The result is the sort of compromise seen in the recent County election in Oahu and in the present Industrial Outlook By the terms of the agreement under which this immigration has begun each family is to receive about 40 acres of land in fee simple, paying therefor at the rate of $5.69 per acre with 21 years in which to complete the purchase. This is the first great step towards the inauguration of the new industrial era upon these Islands. During the next twenty years no less than one million acres of government land are to revert to the public by the expiration of leases held principally in large tracts by individuals or corporations. These lands are to become the possession of small holders. V>y 1925 we may look for an entirely changed industrial system. Everywhere the peasant proprietor will be to the front. Sugar will doubtless continue to be produced, but under widely variant conditions. A vast number of other products will diversify our Island agriculture. Hawaii will then have become one of the garden �THE FRIEND. 4 spots of the world. Chief in inaugurating the change will be the Molokans, provided this first company be followed by others, as is now the general expectation. How fortunate for Hawaii that these owners and tillers of the soil are sober, industrious, intelligent, righteous, Cod-worshipping country folk, the product not of effeminate conditions, but of a stern climate and years of persecution for religious opinions; not the degenerate descendents of once dominant peoples like many South Europeans, but representatives of an emerging race, full of energy, whose evolutionary history is in the future! God is singularly good to us in blessing Hawaii with virile elements drawn from Eastern Europe as well as from Eastern Asia. side with our Hawaiian families. Coming over on shipboard these Russian Pilgrims held morning and evening prayers. They love, as much as the Polynesians do, "the assembling of themselves together." Where the Islander fails, however, in personal righteousness these former dwellers in the cradle-land of the Aryan race achieve their greatest success. They may be weak in theology, but they are strong in religion. Let us bless God for the coming of such men and women, and welcome them as brothers beloved.

Beckwith. With the inability of Dr. Beckwith to care for Wailuku, in addition to Paia, services were gradually abandoned. That the community suffered as a consequence is fully evidenced in the testimony of one of the leading residents of Wailuku, who remarked last summer that for years Wailuku had been degenerating morally. Meantime the Chinese, Japanese and Hawaiian interests of the Hoard were suffering for lack of inspiring leadership in the closed house of worship. After consultation upon the ground with representative people the Hawaiian Hoard determined to locate Rev. Rowland 11. Dodge at Wailuku to look after its varied interests. Immediately the local sentiment in favor of reviving the old Union Church awoke, contributibons towards repairing the meeting house began to flow in and regular services were resumed on November 5, 1905. The first communion service was held on January 7 of this year, cottage prayer meetings were instituted, the movement spread to Kahului and once more the Wailuku Union Church is alive and full of vitality Mr. Dodge is putting his splendid energy into the entire field and reports of his successful work with the various nationalities come steadily to headquarters from many sources.

The mission station, started some months ago among the Chinese rice planters of llauula and Punaluu, is doing well. Mr. Un Tak, the Chinese minister in charge, has a school now of from 30 to 40 bright Chinese boys and girls. They are learning to sing some of the Gospel songs, and repeat Bible verses, and enjoy the day school and Sunday school very much. The picture shows four of the larger Chinese girls of the school. They go to the government school in the morning and come to the Chinese school in the afternoon. Every Sunday morning there is a good number of the Chinese who gather for a meeting at the Hawaiian church. At a visit made a short time ago, over one hundred Chinese gathered at the church. They seemed to enjoy the Gospel meeting very much, and at its close were in no hurry to leave, but stopped to ask questions and tell how much pleased they were with the meeting. Since the Chinese work has been started here, the attendance of natives at the Hawaiian church has much increased. The Hawaiians have seen the Chinese going to their church, and have made greater effort to go themselves. The Chinese and Hawaiians are most friendly, and gladly have their meetings together in the same church building. The Hawaiian pastor has been most kind in helping the Chinese in many ways. The Chinese of Hauula are especially a fine lot of men, among whom we are starting our mission, because of the fact that such a large part of them have their wives and children with them. Perhaps at no other plantation on this island are there so many Chinese families gathered together. They take a deep interest in the education of their children, and are showing their appreciation of the mission work by a good attendance at all the meetings. Although at present there are no Christians among the Chinese here, it it the hope that before long some will take a definite stand for Christ. The field is promising, Mr. Un Tak is doing good work. The teachers in the government school there are much interested in the welfare of the Chinese of the district. By this co-operation of the various nationalities at Hauula, the work gives promise of a bright future, which will mean much for the Chinese of this beautiful valley. E. W.

Though there seemed scarcely time sufficient, the letter of welcome, translated into Russian by Capt. Demens, was duly presented in both languages. Its English version is as follows: Honolulu, February 2, 1906. The Hoard of the Hawaiian Evcngclical Association to the members of the One Hundred and Fifty Families of Our Brethren in Jesus Christ Known Popularly as Molokans Who An- About to Embark for the Territory of Hawaii, Scndetb Greeting. Grace, Mercy and Peace be unto you from God our bather and the Lord Jesus Christ. < )ur hearts have been deeply stirred, Brethren, as we have read the account of the many persecutions and banishments which you and your fathers have been called upon to sulTer during the past one hundred years. Your many tribulations have taken us backin mind to the tunes of our own natural and spiritual forefathers who, three centuries ago, were forced to leave their own native lands, England and France, in order to seek a country where they might worship God according to the dictates of their consciences aiid might found "a Church without a Hishop and a State without a King." Thus we look upon you as brothers not only in the Lord but also in a glorious history of suffering for conscience sake. Your coming to Hawaii is like the migration of our own fathers to America. Here, however, you will find no savage men, no wild beasts, no climate terrible with cold, no starvation as our fathers did in bleak New England. Instead you are coming to a land of Christians glad to welcome you as Comrades of the Cross, to a genial climate and a fertile soil where the rewards of �7 THE FRIEND. toil are many and the gifts of God abundant. We, your spiritual brethren, welcome you to these blissful islands. Here our fathers planted the Cross of Christ more than eighty-live years ago. Here the marvels of Pentecost were repeated. Here religious liberty exists for all. Here education is universal. Here the state is the possession of the citizens and the individual alone is king. Here you may worship God as your consciences dictate. \\ c greet you as soon to be our fellow citizens in this free commonwealth of equals. We wish you to regard us, the children of the great missionary movement, as your brothers. We bid you welcome to our churches and crave a like privilege of meeting in your services with you to praise our common Lord and to worship the ( me bather of us all. Will you not suffer us, who bear the name Christians, to be to you as fellow Molokans and will you not be to us as Comrades in our own work for Christ? We wish to know you and we desire that you know us in order that all may stand together in the .'»f Evangelical . glorious work of establishing the kingdom of God upon earth and in transforming these islands into a prophecy of heaven. This was signed by all present at the meeting of the Board, viz: I', t [ones, S. E. Bishop, G. P. Castle, W. W. Hall, 11. Bingham, F. K. Archer, T. Richards, W. 1 >. Westervelt, F. W. Damon, A. F.

This unexpected welcome deeply moved the simple minded peasant folk and produced a lasting impression upon them. Meantime the Hoard voted that all of its members who could do so should constitute a special committee to greet the Pilgrims On their arrival in Honolulu harbor. On the afternoon of February 19 therefore as soon as the whistles announcing the sighting of the steamer China sounded, those fortunate enough to hear them hastened to take the Custom House launch, which had been very kindly thrown open to Mr. Castle and his friends by Collector Stackable. Four of the members of the Hoard, Messrs. O. H. CulickYT. Richards, |. L. llopwood and 1 were fortunate enough to be on time. Reaching the China Mr. Castle was surrounded by the grateful company, who testified their gratitude, not only by their message, "We are willing to lay down >ur lives for you," but also by their beaming faces. Soon the Hawaiian Hoard party was introduced and then a new look shown in the simple sturdy tell tale countenances, a look only seen in the features of those whom Jesus has redeemed. It was a greeting of brothers, a scene that will live forever in the memory of the participants. The Molokans called at once for the Hoard's letter.

Arrived at the dock other members of the Hoard and representatives of all the Protestant religious organizations in town were present to add their welcome. Soon Governor Atkinson, Land Commissioner Pratt, together with numbers of leading business men and citizens crowded to the wharf to catch a glimpse of the long expected Molokans. Many remained until nearly 7 o'clock when the steamer Iwalani took the company off to their new home on Kauai. The Hoard hastened to complete its pared.

If through so many conflicts, and in spite of so many sufferings, the Reformed Church of France is still standing, it is because its role is not yet ended, and because, in the plan of God, it has a great mission to accomplish in our fatherland.

Frenchmen, true sons of our people, closely united to all its destinies, in the sincerity and rectitude of our conscience, we can bring to it the solution of a formidable problem, that of the relations of Church and State. It is for us to prove that a Church can exist, independent of party politics, respectful to all beliefs, hostile to all intolerance, and making of religion only the worship of the soul. It is for us to loudly proclaim that the religion of Jesus Christ, in its immortal simplicity, responds most profoundly to the needs of the soul, whose liberty it respects, while guiding it to the truth and to eternal life. It is for us to declare that no people can live without religion and to repeat the words of a great thinker, "Protestantism is the religion of modern times." Religion of liberty, where no one claims to impose his authority; religion of the conscience, exalting only the teachings of Christ; religion of progress, recognizing the victories of science; religion of love, devoting itself to human miseries in order to succor them without humiliating them. A Church which is the guardian of such treasures cannot perish. Our duty is then to maintain the Reformed Church of France, which may be that leaven of which Scripture speaks, which leaveneth the whole lump. To maintain it in the past, the Huguenots sacrificed every thing. The poor, the rich, the learned, the ignorant, shrank neither from exile nor from death. Today the funeral fires are extinct, and no fear makes us shudder, but nevertheless a certain anxiety oppresses us. Will it be possible to replace the budget granted by the State, with the budget raised by the generosity of Protestants? Shall this Church cemented by the blood of martyrs fall into poverty? No, this thought must THE FRIEND be rejected; our fathers gave their life, and shall we not give our money? IS EVIL IMPENDING FROM CHINA? Shall we let our glorious Reformed Church of France become bankrupt ? When the approaching hour of sacrifices shall have sounded, the poor man, like the widow of old, will give his mite, and the rich man, as formerly in Israel, will offer his tithe. Our duty is then to close up the ranks and to face the danger. Let no one desert the combat. Who then could forget it of those who claim for themselves, with a just pride, that grand past) for, to us as to our fathers will be realized, if we prove ourselves faithful, that sacred promise: "F"car not little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the Kingdom," the kingdom of truth, of love, of righteousness. It cannot be denied that of late the political sky has been very dark in the West. There has already been some local commotion in China directed against white foreigners, and some murderous violence has taken place. It is natural that rumors should lie circulated of more violence being intended. It may be that a great storm is about to break, or it may be that it will quiet down. ( me cannot judge. We can only hope and earnestly pray that no great outbreak may take place. America would be more seriously affected by such trouble from China than Europe.

China is moved to learn from Japan by what art and secret of strength victory was achieved. And she is also undoubtedly moved to make assertion of her own superiority and independence of the foreigner's arrogant assumptions. China begins to learn science and wisdom from the outer world. And China is arming. The white nations hereafter have to deal with a skilled and capable yellow race larger than Europe, which is becoming equipped for war. It is a most formidable outlook. It behooves Europe, and especially does it behoove America, to deal most wisely, most forbearingly, most patiently, with this awakening giant. The storm is very dark and threatening. It is liable speedily to break with violence. If such fury of wrath on both sides is to be averted, it must be done by the wisest and best-restrained meeting of the kindled Oriental passions by the white Powers. It may be that the sanctified wisdom of experienced Christian missionaries may contribute essentially to pacification. Or it may be that tidal waves of tempest may overwhelm for a time.

Delaporte is the latest word from our missionary Nauru, Dec. 19, 1905. Rev. O. 11. Gulick. Dear Sir:—We had an unexpected visit these days from Mr. and Miss Gaze of Sydney, and I will take this opportunity to write a few lines. We are all well on Nauru, and the work is flourishing. We have repaired and enlarged our church building. Many new Meetings arc crowded. people arc coming. We did not receive our printing press with the last "Germania," but hope to do so on March 2nd, 1906. In the meantime I am mimeographing Mark, Luke and Acts and will bind it for the people. As both you and Dr. Smith suggest to print the New Testament here on the field, I shall endeavor to do so. This entails much work, but trust to be able to do so. However I shall need about $100 extra to buy the necessary material, such as paper, card board, etc. Mrs. Delaporte was very ill about a month ago, but is better at present. : 9 �THE FRIEND 10 Christian brothers also spoke; then after the meeting we had a social time with ice cream and cake for refreshment, then the fire crackers, which some of the men brought with them, was fired off in yard and the meeting was over. Ido not often have a chance to meet all these people in town and was glad of the opportunity to speak and tell them about the Bible and Jesus' love.

There has been no sickness; nothing to interrupt the regular work < )nly one of the seventy-five pupils, who entered last September, has left school. We still adhere to the half-day system, viz: one-half devoted to industrial work and one-hall to academic. We feel that considerable progress is being made in the way of raising the standard of scholarship. Our teachers arc all women of experience in some of the best public schools of the States and are making an effort to hold the pupils to the same grade of work as far as possible. Of course we realize that not quite the same progress can be made owing largely to the fact that English is not the native tongue of our pupils. One of our special interests is the Improvement of our grounds. We have ample space, a very good supply of water, but very few things growing. We have no money to expend and so we are trying to do with our own hands all that we can in the way of planting trees, both fruit and forest, shrubbery and flowers, and have started a nice vegetable garden. There is very little time to be spared from other work, and we sometimes feel almost discouraged, but do not mean to give up. Kona Happenings. Kona has been before the public, in the last few months, in a way far from pleasing to those who have its true welfare most at heart. There are now ten saloons in Kona, instead of two—and more applied for. Can it be possible that there is any connection between these saloons and the various disturbances above referred to, or is the only connection in the spirit which will allow these as well as open defiance of the law in other matters? Lillian M. N. Stevens, president of the National W. C. T. U., writes: "The saloon-keeper agrees not to sell to minors, nor to drunkards, nor on Sunday; but 1 have never known one to conform to these requiremets, and 1 have known them in every State and Territory. The liquor-seller resents and resists every effort which tends in any way to curtail his business." Conditions in Kona could scarcely be better from the liquor-seller's point of view. As to the other disturbances, perhaps the less said the better, for our own sakes as well as to shield from shame those in authority whose duty it is to attend to such matters. We are thankful for some temperance sentiment, for forty-nine pledges have been signed at the writer's request, including twenty of the twenty-two members of Central Kona Church. To the shame of the church in general, it must be said that not only members, but deacons have signed permission for the location of saloons. The time of your correspondent for several months has been far too largely taken up with building operations. After a weary search land was secured for a home most centrally located, Opposite the Central Kona Church and public school. The view is magnificent, enough in itself to keep one from getting very lonely. The house is erected, and foundation laid for a small social hall near the road, to be used for reading and games, and a place for the meeting of classes. The conclusion has been reached that a man must be considerable of a Christian to be able to go through the disappointments of house-building without at least cracking his character. We trust ours is healing. At Holualoa our pretty thousanddollar chapel is completed, and will be dedicated in March, immediately after the Puna Association meeting. The Hoard is to be congratulated on its Holualoa property of chapel and parsonage, the latter freshly painted through •he kindness of Mr. Scott. Because of these buildings so necessary for any enlargement of work, nothing new has been attempted, although all the services established have been continued, with the exception of the pastor's class for young people, which reopens this week. It is a pleasure to watch the growth in character of certain of these young friends. Several always bring Bibles and follow the reading of the Script ores with their eyes as well as iheir ears.

The subject of Church Discipline and Reconstruction of Deacons has been receiving the attention of the Hawaiian Churches of Kauai of late. Sonic months ago the Island Association appointed a committee consisting of the active pastors to confer with the churches and endeavor to raise the standard of the I Vaconttcs. This committee, as ,i whole or in part, has made the tour of the island and affect innately, but faithfully pressed the matter upon tin' attention of the churches. In one or two cases the recommendation has been more <>r less openly resented, on the ground that it was purely a matter of interest to the individual church, with which the Association or the other churches had nothing to do. Further that any attempt at reform would be Mtri' to result in disssension and strife so that we would have two evils instead of one. "Let the tares and the wheat grow together until the Harvest !" Most of the churches, however, have responded most cordially and have taken immediate steps to improve the conditions. At Ilanapepe the Deacon in office was approved and confirmed as of good report. At Koloa two new Deacons were elected, .me representing the English and the other the Hawaiian elements of a union church. At Lihue, all the officers of the church resigned, and the more worthy ones were re-elected. At Kapaa the same course was pursued. One or two other churches have not yet taken ac- tion. The reconstruction, the discussion therewith, the impressive induction ser- vices and the earnest admonitions of the visiting committee have done much to tone up the standard of the Deaconate and will doubtless leave a valuable impress on the churches.

"Only in acceptance of the same truth can Christians of the present day hope for success." Again, speaking of men distinguished for efforts to spread the Gospel, he says they were "men who were lifted above the common plane within the church, simply by taking to their hearts Christ's word and mission, while the great body of Christians passed it by." "More and more it is impressed upon me that this association of ours has the elements of a great power, of a nature which no other organization in the broad Pacific, or the world, possesses. More and more is it evident, too, that notwithstanding the successful efforts of the past, there is still an immense strength which this society is capable of exerting, which is practically lost sight of at present. The history of the Cousin's Society is one of peculiar interest. The inception of it by a few earnest ones, who grafted into it the spirit of a devout and prayerful purpose, and its development up to the present time, we love to dwell upon. Most pleasant it is to feel that the waves of blessing which it has sent forth have reached other shores * and helped in sustaining the life of and many noble undertakings* above all, to hope that what has been accomplished may be as the early morning to the high noon of enterprise and achievement yet awaiting us.

I think he very justly argues that the "future glory and symmetry of your society depends on a deep and spiritual awakening of all hearts to the earnest individual work which is to be performed." I think he very justly says, "If there be any shadow of a cloud over you, it will be found in the fact that this great and vital secret of our success is too often forgotten." [I give not the precise words, but *the idea which they give me.] "We have a mission brought to us from the great Chinese Empire, and placed at our very doors.

After dinner we had some music and the officers would have been glad to dance with our girls, but they refused. A cannon was fired and one of the girls pulled the trigger.

Dr. Graham also called and Dr. Rooke, Mr. Baragan (a Chilian officer) and Miss Goodalc, so we had quite a party. They played games with the children. We brought out cakes, raisins and lemonade, after which came a loud rap at the door and a serenade from a hand of music (vocal entirely) raised us all on our feet. The door was opened and an elegant fruit cake made its appearance, the frosting beautifully ornamented with colors and Pauahi's name in the center. The music was in German language and it was exceedingly fine. It was from German sailors who were directed here, I suppose by Dr. Graham, who also sent the cake, although he seemed very ignorant. After the musicians had sung a long time, we invited them in and gave them refreshments. They could talk a little English. They had exceedingly fine voices and made sweet harmony. THE FRIEND rather to compliance returned without having seen any of us. We are fearful she would think it resulted from the teaching he had received from us, so I sent her down a pie and invited her to come and take tea. He is a very affectionate child. Almost always cries when she comes here and the children laugh at him about it, and he prohably sent her off for that reason. He cried some tonight and she sent for me to come and speak to him to allow her to return. I went and told him to he a man, kiss his mother and bid a good-bye, and if he did so she would come again to see him. He agreed to do so and hchaved very well indeed. She has found out we can manage much better than she can. I am surprised myself at the influence that we have gained over him and the other children. The king sent us up a turtle and we had a fine turtle soup. IN MEMORIAM. Mrs. Rebecca Hualani Lyman went The Sunday Perplexity. to her rest on Thursday night, FebruSabbath Evening, July sth. ary Ist.

IV. and V., where her capabil- itics in these lines made her valuable and welcome. "These characteristics were prominent through her life, and aided in making her a success as a school teacher and principal. She taught till her marriage, in iBfY>, to Rufus A. Lyman, when she found a new home in Ililo. Princess Ruth was at that time governess of the island of Hawaii. Needing a capable assistant, she appointed Mr. Lyman Lt. Governor, in 1868. Mrs. Lyman's experience in Honolulu social life, and the customs of court entertainment, now stood her in good stead in the duties of hospitality required by her position. Always and everywhere Mrs. Lyman showed her remarkable ability in leadership. Not only in the training of a large family in habits of honest industry, but among the servants of her household, and among the Hawaiian families, who were her neighbors, in different homes, she exerted a good and ennohling influence." In tracing the history of the religious movement in Ilonokaa, I find her name among its chief promoters. Mr. Lyman took his family into that district in 1878, and engaged in cane planting for about 13 years. During that time their home was a center of religious influence; first for the Hawaiian laborers and their families, then later, in 1884, they took active part in securing the erection of the Lyceum, to be used chiefly as a place of worship for English-speaking people, and where it has been my privilege to preach the gospel in monthly services for the past five years. The people °f Puns arc equally indebted to Mrs. Lyman's devotion to the cause of Christ, and the Spiritual welfare of her people. In Hilo her name is interwoven with the history of the Foreign Church from the days of its small beginnings in the little Rethel, with Titus Coan as pastor, until the present. Often, at the Waiakea bridge, has she. with other Christian workers, gathered the natives together for worship, and has watched with interest the development of that work into the present Waiakea Mission. Mrs. Lyman was one of the organizers of the Hilo Woman's Christian Temperance Union, and was its president at the day of her death. And now the King eternal has said. "Well done good and faithful servant," and she has entered into the joy of her Lord. C. W. HILL. �15 THE FRIEND. ANNUAL MEETING FOR 1906.
