to lose their natural sense of regard for
financial honesty as we'll as for social pur-
ity.
But this Is being mended. Much of what
l have been writing relates to forty years
ago. 1t is still only eighty-four years since
the earliest CLEAN of Christian civilization
first dawned upon the barbarian Hawaiians.
They eagerly accepted the light and turned
to 1t. But the regeneration of nation s
habit of thought and conduct takes time.
The present Is only the fifth generation
since the utter darkness of demon worship
and human sacrifices and promiscuous
domestic life. Wonders have been accom-
plished. The social and personal reform
and elevation has been marvellous. Yet
much of the old deficiency remains.
Advance Of the Hawaiians.
l regard the present rate of ethical pro-
gress among Hawaiians very much
greater than in any previous period. They
are fast becoming more practically en-
lightened The cause of this is in the
greatly increased amount of special educa-
ton in training schools. At the present
date there must be not less than one thou
sand native Hawaiian youth of both sexes
in training and boarding schools of SUI
perior character and in constant contact
with earnest Christian teachers Of the very
best class. Perhaps $50 young men and
women graduate from these schools every
year and go out to disseminate among their
5000 kinsmen the higher ideas they have
absorbed during several years of careful
training.
70 this Is to be added the vastly in
creased knowledge of English among the
pupils of the common schools, which DIR
ing the past twenty years has lifted ma
1ority OF the Hawaiians into more or less
capacity for absorbing ideas from English
DOCKS and newspapers. The average Ha-
waiian still has a very crude acquaintance
with our tongue. But it is growing, and
the social ideas of Christian civilization are
becoming increasingly familiar to him.
This increase of light Is becoming acceler-
ated. A few generations more will bring
the remaining Hawaiians into full mental
contact with the best light of American
civilization.
1t should be added that as a chief infiu-
ence of power the Hawaiian Is becoming
more completely familiar with the Chris
tian religion, and more under it's mental
and spiritual influence in some one of its
forms. About one-haf of the native peo-
pie are affiliated to some one of the
Protestant denominations. The other half
are about equally divided between the Ro-
man Catholics and the Mormons. Alto
gether the Hawaiian Is under the influence
of very copious radiance of moral and
spiritual light.
Thus 1t seems reasonable to entertain a
sanguine expectation that this new class Of
American citizens will ere long attain a
useful status as worthy upholders of in
telligence and sound government. Hawaii
will have very mixed race, of commingled
white, Polynesian. Chinese and japanese
blood derived from the children now
lily hope and expect that this mixed popula-
ton will all become nodded to a worthy
type of American and Christian civiliza-
ton. KAMEdAMEHA.

WAS TAGGART FORCED oUTp
Reported That Sheehan Caused His Re-
moval to Indiana

dispatch from New York last night
says: Thomas Taggart, chairman of the
democratic national committee, is to go to
French Lick Springs. Ind, to establish a
western democratic headquarters. His de-
parture is scheduled for about October 10.
1t is understood in democratic circles that
Mr.. Taggart has been forced to leave New
York by William F. Sheehan, August Bel
me mt and Senator German. The latter has
beer chosen as chief adviser of the Parker
campaign, and after Mr. Taggart starts for
the west will take charge of the national
committees work. 1t is understood that
Mr.. Taggart did not consent to 'abdicate'
until the national committee promised to
finance the campaign in Indiana literally.

A dispatch from Mobile, Ala, last night
says: Capt. Frank Lighton, a collector for
the Smithsonian Institution, Washington,
was brought into Biloxi, Miss, last night
from Chandelier Island, Mississippi Sound
where he had been a castaway since Thurs
day night last Capt. LEIGHTON was out in
his sloop Hero looking for specimens, and
was some miles out in the open gulf when
he encountered terrific gale, In which his
sloop was overturned and he was thrown
into the sea to battle for his life against a
gulf storm. He succeeded in reaching a
to reach a schooner about a mile out to sea-
but the weather and sea were too rough,
and he made for Chandelier Island, which
he reached after an all-night fight with the
waves.

LAUDS THE PRESIDENT
CHAS. J. BONAPARTE PAYS ROOSE-
WELT HIGH PRAISE.
Makes Political Speech in Which he
Gives Reasons for His
Reelection.

In a speech at Forest Hill, Md. Mr.. Chas.
]. Bonaparte of Baltimore paid high trib-
ute to President Roosevelt. The commenda-
ton was all the more significant from the
fact that Mr.. Bonaparte was formerly a
democrat and prominent in democratic poll
tics Of the state In recent years he has
been identified with the independent vote of
Maryland. He said.-
Roosevelt should remain our President
because he is a man and also because he Is
an honest man.
when I say Theodore Roosevelt is a
man, mean. in the sirst place. that he is
not monograph or any other kind Of au-
tomaton; what he talks put hasn't been
talked into him by somebody else: when he
gets up In the morning, he doesn't call w
David B. Hill or any gone else on long dis
lance phone to ask If he may say tina. it
is fine day.
Secondly mean that he, talks out some
not always agree with him, but he says
what he means, he means what he says and
no one need guess at his meaning. 1t must
be owned that Judge Parker Is rather heavl.
ly handicapped In the comparison. HIS
present predicament reminds me of the
story told of a young minister who was to
preach on trial before a congregation Of
mult1-millionaires at very fashionable
watering place, and who ran over his most
carefully prepared sermons with Jldacious
friend to select one suitable. He thought
himself discourse on the Evils of Dr.
vorce might do, but his adviser shook his
head; every third woman in the congrega-
ton had been divorced at least once-that
sort of talk wouldn't fill the bill at all. He
offered in its place one on The Evils of
Gambling, but this was pronounced even
worse; all his expected hearers OF both
sexes played bridge during most OF their
spare time. and three-fourths OF the men
put out big money at poker besides. He
had third on The Evils of Drink. but
the wise counsellor turned 1t down likewise:
too many Of the parish every night walked

Judge Parker's Predicament.

Z
II do. not answer for the truth of this
story, but certainly Judge Parker is in
very much the same fix as the young
clergyman; If he says this, he will hurt the
feelings of one set of democrats; If he says
that, he will rub another set the wrong
way; he must be enough of gold demo-
crat to make New Workers forget that he
voted twice for Bryan, and not SO much
Of one that the south and west may also
forget those two votes; he must be enough
Of an anti to please the World, and not
SO much as to displease the Times. He has
tried hard to find a substitute for the
Scribes and Pharisees and, after much
thought picked out Extravaganza.
''The choice is rather ingenious, for econ
omy, in the abstract, pleases everybody.
We are all ready to advise 1t and praise 1t:
the trouble comes In when we try to prac-
tice 1t. A man may tell his wife very posi-
lively the family expenses must be cut
down, but when she asks If he means to
give up tobacco he isn't quite SO clear about
that. So our democratic friends started out
to echo very glibly all the judge had to say
about extravaganza; but since we asked
them just what expenses they would cut
of, would they cut down pensions or the
wages of government laborers? Would they
give up the Panama canal? Or reduce the
navy? Or interrupt all public improve
merits? they seem somehow to have become
strangely silent on the subject
But Theodore Roosevelt is not only
man. ne is also an honest man. ny TINS l
do not mean merely that he has never pick
ed pocket or tapped TILL but his person.
al integrity is unquestioned and he has
made no gain from public trusts. All this
I say cheerfully of his competitor as well;
but by honesty in a public man I mean
something more; mean what the President
himself has called, Militant honesty, the
sort of honesty which leads man to hate
and despise dishonest methods and dishon-
est men, and honesty In other things be-
sides money, honesty which looks on the
theft Of a mans vote as no less crime
than the theft of his purse"
