NEW AALA PARK SCHOOL
BRIGHT AND COOL QUARTERS
PROVIDED.
Fine Sanitary Arrangement Assures

Breezes will Fill the Rooms.

The session for part of the pupils of
the Royal school was resumed for this
year Monday in the temporary quarters
at Aala Park. For the present the
school win be held in the old warehouse
a portion of which has been very nicely
equipped for the benefit of the pupils.
The Government spent nearly $4,000
fitting up the new quarters for the
Royal school and the work has been
well done. The mauka end of the build
ing was selected, for, in addition to be-
ing away from the noise on King street
there will be a splendid breeze lowing
from Nuuanu Valley and plenty of light
in that portion of the building all of the
time. The school is really a house
within a house for the various rooms
have all been provided with separate
ceilings for the roof of the warehouse
is so high that the voices of the pupils
would be lost among the rafters. There
are six rooms, three being on the maui
ka end two on the Eva side and one on
the Waikiki side. In the center of the
building is a large assembly hall on
which every room abuts the main en-
trance being from the mauka side.
These rooms have been partitioned off
with nice clean boards and are about
twelve feet in height, with ventilators
in the ceilings to give additional air.
There are from three to four big win
dows in each room through which the
sunlight streams and the cooling bree-
yes flow throughout the sessions.
The blackboards and usual school
paraphernalia have been placed in
each room and lights have been put in
four of them. A specially good feature
of the new school is the fine set of la
vatories provided. Everything is Of
the latest style. The sanitary arrange
ments seem to lack for nothing and
the health of the pupils ought to be
very good upon this score at least The

HAS BECOME A MENACE

Pedestrians in st. Paul for many weeks
past have been subjected to annoyance
and danger in an unusual degree through
the failure of bicycle riders to observe the
city ordinances.
1t will be remembered that before the
disappearance of the remarkable police
administration with which this city had
been burdened for something like four
years, the announcement was made with
much fervor that Chief Getchell would
rigidly enforce the ordinances securing
the safety of pedestrians. Instant arrest
was. promised of any rider seen without
his lighted lamp after dark, and of any
rider who at any time showed the alb
Searching was to have been ruthlessly
suppressed and scorchers removed from
active life for more or less extended pc
RODS. But 1t was all a mere threat
There never was any serious attempt at
enforcement, with the result that many
serious accidents have taken place. and
recently they have been on the increase
Within few days young man was per-
manently injured on one of the principal
business streets under circumstances
which seemed to involve utter reckless
ness or equally complete inability to con-
troll his wheel on the part Of the rider.
1t is now stated that Minneapolis riders
are responsible for most of the accidents,
since they do not observe the city ordin-
arces 1t is true that the regulations in
Efinneap polls are of a character evidently
dee.gned exclusively for the purpose of
exacting money from riders, and with
little regard to the safety of the individ-
ual But it is absurd to lay the blame
of the increased recklessness on Mime
apolis riders. The entire trouble is due
to the failure of the police administration
in the past TO enforce the city ordinances.
The arrests which have been made have
given no indication of any intelligent pur-
pose When it is possible to drag re-
putable young lady into the police court
because her lamp was unHghted in a re-
mote section of the city. while hundreds
of reckless young fellows without either
lamp or bell. have been allowed to travel
at their own choice of speed in every sec
ton OF the city. there is little reason for
wonder that such palpable disregard is
shown of all local regulation.
Chief O'Cenuor has. declared his purpose
to. have all existing regulations enforced.

WELCOME, ROOSEVELT.

No hostile party political feeling will
prevent any citizen of st. Paul from unit
ing, in spirit at least, in the honor which
the people of this city are preparing to
confer on Gov. Roosevelt, of New York.
Mr. Roosevelt is comparatively a young
man His active life has been spent in
public affairs. He has become identified,
as few men either in public or private life
have ever become identified, with the pro-
gressive and militant spirit, of the Ameri-
can people He entered public life while
still youth, and bore himself in the early
stages of his public career in such man
of Democrats and Republicans alike.
Later On, as his knowledge of the policy
of politics had grown, he for considera-
bic period showed but little abatement in
his resolute adherence to his own under
standing Of right public conduct. AS a
member of the New York legislature he
laid the foundation, which has endured,
of the popularity and regard which are
capacity as civil service commissioner he
did many things for which all men, DEM
ocrats and Republicans alike, have a right
to thank him. in the direction Of promot-
ing a more intelligent and independent
method of selecting public employees, and
his assumption Of the post of assistant
secretary of the navy showed that he was
less intent on the good he thought he
might do than In the choice of desirable
pubic station.
Gov. RooseVelt's has been a life of great
public usefulness. He has aroused much,
of hostility, as men OF his temperament
and disposition necessarily must; but at
least until recent times, no one was heard
to question his entire independence and
self-respect and self-reliance in official
life. His career as a New York police
commissioner and as lieutenant colonel
Of the rough riders brought out Col
RooseVelt's strongest characteristics, and
1t is upon his career. in those relation
ships that his reputation must rest, for
better or worse, at this time. Whether
we commend or condemn his course In
political life, we can admire the man and
bespeak for him the most cordial welcome
which our people can offer to him. He
will be the city's guest as we'll as the
guest of his party associates, and in that
character We all welcome him, are proud
of him and can bid him God-speed when
he leaves US.

treasury surplus. Not the internal
finances of the country make such an abb
normal basis Of taxation necessary. Ii
we have done all that is necessary to be
done to suppress Aguinaldo and his fol-
lowers, 1t seems very reasonable en-
quiry, whether the retention Of the islands
is to continue to be such a source of ma
tional expense?
The reports from time to time certainly
indicate that those Filipinos who are stH
In arms are capable Of doing considerable
harm. Rut there is absolutely nothing in
existing conditions, nor in the reports of
hostiIities which come to the public,
which would seem to warrant the ISLANDS
being SO heavily garrisoned. Or If this
is mistaken view, is it not reasonable
to enquire how long it will be before con-
ditions will warrant the material reduc-
ton of existing expense, and whether
such conditions are at all possible in
country whose inhabitants are as I'M
placable as the Fihpinos seem to be. and
as hard to get at.
1t certainly appears to be demanded Of
the administration that 1t explain to the
country how much longer existing coadi-
lions, whatever they may be, hecessita-
ting the maintenance of a standing army
and the most lavish expenditure Of the
national treasure, as well as the sacrl-
fee of the lives of American soldiers
will prevail In the Philippine islands.

now LONG WILL 1T BE,

We have long been taught to believe
that the trouble IN the Philippines was all
over and that the revolt against Amerf-
can authority had degenerated into a
series of mere sporadic outbreaks. with
out any idea of concerted action on the
part of the Filipinos. Gen. Otis Is the
highest authority from the administration
standpoint on the situation In the Phil
fppines, and he has stated over and over
again that the war is closed, and that
what is left to be done are largely mat
tiers of civil detail.
At the most serious stages In the war
in the Philippines the country had the
repeated assurance Of Gen. Otis that 50 600
men would be sufficient to suppress the
rebellion against American authority.
The number of troops now in the islands
largely exceed that figure, yet, with the
war brought to close, and the insur-
gent army dispersed. and the most urgent
demand existing for the presence of
e American troops in China, Gen. Macarthur
tells his superiors that their ruqulsition
on him is unreasonable, and that he can
not provide more than 1,GG9 ga=a to meet
the situation in China. Thus, in all, the
extent of the mil''71y f3rce which the
commanding genera N the Philippines
can spare for TIE rejection OF American
interests in China is less than $50 men,
Evidently in an inspired statement the
public is given to understand that the al
lowance of the demand made by the war
department on Gen Macarthur could not
be granted without detriment to the ser
vice in the Philippines" Is this not an
extraordinary proposition? What use can
such an enormous army as is now in the
Philippines be put to if the claim of the
administration that the rebellion IS ended.

last session.
The law, like all others encompassing
life insurance taxation, results in making

One of the general agents of the Mil
waukee company has put himself in touch
with the 25,e00 policy holders of that or
ganization by means of vigorously
worded appeal, in which he shows them
the need of repeating the obnoxious and
wantonly injurious enactment.
It will, perhaps, be bit startling to

CHICAGO TRAIN HELD UP.

PADUCAH. KY. July 1.-THE Illinois
Central fast train from New Orleans to
Chicago was held up and robbed Of $4,000
early today, two miles south of WickIiffe,
KY.
The train was robbed, and the robbers,
six in number, cut off the engine and eX-
press car and ran a mile and half, to
Fort Jefferson, near the Ohio river and
within sight of the Missouri shore. There
they blew the express safe and secured all
valuables it contained They left the en-
CINE and looted car and crossed into Mis-
souri,. They dropped one package con-
tanning 800 the Kentucky side and
another package on the Missouri side,
both of which were found today.
The robbers overpowered the express
men and made them get off the train,
but did not attempt to modest the large
load of passengers.
Fireman Fryisch was badly beaten by
the robbers when they stopped the train.
The express messenger was driven from
his car when it was cut off.
