THE MONEY POSITION.
Communicated

The journey of Treasurer Campbell
to secure approval by the President of
the $280,000 loan authorized by the
last legislature would tend to confirm
the statement by Mr.. Reidford in Sun
day s Advertiser that the dulness of
real estate business in Honolulu is
due to there being no money in the
city.
As matter of fact the opposite is
the case and the fnanciers abroad will
be apt to look askance upon the repre-
sentative of a government seeking a
loan of a paltry sum like that named.
Dividends are being paid by some of
the corporations monthly and in most
instances it is to persons who imme-
diately seek investments.
Possibly the idea of scarcity of
money in the city emanates from the
policy adopted by the banks not to
make loans on real estate. A dozen
years ago, and less, this character of
security was looked upon as double
gilt-edge but it has decreased in value
as a means for individuals to raise
money through overproduetion on one
hand and the exodus of mechanics, the
true middle class, on the other.
A number of years ago there arrived
here two expert real estate men who
Immediately began to develop outside
property and in-town-rent-payers soon
blossomed as living in their own homes.
In many instances their town homes
were blanketed and the banks were
mortgage laden to the guards. The
success of the pioneer real estate boom
ers encouraged others and more out
of town sections of real estate were
exploited, homes were built, mortgaged
and in many instances sold under fore
closure. The banks still hold mort
cages on some of this real estate. but
so deprecated IS it in value that to
offer it at public auction would only
involve a greater loss. There is no
demand for real estate because the mid
die class men who would buy homes
are not here nor will they come until
there is an enterprise begun that will
create a greater demand for that class
of labor and less for the Asiatics who
are, since the ranks of the white
mechanics are depleted, asking higher
wages than ever. The banks have the
money, possibly greater reserves than
the law of banking, or the land, war
rants their keeping, but banks have
gone out of the real estate business
to remain until there is a demand for
property and its value as security for
loans is restored to the position it oc-
cupied before the boom.

Immediately locate his headquarters
back in the police station. The plan
is for Judge Andrade to shift his books
and belongings into an office in the po-

to take the Office vacated by him. Then
Brown would move into the clerks Of

This plan is not relished by those in
charge now at the police station and
because of it more objections have been
raised to the appointment than for any
other one reason.
None of the prosecuting attorneys
have so far had offices at the station,
having been located in the county Of
fees near the Office of their chief.

the people in general? Do you think it
would be favorable TO ALA
Mr. Cathcart assured the Sheriff
that it was not matter of politics
merely an appointment which he
| thought would be a good one. In an
| swer to a question as to whether Mr.
| Brown would work in harmony with
his (Iaukea 81 administration, Mr..
Cathcart replied that he was certain
of it, as the success of his own adj
ministration as County Attorney. de-
! pended upon the success of the attor-
ney in the police court. He added
further that ii cases were well pre-
| scented in the lower court, so much
the better for such cases that came to
the higher courts. Mr.. Cathcart said
he thought Mr. Brown could be de-
pended upon to give faithful service.
The Sheriff then said, OF course, under
any circumstances, Mr.. Brown would
be responsible to Mr.. Cathcart, as Mr..
Brown would be an appointee of Mr..
Cathcart, and not of the police depart
ment.
1.-The Sheriff, in my opinion, was non
committal throughout the interview
Mr.. Cathcart was thanked for his cour-
tesy In coming to the Sheriff and ac-
quainting him with his determination
to appoint Mr.. Brown, and at the con-
clusion of the interview repeated his
statement that if, under the circum-
stances, Mr.. Brown was appointed, he
would do his part in continuing the
successful prosecution of cases, Just
as had been done during the time when
Mr.. Andrade held the Office of prose-
cutting attorney.
Personally, added that Mr.. Brown
certainly did know the routine of the
police court work, and if he was APP
pointed [ would take pleasure in work
ing with him for successful prosecu-
ton of all our cases, as | have done in
the past with Mr.. Andrade.
ION leaving the ofhce, Mr.. Cathcart |
asked us to consider the interview as /

he would not have appointed 1dr. /
Brown if either the Sheriff or myself I
had objected, / desire to state that /, |
at least, noticed that Mr.. Cathcart |
was anxious to have us approve of his |
appointment. I do not be- /
lieve that either OF us exactly objected I
to Mr.. Brown, or exactly approved of
The appointment, the Sheriff taking the
position that the appointment and its
results rested with Mr. Cathcart and
not the police department, and that
the responsibility rested entirely with
he County Attorney. To this state
nent, or approval if by a stretch it
night be so termed, Mr.. Cathcart as

Hollands Future.

The question of the future Of the
Netherlands has been revived of late
in various forms, and the destiny of
the two countries coming under that
title seems to be involved in the. des-
tiny OF one Of them-that is, Holland,
Whoever holds Holland in any new ar.
rangement of the Low Countries holds
Belgium. Since France and England
commended a century and more ago
Germany has come upon the field as
a great power, and both England and
France would be affected should the
Germans control Holland It is said
In Europe that the Dutch are at pres.
ent inclined toward allegiance to some
great empire rather than have their
country remain a small and inconsid.
cradle state. On this point the Lon.
don Saturday Review says:
We are too ready to judge Of modern
HOLLAND by her past. Today she is large.
~ nation Of ease loving, well to dc
bourgeois. The upper classes draw large
incomes from colonies which they do not
govern with any special felicity In the
event Of failure of heirs to the house OF
orange one great incentive Of patriotism
would vanish. There a very nice prob.
lem arises. In the case Of a voluntary
incorporation of Holland with the Ger.
man empire would any other nation
claim the right to interfere? The posi-
olllty OF the seizure Of Holland by force
may be eliminated. Such step would
not only excuse, but oblige outside inter
terence. But could France or England
interfere to prevent Dutchmen from do
ing the best for themselves or what the
majority thought the best?
The Review suggests that Holland
and Belgium may reunite and face the
future together. But it also afirms
that both countries have of late be-
come Germanized to a considerable
extent-that is to say, the official
classes of Belgium and the CONNER
cla1 classes Of Holland. This authority
holds that the possession of Holland
by Germany would result in the alb
sorption of Belgium, whether the Bel
gians resisted or not.

Doctrine From the Pulpit.
= 4 recent address to the student


IN recent address to the students OF
a divinity school the lecturer warned
the candidates for the ministry not to
be "misled by rumor that. the con-
gregation is weary Of doctrinal ser
MONS He added that the reason why
lawyers, doctors, teachers, writer's and
men ct affairs whose business demands
more than routine use of the intellec-
tual powers often seem so benevolent
~ Indifferent to the church is to be
found in part in the decay Of the doc
trinal sermon
They are interested in religion. Every
man who is really educated is. But
because OF their constant use Of their
reasoning powers they want reasons
for what they are asked to believe. All
their mental habits of life deter them
from accepting unsupported assertions
They do not care for merely dogmatic
sermons. They cannot be led to active
belief merely because some other man
up in a pulpit, commonly Of fewer
years, less experience and smaller
learning, save in one special field, than
they possess, tells them they should so
believe.
The minister is assumed to be a stu
dent of doctrine. His education is sup
posed to have trained him in research
OF the documents and evidence of re-
liglon, natural and revealed, and to
have equipped him with ability to say
what this evidence is and what it
means to those trained to weigh it.
When he breaches on the lines Of his
special training he is bound to preach
doctrinal sermons.
And if to mistaken and unshakable
faith the preacher add ability to give
reasons which appeal to intelligence for
his faith he will never lack intelligent
and educated men as hearers. He gives
them what they want-the reasons of a
trained reasoner on the points at issue
for the faith they have or are seeking.
Moreover, such sermons may be
made interesting to the general con.
gregation. That department Of church
history which treats Of the evolution
Of doctrine is a rich field to draw
upon for illustration and proof. In
fact, in this domain lies about all that
Is personal and vivifying in. the life OF
the church on earth.
