EDITOR Pass love thy neighbour as
myself Love one another" Feed my
sheep" Follow me" These commands are
frequently read and the reader does not apply
them to the workings Of everyday life. To
love your neighbor, you must protect him. II
you stand by and allow clique Of men to get
away with the common or government funds,
are you doing right II YOU do not protest, which
is the least you could do1 II you allow a
clique TO mismanage the government and ruin
its credit abroad and at home, and say ii is
none Of your business, are you not culpablep
II you do not protcs, against leprosy being al
lowed to stalk abroad through the land, are
YOU doing your duty1 When the mothers and
sisters hear that their children and younger
brothers and sisters are being compelled to go
to school with lepers they will rise up and
1agcllate every father and elder brother who
does not protest in more ways than through the
public press. Some people have no feeling
unless through their pockets. Leprosy is likely

and every one connected with that industry.
There was in the timeof Kauikeaouli a commit
tee appointed to wait on the king, who were SC
powerful that the king was compelled to follow
their advice. There was no cause Of complaint
then, comparatively speaking, TO what there il
now. There never was greater need OF mas
meeting being called together than now. Why
not set the time and call the people together
LET us work while it is day, for the nigh
cometh when no man can work" MAUI.

W4nUsU CORRESPONDENCE.

EDITOR SATURDAY PRESS; | wish to say
a few words about the observance of New
Years Eve at Waikiki. I went to the native
church to watch the old year out and the new
year in. The meeting was conducted by Rev.
Mr. Lane, Father Alexander and Rev. Mr..
Keawaeamahi, and was, | think, the first
meeting of the kind held in the Islands, and
we of Waikiki can thank Mr.. Lane for pro.
posing it. We had glorious time. The
church was full of people until abou, &c
o'clock. Some of them then began to leave,
but there was still good number in and neal
the church shortly before IL o'clock, when we
all knelt in silent prayer. The people outside
came in and knelt with us; ii was very
solemn time and very quiet. When the bel
had finished ringing all arose and congratu
lated each other, wishing each a happy New
ginning TO end.
On New Years Day there was an cxamina
ton of the schools from Hama, Huelo. Haiku
Makawao, Paia, Waihee, Waikapu and Wal
luku. They all made a good showing, but
must give some little more praise than 9th
ers. Miss Simpson and Miss Mary Davis
both of Makawao, rendered two pieces in beau
ti(ul style; one was called "Our Father which
art in Heaven" 1t was something which wa
entirely new on these islands and the peop
cheered them very much. The Sunday schoo
which carried off the palm was the Wailuk,
school, conducted by Rev. Mr.. Keaweamahi
When they sat down they were loudly cheercd
1t was beautiful to sit and listen to their sing
ing, and the exercise that they went throug
while singing was splendid About the middl
of the programme Father Alexander was pre-
scented with a cut glass and silver cake dish
and Rev. Mr.. Kahale, the late native ministe
of Wailuku, received silver cake dish; bot
were presented TO them by the Sunday school
of Maui After thanking the people for the
New Years presents they sat down amid in
mcnse cheering. After the examination ther
was a big feast, in which about 500 people s.
down, and they all had good time. thin
the natives and whites are very fortunate in &c
ting two such ministers as Rev. Mr.. Lane an
Rev. Mr.. Keaweamahi, and | think that tn
people love them very much; but | think tn
natives seem to have more affection for the
, minister than the foreigners have for theirs

RESOLUTIONS

Adopted by the "Roard of the Hawaiian
Evangelical Association" on the death of
Rev. Titus Coan.
Since it has pleased the Lord of the vine
yard to call to his eternal reward our brother,
the Rev. Titus Coan, who has been the Presi-
dent of this Board since its organization in
1868, ii becomes us to record our sense OF
heavy bereavement in his departure.
We shall miss his venerable form and be-
nignant presence as well as his valued counscls
and ripe experience. His zeal and tenacity in
the Missionary work, his singleness OF heart,
his abundant labors, and his devoted Christian
this Hawaiian nation and on all who have
come in contact with him.
Blessed with unusual vigor of constitution,
he fulfilled more than the allotted span of life,
keeping his strength almost to the last, and
falling with the harness on. Few are permit
ted so completely to finish full rounded life
work and the memory of his life Of faithful
service will remain rich legacy to those he
has left behind
His was peculiarly gifted nature, not only
| in the power to command Christ and His Sal
walton to men sunk in heather degradation
but also in the ability to record and convey tC
others the impressions made upon his owl
mind by the scenes and events he witnessed
so strange and arousing to one Of his sympa
thetic nature and warm sensibilities.
His was an experience seldom vouchsafed t.
Christian workers, to have prominent part il
the conversion of a heather nation to the Cos
pei of Christ, and to witness the marvelou
changes wrought by that Gospel in their socia
and national life.
We gratefully bear testimony to the remark
able power often accompanying his fervid ut
terances in former years power whereof
the Spirit of God wrought great effects upo
of the Gospel. May his mantle fall on all tn
servants of Christ who speak His Word in thi
land and in the islands beyond.
We remember with special regard our dc
parted brothers joyful and courageous iaith
the confident and triumphant assurance whic
pcrvaded all histhoughts and counsels pertain
ing to Christ's kingdom and work. He wa
ever possessed of a calm and clear assurance
the onward progress of that kingdom, and {
the complete power of the Word and Spirit {
!, God in the mouths Of his servants to preva
over all obstacles. His seemed ever full an
glad confidence in the continual fulhllment
our Lords promise to be always with His me
sengers even to the end of the world.
Resoistd THAT do hereby express our hear
felt sympathy with his widowed companion, and wi
the children who mourn the loss of such father
we invoke for them the blessing and the consultations
, the God OF all Grace.
THAT these resolutions be incorporated in the mi
u,es Of this Board, and that copy OF them be sent
the widow and family Of the deceased.
!, 3-1nai these resolutions be published in both II
waan and English.

Mr.. NJ. LYMAN hands us the following
item, received by the w. H. Dimom via
Kahuui, and dated New York, Dec goth,
twodays latest than our latest eastern dispatches:
The H0,id'S Washington special reported las,
night that upon the return Of the House Fore
ign Affairs Committee next week, they will
find awaiting them an executive communication,
advising against the abrogation OF ihc Hawaii
an reciprocity treaty, on which subject the
Committee had solicited the views Of the State
and Treasury Departments. The ground on
which the abrogation was urged was that undef
the treaty a California importer and refnef'
by controlling the Hawaiian trade, had been
able 10 monopolze the sugar interests in the
West and that the treaty thus operated dis.
criminately. Agents OF this refner, commits
sioner of the Hawaiian Government and the
Hawaiian Ministry have been actively at work
in opposition to the movement. The rumor
waii, in the evenl of the abrogation, is credited
to one of these Sources and the Department
took fright thereat. This came also to the
ears of Eastern reiiners, who not only sent a
commissioner here representing the trade OF
New York, Philadelphia and Boston, but
subsequently, experimenting that the State
Department would advise against the abroga
ton, instructed their agent here to ask tn,
Department to withhold the reply TO the For
eign Affairs Committee until certain arguments
for the abrogation, in the form of facts ant
statistics, might be submitted. The Depart
ment agreed yesterday, but either the promised
data have not been forthcoming, or they hav,
not been strong enough to stem the diplomats
tide. AT any rate, it is now said tina, tn
House Committee will be advised that tn
public interests would suffer by the propose'
abrogation.
