MILITIA AND
OTHER POSITIONS
CONFLICT BETWEEN THE TWO
SERVICES CAUSED CONSIDER
ABLE DISCUSSION.

The question of the duties of Ma
tional Guardsmen to the Territory in
two capacities was one which OCCASION
ed some little friction in several of the
departments this morning, but which
has practically cleared up by now.
Does a man who is employed in a gov
ernment department owe his duty first
to his department, or to the National
Guard to which he may also belong?

whites, one a woman, using the drug
here" said Secretary Kui of the Chi
nese consul, who is one of the work
ers. "Of course know that in New
York and other big cities, there are
some, but didn't think there were any
in Honolulu"
Sixty Chinese merchants and others,
including Consul Chang Tso Fan, are
members of the association formed to
carry out here the policy of the i'm
perial government, to free their race
from the curse of opium. AS in China
the proposition is being taken up with
businesslike assurance of ultimate COM
plete success. The leaders simply say
to the aggravated cases that if they
take the cure their. appetite will go
and to the other rases that they had
better stop.
The curative drug being sent out is
an herb. 1t is a recent discovery, and
is being much used throughout China.
1t is said quickly to destroy the opium
appetite.
The Wui association is also sending
out articles and pamphlets giving in
formation about the great reform
movement and urging Chinese to join.
An elaborate calendar is being printed
and on its borders are the famous
edict of the empress. The work is be-
ing undertaken all over the islands,
with Honolulu as the headquarters for
the distribution of the cure and litera-
ture.

CHINESE EDITOR IN new YORK
TT SUM LING IS MAKING A
WORLDS TOUR.
"open Door" Is His Mission-says
China Is Grateful to
America.

NEW YORK, September 23.-When the
Red Star liner Kroonland arrived at
Quarantine yesterday she was met by the
tug Eugene Moran, bearing number OF
Chinese students who had come to greet
Ii Sum Ling, editor of the Hongkong
Mail, who is going around the world In
the interests of the "open-door policy
for China.
In an interview he said:
The action of your government in re-
turning a large portion of the Boxer in
demnity and in contributing over a mil
lion dollars to the famine fund has. l be-
lieve. created in China sentiment of graf
itude and good will which will be worth
far more to America than the money in
volved China proposes to use this in
demnity fund for educational purposes.
-"Our people want to build up our coun-
try and develop our natural resources In
a peaceful way. But unfortunately our
attempts to do so are apparently resent
ed and provoke an aggressive attitude on
the part of some powers.
THE far eastern question, as you know.
is great problem. China at the present
moment Is placed in a very delicate po-
sition. If she is helped to develop. the
commerce and civilization Of the world
will be benefited. If she continues to be
considered a subject for exploitation, civ
ilizati will suffer and the free develop
ment of the commerce of all nations will
be retarded
"China Is a vast country and offers i'm
mense business possibilities. Ny idea is
that as the feelings of the two countries
are now SO friendly, If a commercial
agreement in a defensive form can be
concluded between China and America
the far eastern problem will cease to
threaten the peace of the world"
Other passengers on the Kroonland
were Miss Yvonne de kerstrata. the
actress. who returns from her home in
France after having refused the offers of
titled relatives to live In an old chateau;
John j. Maher, Prof. d. Herring and
Supreme Court Justice James A. O'Gor-
man. who has been away with his wife,
six daughters and son for a summer va
cation. which they spent touring France
and Switzerland.
