A Mckinley Lighthouse.

A committee en- Maui have been APP
pointed to collect money for the Mckin-
ley memorial fund. and few will refuse
to contribute something, but the fact that
no definite plan for memorial has been
adopted will have a deterrent effect. Nat
urally. the people and the papers of Ho-
nolulu desire to see their town embel-
lished with parks, pleasure grounds and
public buildings, but the proposition to
take advantage of the death of President
Mckinley to levy on all the Islands for
that purpose smacks a little of selfish
thrift However, if the idea is to be
practical let 1t be so, but instead OF
a playground in Honolulu, let the funds
be devoted to the construction of a light
house for Kahului harbor, which would
forever stand as "A beacon and a memor.
rial of the most practical and useful ma
ture possible.-Maui News.

YOUR UNRELIABLE JAP.

People who wonder why they always
have to lose their Japanese servants
after given time, no matter how well
the menials have been treated nor how
much they seem to like the place. will
attend upon the following explanation
given the Advertiser by a Japanese
merchant.
Most of these Japanese belong to
companies like the Chinese tongs, which
have brought them here and advanced
them money at interest. 1t is neceS-
sary, II the money Is to be repaid, to
keep the coolies employed, but there are
not always enough jobs to so around.
SO the company to which any given
Jap belongs, compels him after he has
had a good place for so many weeks
or months to leave it and give some
unemployed coolie a chance. That is
why your Japanese cook, when IN sud
denly leaves you, returns with another
boy whom he recommends as his
successor
Thus 1t is that a very simple explana-
tion clears up dark and sometimes
dismal mystery.

Waianae Sugar Company, the present

NO EXCUSE FOR EXTRA SESSION.

The argument in favor of an extra
session of the Legislature derives no
strength from the plea that the law
making body, at Its regular session,
neglected to make certain useful APP
propriatlons The theory of the law Is
that. in leaving out a given appropria-
ton. the Legislature acted with de-
liberation and made good its policy
and that It's will must be respected
On this account in the practice of the
States and the Federal government
the omission from the session laws OF
any item. however important 1t may
seem to the public or to any given de-
partment of the administration is not
held to be an error requiring a demand
Of the executive upon the Legislature
for reconsideration. When Congress
failed to pass the Army bill there was
no extra session, nor was there when
the River and Harbor bill was skipped
Sometimes when an opposition Congress
has left vital legislation at loose ends
and a Congress of the same politics
with the Executive has been elected to
take its place, the latter, as soon as the
law will permit, has been called to-
gether; but such occasions are rare and
do not, under present circumstances
apply to Hawaii.
In other words our Home Rule Legls-
lature has made it's bed and must lie
in 1t. 1t cannot plead that 1t knew nc
need of revenue at Its regular session
! or that It had no opportunity to pass
the needful bills. The Governor repeat.

tillery Go. of Massachusetts is the
oldest military organization on the
American continent having re-
ceived it's charter in 1888. 1t was
founded by Robt. Keane, a member
of the HONORABLE Artillery Go. Of
London who came to this country
in 1886 and resided in Boston.
Several others OF the early mem
bers had been members of the
HONORABLE Artillery Go. of Lon
don and it is recorded that many of
them were "fathers in the church
equally qualified to adorn it by
their exemplary virtue and to de
fend it by their valor''. The
charter was granted by Gov. Win
throp, and the company fired the
customary volley over his grave.
Year after year during the CO.
lonial existence of Massachusetts,
the company annually elected its
officers, listened to a sermon, en-
joyed a good dinner and discharged
the military duties prescribed by
its charter. The most conspicuous
military men Of the colony were
on it's roll and it was molly repre-
sented in the successive French
and Indian wars. During the
Revolutionary War no regular
meetings were held, many of the
members taking conspicuous
part in the hostilities, among
whom may be mentioned Maj.
Gen'l. Benz. Lincoln who was COM
missioned by Gen'l. Washington
to receive the sword of CORVALLIS
at Yorktown, Maj. Gen'l. Brooks,
Gen'l. Hull and others of distinct.
ion. Among its later members
may be mentioned Col. Caleb
Gushing, Col. Josiah Quincy,
Gen'l. Nathaniel P. Banks and
Col. Marshall ?. Wilder.
AT the present time there are
about 700 active members COM
posed of Artillery and Infantry.
There are but two honorary
members, Edward VII and the
Honorable John D. Long, Secretary
of the Navy. The late Pres. Ches-
ter A. Arthur was also an honor
airy member of the company.
The two principal parades of
The year are upon its anniversary
on the first Monday of June and
the Fall Field Day held on the
first Monday in October. The
first parade is called "Artillery

are exceedingly interesting. The

House where it receives the Gov
ernor, the Preacher and other in
vited guests and escorts them to
the church where the annual SER
mon is preached. After the ser
vices His Excellency and invited
guests are escorted to Faneuil Hall
where a banquet is served. When
the literary entertainment is con-
cluded the company reform and
march to the Common where they
ballot for the officers for the ensu-

on the drum head and when de-
clared the drummer beats the roll

He then returns and retires to

the other officers are commission

They then march 10 their Armory
where they are dismissed for the
day. 1t has always been consid-
cred an honor to preach the an

divines of New England, from the
days of Cotton Mather, to the pres
ent time, have performed that SER
vice for the company. The writer
had the honor to command the
company in 1901 when the SER
