EDITOR STAR: The closing week
of Congress has brought one more VIC
tory for Hawaii in the passage OF my
Passenger Transportation Bin by the
House on Thursday.
That 1t should have passed by vote
of more than three to one was par1-
cularly gratifying in view of an ag
gressive personal campaign made
against the bill by the California dec
cation. The friends OF hawan stood
by me Loyalty in the Light, end a num-
Der of them did personal canvassing
for the bin to Offset the similar worK
being done in opposition.
Strenuous efforts were made by the
opposition to get two Of the particu ar
champions of American shipping to
turn against my bill; but they refused
to change their attitude, giving as their
reason the fact that we had accepted
an amendment to put the bill in tle
least Objectionable form, and that we
had not pressed our bill for passage
until the mail subsidy measure was
finally defeated.
The support OF my bill by these
known friends of American shipping
influenced many doubtful members and
It is very certain that they could have
defeated 1t if we had pressed it in rcs
original form against their opposition
The time limitation in the debate did
not admit Of speeches by the dozen or
more men who helped me to rally the
votes; neither did 1t allow time to an
swer some Of the unfounded statements
made by Mr.. Kahn in opposition.
The personal attitude of members,
as well as the decisive vote, shows that
the House, as well as the committee,
recognizes the unusual conditions re-
quiring this legislation and do not re-
gard it as any attack on the American
protective system.
Members of Congress in general
agree with my contention that protec-

POSTMASTER WAL
ON POSTAL SAVINGS

Arthur WAL, postmaster Of La
haina, Maui, in remitting his yearly
subscription to the Postmaster's Advo-
cate, Washington, writes long letter
to J. w. Mckinley, it's editor and pub
lisher, who prints it in his paper. After
stating the business in hand, Mr.. WAL
makes the following observations on
the proposal to establish a nationai
savings bank, with added remarks on
the positions of second and third class
postmasters, the Lahaina Office being
of third class:
ut is with pleasure note that our
present>Postmaster General has taken
the most aggressive position in favor
Of the Postal Savings Bank, and
hope that at this session Congress
will seriously consider and authorize
him to establish same in the near tu-
ture.
81 entered the postal service ten
years ago as postmaster at this pace,
and was postmaster two years prior to
the annexation of the Hawaiian islands
to the United States. We then had a
Postal Savings Bank.
1T may be Of special interest to you
to know that in the days of the mon
archy the legislature of 1884 estab-
lished a Postal Savings Bank, which
was opened for business on the nrst
day of July, 1886, with His Majesty
Kalakaua as first depositor. That this
was a most successful institution is
shown by the fact that on August IL,
1898, there were 1855 depositors,
with a total deposit of 1914, 047 "a.
Through this institution, with the Sc
curity of the whole Government be-
hind it, people of small means were
enabled safely to invest their funds.
From personal experience the for
eigners here, especially the Japanese,
are sending their earnings home, that
they may be deposited in the Postal
Savings Banks of their native coun-
| try. 1t is sufficient to say that the
many foreigners here in the territory
of Hawaii, who are accustomed to
| the Postal Savings Bank at home,
would use the system here If it were
| established. One benefit the Postal
| Savings Banks would bestow not only
on individuals, but on the country as
whole, is the bringing to night OF
the boarded wealth which is not on de-
post in any bank today.
1.-THE announcement that the post Of
fee will receive saving deposits and
will pay interest thereon will be suf-
fcient. The post Office is already
known to every boy and girl, every
man and woman in our land. No spe
cial inquiries as to the character o
the institution; as to whether thei
savings will be placed in safe hands
the Government of the United States
is we'll known as to character, respon
sibility and business habits Absolute
security for the faith and credit Of

WHY?

The Baltimore Sun objects to giving
representation in Democratic national
conventions to Hawaii, Porto Rico and
the Philippines, and argues that they
should not be allowed to help in shap-
ing national platforms and naming
Presidential candidates. But why dis
criminate among the political units in
our system not vested with electoral
votes? If Hawaii ought not to have
representation, why should Arizona,
Alaska or the District of Columbia
have it?-New York Tribune

ton does not mean deprivation; and
that the Protective system was never
designed to deprive American citizens
of any commodity A full report OF
the debate will be found IN the Record
of May 2o.
Owing to the existing status o.
business in the Senate, my blll can
not receive consideration by that body
before its final adjournment tonight
But have strong assurance that the
bill will be promptly lassed when the
Senate reassembles in December.
The Omnibus Territories bin which
contained the Wahiawa Water Com
pany franchise, and the two Maui cleo
tric franchises had a stormy career in
the Senate and final faued Of enact
ment Owing to the illness Of Senator
Foraker, his committee was unable to
get a quorum together to consider our
bills, and they were reported to the
Senate by a poll of the committee.
This procedure has often followed be-
fore, but THIS time 1t was obie tsd to
on the floor Of the Senate, and the two
Maui franchise bills were stricken out
Of the omnibus bi together with one
Alaskan bill; the Wahiawa Water Co,
franchise was permitted to remain in,
because it had been considered regu-
larly In committee.
Owing to the fact that this omnibus
bill did not pass the Senate until late
in the evening, It was phy-icaly i'm
possible to have it eugros-ed and act
ed upon by the House before the hour
agreed on Tor adjournment, and it
will consequently lie on the Speakers
table ii Congress recOnvenCs in De-
cember; at that time we can doubtless
nave the two Maui bills reinserted in
conference; meantime the Wahiawa
bill is safe, having now passed both
houses and only awaiting agreement
on other parts of the omnibus bill.
Very truly yours,
J. KALANIANAOLE,
delegate to Congress.

Harking patiently, testing industri-

bell at o'clock last night arrested a
yagrant ethergram, a cry over the wa
teTy waste for companionship, from
the United States battleship Maine.
"Have you any wireless? Have you
any wlreless?"
AS soon as Isbe1l sensed the inter-
rogation he wanted to spark back to
the unknown, whose distance he knew
not, that he had all kinds of wireless,
but remembered that while he had
power to receive from as yet unknown
distances, he had, at the Kahuku sta
ton, no way of getting back and he,
perforce, was dumb.
Who could 1t be feeling out from
somewhere to touch someone for re-
ply. 1t might be a ship in distress
making a dying statement!
It is not known If Isbell ever says
damn" but if he did he should be ex-
cused when his powerlessness to talk
back on such an occasion is realized.
But it was only for moment, his
anxiety, for then came the rest Of the
message.

Quickly Isbell referred to the sta

Five minutes elapsed and then the
Maine called again, and again, until
she was tired and her operator presum-
ably concluded that whatever light
was seen was that of a boat unwire-
lessed.
There could have been nothing
wrong with the Maine, or she would
have mentioned it in her feeler, in hope
that something would catch the mes
sage.
