HILO REPUBLICANS.
LHilo HerAld.l


The rules Of the Republican Central
Committee provide that members Of
the Executive Committee shall be elect
ed by district committees. AS there
is some difference of opinion as to
who shall represent Hilo in the Execu-
tive Committee it is proposed to hold
a meeting of the precinct club Of the
party in Hiio in order that the opin-
ions of members may be heard and
their wishes ascertained. The Her.
aid does not see any necessity for the
Hilo Republicans to deviate from the
rules laid down; 1t is distinctly within
the powers of the four members of the
district committee to select a man to
represent them at the meetings of the
Executive Committee and II their Sc
lection is not a good one 1t may be
rectihed in the first convention and
that will be ample tim . set the
wheels going for the next campaign.

LIBEL ON THE PORTUGUESE

Editor Sunday Bulletin:
would like to, in behalf of my fe!'
low countrymen, call the attention II
Mr.. Soares to the erroneous state
ments made by him and published In
the Advertiser a day or TWO ago. His
whole report is a mass of libelous un
truths and shows that Mr.. Soares did
not take time to prepare statement
which would be credit to himself ard
to his nationality.
To go before distinguished lot OF
gentlemen, such as were assembled al
that particular meeting, and publicly
demoralize and injure the reputation
OF his nationality, more especially the
Portuguese colony OF Honolulu is, ia
say the least, an insult not to be
tolerated.
II Mr.. Soares had seriously consider
ed his position among a people whom
he has tried to, but in vain, convert, he
would not even have appeared at that
conference. He would have by his
silence befriended and gained the re
spect of his many opponents in spite
OF themselves.
II Mr.. Soares were asked to prove
the statement that '95 per cent OF the
Portuguese are addicted to stronf
drink wonder If he could do so.
1t is true, however, that the Portu
guese as a race are in the habit OF
using liquor, but they were never con
sidered as inebriates. Search the rec
ords of our courts and they win speak
for themselves. Another ! wonder
how often has the most Rev. gentle
man seen little children OF six years
of age intoxicated? And how often Is
that alleged intoXication caused by
the administration of strong drink by
the childrens own parents? We are
humble enough to submit to his exah
ed learning, and wish TO be enlight
ened.
The writer of this commentary dis
favors any sort of drink, but he is moi
a fanatic. He believes that there are
cases when 1t is necessary to take {
cooling drink of some stimulant. 1

PeriIous Work Of WaII.cIimbers.

The able seaman as he nimbly
climbs the trembling rope ladder to the
top of the mainmast is an object OF
awe and admiration to the landlubber;
and the "steeple-jack," who, at a dizzy
height, calmly repairs a church spire,
with never thought of the danger his
hazardous feat entails, is the subject
of much wondering comment from
frightened spectators hundreds Of
feet below. Yet within recent years
new industry has developed which pos
sesses most of the elements of danger
contained in the life of 49, sailor and
the steeple climber, but which seldom
receives more than passing notice.
This is the renovation of the fronts OF
"sky-scrapers." Almost any day an
observant person may see standing
against some of the high buildings
which adorn the center of the city an
extension ladder reaching from the
pavement to, say, lLe second story.
On looking further. one may notd
smaller ladders of a similar pattern
(wide at the base and narrowing to.
wards the top) propped at intervals
along the wall TO the very roof Of the
structure. Several workmen may be
seen mounting these insecure ascents
with the agility of monkeys, until,
reaching the section of the building
that requires their attention, they pro.
coed with the principal portion OF
their UNDERSTANDING and cleaning
the weather.beaten surface of the
rough stone wall. Frequently these
men stand upon a narrow window
ledge while they FURNISH the soiled
plate-glass panes, with absolutely no
means of saving themselves should
they lose their equilibrium. A false
step and there would be work for the
surgeon, II not for the undertaken.
Should the ladder slip, there is moth.
ing to prevent the precipitate descent
OF the workman to the hard pavement.
and broken bones would be the small
est result Of such an accident. Yet
these men continue their perilous avo.
cation in the mos, matter-of-fact way
Imaginable, and regard their danger
no more than do the numerous clerks

REPUBLICAN INACTIVITY.

Editor Sunday Bulletin: For the
past two days various newspapers OF
the city have sent forth statements to
the effect that the Republican party
does not intend to place a candidate in
the field for the special election to elect
man to take the place, In the House
of Representatives. of Archibald Gil
fillan, deceased. This matter has gone
beyond the stage of rumoT, certain
members of the Republican central
committee having expressed the same
sentiment in so many words.
The contention is that there Is nc
use putting a man in the field because
If elected, he would never take a seat
in the Legislature of the Territory,
the Governor having refused to call q
special session.
What absolute rot. what silly rea-
soning. What a death dealing policy
to the Republican party. 1t presup.
poses that Governor Dole cannot die
and that there is no possibility Of his
resignation or a request from Washing
ton for such resignation. There is GER
tainly no possibility of Mr.. Dole re-
signing of his own free will but there
is always a possibility of a man in his
position being asked to resign.
Suppose for the sake of argument
either one of these things should hap
pen. In such case, where would the
Republican party be? II would be the
butt Of every voter of the Territory
and would do more toward alternating
support for the party than almost any
thing that could be imagined.
The do nothing policy is always ;
dangerous one, be 1t in politics or any
other walk of life. Inactivity breeds
sluggishness and sluggishness mean!

ent disposition of the Republican party
is carried to fruition, then look out FOL
storms ahead. The word storms
is hardly strong enough. Rather viii

OAHU COLLEGE AFFAIRS.

The resignation of President Max
son Smith of Oahu College. is the cul
mination of a contest that has been
going on among the trustees of the in.
stitution for the last six months, II
not for full year One section of the
board, headed by l.. A. Thurston, has
been camping on Smiths trail and has
gone so far as to try to get a vote
through the board to demand his resig-
nation. This scheme has been as
steadfastly opposed by another faction
headed by Judge Perry and Judge
Frear. The faction under the leader.
ship of Thurston maintained the right
to override the disciplinary measures
of the President. while the Perry. Frear
faction demanded mat the President
be let alone to conduct the institution
according to his own ideas of discip.
line.
The original trouble arose over the
alleged discourteous treatment of one
of the teachers, a friend or relative Of
Professor Alexander by President
Smith. The cry was taken up by the
scholars with the curious result that
the trustees, or a part of them, were
lined up with the pupils to discredit
the action of the head of the college.
This affair was made the subject of
an extended investigation and Presi.
dent Smith was proved to have acted
with due courtesy and propriety. He
was in fact upheld in every detail. He
had, however, incurred the enmity OF
the Thurston faction and was pursued
without ceasing. Prof. Jordan, OF
Stanford University, was here at the
time and the whole matter was laid
before him for an expression of opin.
ion. Jordan upheld Smith in every
detail
Mr.. Smith was ready to resign at
the time but. at the urgent solicitation
of his friends on the board of trustees,
he was prevailed upon to remain.
Various meetings of the board of trus.
tees were called and after the final
alignment it was found that the
Thurston faction was one shy of ma,
jority to secure a vote of want Of con,
fidence. Governor Dole was then out
of town. On his return, and previous
to his departure for a vacation on the
island of Hawaii. another meeting was
called and his vote made up the ma.
jority against Smith. At the request
of his friends on the board Smith stood
his ground, whereupOn the Thurston
faction called another meeting to de.
mand his resignation but Dole was
then out OF town. The meeting broke
up in a row.
The friction between the factions
has continued though It has been i'm
possible to convict" President smith
of any serious breach of management
other then his determination to be the
head of the institution which he was
called to preside over and direct. He
has however tired of the constant trou
BILE and decided to withdraw at the
end of the present school year.
With this action has come the resig
nation of Judges Frear and Perry as a
protest against the hIgh-handed and
as they deem 1t, improper manner in
which the majority Of the board have
conducted themselves toward the
President. II is thought that another
resignation will soon follow for the
same reason.
This leaves the insututbn in the
hands of Thurston, Castle, Alexander
Dole and their cohorts to conduct as
they please.
