BUY SAWMILL
Secure Plant in Oregon to
Supply Lumber for the
Honolulu Trade.

w. c. Wilder and Gardner +. Wilder
returned yesterday from a business ana
pleasure trip lasting three months
spent in the mainland. During their
absence they perfected arrangements
for supplying lumber from the Oregon
forests for the lumber company to he
established in Honolulu by a local syn
dictate of which they are members. ".
c. Wilder said last evening that an OPP
ton had been secured on a mill at
Rainier, Oregon, which viii be the bGs-
is of the supplies to be forwarded here.
The establishment of the supply mill
also lays the foundation for the estab-
lishment of a line of schOOnar5 to OPP
crate between the Oregon coast and
Honolulu. Just when the new company

according to Mr.. Wilder, depending
largely on the shipment and arrival Of
the lumber. The following dispatch.

the securing Of the saw mill plant:

ment of Message OF President
for Consideration.

Go slow, is the motto which the Home
Rulers seem to have adopted and their
meeting last night was given over 20
oratory, which consumed more than
two hours of good time. 1t vas a tri-
umph for the conservatives over the
young and radical members. as the va
rious motions and resolutions which
came In for the purpose of setting in
motion the machinery to make the
executive committee of the party a
combination of Independents and labor
and other bodies. were sent over to a
special meeting, which was called for
Tuesday evening next.
The plan for the amalgamation of the
Home Rulers and laboring men. which
is the pet scheme of those members OF
the executive committee of the rsr-
ty who were members of the Mechan-
les Union of the old days, was sprung
in combination with the resolution left
over from the last meeting, providing
for the admission OF delegates from lo-
Dor unions. There was a great deal of
various views upon the subject, but in
the end there was nothing donA, as the
members seemed to want more time to
think over what would be the result of
such a combination.
After some discussion there was a
resolution introduced providing for a
cOnnnoitTaa fO draf raS0yufinls 06TracG-
ed to the President of the United
States commencing the portion Of his
message which refers to Hawaii This
brought out the takers again. The
references to labor were brought in,
and the speeches endorsed the tand of
President Roosevelt as to the plans for
the extension of the land system.
After a long discussion It was de-
cided that the matter should so over
until the next meeting. in common with
the labor matters. The decision was
reached that the party Should in the
future have a representative who was
to stand between the committee and
the public, and give out the proceedings
of the committee in so far as they ara
for the general knowledge. This also
went over. after some of the older mem
bers of the committee had a chance to
give their opinions of the press and the
reports published in the past.
The conservatives regarded the put
ting over of all these questions as q
victory for their side and the younger
element took it in the same way, for
they were out in force and stood ready
to carry through all the matters for
which they stood. The meet nS was
only fairly attended and the next meet
ing is expected to be a large one.
Among some OF the members # the
committee there was a report that in
structions had come from Wilcox to
have a thorough Endorsement or the
message sent on to him to increase his
standing at the White House.

WAYFARER'S NOTE BOOK
Thought Papa Spilled His Coffee

Children surrounded by the proper
home influence are impressed by what
is taught them, and punishment, If
properly administered to them. makes
a lasting impression upon their minds.
II is the custom of the wife of a we'll
known county official to punish her
little ones by sending them to bed for
spilling their coffee either upon the
tableclOth or their clothing.
The effect of this training was mani-
tested last Saturday night, or Sunday
morning, after the fire which destroyed
Warmers wharf.
The children's father is an enthusi-
astic member of the Wilmington Fire
Departm He had been to the fire
and got drenching. He wore a black
necktie, and the water caused the color
to run and stain his shirt bosom. He
hung his soiled clothing in the bath
room, and one of his little boys. seeing
the shirt the next morning, exclaimed: (:
"Oh! papa has spilled his toffee on
his shirt, and mamma has made him
do to bed"

EWSPAPER OPINION
a Between-Trains Var

From the New York World.
1t Is impossible not to smile at this
Colombian war which stops to let
trains past, yet it would be unjust to
deride it.
In fighting quality these Colombians
yield to no people Their opera bouffe
battles are bloodier than most historic
conflicts The opposing armies stand
up and shoot each other down at
close range, and when ammunition is
exhausted they draw their long, wick
ed knives and engage hand to hand.
And the causes for which they fight
are the Old fundamental causes of hui
man rights, interpreted in opposite
ways by the opposing sides-these
causes which, though they aim for
happiness and peace, can apparently be
decided In no other way by the hcman
animal, no matter how civilized he
may pretend to be, than by the whole
sal murder called war.
We laugh at these peoples because
they are at war all the time But why
is Il more ridiculous to be at war all
THE time than to be at war every twen-
" years or so?

about 1t. and all appeared unconcern-
ed. When the public expressed its
amazement. the commissioners
aroused themselves a moment, but IL
was only to express indignation at
those who dared to criticise. The law
required bonds. but they were willing,
and apparently anxious to serve with
out them.
Now the Citizens Committee has
gone into court and asked that the
commissioners be compelled to file
bonds. 1t would seem that they would
be anxious TO do this without compul-
sion. but. no; they apparently wished
to put themselves in an indefensib,e
attitude. and as opposing the plain re-
auirement OF the law. Now we shall
see whether in this instance they can
coolly take their ease and remain in
different when a legislative require
ment goes unheeded. 1t seems to be a
fashion to leave all duties undis-
charged till the courts direct their per-
formance. The courts are fast becom-
ing our governing bodies.

As to Brands of Civilization

From the Baltimore Herald
Tine people of this country have been
listening, so to speak, with some
amusement and with much patience, to
Minister Wu's public declarations with
reference to his people, and to mis- com
parsons of the manners and customs
Of his fellow Orientals and those of the
inhabitants of our Western land of
civilization-as we had previously un-
derstood the meaning of the word.
With a blandness and a courtesy
common to his people. Minister WI
has been pointing out some of the
shortcomings of our boasted civiliza-
ton and in a guileless manner has
prOpOunded some questions that have
served to call especial attention to
weaknesses Of certainWestern methods.
The representative OF the "Son of
Heaven" has even suggested that there
are certain customs observed by his
people and traits OF character that they
possess which we would do well to emu
late. He has limited that the Chinese
brand OF civilization is older than that

turtles. and that, even before the ad-
vent of the Aztecs and the mound
builders in America, China had given
to the world some OF its most useful
arts and invention. Heretofore. to b0r-
row a phrase from the sporting editor.
it has been Mr. Wu's inning.
Now. however. it would be interest
ing to subject him TO an informal
court of inquiry. and to gain from him
more detailed information concerning
the incidents which were the chief mat
ters Of interest throughout all China
on Monday.
On that day officers and citizens OF
the yellow Kingdom gathered in the
capitals and chief cities OF the vari-
Ious provinces to protect the sun from
lcapture by a great dragon. An eclipse
of the great luminary was visible in
China, and II was the common be
