Papa-He would be a New Yorker
or course, my child, in large sense
all inhabitants of the state of New
York are New Workers, but, generally
speaking, by the term New Yorker is
meant one who lives in the city OF
New York, and that is why China,
man out on Staten island is a New
Yorker.
Child-Papa, does a man have to be
foreigner in order to live in New
York?
Papa-What a question, my child.
or course not. There are many living
in New York whose native language
is English.
Child-Oh, they were born there?
Papa-Not necessarily. Some were
born in Great Britain and Ireland and
some in the British possessions, but
they all speak English and they live
in New York and are New Workers..
Child-Then, if l understand you
Alright, my dear father, a man who
lives in New York and who speaks
English must have been born either
In Great Britain. Ireland, or some
where in the British possessions.
Papa-Not at all. There are native
Americans who speak English and who
live in New York.
Child-And where are they from?
Papa-Some were born in New Eng.
land, some on the Pacific coast, some
in the middle west and some in the
south.
Child-Then they are the real New
Workers.
Papa-Not necessarily. ANY man
who lives in New York for any length
OF time becomes a New Yorker. no
matter where he may have been born
When he travels he registers from
New York.
Child-Is 1t in the air?
Papa-It is in the air. The western.
er despises New York until he has
made fortune, and then he comes IN
New York to spend it, and after that
he is a New Yorker. The soutberner
who has come to New York tn live

south, and If he doesn't his tongue

stltch her own handkerchlefs; and the father
in sending his boy away from home cannot
save him from the temptations of the city
by presenting him with a combination tool
which will serve as a gimlet file, awl, chisel
and screw-driver at will.
No, let manual training have its run.
The pedagogues of the next decade will find
how impotent it is in making character. We
must go back of that, enlist our children in
great causes, reveal to them the woes of
the world, teach them in some forceful
fashion that they are members of larger
home, factors in a great movement, privates

What, then, is the cry of the children
to us? More conscience as to the things we
eat and wear; more scruples, not only as to
how we win but as to how we utilize our
prosperity; more togetherness; co-opera-
tive life as expressed in laws must increase
with the rapid complications of society; a
widening of our horizon, merging of city
and state into national and international
sympathies, legisations and administra-
tons; not so much more, but better edu-
cation.

popular demand for more technical educa-

Child-Well, papa, you have told
me about foreigners who were New
Workers, and about English-speaking
people who were New Workers and
about Americans who were New York
ers, but | want to know if there
couldn't be more perfect kind of
New Yorker than any of these-one
who was born in New York and who
spoke English?
Papa-Why, yes, my child; there
are thousands born in New York who
speak English. They are hard and
tast New Workers. Their parents
were Germans and Italians and
Frenchmen and Jews and Greeks. but
they were born in New York and they
speak English.
Child-Then, papa, they are the real
New Workers, aren't they?
Papa-Well, believe that they are
considered to be the most patriotic
New Workers because their New
forkism is so new; but, my child. in
this city of which we are speaking,
thls city of nearly 100000 inhabi-
tants, there is little class, without
much influence, to be sure. but still

Papa-Well, no. They spoke Dutch

Child-I never heard of them.

Fine old Spanish emeralds" is a
phrase which means something quite
different from what it seems to imply.
There never was an emerald mined in
Spain, but after the conquest of
Peru the conquerors brought home
great quantities OF loot, of which EN-.
eralds formed an important part. In
this way the finest emeralds came
into possession Of the old Spanish
families, and as very few had been
seen in Europe previous to that time,
all the best stones soon became
classed as fine old Spanish emerads.
To-day the expression still applies to
the best emeralds of any source.

is a New Yorker?

New Yorker is one
who lives in New

New Yorker may
be a Chinaman

OF course, it is only the exceptional woman that
is fit to be president; but it is also only the exceptional
man. To triumph the prejudices that hamper her
sex woman president would have to be so exraordi-

fitted to be president as almost any man.

BY all means, a woman president of
the United States. Of course, the ideal
government would be that in which a man
and woman ruled jointly. A coadjutor
woman president would have been of great
assistance to any man that has ever filled
the presidential chair.
Many presidents have had unacknowl-
edged coadjutors in the persons of their
wives.
Many a great man has to say; ''Well,
I'll tell you what | think about that to-
morrow" because he wants to go home and
ask his wife what to think.

Kepoikai
Mystery
Washington Strangely Silent
About KepOikai Matter.

What has happened to the Ke-
poikai removal matter?
Have the letters on the subject
which were written to Washington
nearly two months ago been receiv-
ed or not?
Will any action be taken?
These and similar questions are
becoming topics of general talk in
Honolulu and those on both sides
and also Governor Frear are in
terested In case there is nothing
heard from the matter by the next
nail, which arrives on Friday by
the Alameda, Governor Frear will
write to Washing to ask if his
letters have been received.
The unusual part of the matter
comes from the fact that Governor
Frear has never even received an
acknowledgment of his letters,
which were addressed to the Secre-
tary of the Secretary of the Interior.
1t is customary in such cases when
letters of importance are received
which require consideration. to at
first simply acknowledge receipt
but even this has not been done in
the present case, which was taken
up six weeks ago.
1t is possible that the case may
be taken up again before the Bar
Association. 1t is certain that a
vote if taken now would be ma
terially different from that which
was taken in January when charges
were filed against the Maui jurist.
Still there is an element of doubt
which causes those who are press
ing the charges to hesitate. There
are a humber of lawyers here who
express their opinion very frankly
to the effect that they believe that
Kepoikai should be removed, but
they are not at all anxious to get
into a row over the matter. For
this reason, though they hold a
firm opinion on the subject, Wee IA
meeting to he held, some would
not attend. in this manner avoid
ing any possible unpleasantnrss.
On the other hand Kepoikai's
friends would every one be on
hand. In this manner the senti-
ment OF the Bar Association itself
would not be given, which result
would be very unsatisfactory

Park between the Morning Stars
and Kahuluis was won by the
latter by score of 6 to 4
By this victory the kahuluis
have won the valuable silver cup
offered by the Raymond Ranch
and will hold the same during the
coming year.
Should the same team win it
next season they will become own
ers of the cup, as one of the stipu-
lations is that it becomes the pro-
perty of the team winning it two
successive seasons.
The Kahulul team started this
season in a very weak condition
and won only one of the first five
games. after which it was strength
ened by H. English, V. Ayau, Joe
Clement and w. Espinda of the
Riverside League, Honolulu, with
whose support the team have won
every game played.
There remains but one postpon-
ed, game to be played between the
Kahuiuis and the Healanis but as
the latter have apparently disband-
ed there will not be any game.
Sundays game was a lively one,
in regard to noise, but the quality
of baseball put up by both sides
was not what is usually, played by
these two teams.
Bento held down the plate for
the Stars and was in no form
whatever, everyone ofthe Kahuluis
being able to connect at ease.
The Kahului players made
several errors and bad throws which
which helped the Stars to score.
w. Espinda, the Kahului pitcher
has gone to Honolulu to attend
school and was given royal send
off by the fans of Kahului, who
appreciate the good work done by
the Honolulu twirler.
A grand luau is being planned
by the Kahului boys in honor Of
their victory, this being the first
time the Kahuluis have taken the
Championship away from Wailu-
ku.
Geo. Cummings and Jas. Hattie
acted as umpires, and did their
work to the satisfaction of both
teams and the spectators, a thing
that seldom happens in local base
ball games, i. e. satisfying all
parties concerned.
There was large audience and
the local fans feel sorry that the
league has come to an end. There
is some talk of starting a winter
league in the near future.

Hart Slate
is Broken
Hawaiians Spurn Color Line
Politics.

No better proof of .he fairness of
the Hawaiian race can be produced
than the result of the vote in Wal
luku at last Saturdays primary
election.
There was but one issue during
the election and that was the color
line drawn by the Hart crowd who
had printed great many tickets
which opposed the election of every
white man and endorsed al OF the
twelve Hawaiians and part Hau "a
iians.
Opposed to this scheme were the
whites and Hawaiians alike and in
spite of the strongest efforts OF
Hart and Coelho and men OF that
class both of the white men who
were slated TO be slaughtered were
elected here while Hart was elect
ed by but four more votes than the
white man who received the lowest
vote who was elected.
There were two hundred and
nine ballots cast and three were
but forty-five white men who voted.
Practically all of the other votes
were either cast by Hawaiians or
part Hawaiians.
f. H. Hart was the only man
on the opposition ticket who was
opposed by the fair play supporters
who was elected and he got in by
very small majority
During the voting Senator w. J.
Coelho, the driver of the delivery
wagon for the Puunene Store at
Kahului addressed few Hawaiians
and told them to vote for the Ha-
waiians and not for haole. He
said he never knew a haole 10 help
a poor man. He seemed to have
forgotten that he was nominated by
a haole his nomination seconded
by haole and that he is now earn
ing his bread from haole business
house.
This speech will probably be re-
membered by good many for a
long time to come.
There were but two sets OF print
ed sample ballots and each was the
same except as to II Nj. Coke and
r. A. Wadsworth being on one
slate and both left off by Hart, and
twelve Hawaiians and part Ha-
waiians being on his ballot. Both
white men were elected and a study
of the voters lists shows that each
of the white men received more
Hawaiian votes than either of them
did of votes of the white men.
1t is to be hoped that this will
put an end to the drawing of the
color line as it is plain that the
Hawaiians will not stand for this
sort of politics,
