The revival Of business foretold by

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
of what politics sOever are placed in
charge of our local affairs, and when
the people settle down to the develop

condition of affairs will come about
which will make Of these islands one
of the best and most desirable places
for business and pleasure, beneath the
folds of odd glory"

What About the Fourth +?

Are we to have no Fifteenth Of Jnly
or Fourth of July at Wailuku this ear?
The July races seem to have gone by
default, but it is not too late, nor too
early, to begin to make preparations
TO celebrate our natal day and also
that of our Uncle Sam. Let some one
call meeting of the citizens, 50 that
the matter may be put under way.
The Water System.
Work has commenced on the Kahu-
lui water system. From the Wailuku
depot, the pipe line will run over the
sand hills in a nearly straight line to
kahului. Some 5000 feet of pipe will
be required, and is now being hauled.
In about twenty days, the line will be
completed. The head of the pine line
for Kahului will be about 22O feet
above sea level, thus giving ample pres

A High School Wanted

Wanted-a High School. To merely
mention the fact that high school is
an imperative need of Waikiki, will
be sufficient to suggest to the minds OF
many that it is somewhat singular that
such an institution has not already
been established here The Island of
Maui is we'll equipped with primary
schools, and their teachers are as good,
with few exceptions, as can be found in
Massachusetts or California. Year af-
Ter year, young men leave these pri-
mary or grammar schools, just at the
time when they begin to appreciate
the need of an education; but because
they are not able to go off 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 a. d
heavy expense by parents who are
hardly able to bear the expense, simply
because there are no facilities for
higher education at home Wailuku is
an ideal spot for high school, on ac-
count of it's climatic ond other advan-
tages and the people of Maui generally
and of Wailuku in particular, should
lend their aid to a movement in this
direction.

Plantation Labor.

There seems to 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
to 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
single word,-cooperatio Mr.: Low
rie, of Spreckelsville, who, by the way,
is the pioneer in the introduction of
this system among the Japanese, has
already made arrangements by which
the larger part of the H. c. & S. Co.'S
land at Spreckelsville is being worked
under this system. It is quite proba-
BILE that within a year, this system will
prevail on all the plantations on the
Islands, to the mutual advantage of
the tabOrers and the shareholders.

Notwithstanding that the war cloud on the Chinese horizon has been threat ening for months, England did not prohibit the shipment of arms and am munition to that country until Tues cay of last week. The Chinese army is said to be well armed with the most improved weapons, mostly of European make, and the British manufacturers seem to be responsible for a large share of the equipment. It appears, also. that the Chinese have been too shrewd to accept the pot meta! guns which enterprising Birmingham man. ufacturers have been in the habit of supplying to various savage peoples, and which are more dangerous to the user than to the enemy. They seem to be handling none but the best.

Although Collis P Huntington was not popular on the Pacific coast, his
 strongest enemies there
 COLLIS P. will not deny that he
 HUNT was a remarkable man.
 INGTON. He was not only mas
 terly organizer, which implies deep knowledge Of human na- ture, but he possessed in an eminent degree all the qualities that go to make a successful financier. The word 'fail'' had no meaning for him. At the time of life when most men suffer inn pairment of their mental faculties his grew keener. His public utterances and his plans made public from time to time after he had passed his seventy-fifth year attested to the con tinued alertness of his mind. If the Southern Pacific and the Central Pa cific railroads were not a. sufficient administrative genius, the town of Newport News, Virginia, would supply such a memorial. Where a few years ago was a strip of sand on Chesapeake bay, facing the capes of Virginia, now is bustling town of more than 10000 people, its basis being one of the lArg- est and best equipped ship yards in the world. MT. Hunting ton conceived this town and this ship yard and the pro- duct of his brain is what he expected it would be. He had a wonderful power of seeing into the fUture. When he. embarked in a project the world felt certain that 1t would be successful. His failure to induce the government to try to build a harbor at Santa Monica was surprise to the coast people. who have had many startling examples of his power at Washington, and but sup piled the exception that proved the rule e his remarkable achievements. When a man like Senator Frye of Maine will stand up in the senate of the United States and argue in the most convinc- ing manner in favor of harbor whose headlands are at least twenty miles apart, it must be conceded that the moving spilit is unusually strong, to say the least. Mir. Huntington sur rounded himself with men Of high at tainments and paid them handsome salaries and the res ultant organiza- ton was all that the most ambitious financier could wish for. His history reads like a romance, and his name will endure for many years to come

As a result of the presentation of The Republicans plan for solving the water storage problem everybody in the Salt River valley is discussing the water question. In accordance with the pol icy of this newspaper to print ths views of all who may wish tG make them known we have secured a pretty fair idea of the trend of the public mind. It is generally agreed that permanent water supply is necessary to the continued growth and prosperity of the valley. As might have been eX pected, several plans have been pre- scented for the conservation of the storm waters. The Republican takes the ground that one plan, and one only, should be considered at a time. If the project it has advanced fails to meet with popular approval it will not be backward in advocating some other that also has a common sense basis. At this season of the year when so many residents of the valley are ab sent it is difficult to cover the question fully. It is gratifying to know, how ever, that the people are becoming in- terested in this most vital problem. With the opening of the fall season we shall look for decided action in con- nection with it.

The report that President Kruger is willing to surrender if assured that he will not be sent to St. Helena is only a report, but there may be truth in it.. If so, it would seem folly for the Brit ish government to refuse the modest terms proposed. There is very little more harm. He is too old, and his available forces too much broken up to begin a fresh campaign, either now or in the near future. On the other hand, his surrender would probably end the war, and thus release the troops needed for service in China. A slight exercise of magaanimity might do effective work just at this time.

The new Vickers quick-firing gun, lately adopted by the United States navy department after trial operates on an entirely new principle. The breech block. instead of being screwed into the breech, slides upward into place to close the breech and downward to open it. Under the block is a lever to operate by a spring when the gun recoils, So that immediately upon discharge of the gun the breech block is pulled down, the same motion turning a clip which ejects the empty cartridge sh5H. The gunner then lays the new charge on top of the open breech block, when the weight of the shot sets in motion the same levers to move the projectiie and it's case for ward into the firing chamber close the hreech and fire the gun.

Young women frequently wsar belts that were manuufa ctured to go round the necks of dogs. They show thus how slender their waists are, a dog collar being big enough to clasp them. Phil osophers can dig out no other reason for this fad. In Philadelphia the other 56ay young woman wore an engraved dog collar belt which she had borrowed for the time from her fathers mastiff The engraving was of a nIastiff's head and around it ran the words: I am John Browns dog. Whose dog are you?" Smiles and sneers were hande d out to the young woman from those who read the belt. and she apeared to be delighted with the attention she was winning.

Richard Yates, republican candidate for governor of Illinois, is receiving general support from veterans of the civil war. many of whom have formed republican clubs.

Yates remarked that their return to civil pursuits at tho close of the war was a signal example of the folly of trying to make an issue in this country out of militarism.

Captain J. B. Coghlan, who, as com

 LIGHT. has been granted to
 some people who are now ready to solve it offhand, has no patience with the theory that Aguin- aldo was either recognized or used as an ally by Admiral Dewey. To re- who recently interviewed him on the subject, Captain Coghlan, referring to the weeks immediately after the de- struction of Montito's fleet, said: 'Aguinaldo and others frequently came over to see the admiral but they were always received as other men who be-
 haved themselves. At no time were they received with military honorS or recognized or used in any way as our allies. It is my opinion that they never thought of independence or anything of the kind when they first arrived at Manila; they came more for the pur- pose of getting revenge on the Span iards." The captain declared that all of Aguinaldo's proclamations were written by an Englislman named Bray n Singapore barrister regularly em- ployed for that purpose. As for the feeling of the Filipinos for the Amer jeans Captain Coghlan said: As a whole. they were very friendly, and they had every reason to be, for it was

Some times it is both feet and sometimzS it is but one foot. He does not pretend to account for this ungraceful habit, but 1t presumably arises from improper or a total lack of physical training.
