EDITOR
WALSH OF MASSACHUSETTS,.

Former Governor Walsh of Massachusetts, is
such man as Hawaii may well be proud to
entertain. $685.. - ': r
In his public administration and in private
endeavor he has proceeded along the broad
lines of public welfare. He has campaigned not
on partisan platforms but on platforms whose
blanks are the interests of all the people. Since
coming to Hawaii lie has said in private con-
versation what people here have known OF his
political lifethat he places the interests OF the
people first and party designation second. And
as consequence, in his state OF Massachusetts,,
a state with hundreds of thousands of Republi-
can votes, he has been elected and reelected
and with the stanch support of Republicans as
well as Democrats. " j." VI
1t is of special interest to Hawaii that two
of the foremost features of his administration
have been the advancement of education among
the people and the development of health and
sanitation safeguards and measures For in
Hawaii public health and public education are
of paramount Importance ceza So
Proud of his Democracy and the principles
which have made him Democrat, he neyerthe-
less does not come to Hawaii as partisan. He
may be relied upon to view conditions here with
an open mind. In his eloquently- voiced concep-
ton of America as the country with mission
of democracy among the nations of the world
IA conception splendidly pictured in his re-
marks at the Country Club last night-he
raises a standard and an ideal in which Ameri-
cans of every political creed heartily join.

Favor MILITARY TRAINING IN THE
SCHOOLS.

Hawaii Is discussion of compulsory military
training in the schools, and the vigorous pro-
test made against any such system by a num-
Der Of citizens during public hearing, makes
doubly interesting the recent canvass of the
New York World among high schools of the
metropolis.
The Army and Navy Journal notes that the
theory of the pacfists that the parents of school
children are opposed to the introduction of
military training into the schools received an
other. setback this week when the New York
World announced the result Of postcard can
vass it had undertaken among the parents of
boys enrolled in the Dewitt Clinton high
school, the High School of Commerce and the
Stuyyesant high school, all in the borough of
Manhattan New York city. Of the replies re-
ceived from parents of students at Dewitt
Clinton, 1881 we're in favor of military training
and 405 were opposed to it, giving percentage
of .75.2. OF the parents of boys attending the
High School of Commerce, 887 were in favor of
military training and only 202 were opposed
This was Slipper cent. Replies received from
parents of students at Stuyvesant showed 1888
ID favor and 80 opposed, which works out at
81.2 per cent. Altogether, the World sent out
10000 postcards one-half of them going to the
parents Of students at three high schools in
Brooklyn. These last have not yet been CLASH
fed. The proportion of answers to the cards
sent out is unusually high for this kind of a
canvass. =

OPPORTUNITIES TO ALL.

Uncle Sam continues to afford the exiled
Mexican patriot full opportunities for life, lib
erty and the pursuit of revolutions Gen.
Huerta was allowed to live peacefully and
plotfully--in New York until he had his plans
ready to start revolt in Mexico, and he was
nabbed just before he began to carry them out.
Gen. Felix Diaz, nephew of old Porfrio, found
Uncle Sans soil hayen of refuge until his
friends down south of the Rio Grande were
ready to help him take the field against Car
rama. Then he sailed from convenient port,
Tampa, and ere this may be at the head of as
fine collection of patriots as ever poisoned
wells or lined up Americans to be shot against
a railroad car. As a country for temporarily
embarrassed revolutionists to temperate and
start life anew, ours is unequalled.
