ORDER AT THE PICNIC.
The Preparation That Was Made for
 Keeping It.

 Louisville Courier Journal:
 Did you see the negro order of United Brotherhood of Friendship march today 800 strong. in full regi- mentals to Greenwood park?" said the man on the corner.
 What of it?" asked the man against the telegraph pole.
 "fn the first place, the members of this order claim that the order origin ated in slavery times. but was kept secret from their masters, and. as one of them told me. we held to the order and have developed and handed it down to this time The order repre- sents as a whole the best of our negro citizens But this is not what I want ed to tell you.
 "The marching of this order to Greenwood park and the extraordinary police precautions made by the order itself to preserve order reminds me of an occurrence in connection with a negro picnic which happened in Texas while was living there. The better class of negroes of the county gave a great picnic. The Sheriff hearing of it went to the head men and warned them that there must me no disorder. "T am going to be there with my deputies. and if there is any cutting or shooting you will know that some thing has happened
 I hope you will bring yourself and lots of other good white men, because we mean to have order and l want to show you something Mir. Sherff, what we bought to keep order. and this has been preached around among all col- ored people,
 The sheriff was taken to a locked box.
 "It was opened and there lay as fine a coil of hangman's rope as ever eol- Jared . neck.
 |" What do you meanT asked the sheriff.
 Simply this. Mir. Sheriff. You white folks has been talking awful about us colored peoples picnics. cutting and shootings. Now those as Is going to manage this picnic. met and decided that we would stop the whole business ourselves. And I tell you that If there's any pistol shooting or raxor cutting, we will attend to the business ourselves and you won't have to arrest anybody. The rope will be handy
 Do you mean t?'
 "'Mean n? Just as sure as frost kills green stuff.'
 What are you going Go do"
 |" Why, sir, this box of rope will be in the first wagon. We will let all the negroes see it. We don't expect to use 1t, but, Mir. Sheriff. you needn't bother about any shooting or cutting man. We will keep order.

WOMAM'S GA646xx0.
 At the Worlds Fair to be held fn' St. Louis in 1903 the women of Amer ica will take a much more prominent part than that taken by them at the present exposition at Hunalo. Accord ing to a writer in The St. Louis Re- public her work will be judged beside that of man. He says:
 Mot only are the St. Louis clubwo- meu--and there are hundreds Of them among the best representatives Of the social and intellectual life of the city, deeply interested and actively at work bat that great Organization. the Gen. efad Federation of sWomen's Clubs, with its membership of 25oeo0, and Daughters of the American Revoiu- tion, with q membership of ss,OAO. and other national and independent organ izations of women. are engaged in a conceIted movement to place the Amer lean women in the front rank with the American man at the Worlds Fair. ,s .'t
 "on October Is next the Louisiana Purchase Committee, composed of del- egates from each of the Purchase States. will meet in St, Louis with rep resentatives of the officers and dtrsc- tors of the General Federation. when it Is expected that the memorial to be erected will be formally decided upon. sThere will undoubtedly be 'Wo- mans Building at the St. Louis Worlds Fair. but there will be no counterpart of the 'Women's Exhibit as 1t was known at Chicago and other places. The ladies contend that. ir- stead of reflecting credit upon them, 'women's exhibits do exactly the re- verse. They argue that the best Of woman's work in art. literature and mechanics is invariably displayed in conjunction with a similar class ot work by men, and only the inferior work of women Is displayed in the wo- mans exhibit. They contend that 1t is only right and just that women's work should in all cases be displayed with that of men. and allowed to stand or fall as it is superior to. equal to or tn- ferior to that of men.
 "swhy,' they ask. should the work of women be divided into two classes the better class to be merged with the exhibit of mans skill and the worse tO be collected and exhibited separately under the label "woman's work?" It is by the lower standard. thus set. that woman's ability is esti- mated. The poor work that she does is considered the best that she fas done. We insist on having the same opportunities to exhibit our work as men have. and that our work be judged by the same standards and under the same conditions

MILITARY
IS VICTOR
Money Provided
For Needs of
Soldiers.

There was as hot a fight over the
military, the final item of the current
expense Appropriation BILL in the Con-
ference Committee yesterday noon, as
has been seen during the entire session.
Though bloodless, there were hard
words and sharp retorts and not until
Monsarrat had withdrawn unparliamen-
tary language did the heat caused by
one of his heaviest shots give way to
cooler temperature. AS it was, the
vote of eight to six, the recruit being
the Kauai Senator, Nakapaahu. Though
the items as passed by the Senate were
reduced in every instance the result was
a victory for the men behind the guns.
1t was during the discussion of the
item for company allowances that the
warm language was used. Beckley had
said that during the years he was
member of the military the allowance
had been spent for beer and the men
in the company did not even furnish
him with soda water, and Emmeluth
had moved to strike out, which brought
up Monsarrat.
Every drill night there is an orgy
at the drill She'd began the member
of the Lower House. Until midnight
and often long after there is shouting
and loud noises 1t is a disgrace to the
people of the Territory that such things
are permitted. 1t is terrible that such
drunkenness is carried on. I live near
by and hear all that is going on when
the soldiers are carousing as well as
what takes place next door. / cannot
see how any one can countenance it
and no man will vote to continue such
conditions"
81 will vote for the item and | am as
good a man as you," shouted Gilfillan,
as he jumped to his feet, glazing at
Monsarrat. A few moments later
Chairman Baldwin called to the mem
ber's attention that he had used I'M
parliamentary language, and he with
drew it, but he said that he would not
withdraw his remarks about the drunk
enness. 9
There were few members of the en-
tire committee who wanted the items
left as they had been inserted. The cut
ting began with the first item and went
on down the lire.--Those which placed
the stationery andsSprinting at $3.50,
travelling at $500 and Uniforms at $1,000
were rushed through without much de-
bate, the only features being the con-
slant proving by Emmeluth to strike
out. this brought the consideration
down to the company allowances, and
there the battle royal began.
After Monsarrat had had his fling and
others had said some things which were
almost as hot, c. Brown took the floor
and urged the passage of some appro-
priations which would keep intact the
military arm of the Government. He
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1901-07-13

said that with the influx of the Porto
Ricans, the presence of so many Japan
csc and Chinese in the Territory, there
was need of a strong arm to insure
quiet and peace. Now that the Islands
of the group were connected by tele-
graph and there were steamers always
at hand, it would be impossible for any
outbreak on a plantation to occur and
go on for more than thirty-six hours
without the sending from this city Of
men armed and equipped men who
would have to go when called. This was
the reason, he said, why he would vote
for the military items of the bill, for
he believed that there was nothing
which demanded so much attention as
the peace and security of the people
and the enterprises of the Territory.
Beckley wanted to cut down the al
lowance to S25 month for each COM
pany, which would make the total for
the period IS, 100, but later the amend
ment which placed it at $11, 500 was
agreed to. The final item was that for
ordnance supplies, which was passed at
$500.
With this the consideration of the bill
was complete and the. committee ad-
journed after passing the entire bill.
The Enrolment Committee will see that
the measure is in the shape in which it
was passed by item and then the COM
mittee will meet again, at the call OF
the Chair, for the purpose of preparing
the report and sending it to the two
Houses. This will be done. it is expect
ed, today so that the consideration OF
the measure will be taken up either
this afternoon or Monday.

SUBSIDY
VOTED IN
Conferees Agree
to Pay Railroad
Debt.

After one of the strongest fights of
the whole session, one which was pro-
ductive of some warm talk on both
sides, the subsidy of the Oahu railroad
was put into the Appropriation bill yes
terday morning by the Conference
Committee. There was one unusual
feature, but one which gave the COM
mittee an idea of the Importance of ac-
ton upon the item, the appearance OF
a non-member, this time B. F. Dilling-
ham, who explained the position of the
railroad company and stood a fire OF
questions. Chairman Baldwin, when
the meeting opened, said that Mr.. Dill
bingham was present ready to present
his side of the case, and asked vote
upon whether or not, hearing be
granted. This was agreed to and Mr..
DILLINGHAM; for a half-hour talked and
answered queries.
Beginning with a history OF his con-
nection with the various enterprises III
the city and Islands, Mr.. Dillingham;
told how he began the promotion of the
railroad. He said that he was urged
to action in this matter largely py Tue
prospects for the opening up OF Inc
country, and that when 1t came TO tne
securing of the subsidy he was aldeu
largely by the Hawaiians, to whom the
prospect of being brought nearer 10
the civ was attractive. The history OF
the construction of the road, the dliii-
culties met and surmounted, and hnaiiy
the success of the enterprise was gone
over. as well as the starting OF the va
rious plantation enterprises.
! After concluding this portion OF the
argument Mr.. Dillingham; said that ne
was not arguing solely for-sel and as
! sodiates.- He was asking for Justlce'
There was. he said, plain contract pc
tween the people, as represented py tne
Legislature, and the railroad, expressed
( in the form of the act which granted
the rights to the road, and he consider
! ed that the contract was binding. Inc
railroad had kept it's part of the con-
| tract and now it would be an act OF III
| justice for the Legislature to refuse to
carry out the second part of the agree
ment. The refusal he insisted would pe
! simply an-~act of reputation and TINS
the TerritorS coufa>not do now Sucn
an act would stamp The Territory as
unworthy of sredit and woufd~be disas-
trous.
When Mr.. billingham had concluded
Senator C. Brown moved the passage o.
the item and argued that there wouio
be far-reaching effects of the repudla-
ton OF this proper debt. He then saio
that during the morning he had peer
approached by the head of one OF the
largest banking institutions in the CITY
and had been told that If the Legisia-
ture would repudiate such contract a.
