J. PIERPONT MORGAN.

j. Pierpont Morgan is dead. He
controlled more wealth, although he
1as not the richest individual, in the
whole world. He was loved by many,
hated by many, feared by all. He
was better man than many thought
him to be. He was the greatest "cap-
tain of industry" the world has ever
produced. He is probably the great
est Captain of industry" the world
will ever produce, for the age that
made for the making of such individ-
uals is rapidly drawing to close. The
methods of accumulation permissible,
and even admired, in this present age
will, praise God, be relegated to the
dust heap of the ages in less than
fifty years. Not that, in the devel-
opment of the slowly advancing civil
lization, it was evil 1t was necess-
ary, or at least it was logical. But
the time will speedily come when it
will be impossible and undesirable for
one man to possess so vast a DOW
er Either governments as now run
Will have to perish utterly or the ten
dency of the wealth of the world to-
wards the hands of the few will have
to cease. 1t is either a plutocracy
absolutely in power or a development
away from the rule of money and to-
wards true democracy. In the death
struggle and in the final issue, de-
mocracy will win.
Moreover, men are beginning to
pause in the mad scramble for money
and to ask: whats the use?" Here
is the princely rich stricken with dis
ease and death. Life draws swiftly
to its close. There is no use in vain
lmaginings. The grave makes the
rich and the poor man about of one
size. 1t is coming more and more to
be recognized principle with rich
men as well as others, that it just
will not do to live for ones self alone.
That true happiness comes in contrib
uting to the help of the world; that
it is shame for a man to accumu-
late and in his wealth use it solely
for self. 1t is just to Mr.. Morgan to
say that he was ready to help the
world. In his own way and with a
lavish hand, he tried to help. The
best thing that can be said of him
now that he is dead, was not that he
controlled more wealth than any one
man who lived, but rather that he did
much to help others.

have come to pass In this territory
that if man gets into public office
here, even for so short a time as Mr.
Bishop has served be must needs
serve right along, nps vacation or res
ignation. He must not even die be-
cause it is the popular belief that there
is no one to take his place or is .capa-

Marston Campbell held office for
many months after his resignation
was handed in because it would seem
that the chief executive of the terri
tory was labofing under the idea tvery.
much mistakenly that sto one was
available equal to the demands Of the
Job.
But the man was eventually found
in the person of H. k. Bishop and he
more than made good during his In

and wants to quit territorial work for
something better, the same old cry
goes up. No one available to take his

Editor Honolulu Star Bulletin,
Sir:-Another word about the shred
ding and desiecating cane juice extrae-
ton process: find that besides the
MeMullen process for extracting the
juice from the sugar-cane by the above
process there is still another company.
the Guanica Central Co. of New York
and Porto Rico. that claims to have
made similar discovery and they
have secured a patent for same.
This process has also been tried by
the Nipo Bay Company at Preston.
Cuba, and they are said to be delighted
with the probable success OF the ex-
pertinent"
Experiments are also being made at
Ashland, Wis, where Mr.. Tenant Lee,
a paper expert. is making experiments
to determine the value OF the paper
made from this stock.
Mr.. J. Fl. Roberts and Mr.. q. G. Sim
mons are also said to be making ex-
periments along these lines and ARE
so favorably impressed with the proc
ess that they have decided to take a
controlling interest in it,
But as there are some doubling
Thomas" who are not quite so sure of
the success of this new process, would
it not be good idea TO get some ex-
pert chemist to make some expert
ments here and so decide for ourselves
what can really be done with this new
process?
II some of the money that is collect
ed from the planters for promoting
this industry was set aside for this
purpose, the cost OF the experiments,
and for making the apparatus would
not fall very heavily upon any one and
the knowledge gained from same may
be of the greatest value to all.

THE LITERACY TEST.

Editor Honolulu Star-B Bulletin.
Sir Since a visit to the Liberty
theater a few nights ago am ION the
fence regarding the application of the
literacy test in connection with the
immigrants desiring admittance to
Hawaii
At the abOve-named theater quite a
number Of national flags of different
nations were thrown on the screen. all
in proper colors.
As each flag was shown the silence
that fell over the audience could be
heard The American. English and
Japanese flags were the only ones that
brought forth murmur. and this In a
way that seemed as IL they were not
sure of It.
The chances are that not fifty people
in that audience of many hundreds
could have named the flags as they
were exhibited
It might be profitable to apply the
literacy test internally as well as ex-
ternally. PAUL JONES'
