Mr.. HERBERI's REPORT.

Mr.. Allan HerDert, as one OF the
Commissioners of Agriculture. should
be discouraged to preach the gospel OF
reform In our land system, and the
care Of our forests. Like all apostles,
he cannot expect much support from
q community that is PROSTATE before
the sugar god. and does not smile
upon any industry that may interfere
with its worship. The pastor Of a
church on the dangerous coast of New
Jersey fervently implored his congre-
cation, which was composed entirely
of people engaged in the "wrecking"
business. to establish theological
seminary in the town. 4 committee
reported on the matter and declared
that the wrecking business was good
enough for the people and the intro
duction of theological students might
lead the people astray and make them
dissatisfied. Mr.. Herbert must UNDER
are in many cases in favor of small
farms and improvements. the prevail
ing public sentiment is against intro
ducing any industries which may lead
people astray. To sacrifice all other
interests to one large profitable indus
try Is natural and in accordance with
ters of the South have urged the cot
ton planters for thirty years to en-
courage the small farming, but the
public sentiment has been in favor of
c0tton-raising, and the agricultural
writer's have been regarded as false
Apostles who have tried to lead the
people astray.
The local government has been, for
years. exceedingly weak in the Interior
Department. In which laid the hope Of
adjusting our industries so as to par
TALLY equalize them. We have needed
something more than a natural evolu-
tion here. The sugar industry created
abnormal conditions, and these should
have been met constantly by an ener-
setic. almost irrepressible officer of the
Interior. who had seen to 1t that sugar
did not have its own way in all things,
and in the name of American civiliza-
ton at least, had irresistibly and in
spite Of any and all opposition. had
established the small farms, and small
Industries.
Mr.. Herbert will, unfortunately, find
that the improvements which he de-
aires. vii hereafter be more or lest
subject to partisan and political con-
trol. That sort Of superintendent
does not generally work for much good
But Mr.. Herbert, must not be dis
eosraged. Providence has assigned to

could eoly contrive to suffer martyr
don. or tempt the planters to lynch
him for preaching agricultural heresies.
he might attract the attention OF the
public to these subjects for which he
would willingly shed his blood.

opinions which are more active In the
minds of Congressman regarding the
effect OF legislation upon the coming
presidential campaign. These opinions
are now the unknown factors and will
operate as undercurrents.
Hawaii. owing to its limited area. and
small white population. presents TO
Congress the least important OF all
these questions. To us. residing here.
1, is the most important. AS annex
alton has taken place. Congress may
treat Hawaii as 1t treats Alaska or any
other territory. II IL not under pres
sure to promptly provide laws for her.
because she is no longer independent.
The bills already introduced into
both Houses for the government OF
Hawaii express the views Of the Re-
publican leaders, but at the same time.
contain novel provisions regarding the
disposition OF lands. and OF the pro-
perty qualifications in the local politi-
cal system. which will cause debate and
opposition. Whether the majority In
Congress will accept these provisions
cannot be safely predicted. There is
some ground for believing that the Ha-
waiian case may be disposed of before
the first OF March.
But II the labor questions. and the
tariff questions are forced into the dis
cussion, there will probably be much
delay in acting upon the matter.
This community is ignorant, and
profoundly ignorant, OF the trend of
thought on the labor question. in the
States. Through the activity of the
sugar beet men, the powerful farming
interests have walked up to the danger
OF Cheap labor" in the new posses
sions. DR.. Maxwell has shown that in
Hawaii at least, the labor Is no cheap
er than II is in Louisiana. but II must
be remembered that the white farmers
Of the North despise the cheap labor of
the Southern States, and the statement
aggravat6s them so long as they can
not individually get any benefit from
It in cultivating their own farms.
Although Hawaii is not a menace at
present to the sugar-beet industry,
those who are stirring up the farmers
and laborers on the subject will claim
that she Is. The danger Is that in the
and failure to obtain correct
information there may be some COM
promise legislation, which may not be
as favorable as we desire.
The community, acting upon the To-
cal Government, has maintained a
policy, in some matters, which is not
favored by the Federal laws. and our
position in Washington is not what it
should be.
However. II Congress carries out the
contract contained in the Newland's
Resolution We cannot complain.
The experience OF the late few
months in the newly acquired terri
tories tends towards a greater centrali-
cation OF the Government of these ter
ritories In the Executive. at Washing
ton. 1t would not be surprising II the
theory Of home rule would be largely
modified as ineXpedient in places
where the alien races outnumbered
the whites. The domination OF Amer
lean rule will be maintained.

CLOSING THE GAP.

The Outlook, edited by DR.. Lyman
Abbott, announces that 1t will no longer
divide its news and comments under
heads designated as the Religious
World" the Home Club and other
departments of literature. 1t will here
after make no especial distinction be-
tween secular and religious knowledge.
Its reasons are:
mo other truth seems to us more
fundamental, more important, or more
needing emphasis In our time than the
truth that religion is not department
in life. and that when we try to make
1t so. 1t ceases to be religion. Reli-
gion is a standard by which all life is
to be measured, a principle by which
all life is to be governed. a spirit by
which all life Is to be imbued-the
spirit of faith and hope and love"
The New York Sun recently invited
q discussion in its columns upon the
Immortality of the soul. Correspond
ence has been published from all parts
Of the country, and an intense interest
manifested in it. or this correspond
ence the Sun says: We do not recog-
nize any bar to the discussion of ques-
tons of religion in the Sun. They are
the greatest themes with which the
human mind can occupy itself, and to
shut out their consideration from this
newspaper would be to put Limitation
upon its proper field wholly inconsis-
tent with our conception of editorial
duty and wisdom"
Here, then. is the spectacle Of pure
ly religious paper, In its origin, throw
ing of its exclusiveness, and meeting
half way, upon common ground the
secular newspaper, which, on Its side.
abandons secular exclusiveness, and
unites with the religious journal in a
cause which is in the nature OF things
common to both.
The crudity of the conception of
mans relations to nature and life as
displayed by the old, and many of the
living. theolOgians, Is amazing. For
hey dealt largely with brain web and
shadow" and spurned the reality. But
the gap which they perhaps created,
and at least kept open, Is gradually
closing. II is not the least of the
triumphs of this century that 1t has
created, or witnessed the acceptance of
the truth that man Is not like an Aus
tralian idol which Is constructed out
Of two pieces OF wood. OF different
qualities. but he is made out OF one
piece. and the divine and the human
cannot be distinguished by any cunning
devices. The living" theologians well
come this change. They approve OF
the killing Of the vermin of ignorance
Ground the cradle of Truth, AS the
snakes were strangled around the
cradle OF Hercules.
This tendency 10 oblitera,e the dis
tinction made between religious and
secular affairs, is said by the religious
pesslmists, to indicate "A decline OF

The Bay City factory made SSH
400 pounds of sugar last year which
entities it to a bounty of 5S,7l4,06. OF
the total output S,622,92s pounds was
sold in Michigan.
Paid farmers for beets $4,000, or
*i.i4 per ton.
Paid labor $4,000.
1t is estimated that eight factories
will be in operation the coming fall.
Michigan consumes $4,000 900
pounds of sugar annually. paying 81
500, 900 for it. 1t would require %
factories to make this sugar, and s5,-
600 acres of land to raise the beets. IL
made in Michigan it would require an
investment of $s,OOO,OOO in factories,
pay nearly 81, 100000 per year to labor
and $4,000 to farmers for beets.
1t will cost the state IA heap of money
to pay the bounty on the product from
eight factories, but the beet sugar in
dustry firmly established in Michigan
will be worth all it will cost.

PRAISES THE QUEEN REGENT.
Return of the Chinese Minister From
His Spanish Trim.

Minister WI Ting Fang of China return
ed to the city yesterday from a three
months European trip, which he made To
present his credentials as minister TO Spain
as well as the United States. Concerning
the queen regent and her son he said:
THE queen regent is good woman
whom 1 admire very much She has many
gracious qualities and has the love OF her
country at heart Any unpopularity which
may exist toward her is due entirely to the
fact that she is foreigner by birth. The
boy king, whose -lrthday anniversary | at
tended while at Madrid, is a bright and
sensible lad. who speaks several languages.
though he appears to be somewhat delicate
In health"
Ii was suggested to the minister that the
discussion regarding the ACKNOWLEDGMENT of
China had subsidized recently, to which he
made an affirmative reply. He expressed
himself as highly incredulous of the re-
ports coming from Vancouver of the proba-
ole abdicatfon of the emperor. This is en-
urely unlikely. he said, inasmuch as the
reigning monarch was put on the throne
by the empress dowager, whose nephey he
also is.

GROWING PLANTS PHOTOGRAPHED
Use of the Moving Picture Machine by
the Agricultural DEPARTMENT.

The Agricultural Department has pressed
the moving picture machine into the service
of science. The division of vegetable pa
thology nov has a device in operation in
one of its green houses photographing the
growth of a small oak tree. The machine
works automatically, taking a picture each
hour AT night an electric light is thrown
into circuit as the exposure is made. The
machine has been running about two weeks
and will be kept going about two weeks
longer on its present subject. When the
series of pictures is completed it will be
possible to reproduce with the stereopticon
the growth of the plant from the time the
first shoot appeared above ground till the
tree is in full leaf and foot more high.
While the oak tree pictures are purely ex-
perimental to develop the capacity of the
machine, it Is intended to use the serial
photographs in watching the progress of
plant diseases, blights, insect parasites and
the like. The department hopes in the near
future to be able to lend to the agricultural
colleges and experiment stations rolls of
lantern slide film to illustrate certain of the
department bulletins on these subjects
II is pointed out that lecturer before a
class of students could show in five minutes
the growth and seed distribution of any
noXiouS plant, such as the Canadian thistle.
or the life history of an insect pest, so that
it could be readily recognized and combated
on Its first appearance in a region, even
though the workers there had never seen
it in actual life
In addition to the straight photogra phic
work expected of the new machine. it's de-
signer intends TO adapt it to use with the
X ray, SO as to take pictures of certain OBJ
jects that otherwise would be invisible 1t
Is thought by the department that series
of pictures of this sort taken during the pc
ried of CESSATION would be of value to stock
raisers, and might be adapted to the use of
the medical profession in certain lines of
research.
