DUKE THoMPsoN's bill, Senate No. 81,
is being demonstrated against seemingly
by religious organizations from Sussex
to Cape May. individuals prominent
in Christian work are also active in pro-
testing against its passage by the House.
The friends of the former race-track
magnate, and they are both numerous
and influential, use as leading argu-
ment in its favor that Mr.. Thompson is
land poor, having invested half million
of dollars in Gloucester, now Washing
ton Park, and that the granting of
licenses to sell liquor will put him on
his feet. His friends apparently forget
that his nefarious track and its odious
practices brought New Jersey into dis
grace throughout the entire sisterhood of
States. And then it must not be forgot
ten that he debauched thousands Of
young men, ruined many homes, and
brought disgrace and misery to null
titudes both in this State and elsewhere.
BILLY" Thompson is not entitled to one
iota of sympathy, and we are glad that
Senator Pitney's vote was recorded
against it and that Messrs. Poole and
Welsh will also be against the measure.

Purchaser: "That's interesting; what
did they have to do with it?'
Head Salesman for p. c. & Mfg Co:
swell, you see, he took the young lady
out on the Sterling Tandem we have here,
and it ran so easy he thought she was
doing all the work, and the same thing
was passing through her mind. They
both thought how nice itwould be to have

That Admiral Dewey seriously
contemplates entering the list of
Presidential candidates or that
any one honestly believes be can
be brought into line has yet to be
proved. The papers making the
loudest acclaim of Dewey's posi-.
BILE candidacy are the organs OF
the Eastern Democracy which are
leaving no stone unturned to
break Bryan's control Of the ma
tional organization and forestall
the nomination of silver capdi
date Bryan's platform must
necessarily be a silver platform,
try as his leaders may to force the
trusts aud anti.imperialism into
the foreground. On silver
Issue, the Democrats face positive
defeat, but Bryan is anxious to
try it again and for all interfer
ence he may have from Admiral
Dewey, he will probably have the
opportunity.
Dewey's ege and healthy are
against his taking up the very
exacting duties Of the Chief Ex-
ecutive, provided be did have the
ambition to upset his present
commander-ip- chief. Every re-
mark he has made since he came
promin emily before the public in
dicates that bis ideal is to quietly
fulfill his duties as a naval officer,
and is fully satisfied with the
honors won.
The political situation is not
altogether unlike that which Lin
coin faced in bis second cam
psign. The war has been a sue
cessful one but the problems
presented in the new possessions
makes Linc0ln's statement that it
is not advisable to swap horses

in '63.
That Dewey will prove dis
turbing factor in national politics,
while possible, is by no meaus
probable. He rever has had the
reputat on of doing politics" in
the navy department aud there is
no indication that at this late day
he will enter upon new role.

THE ARMY BILL.

Instead nj cordially providing for a
standing army OF 100000 men as the
EXpansionists demanded, they provid-
ed for u standing army of only 10000,
with u right in the Executive to in
crease 1t, in the event OF an emergen-
cy. There is not any hearty Imperial
ism in such a stand. The Republicans
have not stood by the Executive in the
matter If the nation proposes to in
dulge in the business of expansion the
Executive, that must do the work, and
actually do the expansion, asks for the
means to do it with effect. Congress
replies: why not shout about 1t, and
make lots Of noise, and scare OF the
other nations? When you ask for men
and treasure, you are taking the mat
ter too seriously"
Now that the Flliplnos have actually
declared war, the Senate will be more
liberal, and meet the wishes OF the
Executive. .

Provision is made for the exercise Of

prominent position in the animal So
ciety of these Islands. Neither pulpit
nor press, nor teacher discourse on the
duties we owe to the birds" or the
duties that the birds owe to us. The
consequence is that our mynah bird
population is in the depths of heather
ism, and ignorance and exhibits only
the crudest knowledge of right and
wrong. But. II Is said, that in matri-
monial fidelity II displays virtues that
our boosted civilization" lacks. There
should be one day in the year devoted
to the alteration Of these birds, with
sincere acknowledgements OF their ex-
emplary family life.
Whether the education of the My
nah birds should be provided for by
our Board of Education Is a serious
question. Miss Thursby's bird proves
that extraordinary results may be
reached by education, and IL it raises
the birds to a higher life." provision
should be made for this education. II
Is to be expected that President Dole
and his Cabinet will oppose any
measure for education, because II might
lend finally TO the enlargement of the
elective franchise. Besides. II one
mynah bird can sing and talk in five
Languages, and play the piano with one
foot" other and all mynah birds may
do so, and a very uncomfortable Ques-
ton might arise as to which. in the
mind of the Wise Man, was the most
how to make money out of the sugar
business and stopped at that, or a
mynah bird who did not know how TO
make money in the sugar business, but
could" sing and talk in five languages"
for the benefit of mankind, and was
therefore OF some use In the world.
1t must be admitted that there are
no hap-hazard events in this world, so
that the presence and increase of the
mynahs on these Islands is in accord
ance with the universal plan of crea-
ton. Just as the good native boy, Oboo-
kiah, wandering about in New Hav-
en- nearly eighty years ago, started the
enterprise to these Islands,
SO may Miss Thursby's mynah bird
stimulate some missionary enterprise

THE kOHALA SCHOOL.

The Board OF Managers Of the Ko-

much good since its foundation in 1885.
The natives have done comparatively
little for IT'S support, although they have
been exclusive benchciaries OF It's OBJ

sympathy with them have with0aI zee
luctance furnished the funds Tor It's
maintenance.
As the natives cease TO be con

inhabitants OF the Islands. It becomes
more important that every obligation
that the stronger owes to the weaker
race should be- cordially and abundant
ly discharged. This can be done in no
better way than in supporting these
schools for native girls. II is only in
this way that the next generation OF
natives can he fitted to meet the fric-
ton Of races, under the new conditions.
