New Turbine Yacht
Reaches New York

New York, May 4.-The steam zach,
Emerald, the first turbine-driv yes.
sci ever to cross the Atlantic. arrived
at this port today, chartered for ons
year by George ]. Gould of the New
York Yacht Club from her owner, Sir
Christopher Furness. Captain Donald
Tod brought the big new yacht to her
berth in Manning's basin, Brooklyn.
The weather during the voyage could
not have been more severe unless 1t
had wrecked the vessel, and through II
all the engines behaved beautifully.
Not breakdown, and no racing OF the
propellers, and entire absence OF vibra-
ton. She steamer at half speed In
heavy weather, turning up $50 revolu-
tons. When the Emerald is at full
speed, more than fifteen knots, 700
revolutions are made by the three pro-
pellers.
Built by Sir Christopher Furness last
fall, the Emerald is one of three tur-
bine yachts in England. She is 2S6
feet in length over all, 2s feet inches
beam, and IS feet inches in depth.

1t is with sincere regret that the Bull

which the Attorney Generals depart
ment press agents are aroused in con-
sequence of the general amusement af-
forded by its bribery farce COM

fury like woman scorned, and 1t is
possible this bears some relation to
the pent-up feelings created by the
general laugh which the Attorney Gen.
eral and his press bureau have started
over their matinee performance. Anger
is unfortunately not a convincing ar
gument. The more it comes in evil
dence the less likely is the Attorney
General to get special detective fund

TERRITORIAL STATISTIcIAN.

One of the recent recommendations
made to the Legislature by Governor
Dole deserves the support Of the Leg
islature to an extent even further than
is asked by the Governor. The Dulle-
tin refers to the request for an appro-
priation of s24OO suggested for a Ter
ritorial Statistician, with $3.50 for Office
expenses.
The value of statistics is becoming
more and more appreciated by the
American people. AT Washington there
is a Bureau Of Statistics, established
In connection with the Treasury De-
partment, that employs force of more
than forty persons, many of whom are
compelled to work far into the night
when Congress is in session in compil-
ing and preparing information re-
quired by members of both the upper
and lower branches of the National
legislature. Besides this. the import
ance OF statistics has been recognized
by many States of the Union. In New
York. for instance, there is now bu-
reau with five statisticians besides a
clerical force and typewriters.
While Honolulu has not yet grown
TO such degree of magnitude as New
York, 1t Is time that a respectable be-
ginning were made.
What we need is not merely clerical
labor that can add, subtract, divide and
multiply figures, but a man who can
makes figures talk.
The mere presentation of a mass OF
tabulated statistics makes pretty dry
reading. but their results are interest
ing II intelligently explained with as
much brevity as possible in the tabula-
ton. A statistician is not a mere fig-
urer, or figure head, but one who can
argue and deduct from the results Of
his labors and, hardest of all, make
other people understand what figures
really mean. A vast amount of work
can also be done in the way of COM
pilations, references and the accumula-
ton of statistics from Washington and
other parts of the Mainland as well as
from other parts of the world.
The right kind Of man can make
the Office of Territorial Statistician in
valuable to Hawaii. Can the right man
be obtained for the amount of money
offered? In the matter of expenses, too.
the sum of ten dollars a month Is RI
dIculous and barely sufficient to pay for
stationery, which must include spec
tally prepared and ruled blanks to meet
the information gathered under differ
ent investigations.
The Statistician should not be clerk
to be loaded down with lot of figuring
that other departments may wish to
shunt on to new shoulders, but a man
who is competent to do what the name
and position imply, While the Bulle-
tin Is opposed to any extravagant sal
AIRY policy we are equally the enemy Of
a niggardly one, and suggest that law
makers give careful consideration for
the proposed official as well as for the
expenses of the office.

Since these are the chief objects Of
the Saturday afternoon sideshow, II is
sincerely regretted that the Attorney
Generals hot time with his press agent
in musty wardrobe should come to
naught
The seriousness of the gambling sit
uation becomes more impressive IL
has required only moments figuring
for the lightning cafcu,ators of the
press bureau to convince themselves
that $4,000 year or more than seven
per cent on million dollars is a mere
bagatelle in the earnings of four pos.
sible Chinese huis. This conclusion
is reached with confidence of asser-
ton equalled only by the glib manner
in which the purported gamblers agent
ratified off proposals to pay on futures,
but signally failed to produce a dollar
on account. II this lightning calcula.
ton be correct, 1t is time legitimate
bankers, plantation promoters, to say
nothing Of small farmers, investigated
this new school OF finance by which
four Chinese huis can realize day in
and day out all the way from seven
to twenty per cent on a million dollars
and still leave enough to carry on the
legitimate business of the town. Such
easy money and such quantities If II
deserve the attention of the Tourist
Committee. With opportunities like
this to get rich quick, the committee
could pay all proposed bills and have a
surplus of silver dollars to pave sec
ton OF Fort street as a special attrac-
ton.
/ There is another phase of the ques-
: ton which deserves attention since the
threat involved to the circulating coin
of the Territory may have caused At
torney General Andrews to come out
OF the wardrobe in a rush and led the
| Deputy Attorney General to aim his toy
cannon at the purportcd gamblers
agent iWth profits of $4,000 a week
more or less-according to the press
agents probably more-these four Chin
ese huis would in ffty-two weeks cor
raj 100000 of the circulating medium
OF the Territory. At this rate 1t would
be but short time before these huis
would have all the coin in the islands
and the community be forced to fall
back on the |. o. U. system with which
the Territorial departments have had
several very unpleasant experiences.
! II desire to thwart such POSSIBLE
ity was the real object of the At
torney General submitting himself TO
the discomforts of the sweat box and
his deputy arming himself with a can
non to repel boarders and the name Of
the go-between being withheld "in the
iterests Of Justice" then indeed is
the Attorney General deserving large
measure of praise, to which his press
agents represent him to be entitled.
Otherwise the public finds itself I'M
able to go on record as being so thor
oughly gullible as the Attorney Gen.
erals press agents would assume The
Honolulu public has been annexed long
enough to know political shell game.
