TINE CIVIL SERVICE,
FAIR PLAY.

EDITOR BULLETIN II do not pro-
fess to say whether your ideas of
breeding" statesmen are "wise or
otherwise" but it seems to me that
more should be done than hitherto
TO train young Hawaiians for official
positions under the Government.
don't see why all such positions
should not be ultimately filed by
Hawaiians, instead of outsiders.
My plan would be to have a Board
of Examiners to examine boys who
had completed their schooling and
were candidates for government
positions, placing all successful COM
petitors on the list of eligible appli-
cants, in the order of their merit as
decided by their examination. When
admitted to the public service they
should be entered at the bottom,
and have the opportunity of work
ing their way to the top. This would
both give to young Iawaiians the
chance to which they have natural
right, and result in an efficient pub
lie service. Having once entered
the service their tenure of Office
should be "during life or good
behavior" ain of opinion that no
civil service can reach a high grade
of purity and efficiency where this
condition is lacking. Moreover,
where promotion to higher duties
and increased emolument depends
upon merit, and is sure to come
sooner or later if deserved, an
honorable ambition, producing dill
gence and' faithfulness, inspires the
breast. YoUNG HAWAII.

THE DEMOCRATIC SUCCESS.

After nearly quarter of n cen
tury the Democratic party of the
United States has its innings in the
government of the nation. Let us
hope it will be truer to its trust than
the last time it held sway. The
success of the Democrats does not
take us by surprise. Neither would
that of the Republicans have done
so. Several new and unfathOmable
elements appeared in the contest
just closed which, to foreign opinion
especially, made the issue exceed
ingly problematical. 1t is needless
to recapitulate these, which now
belong only TO n stale story. In
view of the President elects social
record, as laid bare upon apparently
unimpeachable evidence, a measure
of disgrace must attach to the
choice of such man TO the highest
social pinnacle in the nation. Prob
ably, however. thousands who be-
leved the worst scandals raised
against him yet believed he was a
safer man for the nation than Mr..
Blaine, against whom Il rather formi-
dable indictment was made for his
combination of private interests
with public duties in his dealings
with railway brokers and lobbyists.
We apprehend no very radical
change for the present in the COM
mcrcial policy of the Union, on
account Of the triumph of the Demo
cratic party 1t gave q rather I'M
certain sound upon the question Of
free trade and protection in the con-
test, and is not such n unit upon the
question that its leaders, even if
united themselves, can afford 10 go
far in the reversal of the policy to
which the country has been so long
committed. 1t is possible that with
all its free trade proclivities the
Democratic Government, supported
so strongly rs it is in the sugar
region, may be less willing to MAIN
tain present relations with these
Islands than the Republican one.
Upon this and other relations the
result may bear to this Kingdom it
is only idle to speculate. Suffice it
now to say that we rejoice to-day
with our American friends who feel
joyous and condole with those who
feel otherwise.

over and above the expenses col
lected for this years races is to be
awarded to the five contesting clubs

grateful public with details of his
inimitable prowess, free of charge
evidence such delight in misrepre-
sentation and such repugnance to
fact, that as one of the five referred
to, feel called upon to put in a
word. Instead of a days sport as
Mr.. Spalding imaginatively has it,
We bagged all our birds in little
over half day, and that with the
assistance of one dog only, all we
had. While thoroughly appreciating
Mr.. Spalding's keen sarcasms on
the difference between Californian
and Hawaiian game, | regret to note
his contemptuous attitude towards
that unfortunate bird, the spoonbill,
which has hitherto furnished such q
large proportion of the sport avail
able here, and which it is to be
feared will in future direct its annual
flight to other shores, beyond the
reach of darts more terrible than
sportsman's lead.

A correspondent suggests that a
scheme of civil service cXamina-
tions-primarily for the benefit OF
young IIawaiians-should be insti-
tuted. 1t is a suggestion we can
heartily support We should like to
see 4 missionary spirit in its broadcast
sense pervadc the white people who
make their home here. There would
be infinitely more glory in raising
the native race--a more noble one
than most barbarian races found in
modern times; in saving at least
remnant of it to civilization. than
to ruthlessly bear it down beneath
the hoofs of that pagan worldlness
which has rushed through the door
opened by Christianity. The nomi-
nal policy of this country has been
in this respect in the right direction,
but there is evident 4 growing dis
position to be impatient of the
aboriginal backwardness and mega
tive qualities, and to leave the
native to the sure and fatal issue of
unassisted competition with expert
Christian and heathen rivalry. 1t
is to be hoped this disposition may
be checked, and the scheme sug-
gested by our correspondent is one
item in the bill of our duty in that
regard. Canada is succeeding well
in her efforts TO civiliHe the remain
lug depleted tribes of her Indians,
who were not half so promising sub
jects for the process rs the Hawai-
ians. and the conditions of civiliza-
ton are much more severe there
than here.
