COOPER ON
KOOLAU ROAD

There was a long consultation be-
tween Acting Governor Atkinson ana
w r. Castle, head of the proposed
koolau railway. yesterday afternoon,
at the conclusion of which. although
the Acting Governor had not signed the
charter for the proposed road, he
expressed himself as friendly to the
project and inclined to do the fair
thing in relation to it. f
A little earlier in the day Superin-
tendent OF Public Works Holloway,
who was asked some time ago to grant
rights OF way for the proposed line over
some government lands, said that he
would notify the incorporators of the
proposed line that the matter must be
carried to the Supreme Court on an
agreed statement of facts to get
decision.
1t is thought that Mr.. Holloway is
likewise friendly to the project. the
question being merely upon his legal
right as successor to the Minister of
the Interior to grant the rights of way
asked for. The suit will be an entire-
ly friendly one. N

tie said last night, 81 am in
clined to think that Governor Atkin-
son sees the benefit that the road
would work to the Koolau side of the
island. In our discussion OF the prof.
ect today he asked me why such wide
powers had been asked for in the char
ter. l told him that 1t was not only
our purpose to build a railway, but
that we wanted to be in n position to
handle the freight and dispose OF it.
"The Kahuko plantation company
had intended to build line of this
kind but found that they could not
handle II under their charter. We may
want to build a cannery to put up
or a sugar mill to handle
the cane that may be grown along the
line, and we have sought to make our
comprehensive enough to take
in all these things. There can be no
doubt that the road would be a great
thing for the other side of the island.
There have already been applications
for cane planting contracts along tie
line, and the whole country
has begun to look up.

will come from the proposed road, and

NLAU[A ONE OF
WORLDS WONDERS

"The volcano of Kilauea is one of
the greatest wonders in the world"
+. Milo Palma, the English trav.
eler who has been stopping at the Mo-
ana Hotel for month and who de-
parted on the Manuka yesterday for
Victoria, b. c., makes the declaration
that Kilauea has not its peer on earth
81 have seen what are considered
the wonders of the world-that is,
most of them-and have inspected as
many volcanoes as l could find access.
ible, he continued, "but none of
them have the fascination of Kilauea.
Vesuvius is grand volcano, but when
it is active you cannot approach it,
and when it is inactive it is filed with
steam and you can see nothing.
81 spent hours at the edge Of the
crater of Kilauea once remaining there
from p. IN. until a. m. the next
day. There was a mysterious power
in the scene which seemed to hold me
spellbound at the rim, gazing down at
the fiery lake.
81 found the Hawaiian Islands far
more interesting than 1 had anticipat
ed. In fact ] have been so much i'm
pressed with their beauty, that / am
already planning to come back here,
and that is something ! do not ordina-
rily do"
Mr.. Palma goes to Victoria and will
then make leisurely trip across the
Canadian continent, and from Halifax
will go to New York, taking steamer
at that port for South America. He
will travel in every Latin Republic
and one of his feats will be to scale
the highest summit of the Andes.

CARDS fascinating romance, "King
solomon's Mines" may be surprised
gether mythical, for Mr.. Palma has
visited them. In the ruins of the tenn
ple-fortress at Zimbabbi, Rhodesia,
South Africa, scientists have found
abundant proof that thousands Of
years ago gold was dug there which
went to glorify the court of King
Solomon. Mr. Palma carries with him
many valuables relics from excava-
tions which he personally made at the
ruins. This was before the British
government took the excavations in
hand and stopped private enterprise.
Mr.. Palma has two walls filed with
small gold beads, pieces of beaten gold,
sticks used in moulding the beads and
spiral ornaments. The relics are black
ened with time but each shows some
skill in fashioning.
One relic Mr.. Palma prizes above all.
This is plate of beaten gold used,
undoubtedly, AS neck ornament. At
tached to it is finely wrought gold
chain in spiral form.
Another beautiful specimen carried
by Mr.. Palma tells of trip to the

Ladies and Gentlemen need

Jackson. Ladies and Gentlemen need we fear?
 Need we fear for our future, when millions of the brightest children in the world are being daily educated Tn the principles of freedom and good gov ernment, in the best Public Schools on the face of the earth?
 As the school is today, so will be the government of the future. Let us see to it that our schools are made the cradle of liberty and the nursery of s.atesmanship and pure politics. Let the children be taught that when they reach the age of citizenship, on them will rest the responsibility for the per petuation of the ideals for which their fathers and grandfathers fought. Let them know that it is the duty of every citizen to take an active part in all the affairs of government, and that on them will rest the responsibility for any fail ure.
 The bitterness engendered by the civil war is now happily over. The end was near when old Joe Wheeler, wear ing the epauets of Major General in the army of the Union, led the sons of New England and the sons of Georgia and South Carolina to victory in Cuba. Then I said, Thank God, the Civil War is at last at an end.
 But not quite.
 It remained for this suspicious day, May 3Oth, 1905, to witness the disap- pearance of the last vestige of section al hatred. Today the survivors of the Grand Army of the Union joins with the survivors of the Grand Army of the Confectionery in decorating with beautiful flowers, the graves of those who fell while fighting for a united country, and those who fell fighting for the cause that was lost.

FELLOW CETIZENS AND COMRADES OF
 THE GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUBLIC:
 My name was not placed upon the program today on account of any abili- ty l might be supposed to possess either to entertain or instruct you.
 appear before you simply as rep resentative of that grand army of men now fast disappearing from the field of human activity, who had the glorious privilege of participating in our great struggle for National Life from 1861 to 1865. It was for the preservation of she Union of the States, for the maintaining and promoting ideals of Humanity and Freedom, of Justice and Equality among the people that the men of '61 willingly gave up their lives.
 The men who died upon the battle. field to make this government reali- zation of the ideals upon which it was founded are an immortal example for future generations.
 The work of Americanism, begun when our forefathers landed upon Plymouth Rock, and which was strug- gled for in the battles of the Revolu- tion, is never finally accomplished. It can never stop.
 The accomplishments of one genera tion are but stages in our march on ward to higher and nobler ideals. This progress goes on unceasingly, from father to son and from generation to generation every step is opening up new possibilities to be realized.
 This is what is strongly impressed upon every mind on Memorial Day. As in the past men have made every sacrifice, endured every hardship, suf- fered every pain, even death itself for what Americanism meant to them, so must every American do in the future for what Americanism may then mean.
 The American of the future may hold firmly to all his fathers have won for him, and, like them, move steadfastly forward to higher aims, to grander ac- hievement.
 No matter what the cost, America must be kept in the lead of the world iu human progress, as she has led the world for the past POO years.
 Every man who claims to be an Am erican must bravely and unselfishly bear his full share of the burden, and assume his full measure of tho respon- sibility.
 These my friends are some of the lessons which Memorial Day teaches us. Let us see to it they are not for gotten.
 Ladies and Gentlemen; We need have no fear but that our country will con- tinue on it's onward march to higher hopes and loftier ideals, as long as the sons and grandsons of the men of '61 are in the forefront.
 These men will not part lightly from this grand heritage of liberty and love of justice and equality.
 The croakings of the pessimist, who can see nothing but ruin in our glori- ous march to better conditions, and lasting peace, will be forever silenced by our nearer approach to the fulfill ment of our higher ideals.
 My friends, ask you if country need have any fear for it's future, which can put forth from the ranks of it's common people in one generation, and at one supreme crisis in it's history, a Lincoln, a Grant and Lee, Sherman and Johnson, Thomas and Long
