TO REMOVE THE BAN.

ROME, Dec 22.-The Sun correspond
negotiations are proceeding between the
Vatican and the Italian royal family
for the removal of the ban of excommu-
nication placed upon the Quirinal pal
ace by Pop Plus TX. and renewed by
Leo XIII. because the Quirinal was sto-
len from the Holy See. The present
Pope. it is understood is willing to re-
move the ban on condition that the
Quirinal shall not be the living place
of any Italian Prince. This condition is
easy, because as a matter of fact no
King or Queen of Italy has lived in the
Quirinal for long time, but in wing
Or annex which never formed part of
the Quirinal and consequently was not
placed under the ban with the main
builtistg. The latter has practically
beef tosed except on occasions of Off
cial rGceptionS. Moreover the young
King contemplates building an entirely
new palace in the Ludovici quarter OF
the city Then the Quirinal will be
completely abandoned and it will not
be surprising if it is handed back to the
J Holy See.
| The widowed Queen Margherita will
after all live in Rome, having decided
upon a life of active benevolence as
more acceptable as a form of penance
and mourning than a conVentual life.
She has bought the magnificent Piom-
bino palace with the adjacent villa and
three pavilions. She hopes to make the
palace a yeritable center of artistic and
? literary life and to make Rome the
home of another renaissance. 1t is pref
.ty well known that Queen Margherita
is a woman of the finest culture and is
ps.ssionately devoted to literature, mu-
sic and the fine arts. She has written
poetry. has composed a good deal of
music and has a collection ofrpaintings
from her own brush. Her present am
Z. bftion is to devote her time and money
ito the Intellectual culture and the ar
tistic development of her own country
She has announced that she will de-
vote half her fortune to this work, the
other half being set aside for charity
She received under King Humbert's
will about 100000 and the State makes
her Queen Dowager's allowance OF
100000 year. She has already specif-
ically set apart $4,000 a year to assist
and reward young workers in litera-
ture and science and art. Recently she
personally consulted with a number OF
representative Italians Including such
/ composers as Mascagni, Puccini, Con-
cavallo, Giordano and BoitA: with the
poets Canducci, d'Annunzio, Pascoli the
| novelists Verga and Fogazzaro. and the
artists Morelli, Monteverde an& Kline

1t is now understood in San Fran
cisco that professional lobbyist with
n record is coming to Hawaii next
month to try and persuade the Legis-
lature that the Book Trust ought to
get another five years contract to sup
ply all books needed by the schools Of
these Islands. The local public may
be sure that when he appears the Adj
vertiser will introduce him in a few
reminiscent words and give ample rea-
sons why his raid on the Treasury
should be defeated. No trusts need
apply in Hawaii, least of all one so
openly felonious as that represented by
the book combine.

The public gave the Holiday Adver-
tiser an ovation, one to which the sale
edition was unequal. Despite the thou
sands of papers printed, ythe visible
supply was taken up early in the fore
noon and orders were booked for all
that the presses could turn off during
the day. 10 paper ever before sold SO

the publishers of next years holiday

AS a corrective for the false IDEAS
about the treatment given laborers in
the cane fields of Hawaii, ideas chiefly
circulated by the Examiner, we COM
mend the interview with Dr. Egisto
Rossi, published in this impression
DR.. Rossi is not a Hawaiian, nor a
planter, nor stipendiary of planters,
but commissioner of immigration
from Italy whose business 1t is to ad-
wise the Italian government whether
the life of plantation laborer here
would be suitable for Italian subjects.
He tells the Advertiser that the stories
of cruel treatment of field hands here
are false; that the laborers are well and
even indulgently treated: that the food
required by his countrymen is abundant
and cheap; that the plantation hands

not the Territorial Government or the
Superintendent of Public instruction or
anybody else usually consulted in such
matters, but the nondescript party to
which he belongs. Evidently Mr. Will
cox thinks that the appointment is a
part of the spoils for which his polit-
cal following was organized. If so, it
is we'll to say at this time that the
candidates examined here for West
Point and Annapolis will have to I'M
dergo a second examination at those
academies at the hands of men who
will not be affected by Independent
party politics: and that a youth with
no other recommendation than his abil-
ity to suit the Wilcox people will be
obliged to make his way back to Ha-
wall as best he can. The only proper
way to start examinations Is to appoint
a board of three school teachers and
let them pick out the boys who pass the
strfctest test of scholarship. An ex-
aiming board with r. n. Boyd and
Dr. Russell In the majority would be
farcical.

The electric lighting company is a
hapless failure. and unless it sees fit

Perhaps the coming trolley line may be
able to distribute light and power as
well as to give rapid transit, though at
this writing we have no special data on
that point. At any rate relief is de-
manded from that source or some
