HONOtiTJLTJ, ILTJULY 22, 1KXL -.The administration at Washington, fs ftaUeaUr -waiting to bear thocllck of iii SaUaa's cash register. It looks as though cable connection trtth tic mainland would be assured to Hawaii by the next Congress. Ibor Day trill be properly observed is September in Hawaii. The hope of Hawaii Is in the character of its labor. AH things can be overdone; there are gone people in Hawaii, even, who. we fear, are in danger of paralyzing their political pall. Let every Republican get ready for the demonstration incident to the welcoming home of the delegates to the Philadelphia convention. The whole country will bo glad to see Dewey once more settle down to the Admiral business. There he shines, while in' politics he is an unpleasing spectacle. . Unless the Porte pungles up that hundred thousand dollars sooner, he will hear from Uncle Sam when this little trouble with the Chinese Boxers ;1r settled. Lookout for the Republican, or the protended Republican, that will find an occasion for creating factional strife in welcoming home the delegates to the Republican National Convention.' Thore Is one thing to be said for General William R. Shatter he allows the other fellows to do all the talking. He. meantime, continues to saw wood and to draw down a major-general's j!ary. Over In Pennsylvania the other day an elephant fell off a moving train and dislocated its hip. This cannot be construed Into aad omen politically; the G O. P. will march on to victory just the same. , Judge Estee's court will probably be open week, and he will have a great run of naturalization business. "Quito certain the judge will not demand petitions nor will he recognize Hawaiian stamps. Givo property owners their house numbors and givo local mechanics an opportunity to paint and put up the snnio on transoms, doors or posts. There Is every reason why this work "Should not bo done by tho government "While the missionaries have, of necessity, temporarily ceased to overturn tho religious beliefs of tho Chinese in their ,pwn country, they might And a promising field in tho large cities of this country to work on domestic heathen. Senator Hanna failed to vote to seat Senator Quay from Pennsylvania. -That's why Teddy Roosevelt of New York, instead of Secretary of tho Navy Long of Massachusetts Is Mr. running mate. Political debts are sometimes paid. Tho Young Women's Christian Association's club rooms, recently opened in the Elitj; building, on Hotel street, will be a godsend to many swung ladies who live in rooms or boarding houses.- No test of membership is required; all women are welcome. Harry Lee, who has held the decks with Leung Chi-Tso for a month past, has left for the mainland. To say that he "skipped" doesn't seem to be correct: tho gay and festive 'Arry was "pushed off." He never possessed sufficient energy to "skip." Roumania, one of tho old countries of the world, is apparently tho most illiterate in Europe. Tho last census shows that in a population of nearly six millions, about four millions neither read nor write and only about a million of the inhabitants have any education at alL - SIBI1 Let the woodsman sparo the ax in Honolulu and throughout Hawaii. The felling of a tree is tho labor of aa hour often the result of a thoughtless whim; its development into all its beauty was the work of ages. Spare the tree; stand for the beautifying of the Island. The eagle which originally decorated the stern of tho famous schooner yacht America which, first won what is now known as tho America Cup is now tho sign of the Royal Eagle Hotel, Isle of Wight, overlooking the sceae of the vessel's triuaaph over her English in 1S5L a tokea of the amicable feellas that aalantes the rivalry betweea the two great saariae aatioas of the world. Soe Wwl of the miseries of the poor creaturee who have beea shut up is Xafeklag can bo gleaaed froat the folio wiag extract fro, abetter received la writtea by the mother of four little girls, aad published ia tho Sydsy (Australia) News: "Whea Bhftll we be relieved? Svrely Bagiasd Nellie lie la the cszaeteryTbaby lis la her cot a and us I write ny tears fall on the pallid faca of Winnie. She is dying." Nothing cooM be more pathetic. With any camber of competent painters in town, why should the ties Interest themselves la sectsrins numbers for houses? It Is the ioslsess o the surrey department to give every property owner the number, or t numbers, of his lot and house and to e that he displays the same, but the EcrernmeEt has neither the right nor the power to make property owners accept lettering furnlshtd by the department That's running paternalism into the ground. Dr. A. Mouritz Is making a loud call on High Sheriff Brown. In a note to the Evening Bulletin of yesterday Dr. Mouritz uses the following stern language: "What has- become of Sheriff Brown's investigation into my professional conduct? Is Brown afraid of me or that Molokal kahuna woman? Possibly Brown hae got 'the staggers. Such calamity was a certainty when he relied on information furnished by the 'Bethel Street Ananias.'" And then Dr. Mouritz adds: "I challenge Brown to verify his case." It seems to be up against the Hight Sheriff. The Republican's special correspondence from Washington this morning Is unusually interesting. It sheds a new light on the Chinese situation, demonstrating the wise and statesmanlike diplomacy of President McKinley and Secretary of State Hay. Our correspondent who Is an excellent authority, is inclined to regard Russia as the Mephistopheles of the plotting and counter-plotting in the Orient If this viewshould be found to be the true one, then the troubles in China have but just begun, and the Anglo-Saxon alliance Is destined to play an important part in it. Meantime, while the nations nn.n ,1..,,. irtU In rl.lnnN there is promise of a substantial harvest of desirable things for Hawaii. It brings the California-Hawaii cable within nearer reach and under the circumstances the fortifying of Honolulu and Hilo harbors and the enlargrnent of the naval station at Pearl Harbor become an absolute and immediate necessity. Numbeh tho houses byall means, but let every property owner exercise his discretion as to the sort of numbering he will have. Do not let us have any " job " iu bouse numbering. The Postmaster-General of New South Wales appears to be incline -1 to ipnore tho improved mail service offered tho Colonies by the Oceanic ( Tho auth rfes of NewSoath Wales will probably discover thnt tho people of the Colonies cannot well do without this mail service, and Mr. Crick's dictum may have to bo recalled under ihe now order of conditions in Australasia. Ono thing is certain, the Oceanic Company will be able to do without the subsidy if Australasia can do without its mail. Here's an agricultural lesson enforced by the experience of a man that tried it on a small holding on the Island of Hawaii: "Fred. H. the energetic manager of Maunal lei plantation on Lanai, has succesfu raised and is now marketing in Honolulu- 'garden stuff' which offers a good reason to induce others to follow, potatoes, white turnips, carrots, cauliflowers, peas, lime beans, okra, onions and summer squash nro included in iu his first consignment, and the sale has netted a satisfactory return. Tjocal fruit and vegetable dealers call for 'more,"' That's the sort of farming that will help out Hawaii. God bless tho employes of the Honolulu Iron Works. They were fellow workmen of Eniil TJlbrecht and they haveraised $1,100 for his widow and his children, who were left penniless by tho untimely taking off of the unfortunate man. The desire is to raise $1,500, and L. II. Dee coterie of philanthropists who have the ambition to establish Mrs. TJlbrecht in a small.. down-town business, where she will be able to make a living for herself itnd babies. This is a proposition that should commend itself to all persons that are philanthropically inclined. - Japanese Laborer Silled. A Japanese laborer was killed at Ewu mill on Friday. He was employed in tho work of constructing the roof of the new mill, and was crushed by a heavy piece of timber falling on him. The American Girl. One of the deck hands on. the 3fauna Loa is called American Girl. Ho is a very youth, who has spent a good deal of his time on the Barbary Coast in San Francisco. He was dubbed "American Girl" because after a residence of several years on the Coast he returned to his native land chock full of stories of theJife and ways of the big city, and toll inquiries as to where he got his information he would answer, "one American girl, sho speake me about it.

WASHINGTON, B.C, retary Root is preparing a bill for the -reorganization of the regular army J even mors radical in Its natnre than f the 002. submitted in the last session. In order to obviate all antagonism from members of the statf of the regular I service, ths Secretary has sect a circular letter to all chiefs of bureaus, calling for their opinions relative to reorganization of the stair as applied to their individual departments. The Secretary said to-day lie had decided to have the new bill provide for the complete reorganization of tbo artillery along the same lines proposed in the old measure. It Is also intended by the Secretary to ask for relief for the cavalry. It seems to be his opinion that he cavalry should be increased from ten to twelve regiments, in order not only to give a lareer mounted force, bat to make promotions faster among j officers. An official in close touch with the Secretary says it is the intention of the Department to ask Congress for a standing army of not less than 75,000 men. An army of thl3 size, it is estimated, will bo needed to successfully cope with the situation in the Philippines. H. B. GEHR WILL SETTLE CONTRACTS IN THE EAST. Herbert B. Gchr of the Railroad" came to town by the Kinau' yesterday. He is on his way to the east to confer with the principal stockholders in the corporation and to make arrangements for letting contracts.
