What Is to be the Influence of pien

'I hit Is the first question that arises
III the minds of the so-called middle
liases in ever civilized coimiiiinlt.
IliW middle il.iss In Hawaii Is best de

History of our own Islands, our own
country and every other country on the
face of tho globe lias taught this les
son with such unfailing regularity, tint
none though a fool need go astray.
The phllantlnoplsts Know It, the prac
tical men and theorists know It, tho
middle class full appreciates tho fact
nnd the "newly rich" are not Ignorant
n! It, though the knowledge of thin laitt
class doesn't amount to much since
Its peopio are so taken up with their
own assumed self Importance.
Henco It Is that with tho onomice.
rrent that several thousand negro fami
lies are to be Imported to Hawaii, the
people renew the question, What Is to
bo tho Influence of the negro In the
homes of Hawaii?
The latest bulletin of the Federal de
partment of labor contains "a social
study" of the negroes of Sandy Springs,
Mar land. This thorough study of a
mixed community closo to the national
capital, surrounded by tho best of In
fluences Is not such as to ralso the
hopes of citizens of Hawaii when con
templating the Importation of large
numbers of negroes. The negro popula
tion of Sandy Springs dates back to tho
earliest dajs of tho American Repub
lic. Tho sentiment against slavery was
such that many were freed before the
Civil War. They had their schools
then, they liavo more progiesslve
schools now. Thej havo churches. Of
the fiS3 males and females In tho town,
00 per cent are engaged In agricultural
nnd domestic service. A good propor
tion of these negroes operate their own
fainis though ccniparatively few own
their homes.
Omiged by si.iioundlngs nnd oppor
tunities past and piesent. the negio of
Sand Sittings ought to bo a man in
woman of high standards If the race as
a whole has tapnelt for high develop
ment. 1'lgures do not show tho negro of
Sandyviilo to lie a criminal. He seems
to he Invv nhldliu. Hut what of the
home? What of tho surroundings of
tho thlldirn? illegitimate children
nro common: "Infoimnl separations of I
married people have been followed bv
more or less formal mnnlages with
third and fourth poisons;" "more than
oneo two widows have been seen ami
cably and decently mourning by the
bier of the same defunct husband "
These aro cited ns matters "that put
tho statistician In n dilemma " There
Is no necessity to diaw attention to tho
BlnndaitU of molality thereby exempli
fled.
Speaking of tho vnluo of negroes In
domestic service tho statistician sas,
"In splto of tho good rxnmplo given
them they do not seem In any large pro
portion nt least, to learn to honor tho
vvoik the havo chosen to tho extent
of doing It fiom n sense of duty,
promptly nnd tlinioughly. nor to re
finln from the wry human desire to do
something else more ngteenlile and less
confining. Tlieie is a small
giotip of women, several of thrm oil-
glnally slaves, who nio ns shining jew
els Intlio housekeepers' eves; but only
a few of them lire In domestic seivico."
Taken h nnd largo thin icpoit tends
to show that Hawaii Is to add to its
citizenship. Its community of homes, n
licoplo of lax morals, a people who
work not from a senso of duty or fiom
an interest In what the are doing, np
lrtesponslblo clnss that must lie edu
cated to higher standaids having fow
Inborn or racial teiidenc'fB to high
standards of citizenship or any marked
degree of thrift.
Is It ncicsiaty to tell (lip people of
these Islands, more partbularlj th ,
residents )t tlic outside dlstilets what I
will be tlie InlliU'iice of Impoilcd negro
labor selc (led by foielg n igents. In
large numbers upon the home.
UUI'OltM THE SCHOOL.
The Legislature will make n gteat
mistake. If It wastrs any time dlsi list
ing the change of name of the Uefoim
School to Indiisttl.il School.
It Is not (tie name Hint handicap any
boy. It Ik the character of tho school.
Tint tho name Itifoim School lias In
nnv way become a stigma upon the
mine or charaetci Is the best eldentc
that could pogllil lie offered to show
that the Itefoim School system needs
radical reformation.
Tho (perienee Hawaii Is hnvlni: Is
not new Eer State of the Nation
has gone through the same thing. Some
Slates tried to advance the ch muter of
their refoi matorles by changing the
name. It was found tho same stigma
wis soon attached to tho Inditsttlal
school. Other State lot the name
nloiie. icfouued the sv-dem nnd a a re-1
eull no bov leaving tln Heform School
found himself in am wnv Injured by
the name of the Ins'ltutlon from which
hi! graduated.
The most cffi-elve feature of reform
Misbehavior nsaurcs the boy being held
In the ip'itral building with certain
llmltatlot s to ills liberty. Omul beha
vior gives hltu the opportunity to he
transferred to a "cottage" presided over
bv a einster matron and teacher and
conducted uftir the manner of a mod
ern ho'tie. In bnt'i the main Institution
nnd cottages tegular hours for Indus
trial woik, schooling nnd amusement
are maintained All liojs are sentenc
ed during their minority hut may 'be
telea,i,)n two yi.us by good behivlor.
Thin the Inmate of the school, Is
....
. ciiiicmv teieaseil or Is given greater
freedom according to his personal con-
luet. He Is thrown upon his own re-
coures. It he has any higher Instincts
they are developed; If he has none he
1 kept out of mischief by being held
In the school; If he has come fiom n
degraded home, he Is taught In the cot
tage what a home should mean. All
bovs whether truants or thieves start
on tho same level. Tin Ir behavior tells
the story, rurtheimorc, they arc
waiched over after leaving tho Institu
tion and If they resort to their old ways
mo returned to tho school.
That a boy Is committed for truancy
does not mean that ho will necessarily
developo Into n better man than the
hoy committed for lniceny. The
Iliilletln can point to Instances of hoys
committed to a Iteform School for
mnnsliugliter who vvltlil nthreo e,irs
were teleased for good behavior and
aro now respected young men of their
Stale. It can also point to bos com
mitted to a Iteform School for refusal
to obey parents; they staed ten years
In the school by reason of continued
bad behavior and nro now In thn
state's prison.
Gentlemen of tho Legislature, don't
waste tlmo over tho name, but study
modern Heform School methods and
make this school In Hawaii worthy tho
good name which similar American In
stitutions bear. '

HAWAIIAN IN SCHOOLS.
The bill looking toward the instruc
tion of the Hawaiian language in the
schools of the Territory occunled the
attention of the Independents at their
regular forenoon caucus estcrday fore
noon. It seems that tho great majority
of those present were against It and, on
this account, the bill will probably bo
pigeon holed before finding Its wny to
the Legislature.
However, some of the Indeucndents
seem disposed to follow tho nchlec of
Superintendent of Public Instruction
Atkinson In regard to tho establish
ment of schoolB separate and distinct
from tho regular schools, where the
Hawaiian language may be taught.
In th eevent of the view meetlncr
with the approval of the Independents
now In caucus, the bill mentioned will
very probably be modliled and then
presented.
