ANGLICAN OR AMERICAN?

This question of prayers for the King
of Great Britain and Ireland in the
local Episcopal church is getting inter-
esting. The Bishop tells US that pray
ers are only offered in the cathedral for
his British Majesty on special occa-
sions; lady telephoned US yesterday
that the Second Congregation of ST
Andrews cathedral listens every Sun
day to prayers for the King; and here
comes Deacon Tesla, one of Bishop Will
lis stanchest supporters and his news
paper champion, and rebukes Rev
John osborne of ST. Clements because
he does NOT pray for Edward VII.
Just listen to this:
The fact of the Bishop of Honolulu
having offered a special prayer for King
Edward VII. at the memorial service for
the lamented Queen Victoria seems still
TO worry the dissenters, who, under the
banner of a Mr.. osborne refuse to prav
for King Edward in a building called the
st. Clements Chapel, and yet claims to
be Brftishers. By what authority does
this Mr.. osborne use the American Fpis-
copalian prayer book in a chapel which
he loudly claims to be a house of the
Anglican Church? The very respectable
shopkeepers who patronize Mr.. osborne
and their very good ladies who say their
prayers in the chapel, are undoubtedly
earnest and sincere Christians, but one
thing is sure and that Is that they do
not belong to a congregation connected
with the Anglican Church. They are
honorable men and women. but II IS
hardly for them to Judge Bishop who
holds his authority from the head of the
Church. OF course they are honorable
Christians because they say they are;
and yet they stab the church which they
claim to love. by breaking down the dis
cipline which Is as necessary in a church
as 1t Is in an army or a navy.
Can it be that one of the Bishops
grievances against st. Clements is
that it does not prefer the English to
the American prayer book? Or has the
good Deacon Tesla, in his sacerdotal
zeal, gone bit too far?
Upon one thing all are agreed, name
1y. that the Episcopal church in Hawaii
is not an American but an Anglican
body. Mr.. osborne, whatever form of
prayer he may adopt, accepts the An
gliean relation; the Bishop insists upon
1t, though willing to throw a sop now
and then to the Yankee Cerberus; and /,
Mr.. Macintosh, we presume is still as
Anglican as ever. Where is an Ameri- |
can Episcopal church? That is the |
American churchmen are ask |
ing, and they express the hope that |
the parent church will not conclude, in /
this American Territory, to leave their
desires unsatisfied.

1t would be quite in order for COM
mittee of tattooed persons who can
spare the time from hunting sharks and
wild goats, to assemble at the wharf
and meet Jared Smith, the man who is
coming from Washington to teach us
civilized ways. Feather top-knots,
spears, war drums. poisoned arrows
and stone axes should be left at home,
for if there is too great "a display of
savagery Jared may refuse to leave the

to give. down milk. The tribes ganer-
ally should keep away from the beach
for the same reasons, whatever their
curiosity may be to see JareG's live

When the Advertiser, under the ed
itorship of Mr.. Armstrong, warned the
people of this city of the certain con-
sequences of the stock excitement, there
were protests from every interested
quarter On the Rialto 1t was tndlg-
nantly pointed out that the condition
was healthy and that nothing but
fair winds and smooth sailing would
attend the little banks on the sea Of
speculation. Heavy wasted capitalists
argued that the Advertiser did not and
could not know what it was talking
about How did the thing come out?
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1901-03-29

Hon w. o. Smith denies that he said
to an Advertiser reporter that the
prices of Honolulu real estate are "ex-
cessive," but that he did say that lin
some cases they have been higher than
circumstances would warrant" This is
distinction with a small difference.
No use was made in the body of Mr..
Smiths interview of the word 'exces-
sive;' that was a part of the intro
ductory remark of the reporter derived
not only from what Mr.. Smith said for
publication but from what he asked us
not to publish. To clear the whole mat
ter up the Advertiser would be glad
to give Mr. Smith space to specify the
cases he had in mind where the prices
were too high. These might serve as
an excellent basis for figuring on the
general proposition laid down by Mr..
Lloyd and the Advertiser.

deepest Indignation on all sides. one
or two papers express a hope that Lord
Kitchener has been mislcd by false
l<atIir reports; but II is generally felt
that he would not have reported the
matter to the war Office without un-
doubted evidence.
The Dali Mail heads the report with
the word Murder and declaiiIa
against any further attempt to coax
the enemy into submission.
'DcWet has placed himself outside
the pale of humanity" says the Daily
Mail, 'and not proclarnations but large
re-enforcements must be our watch

The Morning Post says: This marks
the point where the guerilla phase ends
ana the bandit phase begins
All the papers appeal strongly to the
government to hurry forward reinforce
ments, since it is evident that the Bocr
leaders have now become desperate and
concilliation is quite useless.

Daily Mail announces the return to
Pretoria of Mr.. Pretorius, former
president Of the late South African re-
public. from futile endeavor to per-
suade the Boer leaders to surrender.
Details of the attacks upon kaalfon-

that there We're only small garrisons of
about 120 men, at each station. The
British had excellent trenches which
enabled them to withstand the attacks
until the Beers, having ascertained
that reinforcements were coming to the
g8rrisons, retired.
AT Zururfontein a party of Boers in
Khaki succeeded in capturing a Brit
ish patrol of eight men. who they
subsequently liberated. The railway

note Of the powers has finally been
signed by the Chinese peace commits
sioners. Prince Ching signed, yester-
day, and Ii Hung Chang, who is bet
ter. signed it. today.
1t is understood that the malady
from which Ii Hung Chang is suffer-
ing is Brights disease. He was feeling
worse, yesterday, and therefore post
pOred the affiXing of his signature but
Prince Ching was hopeful that he
would be able to sign, today, which
proved to be the case.
Prince Ching has protested to the
court against the appointment, said to
be contemplated, of Viceroy Chang
Chi Tung as 4 plenipotentiary in the
place of Ii Hung Chang. He thinks
the latter's advice absolutely essential
although he believes it might be ad-
disable to appoint a third plenipoten-
tiary for China and reiterates his desire
for the appointment of Sheng. who
would be acceptable to the foreigners
So far as Chang Chi Tung is con-
cerned the foreign envoys who know
his personally, say that while he is
strongly foreign and has never
made any secret Of his likes and dis
likes. they believe he would be satis-
factory representative of the Chinese
and there would not be any objections
to him on the score of his utterances.
Indeed. some Of the ministers think it
would be wise for China to make
Chang Chi Tung a plenipotentiary.
Most of the envoys have received
word from their governments that the
negotiations must be conducted in

reasons other places suggested would
