The Importance of other questions now
pending before the American people is in
no wise diminished, and the democratic
party takes no backward step from its po-

involves the very existence of the republic
and the destruction of our free institutions
We regard it as the paramount issue of the

Mr.. Biles is a very hasty tempered
man, but he is also one who keeps his
promises to the very letter. Therefore
Mrs. B. has trained him to believe that
second thoughts are best and, even in a
moment of his weakness, extracted
from him promise always to count 20
before he speaks if he feels rage COM
ing upon him. Last Sunday he rushed
into the back drawing room spluttering
with fury and red in the face. Mrs.
Biles rose and laid gentle hand on his
stammering lips.

Japan In any question that involves
China must have part. Japan is
jealous enough OF Russia, as 1t Is, and
Corea forms a fruitful source Of anxi-
ETY. and intrigue but this would be as
nothing to the feeling in Japan II Rus
STA was to make a grab at the North
ern part of China. Japan would rather
see China advance along the same
path as she herself has followed, than
see her fall into the hands of half a
dozen foreign powers. The end Of
China as an Eastern power, might be
the commencement of Japan's own
down fall.
1t is this which has made the Mika-
dos government favor the reform
party i'm China, and throw it's protect
ing arm around men like Leung Chi
tso. Japan foresees what the future
has in store and realizes the danger Of
it. 1t therefore supports the only party
from which relief can be expected. Ii
Hung Chang has had much commune
cation with the Japanese, and it is
quite probable that the Japanese atti-
tude has imbued his mind with the
views which are expressed in the doc
ument Leung Chi-tso received.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1900-06-02

The special session will be the first
feature of our new political life. 1t
devolves upon all of us to take an inter-
est in it, and to influence it as much
as possible for the good of the Terri
tory. There is no one so poor that he
cannot have some influence. What we
need is broad-minded legislation. We
must avoid the pitfall of class or local
legislation. If we carry on our legisla-
tive campaign well, we will have served
a point in our favor for statehood 1t
is quite on the cards that statehood
may come to US a great deal sooner than
we expect. But the matter is in our
own hands.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1900-06-02

Honolulu is getting credit from the
far east for the fight over the plague.
Honolulu won at tremendous sacrifice,
but Honolulu will have to keep a
watchful eye to keep her reputation.
There never was a more gallant plague
fight fought than ours. There never
was a better general than DR.. Wood,
but one would like to hear a word of
praise from the western, rather than
the eastern world, for our fight saved,
in a great measure that which was east
of us.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1900-06-02

Consumption again stands at the
head of the monthly list of deaths. This
month that disease has claimed Is vic
Tins. Typhoid, which so many people
dread far more than consumption, ac-
counts for but deaths. Pneumonia
accounts for of the deaths. The total
number for the month was 81. Last
months the number of deaths in the
city was 113, so there has been a con-
siderable decrease, and the general
health may be regarded as better than
it has been since last December. The
great number of deaths from consump-
ton calls for some action on the part
of the Board of Health. We have
fought our plague fight; we should be-
gin war upon the other destroyer. When
the death rate from consumption be-
comes still greater, perhaps some work
will be undertaken. There was a talk
about having a commission to inquire
into the conditions which make this dis
ease stand at the head of our NOR
tally tables. But no move has yet
been made. There is no doubt that
tuberculosis is the greatest menace to
the public health that we have.

CHINA'S PROSPECTS.

A letter purporting to be inspired by
Ii Hung Chang, has been received by
Leung Chi-tso, in which the willy
statesman shows that he is in favor OF
the party of advance, and urges the
younger men of Chinaa to adopt west
ern ideas and let western influences be
felt.
Whether this letter has been inspired
by Ii or not, it clearly sketches condi-
tions in China, and makes the great
eastern statesman out to be progressive
in his ideas, though his hands have been
tied by his colleagues, owing to the
mandarins. There is something to be
said for Ii. He has always been &C
cessible to foreigners, and has kept
himself posted upon foreign affairs and
foreign ornaments. In his own prov
ince he is said to have had his body
guard properly armed and drilled.
In the letter he claims he was averse
to the war with France, but that he
stood alone among his colleagues. He
further claims that he has believed in
educating Chinese according to foreign
methods, and it is certainly true that a
large number of young Chinese have
been educated in the United States and
in Europe, but how many of them have
gone at the expense of Ii Hung Chang
is unknown.
1t is quite possible that this letter
may have been inspired by Ii; it is not
claimed he wrote it himself, and he
would readily repudiate it if ever it fell
into the hands of the dowager empress
None the less it may fairly express his
present views. He, no doubt, sees that
that fate of China is now in the balance
and he realizes that the only chance of
regeneration is to bring China forward
upon western lines. He cannot do IT,
and his time on earth is short. He also
hints that the time of the dowager en-
press upon this earth is short. And
when a beneficent providence shall
have removed her will be the time for
the reformers to act. There certainly is
a strong probability that these are
really the sentiments of Ii Hung
Chang.
But it is far from improbable that
events may be precipitated in China.
The action of the Boxers are certain
ly calling forth the indignation of the
European and American powers. The
spirit of fanaticism and hatred of the
foreigner has been lighted up among
the ignorant lower classes of China,
and the flame is famed by the conser-
vative among the mandarins. AS long
as this only involves a few outrages
upon isolated individuals the powers
will buster and demand compensa-
tion, but just as soon as the spirit of
fanaticism begins to interfere with
