yet it's necessary and unavo idable
badness was not in that campaign
enhanced. In scope and spirit Lees
order was observed, and / doubt if a
hostile force ever advanced in an
enemy's country, or fell back from it
in retreat, leaving behind it less cause
Of hate and bitterness than did the
Army of Northern Virginia in that
memorable campaign which culmina
ted ut Gettysburg. Because he was
soldier, Lee did not feel it inoumb
ent upon him to proclaim himself a
brute, or to exhort his followers to
brutality.
III have paid my tribute. One
word more and have done. Some
six months ago, in certain academ-
10 address at Chicago, l called to
mind the fact that statue of Oliver
Cromwell now stood in the yard of
Parliament house in London, close
to that historic hall Of Westminster,
from the roof of which his severed
head had once looked down. Call
ing to mind the strange changes of
feeling evinced by the memory of that
grinning skull in the presence of
that image of ze-remembering g
that Cromwell, once traitor and re-,
gicide, stood now conspicuous among
Englano's worthiest and most honor.
ed asked, why should it not also
in time be 80 with Lee? Why should
not his effigy, erect on his charger
and wearing the insignia of his Con
federate rank, gaze from his pedestal
across the Potomac at the Virginia
shore, and his once dearly loved home
at ArlingtonH' He, too, is one of
the precious possessions of what is
an essential factor in the nation that
now is, and is to be.
MY suggestion was met with an
answer to which would now make
reply. 1t was objected that such a
memorial was to be provided from
the national treasury, and that Lee,
educated at West Point, holding for
years the commission Of the United
States, had borne arms against tho
nation. The rest will not here re-.
peat The thing was pronounced
impossible.
"Now let me here explain myself
| never supposed that Robert e.
Lees statue in Washington would
be provided fer by an appropriation
from the national treasury. l did
not wish it; do not think it fitting
Indeed, do not rate high statues
erected by act of congress-, and paid
for by public money. They have
small Significance. Least of all would
l suggest such one in the care of
Lee. Nor was it 30 with Cromwell. His
effigy is a private gift, placed where
it is by act of parliament. SO, when
the time is ripe, should it be with
Lee, and the time will come. When
it docs come, the effigy, assigned to
Its place merely by act Of congress,
should bear some such inscription az
this:
"ROBERT EDWARD LEE.

KAHULUI BOAT RACE.

WAILUKU, May 23.-Visitors at Ka-
hului last Sunday morning. witnessed "A
very beautiful and exciting boat race
between the Kahului Railroad Com
panys boat Kaupu, captained by Pc
tersen, and the Galilee, with Pilot Eng
lish at the tillcr, 1t was an ideal day
for the race, although the breeze was
rather light at times for the Kaupu,
which with a capfull or so more of
wind would have made "a closer ace.
The flag boat was anchored about
two miles out, and the course lay from
the wharf around the buoys, thence out
around the flag boat and back along
the same course to the wharf. Both
boats shot across the line and swung
out around the buoys to an even start
at 1925 Like two great white sea birds
the two boats sped around the buoys
and out to sea, the Kaupu leading and
rounding the flag boat at l0:47:ll the
Galilee rounding ii at 10:47:S9. Then
started an exciting race homeward,
during which the Gallee picked up
the Kaupu and crossed the home line
at 1851, followed by the Kaupu at
10:56:6, five seconds behind the time
being p min. and 1 sec. and the dis
lance sailed being over four miles. An
other race is on tomorrow morning,
weather permitting.

Elks in Saturdays games at Punahou
There was another large crowd at the

aroused much feeling.
Both the results were a surprise.
The Elks thought they were winners
and so did many people who are not
Elks, and there was money up on the
games. The Males had been reported
to be much strengthened, and Male
victory was looked for. The play was
lively and gave the crowd plenty of ex-
