PROMOTION BETTER THAN PAY
Workmen Would Rather Not Be Hurt
by Industrial Accident,
JOHN MITCHELL ON THE SUBJECT
vice President of American Fedora
tiOn Of Labor Before American
Academy of Political and
Social Science.

PHILADELPHIA. April S.--Much new
light on industrial accidents was given this
evening in an address by John Mitchell
vice president Of the American Federation
of Labor, before the fifteenth annual meet
ing Of the American Academy Of Political
and Social Science. Among other things
Mr. Mitchell said:
During recent years the problem of
Industrial accidents and their prevention,
and the question Of compensation to work
men for losses caused by them have pro-
voked wide public discussion, as a result
Of which the federal government and
several state legislatures have created com
missions to Investigate the causes Of such
accidents and to devise some legal system
Of automatically indemnifying workmen
for losses caused by them.
These subjects concern. in a very large
way. all the people OF the state and
nation. although they effect more immedi-
ately the working men. because It is upon
them that the burden falls with crushing
weight and it is they and their dependents
who suffer the direct and irrepassble con-
sequence OF such accidents. In our country
the tragedy OF the bread-winner killed
while at his work occurs more than 100
times each day, more than 5000 times
each year. Thousand upon thousands OF
easily preventative accidents and fatalities
occur. annually, and It Is from those that
we should strive to secure relief.

1T is strange commentary upon our
boasted American civilization that in the
United states nearly three times as many
persons in proportion to the number en-
ployed, are killed or injured in the course
of their employment as in any other coun-
try of the world.
,'As an Illustration OF what has been ac-
complished In Europe through wise legis-
lation and as an evidence Of what could be
accomplished by proper Legislation in the
United States your attention il directed
TO the fact that taking all, the mining

annual number Of industrial fatalities is
only 1.45 per 1000 employed, whereas in
the United States the average annual
number of fatalities in mines is S.46 per

IN MEMORY OF
THEIR FOUNDER

Memorial services were held in
the chapel at Kamehameha
Schools Sunday morning, in con-
tinuation of celebration keeping
fresh the memory of Mrs. Bishop.
The Rev. w. B. Oleson conduct
ed the service, which was notice
able inasmuch as it was nearly
all in the Hawaiian tongue. This
custom is carried out every year,
The Honolulu times. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1902-1911, 1911-01-01

it being thought that by this
means the day. and more especi-
ally the sentiment connected with
it, will be more readily construed
by the students.
The scene in the chapel was an
impressive one. Line upon line
of boys and girls, with the Ha-
waiian blood flowing in their
veins, poured out their love and
devotion for her to whom they
owed so much, in hymns which
were her favorites when she was
alive. In the semi-darkness of
the chapel the organ notes stole
softly, and presently was heard
the chanting in the musical ma
tive tongue. 1t is one of the
flowers Mrs. Bishop left behind
her in her life, the best and most
beautiful of them all.
The service was opened by the
organ prelude, 81 Waited for the
Lord" followed by the Doxology
and the Invocation. The whole
school then united in singing one
of Mrs. Bishops favorite songs,
"Pauahi Ike Alii," and later on
again the boys sang "Pauahi O
Kalani."
The Rev. Mr.. Oleson based his
sermon on the foundation Mrs.
Bishop had laid for the future of
her race. 1t might be, however,
that if she could express her wish
to them that it would be that
they would think less of her per-
sonally and more of her work. 1t
was the idea that she had in her
mind that is the great thing for
them to grasp and try to under
stand. 1t was for them to develop
their lives as they thought she
would like them. But the foun-
dation was useless unless they did
this.
At the conclusion of the sermon
the girls of the school got to-
gether and sent their famous cry
ringing through the chapel. An
interlude and communion follow
ed and then the girls recited the
Queens prayer, which was spe-
cially written by Her Majesty for
her subjects. The benediction
and amen closed the service.

Mrs. Mckenzie, who has Chi

for instance: 'In this congested
district, teeming with child life,
it is hard matter to discriminate
between those who need and
those who most need Christmas
cheer. To the first class many
hundreds of tickets could be dis
tributed; to the latter, two hun

COLLEGE OF HAWAII.

For the agricultural colleges,
which in Hawaii is the College of
Hawaii, 100000 is appropriated
to teach agriculture, rural affairs,
trades and industries. The allot-
ment to each State shall not be
less than $4,000, so the college
is assured of that amount. The
proviso in this case is that the
Legislature establishes an extern
sion department and appropriate
an amount equal to allotment.

1t is source of congratulation
on behalf of the poor children of
of this city that so much interest
is being displayed in the decking
of the Malihini Christmas Tree,
which is for the benefit of every
child who would otherwise miss
the pleasure of being remember
ed with some token of the love
and thoughtfulness due them at
this season. The members of the
Japanese community have, as
usual, responded in a whole
hearted manner and propose to
increase materially the sum of
happiness to which the little ones
look forward. And now the Chi
nese residents have come forward
and intend to add their donations
and good wishes. Thus the Mali
hini Christmas Tree will bloom
forth with a thousand forget-me-
notS.

yes.
This Tree will be wholesome
(wholesale) and magnificent,
even stupendous surprise to the
stranger within our gates. 1t will
give him an idea OF how Zone
"how" of many) we keep the Di-
vine Birth in the land of aloha
and sunshine mingled with rain
bows painting the hillsides. Their
eyes and their hearts will indeed
be opened, and they may wish to
join in giving gifts.
However, we never forget, we
can never forget, that the loving
founders of this particular and
to-be-famous Tree, were tourists
in Our midst, travellers, and they
were inspired so to speak, to do
nate special tree for poor chill
dren and manifest their love for
Honolulu and their interest in
that way. They were thinking of
their loved ones far over the sea.
And they could not stand idle at
that blessed season and so they
fastened to give and to try to
make happy, at least for that one
day.
And it was marvellous out
pouring such as the city had not
known. 1t was an original
unique affair, and the message
of love struck home to every
heart.
And so, is now well-rooted the
malihini tree for all the coming
years as we do believe.
With all the rest it seems the
very best and easiest method of
reaching all and giving happy
outing to all, receiving each his
own gift and sharing also to the
full in the joy and gladness of
the hundreds of little comrades
treat, too, of music and of
laughter, for what can be more
musical than the merry laughter
of children at such time True
melody and always welcome to
the ear.
The city will turn out to wit
ness this moving picture show,
this panorama of color and de-
light, this caravan of boys and
girls Fastening on to the Christ
mas tree from every quarter of
the town. 1t will be a gigantic
scheme as we predict, for 1910.
1t will even startle ourselves if
we do not mistake. 1t will be re-
membered and recounted, in far
off lands and homes, by the tour
ists-a story worth ones while
and of many chapters.

Learning to Swim.

The men, women, and boys who take
advantage of the opportunity offered to
learn to swim at the bathing pool af-
ford most convincing demonstration
to Congress and the Commissioners OF
the necessity for larger facilities of
this character. The toll of human life
would be greatly lessened if the city
would establish additional bathing places
under efficient instruction.
In New York the authorities appre-
ciate the value of swimming contests.
Boston is also well equipped with bath
ing facilities, and other cities realize
that if the boy or the girl can be taught
to swim it means the saving of life.
1t is remarkable to what extent a per-
son can maintain himself or herself afloat
if equipped with the knowledge. For
instance, man in a New York contest
swan for forty yards with his hands
and feet securely tied Most people
could not maintain themselves above
water for the same distance with both
hands and feet free for action.
Swimming has already been success
fully taught to hundreds of young peo-
pie in Washington. The good work
might be materially extended, however,
if the facilities were not restricted to
the one series of small pools which are
now available.

RUSSIAN UP TO DATE

Cars Meeting with Newly AppoInf-

A special dispatch from St Petersburs
gives the following account Of the meet
Ing between the Gar and the newly

Russia:
The Ambassador with q courtly bowl:
"Howdidoski?'
H. I. NJ. the Car Cmost graciously ex-
tending his hand: "Fineski. And you

The Ambassador (seizing the hand
warmly: "Greatski!'
H. I. NJ. the Car (waving his hand
toward the imperial sideboard): "Hav-

The Ambassador "a pleased smile
wreathing his face): "Don'tcareifidosld."

The Ambassador (shaking his head.
"Nitski. Scotchwhiski.''
1t is most gratifying to gather from
this report. which comes to us from an
authoritative source, that We have at
last sent an American to Russia who is
familiar with the language of the country
to which he is accredited.

"ozoNE FROM THE SOUTH

4 &
Some Comment on the Views of
Wen-knOwn Southern Democrats.
From the New York Sun.
1t seems worth remarking that II the
Hon. Woodrow Wilson would sit while
at the feet of some OF his Southern
brethren he might form a clearer con-
ception Of the meaning of that director
Democracy for which he is working with
such openness Of mouth.
Let Gov. Wilson study with respect
ful attention the utterances of two dis
| tinguished gentlemen from Alabama,
who spoke at Tammany Halls Fourth
, Of July celebration. The Hon Oscar w.
Underwood chairman of Ways and
Means, leader of the majority in the
House, and a steadily growing figure in
the esteem OF Democrats of all shades
Of opinion, contributed these homely but
refreshing sentiments about the merits
of regular party organization:
Many of our leading magazines and
newspapers condemn organization as an
evil and a menace to good government.
do not agree with them. Our national
growth has advanced step by step with
some powerful organization behind It.
Individuals standing alone cannot ad-
vance the principles they believe are the
best for the government Of our country.
When you hear men decrying our poIiti-
cal parties, at the same time you find
them endeavoring to perfect an organiza-
ton to overthrow the evils they cry out
against"
The other Democrat from Alabama
L.
Hon. Henry d. Clayton, chairman Of the
Committee on the Judiciary in the pres
ent House Of Representatives. He like
wise uttered ordinary common sense for
the benefit of DR.. Wilson and others.
Mr.. Clayton said Of the initiative and
referendum, that nostrum contemplating
the enactment Of law without the inter-
mediary OF a responsible deliberative
body:
'It is foreign to and inconsistent with,
and therefore destructive Of our scheme
OF government. Under such method the
electorate would act without necessary
information and without proper oppor-
tunity to form a wise judgment. Meas
ures not critically considered would be
voted by the majority upon the COM
munity, and the rights Of the minority
would be subordinated to the will of su-
perior numbers. In short, representative
government would be displaced and that
of a direct democracy substituted. OPP
preston and disorder might arise, and
might lead to the establishment of a
despostism."
We submit that the Southern end of
the Democratic party made a rather i'm
pressive exhibit on the glorious Fourth
of its conservatism, its political sanity,
and its adherence to those principles of
republican government held by Ameri-
cans generally to be axiomatic-until the
epoch OF the Open Mouth.

The Christian Endeavor Movement

+ The figures which show the growth of
the Christian Endeavor movement are
stupendous. In the last two years over
10000 new societies have been formed,
with over 100000 membership The
total worldwide enrolment is now
practically 10000 societies, with a men,
bership of 3,o53,ooo. The largest repre-
sentation, $1,000 societies, is in the
United States and Canada, and nearly
every country in the world has its
quota of membership.
The work which the society has ac-
complished presents an enviable record.
1t successfully opposed the display Of
moving pictures of the Johnson Jeffries
prize fight, it was especially active in
securing Sunday as a day of rest for
postal employees, it has done effective
work in the establishment of hospitals
and missions, and its labors in con-
nection with immigrants, educating
them and bringing them into touch with
tie best elements in our civilization
have produced splendid results. Its
missionary, temperance, and prayer
meetings have been attended by mil
lions, while it has carried joy into
thousands of sick rooms through the
distribution of flowers 1t is, as DR.

secret of its great strength.

ing further efficiency to the organiza-
ton. Already it has accomplished
much, but its enthusiastic members will

In n Different Glass.

From the New York American.
Mr.. John Hays Hammond does not de-
serve to come under the ban Of con-
demnation which Mr.. Henry so properly
places upon the sale of the republic $
dignities to mere money. Mr.. Hammond
is not a representative of hereditary
wealth, even II that in itself were a
political obstacle to preferment. Mr..
Hammond represents as thoroughly as
any other American of to-day the genius
Of achievement. What he has won he
has won himself by brains and daring
and ceaseless industry along lines of
honorable endeavor. and he is entitled
in his own merits to the honors which
his achievements have brought him.

On the Shores of the Potomac.

1t has long been matter of mystery
why the beautiful shores of the Po-
tomac River are not lined with hand
some villas. In the early days the coun-
try south of Washington, in the direc-
ton of Chesapeake Bay, was notable
for magnificent mansions and estates
North and northwest of this city, how
ever, most picturesque and attractive
section exists; where the air is pure
and the scenery pleasing to the eye
and yet it has been almost entirely
neglected.
The prediction of a Philadelphia
6anancier that within fifteen years the
Maryland and Virginia shores of the
river will be lined with villas that will
eclipse the grandeur of Rome is un-
doubtedly an exaggerated view. There
may be some development, but it will
hardly reach this extent In the first
place, the many residents of other cite:
who have erected handsome homes in
Washington have been inspired in that
direction by the cosmopolitan character
of the winter colony in the National
Capital. They have built houses within
the city because they want to be close
to the social swim. In the second place
wealthy people who seek attractive
country homes are not likely to select a
site as far South as the Potomac. The
shores of the Hudson River and OF
Long Island Sound offer much more
desirable locations.
Despite these two reasons, however,
it would seem as if the charming coun-
try along the upper Potomac should
induce many persons to locate there
If this can be done, and with estates
adorned by artistic homes and well kept
surroundings, the attractiveness of
Washington would be greatly increased.

Our Cavalry.

The failure of our cavalry repre-
sentatiyes to take any of the prizes at
the international cavalry show in Lon
don was not the fault of the American
officers, for it was plainly stated that
they were fine riders. It was the fault
of their horses, which could not meet
the requirements Of the exhibit II the
United States is to carry of. its share
Of the honors at future shows, it is es-
sential that it should proceed at once
to develop a breed Of winning
hunters, Jumpers, and chargers.
There are those who doubt the eff
eiency Of horse show tests as perfect
criterion Of the value Of the war horse,
