organized in that city with capital OF

Walking on Water.

In the debate upon the revenue cut
ter bill the house near the close of the
session got pretty badly tangled up be-
tween internal revenue and customs
revenue and army officers, naval Off
GERS and officers of the revenue marine.
Colonel Hepburn tried to straighten
things out by suggesting in a humor-
GUS, blunt way that these officers were
not likely to come into conjunction
with each other. "The troops operate
upon the land" he said, with the air
of one imparting solemn information,
while naval officers maneuver their
ships upon the sea. There can be no
possible conflict between them unless
some way is devised for soldiers to
walk upon the water or for ships to
sail upon the land"
Speaking of walking upon the wa
ter" interrupted Talbert of South Car
olina, do you remember a namesake
of yours, one Peter, who in olden times
walked upon the water?"
'My recollection is" answered Hep
burn, that he did not make much
headway."
"The difficulty in that case" added
Talbert, was a want of faith. If
these gentlemen Of the revenue marine
had sufficient faith, they might walk
upon the water"

Wants Native Language Taught.


Delegate Wilcox of Hawaii is an
the Kanakan language in the schools
of that territory, not as an exclusive
language necessarily but the same as
French, German, Latin and Greek are
taught in the schools of the United
States. "They are slowly crushing out
the native language in the schools and
colleges of the island" he declared.
"The case of the College Of Lahaina-
luna, on the island of Maui, Is a re-
cent notable instance. That college
has graduated many OF our most not
ed Hawaiians
But there is another phase Of the
subject. The history and literature Of
the Hawaiian people are written almost
entirelyon manuscript and are Of course
in the Hawaiian tongue. Students Of
history, for example, who wish to learn
the native language to explore this ex-
tensive field Of research are shut out
from such an opportunity. Other Ian
guages are taught in the schools of this
country. 1t seems to me entirely rea-
sonable that schools and colleges in
Hawaii should be allowed to teach the
Hawaiian language"
Senator Hoar's Joke.
Senator Hoar has discovered that it
does not pay to be funny unless you
label the joke,
While the senate was discussing a
railroad bill having for it's purpose the
protection Of railroad employees from
accident Senator Hoar suggested that
the best plan would be to make the
directors of each road ride upon the
cowcatcher. 'Then." remarked Mr..
Hoar, nobody would get hurt"
Senator Elkins, who is several times
a railroad director, took the suggestion
quite seriously and expressed his sur
prise that such proposition should be
submitted to the senate. "Oh, dear"
replied Mr.. Hoar, quite taken back at
the lack of appreciation of his humor,
Il meant that for jest. And it
wasn't original with me either. Rich
ard II. Dana many years ago suggest
ed that directors ride upon the cow
catchers, although" added Mr.. Hoar
as he surveyed Senator Elkins' ex-
pansive form, 81 must say that the
senator from West Virginia would
make an admirable cushion to place
between colllding trains"
The unofficial reports current some
time ago that Lord Pauncefote. the
British ambassador, would have his
nnriod of Sprvicn in XNashinoton rom
tinued have now been fully confirmed,
and 1t appears that the extension will
last throughout the present year and
is likely to be followed by another ex-
tension, owing to the ambassadors
vigorous health and thorough ac-
quaintance with all of the important
international questions in which the
two governments are interested.

The Good That Unions Do.

The labor organization not only helps
those who belong to it, but it also helps
those who are not members, for even
those on the outside share to n greater
or less extent in the better wages, the
shorter hours and the more favorable
conditions secured by the labor organi-
cations. If unions or federations make
mistakes, it must be remembered that
perfection is not to be expected in any
work of human hands. The good done
by these organizations far outweigh
the errors which they have committed.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Courtesies by Customs OfIcers-waIk-
ing on Water--Wants Native
Language Taught.

Secretary Gage has issued an order to
customs officers that will oblige them
to forego some of the courtesies here
tofore extended to American travellers
and will annoy those persons who have
enjoyed the courtesies from year to
year on their departure for or return
from Europe.
A practice has existed for many
years under which the treasury has oc-
casionally issued instructions to col
lectors to extend special courtesies to
persons named upon their arrival from
foreign ports upon reasons set forth in
applications made directly to the de-
partment This privilege was original
ly granted only to principal members
OF the diplomatic corps and other high
officials of foreign nations and to inva-
lids and other persons entitled under
some peculiar conditions to considera-
ton.
The demand for such courtesies has
constantly grown in extent, and the
practice has afforded justifable
grounds for protest against its discrim-
ination between private citizens. The
department has also received informa-
ton which shows that the safety Of the
revenue requires return to the orig-
nal purposes of the usage.
The chief officers of customs are in
structed that the extension of special
courtesies to arriving passengers will
hereafter be limited to foreign embas-
sadors, ministers, charges d'affaires,
secretaries of legation and high COM
mssoners and to similar representa-
tives of this government abroad re-
turning from their missions. all the
above officers being entitled by interna-
tional usage to the free entry of the
baggage and effects of themselves, their
families and suits without examina-
tion.

TO GROSS THE ATLANTIC.

PARIS, October 22.-Figaro today
states that if NJ. Santos Dumont. the
Brazilian aeronaut, is successful i'm the
proposed trip across France to Corsica
and Algeria, he will endeavor to cross
the Atlantic Ocean in 1902 i'm balloon
larger than the present one
The Aerostation Commission has not
decided whether Santos Dumont is en-
titled to the prize of 100000 francs offer
ed by NJ. Deutsch for a dirigible bal
loon. No decision will be made before
November, as the competition remains
open until October 81. If in the mean
time another competitor should appear
and fulfill the conditions he would share
in the prize.
Prince Roland Bonaparte, president Of
the commission, and NJ. Deutsch are
both of the opinion that Santos Dumont
has won the prize, and the latter has
telegraphed the aeronaut to this effect
added that ne is convinced the com
mission will award it to him.

A SUGGESTION.

BY all means, let us ferret out and
NUM- down the anarchists, shut them
up, deport them from our shores, close
their mouths against announcements
to crime. But let us also be just with
ourselves, because our own skirts are
not clear. When a gentle, high-mind-
ed, patriotic man is denounced every
where as tyrant, the speaker Is ac-
cessory to a future assault upon him,
whether the words be uttered by anar-
chist or by political orator striving to
make capital for his party Party
spirit may be just as intense, just as
loyal, far more effective, without these
wild ecstasies of invective. While we
are denouncing anarchy, let us not for
get the danger of unbridled party spir-
it, There are enemies to freedom with
in as well as without.-Seattle p. /.
This may be taken right here in Ha-
wall, where certain newspapers and a
few demagogues are stirring the public
against Governor Dole to the danger
point The belligerent dog is not worse
