WI SENDS FAREWELL GIFTS
Costly Fans, Curios and Mrs. Wu's
Slippers AS Souvenirs.

Washington, July 28.-The Chinese
minister, WI Ting Fang, is beginning
to pack his household goods prepara-
tory to yielding the legation to his sue
cessor, Sir Liang, who will arrive next
month in the suite of Prince Chen.
Minister Wu says that If he responded
to all the requests for souvenirs which
he is now receiving from admirers all
over the country he would not have
much to pack, and If Nine. Wu sent
as many slippers to museums and H.
braries as have been asked for she
would go back to China barefooted.
She, at the minister's request, brought
with her last year from China large
collection Of rare porcelains, tapes.
tries and old ivory, and these he has
presented to friends with true Oriental
generosity.
The old garments of Nine Wu have
been distributed as far as they would
go, and even some of her best finery
has been offered as a sacrifice to the
curio collector. The minister, also,
has distributed his headgear and silken
coats with great prodigality.
There is scarcely woman In Wash,
ington to whom he owed debts of hos.
pitality that has not received a costly
fan, an ivory curio or bolts of silk for
a gown. Minister WI has also sent
some rare gifts to the officials with
whom he came in contact and to other
friends in every part Of the country.

New York, July 2S.-At a meeting
of the Central Federated Union of New
York yesterday communication from
the Federated Trades Council of Mil
waukee, requesting cooperation for
Independent political action with a
view of coming together in a national
movement was read. The letter spoke
of the oppression of the labor people
by both political parties, and went on
to say that the only way to obtain
their rights was to enter the political
arena and name candidates for the
presidency and congress.
The communication was not warmly
received, but a committee was ap-
pointed to ascertain further facts
about the proposed new party.

in every section of the city. The Old
policy of doing little here and Il little

gave rise to constant criticism which
in many instances was more than JUS

for the macadam, a part finished and
residents along the remainder of the

THE SUNDAY BULLETIN.

The Sunday Bulletin is the fulfill
ment of plans which the Bulletin Pub
fishing Company has had in mind for
some months past, and serves to round
out the Bulletins reputation for giving
"all the news all the time and the
truth about IT,"
The Evening Bulletin has gained a
prestige and general circulation second
to no newspaper published in this Ter
ritory II is popular with the people
because it is honest in its discussion OF
public questions, active in its news
gathering and reliable in its state
ments.
A year ago a weekly edition of TWEEN
ty pages was started to supply the ISL
and and foreign demand for concise
and accurate digest of the news of the
capitol city and the islands at large.
The weekly was offered to the reading
public at a very reasonable figure and
has met with marked approval
throughout every district of the Ter
ritory. Its circulation already equals
that Of semi-weekly journals long
years in the field and II is steadily forg-
ing ahead as it testified by the regular
ity with which every island mail
brings the names of new subscribers.
The Sunday Bulletin is now put for
ward in field created by general de.
sire Of the people to keep pace with the
times and receive from the leading
newspaper of Honolulu the same ser.
vice as is given by the progressive
dailies Of the Mainland.

cessary to dwell at length upon the
aims of the Sunday Bulletin This

New Zealand's annual report OF

dicates a fair condition of prosperity
which is gratifying to the great mass
OF intelligent people, Cynics and pessi-
mists to the contrary Notwithstanding;
second, because our sympathies are
warmly enlisted in behalf of our cou-
sins on the other side of the globe who
are undergoing the same experiences
in building up a new commonwealth
that we ourselves have encountered;
and, finally, because the New Zealand
ers have been trying certain political,
economic, and social experiments
which have been discussed here. but
which we have so far not yentured to
put in practice. One OF the most i'm
portant of these innovations Is that in
the direction OF the public ownership 0!
public utilities" which is one of the
cornerstone propositions advocated
by Socialists.
The control by the State of the rail-
roads was assumed in New Zealand in
part from the beginning Of constfuc-
ton, and fully and finally eleven years
ago. During the past year the Govern
ment was enabled to reduce transpor-
tation charges, both for neights and
for passengers, to the extent of %
per cent. This reduction. so far from
causing a deficit, as was feared and
predicted by conservative fnanclcrs
has resulted in an increase of trafTir

Government, partly actual and partly
estimated on current business, amount
Ing to 10 per cent. Meanwhile the rail.
roads have ben constantly improved

the train service correspondingly bet,

report goes, the experiment of vestine

1t is sad commentary on the public
spirit of this Territory when the Board
of Education finds itself called upon to
discuss whether 1t will peremptorily
order IL year old children out of school
to provide room for children of more
tender years. A certain portion of the
community will no doubt take the OPP
portunity to heap imprecations upon
native Legislature" The progressive
citizens regard it in the proper light
as presenting one Of the necessities of
the hour to be dealt with, not by howl
ing over the past but by manfully fac
ing the present. II Is the threadbare
story of no money. Children are forced
to attend school in a miserable old
warehouse, for want of money. Now
come the children forced out of school
for want Of money to provide accom-
mOdations, A special session of the
Legislature will provide the funds, but
the Governor remains obdurate posi-
bly, because he wants to prove to citi-
zens of this Territory the advantages
OF the centralized form Of government
under which we are now existing.

fact that Land Commissioner Boyd's
trip to Washington is in all details

to wonder why it is our Chief EXecu-

Former Land Commissioner Brown
went to the national capital on identi.
Cally the same mission as Mr.. Boyd.
His acknowledged purpose was to OPP

change in our land laws and a refor-

to tell Federal authorities what they
were supposed not to know about Ha.
wall.
Browns trip. its objects and the
draft upon public funds for expenses
were so far contrary to the sentiments
OF the people that the Territorial Sem
ate refused to confirm his appointment
to Office and legislative disapproval
was expressed in no uncertain terms.
In the face Of this experience, tho
Governor sends Browns successor off
on identically the same mission and
under exactly the same conditions. II
anything, Boyd Is in a much less ia
vorable position than Brown. He goes
TO Washington under direction of the
Territorial executive to oppose the de-
clared policy of the administration as
expressed in President ROosevelt's mes.
sage. He has no other support than
the directions of the Territorial Gov
ernOr. He Is a lobbyist pure and sim
pie, between a legislative fire at home
and an administration fire in Wash

the continuance Of land law. at pres

small holdings in Territorial lands. He
is accomplishing no good for the Ter
ritory and the tax payers foot the bills
for the trip.
While the Governor of the Territory
or any of his appointees thus defy the
obvious mandate of the electorate, how
can political peace or support of the
local administration be expected?
