It is not unusual for banking insti- tutions in the great cities to entrust mere boys with the handling of large amounts of money outside of the bank walls. as recently happened with unhappy results with a leading New York concern. In this case the boy. who was 19 years old and had been but a year with his employers. had the handling of s200,0U0 in checks and drafts to get certified and cashed at other banks. Boy and all disap- peared. It goes without saying that only men of mature years, settled habits and proved integrity should be trusted with money in large amounts. All criminologists assert that the young man in his teens and early tventies is at a most uncertain and highly dangerous period of moral de- velopment. Then pleasures appeal to him. and then he can be lured by older and less scrupulous minds. A decent sense of responsibility. to say nothing of the property interests at stake, should make bank officials more cautious. The father inducts his son into the responsibilities of his business step by step. Such a thing as a father deliberately putting upon a mere boy the burden of resisting the allurements of life when ample means of dissipation are within grasp is seldom heard of. Employers have less personal interest. but the welfare of society and the integrity of busi- ness as an institution should teach them to put mems business upon the shoulders of men. A boys misstep spells ruin for him and may mean the loss of a good man which he might have become.

a high head and exclaim, Whats the odds?" Time has been when Americans were painfully sensitive as to the attitude of Europe toward this new venture in civilized govern ment. We set out to do better for mankind than Europe has ever done. We had our troubles and fifty years or so ago were not just cocksure that the republic would hold out. It was of consequence then what the for eigners thought of us, our tendencies and institutions. But since we stood the test of titanic civil war and came through the fearful ordeal united and vigorous, no doubt can be had as to our perpetuity. For the rest who cares? This is a govern ment by the people, and, so long as the people stand for what is, it is what they want it to be. So Europe may laugh or sheer or turn the cold shoulder altogether. America is full
 
 grown and can paddle her own canoe. If as individuals we are con- ceited it is on novelty. The Briton swells his chest over the fact that his nations "drumbeat Is heard round the world" the German that his scholars and schools have given the world its philosophy and theology. and the Frenchman points to France as the home of the drama and art. We can make good on our boasts if called upon, but perhaps it is better to let facts talk and save breath. The world is fast finding out how colossal we are. If 1t doesn't go the full length or give the fun measure of appreciation so much the worse for the world. As for England's at titude toward us, 1t is the same to- ward all people. The motto of the English is Were never agin any thing we're in on." Play Englands game and you'r good fellow, but play your own and you're simply ''nawsty," that's all.

The Cuban congress has bill be- fore it to place crude petroleum on the free list for the benefit of the sugar planters. The preamble of the bill sets forth that the Cuban sugar industry requires every assistance that the government can afford to give, and that the cost of production would be perceptibly lessened by the substitution of cheap fuel for the wood and bagasse now used, the bagasse being valuable for the manu- facture of paper. It is predicted that should the bill become law the de- velopment of paper manufacturing from bagasse would follow rapidly.

Louisville.-The unveiling of the statue of stephen Collins Foster, the author of My Old Kentucky Home,"
 which took place on Foster day of home coming week for all Kentuck. fans, was a belated recognition on the part of the citizens of the Blue Grass state of one of its greatest debts of gratitude. The statue, which was made by J. L.

Though Foster has been dead for many years. the song that has made his name immortal has gained wider and wider popularity, and is sung not only in Kentucky, but in every part of the English speaking world.

Prince Henry is a prime favorite with his imperial brother, whose life he saved in 1874 when they were swimming in the Havei, near the so-called marble pal ace. He is a brother-in-lav of the czar. their wives being sisters. and he is a nephew of King Edward of Eng land. In disposition he is pleasant and jovial. He has a great dislike of court etiquette. and possesses a pe- culiar charm and manner.

Gil RV|N WRITES On
CHINESE EXCLUSION

From time to time incidents crop
out to keep us in mind of the existence
of the Exclusion Act probably the
most illiberal, iniquitous and unnatural
law which has been enacted by the
American Government, although some
of the States, in early days, passed
laws against witchcraft, etc, of which
they are not now proud.
=. The intolerance for the expressed
Sentiments of our fellowmen and OF
their bodily presence. which has main
tanned as far back as written records
go, lead us to believe that it is an in
herted idiosyncracy from the progen-
itors of the human race.
In these latter days, when education
is so general, and men have learned
that speaking was invented to con-
ceal thought" 1t is strange that men,
from whom, on account of their edu-
cation and position, more finesse
should be expected, would blurt out
that II wish that all Chinese should
be shut out" This class of men so
weaken their influence on any subject
by giving way TO their innate narrow
ness that a community in which they
live lose all respect for them.
The bigotry and intolerance, which
caused the crucifixion of Christ, who
taught a little different religion from
that which maintained is as dominant
in the man who would assert that "he
wished they should all be shut out"
as it was in the leaders of the Jews
who succeeded in obtaining a death
warrant for the Great Leader, and he
would carry out his ideas just as ruth
lessly If he had the support of his fell
lows.
l know one who has been bounded
by those in temporary authority for
the reason that he dared to use his pen
and voice to shield a Chinaman and
who would have done the same for one
Of any other race who was equally
oppressed. He viii perhaps some day
beg for the opportunity 20 carry a cup
Of water To the man who asserts that
"he wishes he could shut them all
out" II man would shut his fell
lowman out" ON earth, where our days
are but a span, would he not more
so shut him out from th1t Elysum
where he expects 20 spend eternity?

enough 10 see AN sides OF "a subject and

F0RECLOSES

William H. Smith has brought a bill
to foreclose mortgage against Law
renee II. Dee. Frank Hustace and
Nellie f. Hustace. The amount claim
ed is ten thousand six hundred and
eighty and 15-1OO dollars (s1O,6SO.15),

1t is prayed in the petition that a

decreed to be a mortgage. This in
strument conveyed land on the north
west side of Nuuanu Valley for tie
consideration OF one dollar, on Janu-
airy s, 1908 Dee became purchaser of
the same land at sale under execu-
tion on judgment for sS9, 7S1.Sl against
Hustace and others in the famous Ka-
malo Sugar Co. case.
Dee under such title brought suit
against Smith for the land, charging
that the deed from Hustace to Smith
was void as having been made to
hinder, delay and dcfraud the cred
itors of Hustace. Judge Gear. who
tried the case, dismissed the complaint
and adjudged that the Hustace-Smith
deed was bona fde and upon a val
liable consideration. and intended by
both parties thereto tp be a lien upon
the property conveyed for the loan OF
10000 by smith 10 husrce.
