The Light of Love.

The effort to do right does not
necessarily lead to the happy. spon-
taneous and loving practice of good
ness. This is to be found not in the
law, but in the gospel; not in the
sight of duty, but in the sight Of
love. 1t is affectionate, filial graft
tude for unbought, unearned mercy.
1t is the great love of him who has
been forgiven much.-James Free
man Clarke.

AMERICANS WILL COME
ON PORTUGUESE TERMS

s'The dispatch from Honolulu in yes
terday's Press Knckerboeker-Ex Express
stating that the planters of the Hawa
ian Islands have asked the territorial
board of immigration to bring in two
thousand families of Portuguese or
other European laborers shows to what
Oriental labor has brought the employ
ers of the islands, says that paper, in
its issue of June 3, continuing: The
Asiatics who have constituted the
great bulk of labor in the Hawaiian
Islands are not to be depended upon.
But that the planters should seek Por-
tuguese is somewhat surprising IN view
of the liberal terms they are prepared
to offer-twenty dollars a month per
man for the first year, twenty-one dol
lars a month for the second year and
TWENTY-FIVE dollars month for the
third wear. together with cottage
rent free. an acre of land for a garden
and both house and land to become
the property of the laborer on the
completion of his three years of SER
vice. Portuguese laborers are not the
only desirable ones in the world. If
the planters are wise they will en-
deavor to secure Americans to work
their plantations. Thousands of sturdy
Americans should jump at the chance
of acquiring a home on such easy
terms Besides, living is cheap in Ha-
wall and with a garden of an acre of
good land the average American should
be able to save nearly all his three
years wages. To be sure, the climate
of the Hawaiian Islands is somewhat
irving to all but natives and Asiatics
who are compelled to toll in the open
fields at hard manual labor but if Por-
tuguese can stand it, certainly able
bodied Americans ought to be able to
do so. Thousands of them will have
poorer opportunities in the United
States.

COMMISSION GOVERNMENT.

Kansas City Times Commission
government has amply justified its
adoption in Leavenworth, in Wichita,
in Des Moines and in every northern
city where it has been tried. 1t has
practically won the cities of the south
because of its wonderful popularity in
Galveston, Houston and in every city
where il has been adopted. In every
place where the people have voted to
place their municipalities under com
mission government they have been
more than pleased with the results.
Kansas City, Kans., therefore, has a
splendid opportunity to study the char
scter of the opponents of the PROPOSE
ton to adopt commission government
in that city. For the plan has worked
hardship nowhere except upon the
franchise grabbers, the gamblers, the
lawiess element of society and the pub
lie piunderers who have been able to
manipulate the old system TO their
own profit at the expense of the people.
