1t was held in the famous case OF
Trustees of Dartmouth College VS..

as 1919, that the charter of a corpora.

Federal Constitution.
The case is binding upon all States
and Territories, for 1t Is a construction
of a clause in the Constitution of the
United States. 1t Is binding upon the
Territory of Hawaii and an attempt to
repudiate the contract contained in
this charter would, in the opinion Of
your committee, seriously impair the
credit fthe Territory.
Who would be willing to accept a

work OF public improvement that is

opinion that this resolution ought not

THE ELECTRIC FRAN. HISES,

II Is becoming rather difficult to fol-
low the gentlemen who have taken up
the discussion of granting franchises
by the Legislature with particular ref
elenCe to the Hawaiian Electric Com.
pany.
First, the readers of n newspaper ap'
parently deeply interested in the mat
ter were told in effect that one electric
company was sufficient to supply the
demand in Honolulu; that to grant an
other franchise would be TO foist an
other company on the community with
the result that the competition would
be so sharp that neither could make
money or give proper service, and the
result, consolidation.
Hardly has the smoke Of the first
blast cleared when the public Is in
formed that the Hawaiian Electric
Company's request for an extension OF
franchise Is a demand for too much OF
a good thing. The franchise. 1t is
claimed, should be limited to ten years
and any other company seeking fran
chise should be so hedged about, re
garding the placing of wires in the
streets, as to make the Hawaiian Elec
trio Companys franchise exclusive II
reality though the exact word may not
appear in the Legislative Act.
This change OF heart seems to be
brought about by the discovery tina
Honolulu is a growing town, and 1t IL
now decided that in the course of ter
years 1t may be able to support an
other company.
The gist OF the whole discussion thus
far is that the Hawaiian Electric Com
pany, whose exclusive franchise ok
pires this year, should be allowed t
put off as far as possible the evil da!
OF competition. Extension for fit!
years is too patent. Ten years sounds
better and, If worst came to worst

would be better than nothing,

dollars and Congress had set aside

no appropriation. she would be the
only one on the outside.

A Woman Not an Angel.

When you've looked this wide world
over.
Tender husband, signing lover;
Sought among the sex SO charming
with intuition true.
You will find. 1 think, that woman
Is not an angel, but just human;
Blessed with earthly aspirations
cursed with human frailties. too.
Men are ever looking higher
Than themselves, and thus aspire
From the solemn heights OF heaven
angel helpmates to allure.
But an angel cannot kiss you,
Cling to, fret for. long for. miss you.
Neither could she stray from heaven
burdened with your grief and care
Woman is no angel truly,
But just flesh and blood as fully
AS the frail and faulty partner of her
joys and griefs can be.
Yet If God should angel call her,
Still 1 hope He won't recall her,
For though she be not angelic she is
good enough for me.
Good enough for man-the sinner
Good as nurse and as bread winner,
Coed to Danish gloom around you when
Gods other lights are dim,
Good to guide your feet to virtue.
Keep you back from sins that hurt
you,
Good to brighten off the spectors
thronging round deaths angel
grim.
Constant her devotion ever.
Wavering In her friendship never.
Gentle as a dewdrop falleth is to ach-
ing brow her hand:
Warm in her affection, clinging
To her loved. tho ruined, bringing
Hope where once was desperation, rul-
ing with unvoiced command.

CURRENT COMMENT
MRS. BOOTH TUCKER.

Mrs. Emma Tucker, consul
in America of the Salvation Army. who
lost her life recently by railroad ac-
cident, was a conspicuous example of
what a woman can do in a world o.
work.
Mrs. Booth-Tucker was q well-born,
beautiful and cultured lady who might
easily have shone in society" Her
life horizon might have been bounded
by dresses, jewels, dinners. balls. fit
tings from one fashionable resort to
another and amusements frivolous and
wasteful when they were not demon
aliZing. She chose rather, with her en-
thusiastic husband, a mighty task of
rescue, leading and encouragement for
Gods poor"-yes, and the devils poor
as well. What that task is in a great
city New York knows nearly as we'll
as London.
But the east is less familiar with
the wonderful farm colony work Of the
army in Colorado and California, which
Mrs. Booth-Tucker had been inspecting
just before she met her death. and
which is the most promising of all the
Salvationist enterprises. To get the
poor of the cities back to the land"
