~ therefore inform you that hereafter
you should come to me with an cases,
whether petitions to the Judge or the

Severe punishment win be given to-
those who disobey me-
what the punishment may be the
cdict does not say. But read the arr
rogance of the statement i'm the second
paragraph. You are not allowed to
confer with foreigners, merchants or
missionaries" Confer! No harm in
confer. but the Russian administrator
will have no conference. Things must
go the Russian way and no light must
be thrown on the subject by any West
ern man whether lay or cleric.
In these two paragraphs casually
picked up from the most recent of Con-
sular reports, a food Of light is thrown
upon Russia and its methods. People
are for ever talking of the progress Of
Russia, but the progress of Russia Is
as far distant as the progress Of china.
In the Western world we see the pro-
gressiye Russian, the refugee whose
nerve has slipped, and who will no
longer conduct hand to hand fight
with his government of wrong. The
Russian progressist and the Russian
physical coward fills the west, but he
is no representative of the true Russian
who kisses the very footsteps of his
Emperor. who regards the representa-
tive of his Imperial master as close on
to demigods, and who rather prefers to
be trampled under foot and III treated
by his masters, than otherwise And
Western powers join with Russia
against China. Is it any wonder that
the Russian cat gets the chestnuts and
the Western monkeys have their little
hands burned?

THE STONE INCIDENT.

The outcome of the Miss Stone Incl
dent is watched with much interest by
people on both sides Of the Atlantic.
The more one reads Of the story the
more one is impressed that certain
Turkish agents have been engaged in
the affair The Bulgarian prince also
has sort of cinch on the matter. He
seems to have been conducting sort
of legitimized brigandage to keep Mace
dOna in disorder, and incidentally to
raise funds to attack the unspeakable
Turk when the time should prove ripe.
The Balkan peninsula is one Of the
fairest spots on the globe, but it is in
habited by as ripe a set Of rascals as
the world has ever seen. Industrious
and peace loving races could draw un-
told wealth from the soil, but instead
the soil often lies idle, the mineral
wealth is unexpected, locomOtion is as
primitive as in the middle ages, and
the whole area is dominated by swash
bucklers both Christian and Moham-
medan. And to crown ALL this is the
twentieth century Of the Christian era
In the first decade of centuries of this
era, the Balkan Peninsula enshrined
the best Of the civilization and the
highest culture of the then known
world
If Miss Stones ransom is paid the
kidnapping of other missionaries will
become popular, and any impecunious
resident of the Peninsula might hope to
fill his purse, from the Sultan, down
ward, by swapping up a church man
here or a church woman there. Former
ly brigands used to capture rich bank
ers or members of the diplomatic corps.
Neither industry was very productive.
The heirs Of the rich bankers were
quite willing that the brigands should
keep the owners Of the wealth, and
happily divided the golden hoard
among themselves. Hard hearted gov
ernments, on principle, would not ran
som diplomats, there were plenty Of
aspirants who wanted their places. The
present is an entirely new bandit in
dustry, and if it should prove pecuni-
arily successful. the Sublime Porte is
not likely to let so lucrative a branch
of trade languish for want Of support.

WHAT MEMORIAL


There are various forms iu which BE-
mas been suggested that the memory
Of Mckinley should be honorcd. Some
suggest statue, some suggest q hose
pital. A statue is certainly am excellent
memorial when it is well executed 10
keeps the features of the distinguished
first citizen ever before generation yet
unborn. IL has been the method of
showing honor FOR centuries upon cen-
turtles. Every city has its statues Of
its great mel, its national heroes or its
national martyrs. But every city has a
proper place or places TO put it's memo
rails, and Honolulu has not We have
no wide spaces where the statues can
be placed to advantage, where they can
be made to harmonic with their sur
roundings, and neither look incongru-
Gus as to position, or dwarfed by an
inappropriate vicinage
A hospital bed is too small an affair
If these Islands, which owe so much
10 the personal interest Of the late Pre-
sident, can only raise the price of a
hospital bed they had better drop the
idea Of having any memorial at all. 4
memorial bed in a hospital is a most
worthy and excellent thing, but such
beds fail to perpetuate any memory.
The circle benefited is small, the very
people who occupy the beds in nine
cases out Of ten do not know why or
in whose memory the beds were estab-
lished.
What is needed is either a permanent
memorial like a statue, to which, as has
been shown, there are local objections
or some other memorial in which all
can participate. Now one suggestion
made seems to be both permanent and
practical, This city lacks air spaces
and will continue to lack them till II
will become so congested that air
space must be obtained at enormous
cost. If we raise, and there is no rea-
son why we should not raise, a sub
scription adequate to the number of our
population, we certainly ought to be
able to secure a number of such ali
spaces which could be known as Nc
Kinley parks. There might be one in
Palama, one in Nuuanu, one in the
heart Of old Chinatown and so on
With such spaces the name and the
memory would never die for it would
form a portion Of the daily life Of the
city, as long as the city lasted.

SOME RUSSIAN GEMS.

The Russian can manage a strike a
great deal better than they can manage
strike in san Francisco. 1T is anus
ing to see the antipodes of human ac-
d. ton. In the United States a man is
free, in Russia or in Russian posses
siOns man very readily finds out that
he is not free. 1t is a curious thing that
free nations admire so much the Rus
sian. If there is a despotism upon
earth it is Russia, and the mass of the
people remain ignorant enough to hug
the despotism to their hearts, and as
sist the despotic materials to raven up
on their helplessness. This is no fancy
picture, no form of prejudice. One has
only to read untramelled writer's in
comments upon Russia, both those Of
fifty or sixty years ago, and more, and
the recent writers like George KEENAN,,
who was only few months ago gently
but firmly sent across the frontier even
though he was an American citizen.
However to go back to Russian colo
NAL methods, the American Consul at
Niuchwang, China, transmits some in
teresting information to the Western
world. He sends transations of the
edicts posted by the Russian civil ad-
ADMINISTRATION in charge of the city
1t appears that the owners Of the oil
factories sent petition to the Russian
administration stating that the work.
men had stopped work for three days
scheming for an increase Of wages. The
Russian administrator posted the fol-
lowing notice, which certainly was
comprehensive enough. 1t was as fol-
lows:
Il have found out that wages have
once every year. What caused this
been increased in the last three years,
stoppage of work? By the law of Rus
STA, labor leaders VINO stop work or
trading should receive the same punish
ment as rebels, and followers should
also be punished strictly.
Il have therefore arrested and pun
ished the leaders, and post this notice
10 inform you that all should begin
work as usual, not later than tomor-
row.
Anyone disobeying this will be i'm
mediately arrested and expelled from
this port"
There is a simplicity and direetness
about the Russian system which might
commend it to the merchants of San
Francisco. Labor leaders who stop
work or trading should receive the
same punishment as rebels" This
would be certainly a new view for the
Rosenbaums, the Irritskys, the PlotO-
witches, the Gozenoffs, and other good
Americans who have been injuring
American industry at the coast. In
their own delectable countries they had
TO toe the mark, now they have got
over into our country they are max
ing the American workman toe the
mark. Meanwhile the Russian govern
ment goes calmly on.
Another pleasant edict of the Russian
civil administrator, Gospodin A. Ostro
verkhow, has a little to say about mer
chants and missionaries which will
hardly be palateable either on the
mainland or here. The edict reads:
Notice is hereby given to all the
people and merchants of Niuchwang:
Since this port is administered by the

A visit to the police court when there
happens to be a gala day before Judge
Wilcox gives one an idea of what a
heterogeneous population ours is. There
is the gentle Hawaiian, generally good
natured and smilingly confessing to a
cheap drunk on swipes. There is the
Japanese of education and foreign cos
tune and there is the low caste Jap
with hang dog face There is also the
Chinese of both classes and the Porto
Rican now embellishes the picture, ap-
pearing in various cOlors from almost a
pure castilian type to that of the negro.
Dash in among these Norwegian, Yam
kee, German and British sailors, with
a few waits whose nationality 1t is al
most impossible to establish, and you
have as heterogeneous a collection as
you can find in a sailors dance house
at Mapping, or, according to Kipling, in
a gambling den at Port Said. ..

The Canadians are talking Of chal-
longing for the America cup, and no
doubt the Canadians will put up a very
good struggle for it. 1t seems very evil
dent that Sir Thomas Upton has come
to the conclusion that he is not out Of
any future contests for the cup. Cam
ada may come in for the off year, or
Shamrock l may put in the time, and
then Shamrock II may have her second
try. If Canada starts in challenging
one may be very certain that sporty
Australia will not be far behind.
