WHY?

Why should Governor Carter not
have the same right as a private citi
zen, to keep silent or to speak, when
ever and wherever he may elect? We
cannot comprehend any such manner
of dictation in our lovely land of free
dom and liberty.
Whenever Mr.. Carter shall wish to
throw tdown the care of office it will
doubtless find it's way into the pa
pers! The news will be out No
more Carter" the newsboys will cry.
This Territory is not too big ant
the treasury is very small compare,
lively, very small.
We do not belive, for one, in sack.
ing the same, depicting the chest un.
til, so light, a child's foot could kick
it Over-alas! We would wish to see
every employee paid a splendid living
wage; (and every honest laborer OF
whatever even meanest work. but

wife: You know / earn but so mucl

thence, skill and viii, until | can do
better; if, you expend some dollars
a week more than our income, you will
bring misery upon yourself by landing
me in jail, as a gross cheat"
We fan (being obtuse) to See
wherein the Governor is wrong.
Whenever Mr.. Carter will serve no
longer time, let us call for-Judge

BRINGS SORROW HERE

accident, until further adviccs are re-
ceived.
For many years the philanthropy Of
Mr.. Proctor has been largely directed
toward assisting the work of the Epis-
copal church both in the United States
and abroad. His attention was direct
ed toward Hawaii some years ago, and
since that time, until the time of his
death he has manifested a great in
terest in the work here. ST. Elizabeth's
church at ~ King street and Pua lane
was entirely due to his generosity, as
was the maintenance of the extensive
settlement work carried on i'm connec-
ton with it. Much other money he also
furnished for various enterprises of the
church in Honolulu.
Friends of the deceased here surmise
| that if the death was due to his own
hand, that he was probably suffering
from severe melancholy caused by i'll
realth due to his advanced age. The
| 26th of this month Qast Tuesday, was
the anniversary of the death of his
wife, which occurred four years ago.
The old man was pass.o nately devoted
to her, and in her memory was st.
Elizabeths built, the name being sug-
gested from that of his wife.
Shortly before noon today Bishop
Restarick received confirmation of the
death in a cable from the private secrc-
fap # u
not enlighten as regards the cause Of
the death, simply stating that Mr..
Proctor died suddenly yesterday, and
that the funeral will occur tomorrow
afternoon.
| Bishop Restarick cabled to Cooper
Proctor, son of the deceased, and man
ager of the Proctor & Gamble business:
Great grief here. Please write"
William A. Proctor was about rs
years of age. He was the head OF
| the firm of Proctor and Gamble the
manufacturers of Ivory Soap and 9th
er products at Ivorydale, Cincinnati
| Ohio. Mr.. Proctor lived at Glendale
Is miles out of Cincinnati and neal
by him lived three of his married
daughters and his son Cooper Proc
ter the manager of the firm
Mr.. Proctor was born in Cincinnati
He has given generously to the EpiS
copal Church especially in Southern
! Ohio.
Two of his daughters married cler
gymen, one of whom is Dean of the
| Cathedral in Cincinnati
When Bishop Restarick was elected
Mr. Proctor promised to pay the sal
airy and expenses of Deaconess Drant
Some month after the Bishop came tC
Honolulu the work of St. Elizabeth''
was started. AS it grew Mr.. Proctor
increased his gifts. When the time
came for building Mr.. Proctor gave the
money for the land, the buildings anC
the furniture He gave also the LAND
for the lodging house connected will
ST. Elizabeth's.
This lodging house is not a Chart!
but it provides a good home for youni
men connected with the work
Mr.. Proctor also gave the Res
House at WaiahOle. Recently he wa

Some Fast English Trains.

For q really magnificent exhibit of
regularly maintained high-speed serv-
Ice one which provides a decided
public benefit England leads us a few
points; for her populous cities afford a
dense passenger traffic to support such
a service which has no counterparts
in America, except in a few places, re-
marks p. B., Adams in Scribner's
Magazine. To take only one or two
from dozens of examples, the number
of daily trains between London and
emingham (113 miles) over the Lon
N Northwestern, making over Sc
an hour. is seven; between Lon.
and Exeter, over the Great West.
I194 miles,, the number running
u.ate over SIS miles is four. One
>se later trains makes the 119
between London and Bristol in
1inutes, in each direction, every
4 and does this with remarkable

Houdini's Statue of Washington.

house of representatives and resound-
ed to the oratory of Webster, Clay,
Adams, Calhoun and other giants of
the republic, it was generally conced-
ed to be the most beautiful legislative
hall in the world. AS time went on.
however, and repairs became neces-
sary, motives of economy or misguid-
ed judgment, caused some Improve
ments" to be made that did not justi-
fly the name. To undo some of this
work is the object of the present task
for which congress at its last session
provided funds.
Accordingly, for weeks past the
marble figures in statuary hall have
been boxed up and the big apartment
has been filled with scaffolding, while
engaged in restoring this part of the
capitol to the state, even as to details,
originally intended. Incidentally it
may be remarked that there is to be
corresponding removal of the OBJ
noxious paint from the crypt under
the great dome, which was designed
to be the tomb of George Washington,
but was never used for that purpose.
Here also are stately pi1lars-a colon
made of Doric columns with groined
ceiling
But the restoration of the meeting
place of the house Of representatives
during most important period of the
nations history will not end with the
restoration of the pristine glory of the
semicircular walls. Two of the old
stairways which led from the legisIa-
tive hall to what was formerly the
mems gallery and the women's gallery
have been rediscovered and opened,
and the mems gallery will be restored
to the original condition which char
acterized it when more than half a
century ago it was daily crowded with
visitors who gathered to hear the
most memorable debates of the anti
slavery crisis and other exciting peri
DDS. The steps OF this old stairway
are of solid blocks of sandstone and
of rather quaint design, and in each
step, little to the left of the middle,
distinct depression has been made
by the trod of the countless visitors
who passed up and down in the olden
times.
Probably the most interesting
statue in the entire collection in statu-
airy hall is the replica of Houdon's
statue of George Washinton, the orig
inal being in the capitol at Richmond.
Sculptor Houdon was permitted to
make casts and measurements of
Washington's person, and consequent
Iy his sculptured figure depicts the
father of his country exactly as he
was in real life. Great interest also
attaches to the only statue of a wom-
an in this national gallery of celebri-
ties-namely the marble representa-
ton Of Frances E. Willard, presented
a few years since by the state of ILL
nois.

KNOWS BETTER NOW.
Patroln1an Tries to Bar Mail Wagon
from Boulevard But Doesn't.

It was dark, and the mounted Off
Ger who guarded the Capitol avenue
boulevard heard the leisurely hoof-
beats of a horse that tolls, a horse
to whom the chief end of life is not
how fast he can make the westrumits
will pass until he can once more
MUNICH oats in the peace and quiet OF
his stall. That's no bon ton rig.
Here's a fellow has slipped up on me
in the dark to use our beautiful speed
way for plebeian purposes" thought
the patrolman, alert in his intention
to "calI'' the fellow for the indignity.
The Flooding animal with the Workar
day vehicle drew near, and the pa
trolman stepped out in front of it.
"Stop!' he said. The driver stuck
his head out the side and spat non
chalantly Whats up?" he queried.
You'll have to get off the street"
said the copper.
Not just yet I've got another cor
ner to make first. Meantime. unless
you want to be arrested for interior
ing with collection of the United
States mails, get out of the way
The policeman would have argued
the matter, but Collector Glen Abrams
had been in the service of Uncle
Sam long enough not to allow his du-
ties to be interfered with, so the pa
trolman was left to think it over.

The Lives of Fish.

The normal length of life of our com
mon small minnows probably rarely
exceeds four or five years, and may
be much shorter; but there are few
satisfactory observations on this
point. No general rule can be laid
down regarding the age of fishes or
the relation between age and size. It
is known that the salmon of the Pa.
citc coast, which enter the river in
such immense shoals, live to be four
or five years old, and then invariably
die after once laying their eggs. One
japanese fish died when one year old.
On the west coast Of Europe there oc,
ours small fish which is like an an.
nual plant-that is, all the individuals
die each year, and only the eggs. e..
the seed-remain to produce the next
seasons crop.-St. Nicholas.
