the sugar industry. Many other items on the

1t is yet too early to see what effect the adj

revision program will ALLEVIATE many of those

policies is bound 10 grow. The Republican
party, which is admitted to have a normal ma
jority of the voters of this country, will gain
strength as its warning internal elements come
to peace.
Furthermore, the country will be beginning
to get over its political indigestion and with

HAWAIIAN
SCHOOLS

/ Japanese pupils now form the most
numerous element in the Hawaiian
schools, and they are increasing at a
more rapid rate than any other race,
according to a statement by Governor
| Walter F. Frear, received at the Unit.
| ed States Bureau of Education The
! Japanese now have a considerable
| lead in the school population, with
over 81 per cent of the total; the
Portuguese follow with a little less
than IL per cent; the Hawaiians come
next with IA per cent; part-Hawaiians
! comprise IA per cent; Chinese, IL per
cent; and all other nations or races,
70 per cent.
Governor Frear gives other inter
esting information about Hawaii,s
schools. He shows how, after the es-
tablishment of the territorial govern
ment in 1900, the public schools Jared
worse and worse until 1907, when,
with increasing prosperity for the
islands, more ample provision was
made for education. Finally, in 1911,
new method of financing the schools
was adopted, under which there has
been a decided gain in the number OF
teachers, in salaries, Sad in general
efficiency.
Industrial schools that are partially
self-supporting are a feature OF tie
Hawaiian school system. There are
three such schools, and in addition,
the Normal School, the College of Ag
riculture and Mechanic Arts, two high
schools, and Isl schools of elementary
grade. A number of the schools main
tain city or county governments con-
Quoted by the pupils for practice in
citizenship, and patriotic exercises are
emphasized in all the schools.
There are now nearly 10000 chill
dren in the Hawaiian schools, about
twice as many as there were at the
time the territorial government was
established twelve years ago. The
territory last year spent S5S2,536 for
education, and the counties them
selves s47,799 additional. These fig
ures are exclusive of expenditures for
the College of Hawaii, which now oc-
cupies a permanent site in the SUBURBS
of Honolulu and has graduated its first
class.
The Hawaiian schools are up TO the
American practice in length of term;
their school year is SO weeks. Attend
ance is compulsory from s to II years
of age, the maximum age having been
raised from - a year ago. Good at
tendance records are the rule; the
average last year was Sc per cent OF

spects the schools of Hawaii compare

CASTLE EXPLAINS HIS POSITION
ON THE billboard QUESTION

business of printing and sending out
circulars certainly offer every legiti-
mate opportunity that any reasonable
business man could want for adyertis-
ing his goods.
+ Any attempt TO create sympathy
with the Pioneer Advertising Com
pany in the billboard matter seems
to me 10 be out OF place and unneces-
sary. TheT2 is an ample field for
placing a lot Of good business energy
in the advertising business with no
recourse to bfllboards, and in all prob
ability as soon as the billhoards are
eliminated the other lines in the adj
vertising business will increase, and
it seems 20 me that when the expense
of maintaining the billboards is gone.
the cost of keeping up and maintain
ing other advertising will be consid-
erably less.
In the hope that we may all unite in
this most laudable attempt to rid
Honolulu and the Islands generally Of
what is now a blot on our landscape,
and hoping that the advertising COM
pany here will more than make up
whatever loss there may be through
eliminating billboards. from their less
offensive methods, and trusting that
you will read these views to the gen.

THE FUTURE OF The REPUBLICAN PARTY

Though the Bull MOOserS from the Colonel
down to the last of the immortal boilers are
confident the Republican party is dead beyond
resurrection, signs are not wanting that when
1916 rolls around the c. O. p forces will rally
as of yore.
1t is true that the attempts of Borah, Cum
Minis, LaFollette and other leaders of the
party have not so far awakened much interest
in the country at large, but this is not because
Repubicanism is dead. Far from it. 1t is
because the country is suffering from a surfeit
of party politics and has to get over political
Indigestion before tackling the next meal.
The echoes of the Chicago conventions have
not vet died away. Thwarted personal ambi-
tions still throb painfully The steam-roller is
not forgotten, nor is the personal fight made
by Roosevelt forgiven by such men as Penrose
and Boss Barnes of New York.
For months on end last fall the public was
fed on bitter party and partisan politics. And
the country is weary of party politics now.
What the voters want is results from the
chosen administration.
There are still, and there will be indefinitely,
fundamental differences of opinion relating. to
governmental policies in this republic. These
differences make the party divisions The Re
publican partys protective policy Is funda-
mental policy. On such matters as the tariff.
monopoly control and currency reform it diff
fcrs vtally from the Democratic party and il
will continue to differ. But the differences be-
tween the Republican party and the Bull
Moose party are differences that can be adj
iusted without conflict in these fundamental
policies OF course there Will always be ire
prcssible and irreconeilable elements The Re
publican party must go on without them. Such
men as Penrose and Barnes have no more huSi-
ness in the Republican party of the future than
Billy Finn has in the Progressive party The
Republican party must be purgcd of its reac-
tionares, its .mercenaries, and once purged of
them, once freed from the clogging mud that
has impeded its movement forward into the
light of new day. Wilson has aptly
nhrasetl it. there will exist no iIreconcilable
differences between the Republicans and the
Progressiyes.
While these harmonizing movements are go

Dr. Charles Lewis Slattery, rector of

DR.. Slattery suggested that the use
OF psalms at divine worship should be

that hymns should be sung. If desired.
