corps OF teachers is TO be sent out
from the States. Under these, normal
classes for teachers will be established
In the island with view to ultimately
placing proper Cuban teachers in the
public schools. At present education
is OF the most antiquated type. There
Is no class work at all; instruction is
wholly individual. Each child is

cites his lesaon rapidly and takes his
seat again.

DON'T LET THE SONG co OUT OF YOUR LIE.

Don't let tho song 60 out OF your life;
Though IL chance sometimes to flow
In a minor strain. II will blend again
With the major tone, you know.
What though shadows rise TO obscure liie's
skies,
And hide for q time the sun;
They sooner will lift and reveal the riff,
lfyou let the melody run.
Don't let the song go out OF your life;
Though your voice may have lost its
trill.
Though the tremuous note should die In
the throat.
Let 1t sing In your spirit stlll.
There Is never a pain that hides not some
gain,
And never "a cup OF rue
SO bitter to sup but what In the cup
Turks measure ofsweetness too.

Or Sigh for the fair summer time?
The autumn hath days filled with ppans OF

And the winter hath bells that chime.
Don't let the song go out OF your life;
Let II ring In the soul while hOre,
And when you 10 hence II shall follow you

Then do not dospond and say that the fond,

efforts to have the Dole government
surrender the silver service which
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1900-06-08

was presented to King Kalakaua by
the President OF the French Repub-
lie. We can hardly believe that Mr..
Dole will oppose the return of the
gift to the heirs of the late King. 1t
was certainly not gift to the gov.
ernment OF Hawaii, OF which the
President OF France knew not hing,
but it was token of personal es-
TEEN to the monarch who came to
Paris from the far away islands in
the Pacific. 1t was personal mat
ter altogether and the attempted
confiscation Of the silver service by
Mr.. Dole is on par with the petty
larceny committed by bis sub
ordinates who purloined the swords
and decorations presented to the
King. Mr.. Dole and his satellites
are OF course not we'll versed in mat
ters connected with diplomatic
etiquette, or with the rules which
prevail in official intercourse among
crowned heads. They are not TO be
blamed for their ignorance becau,e
they have had no opportunity to

sident OF France and gided Louis
Quato,zs snuff tobacco box, which
would be a useless tribute to any
nice man with whiskers. He would
have received an Arabian horse well

If the Advertiser will read the re-
port of theHawaiian Convention as it
appeared in the Evening Bulletin
and compare it with it's own report,
it will fud where the "garblipg"
comes in. All the members of the con-
ventiou, competent to judge claim
tina! the Bulletin report is as correct
as report OF such a meeting can
bs. The Advertiser evidently
doesn't realize that there are always
two ways in which speech can be
interpreted. One is a true verbal
translation, and the other, one
which suits the individual ideas of
the interpreter. That perhaps ac-
counts for the Advertisers "gar-
bled" report.

Who is doing all this talk about
anti haole feeling, revenge, etc7
The Advertiser Of course. Among
the leaders OF the independent party
we hear nothing about these bogies
which are acting like nightmare
to Editor Thurston. By the way,
who set an example in the line of
political revenge and retaliation2
Was it not Editor Thurston who in
augurated that mode OF political
warfare in 1887 and 1882 Was it
not he, whose motto was rub tin"
turn the-rascals outp We didn't
approve OF the method at the time,
when efficient officials were turned
out OF Office because they, in their
honest opinion, could not follow the
lead OF Mr.. Thurston, and we do
not approve Of adopting the method
now when we perhaps have got an
inning. But it seems babyish to US
to have Editor Thurston hold up
his hands in horror and cry out:
"Oh. the bad, bad men they want
revenge and retaliation! Oh, dear
Congress do disfranchise them"
Editor Thurston needs not worry.
The Independent party simply
wants good men in favor of good
government. And it will get it
irrespective OF personalities and
past issues.

NATIVE HAwAIIANs PARTY.

Are the nati7e Hawaiians orgauiz-

is the question in every citizens
mind throughout the Territory.
Fair minded men will answer "No."
Upon the honest reading and honest

THE REPUBLICAN ORGANS.

1t is amusing to compare the ut
terances of the three Republican pa,
pers in this city in regard to the
forming OF an independent political
party in Hawaii. One of them bull
lies; the other claims that the Ha-
waiians are drawing the color line;
aud the third says that the advice Of
the Hawaiian leaders is against race
prejudices. The harmony in the re
publican ranks is not visible to the
naked eyes, as is we'll demonstrated
by the following extracts from the
three happy organs.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1900-06-08
A NEW PARTY.

A certain part of the Hawaiian
people has decided that it will be an
excellent thing for the advancement
of the territory to draw the color
line. 1t must he remembered that
it is the Hawaiians themselves who
have decided upon this distinction.
We shall be told bye and bye that
whites have drawn the line. 1t can
not be too soon understood that it
is the Hawalisns or "a section of
them, which has decided to make
distinction--not the whites. The
Republican and Democratic parties
here have thrown their ranks open
without distinction Of color. They
have formed on the broad lines Of
manhood suffrage, and are based
upon opinion, not on prejudice.
What this group of men intend to
do is to play upon the prejndices Of
their fellow countrymep, and have a
distinct anti-white party.--Hawaiian

The lack of tact displayed by the
government and more especially by
the Board of Education was shown
again when Hawaiian pupils OF the
High School were asked to assist in
the hosting of the American. flag
on June IA over the building where
Ruth and Pauahi lived. Can't these
people let well enough alone9 They
have got all they wanted; they have
killed what was dearer than parents
and children to the Rawaiians, and
now they ask them to dance on the
grave of the independence OF their
country. For shame have these
men and women who are set to edu-
cate our children no hearts, no feel
ings? Our children will all become
good American citizens, but they
will always remember that they are

least the humiliation Of putting

is easy of course for the school
teachers to find some Hawaiian
girls to take part in the ceremony,
but we arc sure it must be some,
whose parents and guardians are
not here, and who do not realize
the intense sadness OF the affair.

No Increase In saiarie. Probable.

No Increase I'm Salaries Probable.
Z. A. Ford, general passenger agent of
the Pennsylvania lines west says the cut
ting off of commissions will not work any
hardships upon the ticket agents of the
Pennsylvania lines West, as in 1890, when
the Chicago & Alton boycott was in force,
the Pennsylvania issued an order that no
ticket agent should receive commission. At
the time the order was issued the late ].
N. Mccullough, the vice president of the
Pennsylvania lines west, authorized Mr..
Ford to ascertain from every ticket agent
the amount ~ commissions he had been
receiving. and to adjust the salaries, as far
as practicable, on a basis that would make
the salaries of the ticket agents about the
same. bearing in mind that the ticket
agent may have given certain part of
his commission to the purchaser of the
ticket, or even to some ticket scalper to
secure business. The cutting off of COM
missions, he said, will, unless some change
Is made, cause greater demand on the
time of the travelling passenger agent and
minimizing OF the effort to sell through
tickets The agent who is really loyal to
his line will advocate that the passenger
buy 10 the gateway where he Is to turn
the passenger over to another company.
and there the passenger may buy on to
his destination over the other line unless
the travelling passenger agent of that con-
Meeting line has transacted the business
himself previously. but, so far as the
Pennsylvania lines are concerned. he thinks
the order to receive no commission has
been respected; at least, If any agent has
received commission their company has
never been apprised of the fact. Mr.. Ford
says so far as the Canadian Pacific be-
coming disturbing element in this COM
mission question, that If the roads that
have entered the agreement will stand
together they can thwart any effort of that
road to demoralize rates. 1T any rate the
Pennsylvania lines are in shape TO pro-
tect themselves against any encroachment
of the Canadian line.

THE PACKING INTERESTS.
Business of the Indianapolis Con-
Germs Since Nov. 4.

Since Nov. /, the beginning of the winter
packing season, Indianapolis packing
houses have killed $4,000 hogs. against S75,-
600 for the corresponding three months of
1898 and 1899, a decrease of $4,000. At all
points during that period 900 hogs have
been killed, against 7.945.O00 for the CORE
spending period last packing season,
decrease of 1,1S5.O 900 hogs. From comparison
ii will be seen that the Indianapolis pack
ers came nearer killing their usual num-
Der than at most of the other points. The
falling off is wholly due to a scarcity of
hogs. The quality this season is favorably
spoken of, but the higher prices for hogs
have embarrassed the slaughtering inter-
ests.
