nj. g A, tn Hu.tIc for Funds.

Renewed efforts are being made by the
directors of the Young Mems Christian
association Of Council Bluffs to secure
additional funds TO those already pledged
for the completion of the new association
building. The dormitory and swimming
pool proposition has necessitated a change
10 the original plans. 1t is believed by
the directors that memberships will make
the association self-sustaining. These
new additions will require about $4,000
more money. and in this connection the
directors are sending out circulars to
former contributors asking roF sus-
Sestions whether Il would be expedient
10 leave off the dormitory and MAI the
architectural beauty of the structure OF
to secure additional subscriptions and
complete IT. September is is the day
on which II win be necessary for the
directors to know what they can expect

traction in the bali game Saturday after
noon between the Lawyer of Omaha and
the Court House Cliffdwellers. JeffeTis
not only caught everything that came his
way but also was the star at bat and his
wonderful hitting helped materially to win
the game. The Lawyers won by the score
OF 9 to 6. Jefferis played without an error
at first and made three hits in three times
up, one of which was a home run which
cinched the game. County Attorney Eng
lish was umpire and there were no kicks
on his decisions. He really belonged II
both teams, as he is a lawyer and a county
official as well. The opposing pitchers were
Lynch for the Lawyers, while the Cliff-
jewellers tried three twirlers in an effort
to head off defeat. The C~,iffdwellers
showed the need Of Colonel Jack Rider al

Little Doing in Legislature.

The legislative session was very short
today. Many Of the members had been
excused to go home over Sunday and
Labor day and there was a disposition not
to do any business. Both houses acted
for postponement Of the memorial exer-
cises in honor of the late Senator will
liam B. Allison until next Tuesday after
noon, when II is the plan to have a joint
session, where resolutions will be read
and a few addresses be made. Both
houses adjourned until 10 o'clock Tuesday.
Work on the New Primar Bill.
II was announced in the sessions that the
special committee on the amendment of the
primary law might complete the bill on
Monday. 1t was therefore ordered that In
case the bill is completed 1t be printed and
be on the desks OF the members on Tues
day. There is a general desire that the
measure be acted upon as rapidly as pos
sible. The work of framing the bill is in
the hands of Senators Whipple and Peter
son., one representing each faction in the
republican party. Both are able lawyers.
They have been in consultation with the
attorney general and with party leaders
and 1t is anticipated that the bill they will
write will meet with unanimous approval.
There are two distinct schools of thought
in regard to the whole matter. One favors
an amendment of the general election law
so as to place the names of candidates for
senator on the general ballot in November.
The other is for an amendment to the
primary law providing for a special ballot
which will be similar to the primary ballot
OF June. The separate ballot idea is now
, prevailing and the bill which will be writ.
ten will be in accordance with this plan.
There will be a test of the voters party
affiliation and he may be required to take
an oath as to his party affiliation. Some
even favor an oath that he is not only a
republican this year but was a republican
and voted the ticket at the last election and
intends to vote the ticket at the next elec.

1t Is refreshing to see that the mas
tiers Of the Coast yachts resent the
censure that the disappointed ones
pour on the head of the luckless Cap
tain Harris. Competitors as a rule
are apt to be more fair than outside
critics. who often don't know any
thing about the matter in question.
To them the man who loses is no use
and the victor a genius. We don't
know the actual mileage sailed, but,
granted 1t to be about equal for all,
the differences in time per mile will
be about forty seconds between the
winner and the last boat, and that

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
NOT REVENGEFUL

Editor Evening Bullet n !:
Who has appointed the editor of the
p. c. Advertiser arbiter of the desti-
MES of the Hawaiian race? Why does
he think It necessary about every
three months to issue yelled warn
ing to people, almost homeless sin
their own dear country, that, IL they
presume to band themselves together
for self-protection against the arro-
giant domination of the old white
clique, that the right of franchise
will be taken away from them? The
Hawaiian IL not and never was re-
vengeful in his inclinations or habits I;
If he had been. the history of these
Islands would have been changed fif-
ty years ago, when the native had
nothing to fear but his Incorporate
generosity toward the white man;
how much less is he likely to commit
overt acts of revenge when his coun-
try is but an integral part of great
republic and his own monarchy
swiftly becoming memory of things
that are past.
II the missionaries, who first came
to these Islands. had given the ma
tives sound, practical English edu-
cation; IL they had inculcated the
spirit of industry, instead of cooking
up curio language in order that
they might teach them the wonders
OF the Old Testament, three genera
tions ago the Hawaiian youth would
have been capable Of taking his place
in world affairs. But why should he
not now begin to emancipate himself
from the bogies of the past? What
good reason is there why every Ha-
waiian man and boy should not do
his utmost to preserve the dignity
and integrity Of his race? What Is
there in the conduct of the present
Territorial Administration, or in the
thought and intent of the editor of
the p. C. Advertiser and those for
whom he speaks, that holds an atom
OF encouragement to the Hawaiian,
either old or young? The Hawaiian
does not hate his haole brother. but
he is at last awakening to the fact
that unless he asserts himself quickly
and vigorously, oblivion yawns wide
open for him.

HAWAu'S FUTURE
Troy IN. " Recordl

TROY On. " Record
Secretary of the Interior Garfield
has returned from Hawaii, where he
spent some days inquiring into the
condition of affairs in the insular pos
session. The official has announced
that he was impressed with the
American spirit that is the rule in
the islands, and also with the great
resources of the group.
The people of the United States are
now wondering over their ignorance
of the geography of the Pacific Ocean
a quarter century ago. Probably 30
per cent. OF our inhabitants then
knew as little of the Hawaiian ISL
ands and other now well-known
groups as they did of the northern
part of Alaska. At the time the late
King Kalakaua announced that he in
! tended to visit the United States, our
people roared with laughter over the
| thought of the ruler of country
where cannibalism had been in evil
dence some years before, seeking the
pleasures OF civilization. Many of
our folk had an idea that Kalakaua
had ring in his nose. and that he
wore his hair in curl papers. But
when the dusky sovereign reached
San Francisco, the public quickly
learned that he was quite a civilized
person. While he was somewhat of a
rounder, he demonstrated that he was
not savage.
| Since a bloodless revolution ended
the rule of Liliuokalani, the Hawaii
an Islands have developed in re-
markable degree. Under the Presi-
dency of Dole. and the present Gov
