1779-THE THANKSGIVING SPIRIT-1917.

THE following is sent out from Washington I'M
der authority of the Hoover bureau.
Juliana Smith writes to Dear Cousin Betty of
Thanksgiving notwithstanding was good,
though We did have to do without some things that
ought to be used Neither love (paper) money
could buy raisins, but good red cherries dried
without the pits did almost we'll
"Of course we could have no roast beef. Nonesof
us have tasted beef this three years back it all
must 60 to the army, and too little they get poor
fellows. But, Nayquittymaw's hunters were able to
get us a fine red deer so that We had good haunch
of Venisson on each table"
This was the Thanksgiving spirit in the midst Of
the American revolution. The colonies were en-
gagged in the war that made America safe for democ
racy. Observation-Disclosures America is engag
ed in war to make the world safe for democracy.
Juliana, writing in 1879, has given the text for
Thanksgiving dinner in 1917. She has made all the
points, the sermon is not needed: everything was
good-we do without some things-our cher
ries-roast beef for the soldiers.
As in 1879 let us plan feast of Thanksgiving
for 1917. Let us. thankful people, celebrate the
harvest festival with the fruits from our fields
The feast is in a sense sacrifcial Offering we
will do without many things because they need
ed by our soldiers But of old, whether the food
be plain or rich, let everything be good.

greet on the part of a great many people who knew
this able naval officer and kindly, genial citizen /.
Admiral Cowles and his wife and daughter iden-
titled themselves with Honolulu life during his tour
of duty here and had circle of friends wide as
that of any service family on Oahu. The admiral
was commandant at Pearl Harbor during period
of notable construction in which he took the keen
est personal interest, in addition to his careful Off
cial supervision. 1t was heavy blow to him when
the drydock collapsed on the day the first sec
ton was pumped out a disaster which set the
completion of this great project back for several
years. Admiral Cowles was among number of
army and navy men stationed here who enjoyed spe-
cial popularity for their personal and official quail
ties, and in whose local activities Hawaii was for

/ are more people in an area OF one
block in some of the cities than the
ontire farming population of any two
or three states, so where does the
farmer come out?
There can be no doubling the fact
that the farmer is the foundation OF
almost everything in this world. II
is their willingness to stay out on the
farm under adverse conditions that
makes it possible for the people to live
in the cities, or make the city possible
at all, but 1t is going to be the large
farm that will be worth while In the
future.
Some of the places we passed on our
journey were small farms in reality.
They had two or three horses, two or
three cows, and it took them the en-
tire year to produce food for them.
From early morning till late at night
they were out gathering fodder for
! their stock for the winter. If this is
peoples idea of successful farming,
let them keep the idea.
Personally, do not think that the
program of blending the many races
is such a serious one I think 1t is
already solved if the people would only
leave it alone. Some few people think
it will be very serious proposition
when some of the younger generation
come along to. the voting stage and
will take charge OF the government,
etc. You can be assured that the COM
ing generation will be fully equal to
the present generation, loyal and pa
triotic in every way. Some Of the
young people will scatter over the
world, seeking their fortune, just the
same as the people come to Hawaii, to
try and better their condition, from
other parts of the world. j
remain very truly yours,

"A CONSERVATION" MOVE.
(From the Maui News. }

(From the Maui News)
Something occurred at Haiku Wednesday Of
this week which. to our mind, was the crossing of
the boundary line between theoretical and practical
conservation of vegetables and leguminous food On
that day the cannery made the start canning string
beans for the market, the experiment to be carried
out in cooperation with the agricultural extension
division and the small farmers OF Haiku Five varie
ties of beans were included in the initial venture
The quantity of beans in the first pack will not be
large, but If success is met with, and the demand
proves anything like what it should be, the output
will be increased. =.
Now it is up to the consumers Of Maui to get be-
hind this experiment and make 1t success. 1t Is
not convenient for many people to get fresh beans
with the result that they buy the canned article
from the stores, shipped in here from California.
Let all such housekeepePs declare tabu forthwith
On imported goods and demand the Maui canned.
string beans. The store may not have them the first
day, but will lose time in getting then once the
demand is started.

VOTES FOR SOLDIERS.

Honolulu, Nov. %, 1917.
Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin.
Sir: Pardon this, as it we're glass
bottomed skiff ride, if you please!
but things seem to be skimn1ing very
much on the surface and it may be 4
good incubation" to erase small
fraction Of the cuticle of this Pacific
Paradise" and take peek into the
greenish attractions. .
While it is not the object Of Ameri-
can civilization to progress through
induction since all the moral precepts
lead from the heart out, yet there
must be an abstract standpoint OF
some depth in order to arrive at a
conclusion pertaining to any subject
whatever =.
Let us presume that in the course
of natural events the present feudal
system in Hawaii will vanish and she
will become Americanized. The only
thing about it that interests US is the
process by which this phenomenon is
approaching and which will eventually
bring it about. The writer candidly
believes that it is question Of such
ramifications as to indirectly con
Germ the whole world while directly
it is one of the most pregnant omens
to the United States.
Hawaii, "The Paradise OF the Pa
Ecific." Hawaii, THE Meltingpot of
the Races!' Hawaii, with her liquid
sunshine, flowers and volcanoes" to
America, is a novelty for tourists and
a military garrison, nothing more.
Now, everyone who knows anything
worth knowing knows that democracy
is militant or nothing. She sharpens
her wit and her sword on the same
grindstone and both are absolutely
indispensable to each other and the
civilization they uphold. -:
The conditions in Hawaii at present
are abnormal and undemocratic. II
the fundamentals were logically in &C.
cord with democratic institutions
every male-ciyilian and soldier
would be compelled to exercise the
right of suffrage within his realm,
both military and civil, to each and
every office that concerns him.
The times are moving in this direc'
ton. That is why Hawaii is called
the "melting-pot of the races" That
is the portentiOus question that con-
Germs not only the whole world indi-
rectly,. but that is the question that
concerns your Uncle Samuel directly.

We are engaged in Notwithstanding today, in the
defense of right thinking and right doing against
the German doctrine that nothing else matters sc
much as the German state. That there are dis
couragements and setbacks in our crusade against
this hideous doctrine is not to be wondered at But
here is the test of optimism 1t is easy enough to
be cheerful when everything goes WELL but what is
optimism worth that cannot gauge the storm and
yet outride it? Nations like men, must take counsel
of their hopes rather than their fears-and having
done that must help bring these hopes to pass by
unremitting labor and unquestioning sacrifice. -

DIPLOMATS in DOUBT
Recognition of New Government May
Be Put Up to Congress.

The status of the Russian Ambassador
at Washington, George Bakhmeten, ana
other Russian diplomatic and consular
officials throughout the United States, is
as yet unsettled. Whereas no doubt ex-
lists that the American government Will
very shortly recognize the newly formed
Russian republican government, it still
remains that from Bakhmeten down to
the last important consular official the
need for new exequaturs and the restitu-
ton Of these Russian officials in ONCE is
necessary before dealing with the Rus
sian government can be regularized.
The State Department Is informed by
Ambassador David r. Francis at Petro-
grad that the army and navy Of Russia
were standing firmly behind the new gov
ernment. He reported that quiet and or
der prevailed and the new government
had every appearance Of stability.
1t was suggested that, in view OF the
tremendous import of the changes in the
fundamental character Of Russia's gov
ernment recognition might take the form
Of a joint resolution of Congress.

ESCAPE ATTEMPT FAILS;
two DEAD; Two MISSING
lnterned Germans Run to Cover in
Marshes.

Two fatalities and a dozen recaptures
resulted from last nights futile attempt
of the interned German sailors at the
Philadelphia Navy Yard to escape from
their enforced internment. The runaways
were members of the crews Of the Ger
man sea-raiders. Kron Prinz Wilhelm
and EiteI Friedrich.
The account OF the recapture and the
expressed belief that Lieut.. Gorth and
Machinist's Mate Herman Schroeder were
drowned IN their attempt to swim the icy
Delaware was embodied in a report made
to the Navy Department yesterday by
2oLert L. Russel. commandant at League
Island.
According to Capt. Russell. four OF the
sailormen attempted to escape by land.
They were run to cover in the marches to
the southwark of League Island.
Some of the men made the attempt to
escape in their ordinary German naval
uniforms. Others wore civilian attire. All
the recaptured men seemed to be plenti
fully supplied with money.
Not having given UP hope that Lieut..
Gorth and Mate Schroeder may stil be
alive. the search for the pair still con-
tinues. The recaptured men are now in
close confinement in the Marine Barracks
prison.
