VISITORS SEE
OUR FIREMEN

Only few of the members of the
California editorial party turned up at
the exhibition drill given for their
benefit at the Central Fire Station
Thursday afternoon, these few were
filed with admiration of the feats per-
formed by the fire laddies in showing
what they can do if called upon in an
emergency. The splendid equipment of
the department was first viewed and
admired by the visitors and an alarm
was turned in just to show what was
the ordinary thing when a fire was re-
ported. From the time of the ringing
of the big gong until the men were all
in position on the carts and engines
was just eleven seconds, an exhibition
of speed which impressed the ladies'
among the visitors more especially,
many of them seeing fire company
turning out for the first time.
Then the out of door drill was gone
through, the boys scaling the practice
tower with their scaling ladders, going
through drill with the long extension
ladders, showing how the inmates of
burning buildings are brought down to
safety on ropes and causing the fair
visitors to catch their breath at the
way the firemen threw themselves from
the different windows of the tower into
the life net.
The drills were conducted under the
directions of Assistant Engineer Deer
ing, both he and Chief Thurston receiv-
ing many compliments on the excellent
work done by the men.
''We think we have pretty fine fire
department in Los Angeles observed
Editor Horton, "but we haven't any
thing better than this
Supervisor Lucas was at the drill and
explained many of the fine points of
the exhibition to the ladies. being as
sisted in this by Clarence Macfarlane
and other prominent townsmen.
For the drill Chief Thurston had
brought some of his best men in from
the Palama and Makiki station.

DOWSETT ON
HAWAII AFFAIRS

]. M. Dowsett. q member of the Ha-
waiian Senate, was a passenger on the
liner Siberia. He is on his way to New
Jersey, where he will place in school
his son. Dowsett is largely interested
in the sugar business.
He says that the Industry is thriving
and that prices are good now, although
they have not been satisfactory for
some months past. He says the local
political issues are at present the theme
OF heated discussion in Honolulu, but
that the natives take no interest IN
national politics, for the reason that
they have no vote upon such questions.
The Americans, he says, have sought
to interest the natives in national al
fairs, but with small success The two
parties in local Hawaiian politics are
the Home Rule party, which seeks TO
retain native control of the islands. and
the American party, which includes all
the whites and large proportion Of
natives.
Dowsett says that there is really
little friction between the races. In
his opinion Prince Kuhio, the present
Hawaiian Delegate to the. National Con-
gress, Is certain to be reelected large
ly by the votes of Americans. He be-
longs to the American party in Homo
lulu and to the Republican party In
Washington. He has served two terms.
Dowsett saw the transport Sheridan
and the Pacific Mail liner Manchuria
as they lay on the reefs. He says the
natives-and, in fact, all the residents
of the islands-are terribly distressed
over the liners loss. They We're as
proud of her as though she belonged
to them, and fear she will be replaced
by an inferior vessel.-San Francisco
Chronicle.

INFANT MORTALITY.

The attention of the Town Council at
Johannesburg, Transvaal, was last year
directed to the fact that out of eighty
four infants, who died in December.
forty-four of them had died of dysen-
terry An investigation with view of
tracing the source OF the disease WAS
authorized. Under the best OF condi-
tions attacks of dysentery are very
prevalent among children in warm
weather. but in a large majority OF
cases the lives OF the little ones can
be saved by the use of Chamberlain's
Collie. Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
This remedy always brings prompt re-
lief. and has never been known to fail.

AN ENDLESS
PRAYER CHAIN
cFrom Thursdays Advertiser.)

(From Thursdays Advertiser,)
Editor Advertiser: VIII you favor
me by printing word in reference to
an absurd Endless Prayer Chain" now
flooding Honolulu, as it has already in
a most extraordinary way flooded the
entire United States.
The letter enclosed herewith purports
to have been set forth by Bishop Law
renee OF Massachusetts. In the first
place, anyone who knows Bishop Law
renee knows that he would not set
forth any such prayer. and It seems
to me that people should know at once
on receiving such n letter that none of
our Bishops would have anything to
do with such silly thing and certainly
would be incapable OF calling down a
curse on anyone who would break the
chain or writing the absurdities with
which the letter closes.
Bishop Lawrence has repeatedly, In
the press, denied that he had anything
to do with this chain business but still
the chain goes on to the increase Of
the postal revenue and the annoyance
of untold thousands OF people through
out the land

Fusion in Vermont.

The combining of two weak political
elements is Il device sometimes ad, pied

for "triumpl" to count the cost. This
patura desire may have caused the i'm
polite movement in question. However,
the proceeding is somewha startling
innovation upon the time hohored
method of recognizing, in turn, the
more helpful adherents of the two
historic parties. This method of party
management is faulty in many respects,
hut it certainly makes for harmony.
And an amicable cooperation is an in
dispensable means for the necessary
preservation of the integrity of the OPP
position party, and it is essential to eco
nomical expedition in the transaction
of the public business hy the Legislative
body. There is greater number of
republicans than democrats in Office,

it would be almost impossible to secure
that unity of action in the whole State
that could alone produce the best re.

create a demand for such movement.
which would include drastic treatment
OF the prominent men in the party in

held to blame for past misconduct of
institutions. There are no reasons for

Spirators, each winking at the depreda-
