AN esteemed friend in the northern part of
the State prints in his able newspaper a re-
mark to the effect that "a most beautiful fight
is going on in Indianapolis" between the
newspapers, the Journal being mentioned
among them. If this be true the fact has es-
capped our attention. We are engaged in no
eight with anybody that we know of. The
only fight we are in is daily struggle to
make the Journal newspaper of the people
and for the people In this fight we are en-
listed for the war. But as to those sort of
things which our esteemed friend calls
fights" we venture to remark that they are
the poorest possible investment for any paper.
The general public cares nothing for that sort
of petty newspaper conduct except to despise
it. We think the journal is old enough to
know that fact, and when anybody finds us
engaged in that kind of fight" they will
be kind enough to call our attention to it.

MONSIEUR ToNsoN come again. 1t is now
asserted from Buffalo that the recent confer
ence with Chairman Warren, of the State
central committee, was to arrange for the sud
den springing of the name of Eihu B. Wash
burne before the Chicago convention as sort
of deus ex machina. There would be no OBJ
lection to the deus, but the '"machina' part
of the arrangement will be apt to injure Mr.
Washburne's chances.

A PREACHER, while sermOnizing over the
Cincinnati, who were murdered that their
bodies might be sold for the price paid for
subjects for dissection, has seen fit to declare
fTheir's was a crime which deserved summary
punishment, without resort to courts, by the
citizens taking the law into their own hands"
The sentiment was greeted with shouts of ap-
proval. 1t is recognized fact that courts of
justice are very slow to move and very uncer-
tain in the measure of justice melted out. In
consequence, the opinion has obtained that
this laxity and uncertainty are the cause of
crime, or, rather, encourage desperate men
In the commission of crime. Instead
of remedying the evil as it exists in
inefficient law and slow processes of our
courts, society, OF portion of it, is moved to
take matters into its hands and administer
justice with that promptitude that is a terror
to evil-deers. Unfortunately for law and OF
der, lynching parties seldom make mistakes
in their conclusions and this is used as an az
gument in favor of summary proceedings. But
if regular irregularitajs are to obtain, some
plan of action must be adopted. 1t should be
decided what measure of provocation
may be given society, what degree of
harm before extrajudicial proceedings
shall be undertaken. This very
attempt at systemization would result in law,

LOTTERIES AND GAMBLING.

The following is an extract from a
sermon delivered at st. Andrews
Cathedral, Sunday morning, by The
Right Rev. the Bishop, from the text
"let your conversation be without
covetousness and be content with
such things as ye have.
There is Il special need at the present
time of our laying to heart the sin of
covetousness, which if it once be
rooted in the heart, will like canker
worm eat out all love of Christ and
holiness. The moral sense of this
community has recently been shocked
by the introduction of bill to raise
money by the lottery system. 1t is

THE STREET RAILWAYS.

There are now two bills before the
Legislature asking for Street Railway
Franchises. AS neither proposes
monopoly, and the railway would be
means of greatly developing the
outer districts, we think that the
bills should be favorably considered.
Provision is also made for extending
the Roads to the Park and to Eva.
The district of Eva Is now known
as the Banana District" and with
daily steam communication the cult.
vation both there and at intermediate
points would be greatly increased.
An objection to the bill in their
present shape, however, is that the
names of the projectors are not
given. Mr.. G.. b. Wilson is put up
as figure head for one bill and w.
r. Austin's name graces the title

tlemen are most estimable citizens,
and did they have the means for
carrying out the projects, there could
be no possible personal objection to
them; but it is nothing discreditable
to those gentlemen to say that they
in common with the majority of us,
are not capitalists, and are not able
to build the proposed roads. 1t is
an open secret that others are back
of them. The projects are legitimate
and honorable; why need their be
any concealment? Men are appar-
emily willing to lend the strenth of
their names to Lottery Swindle or
Bank Charter Fraud, why do they
not do the same to legitimate bust
ness enterprise?

Honolulu, 2S July, 1884.

In our review of the Report of
the Board of Genealogy, we stated
upon what we supposed was good
authority that Mr.. j. $. Webb was
the author of the Report. 1t seems
that we were misinformed and have
done Mr.. Webb an injustice. Hav-
ing but scanned the Report we did
not note the Inconsistencies between
it and Mr.. Webb's article in the
Hdooaiian Monthly. which closer
examination shows. In fact, had
we had time to read the Report
carefully, its text would itself have
been n refutation of the SANDER,
for, however, much we may have
differed politically from Mr.. Webb,
we know him to be man of intelli-
gence, and we do not believe him
capable of writing such produc-
tion as the Report of the Board of
Genealogy. We, therefore, cheer
fully take Mr.. Webb's word for it,
and inform our readers that the
man who talks about what he
knows about Darwinism from per-
sonal experience, and drags in deep
sea soundings, and "rat shooting,
and forty-eleven other things about
as essential to the genealogy of the
chiefs as pocket handkerchief is to
a COW, is myth. We congratulate
the author upon having successfully
concealed his identity but think it
rather ungallant in him to leave
poor Poomaikelani to face the music
alone.

right to put into their pockets the
amounts that others are foolish
enough to hazard on the same

answer shall you make if in after
years they put larger sums into

you that it was their success in
rafting that gave them their first
taste of the excitement to be found
in gambling. No doubt many have
put in to raAles with the best inten-
tion, and without the slightest
thought that they were trenching OH
forbidden ground. TO such it is
only necessary to point out that the
principle is indefensible to satisfy
them that such ways must certainly
have no place in works intended for
the glory of God.
