BOOK WALTER SAYS
Mckinley Will Change Front
In Chinese Problem and As
sist In Dismpmberment.

Springfield, o.. Nov. 10-In a letter
printed in tonight's Democrat Hon.
John w. Bookwalter. now In Paris,
says:
II believe II elected 1t will not be
three months until Mckinley faces
squarely about and becomes the most
rabid anti-Chinese, and pro-imperialist
and will Join England and Germany in
any scheme of pluuder, spoilation and
partition Of the country which has per-
sisted in following the precepts Of Con-
fucious and other moralists and pre-
fers the doctrine and practice OF loving
one another and doing to others as they
would have others do unto them.
Indeed. I cannot see how Mckinley
can persist in his plan of non-interven-
tion In China, as 1t suggests the inquiry
whether 1t. does not apply also to the
Philippines. 1t seems to me that II
there Is one reason why we should not
intermeddie with the International af-
fairs Of China there are two why we
should not do so In the Philippines, as
we are pledged to them to give them
their own country in return for aiding
us to defeat a common enemy"

and prosperity OF the people and the
results Of the census as well as the
election of a president. No plans have |

wife OF his successor. and the president
elect would follow with the lady of the
white house. Time and multitudes have
changed this ceremony until now the
president is only expected to walk
through the rooms accompanied by his

Tribute to Hawaiian Flag

The Hawaiian flag we all love" he
said in conclusion, for the memories
OF the past which it brings back to us
for the past joys and sorrows which it
recalls to our minds. The American
flag with it's stars and stripes let us
all look up to as our guiding star of the
future, our hope for all time Haul up
the American flag"
spontaneously the crowd rose to its
feet and every head was barred as the
strains of the Star Spangled Banner
rose on the air and the flag slfpped
quickly to the top of the mast upon
the cupola of the school, hauled by the
deft fingers OF eight young girls These
were the fortunate ones to whom the
honor of raising the flag was given:
Miss Alice Johnson, Miss Esther Lando.
Miss Clara Gerts. Miss May Schweitzer
Miss Agnes Carroll, Miss Daisy Smith
Miss Anna Tucker, and Miss Ella Zeig-
ler
AS the fine old emblem floated on the
air the ceremonies closed with three
cheers for America and rousing wells
by the boys Of the High School.

The Hawaiian flag with it's union and
its stripes speaks to us of many dear
and many sad periods in the history of
our little republic. This flag, the flag
which is henceforth to wave over US
and protect us tells in it's stripes and
stars (stripes thirteen for the thirteen
original colonies and stars forty-five
for the states of the Union) of the
growth and the greatness of our coun-
try. 1t has been carried by ships of
war to many lands and it has been dis
played before official residences in
every cline. To the soldier going into
battle it tells of the land and the prin-
ciples for which he fights and is a con-
slant inspiration to him. To the private
citizen it means protection for him
self and his interests. We are going
to make American citizens of you, you
young men who are to control the des-
TIMES of Hawaii in years to come and
you girls who are to bring up flu
ture generations of Hawaiian-Ameri-
cans. And when you look at this flag
you will be reminded that it represents
the United States, where no man is
better than another, where every man
is king and every woman is queen
and all the boys and girls are princes
and princesses."
There was a laugh of merriment
among the children for moment at
this and President Dole also smiled as
he looked down upon the faces of the
little princes and princesses he was ad-
dressing.
Then he went on soberly:
But L mean what I say. 1t Is no
joke. 1t is the very truth

In receiving the flags Mr.. Mott-Smith
said: i accept on behalf of the
schools of Hawaii these flags, and do
so with due reverence and a hearty
appreciation of all that they mean to
the schools. / hope that the remem-
brance of this scene will sink into the
hearts of all the children here present
and that they will realize the full sig
nificance of its meaning In the name
Of the Department of Public Instruc-
ton, wish to thank the members of
the Grand Army of the Republic for
these flags and on behalf of the schools
pledge the faithful upholding of the
flag and all that it means by the school
children of Hawaii"
The song, Our Flag" to the air of
the Anvil Chorus" was sung by the
students of the High School led by
Professor Yarndley. The song was
written by members of the school and
the first verse is as follows:
Hail to the morn in our proud nations
story,
When Freedom. her banner Ger us
unfolds!
Shout for Columbia, in anthems of
glory,
And loudly extol Him whose pow'r
upholds.''

Then came one of the prettiest fea-
lures Of the day. To the sprightly mu-
sic of the band thirty-two High School

ed to you. What jewels among all
does wife and mother love and prize :?
Her engagement ring and her weddine
ring. And why? Because they tell of
some story of her life; they are en-
blematic Of some epoch in her exist

so should we cherish our national en-
blem, as a woman's jewels speak to
her of her joys and sorrows and victo-
ries and defeats so our flag will re-
mind us of those periods in our history
that will be dearest to u.s.
