Everyone on the windward ridge
brings lumber at high freight rates to
build with when a far cheaper material
for building lies all about. I heard
my companion many times telling the
residents of a rough stone house in Pa
lolo valley built by one Williams, that
is artistic, attractive to the eye, will
last for centuries and cost less than
would a wooden house of equal dimen-
sions. A few barrels of cement, plenty
of sand, which is always within mo-
ment's walk on the windward side, as
rocks for building are ever under foot,
and labor that may be trained in few
days to accomplish effective work, is all
that is needed. / believe that James
B. Castle is going to set an example
in this direction to demonstrate to him
self and others what can be done.
Italy is made attractive by peasants
who build their own stone houses, so
why not Hawaii

decade ago, saw it go to pieces, tried
again and again, lost thousands helping
to home the Molokans and looked upon
each failure as but one more step
toward success. And success will come;
it must come to man who works hard
enough and long enough to accomplish
a good thing.
On the mainland I saw colony start
out to Idaho, a cooperative organiza-
ton, and helped them to secure land.
Each member of the colony was per-
mitted to purchase from ten to twenty
acres; each acre gave him vote in the
affairs of the colony. Each colonist
owned also an acre in the little town
in the center of the colony lands. Here
were built, not shacks or magnifed dry
goods boxes, but real tasteful homes.
Vines, trees and flowers were planted
about them and each man had his home
acre in which to raise vegetables for
his table and stable a cow. In the

center of the park around which the
little town was built, the colonists met
and voted on matters to their interest;
they selected and sent one of their num-
Der to Chicago to create market for
their output, and he was successful.
The mortar of united interests bound
the colony together and it was sue
cess, and that is fact worth remember
ing in Hawaii.
THE PREVALENT PESTS.
My friend, the sage from the Coast,
is of the opinion that there are three
pests we must rid ourselves of before
we can invite the small farmer to
Hawaii; first there is the japanese
beetle; then the mongoose and last of
all the corporations, He would bring
bats from the mainland to devour the
night-fiying japanese beetle, as they do
in California; he would ask farmers
to prepare poison and ground glass and

Leadership of Presiden. Roosevelt.

| cannot close without comment on
the position of advantage for the COM
ing national campaign which President
Roosevelt by the intense earnestness,

he has pressed the reforms that right
ly bear his name has secured to the
Republican party. A trimming. do

proof of business, railway and corpo-
rate abuses would certainly have driv-

tie responsibility for them could be
justly charged to it. 1t was not pollti-
cal advantage which the president
sought in these reforms, but the real
betterment Of conditions, which he has
effected. Still the belief of the people
in his sincerity, his courage and his
amazing quality for doing things on
their behalf has won for him hold on
the American public at which even his
bitterest opponents marvel and which

The senate will remain Republican
regardless altogether of how the elec-
ton on Nov. 3 goes. In the lmproba-
BILE event of the election of Demo-
cratic president and house of repre-
sentatives this year there will be no
tariff revision. A tariff bill framed by
Democratic house under Bryan would
receive the same treatment from the
Republican senate that the Mills bill
got from that body in Cleveland's drst
term. 1t would be hung up there. and
new measure would be framed by
that chamber. That would be the end
for that congress. The two branches
would not be able to get together. and
Mr. Bryan would get no chance to sign
or veto a tariff bill.-St. Louis Globe-

these amendments to the Constitution
that were passed by the Republican
party for the protection of the negro.
The negro, in the forty years since he
was freed from slavery. has made re-
markable progress. He is becoming
more and more valuable member Of the
communities in which he lives. The
education OF the negro is being ex-
panded and improved in every way.
The best men of both races. at the
North as we'll as at the South. ought to
rejoice to see growing up among the
Southern people an influential element
disposed TO encourage the negro in his
hard struggle for industrial independ-
ence and assured political status. The
Republican platform. adopted at Chi
cago, explicitly demands justice for all
men without regard to race or color,
and just as explicitly declares for the
enforcement. and without reservation,
in letter and spirit of the Thirteenth,
Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments
to the Constitution.
Publicity of Campaign Contributions
and Expenditures.
Another plank of the Democratic
platform refers to the failure of the
Republican Convention to express an
opinion in favor of the publicity OF
contributions received and expendi-
lures made in elections. Here again
we contrast our opponents promises
with our own acts. A resident Of New
York has been selected as treasurer OF
the Republican National Committee,
who was treasurer of the Republican
State Committee when Governor
Hughes was elected in New York and
who made a complete statement with
In twenty days after the election. as
required by the New York law. of the
contributions received by him and the
expenditures made by him or under
his authority in connection with that
election. His residence and the dis
charge of his duties in the State Of
New York subject him to the law Of
that State as to all receipts of the
treasury of the National Committee
from whatever source and as to all its
disbursements. His returns will be
under the obligations and penalties Of
the law. and a misstatement by him or
the filing of false account will SUBJ
ject him to prosecution for perjury
and violation Of the statute. OF course,
under the Federal law, he is not per-
mitted to receive any contributions
from corporations.

Income Tax.

The Democratic platform demands
two constitutional amendments, one
providing for an income tax, and the
other for the election of Senators by
the people. In my Judgment, an
amendment to the Constitution for an
income tax is not necessary. | believe
that an income tax, when the protec-
tive system of customs and the inter-
nal revenue tax shall not furnish In
come enough for governmental needs.
can and should be devised which un-
der the decisions of the Supreme
Court will conform to the Constitution.

Thre ad From PAPER.

Reference has been made to the
manufacture of paper yarn and paper
clothing in Germany. Now those indie
fatigable people are making thread
from the same material. The thread
is reported to be similar in texture to
cotton or silk and possessing great
strength. No details of the method of
production are vouchsafed. but the
thread is said to be suitable for va
riety Of purposes, being impervious to
damp and nonindammable. 1t is claim
ed that the thread can be made at a
cost of 90 per cent below that of linen
and some 60 per cent less than that OF
cotton. AS will be seen. this would
make the manufacture of paper thread
very profitable if it could be brought
into general use.
