-
thier of Paris have resulted in the
discovery of a simple method of i'm
parting to clothing fabrics the quality
of repelling water and yet admitting
air for ventilation, the basis in this
case being the use of wool which still
contains the animal grease. Tests
We're made with lanoline, a product OF
the publication of this animal grease,
deprived of soap and acid fat and
made neutral The results were very
favorable, and the impermeable effect
was secured by a mixture of ten to
twenty grams of lanoline to 1000
dissolvent, this spreading itself rap
idly In the tissue and evaporating
quickly; the impermeability OF the
material Is insured either by dipping
It in the mixture for a few moments
and then wrlnging out, or by applying
II with sponge To the surface. the
last process being the more economi-
cal, but not SO satisfactory as the first,

lieves in the interdependence of man

is TO create resources for women 10 or

possesses more than man. the power

ton.
1t Is along these lines that the edu-
cation OF women should push. With
wOman's dominance in this direction,
her control OF the ballot box becomes
incidental but not the less effective.
II in the evolution of harmonious
interdependence political changes are
necessary. man will secure them in
the common interests OF both. Women
may not vote, but may be the inform.
ing spirit, and directing power in the
social aspects Of political institutions.
In spite Of the wonderful progress
made in the education of young
women, they remain, and will remain,
in state Of arrested development for
another generation. The ignorance
and prejudice of the average mother
Of the present generation is so great
in relation to the physiological side OF
woman's life, that 1t will take another
generation for the young women to
get rid OF the false and fatal ideas re-
garding marriage, and woman's mis-
sion, which now cause so much suf-
fering and unhappiness.

A NEW OCEAN FLYER.

A New York Italian has invented
what is called sea train and is said
by the New York World to be negoti-
'ating with the Italian Government for
a test of its merits. Dry batteries will
be used, and the electrical propelling
machinery is specially constructed
for lightness of weight and tensile
strength. The shell is to be OF the
finest steel and aluminium, each part
weighed carefully before being fitted
into place to secure exact results. The
displacement will thus be reduced TO a
minimum, the idea prevailing all
through the construction being that
lightness will conduce To speed fully as
much as power. for great power In the
usual ship indicates greet weight and a
retardation, The inven-
tor says he will not, however, sacrifice
any needed power by reducing the
weight of the propellers. A deep CEN
terboard will give steadiness 10 the
craft In all kinds ~ weather.
As u passenger ship the vessel will
have a speed of from sixty 10 100 miles
an hour, floating easily on the surface
and utilizing all It's energies for speed
Safety is secured IN the use of two

THE BISHOP OPPOSES.

The Bishop of Honolulu, like the
darkey who was never happy unless
nagging his mule, has again been
pouring sand into the machinery OF
the English Church.
In the Diocesan Magazine he says
he is willing to turn the Anglican
Church over to the American Church,
provided the American Church will do
what he asks them to do. He eX-
poets and demands that the American
Church will maintain Bishop here,
and IL it won't agree to do that, and
Incorporates the See of these Islands
with the Bishopric of California, he
will not permit, II he can help 1t, the
transfer ofIthe Anglican Church prop
erty to the American Church. Even
II this territory Is American, he will
dictate to the American Church what
1t must do, although the authorities
OF the Established Church in England
do not agree with him. While 1t is
no affair of his what the American
Church may do in these Islands, he
intends to make fight up to the
last moment He even censures the
Society for the Propagation because it
does not agree with him.
or course, the property of the An
glican Church will be duly transferred
to the American Church. What, then.
will the Bishop do? How will he get
eyen with these great churches thar
won't take his advice?
Since Signor Marconi has sent mes
sages through the air on electrical or
ethereal waves, by the use of the cells
OF an ordinary galvanic battery, and
without wires, the question is again
raised whether or not messages can
not be passed through space. for great
distances, from brain to brain, with
out any physical communication.
II the Bishop is knocked out OF his
high Office here by the American
Church, there Is no reason why he
should give up his mission of being
an Apostle OF Discord in these ISL
ands. Let him choose an elevated point
ON this Island, as Marconl would
choose one. one OF the peaks OF the
Waianae range, for instance and

THE STOCK MARKET.

The disturbances in the stock mar
ket show that the organizations of
stock companies, with large capital
ization, for the development of the
sugar industry are not on a sufficient
ly broad basis.
The people in these Islands, who are
willing to take up some ten millions
of stock in the new corporations, did
not command enough ready capital to
meet promptly the assessments which
were inevitable. Those who had any
knowledge of economic laws saw this
In the beginning. Unfortunately the
theory on which subscriptions to
many millions of stock has been made
was that everything must go up In
price" But few cared to study the
situation.
The correct and safe course to be
pursued in the quick development OF
the sugar industry was, and is, to
draw the capital needed from some
foreign source, which has 1t in abund-
ance. The most available source is
in the San Francisco money market.
While that market Is almost insignifi-
cant in comparison with the money
near at hand. and the reputation of
the value of our sugar industry Is
well known to many leading men who
control large capital there. The only
sound scheme was, to have educated
the people Of the coast to invest in
our properties. To do this successful
ly required time, and the assistance Of
the mOneyed men of the coast. They
should have been invited. and per-
suaded even II 1t took many months
to do SO, to come into the new planta-
tiOns on bottom figures" They
would, In time, have educated thou
sands of investors on the coast and
elsewhere to purchase shares in the
new projects. The shares of these
new plantations, instead of be-

Judging from the large number OF
professionals here. the Fall must have
been a heavy one in these tropical
parts. and the thud OF Il startling. II
Is clearly not for their interests to
restore the purity Of the Garden o;
Eden, as II would take the bread out
Of their mouths. as class they
should be profoundly grateful that the
Fall" occurred and gave them an
opening for business.
The lawyers have now organized
themselves into a Bar Association,
and 1t will be most excellent body
for experimenting and watching leg
islation. II must not be understood
that 1t Is at all in the nature Of a
trust, because lawyers dislike trusts,
and prefer cash. While the law is al
ways uncertain, and the way judges
will decide case Is, in many cases, a
toss up" the certainty of the fee
should remain the unchanging founda-
ton upon which the profession
stands.
DR.. johnson said the lawyers were
only actors. who assumed different
characters, as they were paid to as
sumo them. and when they closed
their parts they changed their cloth
ing and waited for new engagements,
SO that a lawyers wardrobe was the
most diversified in the world. But in
all time, they have faithfully and
most diligently acted their parts, with
gain to their clients and security to
society.
The Hawaiian Bar Association has
elected excellent officers. In the an
cient Scotch churches. when deacon
was elected, he was furnished with
long pole. with which he could reach
and prod the sleepy, the irreverent,
and the riotous members of the con-
gregation. The Association has now
put in the hands of President Paul
Neumann pole with which to reach
the delinquent members of the Bar,
and compel them to maintain the dig
nifty Of the Association. Perhaps this
office is only a stepping stone. First
a terrapin-then cherubim," says
the old chronicle. What shall be the
next evolution, the Bench or the Gov
ernorship? or, has the genial presi-
dent new plantation up his sleeve"
which the Association will cordially
assist in promoting?
The Bar Association should make a
strong effort to secure a good library.
1t would be of great service to the
younger members, who cannot afford
to own many books. BY cooperating
with the judges, the Government law
library might be made more valuable,
and better arrangements secured for
consulting the books. ....
