EDUCATIONAL AMENDMENTS.

The public schools OF Loulsiaiia
are deeply interested in to consti-
tutional amendments that are to be
voted by the people of the State in
the Congressional election which
will be held November 9Th next.
These amendments will be known
on the ballots as Nos. 5 and 8.
No. 8 provides, briefly, that as
much as 3 mills of the parish taxes
ORLEANS excepted), shall be devot-
ed to public education, unless the
parish school board agrees to ac-
cept less than that amount. This
amendment does not provide for an
additional tax, it simply diverts as
much as 3 mills of the present taxes
to educational purposes"
No. 8 on the ticket which will
also be voted on November 9Th pro-
vides that certain departments OF
the government shall have the right
to fund special taxes into bonds.
Should this amendment become a
part of the Constitution, school
boards will be enabled to raise
money for building purposes much
more easily than is now the case.
As a matter Of fact, it is very diff
fcult, under the present rather
complicated law, to fund special
school taxes into bonds where the
purpose is to erect school houses.
1t is the object Of this amendment
to remove the difficulties and to
make it easy to fund special taxes
into bonds for building purposes.
There is no division of sentiment
as to the adoption of amendment
No. 8, 30 there is no necessity OF
discussing its great merit.

PoAcHERs ON LAYsAN ISLAND.

WantOn Destruction of Birds on Ha-
 vaiian Reservation by Japanese.
 The capture by the revenue cutter Thetis of twenty-three Japanese poach- CTS on Laysan Island, within the Ha- waiiaD islands bird reservation, news of which was cabled here lately, has caused consternation among the local Japanese fishermen" and they are hastening now to comply with the law by placing five-inch brass numbers on the bows of their sampans lest they come under the suspicion of the Unit. ed States authorities, says the Homo cisco Chronicle.
 There are dozens of powerful gaSO- line sampans in Honolulu harbor, all belonging to Japanese companies. They are ostensible fishing boats, but some of them have been known to be absent from port for weeks at time and then to return without any fish. Some of them have been seen 1000 miles and more west and south, fit ting about among the islets of the bird reservation, and it has long been nor. ally certain that they were engaged in the trade of poaching on the bird islands. Millions of birds are killed by the Japanese every year, but the capture by the Thetis of twenty-three Japanese and 259,OOO bird wings is the first legal evidence that has been obtained of the existence of the nefari. ous trade
 Last summer forty or fifty powerful sampans were launched here, some of them being fitted with engines of for. ty-five horsepower and capable of re maining at sea for weeks at a time No one believed that they were in- tended for the fishing trade, but it was impossible to prove the contrary until now.
 The Thetis Is expected to arrive al- most any day now with her prisoners and more definite information as to the methods of operations of the poachers may then be obtained It is known that the methods of the Jap anese are cruel in the extreme. Cap tain Walker of Honolulu tells of hav- ing seen thousands of birds lying on the shores of some of the bird islands with the wings torn off The helpless creatures had been horribly mangIed and left to die.

 The City of Manila has a perfect system of canals running in all direc- tions. These canals are extremely val uable to business houses having their warehouse and go-downs along their banks Cargoes are taken from the ships in the bay and transferred by lighter over these streams and the goods landed in storehouses, ofttimes far back from the bay shore in the heart of the city.
 The city recently appropriated large sum to extend, dredge out and deepen and to wall up this valuable system. Persons are often transport ed from their homes into the shopping district by water, the covered bancas resembling the gondolas of inundated Venice Small motor boats will event ually carry passengers and low barges over these canals.
 There is sufficient idle water power in the unharnessed mountain streams and falls in the islands to turn every wheel used in manufacture in the archipelago.
