RESERVOIR PIPE LINE
AND ITS ACCESSORIES

Marston Campbell, Superintendent
of Public Works, will advertise in to-
morrow's issue of this paper for cast
iron water chambers, with valves and
fittings, for the Nuuanu reservoir pipe
line At the same time bids will be
invited for the necessary anchors to
secure the pipe in position.
The work has to stand a pressure of
355 pounds to the square inch. 1t is
also designed to take care of the
water hammer from any sudden
shutting off of valve. All of these
devices have to be constructed before
the pipe line can be tested. They are
not appliances kept in stock, but have
to be specially manufactured. Two
local firms can do the work.
If any bids from the Coast for COM
pleting the Nuuanu dam are to be re-
cefved, they must come in the Mon
golia's mail, due the day before the
opening of the bids. The time expires
at noon on Thursday.

TEACHER GIVES
UP HER PLACE
Others Want More Pay-Mr
Rabbit Forecasts His
Trip Abroad.

A meeting of the Board of Education
was held yesterday afternoon. With
Superintendent w H. Rabbit were
present Mrs. j. NJ. Dowsett, j. j. Car
den, William Williamson and S. NJ. Ka-
nakanui, commissioners.
Miss Kaahanui s resignation of the
school at Kamalo, Molokai, was report
ed to the meeting. Miss McCorriston
was an applicant for the place if she
were paid higher salary than has been
allowed there. Simon K. Ealua also
applied The matter went over to
| await a report from the school agent,
Mr.. Tollefson.
A complaint signed by Hawaiians
and Chinese in considerable numbers
against the McGregors at Hauula was
read, also a letter from Mrs. McGregor
which, referring to her information that
such an attack was being made, attrib-
| uted the movement to spite, etc. The
Board at the suggestion of Mr. Babbitt
appointed Mr.. Garden a committee OF
one to go to Hauula and investigate the
trouble.
Miss Neal, first assistant at Kappa,
requested an increase of salary. Cyril
Smith, principal, wrote supporting the
request. Mr.. Rabbit informed the
Board that Mrs. Neal did not have a
certificate and when she was engaged
it was on a statement by Mr.. Smith
that if paid $50 a month she would take
the situation permanently. Kappa
school was admitted all round to have
had hard deal with respect to teach
ers, and Mr.. Babbitt testified to Mrs.
Meals efficiency. What was feared was
the precedent that compliance would
create. Jos. Bettercourt, another Ka-
paa assistant, also an uncertifcated
teacher, had been peremptorily denied
request for raise 1t was voted that
Mr.. Smith be instructed to inform Mrs
Neal that the Board expected her to
abide by the original engagement and,
should she decline to do so, that he
endeavor to find successor to her
among any available persons on Kauai.
Mrs. Fraser, principal of Kaiulani
school, wrote to request that vote of
thanks to DR.. Burnham be passed, for
her arduous and faithful services as
medical examiner. Mention was made
of the doctors aid to the work of the
Palama Settlement. A vote of thanks
to DR.. Burnham was accordingly passed
without hesitation.
Messrs Garden and Williamson were
appointed to act with Mrs. Dowsett on
the teachers committee.

MR.. BABBITTs TRIP.

Mr.. Babbitt read the invitation to
him to attend the Conference of State
superintendent of Education in Wash
ington, received from Elmer Ellis
worth Brown, u. s. Superintendent of
Education. He said the Governor had
advised him to attend the meeting, and
he intended to leave in the steamer
Korea this week. To obtain all pos
sible advantages from the trip, he had
informed Governor Frear, his inves-
extend considerably over the time and
place of the conference. Probably he
would be absent until the middle of
April. If occasions arose for meetings
of the Board in his absence, Mr.. Will
Hanson would call and take charge of
them.
Some of the lines of inquiry he hop
ed to pursue were stated by Mr.. Bah
bitt. From Massachusetts, man he
expected to learn the most approved
method of medical inspection of
schools. School savings banks and the
school city system would be studied
in their best available examples.
Industrial education. as developed
highly in Chicago, would be looked up.
In New York the subject of the physi-
cal welfare of school children was in
viting. He would observe the actual
working of travelling libraries-often
discussed here but never tried, all
though many requests for libraries
were received from country schools.
Some OF the best schools in which
| sewing, cooking, agriculture, etc, were
| taught would be visited. He woul7 see
| as many things as he could in the
| limited time, and would be glad to re-
ceiye suggestions from members.
THE HIGH SCHOOL.
| Before closing Mr.. Rabbit said the
| High School building was pretty well
under way. Contractor Chalmers had
| informed him that he would be ready
for the laying of the corner stone
about the first of March. At a pre-
vious meeting the Board decided to
leave that matter in the hands of the
{ mig SCLiOOl <AIuIiiIH <ASSoGldlIOIia ISS-
ident King of the Alumni had the
business in hand. Mr.. Rabbit trusted
| that the commissioners would be pres
| ent at the ceremony.
SOMETHING MYSTERIOUS.
Mrs. Dowsett. on a call for any
further business, stated she wished to
bring up a matter that was hardly one
for the newspapers as yet.
Mr.. Rabbit asked if she wished the
reporters TO withdraw. The reporters
saved the commissioner the bother OF
answering by going out

Old Tony Elotrocuted.

a Wire. which crossed the street
diagonally, and being old and with

caused death to the horse who ran
into it. Joe. the other horse, was
quickly embarrassed by the driver,

piteously; he groaned in his awful
pain and yet to touch him or the
wire which burned him would have

Gen. Weaver Tells About Democratic
Hostility to Liquor Interests.

In an interview in the Register
and Leader Gen. j. B. Weaver said:
Nothing has occurred of late
years in Iowa which SO completely
registers the growth Of public senti-
ment as the struggle in the COM
mittee on resolutions and in the
open convention upon the temper
ence question" said General Weaver
yesterday. Mr.. Vollmer, an ag-
gressive and forceful young demo-
crat from Davenport backed by
influential delegations from Scott
Dubuque and two or three adjacent
counties, made most spirited effort
to commit the democratic party
against the resubmission of con
stitutional amendment prohibiting
the manufacture and sale of intoxi-
cants in Iowa for beverage purposes.
After all their efforts they were
able to secure but two votes for
their resolutions, Twofor and nine
against Completely routed, their
leader rushed out for consultation
with few friends, and speedily
concluded to abandon all reference
to the prohibition question and CON
tent themselves with very mild
general statement in behalf Of the
traditional right of local self-gov-
eminent, which is so thoroughly
academic as to be declared by its
putatiye father, Mr.. Vollmer, not
worth a d. And even this
homeopathic reference had to fight
for itslife on the. floor OF the CON
Nyention. More than three hundred
;stalwart democrats did their best to
kick even the tradition out into the
streets. Who viii. say that the
world does not move? A mere ira
dition' affords but little comfort for
my old friend, Colonel Eiboeck.
Complete prohibition is knocking.

MOONLIGHT.

the fact that the full moon gives sew

taking advantage of the extreme sensi-
tiveness to light of selenium cell
measured the amount of light coming
from the moon mt different phases with
the result above mentioned. The req
son for the remarkable difference
shown is to be found in the varying
angles of reflection presented by the
foneliened surface OF our satellite to
the sun. The moon is brighter between
iirst quarter and fun than between
tull and last quarter. The cause of

The democratic state convention
at Sioux City did good work and
the speeches were of an exception
ally high order.
Thos. II. Duffey of Dubuque was
elected to succeed G. W. Miller of
Waverly, as the Sd district member
OF the State Central Committee. Mr.,
Doffey has been the chairman Of the
Dubuque Democratic County Com
mittee for several years, and is in
every respect admirably qualified
for the duties Of the office. He is
not a factionist, and will devote
what time and energies he can spare
to the upbuilding and uniting Of
the party. In all, there were five
new members elected.
Hon. G. L. Price Of Indianolia has
been elected chairman Of the com
mittee. A better selection could
not have been made. At no time in
the history of the party has it
entered campaign more deserving
Of success.
Claude R. Porter and Fred White
are men worthy of the admiration,
as we'll rs the confidence and respect
of every citizen Of the state, and the
rest Of the ticket is composed of
men who ara right in respect to the
great questions Of the present time.
Ths people Of Iowa will make no
mistake in electing the entire
ticket.

Congressman Hohson, in his
Chautauqua address in this city,
may have somewhat oveldrawn the
danger to this country of a war with
Japan. But, much as we might
wish it otherwise, there is no ques-
ton but what Japan is planning a
war OF conquest against the United
States. And our greatest danger is
due to our assumed security from
such an attack.
When the people of the United
States loaned hundreds Of millions
of dollars to Japan to help that
country in its war against Russia,
they acted like ingrates and idiots.
Russia was our friend and did much
to keep the other nations Of Europe
from openly helping the Confeder-
ate cause in the dark days of tho
sixties. We should not have turned
against her when her trouble came.

Why Nations Die.

One Chautauqua speaker truth
fully said that nations never die OF
old age; that nations die of heart
rot, caused largely by wealth. But
the speaker should have gone fur
Their and said, that justly distributed
wealth was a blessing instead Of an
injury to any people; that it was
great wealth in the hands of the few
that brewed the national death po-
ton.
This is not an opinion, it is the
statement Of an historical fact, due
to a logical and certain cause.
Why should nation continue to
live after it ceases to be beneficial
to the great majority of its people,
The nation that permits schem
ing few to appropriate to their own
use the earnings of the many, is a
traitor to the fundamental principles
upon which all governments are
based. Such a nation has outlived
its usefulness and deserves to die;
and it does die. 1t dies because it
is an injury instead of a benefit to
the masses Of its wealth producers.
Any government can permit its
people to be robbed, but after the
robbing process has gone to GER
tain limit, the people who are robbed
will refuse to longer support the
government that permits the rob-
berry, and the end is near.

In another column we publish an
extended obituary of Ex-President
Grover Cleveland. In the democ-
racy of death all criticism ends.
There is no disputing the fact that
Grover Cleveland was a great leader
of men. His iron will made an i'm
preston upon everybody and every
thing that came within its zone.
Like Lincoln and many more of
this country's remarkable men, he
rose from the humber walks Of life
to the highest highest position in
the nation. He touched elbows
with the people in every walk Of
life and rose higher at every touch.
