sionaries are to have the right to
go to China and work there with
out molestation. There are
others who have an idea that the
"open door" is right Of spolia-
ton, is the reservation to every
nation of the right to do about as
it pleases in Climate seize pro-
vinces of the empire and make
them their own.
Perhaps the brief definition Of
the ''open door" is that of Sec
rotary Hay in his note of July,
1900, to the great powers of Eu-
rope, in which he said it was the
policy of the United States to
safeguard for the world "the
principle of equal and impartial
trade with all parts of the Chi
nese empire"-Americans, Ger
mans, Englishmen, japanese,
Russians, and merchants of
other countries to stand on the
same footing in Chinese ports.
There would be greater danger
of the closing of the ''open door"
if European nations were to
lease or otherwise acquire con-
troll over Chinese provinces.
Some of those nations at least
would discriminate against all
products save their own. The
cotton cloths, for instance, made
by the subjects would be let into
their Chinese territories duty
free, while those made by others
would be heavily taxed. For
that reason, among others, the
United States has insisted SO en-
ergetically and successfully on
the preservation of the terrific
rial integrity of China.
The "open door" has nothing
to do with religion, but relates
exclusively to trade. 1t is not a

Army Mu1es Never Known to Kick,

Among Our Exchanges.

1t should be the earnest wish
of every patriotic citizen in this
and every other country that war
should be banished from the
earth. The efforts for universal
peace now being shown at the in
ternational peace conference, in
session at Boston, are the most
commendable and some practical
method ought to be adopted that
will bring about universal peace.

1t is a good idea to believe in

CLEANING OUT MOSQUITOES.

The case of the Anti-aIosquito Com
rnittee has been proven. Never in any
other year since the singing insects be-
came a pest has there been so few OF
them as now. Formerly our only relief
came when strong trade winds carried
mosquitoes out to sea in swarms; but
the relief was only temporary, for all
the while rnyriads of these insects were
being Matched. Science has now taken
hold of the breeding places and shown
every householder how he may protect
himself and his neighbors by either
killing the larvae with oil or drying up
the places where they propagate. In
proportion as the people have been
careful and the authorities vigilant, the
mosquito pest has been reduced or
eliminated.
mittee is to keep an eye on household
ers, show them what to do against mos
quitoes and how to do it, to remove tin
cans which may become insect nur-
series, to drain stagnant places, use oil
where necessary and encourage the use
in ponds of larvae-eating fish.
All this costs money as paid inspec-
tors have to be utilized. Subscriptions
have been liberal in the past; let them
be no less so in future. A little money
invested in security from mosquitoes in
creases the comfort of residents and
tourists alike and safeguards health.
This city simply cannot afford to let the
work of the Anti-Mosquito Committee
lapse for lack of funds.

Attorney General Andrews, one of the
best law officers Hawaii ever had, is
ret appreciated by the Bulletin Tt is
doubtful that he ever viii be. There
is but one way to get the undertaking
support OF the Bulletin and that is to
embezzle public funds, do some graft
in the Legislature or help get up a
printing ring with the Gear organ as
tie beneficiary. AS Mr.. Andrews is not
in this class of public officials, he will
probably have to receive the disap-
probation of the Doodle organ for a long
time to come-a distinction common
to honest and capable men in Hawaiian
politics.

THE NAVAL SITUATION.

1t is hard to understand the japanese
naval tactics except on the theory that
every available ship, not guarding
transports, is at work helping the army
against Port Arthur and cannot spare
time from that important work to chase
the Viadivostok squadron.
Apparently no attempt has been made
either to close the Tsugara straits or to
patrol the approaches to Vladfvostok
Else how could the captured Arabia
have made the run from a point sixty
miles off Yokohama to vladivostok un-
scathed? She must have gone through
the straits to reach her destination IN
the time given.

LOOKING FORWARD.

When the War Department gets
through with Honolulu this place will
enter upon a new phase of its existence
that of a great fortress like Malta and
St Lucia. Things viii be very different
with us then socially and every other
way. There win be many troops, deal
of gold braid, much of the pomp and
circumstance of war and large and
permanent addition to the money
spending and consuming population.
Inevitably the presence of the garrison
will add to our tourist attractions, en-
courage farming-for part of the milf
tary defensive plan must be to make
Hawaii elf-supporting-and keep the
hotels lively the year around.
Counting in the naval station, the
census of Honolulu should be increased
by several thousand white men, women
and children. 1t is calculated that a
navy yard employing one thousand men,
mechanics, etc, would build up family
and trading population of five or six
thousand The army garrison viii be
large and its wants will inevitably at
tract business men here and multiply
industries Malta, which is TIA miles
long by ga broad, contains population
of 100, 900, exclusive of British troops and
their families and there are $4,000 white
people living off the garrison and not
a part of it. One may see by this what
a fortified island, though a small one,
means to trade Hawaii, as the Amer
lean Malta to come should profit cor
respondingly.
Brighter days are ahead, fellow
citizens.

| During the summer we take trips some.
where, but this Is the first time a party
of us has travelled such long distance
to seek the knowledge we desire. We
are here TO see volcanic action if, pos
sible. We are going to study first the
Oldest OF the extinct volcanoes which are
on the island of Oahu, then we will go
to Maui to study Haleakala, which is
not so old a crater as those on Oahu.
and then we viii take in Kilauea and
possibly Mauna Loa to witness a living
volcano. OF course I know all these
thoroughly.
4 believe the volcanoes Of the Hawai-
ian Islands are the best to study. be-
cause they are of various ages and are
in close proximity.
Our researches have taken us to Nova

Prof. Barton was born at Sudbury.
Mass, July 8, 1852, and lived there on
farm until twenty-one years of age.
He studied at the Warren Scientific AGA
DENY at Worburn, Mass, from 1874 to
1876, and graduated from the Massachu-
sets Institute of Technology in 1885,
In 1881 and 1882 he was an assistant on
the Hawaiian government survey. He
holds the chair of biology in the Boston
University, and has been an assistant in
United States geological work. AS head
OF the Institute of Technology at Boston
he exercises wide scientific influence.
In 1896 Prof Barton accompanied
Lieut.. Peary on his sixth expedition
into the Arctic regions, and left the party
about half way on that journey He re-
manned in Greenland some time collecting
geological data, taking many photo
graphs, from which he has made a large
number of valuable lantern Slides 1t |
is possible that Prof Barton may be |
induced TO deliver lecture here on his I
Arctic travels as he has the slides with /
