RECEPTION To
VISITING CLERGY
Large Gathering of Church
People at Hawaiian
Hotel.

The reception to the Bishop and Wis
lifting clergy of the Protestant Episcopal
church at the Hawaiian Hotel last
evening, the last event of Convocation
week, was very largely attended and
was thoroughly enjoyable. The grounds
were brilliantly lighted up and gave
very animated appearance. The Ha-
waiian band was in attendance and
played an excellent program.
The reception was from eight o'clock
to 1920. The guests were received on
the Waikiki lanai. The receiving par
ty consisted of the Princess Kalaniana-
ole, Bishop and Mrs Restarick, and
DR.. and Mrs. Alsop. Canon Mackin-
tosh made the presentations.
There was a very general attendance
lof church people and their friends in
Guiding a very large number of the
Hawaiian congregation and many rep
lresentatiVes of the Chinese and Japa-
nese congregations.
One of the very pleasant features of
the evening came as a total surprise
to Bishop and Mrs. Restarick. Today
lis the twenty-fifth anniversary of their
marriage. June IS was the twenty
fifth anniversary of Bishop RESEARCHES
ordination, and July will be the fifth
anniversary of his conservation as
Bishop. In recognition of all these an
niversaries the clergy of the diocese
presented Bishop Restarick with a very
handsome clock The Hawaiian Guild
presented Mrs. Restarick with silver
card server with enameled Hawaiian
coat of arms in it, and the church
people of st. Andrews parish present.
ed Mrs Restarick with very hand
some toilet set, silver backed combs
and brushes, and the Bishop and Mrs.
Res arick with a magnificent pearl
handled carving set, and beautiful
set of silver knives and forks, there be-
ing three dozen forks in the set. All
of the articles were marked aloha.
1S82-1907" Canon Macintosh made the
pre- sentation on behalf of the clergy,
and the Princess Kalanianaole the pre-
sentation on behalf Of the Hawaiian
Guild The committee on behalf of ST.
Andrews parish consisted of Mrs. Won
Holt Mis-. Jordan and Mrs. Augur
Bishop Restarick in responding to the
presentations said there were occasions
when appropriate words failed him and
this was one of them. Five years ago
he had stood on this same lanai and
received the greetings of his people,
among them many Hawaiians. He had
been drawn to them from that time to
this. OF the work that had been done
God was the judge. If he had been en-
2 bled to do any work it was because
there was one standing beside him who
for a quarter of century had been
his severest critic as well as his warm
est. She had had constant and unwav
est friend. She had had constant and
faith in his ability to be
and to do He hoped that as pastor
and people they would be spared to
many more years of active service and
to work together for God.
During the evening refreshments
were served on the EVA lanai of the |
hotel some of the younger misses OF |
the cathedral acting as mattresses.
Most of the clergy from the other is |
lands will leave on steamers today.

POSTAL SAYINGS BANKS.

The interesting announcement is made that Postmaster General Meyer will advocate the establishment of postal savings banks, and press the matter upon the attention of congress. His idea is that two per cent. interest should be paid, that the total sum which can be deposited by any patron of the banks be limited to compar- atively small amount and that care be exercised to prevent the deposits from piling up in the government treasury and becoming dead money He be- lieves that postal banks properly con- ducted would add materially to the amount of money in active circulation. The many thousands of small hoards in cupboards and other domestic hid- ing places will, he thinks, come out and help along the business activities of the country as soon as the govern ment puts it's credit behind a conven- tent depository run in connection with the postoff1ces.
 Postal savings banks in this country are probably coming, though many think there is no need of them. The savings banks of the country are, as a rule, run so well, so safely and so liberally that they seem to provide all the facilities needed in that line. But the postal savings bank notion has long been more or less insistent and now is apparently to be more insistent than ever.

Parker refers will not likely be al- layed.
 If the trend of events, especially the problems raised by the new industrial period in which the country has enter ed, shall induce any changes in the constitution, those changes will be most safely be made in accordance with the provisions of the constitu- tion itself and not by judicial construc- tions or by commissions. Enlightened public opinion must, however slowly it seems to act, be the final arbiter in a self-governing people. No speeches of recent days have touched so strongly on these questions at issue as those of the President. Alton B. Par ker, formerly candidate for President, and Senator Foraker.

TRIBUTE TO AY OLD PLUG.

Thus saith Kingman (Kansas) drayman: The racehorse may be a great moneymaker for ten minutes or so on summer day, but my old plug there earns about as much coin, slow as he is, by keeping everlastingly at it the year round And don't have to dandle and nurse him and fool with him. hitch him up when I need him, and give him his regular feed and water when it's time. And as for the honor of winning, I think Old Dobbin, who works faithfully for all he has, is lots more entitled to have the Hon. {" or the Esq" attached to his name than some of these flne-grained anil mals that never work lick in their lives, and whose only business 1t is to separate lot of bad guessers from their money.
 This tribute to an old plug is merit ed. It is the old plugs among both horses and men who do the work of the world, and they don't get much of the credit due them. They are not Ishowy and they do not prance. Of course the value of the racer either among horses or men is not to be de- cried The racer makes the mark, and may do something toward inspir- ing the plugs. But the plugs are use- ful and reliable in life, and are fin- ally just as dead as the racers.

MORAL PROGRESS.

A striking indication of the progress of the ethical sense of the people is seen in the feeling that the Standard oil company has done unrighteously in entering into any arrangement by which it has been the beneficiary of secret rebates. The investigation of this company by the government is followed closely by the average reader from day to day.
 But for years, according to reports of its operations, this company has been profitlng by methods alleged to be devious. As early as 1887, when the interstate commerce act was receiving attention, this company was laying the foundation of It's gigantic business by its alliance with the railroads carrying the oil of the Pennsylvania field. But at that time very little was thought of the matter in comparison to the stir  that Is now made. If it is wrong now, it was then, but the ethical sense of the people was not then sufficiently de- veloped to call for inquiry in the mat ter Even in our academies and uni- versailles the ethical spirit had not en- tered in the instruction of political economy. Ethics had nothing to do with mans effort to accumulate wealth. It was held to be perfectly proper, and no violation of ethics, to make contracts with railroads in a way to benefit as favorites, without thinking of the public characters of the railroads. Years ago a Chicago journalist, Henry D. Lloyd, exposed the methods being used in the oil re- zion in his book, Wealth Versus

THE CHICAGO CHARTER FIzzEE.

The "best" people of Chicago want ed new charter. The old one wasn't suited to such a big city as Chicago is and feels. Under 1t there has been division of authority, and instead of a general appropriation distributed according to their needs among the several departments, there were spe- cial taxes for libraries, parks, schools sanitation and so forth. It is said that a single street might be patrolled for a part of it's length by North Side Park police, for another part by the regular police and for third by the South Side Park police. The North and West Side park boards were ap- pointed by the governor, and the South Side by the Circuit court. And so forth and so on. The proposed new charter consolidated departments. It gave to Chicago a larger measure of home rule than is granted to most large cities It extended the merit sys- tenn and gave to the people the last word on all long-term public utility grants Mayor Busse declared that it meant liberty progress and prestige for the people of Chicago of to-day, of tomorrow and of the future"

head the other day, and the new char ter plan was buried. The "liquor in- terest'' was actively against it, and many of the people of all nations who inhabit Chicago were against it enough to vote against it. So Chicago wont have a new charter for long time yet, and the best people in Chi cago don't feel good. It is worth no- ticing, perhaps, that what are called the United Societies of Local Self Government were against the new charter.

MUsr BE MORE MoBaUr

The way the smart Japanese man. aged when they licked the dull Rus sians continues to be instructive to other nations, even to as smart a na- ton as the United States. For in- stance, the military authorities of this country have been impressed with the mobility of the Japanese infantry, and they think it wise to have the United States infantry more mobile. It is real ized that the distances which soldiers must now travel in time of war make 1t necessary to decrease comparatively the burden of the foot soldier in order that he may be as little hampered as possible with the individual supplies of the field. This is one of the ques- tions the military experts will take up, applying their skill to devices for get ting rid of some of the weights now carried. This may be effected by hav- ing some of the infantry outfit made of aluminium and by having pack horses with each company to carry its ammunition, intrenching tools, ra- tions, shelter tents and blankets. It is urged that if an individual weight of 4 L
 taken from the infantryman, the marching radius a day would be in- creased nearly one-third.
 Which would be we'll worth having Perhaps the time is coming when the foot soldiers can ride in automobiles and so get over the ground faster than even the cavalry.

NO INHERENT POWER.

Government by commission seems to be growing in popularity, or at least, in use, but if it is to be useful it must be more efficient than 1t has been found to be in New Jersey, where the high-salaried State Railroad com mission has been left in rather ri- diculous position by the opinion of At- torney- General McCarter that the commission has no inherent power and cannot give and enforce any orders. Before the commission heard from the Attorney General it summoned representatives of the railroads to ap- pear at Trenton and show cause why orders should not be issued to abolish dangerous grade crossings.
 A commission that hasn't any "in- herent power" is indeed futile. Some Connecticut commissions have "lnher- ent power" even If they don't use fl much. So Connecticut Is better of than New Jersey.

SOME WINGED WORDS.

If the celebrated Mme. Marchesi has said what they say she has said she has provided good advertisement for herself and some interest for others. They say that she has said that "the most enlightened musical audience in the world is in Boston," and that while she "adores music she detests musi- clans" and is entirely unable to solve the mystery why such an adorable art produces such petty folk who practice Iit.
 It Is not probable that Boston will swell up because she is said to have the most enlightened musical audi ence in the world. She knew that long ago. But New York, Chicago and Pitts- burg will swell up. They have spent money enough on music to be enlight- ened and they will want to know why they are not and how Madame Mar chest heard about 1t. And they cant be convinced that she knows or that anybody who told her knows. As for the petty people who practice the di- vine art and are detested by Mme. MarchesL they can detest her as heart- fly as she can them, and very likely they have been doing 1t. If they have not they have not shown one of the distinguishing characteristics of real musicians.

 The general education in a higher ethical consciousness and conscience has led the people to discover where they did not before practices which are in violation of ethical sense and thus led to the enactment of laws by which all such violation may be ade- quately handled. In this way civic law has followed developing ethical sense and become an expression of it.
