My Interpretation Is that the English
language is tn, only language which
can be used. " ould Congress permit
a Spaniard to occupy a place on the
floor at Washington and address the
house in Spanish? 1 don't think so,
There is but one language in the Unit
ed States recognized by law and that
is English. l therefore shall vote
against the election of an interpreter a,

present incumbent to remain where he
is until such time as the rule for the
conduct of this Senate shall be made y
Senator'S White and Carter made i'm
passioned addresses on the point at
issue, one for and the other against the
election of an interpreter, and Achi
moved that it be laid upon the table.
Carter and Kanuha engaged in a lit
tie tilt in which one propounded ques-
lions and the other skillfully eyaded
answering them. The Independents
were solid for the election of an inter-
prefer and carried the question.

RAISE MORE TROUBLE
Another storm was raised in the Sen
ate by the proposal to elect an interpre-
ter and many warm speeches were
made on the subject. Cecil Brown took
the floor and said: 81 merely wish to
say something here at this time in re-
gard to section A of the Organic Act.
1 believe that under a strict construc-
ton of the law all proceedings of this
Senate must be carried on only in the
English language. My idea of the
meaning of the law is this:-that all
legislative proceedings shall be carried
on in the English language, and part
of the platform of the Republican party
was the intention to petition Congress
to permit the Hawaiian language to be
used, but until Congress sees At to
change the Organic Act we must com
ply with it. Some may say that If
this house keeps all records in English
they can speak in the Hawaiian tongue

HIS
CREDITORS
Talks Them Into Buying
Stock in His
Company.

That Nicholas Weaver is not appreci-
ated by the people at large or Samoa
and is much wanted by some of the
residents is evident from an article
which appeared in the San Francisco
Examiner under date of February II
and purporting to be a copy of dis
patches from Page Page on Janu-
airy &c.
The article states that three months
ago Weaver was in San Francisco with
money to burn and handing out cards
that proclaimed him Managing Di
rector of the Samoa Estates, Limited,
of Apia," with the explanation that he
proposed to make $1,000, 600 apiece for
each and every one of the solid Eng
lishmen who had gwen him their
financial confidence and backing. Now
he is back again in Same undismayed
by the clamor of his creditors who are
fiocking here to make ii warm FOR him.
But Weaver likes it warm. Before he
left the steamer Alameda he was met
by an eager gentleman who had a note
in his hand signed by weaver on a
previous visit and calling for nearly
Sc 900. In ten minutes he had his
friend buying stock in the Samoa Es-
tates. Limited" Some time ago one Of
WeaVer'S $4,000 notes signed mere u
year ago was sold for So. 1t Will cost
Weaver s.. $50 to make good unless he
can talk the figures off the race OF the
note Other creditors are hurrying
hfther from Auckland, n. r., with
claims amounting to $4,000. The
schooner now on her way here with
cargo consigned to Weaver may be
attached on her arrival Perhaps ne
will call convention of his creditors,
talk them into dull forgetfulness, per-
suade them their claims are stuff that
dreams are made of and invite them

look forward to, or he won't enlist in

its youth in offering them helping

4 CHANCE TO1
BE OFFICERS

| One of the most important and far
reaching bills introduced in Congress
this session is the recommendation Of
Secretary Long that meritorious boat
SWANS and gunners may be promoted
to the rank of ensign, the lowest COM
missioned rank in the navy, and cor
responding with the rank of second
lieutenant in the army. as it indirectly
affects thousands of men in the ser
vice and is a great step in the direc-
ton of solving a probe N which emf
nent wrlterS on naval ai1airs have con-
tended can be soIved IL but one way,
to wit, legislation which will give the
Z enlisted Men IN the navy at least a
hghtlng chance to retire with a COM
mission, and TO elevate not only him
self. but the entire personneI or the
navy.

rigidly drawn than between officer and

when the navy Of the United States
was not composed of the same material
as now. but that time has gone by.

has been wrought. ] do nor think that

offices allowed in the States were per-
mftted in the Territories, and was in
formed by White that the law permit

Cutting Down the Army.

The initial step has been taken by
the War department toward the reduc-
ton of the force of regulars in the
Philippines to 100000 Orders were ca
bled General Macarthur to send to the
United States the Fourteenth, Eigh-
teenth and Twenty-third regiments of
infantry, Fourth cavalry, Twenty
ninth, Thirtieth, Thirty-second and
Thirty-third companies of coast artil-
lery and the First, Eighth, Tenth,
Twelfth and Thirteenth batteries of
field artillery. The homeward move
ment of these troops can not be begun
until after the volunteers have been re-
turned. At present it is believed that
10000 men will be enough for the Phil
ippines. The manner in which the
troops shall be distributed among the

Keeping Flowers Fresh.

Cut flowers, though universally en-
ployed, are seldom treated as they
ought to be, so here are a few hints
for those who like to keep their bios
SONS fresh as long as possible.
First of all, they should be put into
some large receptacle and sprinkled
freely with water all over. Only after
this preliminary operation 1t is wise to
transfer them to the several pots they
are to occupy. They ought to be taken
out every morning, sprinkled as on
the first day. the tip of the stem then
being cut off. and fresh water, flow
ing from tap, should be allowed to
run over the stalks, holding the flow
ers head downward, says the Philadel-
phia Press.
Finally. and herein lies the principal
secret of success, the water in the
vases may be "doctored" in this man
ner. Mix thoroughly together table
spoonful of finely shredded yellow
soap, enough chloride of sodium to
cover form, and half pint of water.
Put in portion of this mixture into
every receptacle and fill in the usual
way
A pinch Of borax in each one will
preserve all the coloring of the most
brilliant flowers, and by renewing the
supply of the above solution every two
or three days the flowers will last for
a couple of weeks or more. Palms and
all foliage plants must be carefully
but moderately watered, washed, put
outside daily for bath of air and sun
shine and must not be stood in
draughty places.

The street cars in Oakland, Cal, are
now operated with electricity from the
Yuba river, 14O miles distant. The wa
ter power, having been converted into
electricity, is carried on wires six
tenths of an inch in diameter, made
of an alloy of copper and aluminium.
The electrical pressure is 10000 volts,
and the loss in transmission is said
to per cent. This is by far the long
est electrical transmission system for
power purposes in existence, and if the
loss is as small as it is stated to be,
it is the most promising indication Of
the possibilities of long-distance trans
mission yet furnished. Something
