FRIDAY
It Is nlways worth whllo for Ho
nolulu to stand by the llooatcr pol
icy. '
"When In doubt take Optimism"
does not appeal to a man without
honor or n despised Knocker.
Hepburn's bills for Hawaii have
nlways been Reasonably certain of
the. favornblo consideration of Con
press. J J 9 - - - I . ' '
Inciease of the National Ouaril to
a full-sized teclment will have a
good effect on the service In Hawaii
by bringing in a larger representa
tion from the outside districts.
Schmltz and Ituef free will fur
nish another opportunity for San
Francisco to show whether It Is real
ly tired of bolus good, and Is willing
to lot them stay free If they so de
sire. A writer In Success says tho Chi
nese (io eminent can stop the mas
mere of lluropcnns when it wants to.
The recent cablegram reports Indi
cate tliattho (ioernmcnt Is not as
fctrong as lie supposed.
Delegate Kuhlo Is a member of
tho House Committee on Territories
at the request of tho Committee's
chairman. That's a pretty good rec
ommendation of the desire of the
Committee that Hawaii be repre
hented. Senator Hale's proposal to Inciease
the pay of tho men in tho Navy Is
good. As to tho technicalities of thn
'consideration due officers of tho line
and those not officers of tho line, all
the people want Is a decision that
will assuredly lncrcaso tho clllclency
of tho American Navy.
KUHIO'S COMMITTEE PLACE.
The extracts from the Congression
al Hecord published in tills Issuo puts
a quietus on all political campaigns
that were hatching as a result of
Speaker Cannon's fulluro to appoint
Delegate Kuhlo to the House Com
mittee on Territories.
Hnwall's Delegate though left oft
the Speaker's slate gained member
(hip by tho unanimous consent of his
fellow Congressmen and possibly
strengthens his position as a result.
It Is quite probable that the. plan of
finally placing Kuhlo on tho commit
tee was understood before tho ap
pointments were made. Not having
a vote In tho House or In tho Com
mittee, the Dulegate could well af
ford to gho way to the deslro of tho
Speaker to place a voting friend on
tho committee.
Tho position of n Territorial Delo
, gate on tho commltteo In any event
Is a matter of courtesy. And, re
ceived at tho hands of tho House by
unanimous consent, tliero Is no occa
sion for any unpleasant feelings over
tho mattor.
t There Is no doubt that Hawaii's
IntorestB are being well guarded at
Washington and tho Territory's
friends have not become less.
HAWAII'S IMMIGRATION BILL

.Immigration bill Is a good point gain

CIVICS AND CEMETERIES.
The resumption of the cemetery
agitation renews the hope that this
i cully Important pioblcm for tho city
of Honolulu may finally reach a set
tlement.
Uvcry Hoard of Health for tho last
ten years lias had periodical strug
gles with tho subject anil llttlo piog-
icss has been made. Reports pre
sented to the Hoard from tlmo to
lime show there Is still work to be
done and tho iccoiumendnttons made
by the Hoard itself rccogntzo tho
fact.
The subject has apparently, been a
hard one to deal with because people
protest at tho-thought of the remains
ol dear ones being disturbed by an
official mandate, yet don't hesitate to
use a burial ground that Is perhaps
Insanitary and where old graves are
disturbed In making a place for tins
new.
It has been said of more than ono
good caitHC which linolvos public
protest from somo sections of a com
munity, that it has to advance grad
ually In order to allow tho sharp
edge of tho protest to wear off, or
the community bcctlons to become ed
ucated. If tho Clvc Federation has
tackled tho subject at tho psycholog
ical moment to overcome tho last
protest all those Intel ested nro to bo
congratulated.

It appears from the dispatch sent
to tho Columbus Sun of Georgia that
tho Democrats of Han alt wcro bunch
