English Press Ignored It.

THE English press. as you well
know. is not altogether too friendly dis
posed toward us Germans. I'm sorry to
say. They keep sharp and watchful
eye On us. and everything that goes on
at the German capital. How is it that
they did not say anything about that
matter? Strange. isn't it? Don't you
think it is also peculiar that no other
Paper took the matter seriously, not
even our own socialis,ic papers?
Only the French papers exploited the
story The French don't like us. and
since our Emperor is endeavoring TO
show his friendship for America the
French have become very jealous. You
know the French always thought they
had mortgage on American friendship.
They sneeref at Tie visit of Prince
Henry, and they almost jumped out of
their skins when the Emperor presented
to America the statue of Frederick the
Great. They expected President Roose-
welt to politely decline the gift. Your
President did just the opposite"

The Story a Fabrication.

But now let ne come to this fabri-
cation. ! suppose you know that the so
ci2listic newspapers in Berlin keep their
eyes open for any and everything that
would throw discred!t on the Emperor
or any member of his family. or. in :act,
on any member OF any royal house
These papers are unusually well in
formed about the doings Of our En-
peror. After they once get hold OF a
piece of news concerning Emperor Will-
lam. his aims and views and his pri-
vate conduct, they viii print it. no mat
ter what the consequences. Now. then.
il is not likely that these papers. which
have agents aud correspondents every
where. should have closed their eyes TO
the love affairs OF the crown prince.

IMPORTANT PAPER
ON NAVIGATION
RODMAN HAS MADE
AN INVESTIGATION FOR TIE
WASHINGTON AUTHORITIES.

Lieutenant Rodman the commander
of the tug Iroquois has finished writ
! ing his sailing directions for the island
| of Hawaii. He is now working rapid
ly to finish the directions for the rest
of the group and within a months time
expects to be able to forward his report
to Washington. The report will make
clean sweep and will in all liability
result in the navy department publish
ing entirely new sailing directions for
the Hawaiian Islands. In fact it
would not be surprising if Lieutenant
Rodman's report would be published
verbatim.
When the report is published the eyes
of many captains will no doubt be
opened They will secure information
that is not known except in the brains
of various island navigators. Lieute-
nant Rodman has made a thorough and
systematic investigation into this sub
ject and as the result of his work both
in visiting the various places about the
islands and personally intervening ISL
andes captains and pilots he has gath
cred information of the most valuable
character
In addition to this work, he has pre-
pared list of all the various light
houses throughout the islands. There
are few enough lights but such as they
cial report. This report will be for
Warded to the Navy department and
will, no doubt, be also sent to the bu-
reau of lighthouses. If it should ever
be decided to make these islands a light
house district, the information sup
piled by Lieutenant Rodman will be
of the utmost benefit
He has also made a number of sug-
gestions regarding the condition of the
present lights and recommended the
establishment of additional lights In
making out this report, Lieutenant
Rodman did not incorporate the va
rious private lights which plantations
have set up for the guidance of crews
on scows and small boats. The lights
which would be used by masters in
making various ports have been touch
ed upon. No action will probably be
taken on these recommendations at the
present time but they will no doubt
serve as a guide to the bureau of
lighthouses in the establishment Of
new lights in these islands.

In a recent report upon the working
men of the United States an English
labor leader says; THE human factor
and the personal equation appear to
count in the United States for more
than they generally do in Europe.
Workmen appear to enjoy a larger
measure Of independence, based on the
knowledge of the fact that work is
more easy to obtain than in older coun-
tries; that they are able, as a rule. to
save money, and are, therefore, less
dependent than when living, as Is not
unusual in Europe, from hand to
mouth, and that they are living under
political regime which is founded on
Democratic principles. Two features
of the relations of employers and en-
ployed may be named as exercising a
powerful influence on the amity Of
their connection-the first, the encour-
agement and reward of workmen's in
ventions, and the second, the readi-
ness with which workmen of excep-
tional capacity can themselves become
employers and capitalists"

TWO PICTURES.

The Republican party promises the
best of legislation when it gains the
election, and knowing the solidity of
the party we may feel assured that
the promises will be carried out. The
Republican party has not only its local
policy to live up, but it has the ideals
of the great Republican party on the
mainland to consider and aspire to.
This is where the position of the Home
Rulers is both anomalous and hopeless.
1t is anomalous because it does not
consider its duties to the country at
large, its hopes and aspirations are
purely local, and it neither desires nor
aims at taking a position among the
greatest combina lion of states upon
the face of the. globe. 1t is hopeless
because It has no utilization with the
moving powers of the great Republic,
and wilfully takes up a position in
which it must be set aside and shelved
as unworthy OF any consideration.
The leaders of the Home Rulers are
the blind leading the blind, and the
end of that proverb is that they shall
both fall into a ditch" They have fall
en- into the ditch of acknowledgement
and have been ignored. Wilcox brought
no appropriations from Washington.
The fire claims, which would mean to
much to the poorer people, who suf-
fered from the sanitary fires might
have been liquidated before this, had
he urged them through the session, but
he allowed them to be ignored, and it
was only when the merchants put w
the money to send private worker to
congress that the claims were properly
laid before the members. In this
though Wilcox was appealed to, he
rendered practically no assistance and
when he returned he houted the fire
claims, till his own party forced him
to see that he'was making an error and
going against his own people. Then he
turned his usual back somersault and
Coared out that he had been thwarted
by the "black-hearted missionaries. %
AS for any other appropriations, APP
parently no effort was made to gel
them.
The Home Rule legislation contrived
to make a history whose pages had
better be left unread. After devoting
a couple of months or more to prepar-
ing for the session, no bill was ready
and the early days were spent in get
ting hold of something that would
pass muster as business. on the othel
hand, any legislation offered by the
Republican minority was utterly ignor-
ed and called down. We all know how
the country was left crippled. How
necessary public works have been Grip
pied and pared down, and the progress
of the Territory practically brought to
a standstill for two years. Even the
county bill was of such an eXtraor-
binary character that it was sent for
signature without having the most
glazing incOngruities corrected, and
which, therefore, could not be signed,
while the municipal act did not ma
terialize at all. This was what Home
Rule did two years ago, and this is
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1902-10-16

what Home Rule would do again if
it only had the chance of controlling
both House and Senate.
The Republicans will give a very diff
ferent record. Their aims are far
reaching, patriotic, and they have the
backing of the majority both in the
House and in the Senate at Washing
ton. They can and will obtain Federal
assistance in public works. They can
promise that we shall have our share
of appropriations, that our harbor will
be improved, our coasts properly light
ed, that we have our share FOR agricul-
tural schools, every item of which will
give work to the citizens of the Ter
ritory and chiefly those of Hawaiian
blood
Locally the Republican party will
give an enlightened and clear financial
policy. 1t will provide for the erection
and carrying out of extensive public
works, not drawing upon current ex-
penses for the means, thus putting the
entire burden upon the present gener-
them, but by means of loan spread
ing the burden over the generations to
come, who will thus pay their share
towards the benefits they enjoy. The
financial policy of a country has its
inception in the legislature. If it is
put on a proper and sound basis there
the Treasurer has little to do but dis
burse with care. You must therefore
have a legislature with party policy
to place the most important portion of
the government of the Territory upon
sure foundation.
The Republican party is pledged to
arrange for county government and to
draw mp a general municipal law. To
meet this the party has a committee to
prepare the bills, which committee has
called in the assistance Of men of great
experience in such matters, and When
the legislature meets the bills will be
ready, not scissors and paste rubbish,
but well thought-out measures, appli-
cable to our general conditions, and
fitted for general and intelligent dis
cussion
Under the control of the Republican
party the Territory can look for a re-
turn to that prosperity which it should
be enjoying. Under the control of the
Republican party the whole union has
been and is enjoying the most phenom-
email prosperity. We can see for our
selves what Republicanism has done
elsewhere. Are we going to make our
selves or are we going to mar ourselves
and our prospects? We can affiliate
with the party of progress, the party
. of success and the party of enlighten-
ment. We can if we like form a little
local party of our own which will be
neither successful, progressive nor en-
lightened. Republicanism is our key
note to the future Home Rule would
mean the death knell of our hopes.
There is no doubt as to what the ma
jorty of voters want. The progress Of
the Republican campaign and its sue
cess augurs well for the future of the
Territory Of Hawaii.

Kauai is going Republican, Every
report from that Island shows the
strong tendency towards Republican
ism. At Hanalei there has been a per-
feet land slide towards the Republican
party, and the Home Rulers are rush
ing in to see if they can save a stone
or two. The efforts will be of little use,
for the solid Kauai voters had made
up their minds long ago, and it is now
the waverers that are coming in.
