.DESKY GOES
WITH PARKER

Chas. s. Desky, the well known real
estate man, will accompany Col. Sam
Parker to Cuba, sailing tomorrow. Mr..
Parker has purchased $4,000 acres of
rich land over there and wants Mr..
Desky to look it over. There is as
yet no suggestion that the cattle king'a
venture is one largely of speculation,
but the presence of Mr.. Desky on the
ground may induce something of the
kind.
The land acquired by Colonel Parker
is as fertile as any to be had on the
island, and may be easily turned to
cattle or sugar raising, or both. The
original intention of Colonel Parker
was to duplicate his Mana ranch,
reaching the West Indian and East
American markets with the products
Colonel John T. Baker is interested
with him in the venture.

BEEF ARRIVES
On HILON|AN

An important item in the cargo of
the Hilonian, arriving this morning,
was 300 carcasses of beef for the Me-
tropolitan Meat Company. This i'm
portation, and others to follow, results
from the drought on Hawaii and the
failure Of the ranches therefor to de-
liver the customary number of cat
tie.
The first lot of beef to arrive came
in the Lurline. This second shipment
is much larger and will be sufficient
to meet the local demand for some
days. Other cargoes are to follow.
The Hilonian. Lurline and Alameda
are all fitted up for ice goods and
will be used freely by local meat ship
pers until the famine is over.

SEASONAL NOTES.

Senator Moore divulged at the love
feast between the two houses yester-
day that it was his birthday, where
upon Senator Chillingworth made the
same pleasant confession. 1t is nice
coincidence that a Democrat who had
broken into the Senate at last election
and a holdover Republican member
should have their birthdays signalized
by falling on the opening day Of the
Legislature of 1909.
Senator Robinson is one of the nat
tiest of the upper chamber solons,
and the little he has spoken thus far
indicates that he is sprightly Of speech.

WOMEN AND WOMEN.

Men get along better with men than
women do with women. At least we
think they do. And the reason is that
men are more used to liberty than
women are, and reader to concede 1t.
Women also seem better constituted
to live with men than with women,
which is just as it should be. One
grown woman is fairly comfortable
provision for any house-not counting
servants (who have their own troubles
about getting along with one an
other).
Frequently women who have had Is
or 20 years experience as the sole
grown-up woman of the house, have
daughters grow up on them We
would like to see statistics of the pro-
portion Of families in which that
makes trouble. 1t Is natural trou-
BILE. The boss woman who has been
sole despot of her branch of the do
nestle kingdom has gradually to yield
independence and vote to another
grown woman living under the same
roof. The boss-woman has to learn to
live with another grown-up female
after being 20 years out of practice.

wonder mothers and daughters have
their conflicts.-Life.

could fight valiantly against what he
deemed wrong. and yet preserve undi-
minished his love and respect for the
brother from whom he differed. In the
hour of triumph that would have
turned any weaker mans head in the
heat of a struggle which spurred many
good man to dreadful vindictiveness, he
said truthfully that so long he had
been in his office he had never willingly
planted q thorn in any mans bosom,
and besought his supporters to study the
incidents of the trial through which they
were passing as philosophy from which
to learn wisdom and not wrongs to be
avenged; ending with the solemn exhorta-
ton that, as the strife was over. all
should reunite in a common effort to save
their common country.
Strong Sense Of Justice.
''He lived in days that were great and
terrible when brother fought against
brother for what each sincerely deemed
to be the right. In a contest so grim
the strong men who alone can carry Il
through are rarely able to do justice
to the deep convictions of those with
whom they grapple in mortal strife. Al
such times men see through a glass dark
ly; to only the rarest and Hottest spirits
is vouchsafed that clear vision which
gradually comes to all, even to the lesser,
as the struggle fades into distance, and
wounds are forgotten. and peace creeps
back to the hearts that were hurt But
Lincoln was given this supreme vision.
He did not hate the man from whom he
differed. Weakness was as foreign as
wicked to his strong, gentle nature; but
his courage was of a quality 50 high
| that 1t needed no bolstering of dark pas
sion. He saw clearly that the same
| high qualities, the same courage, and
| willingness for self-sacrifice, and devo-
| ton to the right II was given them to
| see the right, belonged both to the men
| of the north and to the men of the south.
| AS the years roll by, and as all of us,
| wherever we dwell grow to feel an
| equal pride in the valor and >sef-devo-
| ton. alike of the men who wore the blue
| and the men who wore the gray, so this
| whole nation will grow to feel a peculiar
sense OF pride in the mightiest of the
| mighty men who mastered the mighty
| DAYS; the lover of his country and of all
| mankind: the man whose blood was shed
for the union of his people, and for the
| freedom of race. Abraham Lincoln"
