Listen to This.

From the Hilo Tribune
The independence of the Federal
government in dealing with its own
property never fails to shock the Ter
ritorial officials and the people of Ho-
nolulu generally who look upon it
with mixed feelings of disapproval
and anxiety. The recent visit to Hilo
of the physician in charge of the Fed
eral quarantine at the capital seems
to be the direct result of the unwill-
ingness of Honolulu to have that city
the rendezvous of transports and the
location of the Marine Hospital. They
gave a gentle hint the United States
Government had better use Pearl Har-
Dor This would give Honolulu all
the commercial advantages. The
Government, however, has turned its
attention to Hilo, which offers excep-
tional natural facilities for the pur-
poses of a naval station at less cost
than would be requisite at fearl Har-
Dor, and it seems quite likely that the
outcome will be the centralizing of
the Federal naval and military equip
ments of the Half Way House" OF
the Pacific at this port

intendent of Public Works, has re-
fused to answer questions before the
grand jury upon the ground that in
formation came to him in his capacity
as public official. If there is anyone
duty more than another that a public
official owes to the people it is to ex-
pose all corruption and crime or all
attempts at crime. II was no surprise
to US when Cooper and Dole refused
to answer questions before the grand
jury. for these relics of the oligarchy
do not believe that they are in any
wise answerable to the people. Their
idea is that being office holders they
are above the people. But We expec

less. We believed him to be too good
an American and too good a loyal
citizen to try to evade his plain duties

Did the Echo Assist Him?
I'm the Sunday Volcano.

From the Sunday Volcano.
An esteemed evening contemporary
can see nothing wrong in Reporter
Stevens, who sought notoriety here by
an assault upon Editor Gill of The
Republican. which did not turn out
well for Stevens, leaving Honolulu
under an assumed name. Generally
when a man sneaks aboard a sailing
vessel to get away without anyone
knowing of it, something must be
wrong. OF course the mere matter
of owing a tailor and a few bar bills
did not worry man of Mr.. Stevens
stamp Among other little memen-
toes which the young man left with
admiring friends here was a fraudu-
lent draft which a Fort street busr-
ness man has had to pay since Ste
vens' departure. And to add insult to
injury. Stevens. after his departure,
had the colossal nerve to write to
his victim, acknowledging himself to
be blk, thief and an all-round
scoundrel OF course little matters
like these do not worry, seemingly,
our contemporary. which still con-
siders Stevens a martyr. In fact II
seems to have done all it could to
help the gentleman to escape. going
some length to make people think he
had gone to Hawaii when he ran away
from Honolulu.

THE PRESIDENTS JOURNEY.

The trip OF President Mckinley 10
the Pacific Coast and across the west
ern states Is the most notable journey
ever made 0y any occupant Of the
presidential chair. Other Presidents
have swung the circle during their
terms In Office, but what viii distin-
guish President McKinley's travels
from those Of most OF his predeces-
sOrs is the circumstance that he has
waited until no possible suspicion Of
campaigning for himself could attach
to his movements Mr.. Mckinley has
been reelected and a second time In
augurated. Into his intercourse with
his friends and fellow citizens around
the great circle Of the spring of 1901
no motive of political ambition, and
no thought of self-promotion can en-
ter.
In the choice Of the time for his
journey the President manifests the
dignity and instructive good taste
that have marked so many other de
tails of his public career. He is a
consummate politician, but his poll.
teal art is not of the ordinary kind
An ordinary politician in his place
would have swung around the circle
just one year ago.
The compensation for the postpone
ment will come in the genuine and
universally friendly interest with
which Americans of all parties con
template the Presidents progress tt
the Pacific and back He will visit il
his course not less than twenty-thret
or twenty-four States and Territories
and everywhere it will be his privilege
and satisfaction to note, without Z
disturbing thought of campaigning du
ties, the multifold evidences of the ma
tional prosperity which his first cleo
ton assured and his second election
safeguarded

A striking instance of the ignor-
anee of the officials of this Territory,
among whom are those who have re-
fused to answer questions before the
they had franked envelopes printed
here which in a number of instances
have been used for mailing personal
letters. Complaint was made to the
postoffice department some time ago
that the mails were being abused by
the use of franked envelopes by even
the most petty Office holder in this
Territory. Uncle Sam is pretty par
ticular about whom may use ranked
envelopes and the purposes for which
they may be used Officials in Ha-
wall holding a commission from the
President may use franked envelopes
when transmitting official communi-
cations to the government at Wash
ington but not otherwise. Notwith-
standing this fact, which every one
familiar with American institutions
is supposed TO know, some Territor-
ial officials had a lot of franked en-
velopes printed and they were being
used Unfortunately by every one,
down to the police on the various isl
ands. Now an order has come from
Washington to seize all such franked
letters and next will be punishment
for those attempting to use them.
This should point a moral for those
who still think themselves above the
laws of the United States.

1t is very humiliating for a great
and proud nation like the United
States to be forced to treat on terms OF
equality in a business way with the
Bulgarian brigands who kidnapped
Miss Stone. But it is a condition that
exists, and theorizing will not help it.
Miss Stone, a citizen of the United
States and entitled to protection. has
been abducted and her life is threat
ened. The condition Of her release is
that $4,000 be paid to the kidnap-
pers before a certain date. Ii this is
not done, the brigands say they will
kill her, and there is every reason to
believe they mean what they say.
Humanity urges that she be saved in
the only way possible, that is, by pay
inc the ransom. This done, and the
woman restored to safety, it will be
in order to demand ofthe governments
interested that they capture and pun
ish the transgressors and give guar
antics against similar deeds in the
future. 1t is true that this may not be
entirely effective, but it is the best
method Of dealing with the matter.
Nobody fears that President Roose-
velt's action will not be as vigorous as
the affair demands.

1t is a fact which it is well to make
a note OF at the present time that
every Judge of the supreme court OF
Vermont is a believer in the prohibi-
