quately shaded avenue Emma Street.
when the beauty, variety and profusion
of its tropic vegetation, should make its
avenues second in magniioenoe to
none. We have every natural advan-
tage a situation which in point of beau
ty few cities can hope to rival All
that is necessary is a little energy and
common sense, to work wonders. This
matter is only fresh illustration of the
inconvenience Of being without a muni-
cipal government, which would cherish
the interests Of the city in particulars
for which the general government man
ifests little concern.

her a pair of silk stockings as a birth.

buy the material The queen forgot
the circumstance until her birthday
came, when she was reminded oft blythe
arrival of pair of well-knit silk stock

to be outdone, Queen Marguerite sent
a. pair to her young friend as re-

were accompanied by little note :

There will be quite as much need Of
vigorous opposition at the next ses-
sion of the legislature. But to be ef
ieetive, the opposition must be not only
vigorous" but united. 1t is none too
easy for the property owners, planters,
merchants, and citizens generally, both
foreign and native born, to organize
for an aggressive reformation Of presen
abuses, and for determined resistance Of
whatever perils TO good government
may appear on the political horizon
To this end, it is time that the people
should know what constitutes "loyalty"
in the Hawaiian Kingdom, and who
are its loyal subjects The party in
power has had much to say of its loyalty
to the king, and the opposition has
been decried as though its efforts were
for the overthrow of the Hawaiian kings,
and the removal of all visible and tang
ible things which are the emblems OF
the monarchy charge that is al
together unjust Now what are we to
understand by the term icyalr; certainly
fidelity to the powers that be, dutiful
regard to THEN authority and a strict and
steadfast obedience to their DEGREES
1t has been said "man was made to be
governed proposition that is not
musical to democratic ears, and very
susceptible OF being misunderstood. 1t is
not surprising that it should be deemed
melodious as ii appears to many minds.
Yet before 1t is condemned II may prop
erly plead for an Interpretation. II it
means that the many are born to serve
the pleasure OF the few, to swell the
pomp OF personal grandeur, to make
food fol one mans pride, or power, oil
lust, then the proposition is base and
execrable But We hold that it admits
OF another Interpretation 1t mean,
that men by virtue OF their position a:
living creatures are subordinate to :
power higher than themselves, that they
are placed under system OF law; thai
as the most minute phenomena anc
forms OF life are the subjects OF som,
kind of rule, so man is not exempt
from the pervading oonditionof the uni
verse; but that he too, by obedience tC
his reason, must fulfil the purposes oI
his creation by iilial obedience to IN,
earthly rule as delegated rule from .
higher power, In this sense, then, ",

ruih-"man ioaS made to be governed

Not that we wish to be understood
as believing the existing constitution of
this kingdom to be perfect one, or
even a reasonably good one, in its let
ter. But that constitution was ao-
cepted by the deliberate judgment of
the best intelligence Of the nation, and
has been so accepted since as safe
fundamental law, whose spirit guaran-
teed reasonably good government
We hold that this nation has no right
to seek to subvert the constitution or to
change its provisions except by strictly
constitutional methods SO long as the
existing government is bearable.
While, on the other hand, it owes to
its own integrity such active exercise
Of the law of self protection as shall
make it impossible for bad government
to continue, ereebf on Sn6e,anee. And
such "selfprotection' may be exercised
only by organization.

II is, we think, mistake to suppose
that thickly shaded streets are likely to
be muddier than Others On the con
trary the trees operate as protection
to the roads, and it is no uncommon
thing after a brisk shower to find the
ground under a thick leaved monkey
pod tree, almost perfectly dry Our
trees, the symary especially, grow Sc
rapidly under these iavoring skies, that
few years might make our streets

loyalty IS the constitution as giving ut
tersnce TO the voice Of the nation. It is
the nations voice that the people are
to hear it is the nations voice that
the party who will do good to the coun-
try wust make audible in its utterance
Of the dictates Of truth and reason. We
are ready for the retort, that if this be
true the mere will ofthe people is the su-
preme not by any means. The
deliberaiion, reason and collective wis
dom of the people formed what we call
the Hawaiian government The mere
will Of the people is not the rightful
authority The expression OF the
strongest will, or Of the largest number
does not constitute the government.
The government is in the power behind
the constitutional, fundamental and
guiding law, securing equal rights

tecting the lesser party against the
mad majority We are to listen to it.,
reverence it and obey it. Let the ma

Seriously however, the unshaded
condition OF Honolulu streets is an i'm
portant drawback from the beauty as
well as the comfort of the city. 1t may
be urged that we have too much shade
here already, Perhaps SO, but not in
the streets. BY perersity which de-
ies all explanation, and obeys no law,
we cut down our trees near the street,
where they are favorable to health, and
leave them to grow unimpeded around
our houses, where they are detrimental
to it. It is conceded that the trees sha-
ding the public highways should be
properly trimmed,as matter OF course

We earnestly hope that the matter
suggested in last weeks Press with re-
gard to the lighting and ventilation OF
cells in the new city hall will not be
passed. The matter is one which GER
tainly demands urgent attention, and
should receive it before it is too late.
We believe that the subject should be
investigated at once by committee OF
humane and competent men, who
understand at once the sanitary needs
of public buildings and appreciate the
duty which the state owes to persons
in confinement, and which humanity
demands should be discharged. To an
outside observer not specially acquain.
ted with the ordinary sanitary agencies
made use Of in buildings like this, the
present arrangements, in regard to
light, temperature and ventilation, seem
most wretchedly inadequate, not to
say barbarous. 1t looks very much as
though another Howard were needed tc
prevent Hawaii from taking large
step backward in the matter OF prison
reform.

The gentlemen who put aside their
private business and gave their time and
ability in the effort to correct grave
public disorders, to MAINTAIN the intcg
rlty OF the government, to secure econ
omy OF administration and create such
a heathful public sentiment as might
reasonably be expected to influence the
unworthy and incompetent officials,
failed to accomplish their object Their
efforts doubtless had a moral result,
but not the result the country required

votes were counted, the Independents
were beaten when the parliamentry

results OF their onslaught on the forts

to Baal but they did no; appear in the
presence Of the persuasive and allurlng
grandeur abont the throne of royalty,
while the prophets and servants OF the
prevailing powers were disciplined and
instructed men and fed at sagacity's
table The Independents failed because
they were not organized. Their general
policy was to fight the measures and
schemes Of the existing government,
but no clearly-dehned plans were
made and no specific objects agreed
upon as forming basis for united ac-
ton. There were on their side legal
and business talent and intelligent com
prehension of the country's resources
and needs, the best methods OF finance,
public improvements, immigration, the
protection Of public health, the treat
ment Of leprosy and other topics which
demand for their consideration the best

tinue for any length of time without
some wouldbe sharp fling at the for
eign residents of this kingdom. In a
recent editorial it says go = it is a
duty, and at the same time privilege
to the alien resident to acknowledge
by accustomed ceremonies the majesty
of the people among whom he is per
mitted to reside, as represented by
their acknowledged head" "Alien,'
permitted to reside" Those are the
words Of two men who ought to be among
the last on these islands to use them in
any such connection. The renegade who
has become citizen, the fugitive who
has been made denizen are glib enough
in their denunciation of the "aliens'
their neighbors. Bnt let us examine
the justice Of the sweeping term---in
the slurring sense employed by the
writer quoted. This kingdom, by
treaties, has guaranteed to American
and English citizens many rights and
privileges. We mention these two
classes because they form ma
jority Of the commercial, the planting
and the educating classes Now

from the journal of Doctor Judd. We be-
