There has been an open question for
some time past in the Department of
Pubic Instruction regarding the use
that could he made of the appropria-
ton of $4,000, made by the Council
of State for Support of Public Schools
Pay Roll" in addition to the amount
appropriated by the last legislature.
There is a salary schedule which
provides for certain increase of pay
from time to time for length of service
and other causes. Many teachers who
became entitled to rise during the
last year failed to receive it, the appro-
priation available at the time being
Insufficient TO enable the Board to live
up to it's own rules in this respect.
On the one hand it was claimed that,
although not so expressed in the Act,
The Council of State made the appro-
priations with the understanding that
none of the money so appropriated
should be used to raise existing sala-
ries, but only for paying additions to
me teaching force, although the
amount required for such rise was in
Guided in the appropriation.
On the other hand 1t was urged that
to give teachers the salaries to which
The salary schedule entitled them ana
which had been withheld temporarily
from lack of funds was not in any
proper sense raising salaries but only
correcting an injustice due to tempo
rary conditions.
The matter was happily settled by
the Executive Council voting yester-
day that the Commissioners of Edu-
cation might use the Council of State
fnr 81 n - tn,
creasing salaries in accordance with
their schedule.
This seems strictly in accordance
with justice and will be good news to
many Woodworking and deserving pub
tic servants who have suffered hard
ship through no fault of their own.
The following was the action taken
by the Executive Council:
Whereas, there was an agreement
in the Executive Council relative to
the appropriation bills submitted to the
Council of State, which were to be sub
ject to the Presidents approval, that
increase of salaries should not be ask
ed for, and
Whereas, the Council of State hav-
ing appropriated sufficient funds for
an increase under the schedule OF
teachers salaries, and on the basis OF
such increase, and
Whereas, the Council of State has
not adopted any limit as to the ex-
penditure of such funds for the pay
ment of teachers or any expression
against such raise of salaries.
1T is voted that the Commissioners
of Public Instruction shan be author
led to make an increase of salaries ac-
cordlng to their schedule within the
limits of such appropriation"

OF Interest Here.

Scientists and men of learning are
deeply interested in the spiritual meet
ings between Miss Lillian Whiting and
the late Kate Field Miss Whiting holds
a seance each month, and says she has
long conversations with her dead
friend. and to prove that this thing is
true, Miss Whiting relates instances
where Miss Field tells her things she
never knew before For example, a.
mong Miss Fields belongings Miss
Whiting, who was her executor, found
ring with a date in it. She had never
seen Miss Field wear this ring, nor had
she ever heard her friends speak of 1t.
Snc asked several friends of Miss Field,
but none could enlighten her about the
ring. At the next spiritual meeting
Miss Field said, according to Miss Whit
ing, THE ring you found was one |
bought in London on the day the Bell
telephone was opened, and | had the
date marked in 1t to commemorate the
occasion" Miss Field was me repre-
sentative of the Bells in london, and
wrote the accounts of the telephone for
the papers. She sang through the tele-
phone for the Queen, and when the new
invention was accepted a banquet was
given at one of the great hotels and
Ms Field was In high spirits. Miss
Whiting Immediately wrote to one OF
the men who was associated with the
telephone venture with Miss Field. and
asked him II he remembered anything
about ring OF Miss F'ic DIS. He at once
replied. Just ms Miss Field herself had
g lained from the unknown. This Is
only one example OF many which Miss
Whiting relateT In book about Kate
Field, and although one cannot help
feeling lncredulous. yet, coming from
80 reliable and intelligent n person as
Miss Whiting II makes one think bit.

noteworthy feature of the Repub-

nesday evening was the sincere desire
which the native Hawaiian republicans
expressed and evidently felt, to put
themselves closely In touch with the
principles advocated by their party.
This would seem to indicate that Ha-

citizens, no matter to which party
they may belong.

A High school Wanted

Nanted--a High School. To merely
mention the fact that a high school IL

De sufficient 20 suggest to the minds OF
many that Il Is somewhat singular that
such an Institution has not already
been established here. The Island Of
Maui is well equipped with primary
schools. and their teachers are as good.
with few exceptions, as can be found in
Massachusetts or California. Year af-
.er year, young men leave these pri-
mary or grammar schools, just at the
lime when they begin to appreciate
the need OF an education; but because
they are not able to go of TO school,
in Honolulu or elsewhere, they go out
into life with a scanty knowledge OF
much that they have a right to know.
Many Maui boys are sent away az a
heavy expense by parents who are
hardly able TO bear the expense, simply
because there are no facilities for
higher education al home. Waikiki Is
an ideal spot for a high school. on ac-
count OF It's climatic ond other advan-

Plantation Labor.
There seems 10 be what the News
considers an undue alarm concerning
the matter Of plantation labor, under
the changed conditions which will pre-
vail after June Is. One thing should
be kept clearly in view, and that is
that the majority Of the labor on the
plantations Will be quite as anxious
20 work and earn wages as the plan
tatiOns are to have the work done. |
The only serious question will be to
reach such a mutually satisfactory
agreement as to the price OF labor. |
The solution Of the question, however, !
will be easy, and may be stated in a
single word Mr.. Low
RE. OF Spreckelsyillc, who, by the way, |
Is the pioneer in the Introduction Of
Ibis system among the japanese, has |
already made arrangements by which |
he larger part OF the II. G. * s. COS |
land at Spreckelsyille Is being worked |
under this system. II Is quite prOba-
bic that within a year, this system will
prevail on all the plantations on the
Islands, TO the mutual advantage Of
the labOreTs and the shareholders.
Maui is to Boom.
The revival Of business fcretold by
this paper, when the plaque abated, !
has already begun, and stiffening in
the price OF sugar stocks is a natural
result. He would be deemed a vision
airy who should dare to paint things
as they will be for the next decade on
The Islands. When politics cease to be
a toy, when good and trustworthy men
" what politics sOeyer are placed in
charge Of our local affairs, and when
the people settle down to the develop
ment Of the resources OF Hawaii nei, a

which will make Of these islands one
