The Dupuyer acantha. [volume] (Dupuyer, Mont.) 1894-1904, 1901-05-02


It is singular, but true, that the in
dustrial school system of the United
States owes its origin, in large part,
to Hawaii. General Armstrong, the
founder of Hampton Institute, was
The son of that Hawaiian educator
who organized the schools Of the Ha-
waiian Islands. Hampton this winter
contains eight grandchildren of former
Indian students. Honolulu, in the
course of but a single generation,
shows a still more notable instance of
rapid aboriginal development. A former
queen Of Hawaii, awakened to a sense
of 4 finer civilization, came with
great pomp and retinue to express her
wish for reform. Unwrapping from
her body the seventy-ive yards OF
~broadcloth which had composed her
royal robe, she burned it in the public
square. Her niece, Lady Bishop, later
beuueathed her entire property of over
"a million dollars to the cause Of edu-
cation in Hawaii. Today the com
tpulsory school system of those islands
is so admirable that Australia lately
sent there for a teacher to expound IL
the southern continent the Hawaiian
american system of education.

It is pleasant to record the fact that
the consular service is gradually work
ing out of politics, that more and more
fitness is considered in the original
choice of consuls, that efficient men
are promoted from less important to
more important stations, and that the
effects of the improved system in adj
vancing American trade are SO marked
that the new way is approved by all
who study the subject. The cleverness
of some consuls in getting at the facts

MOE DISCRIMINATION.

The Owensboro Messenger quotes
from card Of President Milton II.
Smith Of the L. and n. as follows;
1.-THE act to regulate commerce was
mainly intended to prohibit unjust
observation-disclosures taking Of lower
rates for the transportation Of persons
and,property. under similar circum-
stances and conditions, for one person
or some persons than for all persons.
The penalties are severe-fne and i'm
prisonment. II created a commission
which may. upon its own motion,
prosecute violators at the expense OF
the government. Individuals may al
so do so. 1t is just law, and SHOULD
be enforced. There eau be no differ
ence between railroads deliberately
violating the interstate commerce law
and the union miners violating the
laws against intimidation, unlawful
assemblies. etc. and all yiolators OF
both sorts should be promptly pun
ished., and their repetition thereby
prevented"
The Messenger then adds; The
state laws against discrimination are
in effect the same as thu laws govern
ing interstate commerce. The L. and
N. railroad charges an Owensboro
shipper 2s cents hundred for carry
ing a certain class Of freight to Hop
kinsville, where il only charges a
Louisville shipper 10 cents hundred
on the same class OF freight to the
same point. The Hopkinsville buyer
pays the freight in each instance, but
the Owensboro shipper is precluded by
the excessive freight rate from selling
in Hopkinsville. Owensboro is near
err to Hopkinsville than Louisville IS.
1t doesn't require a very exalted de-
gree Of intelligence to understand that
there is no unlawful discrimination
in charging 2s cents q hundred for
carrying freight from owensboro to
Hopkinsville, and 10 cents from Louis
Vile to Hopsi-s lille. II the road car
ried freight for one man or firm from
Greensboro to Hopkinsville for 2s
cents, and wanted to charge another
man so cents for carrying the same
amount Of freight from owensboro to
Hopkinssille, thta would be the kind
of discrimination prohibited by law.
Bat so long as everybody is charged
2s cents from Greensboro to Hopkins
willie, and everybody is charged 10
cents from Louisville to Hopkinsville,
no law is violated, anil the Messenger
has failed to carry Its point.

restricted A desire TO atty the mil

her twice before going out.
He came home early that evening
and his mother was just about to leave
as he entered. She paused only long
enough to say: "I'll be over tomorrow
evening. Mr.. and Mrs. Delaney are
coming with the hope of beating you
and Addy a few games of cards. I'll

THAT will be just the thing" said
Ned. I'll show Tom Delaney whether
he can beat us at cards or not. Do
come, mother. Wait a minute and
Addy and l will walk home with you.
Won't we, dear?' But his wife was al
ready throwing on her cape.
Next night Mr.. and Mrs. Delaney
came and Ned and Adelaide were
beaten, but Mrs. Chatterton made the
Welsh rarebit-she had never made a
better one-and there were jokes and
stories and bright conversation all
through the short evening.
Delaney proposed that the three
Chattertons come over to his house the
next evening and get their revenge, and
they went. There were more jokes and
bright talk, and, best of all, this time
Ned won.
"How pleasant these evenings are"

arm and his mother on the other he
wended his homeward way, land how

"And there is to be no demur, little
mother" added Ned, sweeping her on
past the gate. She coculd not but con-

stayed late she would cry to herself,
but she always tried to welcome his
return with an unclouded face. She
believed that it was only thoughtless-
ness and that after awhile, when he
came to realize how very lonely she
became, he would not stay away from
her so long.
Once, when she was very lonesome,
Mrs. Chatterton came in and sat with
her. They talked together and busted
themselves with some needlework, and
the hours did not seem so long. And
when Ned came that night they walked
home with his mother and all were
light-hearted and happy.
But other evenings passed when no.
body came in, or when her mother or
Nell dropped in to find her alone and
limited that Ned was neglecting her.
They would look at her strangely, as
if they pitied her and wondered if she
were happy. Somehow this panied
her Ned was good. She loved him
and knew that he loved her; he was
only thoughtless. She said this over
and over to herself, and she could not
bear to see in the eyes of her relatives
