the crater. Visitors who go now can hardly fail
to see the old crater in full action.
Schooner Lih0lihO was at Honoapo when the
steamer left Kau, discharging machinery !; and the
new schooner KdHikedOuli was at Punaluu, unload
ing her original cargo of lumber, which she brought
from Puget Sound.
A half breed Hawaiian and Portuguese, named
Hulihale. employed on the plantation of the
Messrs. Burkhart back of Naalehu and near Wal
ohinu, was murdered on Sunday evening the 22d
of February, by seven Cinnamon, who had lost all
their money in gambling with him. They have
been arrested and await trial before Judge Lyman
at the March term of the Court at Waiohinu
This murder is another fruit of the recent wide
spread use of liquor. The result of relaxing vigil
ance of the authorities. Terrible responsibilities
are accommodating upon the shoulders OF the pow
ers that be.
Under date of Feb. %, we hear from Hilo, that
for six days it has been raining for most of the
time. Small channels of eight feet wide, which
dry most of the time, are now raging streams
fifty feet wide. and impossible except where there
are bridges. 1t is doubtful whether we have seen
so much water in Hilo for ten years. kilauea is
in full blast rolling and surging within her mural
walls sending out her fiery streams and throwing
a sheen of rudy brightness upon the oyerhanging
clouds, as if the heavens were on fire. This light
is seen all over Hilo, whenever the lower stratum
Of clouds lifts so that view is not obstructed
From Hanakua, we have the following: " Much
has been said regarding the wire-rope landing at
Honokaa. Some people at first gave out that II was
a sure failure, but they have at last become con-
WINGED that to-day, it is the best landing this
coast. Capt. Briggs, of the schooner Eugenia A.
Briggs as well several Others testify to the
truth of this statement. short time ago, there
was landed from that vessel-the weather being
boisterous at the time-in the short space of ten
hours, 1900 bricks, a large number of barrels of
lime and cement, three large of iron, besides
several other packages, without any difficulty.
On loading, the said schooner was supplied with
as much sugar as she could take at the time in a
great deal shorter space than used to in former
times. A ton and half of freight be sent up
or down on the wire-rope with safety, and freight
can be landed easily, whilst at all the other ports
on this coast they do nothing whatever in bad
weather times. The Paauhau new landing, when
finished will be l, and ii has got to be very rough
when they can't work there. The schooner above
named laid at the old Paauhau landing IA days, a
while ago, and in only four days could they work,
but when the new landing is finished discharging
loading of vessels could then be done at any
time. This wire-rope landing is a big thing, and
ought TO be had at other landings in order to have
the same facilities the Honokaa landing now has.
Much credit is due TO those who have had the put
ting up Of and to those who advanced the capital
on, this great success"

REPUBLICAN MEETING.

The meeting in the Court House on
Monday evening last, to hear Mr.. Ma
son, of Mercer, and General Beaver, OF
Bellefonte, Centre county, Pa, was
quite a success. Hon. A. l.. Camp
bell, Of Petrolia, presided and intro
duced the speakers with some very ap-
propriate remarks. Mr.. Mason made
an able speech on the currency ques-
tions and gave his reasons for giving
up the Greenback party and joining
the Republican party General Beaver
made an eloquent and powerful speech
on the question of "solid South y
warning his hearers Of what might be
expected from Democratic success ut

given the speakers and the meeting ad.
journed with three cheers for Garfield
and Arthur. The Citizens Cornet

Recollections of An Old Voter.

Mr.. George Rosebaugh, of Adams
township this county, says that he at
tended the Clay convention that was
held in Butler during the campaign of
1874 The Democrats had held con-
vention in Butler on the preceding day
and they had on their banners, some
of which were still to be seen, "Polk,
Dallas and the Tariff Of 1912" They
thus succeeded in dcceiyipg many, qnd
in making many believe that the Dem=
ocratic party was the friend of the la
boring man. They got the majority in
Congress and Immediately they repeal
ed the protective tariff. In the Senate
the vote was q tie, and Dallas, the
Democratic Vice President gave tho
casting vote, and away went the pro.
tectiye tariff
The consequence was that English
railroad iron was run into the Iron
City of Pittsburgh while the lahoring
men there were eating soup at the
soup-houses. To indicate the prices of
products &c. ut that time the following
will serve as an example:
Mr.. Rosebaugh sold a good three
year-old steer for 80. Wheat was
worth 56cts. per bushel butter sold as

THE REBEL CLAIMS.

Had General Hancock's letter in re-
gard to "rebel claims" come earlier in
the canvass it would have had more
weight than will now be accorded to
it. The place for declaration on that
subject was in the platform of the Dem
ocratic party adopted at Cincinnati or
in the letter of acceptance of the Dem
ocratic candidate for the Presidency.
The obvious criticism upon General
Hancock's letter to bis Cincinnati cor
respondent is that it is not spontane-
Gus, but has been forced out Of him by
the exigencics of the canvass, as a
famous letter Of similar import was
dragged out Of Mr.. Tilden four years
ago. Besides, it may be pointed out
that General Hancock's letter does not
quite cover the case, when he says ::
1.-The Government can never pay a
debt or grant pension or reward Of
any sort for waging war upon its own
existence; nor could be induced to
