apart oslcnsibly 20 gather, revise,
correct and record the Gcnealoey
of Hawaiian Chcfs oil published
and unpublished Ancient Hawaiian
History, mcies and tabu customs.
The names Of l2S mclcs, stated to
contain from . to lG verses each, are
given rs the result of the labors Of
the Board, and "rhe discovery of
the remains of some of the ancient
chiefs has been one of the particular
features of Importance of the work
of the Board" Another "particular
feature Of Importance" which appears
but incidentally, IS the fact that
Poomaikalani drew salary of $3.50
month, us compensation for her
arduous labors. besides drawing 8
other items of from S24.G2 to 500
each.
What Joseph Sykes Webb received
for writing the report does not APP
pear in the list of expenses of the
Board, but it has probably been
charged to apprehension of Crimi-
nails or expenses of the Loan Act,
or some kindred appropriation.
The report consists of ? pages of
rules governing the Board, one Of
which is that the Board shall not
work more than six days in week
4 pages of names of meieS; page
of names of people who have gene
alogies and page Of names of those
who have none, but wish they had /;
. pages of names Of chiefs whose
bones either have or have not been
found and 20 pages of a rehash of
and additions to Mr.. Webb's recent
article in the Hdpdiidn Monthly,
concerning the probability, or i'm
probability of n Pacific Continent.
1t is matter of interest, but what
it has to do with the genealogy of
Hawaiian Chiefs is something that it
will take cabinet Resolution OF
an Act of the Legislature to find
out.
The statement is made that There
is certain mystery involved with
the conflicting stories connected with
the depository of the rerSins of
Kamehameha L, but tic Board is
nOw on a troil IN 'chich they hope
to be successful"
There are two hopes left to the
tax payer; one is that that trail will
give out before the Appropriation
Bill is passed; and the other, that il
will keep on for SO long that the
Board will follow it so far that they
will not get back in time to sign any
drafts.
The Board of Genealogy is un-
doubtedly one of the bulwarks Of
our liberties, and the Legislature
should deal literally with it. We
should not object if as much as SIZE
was appropriated. But the Legisla.
ture has a record for economy, and
we may have to take less.

alleged to have been made in last
year assessment.
MIR. Hitchcock objected to the
resolution because there was legal
recourse for such eases.
Mr. Rowel said the contention
that the firms property was worth
only SAL, 900. was proved absurd
by its own advertisement offering it
for sale.
On motion the resolution was in
definitely postponed.
Mcssrs. lsenberg and Dole each
read bills relating to the Auditor
General ; office. That of the form

the latter amends the present law in

Mr.. Dole moved the suspension of
the rules for the second reading of
his bill by its title, which carried,
and the bill was made the order of
the day in Committee of the Whole
on Tuesday next.
Mr.. Isenberg's bill went through
a similar process, and will be con-
sidered along with Mr.. Dole's bill.
BY leave Mr.. Dole presented
reports of the Judiciary Committee
upon sundry petitions.
In reference to one relating to
certain fishes, it was recommended
that it be considered in conjunction
with bills upon the subject. That
of residents of Waianae, asking to
be paid for road work, was recon-
mended to be referred to the Minister
of the Interior. A petition for the
removal of the Chinese Theatre was
deemed to refer to matter that
should be settled in the courts, and
it was recommended that it be laid
on the table. The various reports
were adopted.
Mr.. Kaulukou presented a peti-
ton, alleging that rumor had it that
there were many children living al
the Leper Settlement of Kalawao
who were free of the disease, and
; praying that steps should be taker
for their removal from the danger
of infection.
Mr.. Kaulukou moved that the
President of the Board of Health
J be instructed to investigate the
, statements made in the petition, anC
if he find them true to act in ac
: cordance with the prayer of tht
petition.
Mr.. Dole said the settlement il
question was conducted in manner
, disgraceful to the whole country
, The children in question deserved
J the strongest care and protection
from this Government. 1t was ba(
4 enough to allow grown people tt
associate with lepers, but to ALLOW
children was utterly inhuman. Th,
policy that causes that state O
things was one to encourage th,
manufacture of leprosy. The mo
ton passed.
A petition for the opening of ;
road closed by plantation at Lihu
was referred to the Minister of thu
Interior.
Mr.. Kaulukou wanted to know

OyE of the unrriendly criticisms Of
the Railroad Commission bill introduced
by Mr.. Williamson, and now before TIE
House Judiciary Committee, Is that
members of the Legislature are not de-
clarod ineligible as members of the Com
mission Under the Constitution in
force before the present one, members
of the Legislature could not be elected
to any office created by the body Of
which they were members Richard
Griggs, n member of the House, was
elected Commissioner Of Immigration,
and on his right to hold the Office being
contested, 1t was decided that the Con-
stitution created the Office, and the Leg
islature merely put it in operation.
Should Mr.. Williamson's bill, or any
similar one pass, we have no idea that
any member of the Legislature would
be candidate for place on the Com.
mission. 1t will not be difficult to find
capable gentlemen, representing all the
great interests concerned, who would
be willing to serve, and from whom the
Legislature, or the Governor, should the
be coniided to him, could
make safe selection.

tributod on the desks OF the members,

copies of TUE CLARION containing il

to distribute same until after the mes
sage was read. The reading of the mes
sage was being proceeded with, when
the dinner hour arrived, and on the sug.
gestion that copies were in readiness

France and China.

II is within the recollection Of men
now living that Chinese walls formed a
barrier 70 protect that country from in.
tercourse with the nations Of the earth.
They we're kept out fer thousands Of
years; their mode of manufacturing
their wares was kept secret from bar
barians as they termed the outside ma
tions-they calling themselves CELESTIAL.
The Christians Bible was excluded
from the Empire, unit! British guns
bombardcd their citadels, broke down
their walls and forced an entrance which
resulted in treaty Of commerce, and
since that time intercourse with the ma
tons has 10 some extent grown into a
system Of civilization and reciprocity.
The people Of our cotton growing
States were hopeful enough to believe
that when We got communication opened
with the Pacific via Of Panama Or re
huantepec, and our railway system wa'
completed and cars running from tn,
great Father Of Waters to San Francisco
and San Diego and Los Angeles, that oui
cotton could be sent 70 China at a cheal
rate, and If we could furnish just enougl
Of the staple 10 make one shirt for eaci
inbabtant Of that country, tha. New
York and Boston, Liverpool aud Bristo
would get our cotton by paying us 4
fair price for II. Ibis idea INDUCED in
by us so long has not been realized.
But these wars, among nations, car
we anticipate what results may Aow
from them?
France has commenced war on
China. England at one time was sup
posed to be ready TO arbilrate peace
between the two countries -then il was
said the United States was anxious that
negotiations for peace might be inaugu
rated by the Intervention Of friendly
power, and that it was willing to employ
efforts to bring about peace,
But the latest news seems TO disap
point all these expectations, and that
war will soon be formally declared by
France.
France can do an immense deal o
damage to China, but it has not beer
demonstrated yet what the Chinese cal
do in war waged on their soil, afte
they shall have carried more Of the ar
Of war and the spirit of their pcopl
aroused for the defense of their homes
Besides this they, are a stubborn, oh
stnate people, and when their vast re
sources are applied to the defense o
their empire, and their teeming million
come out to meet the French invaders
the may find moro to do than in thei
late attack in which they were success
full. The Chinese may become a war
like people yet.

The CLARION rule is to discontinue at
expiration of time paid for, and those
who receive the paper beyond that time
are under no legal obligation topay for 1t.
We had relaxed the rule, but End IL best
for publisher and subscriber to observe
it without exception, We had reluc-
family erased the name of our friend,
after the last issue, his subscription hay
ing expired January 3D. We think we
have seen a decision Of the Postotlicc
Department declaring that \ subscriber
is under no legal obligation to pay for a
newspaper beyond the time paid for. A
forced newspaper circulation is not only
unpleasant, but improbable.
