of mis- birthday. a late photograph oil
His Majesty. for which the Advertiser
is indebted to Messrs. Hackfeld & Co.
shows him in his old form and prompts
the expectation as we'll as the hope that
his years may be prolonged.
For a long time the Kaiser has peeh
the most conspicuous figure on the con-
tfnent of Europe. No one has occupied
the same line of prominence during MS
reign save his own great subject the
late Prince Bismarck. This is not Whol-
Iv due to the fact that continental Eu-
rome is painfully deficient in great men,
but to real intellectual qualities in the
Kaiser himself. In crowd of blind
men the one-eyed man is King, ana
some may have tried to account foF
the Kaiser on these grounds. But the
ruler of Germany is assurediy two
eyed man, who, in any company of the
great, would be recognized and honor
ed as a leader.
Public opinion never denied the Kali.
ser real ability, but for many years it
was disposed to suspect him of i'm
puisiveness Now and then he did
things to warrant the fear that he was
reckless, as, for instance, in the matter
of the Boer telegram. But it is long
time since his sobriety of judgment
came into dispute. Years and response
bilities have taught him tact, have
broadened his mind, have enabled him
to keep Germany at peace and to vastly
augment her wealth and significance. |
The war lord with a firebrand has not |
materialized; in the place where peo- |
pie were looking for him, one found |
thoughtful statesman, intent upon the I
noblest constructive enterprises The |
admiration felt for him by foreign am |
bassadors, notably by the Hon. Andrew |
d. White, one of Americas few great
ENJOYS, rests upon the cool estimates
of men who are not easily deceived.
Generally speaking, history has meas
ured the greatness of kings by the vic
tories of war and the greatness of rul-
ing queens by the victories of peace.
But this Kaiser, whom men see loom
ing up above the ruck of crowned |
heads, has never fought a battle and
may never do so. But it matters not. |
Civilization begins to see that it is a
greater thing to build a State than
to destroy one; and the Emperor Will
liam, with peaceful Germany as his
pedestal, is not likely to be overshad-
owed in history by any warlike SOW
erefgn of his age or even of his line.

AS TO THE MILITIA.

The militia appropriation bill is COM
ing into view again. Twenty thousand
dollars are wanted, exclusive of the
provision for the band. Since annex
alton the militia has had a great deal
of money for which it has given no
return. Not thing has happened since
the organization of Territorial Govern
ment here to require militia interior
ence; and when there was the expecta-
ton of a crisis on the day of the
plague fire. five years ago, trouble was
prevented, if any was designed, by the
prompt action of citizens and regular
troops
Hawaii, as a Territory, is under the
ps1tection of the United States forces.
TIE action of Colonel Mills in 1899
showed that the Federal Government
will permit no mob violence here.
Should Uncle Sam need volunteers he
would find more serviceable men among
the arms bearing citizens, who have
been used to suppressing revolutions
in Hawaii, than among the perfectly
harmless aggrega ton of lei-crowned
guitarists who constitute the rank and
file of the IN. G."
In the event of a foreign war the de-
fence of Hawaii must rest with the
United States. If help is needed local
volunteer regiments may be formed as
elsewhere. Even in States where they
have a good militia volunteers get the
first call Surely nobody would think
of entrusting the defence of anything.
against hostile regular forces, to mill
tia command.
Should the local authorities hesitate,
out of respect to tradition, to disband
the Territorial regiment, then they
should leave it to depend on the money
it is getting from Washington. It not
only lives on that now but spends part
of its allowance on pretty band instru-
ments.
IL The $4,000 wanted by the militia
ought to go to the anti-mosquito COM
pnlttee, which could make good use of
it.

LIVE ADVERTISING.

If the Territory should consider the
idea of an exhibit at the Lewis &.
Clarke exposition, which will open at
Portland in June, the merits of NOV
ing picture display ought TO appeal to
it. Sending the band, largely at Ore
CONS expense, would be an excellent
idea; and experimenting this undoubted
attraction with fine moving
pictures would be also worth while.
a company on the mainland, COM
from which appeared in the
a short time ago, will do
the Photographic work at a reasonable
price. Everybody is interested in such
pictures; and surely, a display of our
street scenes, Iuaus, band concerts, surf
cane cutting, school recesses,
celebrations, the volcano,
etc., would cause enormous interest. 1t
s conceded in the East that the best
possible advertising is done by NOV
ng pictures.

LARGE AND SMALL FARMING.

the Advertiser sees a chance for the
owners of a few hundred acre tracts
to proftably follow suit. Let the cor
poration show that rubber is all right
and the private farmer will know what
to do.
The Star is forever, and Intentionally,
we think, mixing up the idea of small
farming with truck and chicken farm
ing. The proper classification for Ha-
waiian agriculture is about as follows:
Large farmlng-Sugar plantations
with thousands of acres each.
Small farming-Improved tracts with
from fifty to one thousand acres each.
Dairy farming-As next above.
Truck and chicken fauning-Ln1-
proved tracts with from FIVE to fifty
acres each.
Kitchen farming-One's back yard, or
as much land as one man may care for
in his spare time.
Under this classification the rubber
investment would be one of small
farming. Certainly, its ground plan
doesn't look large in comparison with
$4,000 acre sugar estates.

RUSSIAN OFFICERS j.
FROM PORT ARTHUR

Twenty-six Russian officers from
Port Arthur, who are to be released
on parole, were brought to Nagasak
by transport at a. M on Tuesday
each officer being accompanied by ar
orderly
The necessary quarantine regulation:
were enforced at the quarantine sta
ton at Nagasaki harbor, and at p
m. the party left in steam-launches for
| the Mizunoura Pier, Inasa, the launch
es belonging to the local water police
| harbor Office and fertilization head
| quarters.
! On their arrival at the pier at 2: 80
| the officers were welcomed by the mu-
nicipal delegates and conducted to the
Goshinji temple, which now takes care
of the Russian cemetery at hasa At
the temple four tables were laid and
refreshments and cigarettes were serv-
ed to the Russian officers by japanese
girls. The officers were neatly attired
and Wore their swords, and there was
nothing in their manner that betray-
ed their sufferings in the beleaguered
city.
Colonel Tzrikeakoff, commander of
the Fifth Regiment, who was the SEN
ior officer among the party Delivered an
address on behalf of his fellow officers
to the Japanese delegates, to the fol-
lowing effect:
Our present condition is due to our
defeat. We did not expect this warm
reception and we thank you most heart
lily for it. This single incident suffices
to show that your nation is above the
common standard of the world. I ask
the press representatives here present
to publish to the world that I have
expressed the above in all sincerity"
subsequently the party put up at Mr..
Matsumura's where luncheon was
served.
The Tokyo Asahfs correspondent
subsequently interviewed Colonel Tzri-
keakoff and expressed his admiration
of the gallant defenders of Port Arthur.
The colonel thanked the interviewer
for his compliments. He stated that
he did not know when General Stoessel |
would leave Port Arthur. He would be
accompa MED by his wife and four or
five officers children whose fathers had
been killed. Stoessel himself had no
children. He had been wounded above |
the left ear but the wound had now |
healed. All the members of the party |
had been wounded, some as many as |
four times. The colonel himself had |
been injured in the back and there We're |
casualties even among the priests. Dur |
ing the long siege no soldier or sailor |
who had distinguished himself by val |
liant conduct had received decorations |
from home, the communications be-
tween Port Arthur and Russia being
severed.
The correspondent adds that the po-
lice and gendarmerie at Nagasaki are
On the alert.
1t is stated that General Stoessel,
seven other Russian Generals and four
Admirals have already given their
parole not to take further part in the
present war. They and other officers
will leave DaIny for Nagasaki in a few
lays, and be temporarily quartered at
hasa. before proceeding to Shanghai,

GOVERNMENT REINDEER AT ORT CLARENCE

SEATTLE, Sept. 29.-Whether
the whole Eskimo race of Alaska Is
being save from extinction by the
introduction of Siberian reindeer
by the United States government is
question which is this summer
being extensively investigated by
F. c. Churchill, special agent sent
to Alaska by President Roosevelt.
Upon Mr.. Churchill's report will de-
pend whether the experiment shall
be continued, or whether the gov
eminent shall withdraw it's support
and permit the Eskimo to struggle
along as best he may with what
reindeer the government has al
ready given him.
The most enthusiastic supporters
of the reindeer experiment are John
w. Brady and Sheldon Jackson,
governor of and commissioner of
education for Alaska, respectively
These gentlemen insist that the in
PRODUCTION of the animals is proving
salvation for the Eskimos, being
their only dependable means of Sc
curing a livelihood in the face of a
depicting supply of game and fish.
In support of this theory they point
out that the presence of the rein
deer is Transforming the Eskimos
from a race of nomadic ne'erdo-
wells into a thrifty, BODYBUILDING
and home-loving people. On the
other hand, many practical observ-
ers insist that the experiment has
failed, that the natives do not take
kindly to the animals.
The United States government
has been promoting the Alaska
reindeer experiment for a little
more than 10 years, during which
time it has cost, approximately,
100000. During that time 1880 ami
mails have been imported and 10 ,267
