SOUNDING
THE NATIVES

Sounding the natives II the present
game of the politicians. Giving them
wor6 on the roads or at any place
where the public funds are available. is
another. for the precinct elections are
on now and the man who supplies the
cash, even though ii belongs to the
government, is generally supposed to
have the inside track i'm gaining the
vote OF th Hawaiian citizen.
That the politicians are active, espe-
cially In he shrievalty matter is
shown partit ularly in the valleys. In
Pauoa. Manoi and Kalihi valleys and on
the outskirts these politicians are
making inquiries of the natives as to
where they propose to stand In the
shrievalty fight. So far the natives
talk only of Iaukea and Brown.
Evidently some peculiar arguments
have been made to the natives, for they
are coming around to their haole
friends on the quiet to get little I'M
biased information about the candi-
dates. Here is the way valley Ha-
wsiian made inquiries of haole resi-
dent:
II hear that Brown he know every
thing about police matters. He can
stop everything If he wants, because he
knows ali about everything and his
| men all know these places, too. They
are old I'm the business.
Now perhaps Iaukea would be too
| quiet in his way of being Sheriff.
| Maybe he would be easy with people,
| not like Brown who knows everybody
and everything. Perhaps Iaukea turn
out all policemen and put i'm new men.
What you think?
However, you know, in New York
when man gets elected to Office he
gives the big offices under him to the
men who worked hardest for him. You
| see they do the same in New York
as in Honolulu"
Imagine a native from the valleys
telling the haoles what they do over
in New York. That alone tells the
story of the politicians visit and the
arguments he has used.
| AS to what Iaukea might or might
not do in office is not known. He has
not yet said. positively, that he win
run for Sheriff. If he does, however.
| and is elected, 1t is understood that he
won't make many changes. There are
men on the force, he says, who are
entitled to their places until they do
something which should make their re-
moval necessary for the public good.
There are men on the force who have
done good service. If he has merit
such a man should stay. That is the
rule under which Iaukea would operate
II he became Sheriff.
| On Friday evening the nominees for
precinct officers of the Republican
clubs are to be voted on. An effort
is being made to have the conservative
white element turn out to make use OF
their franchise.
"That editorial in the Advertiser last
week about the duty of the white men
to turn ont to these precinct and other
elections, caught me-" said a College
Hills resident. II went to the nomi-
mating meeting in my precinct last
Friday, and 1t was the first meeting
of the kind have ever attended"

SIR JOSEPH
WARD HERE

Sir Joseph George Ward. the new
Premier OF New Zealand, accompanied
by Lady Ward. daughter and son. is
passenger on the Sierra homeward
bound to assume the duties of his Of
flee. He is occupying especially pre-
pared apartments on the Sierra and
the company is according him every
courtesy.
Sir Joseph left New Zealand on Feb
ruary IL to attend the Worlds Postal
Congress at Rome. At that time he
occupied the manifold positions of Min
lister OF Railways. Colonial Secretary.
Postmaster General. Minister OF In
dustries, Minister of Commerce and
Minister of Public Health
Since he left home the new Premier
has made an extended tour of Europe,
where he has spent much time in
looking into the systems of wireless
telegraphy. Sir Joseph was placed in
his new position by the unanimous vote
of the Liberal party.
A dispatch from Christchurch, n. r.,
dated July 3, indicates that the New
Zealanders are disturbed lest Sir Jo-
seph, while in the United States.
should make some agreement on a
trade reciprocity basis which they
claim will be likely to inJure New Zea-
land manufacturers and hamper their
| freedom.
Sir Joseph says his party has been
| In power for fifteen years, during
| which time the country mas been con-
stantly improving. He makes the fol-
lowing statement about his country:
The progressive acts" are mainly
responsible for this Improvement. In
these acts are. included the department
for advancing money to settlers. AL
ready more than s25,000,00 has been
lent and no losses have so far been
made. Then there Is the "old age PEN
sion fund" This has proven to be a
great success, providing as 1t does for
men and women over IS years OF age
who have become incapacitated from
work, by allowing them 10 shilllngs a
week.
One great feature of our Government
Is what is called the system of arbi-
tration. This meets the requirements
of the workers as well as the employers
and has been one of the most benefi-
cial acts ever known in our country.
Our population now is 100000 whites,
| 40. 900 Maoris and 10000 island people.
We are the wealthiest people per
capita In the world We have on de-
post in the savings banks the sum OF
| S135, 900, 1000.
All the railroads are owned by the
State. Some the colonies built. and
others we acquired. We have also an
arbitration court which fixes the wages
for everything.
Then we have the power to take
| landed estate at the taxed valuation.
This is largely helpful in the public
progress. The lands become crown
lands and are leased to settlers II
amounts of 100 acres up and not tC
| exceed $40 acres. The leases are made
/ on the basis of the tenant paying al
| the rate of 5 per cent. per annum on the
| valuation of the land and the improve
ments thereon.
| We ship large amounts of kauri gum
and wool to America and l think these
| should be duty free and could be ex-
| changed for canned salmon and paper
which we get from you.

NEED NEW
HIGH SCHOOL

1t is probable that Honolulu will
have a new high school, and that the
present high school building, at the old
Queen Emma place, will be turned into
a central grammar school
There are, approximately, forty.fvc
hundred school children in Honolulu.
with accommodations for possibly lit
tie over four thousand. That is to say.
there are approximately forty-fve hun
dred children in attendance on the pub
lie schools--or there were, when schools
closed for the summer vacation. OF
course, when the schools open in Sep
TENDER, the number of children in the
schools will be largely increased. The
attendance always increases at the
opening of each term. And the accom-
modations are no greater.
In fact, it has been patent to the
school authorities for a long time past
there was a growing need for school
accommodations And, to meet this
need in part, Superintendent Babbitt
has plan that is now under grave con-
sideration in the department. This is
to secure a site in some central loca-
tion and erect thereon high school
building, fitted with all the appliances
needed for such a structure-a build
ing of from six to ten rooms, say, with
| accommodations for the commercial
| branches. When this is finished, the
present high school building, on Emma
street, will be turned into kind of
central grammar school. There are
eight hundred scholars in that school
now.
Every school in Honolulu, as matters
| stand, is overcrowded. 1t will afford
partial relief to this condition if the
Kalihiwaena school is built, but the re-
lief will be only partial. Besides that
it is recognized principle, in school
construction, to build for the future
Honolulu is growing, and the schools
will be more crowded before there is
any decrease in attendance-and this
in spite of the fact that the private
schools draw off a large number OF
scholars. If it were not for the private
schools, the public schools would be al
| together inadequate.
Of course the matter of the construc
tion of the new high school will come
up to the Legislature, but it is moi
thought that there will be much diff
Guilty in securing an appropriation
This next Legislature, if it is the kind
of body that it is hoped to elect, will
be expected to do justice to the public
schools-in the matter of salaries fol
teachers, in making liberal appropria
tions for running expenses, and in pro
viding money for needed buildings
The people of Hawaii have learned the
lesson, it is thought, that the last place
in which to economic is the schools.

EARTHQUAKE SHOCKS
IN TnG PHILIPPINES

The Manila Times of June 20 reports
Between the hours OF seven o'clock
last night and ten o'clock this morn
ing Manila was visited by number
of earthquakes. none of which were
severe enough to cause any damage.
The most perceptible shocks were felt
shortly before eight o'clock last night.
Severe shocks have been felt In the
northern portions of the island of

THE HENS ARE ALL

BALTIMORE (Md), July S.-John
G. Herman has organized the chickens
in the neighborhood of Wesley Episco-
pal church near Sykesville, Carroll
county, Nd, into missionary society
to raise funds to aid the church. Each
hen Is LAY" member, so to speak, and
the farmers of the neighborhood agree
to turn over to the church every egg
the hens lay on Sundays. These eggs
are to be taken to the church each
Sunday afternoon at the hour of the
Epw orth League meeting and placed
in basket, which will be situated at
one side of the pulpit.
Herman expects to realize cents on
each egg, no matter what the market
price is. Thus far the results have
been more than satisfactory.

Twenty to Nothing

The following, where a moral
is clearly shown, is taken from
an exchanges: Recently a church
congregation in a little Kansas
town built a new church. To pay
for it they were obliged to call on
the merchants of the community
for donations. The merchants
responded literally and $500 was
raised from this source. The
last man asked to subscribe was
John Smith, a jeweler. I will
give you 500 if you will let me add
something to the subscription
list" he said. The permission
was accorded him, and he wrote
at the foot Of the list:
John Smith,, Jeweler $40 90
Sears, Roebuck & Co. 90 90
Montgomery Ward & Go. 90 90
The church saw the point when
the minister read from the pulpit

the church, there have been no
mail orders sent out from that
