THE THREE OLDEST
HONOLULU CHURCHES

The oldest church in Honolulu is, of
The people of the church are showing
considerable interest in their jubilee year
1.-The 18th anniversary of the church Rev.
W. D. Westervelt, Sunday evening, in the
course of his sermon, took occasion to
call attention to the churches which have
followed the planting of this old historic
church-speaking especially of the first
three churches of Honolulu. He referred
to the number of grass or matched
churches built for Kawaiahao as related
in the address by Mr.. Lilikalani, and then
spoke of the stone church-the Oldest and
most historic of all the church buildings
of the Islands. The influence of this
work among the natives was felt among
the foreigners, and it seemed necessary
for some new work to be established in
Honolulu, with the hope that the good re-
suits of the labors in behalf of the ma
tives might also be secured for the large
number of sailors and others frequenting
the Hawaiian harbors
In 1892 Queen Kaahumanu died. She
had been the favorite Queen of Kameha-
meha ]. and the Premier during the early
part of the reign of Kamehameha III.
Her death was followed by an attempt of
the old heather elements IL the Kingdom
" SccuTS COutTOl VI the young Ming. w at
was imminent. Kinaus the sister of the
young King, 'in the presence of a great
assembly of the opposing interests. walk
ed through the crowd, came up to her
brother, and, saluting him, uttered her
noble motto, We cannot war with the
Word of God between u.s." The young
King announced his intention of hand
ling the reins of government himself and
then selected his sister Kinau as the Pre-
mier.
1t was felt that this was a good time
to institute church work for foreigners
The missionaries had preached in Eng
lish from time to time, but they were
sent to labor prominently for the Ha-
waiians. May /, 1893, Rev. John DELL
commenced his labors as seaman's chap
lain. He brought with him most of the
frame for chapel, which was speedily |
the first frame church |
in the Islands. 1t would seat about 200 |
people. This was the old Bethel church |

the Manchu rule; several times they
have nearly accomplished their object
The presence of the missionary has ag
gravated the case. Some nations, under
the pretense of guarding the rights OF
the church, have made great demands
upon China and secured large conces-
slons. The established rule of France
and Germany over portions of China was
thus obtained. The Chinese feel much
hatred against Russia because of what
she secured at the close of the japan
CHINA war. All this establishment of
foreign power renders it more difficult,
and puts off the day when the Chinese
may successfully attempt the overthrow
of the present ruling class
Mercantileism must bear it's share of
the present trouble. The obtaining of
valuable privileges and the forcing of
western products upon the people, thus
disturbing their commercial life has
greatly affected the public mind against
foreigners. Added to this China is ex-
periencing a season of hard times since
the importation of rice was forced, six
years ago, 1t has sold at double the nor
NAL price. Wages have not been general
~ raised, and the people are naturally
restless and are angry at the foreigners
whom they blame for their troubles. The
Empress Dowager hates the foreigners;
the Boxers hate her first and the foreign
ers next They are ready for anything
that will lead her into collision with for
elgn Powers and dethronement
The Manchu dynasty should be over
thrown. China should not be dismem
bered. America should lend a hand to
this end. Western commerce and ciyili-
cation will yet prevail in China Mis-
sionary work will be resumed at the ear
Hest possible moment. Christianized Chi
ma will some day be mighty factor in
the worlds life.

THINKING.

What we want to do at the present is
to arouse feeling towards the United
States as that of child to mother,
as that of a fugitive to the embracing
shelter which will give safety. There
may have been mistakes in the bill.
There may be cranks who are allowed
their chance to speak and to vote in the
freest spoken assembly in the world,
and they may have for a time, been
successful, but there can be no doubt
that justice can be attained at last, for
in the United States class prejudice has
to give way to manhood suffrage.
We may with pride look upon the
past. The movement toward the United
States was an honest one, and was
joined in not only by Americans, but
by men of varying nationalities, be-
cause they saw that the only hope of
stability lay there. The little kingdom
might have been, and was picturesque,
but it was, with all it's glitter a very
tinsel affair. And this without any
unkind words towards the kingdom of
the past.
A change had to come. No matter
how Gripping or how arduous. Think
for moment what would have been
the position of the Islands today, after
the bubonic plague, if the Islands had
not been under American rule. With
the Japanese population now existent
here and a couple of Japanese men of
war, there would be nothing for us to
do but to yield to all demands.
But it is a very different matter when
we stand in the position we do now, and
can simply refer any question to the
central government. The actual gov
eminent is powerful, and it's arm can,
at times, stretch across the sea with
force that Dewey explained in Manila
Bay. The Hawaiian Islands cannot be
bullied by any one, because they are
now and will be forever, integral part
of the United States.
Whatever mistakes may have been
made in Congress, that we may object
to, we may be perfectly certain will in
time be amended. We have the in
alienable right of agitation, and that is
one of the most valuable known. What
we have escaped is gobbling up by an
eastern power. There has been only one
power to whom the Hawaiian Islands
have reason to give thanks. That pow
er is the United States. Any errors may
be counteracted, and even before our
cry goes FORTH they may have ceased
to exist

The spring flight always takes place.
Our social swallows wing their way
eastward, instead of southwark as the
true swallow does from the uncongenial
north when the cold strikes his little
glistening throat But our swallows go
for many purposes. They don't fly from
our climate; they don't fly from the
glamour of our pleasant social ways.
But they fly to new suns, for even Eden
may pail upon one. Hawaii, to one who
has had experience of other climes, is
Eden. But as the French say, "toujours
perdrix," partridge every day becomes
somewhat tame, and like foolish people
we fly, but then how happy we are
to get back again. The older one grows

Admiral Dewey is beginning to find
out that it is one thing to be naval
hero, and quite different thing to hope
that hero-worship will be carried into
politics Admiral Dewey as head of the
navy and conqueror of a Spanish fleet
is one thing. Admiral Dewey as can
didate for the presidency, is quite an
other thing. The only result for Dewey
will be chagrin and annoyance, He has
been badly advised.

JAPANESE IN CHINA.

Many Departments.

They Are SuppIantfnH Europeans In
Many Departments.
The Berliner Neueste Nachrichten, the
acknowledged organ of Mr.. Krupp, the IA
nous proprietor of the Essen gun and can
non foundries, is concerned over the fact
that the Japanese are Offering strong
competition in China against Germany,
even in the field of military instruction.
The Pekin correspondent Of the Berlin
paper sent it lately significant letter on
the subject. He says:
The sfforts of the Japanese have been
made up to the present time in China
mainly in the polftico-commercial field.
They are now trying to exercise in mill
tary affairs also decisive influence. This
attempt is going on slowly, but constantly,
and seems to be encouraged by the Pek!n
government. 1t looks, anyhow as If the ex-
istence of Chino-Japanese entente could
be no longer placed in doubt. The center of
the Japanese efforts is at Wau-Chang, the
residence of the governor general, Tchang
Hi Toung, who in order to emulate his
people, makes more and more use of the
assistance of the Japanese, and presents
them everywhere and on every occasion as
an example to be followed. 1t may be added
as unique and unprecedented fact that
the governor general has sent one OF his
young relatives to Japan to be brought up
and educated there
The japanese occupy professorships in
several schools of Wau-Chang, and are
tLlpioStu also lOT the tTdISidllOu especially
of military books. This japanese invasion Is
encouraged and supported by a small but in
iuential party at the court of Governor
General Tchang XII Toung. whose principal
representative exercises the functions of
permanent agent at Toxic, where he dis
plays great activity to the benefit of Japan.
Last year the sending of Chinese pupils
to the war school of Japan had already
begun, upon a small scale, of course But
since then it has assumed greater proper
tons. and numerous intelligent officers Of
the governor general are constantly sent
to Japan. where nothing is neglected to win
them over to the japanese cause. The peo-
pie, though little disposed in favor Of the
Japanese, are too indolent to make any
opposition. They look on the Japanese as
one more foreigner. to whom they have
got accustomed, as to the others. At the
present hour the military efforts Of the
Japanese are evidently making better prog
ress than ever. Their officers who have
been engaged to serve at Vou-Chang in the
inoffensive capacity Of military transators
are in reality destined to fill the offices of
instructors and military chiefs. The ex-
ample of Governor General Tchang XII
Toung is likely to be initiated in other parts
of China.

Improvement in Postal Service.

In addition to changes announced by the
Post Office Department today it Is said that
a number of other improvements will be
in effect during the next fiscal year. The
increased appropriation. it is said, will
enable many more clerks to take the fif-
teen days leave of absence contemplated
by law. and an emergency fund will be
placed at the disposal of first-class offices
for extra assistance during holidays and
other times when there is a large increase
of business. The post office officials have
strong hopes that if conditions continue TO
improve it will be feasible to limit working
hours throughout the service to eight hours

MARKETS OF GUATEMALA.
Secret of the Increased Success of the
Germans.

In report to the State Department in re-
gard to the markets of Guatemala, United
States Consul General McNally at Guate-
mala tells one of the secrets Of the great
success of the Germans in securing In
creased trade with South American coun-
tries. Foreign firms, particularly Ger
mans, have power of imitation he says
that helps to increase their business with
these countries. They acquire a knowledge
of the habits and tastes of the people and
of the prices they usually pay for certain
articles of home manufacture such as
wearing apparel, etc; they then make the
same article. underselling the natives them
selves. To Illustrate: The Indians make a
certain article called the mountain coat
They spin and weave the raw cotton and
wool in the crudest possible way vet the
garment is woven so closely that it is prac-
tically waterproof. The Germans initiate
this article 50 closely that the Indians
themselves cannot tell the difference; and
to cap the climax, give them to the Indians
to sell.
IF our manufacturers will make up their
minds to meet the conditions that are TODAY
influencing and controlling trade in Guate-
mala, as well as throughout all Central and
South America, we will win the markets."

KENTUCKY INsTRUCTs FOR BRYAN.
Chicago Platform IndOrsed-Repeal of
GOebel Inv Advocated.


GOebel Law Advocated.
The state democratic convention. which
met at Louisville, KY, yesterday. selected
the following delegates-at-large to the ma

City, Mo-, July 4: Senator j. c. S. Black
burn, eX-Gov. James B. McCreary, Louis
McQuown. Charles B. Poyntz, James 2.
Gregory, William S. Pryor, N. w. Utley
and c. s. Bradford.
The platform reaffirms the Chicago plat
form and instructs the twenty-siX delegates
from Kentucky to cast their votes for
Bryan and to vote as a unit on all ques-
tions The republican national policy was
denounced in its entirety, as were separate
ly Imperialism, the Porto Rican tariff bill,
the maintenance of an army in the Philip
pines and the financial policy sympathy
was expressed for the two South African
republics trusts were denounced. the demo-
Gratis of Kentucky were congratulated for
their course in the recent troubles, the as
sassination of Goebel was declared to be
the result of republican conspiracy, and
William s. Taylor and his official acts were
denounced.
Senator Blackburn after reading the reso-
buttons addressed the convention on pro-
posal to modify the present election law,
known as the Goebel law. He said the COM
mittee had been perfectly harmonious and
that ii had agreed that modification of the
law. which he said had been failure, was
necessary. This, he said, had been the
opinion of Gov. Goebel himself. The amend
n,ents recommended are such as will give
the two leading parties equal representa-
ton on election boards, and the democrats
claim, insure fair and honest count. The
committee also favored an educational
qualification for voting. These changes,
Senator Blackburn said, it had been decid-
ed to leave to the convention to nominate a
governor which will be held July 10 in Lex
ington.
Modification of the Goebel election law, 1t
is said, was advocated by William Jennings
Bryan, who has written democratic leaders
here to that effect.
After the election of Morton X. Yontz and
