The sue cess of the Germans in Latin America has been fairly won. They are trained like intellectual athletes.

The Jesuits educate young men thoroughly along classical lines; they have the air of molding minds, and if they under took practical business education the result would be good.

When the news of the death of Mr..

that the story was Republican

! spected for the reason that the curator

number of men on the board to feath-

The signs Of the times indicate that
IL Japan and Russia go to war the
United States cannot keep out of the
rumpus. In the event Of such con-
clusion, where will we, in Hawaii, get
off? 1t is a clear proposition that in
any contest between the United States
and a first-class foreign power these
islands, being a most important STRAIT
egical center and one of the most eX-
posed points Of the American nation,
will be the first object of attack. What
has the Government done in the way
of defenses for the Islands? How does
IL purpose to protect them? We sup
pose that when the idea is again sug-
gested at Washington another commits
sion will be sent down to "investi-
gate"
Leading Home Rulers claim that
their party is solid for John Wise for
the Office of county sheriff If that be
so, the new nominee is as good as
elected. Wise will certainly draw 300
but in our opinion it Is conservative
and not above the correct mark. These
added to the vote of the Home Rule
party will land Wise over the line
with ballots to spare There has been
an immense reaction in the Brown
campaign in the past week, and the in
fuence of that reaction has been felt
most among the haoles. 1t is being
more prominently felt of late that
Brown has been next to the Govern
ment tit quite long enough and some
other citizen should about this year of
our lord be given a show.
Sam Johnson, the Industrious Repub-
lican of the Fourth District, is not de-
voting all of his time to the garbage
department of the Government A part
OF his business is taking care of the
| booze accounts OF the men working un-
| der him. Edward Devauschelle, one
OF his employees, owns beer saloon
near the junction Of South and Queen
streets. Johnson's men trade there on
account, payable at the end Of the
month. On pay days johnson deducts
from the wages of each man the
amount of the money due to Devau-
| schelle-at so much per deduction.
During the month of September De-
yauschelle took in something like $400
in this way. There is a law against
holding out the wages of Government
employees in this way and it might be
| brought properly to bear in this case
