The present antics OF the House
in raising salary appropriations on
third reading, after having them re-
duced on second reading, seems very
peculiar to us. We fail to under
stand the members, but it is evident
that there are other agents, probab-
ly the fictitious Col Mamma, is at
work on the outside to raise salaries.
Many of those now in Government
employ could not earn the same
salaries on the outside, even if they
we're to try.

5000 skilled mechanics and other
valuable citizens from the Islands,
and expect nearly as many this
year. Besides that we gel nearly
$2,000,000 in revenue every twelve
months from down there. Standing

Hawaii's delegation may be a
small potato in the convention; but
turning to the story of the fettered
lion and the mouse, one is reminded
of what little things can do in a
sufficient time. The few votes from
Hawaii may in the ordinary course
OF events become prizes Of gold to
Mr. Roosevelt; and if they do not
naturally become so, they can be
made SO.

We have it upon the authority OF
one who claims to know all about it
that Mr. Cooper's withdrawal OF his
resignation is only temporary. 1t is
understood that the Governors first
choice for the position of Superin-
tendent OF Public Works is Marston
Campbell, and it is even limited that
Mr. Cooper will only resume Office
with the understanding that he will
resign after the Legislature is over
and then the Governor can appoint
Mr. Campbell. If such ls really the
case, it is we'll that the Legislature
should now take heed and place the
Office in such a manner as to dis
regard even Mr. Cooper's letter ol
"sincere appreciation" of the "call

ROOSEVELT and DOLE

The Advertiser excepts to our
suggestion that President Roosevelt
would hardly capture the Hawaiian
vote in the Republican National
Convention by making "goo-goo"
eyes at E P Dole, the Governor and
George r Carter; and scents in the
remark plot to capture the Repub-
lican primaries and fight Dole, Cart
or, Cooper & Co. with the Republic
al delegation to the convention
The Advertiser evolves out of the
suggestion an argument in favor of
closed primaries, to "save the
country" as usual-to the mission
aries.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1903-06-30

II the Advertiser imagines for
moment that the Republicans OF Ha-
waii will tolerate close-corporation
primaries, next year, it has another
guess coming or. we lose the wager.
As we take it the Republicans are
out for votes, and will need them,
too, almighty bad, in the next cam
paign. Leaders of the party will
undoubtedly not be Glow to realize
this fact, and the Republicans will
be as slow to discourage votes as
will the Democrats. Neither party
can afford to sacrifice vitality needed
support to please any clique or fac
tion, not even to save Dole, Garter
and Cooper.

1t is still conundrum how the
Home Rule members of the House
got roped into endorsing the pro-
Cooper resolution. The only ex-
plauatiop given is that an endorse
ment of Cooper was the only means
of saving the public works depart
ment from the clutches OF Marston
Campbell. II this be 50 it is a sad
commentary on local Conditions

TO SOLVE THE
RACE PROBLEM
PLANS OF THE NATIONAL SOCIO-
LOGICAL SOCIETY-COMMlTTEE
APPOINTED TO STUDY IT.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 12.-The Ma
tional Sociological Society, to consider
the race problem, closed it's session to-
day, by the adoption of a series of
resolutions. One of the most impor-
tant things done was the creating of
commission of six members, three from
each race, to lay the race question b.
fore Congress and to aid in the soiu-
tion of the race problem.
This Commission is to cooperate
with any commission which may be APP
pointed by the Federal Government
and 10 assist i'm keeping facts, plans
arguments and efforts for the solu-
ton of the race problem before the
/ public and the government.
/ The resolutions adopted declare that
II is the duty of the government to af-
ford adequate protection to every citi-
| zen, as his constitutional right. and
that the perpetuity of the Republic is
| dependent upon fidelity to this prin-
ciple.
That there can be no master race and
subject race, but adj must be equal.
| Crimes leading to mob violence and
mob violence itself, are deplored, and
the orderly process of law is stated as
the best method of preventing crime.
AS solutions of the race problem, col
IbIiIHell lpll' PAL u ithliOiA anu
ton are regarded as unworthy of fur
Their consideration.
The resolutions further say: I'VE
have faith in the increasing intelli-
gence, industry and thrift OF the negro,
, inasmuch as during the past 40 years
Of freedom, the negroes have, in spite
| of adverse circumstances of an unusu-
al character, made rapid progress. The
records show that they pay taxes of
more than 5000, 900 valuation of real
estates, besides the aid given to their
ecclesiastical and charitable institu-
tons"
The increase of education facilities
In the South'is made subject of con-
graduation. 1t is deplored that most OF
the great religious denominations i'm
the North have not yet united with
corresponding bodies in the South
in some form of union for a general
campaign. Congressional appropria-
tons in aid of education are asked. the
resolutions concluding with this para
graph:
THAT we are thoroughly alive to the
, Importance of this race problem and
believe that ii is highly necessary that,
when settled, it shall be settled right.
and TO that end we recommend the au-
thorization of the National Government
of an inquiry into the condition of the
colored people of the United States"

K1TcHENER's INJURIES

SIMLA, India, Nov. 16.-As the result
of the accident which befell Lord Kit
chener while riding through tunnel,
his leg was twisted and both bones
snapped above the ankle. Although
accustomed to the tunnel, Lord Kit
chener's horse was frightened by sud
denly coming upon a native. The ami
NAL swerved and damned its rider
against a beam in the Sidewalk Upon
discovering the identity of the injured
man the coolies bolted and left him ly-
ing on the ground, where he suffered
greatly for half an hour. The broken
bones have been set, and after having
passed a good night the General is In
a cheerful mood.
1t appears that Lord Kitchener had
informed the members of his staff that
he was not going out for a ride, but
later changed his plans. Hence he was
alone when the accident occurred.

the state superintendent of Iowa that
he ought to have something of the kind
and he at once caught at the idea, and
asked me to send him some material.
In one school the superintendent pro-
posed to introduce such matter at once,
in the classes. The state superintendent
is a progressive man, and when | sug-
gested that it would be a good plan to
have a book giving briefly the histories
of Hawaii, the Philippines, Porto Rico
and Alaska, so that American children
may learn something about those pos
sessions, he took 1T up quickly and [
think he will carry out the plan in
Iowa. If our promotion committee
would prepare a brief pamphlet and
send copies to the various superinten-
dents, offering more copies for teach
ers and pupils at a nominal sum, the
islands would receive much benefit.
"In Washington | did not see a single
department head who was not friend
ly to Hawaii and anxious to do every
thing for her that can be done under

them, but good result are bound to
come from the general disposition to
help the islands.

WASHINGTON. November l2.-Wheu
ex-Queen Liliuokalani of Hawaii ar
rives in Washington in the course OF
the next few days to prosecute her
claim for $4,000 for property alleged
TO have been taken away from her by
the United states Government she Will
have more attention from the national
legislators than she ever had before.
The Queens claims for damages have
heretofore been treated as a joke, but
last summer a special commission Of
Senators, Of which Senator Burton Of
Kansas was one, went to Hawaii and
Investigated the eX-Queen's claims.
Senator Burton says that he believes
Congress ought to reimburse Liliuoka-
lani and declares that to vote her $780,
600 would not even be doing justice.
MIR. Burton says that the other Sem
ators who went with him to Hawaii
were impressed in the same way. AS
these Senators are members of the
Senate Committee on the Pacific ISL
ands thy are in position to have great
weight in any measure looking toward
the relief of Hawairs eX-Queen.
