HAWAIIAN MAIL
MAY BE SAVED

Mail articles lost in the railroad
wreck at Tehama, California, Novem-
Der 1, have been recovered. In this
wreck a quantity of mail from Hawaii,
which arrived at San Francisco on the
America Maru, was destroyed. The
Tacoma Ledger says:
In the list of articles found loose in
the mails by the railway postal clerks
and delivered to the postmaster at San
Francisco are a number of things that
were found under the wrecked cars of
the Southern Pacific train that was
wrecked near Tehama, Cal, on Novem-
Der l. The wreck was caused by a fire
under a trestle, which burned away the
supports, precipitating part of the train
into a gorge, and part of it being con-
sumed by flames. One fireman was
killed and several persons injured.
superintendent H. p. ThraH, of the
Eighth division railway mail service,
has forwarded a list of the articles
found to Postmaster Cromwell. 1t will
be remembered that part of the mail
carried on the train was for Tacoma,
and the registered sacks for this and
other Sound cities We're destroyed in
the fire. The list includes lace curtains,
wooden blankets, shawls, combination
suits of underwear, clothing for chill
dren and bibs for babies, dolls, type
writer ribbons. hosiery, gloves, hand
painted china. pairs of corsets, shoes,
| eyeglass lenses, Chinese phrase books
and drawer springs.

TREES ALONG STREETS.

The Official and Commercial Record
proposes a line of trees through the
center of the Waikiki Road, that would
in no way interfere with traffic and
would produce an artistic effect The
suggestion, including the choice of
trees indigenous to the tropics, is ex-
cellent. In California, between Santa
Clara and San Jose, for a distance of
three miles, for many years there was
a wide avenue, with trees through the
middle that We're planted by the wise
Mission fathers more than a century
ago. 1t is probable that, for the dis
lance, there was hardly finer drive
way in Europe or America. Within
a few years, unitarian and unappreci-
alive supervisors had the trees cut
down and the stumps removed, and
now no one who can help it drives
vandalism destroyed one of the prin-
cipal attractions of the city of San
Jose and has been bitterly resented.
1t is probable that public opinion Will
compel the replanting of the trees.
Nature has done almost everything
to beautify these Islands, but, in that
direction, man has accomplished very
little. The Waikiki Road supplies an
opportunity that, If improved, will lead
to other 5acora tionS that would he
come world famous"

During the conversation Mr.. McKin-

to succeed him, said: I expect to see

States. 1 believe he will be nominated
and elected
Mr.. Mckinley went to Canton the
following day, and the next day there
after he was shot in Buffalo. 1t was his
firm conviction that he would live to
see Hanna president. I know that he
died with that conviction firmly planted
in his mind.
Hanna does not want the office.
That does not mean that he does not
want the nomination. I say he does
not want the office. L came in for u
good deal of criticism when 1 started

Hanna has his interests so arranged
that he can serve in any capacity in
the government. He has his private
business in excellent shape and it can
run without him at any time.
when Mr.. Mckinley was president
he wanted Mr.. Hanna to be his secre-
tary of the treasury, but at that time
the shipping interests of Mr.. Hanna
and his brother were such that he
couldn't accept the place under the law.
These interests are such now that he
can accept any position

SCHOOL PREPARATION.

One of the excuses for the forcing
process of education in some of the To-
cal schools is that college entrance ex-
aminations are now SO high that the
preparatory schools must maintain
scheme of study equal, save in the
classics, to that OF the average Ameri-
can college of a generation ago. The
excuse is given for what it is worth;
but it would be of better value if one
per cent of our school boys and girls
actually went to college and if any
stern necessity existed for sending a
youth there at q certain specified age.
ly wrong to stuff and crowd ninety
nine per cent of school children that
one per cent may meet the college
entrance requirements. Furthermore
the supreme effort to put a boy into a
university at eighteen is not worth
while, considering the mental and
physical danger in over-study, when
the course, by dividing itself through
a longer period, would enable him to
enter at nineteen with better health
and nearer approach to maturity. A
lad of eighteen or even nineteen, turn
ed loose on the free commons of col
lege life, is in danger: but he had bet
ter go at nineteen than eighteen. We
are aware of the modern theory that
he should be ready for business before
twenty-five. but there is no certainty
that the lad, with his mind full of I'M
digested book learning and his system
undermined by over-work, would ever
be as ready for business as the slow
. but sure student who preserves his
health and arrives in college really
knowing something and with enough
maturity to understand that higher
education is not all beer and skittles.,

Comments on Hawaii.

Queen Liliuokalani is promptly on
hand with her little bill for ten million
dollars for the loss OF her crown lands
in Hawaii. But the trouble is, she lost
them to the Dole government before
Uncle Sam took hold. Her argument
that as we paid twenty millions to
Spain for the Philippines, We ought to
be willing to pay her half that for Ha-
waii won't do, because Spain had
something to sell, and she hadn't.
The deficit of Hawaii suggests that
Congress might we'll refuse its assent
to a salary roll which bankrupts the
Islands. a Territorial Legislature
which has no more regard for the
rights and interests of the people than
to pass an appropriation bill which ap-
prcpriates more for salaries alone than
the whole revenues, certainly deserves
to be called down.-SaIt Lake Tribune.

1t is worth noting in connection With
the Colombian question, that as early
as 1885. the United States Senate. by
formal resolution, called upon the Pres
ident to negotiate treaty with New
Granada, fully guaranteeing the protec-
ton of transit on the Isthmus of Pana-
ma by the United States, and that, fol-
lowing this line. the treaty of 1886
negotiated by President Polk, in the
event of disturbances or hostilities OF
the Isthmus conferred upon the Amer
lean Government the right of initiative
in the restoration of peace and order.

STRENGTH OF MILITIA.
Western States Lead in Every Detail
of the important Service.

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 1S.-In
proportion to their population. western
states, with few exceptions, have a
greater militia strength than the more
densely settled states of the east. AS
general rule it may be stated that,
distributed comparatively, the strength
Of the organized militia of the United
States is in inverse ratio to the density
of population.
According to official figures there are
at the present time 16,173,O46 male per-
sons in the United States between the
ages Of IS and 40, and an aggregate or
ganized militia of 1862. which is
equivalent to 70 militiamen to every
1000 of the population. 1t is a notorious
fact that in such populous states as
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana,
Iowa and Missouri the militia is below
the general average. New York, New
Jersey and Maryland are scarcely
above the average.
But when it comes to the west, Ore
gon, South Dakota, Idaho, Wyoming,
Arizona, Oklahoma, North Dakota,
California, Colorado, and even Hawaii,
are above the average.
The District of Columbia has the
strongest proportionate militia in the
United States. 20.5 to each 1000 of the
population of militia age
Oregon has ia men to the 1000 of
male population, while the state of
Washington, according to war depart
ment statistics, has ga men to each
1000.
