expert gets stuck. A horse may look
ever 80 nice, and go q. mile minute,
and vet have fits, for instance. There
isn't live man could tell It till some
thing happens. Or he may have weak
back. Give him the whip, and Off he
goes for mile or two; then, all of
sudden, he sits right down In the road.
After a rest he gets up and starts again,
but he soon sits down for good, and
nothing but derrick could raise him.
There are sharpers in New York who
make business of selling such horses.
After the sale, they have their agents
slyly follow the buyer, and when the
final breakdown comes, they step up,
and after expressing their sympathy for
him, buy the horse back again for a
mere song, only to sell him again at a
fancy figure to the next greenhorn who
may come along. Even horse with
the heaves may he doctored up so you
can't tell him. They feed him on wet
grain for a while, and then when they
show him off, drive him SO smartly
that you can't see there's anything
wrong.
"Do you know what dummy is
You don'tY Well, I'll tell you. He's a
horse that don't know anything. His
brain is gone wrong. A dark stall and
overfeeding have ruined his digestion,
and that has affected his brain. Drive
him out ways and pretty soon he'll
jerk his head around and pull right
straight on one line. You can't hold
him it's of no use to try The first
thing you know he's dumped you in
ditch, or smashed you up against lamp
post. Tie him in the stable, and he'll
back up till he breaks every halter you
put on him. Stretch rope across the
end of the stall so he can't back out, and
he'll climb up the wall.
Maybe you don't believe it, but it's
so. L have seen one go clear up stairs,
and once / saw one go out of q second
story window, and another walked off
dock into the river. Watch him when
he's eating, and you'll often see him go
to sleep with the feed in his mouth. He
doesn't know any better; he's just
fool. 1 bought one of these idiots when
was beginner in the business. He
broke everything in the stable, and then
went up the wall like lunatic. After

for the man bought him of admitted

high. In most cases, when you see a
horse do that, be sure he's dummy.
"What do we do with horses we get
stuck onp Send them to the auction,
where buyers take all the risks. No
reputable dealer ever sells bad one any
other way. 1t doesn't pay to do it.
81 could talk all day about these
things, only your paper is full NOW, 1

know how to do it. t."-Hayper's Weekly.

ONE OF oUR contemporaries who was
twice a Minister of the King, says that His
Majesty had better not venture just yet on
a tour of travel inasmuch as a certain
guarantee to the effect that he would not
exercise any more his Sovereign preroga-
tive to approve or disapprove or even re-
quest the recall of a foreign representative
without leave, might be required of him.
And the reasonable presumption is that
were this gentleman a Minister now, he
would counsel the King, whose indepen-
dence as a Sovereign has been recognized
and declared by all the Great Powers of the
Earth to surrender this Sovereign right. -
How could he, with a knowledge of our
treaties with great and enlightened Powers
before him, think of such a surrender
Alas it may be in this case that " the
wish is father to the thought !"

THE Board of Health are looking around
for a site for a hospital, or house of deten-
ton for suspected lepers. They have exa-
mined into the availability of certain stu
atiOns at Iwilei, the Moehonua property,
and at Kawa,-lands lying makai of the
Prison, and towards EVA. OF course there
will be objections by some parties to any
point that may be selected, on the island of
Oahu but such house of detention even
if it were situated in the very heart of our
city, could not be any worse,-nay, would
be better, han to have the lepers scattered
throughout the community as at present.
There is a Ieper employed at the Prison.
We noticed recently an aggravated case Of
leprosy in the Insane ASYLUM, associating
with the unfortunates of that institution.
And there are notorious cases of leprosy at
various points i'll the city, and on the ISL
and. Then some will say, why not remove
them at once, to the final place of doom on
Molokai. This is easier said han lone as
has been proven to the sad satisfaction of
successive Ministers of the Interior, and
officers of our Health Board ever since the
energetic DIR. Hutchinson took the matter
in hand i'm 1872; and since then,-Ministers
Hall, Nahaolelua, Moehonua, Wilder and
Doctors McKibbin, Hutchinson, and others
AVE attempted to carry out the matter of
segregation.
1t is hard, in dealing with human beings,
to isolated, or imprison them, as it were,
for a misfortune, and not a crime. The
Government of Norway had greater con-
tention with the people in dealing with
this national calamity than we have had
yet. And our authorities, whilst having
ultimate segregation steadily, must proceed
prudently and humanely in order to accom-

The statement made and reiterated tina
the proprietor of this journal has been in
citing i'll will between native and foreign
er, and hasa purpose to antagonize races
will not be believed by this community, and
is not entertained sincerely by the partie:
who give utterance to the charge. The re-
cord Of the past utterly disproves such q
calumny. We will refer to an i" Address
to the Hawaiian People" by Mr.. Gibson,
published January 31st, 1876. At the time
there was an excited political discussion
| growing out Of the canvas Of this city by
candidates for seats in the ensuing Legis-
lative Assembly. The discussion had as
sumed a threatening character. There was
a loudly proclaimed Emma party" an
active denunciatiOn Of a treaty with the
United States which then awaited a final
act Of diplomatic consummation and there
was a widespread apprehension of some
rupture OF the peace etween natives and
foreigners in the community when the
address in both languages was largely cir
cuIated among the people. 1t appealed to
Hawaiians, saying When you respect
your own laws and your lawfully chosen
Sovereign, you win the respect of powerful
~ ADAC ~ 800 49, AAo NNO NOAN
dence of men of capital who will come here
to invest their fortune" And went on
furthermore to say : The usual talk Of
the demagogue is that the presence of the
white foreigner is connected with the decay
of the native. But this statement is not
true, and is disproven in many countries
where the red and the white live prosper
ously together. 1t is not true in Java and
the Moluccas, from whence your fore
fathers came. There the redskins Tor brown
peOple) have increased from one million to
many millions since the whites went to
live among them" And thus in q spirit
aiming only to produce harmony and good
will between different races, did a disinter-
ested party who was not a candidate on
the occasion, make a faithful AND patriotic
endeavor to dispel the idea of antagonism
of race, and to promote peace between his
brethren of both races. And his endeavor
was esteemed of such efficacy at the time,
as to call forth the thanks in person of a
then Minister of the King,-our present
Premier, His Excellency the Minister for
Foreign Affairs.
And the spirit which prompted that adj
dress animates us now. Do we seek to an
tagonize when we criticize those who dis
parage the native capacity ? They who in
suit are the a~ntagonizers (; and not we who
defend. Our purpose is peace. We would
always prefer to be peacemakers. But with
all our love of peace, we will not acquiesce
in al unjust disparagement Oft people,
who in their days of strength kindly fostered
the race that should now reciprocate with
especial courtesy and consideration.

The undertaking is q disastrous failure. The
public money has been squaudered rather in
making business for merchants, than in bringing
immigrants for planters. The wants of the country
as set forth in the suppressed petitions are mock
ed while the national life is being crushed out by
the hordes OF Chinese males preying upon the
vitals Of the country. Ala Ali
More than half of the large sum appropriated
for immigration was long since expended with the
result Of a hundred and eighty-fve men, women,

country three years it being quite uncertain

HAVE those who are crying out for labor
ever given a thought to the subject of or
ganiZation among themselves? The Gov
eminent has been wasting great sums of
money trying to help them, and has sue
ceeded very partially. Planters in other
parts of the world who have had to look out
for themselves have got on better than
those in Hawaii, whom a paternal Govern
ment has undertaken to provide for. There
can be very little doubt that if our planters
had, either as individuals or in companies,
taken in hand from the first to import their
own labor, they would have got it from
somewhere, and would have had it ready
at hand about as fast as required. They
might nave had to invoke the assistance Of
the Government in the event of their going
to India for coolies, but even that is doubt
full. The talk about difficulties in dealing
with the Indian Government and of the
lengthy and delicate diplomacy required,
has originated in what we believe to be an
entire misrepresentation of what is required.
If regulations are complied with, and
guarantees of substantial ability to fulfil
contracts are forthcoming, it will be found
easier for a private company to deal with
the engagement of Indian coolies than for
the Government to do so-and vastly less
expensive.
The suggestion that a Planters Associa-
ton should be founded is the right one.
This was strongly urged in 1872. There is
always strength in union; and this is a case
on which individual cutlery and individual
effort must be of little avail. If even one
half the men who are now anxious for
supplies of Iaborers were to meet together,
make up their minds what they want,
and what they can afford to give an order
to secure it, they are likely to do more
