CARLISLEIISCHOOL SUPERINTENDENT
SAYSlILIVE INDIAN IS GOOD INDIAN

WASHINGTON January A. -- The
Indian is finding himself He
is rapidly taking his place with the
white man as a good citizen true
patriot, self-respecting and self-sup-
porting workman and a Christian. So
Superintendent Friedman of the Car
Isle Indian School says in his report
just made to the commissioner of In
Gan affairs. The document, which is
printed at the Carlisle school, is re-
garded in departmental circles as one
of the neatest pieces Of printing ever
gotten out by the government, when
the question of reports is considered
Continuing, Mr.. Friedman says that
there is a great gap between the alb
original American of the days of Long
fellow and Cooper, with primitiveness
and savagery surrounding him, The
Indian of today, he declares, has put
aside petty warfare and intertrlbal
strife and is forsaking the roaming
from place to place, for the farm and
the workshop, and building a perma.

the report continues, and becomes

were usually underestimate by the
whites, it is being generally accepted

FRIENDS OF TAFT
RALLY TO HIS SUPPORT

WASHINGTON January 4.-The
dictum has gone forth from the white
house that friends of President Taft
must not attack Theodore Roosevelt
in their endeavors to renominate and
re-elect the president. Close friends
of Mr.. Taft are authority for the state
ment that he feels he has done moth
ing to warrant an attack on him or
his administration from Mr.. Roose-
welt, a member of his own party, and
he is not and never has been a party
to any plan to Smoke out" Mr.. Roose-
welt in a statement that he would not
under any circumstances" be a can
didate for the republican nomination
for president next year.
SO far as Mr.. Taft's political for
tunes are concerned, he probably had
more reason for self-congratulation to-
day than at any other time since he
came to the white house. The state
ment from friends of the president
that nothing but death" will prevent
him from being a candidate to sue
coed himself not only evoked formal
expressions from influential members
of congress in his favor, but brought
a large number of kilograms from all
parts of the country congratulating
him on his determination to fight.
No Stock in Roosevelt Wave.
Senators Crane of Massachusetts
and Nelson of Minnesota, both of
whom were charged recently with hay
ing written letters Offering Mr.. Roose-
welt support for denomination, called
at the white house and talked at
length with the president. Senator
Nelson expressed the opinion that
political veterans would have no trou-
bic in Analysing the meaning of the
present Roosevelt wave and indicat'
ed that he took no stock in it, Sen
ator Brown of Nebraska was outspok
en- for the president.
Assure Taft of Votes.
81 told President Taft that he would
have the twenty-four votes of Tennes
see on the first ballot and every ballot
thereafter, if there should be more
than one" declared Representative
Austin, the leading republican repre-
sentative of that state, after a short
talk with the President.
Senator Hepburn of Idaho predict
ed Taft's denomination and re-elec
ton
That was the kind of talk that EN-
anated from all the callers, some o
whom, however, were not disposed t
be quoted at this Time Senator
Crane, Nelson, Smoot, Dillingham;

ment familiar with conditions in
Kona will readily see. The only thing
to be done here is to instruct property
and householders, to oil their tanks,
remove all empty cans, bottles or other
containers of the sort, remove leaves
and other debris from their cutters,
and keep their premises as free from
trash of all sorts as possible. If they
do this, and they are the only ones
to do it and see that it is kept done,
they will suffer less annoyance from

BRIEF HISTORY OF WAILUKU CHURCH

The first building of the Waikiki
Union Church was erected in the early
part of 1867. Christopher H. Levers,
Edward H. Bailey and several others
then living in Wailuku were interested
in its erection, and assisted in the
work. The Friend of a somewhat ear.
lier date speaks of the work of the
ladies' of Waikiki in raising nearly
$500 toward the new building.
Rev. Thomas Gardner Thurston,
second son of Asa and Lucy c. Thurs.
ton, of Kailua, Hawaii, was the first
pastor of this church. He was ordain-
ed in the Kaahumanu church, and min.
istered to both the English-speaking
and Hawaiian congregations, begin
ming his work in the month of Oc-
tober, 1866.
The Wailuku Union Church was or
ganized, January 10, 1867. Rev w.
p. Alexander was moderator of that
council; Rev. s. e. Bishop D. D.. was
the scribe. The papers Of incorpora-
ton were issued the year before, on
October 10.
Those who formed themselves into
a body desiring recognition and hence
charter members of the new church
were, in the order given in the OF.
record book: Thomas G. Thurston, H.
F. Thurston, VIM. H. Bailey, Ellen r..
Everett, Chas. T. Kittredge NJ c.
Kittredge, Edward Bailey H. p. Bald.
win, Caroline H. Bailey and Mary A.
Alexander.
The first board of trustees of the
church was chosen as follows: Chris
TOPPER II. Levers, II. Cornwell, S.
Peck. The succeeding board consist
ed Of Samuel T. Alexander. Edward
H. Bailey and r. w. Everett.
On September 10, 1868, Rev. Mr..
Thurston resigned his charge, having
decided to leave the country for the
mainland. Rev. w. p. Alexander, the
honored Waikiki missionary, was the
next pastor of the church Succeed
ing him were Rev d. Dole, who had
previously ministered on Kauai, Rev.
F. II. Robinson, Rev. n. W. Lane, Rev.
d. Bisse, Rev John NJ. Lewis, Rev
Edward G. Beckwith, D. D. The latter
preached while pastor of the Makawao
church.
Some of the interesting facts con
nected with the history of the church
are that, on April 4, 1880, Edward H.
Bailey united with the church; that
from that date to the time of his death,
on November 5, 1910, he faithfully
served the church in many ways, and
for time was the only living mem
Der of the organization; that for a
long period G. b. Wells served as
trustee, and Judge VIM. A. Mckay
as treasurer; that on the first Sun
day in November, 1905, the house of
worship was opened after it had been
closed for several years and that at
the request of many of the former at
tendants of the church, Rev. Rowland
b. Dodge, the agent for the Hawaiian
Board for Maui county, was engaged
to hold service.
On August 80, 1906, those interested
in reviying the organization met and
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1912-01-22

voted to join the cnurch, on Septem
Der 6. At That time five people united

ter.
In December, 1910, the property OF
the church was condemned by the
county; land and buildings were APP.
propriated for government use.
The work on the new edifice began
in February, 1911 The cornerstone
was laid with fitting ceremonies on
May Z, 1911 The address on that oc.
casion was delivered by Hon. Selden
3. Kingsbury.
The new church building is the re-
suit of the hard and united work OF
the members of the church and the
board of trustees, who have spent
much time on the details of the struc-
ture and in raising the money The
floor plan was first worked out by the
minister of the church, with a view to
increasing the seating capacity by the
use of the Sunday school rooms, when
necessary The elevation and general
design of the outside of the structure,
the Gothic arch, uniform throughout
the building, and the truss are the
result of the careful work of w. K.
Patterson who from the very day the
board of trustees of the church ac-
cepted his liberal offer has put his
whole heart into the work of the cree
ton of suitable building for the wor-
ship of the church and congregation
of which he has been member since
July l, 1911. The firm of Emory &
reviewed the plans, making slight alt
erations in the building which have
added to its beauty and usefulness;
they also furnished the blueprints.
Hugh Howell acted as consulting en-
gineer, and has done faithful and eff
ficient service.
The furniture was selected by the
minister while in New York last win
ter. 1t was purchased through the
firm of Alexander & Baldwin r. e.
Smith, the New York buyer, chose the
color scheme for the windows, assist
ing the maker, Chas E. Hogeman, in
the selection of the designs. The gas
equipment was also secured through
the same firm.
The stone for the church was found
on the fields of the Wailuku Sugar Co.
and in the lao Valley The cross was
cut by Japanese workmen out of a
single stone from the land Of Mr.. and
Mrs. w, II. Field in lao, The asbestos
shingles and ohia flooring were fur
nshed by the firm of Levers & Cooke;
other materials by the Kahului Rail
road Company
The many gifts to the church from
loving friends, the memorials yet to
be added, make the building in every
sense a true monument to the work
of the early missionaries, their sons
and daughters, and those who in noble
lives have now passed from service
here
The gifts in money from people in
Hawaii and away show how deep an
interest many have taken in the prog
ress of Gods kingdom on Maui

delegations of their respective states
Massachusetts, Minnesota, Utah,
Vermont, Connecticut and Nebraska
would be for him to the end. Vice
President Sherman, eX-S3peaker Can
non, Representatives Mckinley and
Madden of Illinois and many other
republicans saw the President, most
of them giving him words of cheer
and encouragement.
Dr. Charles Barker, the presidents
physical overseer, today said he could
guarantee Mr.. Taft physical condi-
ton, so far as that entered his future
political activities.
Guarantees Fitness of Entry.
81 see you put your man in the race
yesterday" remarked a friend of Dr.
Barker, who knew his ability to Judge
the fitness of athletes.
YES, and l will guarantee he is fit;
he will not die before the finish line
is reached" replied the doctor, max
ing use of a technical athletic term
S. s. Gregory of Chicago, president
of the American Bar Association, and
the members of the executive commit
tee of that body Gale on President
Taft today to pay their respects. The
committee is in Washington arrang-
ing for the next meeting of the asso-
citation.
Politicians Shut Up.
Republican politicians at both ends
of the Capitol shut up like a trap to-
day over the Roosevelt-Taft situation.
Guarded talk in private conversation,
nothing to say for publication; this
was the policy of most of them to-
day.
It would be quite within the bounds
of safety to venture the assertion that
the opinion prevails widely among
leading republicans of the house and
senate that Colonel Roosevelt is
playing a waiting game as a receptive
candidate for the presidential nomin'
alton, provided conditions turn out
! favorable.
No Longer Scout 1t.
Men who a month ago secuted the
idea of Rooseyelts entry into the field
now admit privately that they can
place no other construction upon re
cent happenings than that he is hold
ing himself free and uncommitted, tC
announce his candidacy later if he
sees fit or to keep out Of the fight i
it promises to be a losing one.

and superstition, to a capable, self-sus-

cept in physical characteristics from
the white man.
While it was the custom number
of years ago to attribute every crime
and every offense against the law and
against civilized custom to educated
Indians, it is rare occurrence now

Education of Right Sort.
The nation is rapidly waking TO
the fact that education of the right
sort, which teaches the elements Of
knowledge, which does not forget the
moral nature, and which gives thor
ough instruction and training in some
vocational activity, is responsible to a
very large extent for the progress
which the Indian has made on al
sides. We find the Indian on the res
eryation is more productive and indus
trious Hundreds of Indians have lef

places in white communities as re
