GENERAL OR ACTOR.

1t is not generally known that Lord
Kitchener did not at first relish gun
powder and military life as he does
now. Several months after joining the
army he had serious thoughts of devot-
ing himself to histrionic art He even
went so far as to obtain a letter Of in
PRODUCTION TO the famous George Hon
ey, and went to London to interview
the actor on the subject. Honey listen
ed attentiVely to all he had TO say, then,
cycling the applicant critically, said IT
could get you an engagement in FIVE
minutes as a walking gentleman, but,
let me tell you'd be better off as a
sapper in the engineers" He then
launched into such a vivid description
of the stages uninviting side winding
up with the advice: stick to the army,
Mr.. Kitchener; it's a better shop than
the boards" How successfully the for

BATHS ON WATER FRONT
THE KINAU'S BIG PASSENGER
LIST.
Board of Health Agent Has a Lively
Time Compelling Travellers to Battle
and Get official Releases.

There were lively scenes on Kinau
wharf yesterday afternoon, before the
departure of the Kinau for Hilo and
way ports, with a large passenger list.
The new rules about baths were en-
forced and the Board of Health Agent
had warm time with some of the men
and women whom he instructed to take
bath. One young lady declined to
visit the new baths and after trying to
get aboard without, finally went to the
Board of Health and got permission,
after which she was passed. The lady
had not heard of the new rule and was
astonished and indignant, when Inspec-
tor Hancock, politely informed her that
she would Have to take bath"
That's the rule of the steamer" said
the agent.
Il can't pass you till you've had a
bath"
1t was almost time for the steamer
to sail. The indignant lady protested
without avail and then called a car
riage and started for the Board of
Health, to find out why she had been
required to battle. Just before the
steamer left she returned with the nee
essary permit, and was allowed on
board.
There was a large list of passengers
for the Kinau yesterday and the new
baths on the wharf We're used all after
noon The forty deck passengers all
bathed and some of those who went in
the cabin, though of the latter many
had permits from the Board of Health,
allowing them to go without the bath
on the wharf. Inspector Hancock is
stationed on the wharf to see that the
rules are carried out and no one went
on the steamer without having taken
bath, except who had been officially
released from the necessity. Every
passenger had been made plague proof
by serum. What sort of reception
they will meet with at Hilo remains to
be seen.
The Wilder Steamship Company has
erected some fine baths on Kinau wharf
to enable travellers to comply with the
rules made by the Board of Health.
The men on the wharves have to take
some strong expressions of rebellion
and criticism from those who object to
the scheme, but the kickers are told
that 1t is not the company, but the
Board of Health that makes the rules.

SPEED OF CABLE MESSAGES

In operating long cables very delicate
instruments are required and the cur-
rents arriving at the receiving end, are
very feeble compared with those en-
ployed in land-line signaling. The long
er the cable, naturally, the feebler the
impulses arriving at the receiving end,
A short cable-a cable under 900 miles
being generally considered a short cable
gives a speed Of signaling amply sur
ncient for all purposes with a conductor
weighing about 100 pounds to the mile
surrounded by an insulating envelope
of gutta percha, Weighing about an
equal amount. When we come to a
cable of about twice this length il Is
found necessary in order to get a prac-
tically unlimited speed that is. a speed
as high as the most expert operator
can read, to employ a core of $50 pounds
of copper to the mile, insulated with
400 pounds of gutta percha to the mile
These are the PROPORTIONS of copper and
gutta percha in the 1894 Anglo-Ameri-
can Atlantic cable which is considered
the record Atlantic cable for speed
of working, and has been worked by
automatic transmission at the rate IF
some fortv-tiVe words a minute. The
type of cable proposed for the Vancou-
Ver-Fanning section of the British Pa
cific cable, as designed by Lord Kelvin,
is to have core of $50 pounds of copper
and 1868 pounds of gutta percha to the
mile and is calculated to give a speed
of twelve words minute over a length
of 1850 miles. IT is not considered safe
to adopt a very much heavier core than
this for the reason that the weight of
the complete cable with a core that
should weigh more than about half a
ton to the nautical mile would be so
great that picking it up for repairs from
a 6anth of 2 000 fathnnoG would ha ap

LABOR'S PROSPERITY.
Unnnswerabie Proof That Working
men Are benefited by Re-
publican Policies.

That the laboring men of the coun-
try are in more prosperous condition
than ever known before is proven be-
yond any chance of contradiction by
the statistics of the American Fedora
ton of Labor. sent out over the sigma
ture of the president, Mr.. Samuel Com
pers. We compare the disastrous
years of the Wilson bill and democratic
rule. 1898. 1894 and 1895. with 1899, un-
der Mckinley and prosperity.
In 1898 the American Federation Of
Labor met at Chicago. There were 95
delegates present, 3S national trace
unions represented, IS local trade
unions, 10 city central unions and one
state branch. The receipts for the year
were So. .sG462, and the expenditures

tion of Labor met at Denver. Col.
There were II delegates present, 80 ma
tional trade unions represented. 12 To-
cal trade unions. IL city central unions
and three state branches. The receipts
for the year were S15. .346.4 and the eX-
penCitures S17.302.0S. In 1895 the
American Federation of Labor met al
New York city. There were 06 dele
gates present. "a national trade unions
represented. % local trade unions, Is
city branch unions and three state
branches. The receipts were S13.751.75,
and the expenditures S15.612.42.
In 1899 the American Federation of
Labor met at Detroit. There were 1S9
delegates present. 55 national trade
unions. 6s local trade unions, 81 central
unions and five state branches. The
receipts were $36.75713. and the eX-
penditures S30.599.22. Surely labor is
prosperous when the members of this
great organized BODY can contribute
TO the cause as shown by the above re-
ceipts over $4,000 more in 1899 than
they did in 1898. and several thousands $
more than double what they did in
each of the years 1898, 1894 and 1895.
Under Gate Of August O. 1859. Mr.. Com
pers stated the number of Independent

MEN AGAINST BRYAN.
Railway Employees DO Not Care to
Return to the Times
of 1875.

The Railway and Telegraph EN-
ployes' League of Illinois has issued a
pamphlet giving the earnings of rail-
way employees in the United States Ter
the years ending June 30. 1895. and
June 30. 1899. The figures. which were
compiled from the interstate COM
merce commission reports, show that
the total increase in wages amounted
TO the great sum of $77.4j0.G25. The
number Of persons employed increased
from 7S5,O34 in 1913 10 92S.G24 in 1899.
1t thus happened that there were rail-
road "jobs" in 1899 for 1880 more
men than could get Jobs" in 1895.
The railroad employees of the United
States are now being asked TO vote for
Bryan because he will do no HARM"
II is absurd however. TO suppose that
they would care to travel back TO the
times Of 1895. Practically speaking
they would have not one thing to gain
by Bryan's election. The least that
they would be apt TO lose would be that
increase in wages. amounting to a near
ly round Ss0,O0O.0OO. Moreover, they
would not like TO have the extra pros
perlty work taken away. which would
mean with it the Jobs" of some 49,
500 of their present number To get
work somehow at any wages, those
143,s90 losers of "jobs" would surely
demoralize the entire labor market.
Railroad employees. also as class,
are too sensible not to know that the
success of sixteen to one would bring
worse times by far than the country
knew in 1895. bad as those times were.
1t is self-evident that with the rail-
roads paying fixed interest on their
bonds in 1OO-cent gold dollars, and be-
ing compelled to accept as legal tender
for their service as carriers, the new AZ
cent dollars, they could not make
both ends meet" without depriving
a vast number of their employees of the
chance of earning wages in even the
42-cent dollars.

Plain and Manly.

President McKinleys letter of accept
ance, very complete summary of which
is published in this paper, is one of the
strongest campaign documents the re-
publicans can have this year. 1t is plain
and manly, taking up the issues as de
fined in the platforms in an honest and
fearless manner, and clearly defining the
position of the president and the party.
Mr.. Mckinley stands squarely upon the
republican platform, and makes no ex-
cuses nor apologies for single plank of
it. Unlike Mr.. Bryan, he does not dodge
some issues, harping upon a single one
and fiippantly leaving others for future
discussion-in a future that will not
come before election. The people like
an open, honest expression from a candi-
date, and President McKinleys candor
will win him votes even among those
who are not in complete accord with
him.
Unlike Mr.. Bryan, the president is not
afraid of the financial issue. He knows,
as every thinking voter knows, that the
currency question is live and vital is
sue, and that Mr.. Bryan and his party
stand to-day, as they stood in 1896,
squarely pledged to the free coinage of
silver at ratio of l6 to l. The president
clearly shows the danger of such policy,
and stands, as he has perfect right to
do, upon the record and redeemed pledges
of the republican party, and upon the
financial plank of its latest platform.
Here his position is unassailable, and
worthy of the support of every voter who
favors national honor and an honest
money for the payment of public and
private debts.
1t seems to US, however, that the
strongest portion of the presidents let
ter, and the part that will carry the great
est CONSERVATION into the camp of the
democracy, is that in which he deals with
the Philippine question and declares his
policy in regard to the future of the is
lands. Mr.. Mckinley shows in the strong
est language that, after the ratification
of the treaty by which the Philippines
became the property Of the United States
The true northerner., 1900-09-14

and the adjournment OF congress with
out any legislation whatever as to their
disposition or control, there was no course
open to the president but to hold the
territory and to exert every power at his
command for their paciication and con-
troll. The president has no power to
ALLEVIATE a foot of national soil He has
no more right or power TO surrender the
Philippines to the insurgents or to
foreign nation than he would have To
permit the people of Texas To organize
an independent government il they so
desired-no more than Abraham Lincoln
had to permit the establishment OF the
Confederacy without struggle. Had
President Mckinley pursued different
course, he would have been recreant to
the trust imposed in him. Like Lincoln,
he has suffered abuse and misrepresen-
tation for the performance of his duty;
like Lincoln he has been charged with
imperialistic tendencies, and like Lincoln
he will pass the ordeal with honor to
himself, his name to become enrolled
among the patriots and benefactors of
his country.
The presidents defense of his course
is not less satisfactory than his direct
statement as to his ideas as to the future
of the islands. He squarely says he be-
lieves it the country's duty to so shape
affairs in the Philippines as to fit the
people for self-government, and then to
grant self lf-government to them in such
measure as they are from time to time
competent to exercise and maintain. Is
this imperialism? No! This is Amer
icanism, and no broader type of it is to
be found to-day than in the person of
the president of the United States.
Mr.. McKinley's letter leaves the anti
imperialism campaign very, very fiat.
The True Northerner believes the presi-
dent has so expressed himself as to win
in an even greater degree than he has
heretofore enjoyed, the confidence and
respect of the American people.
