The CONSTANTLY increasing arrivals Of Chinese
and the gradual occupation by that race OF the
places heretofore held by the native Hawaiians,
has at length had the effect to arouse the latter
to something like an appreciation of the situa-
ton and the danger of their being pushed to the
wall by the Monaghan element. So far there
has been merely a good deal of talk among the
natives about the encroachments of the 40 Pake,''
but the probability is that a strong influence
will be brought to bear on the next Legislature
to do something towards checking the influx of
male Chinese. The Hawaiians are beginning to
comprehend that the C~hinaman, by reason of
his qualities of ~plodding industry and thrift
the very qualities which the average Hawaiian
laeks-are slowly but surely occupying the land,
and they don't in this case subscribe to the doc
trine Of the survival OF the fttest. Naturally
enough the IeeIInS or sSIi-nreservation is aroused
In the natives Of the soil at the wholesale way in
which John is coming in upon them, and, with
his smile so childlike and bland, usurping their
tarO patches and house-lots. We hear that a
public meeting of natives and foreigners is pro-
posed by the natives for the purpose, as is
stated, of " discussing any legal or constitutional
means Of staying the tide Of Chinese male immi-
grafton which threatens to overflow the
country Application was made for the use of
the Kaumakap;li Church in which to hold the
proposed meeting, but the Committee of Trustees
refused to allow it to be used for that purpose.
Perhaps some other suitable room may be OBJ
tanned, but if not, an open-air meeting can be
held, after the style Of the " sand-lot " assem-
blages OF San Francisco.
Employers of Chinese as laborers and the ex-
tremely b~rOadminded philanthropists will preach
Of the good qualities of industry and thrift pos
sessed by their proteges, and remind us that the
Almighty has created them and given them the
right to dwell on the earth equally with the rest
CT mankind. So also it may be added, the ALI
wise has created many other living things-cock-
reaches and centipedes, for instance-but we in
stinctively decline to familiarity associate with
them, Notwithstanding their high origin. The
instinct Of eli preservation in the Hawaiian as
well as the Caucasian is antagonistic to any fell
lOwship with the non-assimilating Monaghan.
With US at these Islands as things are going
there remains one OF two courses-either we are
to bring the Chinaman up to our standard oil
Christian civilization, or he will drag us (Haw-
aiians) down to his level of Paganism. And the
former is an impossibility.

The above amount was all in Trade Dollars, eX-
cept $500 in Half Dollars last August and $500 in
Half Dollars and SIS. 600 in Gold in June. The
October and November shipments were manifested
as above, though in each case the amount sent was
$50, 900 in Trade Dollars. This increases the total
for the year to Sl36 $50. This is probably u larg-
er amount OF coin than has been imported at Hon
olulu In any previous year, but it has not kept
pace with the increase in the volume OF business,
and hence though there is more money at the
Islands than at any previous time within the past
few years, there is more stringency in financial
circles. This fact has been observed for several
weeks and has eliminated in large shipments this
month. The last Australian steamer, which left
here on the 7th took down S65. 900 to Honolulu,
OF which S3l coo was in Gold coin and S34, 600 in
Standard Dollars, The Bank Of California sent
down S35. 900 OF the above amount, and Williams,
Blanchard u Co. the remainder. This is the first
lot Of Standard Dollars of the present coinage eX-
ported from the country. Adding this amount to
what was sent down during the previous year,
makes a total of u little over $500, 600 which has
been added to the currency of the Hawaiian Is
lands since July l. 1878. Despite this large in
crease, money appears to be scarce there, and
credits are extended to tue utmost limits. The
quarterly settlements for June Both were quite I'M
satisfactory, many parties being obliged to ask for
a continuance. The arrival of the Sos. 900 sent
down on the 18th may help some OF these delin-
quents.to square up A comical feature in this con-
nection is the statement made by a Honolulu
paper that debtors not only avoid creditors in the
usual ways. but they decline to receive bills at
the hands of those sent to deliver them. In these
cases the parties put out baskets or boxes at the
doors, labelled :" bills and the collectors drop
their statements into these receptacles, and call at
some future time for a reply. Just imagine any
considerable number OF merchants on California,
Front, Battery, and Sansome streets pursuing a
similar policy, and some idea will be formed of
the perversion OF the credit system at Honolulu at

In conclusion we may remark that the IN
ference sought to be drawn that there is an
impending financial crisis here and that there
are many worthy men in cur midst who are
now struggling hard to keep their heads
above water,' is quite unauthorized by the
facts and calculated to give 4 wrong and in
furious impression abroad. Whether the policy
Is a wise one or not. it Is nevertheless
true that there is more mutual iorbearance-
not to say sentimentalism--among business
men in this community than in almost any other on
the face of the earth. But Notwithstanding the
present inconvenience from the stringency in
the money market resulting from very obvious
causes, we have the satisfaction of knowing
that the ultimate prosperity Of the country is
not an e~phemeral one, but upon an assured
basis-the profitable cultivation of the soil
and a near market for our products.

Hawaiian Methods of Business.

Parties who have recently returned frsm Ho-
nolulu express the conviction that business Is
being forced at the Islands to a degree that Is
likely to prove disastrous, should there be any
crop failures or other miscarriage OF plans and
enterprises. Since tue passage Of the Reciprocity
Treaty all departments OF industry and commerce
have taken on a rapid growth. This has been es-
pecially noticeable during the last year. Goods
are arriving from San Francisco. Portland and
other foreign ports in unheard OF quantities, and
it is clear to the most casual observer that imports
are in excess of The consumptive wants of the pep'

Opinion by Judd, J.
This was an action of ejectment for a piece Of land at
Kaneohe, Roolsupoko, Oahu, heard at the October Term
of this Court, 1878. The jury rendered a verdict for the
defendant. The point upon which the case turned was,
whether the plaintiff was the cousin tkaikunane) of
Kalele, the widow of HinRAimalAma, the original Paten-
tee. Hinaaimalama died leaving a son who was drowned
in infancy; its mother Kalele surviving him, became the
heir Of this estate. Kalua was proven to be the brother
Of the patentee, and, it is clear, has no inheriting rela-
tionship to Kalele, the person last seized of the estate.
A motion for new trial was made on the ground of
newly discovered evidence, and the afhdavits filed dis
close that the plaintiff is now prepared with evidence
new witnesses are from a distant portion Of this island,
of whose existence, it is not TO be presumed, the plaintiff
was aware. However, were it not that the defendant has
shown afirmatively that he has no title by inheritance
to this land we should hesitate TO grant a HetC trial, as it
is not clear that they could not have been discovered by
the exercise of diligence. The plaintiff apparently
thought it was sufficient to prove to the jury, that he
was the cousin Of Kalele. without giving the geneaIogy,
which would make this relationship apparent. But it
NAV often happen that n person may be aware that a GER
tain relationship exists and yet not be prepared with the
genealUgy to substantiate 1t.
As the defendant mas shown no title TO the land. and
believing that q HelD trial will further the interests of
Justice, we allow it in this case.
