THE PLIGHT OF RUSSIA.

Russia wants to make peace with
Japan but fears the ridicule Of Europe.
It is difficult to see, however, that she
can gain the respect OF Europe by con-
tinuing a hopeless fight and exposing
herself to needless humiIiations. Japan
now commands both sea and land.
Rodjestvensky admits that he cannot
challenge her ocean supremacy and
Kuropatkin, driven $50 miles from his
first stand, has all he can do to keep
from being pushed further back and
may, under the pressure of Oyama' s
reenforcements, be hurled from his
foothold almost without warning.
Japan can keep more troops in Man
churia than Russia because she can
feed more; and her people are united
in their support of the war while those
o. Russia are in a revolutionary mood.
In brief Russia is beaten and had bet
ter admit it with what grace she can
summon. The jeers of Europe ought
to be easier to bear than the misery
OF successive defeats, the groans of
unhappy subjects and the growing
menace of an Instruction.

WANTS AN
ARBOR DAY
Carter Thinks Children
Should be Taught to
Plant Trees.

1T is long game but a dead sure
winner
Get the children interested in tree
planting" said Governor Carter yes
terday. Then there will be trees
planted"
The Governor was considering the
advisability of having an Arbor Day
in Hawaii as they have in the main
is q movement that has spread very
largely, ard one from which great good
/ has resulted, not only in the arid states
but in older communities where they
have native forests. There cannot be
too many trees planted in any coun-
| try, a fact which the men who think
the longest for the future all realize.
Governor Carter was looking over the
list of public holidays made by law,
and trying to fix in his mind upon
which day would be the best for an
Arbor Day. At first he was inclined
to select a day in spring, as they do
on the mainland where the spring is
the growing time. He had a prefer
ence then, for Kamehameha Day, June
II thinking that the memory of the
old King could not find a better way
OF perpetuation than in the planting
of trees. But he happened to think
that perhaps the autumn would be bet
ter, as giving the newly planted trees
the benefit of the winter rains; and
then it occurred to him that the third |
Saturday in September, which is Re |
gatta Day and a public holiday, would |!
be the proper date
THE children can plant trees while |
the oarsmen are rowing" said the |
Governor. There are a lot of public |
SPIRITED men in this Territory who |
would take up this matter if it were
properly placed before them. I will be
one to offer 500 year to be given in
prizes of, say five dollars each, to the
twenty school children who can show
the highest number of trees planted
by them during the year and still grow
ing. and giving promise of future
growth on the day that the prizes are
to be distributed. The winner must
show not only that he has planted the
most trees during the year. but that
he has watered them and cared for
them and seen that they have had
chance to grow. 1t will not matter
where the trees are planted, at home,
beside a road, or in the public domain.
They must be tended and cared for, II
and must be growing. It would be well
to make this a permanent thing, and
Of course no child could count in his
score trees planted in prior year.
ut seems to me that if we could get
4 fund sufficient to offer five dollar
prize to be won in every school in the
Territory it would be the Inauguration
u movement that would have far
'eaching consequences for good. Trees
nave value of themselves to the land,
and it is 2 good thing to interest the
little folks in their planting and cul-
ure. If this generation will not be

UNCLE SAM
HAS CHOICE

I'VE are not offering for sale one
of any of the islands without the con-
sent of the United States authorities, :"
said Land Commissioner Pratt yester
day. THAT is to say, before any piece
of land abutting on the sea is put up
for sale, a consultation is had with
the local Federal officials as to wheth-
er that particular piece may be needed
for coast defense or lighthouse pur-
poses.
I'VE do not know what the plans of
the War Department or the Lighthouse
Board may be, but they know. And
they do not tell US. But if a piece of
land abutting on the sea is wanted, We
first submit the proposition to the Fed
eral people before we put it up at auc>
ton. If they ask that it be reserved
for them, then it is not sold
LAS a general proposition, they want
only a strip about one hundred feet
wide along the seashore, but they can
have whatever they want. Only the
ether day 1 had a piece of land on ka-
uai to put up for SALE land abutting
CT the sea, and I sent word to the local
lighthouse people before the sale was
made. They sent man to examine the
land. and reported to me that it was
not wanted for any of their purposes.
And then the sale was made"
1t would seem, from the talk of the
; Commissioner, that the projects of the
/ United States government for the fu-
| ture of Hawaii, both with regard to
coast defense and lighthouse building
are much larger than has heretofore
been publicly indicated. In fact the
government is not only looking out for
sites for Notifications on Oahu, but has
in mind also eligible places to place
guns on all the islands. And that is
proper forethought, considering the
large commerce that viii core this
way after the completion of the Pen
anna canal. The pathway of trade is
the war path of the nations.
1t follows, of course when the is
lands are fortified and trade is coming
this way. that the island coasts must
be marked by many beacons to guide
the ships. And among the first of
these that will probably be built will
be the lighthouse on Makapuu Point
where land has already been reserved
for the purpose.

The Bulletins opinion OF small farm
ing in Hawaii, before the Advertiser
made special advocacy of it, was as
follows. We quote from the issue of
October 16, 1902:
Director Jared G. Smith of the Fed
eral Experiment Station says that Ha-
wall can, If it will, supply it's own
market with beef and dairy products.
And as the people become better ac-
quainted with the valuable work being
done under the supervision OF Mr..
Smith, the Bulletin believes they will
follow the examples set in the States
and Territories and that it will be done.
They will indeed go further. With the
assistance given by the experiments of
the station, it will be found possible to
combat the pests that attack farm
products and in this way enable the
small farmer to supply the local de-
mand for vegetables and many fruits
that arc now obtained in the mainland
markets.
That is SO true and so sensible as to
promote inquiry as to how it ever took
shape in the outlet intellectuaIities of
the vealy Bulletin. 1t really ought to
be Dreaded.

SHERIFF ANDREWS.

There are many men who can fill the
position of Sheriff of Hawaii. and fill
it well; but there Will be no man to
occupy the position with an eye moro
single to the public interests.
Lorrin A. Andrews has not a dis
tonest hair in his head, nor in the sat
lrnalia of official embezzlement ana
corruption which recently swept over
the Territory, did dirty dollar stick
to his palm. He is man of generous
impulses, good executive ability, in
tense energy, quick judgment and cares
little for the opinions of others when
he believes himself to be right.
Such a man usually creates enemies.
The chief of police or chief executive
OF any State, Territory or city who
does not make enemies would not be
worth rap.
Mr.. Andrews will carry into private
life the esteem and friendship of the
best people of Hawaii.

COUNTY ACT COMMISSIONERS.

| In view Of the increased expenditure
of public money and the consequently
increased taxation likely to follow up
on the adoption of even he mi;dest
modification of a county government
system. the failure of the County Act
Commissioners to reach an agreement
in time for the forthcoming meeting of
the legislature might not be regarded
by all the citizens of Hawaii as az
irreparable misfortune. Certainly th@
commission is riding to a fall, if any
like body eve was. There are two
elements IN it, and they are absolutely
irreconcilable. The result of this will
not be that no county bill at all will
be reported. Rather, it will be that the
commission will submit two bills. at
least, and then it will be UP to the
legislature to select the one that is
least mischievous.
The presumption is that the legisla-
ture will do the best that 1t can for
the Territory, but there are indications
that neither bill presented will lack
ardent partisans who will do their ut
most to secure its passage. And the |
fight that is now waged in the small /!
way will be carried to the wider legis- |
lative field, with the friends of the |
various acts lobbying to secure their |
passage. In this view it is just posi-
BILE that the legislature may become
1ead-Iocked also-and, if it does, the
adoption of county government win
once more be postponed. Probably it
s inevitable, in the end, but the peo-

holtz. the successful Kona farmer
throws . bright sidelight on the
fraudulent aspects OF the Pinkhan re-
mort. Mr.. Buchholtz. owing to his
AGRICULTURAL Industry and knowledge
has made diversified farming profta-
bic. Mr.. Pinkham, not realizing this
sent hin, q circular of inquiry, count
ing. No doubt, on a melancholy re-
sponse. Instead of that he got start
ling proof of the complete success of
both the small and the truck farm in
dustry. whereupon the Governor s
trusted Investigator sent the report
hack to Mr.. Buchholtz saying that
these statistics WE'RE NOT WHAT
HE WANTED AT ALL. The same
bright light then dawned upon MI.
Buchho1tz. which is now dawning up
on the public.
Pinkham is full of tricks. Not long
ago he disputed Byron O. Clark about
the excellent showing of the coffee
grove at Nakaha. Pinkham said he
knew all about that enterprise as ne
had lost $500J of his own money in 1t.
Mr.. Clark made inquiry and found that
Pinkham had never been in Makaha
coffee at all but had sunk $4,000 for the
planters in water-right option on the
lands where the coffee was fourishing.
His $4,000 machine might have been
pninvented but his $4,000 coffee facts
were not.
By the time they get through with !
him the planters will not have much |
reason to be proud of Pinkham. He |
went out under instructions to make
privs tie report on the labor conditions
of Hawaii which was well enough.
Nobody would have interfered with
that least of all with any proposal to
bring in white mechanics or even &c.
900 Chinese field hands. But Pinkkam,
hoping to ingratiate himself with
small radical element among the plant
ers and desiring also to oppose any
thing the Advertiser favored, went
further and attacked the agricultural
industries of the unincorporated white
man. In his malevolent way he tried
to do his best to hinder the develop
ment of Hawaii along traditional
American lines" The result is that he
awoke elements of opposition which
are, by far. the most powerful in their
influence upon Congress. If the plant
ers fail of getting their 10000 Chinese,
it will be because of Pinkham's utterly
gratuitous attempt to undo the white
farmer and to keep him from intro .
ducing his industry and his civiliza ton /
here. Every American in the United
States, who hears of this proposition
will resent it,; and Congress is much
quicker to take it's inspiration from
the farming interest than from any Y
other one that is known to the polls.
The Advertiser has already urged the
La Dor unions to throw Pinkham over
board. He is a Jonah whom the whale
is waiting for and whom it would be i
quick to throw UP on some distant L
beach. The advice to the unions Is :
quite as applicable to the Governor,
who ought to know by this time that e
Pinkham's place in his Pacific Club '
cabinet could just as well be taken by !
a bad smell. %

"MAN BEHIND THE STARS"
Clyde Fitch's UnexampIed Success as
Maker of Actresses.

OF all dramatists clyde Fitch most
truly deserves the title of the man
behind the stars He is the maker Of
actresses, Pinero and others have
helped to make players in the maxi
ing of themselves, but Fitch has made
it his speciality to coax out the very
best in an actress, so that she may be-
come, in the public mind, worthy of
the rather meaningless distinction of
being a STAR Fitch's plays, though
usually successful, do not often bring
great financial reward to their pro-
ducers. And not only do many of
these dramas make less money on their
tours than far less meritOriOus plays,
but Fitch's contracts are so one sided
that he pockets every week large sums
of money when his managers are, in
many cases, losing on the venture.
But managers clamor for. the chance
to lose money that way. The reason
is simple. Clyde Fitch makes stars.
He not only takes hold of new act
ress and utilities all the ability she
has, and develops it by his own snrewd
insight and experience, but he actual
ly infuses into her some of his own
instinct.
Having thus spread the idea that
Miss Blank is something like a genius,
the astute manager turns from Fitch
to a dramatist whose reputation is
slight enough that he is glad to take
half as much pay for his work, and
does not make such demands in his
contract as Fitch, who habitually
stipulates for complete control of the
designing of all the scenery and the
engaging of all the actors. Fitch
