THOUGH BLIND. SHE SEES.

Helen Keller has been over the
EVangelne land this summer and is en-
thusiastic about the journey. The Of
fetal people of the land We'd with each
other i'm showing Miss Keller attention.
She was the honored guest at the COM
mencement exercises of the Halifax In
stitute for the Deaf and Dumb and
made the occasion memorable with a
little speech that was as bright as 1t
was sweet A brilliant bit Of descrp-
ton was her recital of a storm, the
worst she was ever out in on the ocean
She began with: Il spent much time on
the water rowing and sailing, and
drinking in the fresh, salt air and 1t
was a Joy to bound over the great
waves" and with the words, Great
waves" her shapely white hands swept
a graceful curve with forceful abandon.
Then sitting alertly erect and freely
gesturing she told how one Saturday
she sailed down the Halifax harbOr to
witness a regatta. THE harbOr was
damned full of yachts and small crafts
in the beginning" she said, and we
had great difficulty in getting around.
When the storm broke all the little
boats except ours scudded home. The
waves were so high that we slid
straight down into the trough, the boat
lay way over on one side"-Miss Keller
suited the action to the woodland the
water lifted itself over the gunwale and
came into the boat" At this point the
pitch of her voice was raised and there
was great excitement pictured on her
face 81 was sorry to see them take
down the sail and go home under the jib
for / exulted in the storm. A Viking
could not have been happier" Miss
Sullivan, her companion, said that Miss
Keller was tense with excitement that
day, and that when the waves tossed
the boat the highest she laughed with
all her heart and gave herself to the
wild spirit of the hour.
Miss Sullivan. who has been with her
from those earliest days of chaos when
she could not express herself in any
way, says, Her lovely disposition is
more than her bright mind or her in
tellectual achievements"

Last weeks Hawaii Herald deyotes
several columns 20 the proposed new
party TO be organized on Hawaii.
Doubtless the Hawaiians feel some dis
satisfaction at the political results so
far achieved by their representatives.
but it Is ChimeriCal to suppose that
the Hawaiians can at the present time
unite i'm support of any set of princi-
pies, no matter how ardently they may
advocate them. The cohesion TO be ef-
fected is that wrought by a party lead
er who is strong, shrewd and popular
enough to hold them together So far,
Robert Wilcox is the only man who has
developed strength enough to hold the
Hawaiians together. Remove Wilcox
from the leadership, and the Hawaiians
would split up into innumerable fac
tons. This will happen as soon as the
Hawaiians really understand the hol-
lowness OF Wilcox's pretention, and out
of the chaos which will follow, new
composite party will spring up which
will give to the territory the progress
sive and American form of government
which is most desirable Maui News.

AFTER CANE

1t is too soon by many years yet to
discuss seriously what line of indus
tries shall be developed to succeed the
sugar industry, but when that time
does come, if ever, the question will
settle itself readily. With all the cane
land and it's water supply thrown open
to new Corners in smaller or larger
rentals, farmers from the Coast would
flock to the Islands in shoals from the
States, and yankee ingenuity and thrift
would soon develop new and profitable
industries that would make veritable
paradise of the Islands. True, the in
come from exports would not be so
large, but it would be more thorough
ly distributed, producing a far more
prosperous condition among the masses
on the Islands than exists at the pres
ent time-Maui News.

FoRBIDDING MENTION OF HIM.

IF it could be forbidden" says the
Boston Herald, speaking of Czolgosz,
that his name should ever be spoken
or printed, il would be a great adVan-
tage." Why? and How? The asser-
ton depends partly on the assumption
that the impelling motive of the assas-
sin was a morbid desire for notoriety,
an assumption which candor must ad-
nit has had very little in his acts or
words since he was arrested to sustain
it, Certainly he did not try to utilize
the opportunity he had at the trial, and
which everybody predicted he would
try to utilize, to justify himself or to
make anarchical speeches. Unless the
man should explain himself, his motive
must always be more or less obscure
and even an explanation might not
make it clear Men often do things for
whose reasons they are not themselves
quite sure, and this may easily be one.
The only other reason that we can
think of for wanting the mention of his
name forbidden is that somehow other
intending assassins will be impressed.
1t shows, to our mind, pretty limited
conception of the workings of the hui
man mind, as well as total forgetful-
ness Of the way i'm which the world has
viewed this murder. AS to the later
consideration, the universal horror and
eXecratiOn are far more impressive
than any silence might be; and as to
the former, we doubt If either eXecra-
ton or silence would have much effect
on the mind of the individual who had
made up his mind to become an assas-
sin. The difficulty with all the argu-
ment which attempts to show that this
course or the other course should be
adopted because it will most influence
the mind of an intending murderer Is
that the human mind is infinite i'm its
variations, and that no single mind Is
able to comprehend the working of any
other single mind. You do not compre-
bend the mind Of your most familiar
friend; how can you expect to know

There is no doubt but that special
session Of the Legislature could be made
fruitful of much financial benefit to the

stances II would be quite proper to call
one. But with the personnel of the

the least be a doubtful experiment

party show indications of becoming

COULD NOT SAVE HIM.
Friends of Chicago Politician Tried
to Prevent Indictment.

CHICAGO, Oct. 5.-The grand jury to-
night voted two indictments against Rob
ert f. Burke, city oil inspector. The
charge is embezzlement of the funds of his
office, and in one instance a shortage of
$4,000 is alleged and in another 5000 is said
to be missing.
Several days ago representatives of the
Standard Oil Company told the grand jury
that they had paid as fees to Burke in
his capacity of city oil inspector certain
sums of money, which the grand jury
could not find in the inspectors accounts
with the city. The matter was taken up
il was found that there was IN one case a
shortage OF $4,000 between the amount paid
by the Standard Oil Company and that re-
ported in the receipts of the office by Burke.
The item of 5000 was found in the same
manner Burke is chairman of the Demo-
cratic county central committee, and is
one of the leading Democratic politicians in
Chicago. lie has held the office OF oil
inspector ever since Carter Harrison has
as the closest political friend of Mayor
Harrison. Strong efforts were made during
the day by Burke and his friends to prevent
his indictment. Burke, before the indict-
ments were returned. paid into the office of
the states attorney $4,000 to cover any
shortages that might be found in his ac-
counts, and late this evening prominent
Democratic politicians made strong efforts
to have the grand jury return no indict-
ments. because of the payments of money
made by Burke. Their efforts were in vain,
however, and the indictments were Ound.
Burke was not arrested tonight, but will
surrender on Monday.

COLUMBIA CLUB MEETING.
Senator Fairbanks and Others Talk
of Importance of Success.

Members of the Columbia Club gathered
IN the assembly hall of the clubhouse last
night to hear speeches bearing on the
close of the city campaign. The men that
gave the talks said there was no reason
for impassiOned addresses. because the au-
dience was composed of business men that
thoroughly understood the political situa-
ton and were loyal Republicans. Senator
Fairbanks made the prime point that the
best citizens were too apt to regard a NUM-
cipal election as Of little Importance, when,
III fact, it had a more direct and influential
effect on them han either the state or
national election. 1t was of great i'm
pOrtance, he said, to the State that this
city should be Republican. The Senator
added that he was delighted to meet the
newcomers TO the city, and he assured
them that they could not find a city OF
better promise than indianapolis. 1t was
due to them, he added, that the citizens
should give indianapolis an old-tashioned,
clean, economical administration.
Roscoe o.. Hawkins said that he had
found that the class of citizens that should
take most interest i'm the city election really
takes the least. He said they should be
willing TO make sacrifice and 10 get out and
work for a better administration of the
city's affairs. He pointed out that the
city charter gives the mayor more power
than any other officer for whom the public
votes. He is an autocrat. Mr.. Mcguire.
he said. had shown in the past that he
sought political office because of the salary
attached and he had no higher ideal than
this in seeking TO be mayor. He said that
the Republicans out in the State are Justi-
fed i'm saying that there must be something
wrong in indianapolis when it gives a
Republican majority in a county or state
election and turns its own affairs over TO
the Democrats.
