RECALLS FAMOUS GOLF MATCH
Projected Game Brings Back Contest
In Which Royalty Was
Involved. y

The projected golf match between
two well known amateurs and lead
ing member of the London stock ex-
change for a stake of $4,000 recalls to
the Westminster Gazette the famous
foursome in which the duke of York,
afterward James H., took prominent
part on the Leith links in the year
1852. 1t was really an International
contest in which the duke, with John
Patersone, a golfing shoemaker of
great repute, championed Scotland
against two noblemen of England, a
heavy wager depending on the issue.
The duke and the cobbler had an easy
victory, thanks largely to the man Of
the last, and John Patersone's share
of the stakes was so substantial that
he was able to build goodly house in
the Canongate, in a wall of which the
duke caused a stone to be placed bear
ing the Patersone arms with the mot
to, Far and sure" tribute to the
cobbler's driving powers. Patersone's
house survives to-day.

Mortified hands and raising of out

lows these probabilities or the few
lmillionaires who occasionally separ--
ate from their money, and II would
violate precedent should they be

that their brain cells are not so coiled

hard-headed gentleman VINO does not
often blow himself, and If he cares to

POLITICIANS AND WORKERS.

Supervisor Quinn and his associates
among the city fathers will merit
grcat favor with the people IL they
carry out the policy suggested by Mr..
Quinn for the employment of politi-
cal workers.
All things being equal. the man
active in politics should have the
preference among candidates for pub
lie service Every citizen should be
political worker. The cause for the
term politician" having fallen into
disrepute is that such a large percen-
tGge of otherwise honest AMI decent
citizens fail in the performance of
their duty rs politicians.
Those who do attend to this first
duty find that the man capable of do
ing honest political work and an hon
est days labor for the public is not
such an exception TO the rule as the
critics would have them believe.
II has become a popular fad among
the men who do nothing and are the
worst enemies Of popular government
to speak sightingly OF the politician.
While the city and county of Homo
lulu has not been highly edited by
the showing made thus far in the
forms and ceremonies and technical
tiles of government. the officers cleo.
