Much as The INDEPENDENT opposes
the idea Of the Government being
borrower OF money, it is sometimes
necessary to do so, in order that
certain public works might be be-
gun and carried on to completion,
or otherwise to begin new work of
benefit to the country at large.

1t is said that it is un.Amercan to
borrow money on the Governments
credit right and left, and that the
scheme is unhesrd of in the United
States OF America; and furthermore,
that no American community or
commonwealth would dare use the
public credit as means whereby
loans may be raised. But the princi-
pie involved is nevertheless good.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1902-02-13

The credit OF the cry is mainly
due to the Home Rulers and to
none else, for they have been ham.

tractors should be compelled to
employ only the bona Gde citizens

Aud yet, what the Legislature
failed to provide, it would be safe
enough, in our humble opinion, for
the Government to borrow and for
the incoming Legislature to- make
good to those who in coed faith
advanced their money to expedite
public works, and at the same time
provide enough work for the lab ur-
ing class to earn an honest liveli-
hood.

An accident to the gear OF the
Sonoma, in having the main steam
pipe cracked, caused her few
hours delay 10 arriving here yeater-

delay in getting away was caused by
the absence OF the water tender,
who failed to give her sufficient

We hear so much talk about 'prac.
teal education" these days that | am
inclined to inquire what a practical
education really is.
AS generally considered, II is an edu-
cation that gives a sufficient knowl-
edge Of reading, arithmetic, penman-
ship, history, geography, etc, to en-
able youth TO start, at once upon
leaving public school, into work that
will bring him an immediate financial
return.
But there is a great variety Of EN-.
ployment for young people, and II is
surprising to hear the definitions of
practical education as voiced by men
of different avocations. The bookmak.
er and accountant say penmanship and
rapid addition are the essentials. The
architect says drawing. The mechanic
says manual training. The depart.
ment store says gentlemanly conduct.
tact, and alertness. The physician
says psychology. The druggist says
chemistry and botany The artist says
sketching and color work. And the
literary man says composition.
But the teacher who would devote a
large proportion of his time to any one
OF the many lines of work, and. in a
short time, dovetail himself into the
position he has chosen.
With this last idea the practical"
agitator brings his argument TO a close
but is this all? DR.. McCaskey says
that Mary, Martha and Lazarus, OF
Bethany, must have been pleasant peo-
pie to live with. That is what a pTac.
teal education should be also. II
ought to teach how to make the most
OF life and how to enjoy life.

Changes In Football Rules

The new football rules FOR the season

II Is possible to get record Of the
changes made by the rules committee
at its summer session. The most i'm
portant alteration Is "A section provid-
ing for a change Of goals after each
touchdown. This change is for the
purpose of equalizing the chances of
the teams as far as wind and sun are
concerned. The change also provides
for shift OF goals after a goal from the

made for the sake OF clearness. and II

By those who live in Canton. the
Mckinley home, the late Presidents
wife is said to be in better health than
she has been for fifteen years. She
takes a stroll twice a day around the
porch which runs on two sides of the
house, and is a familiar figure to the
people of Canton. Every morning and
again In the afternoon she drives to
West Lawn Cemetery to the receiving
vault, where the remains of Mr.. Nc
Kinley still lie. Mrs. Mckinley
dresses in deep mourning and wears
a heavy black veil over her face when.
ever she goes out. She drives in a
large black carriage, drawn by two
dark horses, an equipage of dignity
and comfort but totally lacking in dis
play.
The casket of the late President Is
just inside the vault, in plain view OF
the public. 1t is always covered with
an American flag. and the flowers
which loving hands are ever bringing.
Mrs. Mckinley carries flowers to the
tomb every day, and has made a con-
tract with a prominent Canton florist
to care for them as long as they last.
II is estimated that the cost and care
OF he flowers averages Mrs. Mckinley
$1,000 a year.

better than she was during the Presi-
dents last years, Mrs. Mckinley is
