ANOTHER HEIREss HUNT.

If the cables are to be believed,
King Peter of Servia will undertake to
find for his two sons, wives in Amer
lea. This means, of course, another
heiress hunt, with, perhaps, even more
disgusting details and publicity than
usually mark those proceedings.
We suspect the quest will not be
made in vain. We should like to feel
otherwise about tive would that we
even dared to hope it might fail; but
nowhere in our hearts can we find
aught to encourage us in that regard.
If these princes are willing TO sell their
odorous titles for American gold at
tached to American girls, we know they
will be able to make the trade somwhere
along the line. The past all goes to
prove it.
Nevertheless, the Karageorgevitch
outfit is, to our way of thinking, the
most undesirable lineup of all Euro
pean royalty. Their house is hardly a
hundred years old; it founder was a
swineherd by profession and brigand
by nature. His successors have been
characterized by a streak of brutality
easily accounted for, but hardly men,
tionable in decent company. Milan
was the most disreputable rake in all
Europe. His son, Alexander, was de-
generate of the most pronounced type
The present king is product of muir
derers, and he holds his throne only
by the grace of the regicides who
placed him thereon.
The sons of King Peter have been ut
terly unable to form alliances with any
royal house in Europe, though they
have tried ever so hard. Nobody
wants to be connected with them; ev-
cry brother monarch gives the servian
king distinctly to understand that he
Is to keep his distance. The females
of the reigning houses abroad realize
that they would have to give up much
that is very dear to the heart of roy
atty were they to link themselves to the
house of the swineherd; hence none of
them will consider the idea.
Surely it ought to gall our national
pride, and 1t ought to give our title
mad heiresses pause, to know that old
King Peter, disappointed at every turn
in Europe, unable to bolster up his for
tunes among the kingly courts of the
old world, now turns reluctantly, but
confidently, to the United States. OF
course, we should feel insulted-im
mensely. 1t is all pitched on such a
low plane; and it is so open and shut
a game. And-well, good many folks
do resent it, and wish it were not so;
but that will not prevent King Peter
winning out in the end. He holds the
Joker, and it out-weighs our best trump
cards, when handled as it is possible
for it to be handled. He will secure
his heiresses, unless all signs fail-and
they are not apt to, more's the pity!

IS BRINGING
MAMMOTH CARGO

SAN FRANCISCO, October 4.-The
Pacific Mail liner Manchuria, which
left Hongkong September 80 for this
port, is bringing $4,000 tons of freight.
This is practically a full load for the
big steamship. The reason for this
mammoth cargo is that the Manchuria
will be the last trans-Pacifc liner
which will bring freight under the old
tariff arrangements, whereby shippers
were granted special transcontinental
railroad rates as an inducement for
their trans-Pacific trade.
The interstate commerce commission
has changed all that, and when the
new ruling goes into effect trans-Pa-
cific lines running in connection with
transcontinental railroads will not be
allowed to attract trade by modifica-
lions in the freight charges.

REV, THW|NG SPEAKS
FOR REFORM AND |AUKEA

Address Before the Oahu Association.
By Rev. E. W. Thwing, Interpreted
in Hawaiian. By. Rev. o. H. Gulick
l was asked to say a few words to
the members OF this Association on
the subject of reform and good gov
eminent. 1t is a matter that must in
terest every one of us. AS you know
the Reform Bureau at Washington is
pushing its work of reform in many
countries, and seeking to promote
Temperance, Purity, Righteousness and
Good Government.
These are questions OF great i'm
portance to every Christian minister
and to every Christian citizen. we
must all stand up strongly and earn
estly for honesty, uprightness and a
clean government, and let it be known
that we are against intemperance and
corruption. This is a time for the
HaWaiians to show that their ideals
are high.
AS there is but AN opportunity Tor
very brief address this afternoon.
L have brought here some printed facts
as to the great temperance movement,
and also letter from the Superinten-
dent OF the International Reform Blu
reau, which you can look over at your
leisure, and which will tell You some
thing of the great reform work being
done in America.
One of the most important lines OF
effort, at the presnt, time is that
strong and persistent movement for
better government which is being
pushed in many cities on the main
land, and also here in Hawaii.
What is the Christian minister's duty
towards this question of good gov
eminent? l want to say to you, fellow
ministers, members and friends of this
Association, we must all stand togeth-
er for Honesty, Reform and Progress.
The Christian minister holds an i'm
portant relation to civic reform and
good government.
Every true citizen in Hawaii must
want good government, and good men
in Office to enforce the laws of the
land-men who will do their duty fear
lessly-and will protect our homes and
our people. A high official in Wash
ington has well said:
IF you have as public officers men
thoroughly honorable and conscientr
GUS you will have, whatever the de-
fects of the statutes or customs, a goou
government
1--WE long to see good and wise men
in public office, the peoples burdens
light, the peoples work well done"
Those serve truth best who to them
selves are true,
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1908-10-13

And what they dare to dream of, dare
to do
Such men. and such only will re-
main truly freemen."
The worGs of this great leader has
the true ring of honesty and integrity.
They give promise OF the overthrow
of the forces of evil and corruption,
and show the high ideals that should
be before every true American.
We must stand firmly against these
forces of evil. We must fearlessly let
it be known that as Christians, we
are for right and honesty and for men
who do their duty.
We have had reform mere iii Homo
lulu, and good work has been done by
our sheriff Iaukea, and he deserves our
support in his fine stand for law and
order We must not be afraid to let
1t be known that we, as ministers, are
for good government and the enforce
ment of the laws. 1t is not time for
questions of party or politics, but each
one should use his influence for right,
honesty and the best man. We need to
come out boldly for reform against
vice and a fearless enforcement of the
laws OF our land. TO every member
OF this Association, l say, earnestly
support a man who has done his duty
and his work faithfully, one who be-
, leYes in law and the solemn obliga-
ton OF his office. AS Hawaiian min
listers, stand firm for good govern.
