1T is PAR from being the wish OF this Jour-
nal to detract from the credit justly due to
honest and capable public officers. The
present administration, in view of the ma
terial it has to deal with, has done its work
with an efficiency which has and deserves the
thanks of the country.
The Finance Department is in excellent
order, largely due, it is true to its chief clerks
and the Collector General of Customs, but the
efforts of the best of officers, if not sustained
by their superior can be made frtitless. The
appointments for assessors, collectors and tax
appeal Boards made by the Finance Minister
might have been better, and his instructions
to assessors ought to be revised with care.
The Foreign Office as far as we know is
clear of foreign entanglements. May it long
maintain masterly inactivity, except in OBJ
serving the courtesies and ceremonies which
are its main function. AS the lamb never
Jared well in negotiating with the lion, so the
less we suggest treaties to the great powers,
the better for US. A powerful nation gives no
unreciprocated favors.
The Attorney General, although nominally
the head of the police department, has moth
ing TO do with its personnel, other than by his
right to disapproye appointments in the Office
of Sheriff. The segregation of lepers we think
is chiefly directed by the Board of Health
through the Marshal and Sheriffs. The Attor-
ney General might exact more thorough en-
forcement of liquor laws in the country dis
tricts, and of the gaming laws generally, but
he is entitled to credit for his rigid pTesecu-

PENNuEss ADvENTuRERs.-Wit the increasing
communication with the Pacific Coast and with
our agreeable visitors, we must expect accompany
ing drawbacks in connection with the great advan-
tages afforded by this fuller intercourse Last
winter we had some of the California riff-raff
landed here, attracted by the hope of easy living
and agreeable weather. This winter we have had
experience with people of respectable appear
ance yet of no assumed modesty. Under the garb
of religion and culture, they have been sponging
their living from some of our citizens who in their
hospitality TO strangers find that they have not
been entertaining angels unawares." Jeremy
Diddler" may provoke laugh, when presented
on the stage. But in real life, these people who
coolly avail themselves of your hosptalities, and
when forbearance with their impudence and dis
honesty has ceased to be a virtue, abuse you with
the meanest vituperation for exposing their trick
cry and effrontery are people who provoke only
ones righteous indignation. Even among this
easy-going Hawaiian people the most opprobrious
epithet one can apply to another is to call him
scamp of this kind "hoopiinieddir'

THE NATIONAL Observation-Disclosures theory or
sentiment may have to urge to the contrary the
English language as the language of business must
not only be the language of the courts and of gov
ernment, but of the schools. The drift of popular
DESIRE is shown in the fact that the schools taught
in the Hawaiian language are being almost aban-
dOned. The popular schools are those in which
English is the only language spoken, and text
books in the English language used for study.
There are over 800 pupils crowded into the Royal
School Another item in this connection is the
desire of leading merchants that licenses to trade
be given only to those who will keep accounts in
the English language. 1t is almost impossible to
understand the business of bankrupt Chinaman.

WE OBSERVE with pleasure the statements
made in last Saturdays AdceTtiser relative to
the immigrants now coming into the country
from the South Seas; and we hope that our
suggestion of last week, as to the quality and
stamina of these people may be unfounded.
But does the Adceyfiser produce all of the
facts? We say it does not; that there are
more facts which can be adduced and that
this matter is not thus summarily disposed of.
We have no doubt that these people get on
better with Hawaiians than Chinese or Portu-
guese do, for they are of cognate race. 1t is
an open question still as to their enduring
qualities. We believe that we are not mis-
taken in asserting as fact that the first arri-
vals-several months ago-were largely COM
posed of people from the high islands, whose
modes and habits of life are not unlike those
of the Hawaiians. 1t is from these that favor
able reports have come. AS to the last arri-
walls reports will be received that they are
willing and good natured, and we hope, for
the success of this immigration scheme, that
they will prove fully able to endure this cli-
mate. We do not believe that the Adre1tiSe1.,
tNCh WI duluOIllNs Will TAKE TIC pUSlllOu IlldI
a residence of one, two, or even of six menths
settles the question of their endurance, and
whether they can stand our climate and be-
come apart of our permanent population Our
article does not warrant the inferences drawn
We are not opposed to immigration from the
South Pacific Islands, on the contrary, favor
1t as the best available source of supply. We
did not assume that these people can not en-
dure our climate, but as it is not denied that
they are low islanders, we query whether
they are physically able to do so.
However, we are glad that our contempo-
rary enters into the Importance of the subject
But let us have further facts. Are, or are not
the last company of South Sea Islanders who
arrived, low islanders? If they are, were not
their former modes of life and surroundings
similar to those of the Manahikis ?" So
far as we have been informed, the answer to
both of these questions will be affirmative, and
If so, the inference is natural that they will be
affected by like circumstances and conditions.
We regret if the Board of Immigration
looked upon that note as fractions opposition
to their hard and thankless labors. We are
thoroughly in sympathy with the present line
of effort, but hold it to be the undoubted right
of every taxpayer to scrutinize all govern
ment measures, and to demand that, if there is
any light of experience it shall be used. We
hope that our new population will prove all
that is expected, and none will be more ready
than ourselves to make known such success,
or that the immigration problem has been
solved. But the obstinate question remains
unanswered. Are the people brought in by
the last two arrivals, those who will fill the
Tequisition? Experience only can answer this
question. Enough are now here for expert
;nent, and until it can be answered, is it not
wisdom to wait before expending large sums

The WAX In That Cocoa.Nut.

Mr.. EditOr.. The junior member of a GER
tain Brattleboro law firm was in this town a
few days ago and stated in substance. to a
certain person, that he thought the new rail
road would eventually be completed and run
but that it would be stopped for while,
though he did not wish to have it stop per
manently, and hoped it would go through in
the end, but wanted it stopped long enough,
to use his own language, $50 that IRE can
make some money out Of it - and said he ex.
pected to make 500 on account of the delay
before the cars could get to running. How is
that for the law firm who have appointed
themselves specially to look after the interests
Of poor deluded tax payers Have they been
hired merely to deldy an enterprise which
they virtually admit they have no legal
grounds for permanently stopping? Are the
above sentiments true echoes from the man
who boasts of his integrity and accuses every
body else Of bad faith 1t opened the eyes
of some of our people. We can now see why
the railroad is fought so persistently by GER
tain parties. We understand that so far. the
affairs of the company have been so conduct
ed that this law firm have been able to get
but very little litigation out of it-nothing
but few appeals on land damages. But now
there is possibility of blocking the wheels
until I'VE can get $500 apiece out of tho
matter at what loss to the taxpayers, stock
holders, and interests Of the people along the
line. We can see that 500 looks very large
to some people, larger than their anxiety for
the taxpayers, larger than a genuine self
respect, or true professional pride for when
lawyer is so elated over the prospect of a
fee in the future that he boastfully tells of it
as the only thing about the case that interests
him, it shakes the confidence of the common
people in the good faith of such lawyers. In
short, knowing, from its source, that it must
be a true reflection Of the opinions of the en-
mics of the road, we are doubly convinced of
the holowness of their pretensions, and that
the road is sure to be put in operation in spite
of all their efforts to the contrary. Z

Fast Day Proclamation

An all-wise Creator has commanded His
creatures everywhere and in all time not to
forget Him, the Author Of their being and
the Giver of every good and perfect gift
Then beware lest thou forget the Lord ="
This command comes no less to States and
Nations than it does to individuals, and their
obedience is sure to bring the same reward,
for righteousness eXalteth nation" and
Blessed is the nation whose God n the
Lord"
The people of old with one accord were
wont to observe their days of prayer and
fasting as well as times of praise and feast
ing, and the custom has lived through all the
generations since. II is surely as fitting now
as it was two thousand years ago to set apart
such days, for our relations to an overriding
Providence have not changed-"He is the
same yesterday, to-day and forever, and
we are just as dependent upon His bounty
and His blessing.
In accordance, therefore, with the spirit of
the Divine command, and the hallowed Gus
tom of our forefathers | hereby appoint Fri
day, the ninth day of April next to be kept
throughout this State as a day of fasting hu-
initiation and prayer.
Let us observe the day in the proper spirit
of true devotion let us rest from our ordin-
airy labors, and in our homes or at our places
of public worship humbly acknowledge our
dependence upon the God who rules over all.
Let us seek His blessing on our State and
Nation and pray that the bounteous harvests
of the past may be continued and the land
again blessed with plenty that our hearts
may be inclined to remember those who are
suffering from famine and pestilence, and to
contribute from our abundance for their re-
lief; that we may be saved from the sins of
ungodliness, of extravaganza and lawlessness
which too often result from returning pros
perity. Let us ask especially that the ma
ton may be safely guided aud kept unharm-
ed through the political contests of the year,
and that our actions may conform to the i'm
mutable principles of Divine law.
1t is fit time for every man to pause and
make careful examination of his political
course, and make sure that he is actuated by
love of country, and that his motives are
pure and high and his acts in intelligent ac-
cord Herewith. Then will the voice of the
people be indeed the voice of God.
Given under my hand in Executive Chamber,
at Sutherland Falls, this thirtieth day of
