MANUAL TRAINING AT PUNAHoU

The engagement of a teacher of man
ual training at Oahu College should be
welcome news to many in this COM
munity. There is no place in the
world where a sensible and practical
course such as this, in which empha-
sis Is laid rather on executive power
and the ability to meet every day
problems, than on book lore, is more
greatly needed than in Hawaii. This
want has been filed in not few cases
by individual enterprise; in one in
stance, a prominent citizen kept the
services of Kamehameha manual
training instructor for two years while
his son pursued the course: another
gentleman has provided his son with
lathe and forge and he is justly enthu-
siaStic over the good which the boy
has gotten even without instruction; q
third who has long been connected with
educational work has gathered together
at his home a small class of young
children whom he has personally in
structed and directed. The establish
ment Of this course at the College with
a skillful instructor and all conven-
iences places within reach of every one
been a regular part Of the best school
systems in the East.
When 1t is remembered that the
trustees of the college are going to no
small expense in presenting this OPP
portunity not only to it's present pa
irons but to the whole community as
well, the enterprise should receive the
support that it deserves. If the de-
mand for II in this case is wide
spread and insistent, the public schools
will not be slow in arranging for the
same advantages. By patronage and
judicious encouragement, all who have
children should make sure of the con-
tinuance and extension of this vital
training of which this community
stands in such great need. All citi-
gems who are looking to Hawairs COM
mercial, industrial and educational ad-
vancement should give this proposition
substantial support.

NO WAR WITH EUROPE.

1t appears that Secretary Root Is In
trouble for making a speech to Philip
pine veterans in which he predicted
that war would soon come between the
United States and some foreign power.
The veterans talked about the speech
outside the banquet hail, much TO the
embarrassment of the Presidents war
minister and the latter had to make
explanations. He had not said "soon,'
at all. He was only speaking IN
general way" AS restated the speech
ran along in this vein OF glittering
platitudes: when the time comes,
as we know it will come some time
we do not know when and we do not
know whence, but we know 1t will
come some time-when you (referring
to both the army and the navy are
called upon to defend our country,
you will do 1t with mutual helpfulness
and comradeship."
This talk of a war between the Unit
ed States and some European power
of view. There Is quite a strong
chance that people Interested in build
ing up the Army and Navy to semi
European status are adopting the tao
tics of Won MoltEe who, whenever he
wanted another division recruited, got
up in the Reichstag and declared that
war with France was at hand. Per-
haps, on the other side, the alarmists
are sincere in their apprehension of
what may come of the Old World
scheme of trade combinations against
us or of our adhesion to the indefensi-
BILE Monroe doctrine. But 1t Is well, in
going over the whole matter, to recall
that the United States has an almost
irrefragable guarantee against any Sc
rious war in the desire of every Eu-
ropean State to secure It's aid against
frontier enemies. That is to say. a
power like Germany may not love u.s.;
but IL the United States would apply
for admission to the Dreibund, thus
offering to make it a Vierbund and
putting Russia and France into n
corner where they could do nothing
to prevent an exploitation of the in
terests of the four-cornered alliance,
then there would be no more trouble
with Germany. Or, on the other hand.
il the Dreibund were to prove OBJ
durate, Russia and France would glad
ly welcome the United States into an
alliance with them. So either way
makes our game-and IL not, there re-
mains an Anglo-Saxon Federation
against which the outsiders would
hesitate to levy war for trade or for
any other purpose.
Good craftsmanship on the part of
this country ought to save it from any
serious trouble with Europe without
sacrificing an iota of our national
honor and dignity.

THE MAUI JUDGesnlP.

The Advertiser hopes that the Ha-
wallan Bar Association. which has no
higher duty before 1t than the i'm
provement and publication of the
bench. will have something to say
about the Maui judgeship when the
office becomes vacant-or before, IL
necessary. Each judicial district of
the Territory deserves the ablest and
cleanest Judge who can be had for the
place and no bench should be turned
over to the politicians to fill with
some one who has earned job or who.
for any. reason, they may wish to
shelve. An office which has the power
OF life and death, which can restrain
ones liberty and sequester ones es-
tates, ought to be regarded as the most
important in the Territory as indeed
1t is in the extent of its power and the
sweep of its authority. A failure to
keep that fact in mind has given Ha-
wall some of the worst judges that
ever cursed an American community;
and now that the survivors of the first
recruitage are about to be turned
down, we trust that the Bar Associa-
ton will see that higher standard Is
established for those to follow.

IN CASE OF SIEGE.

The fact that n fleet carrying only
5000 men can produce a food famine in
Honolulu in two weeks shows to what
extremes the city and the island may
be reduced in case of war and siege.
1t is highly pertinent to'inquire what
Honolulu would do II shut out from
communication with the mainland for
three or four months? The extremely
wealthy would live, of course. but how
would the middle and lower classes In
the financial scale weather such a con-
tingency? The question Is a serious
one.-Independent.
That is where diversified agriculture
comes in. This papers advocacy OF
small farming has only included the
raising of vegetables as an incident,
but II war should be threatened II
would be a public duty to plant every
available acre CT public and private
land not required for cattle and fruit,
with quick growing food products and
to vastly extend the areas adaptable
to taro and rice. This, of course, pre-
supposes an acquaintance with agricul-
tural pests and the means of fighting
them; also community Of farmers
who could be drawn upon to superin-
tend understanding on a great
scale. Anything like dependence upon
canned food would be futile, especially
for the 10000 Asiatics and the 10000
helpless Hawaiians. The safety Of the
Territory from famine would depend
either on agriculture or surrender to a
blockading force.

THE LOCAL THEATRICAL FIELD.

The Neill company has not done well
this time in Honolulu and will not re-
turn. AS a show town this city is not
what 1t was in boom days, but it is bet
ter than the Neill receipts indicate.
Warde came while the financial tide was
ebbing, but had full houses and took
away about $4,000 in net proits-but
Warde was new Perhaps even he could
not have done SO we'll had he come

Honolulu has just one congregation of
play-goers of the better class and that
congregation must have variety of
actors as we'll as of plays. In large

but he cannot do it in a small city
where there is little change or growth

Asatics and some others from this

and European community of less than
10000, out of which the play going pro-
portion must be drawn. This is not
much but it is enough to support n

are new stars on the stage; but 1t will
not respond to the same old thing In

our people have seen them too often.

The manner in which the Advertiser

If Japan means to fight Russia she
Is losing valuable time. Every week
that passes adds to Russia's naval and
military strength in the Far East, but
does not materially increase that of
Japan. The Mikado's fleet remains
as it was six months ago. save for the
purchase of two cruisers but Russia's
fleet is being augmented as fast as
warships can be sent from the Euro
pean station and as torpedo boats can
be built at Port Arthur. Russian reg
ulars are being shipped into Manchuria
by sea and transported there by rail;
while the japanese are merely recruit
ing comparatively unframed men. If
this state of things continues, Russia's
position will soon be impregnable; and
Japan will have the choice between in
wiling disaster to her arms or accept
ing humiliation for her pride.

Richard Harding Davis's account Of
the revolutionary movement here In
1893 must have been derived from the
essays OF Julian Hayne. The view Is
wholly partisan and biased and is
contradlcted by the findings of the
Morgan commission which went into
the matter exhaustively. We note
that Minister Stevens is credited with
the first and over-prompt recognition
of the Provisional Government when,
as matter Of historical verify, and as
the Morgan report shows, the British
Minister Resident, Major Wodehouse,
was the first to. recognize the new re-
gime That he tried to back out af-
forwards, did not alter the fact that he
had found the Provisional Government
in recognizable shape at the start. AS
for the interference" of the Boston's
marines, no contemporary local Royal
list paper imagined such a thing until
days afterwards when they heard from
the ex-Queen's lawyer, one Of them
saying while the revolution was in
progress: "Our friends are needlessly
alarmed: the United States forces are
not interfering in any way"
