Then next comes the singing fad
for which there is an instructor and
one assistant at a cost Of 1890 per
year The Instructor Of singing gives
instruction once a week At each Of
the leading schools. giving from one
hour and a half to two hours to each
school. which allows from fifteen TO
thirty minutes In each room There
Is 10 question that great value IS de-
rived by the pupils from this instruc-
ton The instructor herself shows
how valuable this instruction is by
her report In which she says:
We use the Tonic Sofia Notation in
grades one. two and three. In the third
grade the children sing simple two-part
songs az sight In grades four and i've
We teach the chromatic intervals IN
| Tonic Sofia and transpose the musical
knowledge OF the three previous years
into staff
Why there is no doubt that any
child in the schools can readily under
stand every word of this description
Of the manner in which the musical
instruction is being conducted
The Republican does not believe
any taxpayer should be called upon
to contribute towards the expense OF
teaching any Of these fads in the pub
lie schools. The public schools should
be maintained for the purpose for
which they were founded-for the in,
struction Of the children In the ele
mentary studies II any parent wishes
his child instructed in music or draw
ng OF agriculture he should pay for
ii out Of his own pocket just as be
should pay for his ohild's college edu
cation. The public schools should be
conducted upon the basis OF the great
est good to the greatest number. This
night schools reach a large number Of
young men who desire additional in
lstruction in the elementary branches
and better far that the night schools
hould be maintained for this purpose
than that fads, such as those emu
merated. should be maintained in tbs
schools.
Here in Hawaii where we are con
fronted with a serious language prob
lem it is far better for the schools
that the work in all the primary ant
grammar grades be devoted to tn
English language and to the rudi
ments of a practical education. Thi
is borne out by the report Of Super
intendent Atkinson himself who In hi
last report said:
Zone of the greatest drawbacks in til
/ work of our teachers is the teaching of
e language foreign to the children. This
especially noticeable in the l0toer grades
and even in the higher grades difficult,

II difficulty of language impedes tn

The House session of yesterday-the

PlJsSEL'S OPINION OF THE
GOVERNOR AND LEGISLATURE

You have voted all of them down. In
doing so you have shown that you do
not approve of any reforms. The pres
ent resolutions, Jas well as your refusal
to confirm several of the Government Of
ficials, throws some light upon your
ideas. You think that the unsatisfactory
condition of the country is due only to
the defective personnel of the admins
tration, and that by changing 1t you
will attain your ends-put the country to
rights.
l think such an idea is preposterous
So long as economical political and So
cial conditions are ruling, no change of
personnel will help. Nothing will be
by putting Peter instead of
John or the reverse. Therefore l will
refrain from voting on this or any sim
liar resolution. This does not mean that
l approve the present personnel but be-
cause l think no personnel will be able
to change a rotten system. 1t is useless
labor in which I do not care to partici-
pate.

1 rise to explain my views in regard to
this resolution. whose purpose is to ef-
feet the change in the personnel OF the
executive 1t was always my opinion
that this country, in political economi :
cal and social respects, was and is in an
abnormal and unhealthy condition, espe-
ciaIly so after the annexation, after
which it became a very heterogeneous
part of the United States of America,
which certainly it cannot remain, being
the integral part of the Union. 1t was
always my opinion that only rough a
series of important reforms the powerful
obstacles towards its development, pros
perity and assimilation with the United
States may be removed
/ have accepted the seat in this Sem
ate in order to give my assistance to
such reforms, and have brought them
up before you in the shape of few bills,
which. in my estimation 9f@ld and
would remedy the most crying evils.

wiiose legal places of residence were in

it is asserted, subsequent marriages are
invalid.
The court held practically that in cases
in which the decree is granted in States
where the husband and wife have made
their legal residence it is valid in any
part of the United States. but that in otn-
er cases in which there is no legal resi-
dcnce in the STATE in which the decree
is granted they are invalid. Opinions
were handed down by Justice Gray de-
claring invalid the divorces in the cases
OF Bell VS.. Bell and Streilworf VS.. Streil-
WORT.
In the cases of Bell VS.. Bell. involving
the validity of decree granted 10 the
husband in Pennsylvania. and in that of
Streilworf VS.. StFeilworr concerning de-
cree granted to the husband in North
Dakota, the DEGREES were declared in
valid because neither the husband nor
the wife had domiciie in the State in
which the divorce was granted.
In the case of Anterior VS.. Atherton
the court sustained decree granted in
Kentucky, where the parties had resided
as husband and wife, after the wife had
left the husband and gone to the home of
her parents in New York. The ease was

Lighter Horses PETER.

Farmers who have watched the ease
with which the large draft horses han
die heavy loads ON good roads or city
pavements have been led to think that
d heavy horse must be the better ami
NAL in all cases, and we see many farm
teams that are far inferior In the
amount OF WORK they can do in blowing
or in drawing a load upon soft ground
than a much lighter team would do
easily. Then the heavy horses are
driven over our billy roads often at a
rate of speed that causes them to pound
the earth so that the legs give out, and
they are quickly lame. 1t certainly
requires more food to sustain a 1000
pound horse than one weighing from
1000 to 1900 pounds, and when not
constantly employed drawing heavy
loads the amount of work done by the
heavy horses does not compensate for
the extra cost of maintaining them.
As farmers will have next spring to buy
horses or many will we advise them 10
turn their attention to the smaller
horses from Canada if they can be
found rather than to the Percherons
and Shire horses that have been so pop
ular lately. They will cost less prices,
cost less to keep, do about as much
work and endure much longer-Ex-
change

have no doubt that he often thought
he would have stayed on the farm If
he could have had some of the knowl.
edge about farming that used to have a
place in the Tribune in after years. but
we are not SO sure about it. Even In
those days there was more theoretical
teaching of farming than of any prac-
tical knowledge that would reduce ag.
riculture to an exact science. and we
think If he had been on the farm and
tried some of the methods advocated
in the Tribune his language might
have been as emphatic as any that he
used in political campaigns. But since
that date agricultural colleges and ex.
pertinent stations have done much to
educate the farmers and the farmers
sons, theories have been practically
tested, methods have been so well
studied thar. under certain conditions,

NICARAGUA ROUTE FAVORED.
Isthmian Canal Commission Is Unani-
nous in Its Report.

The isthmian canal commission. which
has been engaged for two years in in
vestigating the several canal routes TO
connect the Atlantic and Pacific oceans,
has completed its report. The commits
sion is unanimously and emphatically in
favor of the Nicaragua route, though a
canal by that route viii cost $4,000, 600
or 50.000, 200 more than to complete the
Panama cana. The commission found
many difficulties in the way of accepting
the Panama canal. both in construction
and in the concession.
1t would be impossible for the Panama
Canal Company to dispose of its fran
chise to any other government. 1t would
also be impossible for Colombia TO grant
new concession {, the United States.
The commission could find no way posi-
Bile for this governments taking up the
Panama canal II therefore recommends
the construction of the Nicaragua canal,
and gives the estimates for its cost The
estimated cost of the canal is $500 540.-
600. This is for canal suitable for
navigation by the largest ships now in ex-
istence. Ii single lockage system only
were provided the cost would be reduced
By S19.67S000, and further reduction
of SIG 9i9,000 could be made by narrow
ing the bottom width one-third in all the
excavated channels. These reductions
would bring the estimated cost of the
canal down TO S162,9l3, 900.

Nust Fight Alone.

While some of the great Industries
have apparently reached point where
they no longer care for protection. the
smaller concerns in most lines need ii
rs much as ever. The WOODEN Industry
could not live without ii. Even the
smaller manufacturers of iron and steel
articles would lie swamped If they had
to encounter foreign competition as
well az that Of the big trust ut home.
The removal Of the protective tariff in
any line would probably bring disaster
TO somebody But the Reporter Is not
advocating any set policy In the matter.
IT Is simply calling attention TO facts
and 10 conditions which seem destined
TO bring about q marked change in the
nations tariff policy. If the great
trusts have decided that they can hold
he fOreigc markets more surely with
out the impedlment of a protective tar
if at nome. then they will leave their
small rivals to fight alone for protee-
ton. and the result cannot fail 10 he
