CURRENCY BILL,

The following is the bill which
passed the House yesterday, and
will come up for third reading on
Tuesday next:

1st day of December, 1884, the gold
coins of the United States of America
shall be the standard and legal tender

and the silver coins of the Hawaiian
Kingdom shall be, on or after the

PAPER MONEY.

A powder magazine for the regions
down below is longed for by the
residents there as much as a bank to
issue paper money is wanted by the
people of this country. We do not
mean that Subjects of Pluto could
not be found who would gladly strike
bonanza on powder magazines,
even if the general introduction of
that article were q trife risky for
for their fellow-shades. There are
undoubtedly those here who wish to
show this country how money can
he made by issuing bank-notes, but
this country does not wish to go to
school to them. The lesson of bank
failures, of the defalcations and
other frauds of bank presidents and
cashiers can be learned from the
United States as we'll by our own
experience.

Mr.. SPRECKLES AND the BANKING
LAW,

In pursuance of request from
Mr.. Spreckles the chamber of com
merce met last night to hear his
views upon the subject of banking.
Nothing however was said about
banking at the meeting, and the re-
suit was simply q discourse by Mr..
Spreckels upon the silver question.
All that the community knows about
Mr.. Spreckles' ideas on banking has
been learned through the Bank
charter.
Mr.. S. now says that he had no
idea the Benk Charter was so bad,
and that he had never read it over
but once.
We are glad to know that he
sinned through ignorance, but hay
ing discovered the error of his ways
he will no doubt discountenance any
attempt to pass a general law con-
tanning any of the Objectionable
features of the former bill.
So far so good. He never in
tended any harm by the first bill,
now let us see what he does mean.
Bring on your new Bank Bill.

THE MINISTRY BROUGHT TO SHAME.

The Kings speech contained the
statement thatthe estimated expen-
diturcs were less than the estimated
receipts for the coming period. The
Ministerial organ gloried over it,
and cited it as evidence of their
economy and patriotism. But now
the whole miserable deception has
been exposed. The cabinet reported
to the. house Mt the beginning of the
Legislature, that the estimated re-
ceipts we're $2,336, $40 and expen-
ditures S2,271, ,S43.
This fine appearing result was
obtained by simply leaving out large
and absolutely necessary items. The
House refused to go on with the
Appropriation Bill until these esti-
mates were laid before the house,
and yesterday they were presented.
And what a showing
They had left out of their pub
lished report of estimated expendi-
lures, items to the amount of
81, 800, 900. So that in fact the
Appropriation Bill which this cabinet
brings forward and theIamount which
they propose to spend is So, ,772, ,743,
or $1,435,S73 in excess of the
estimated receipts.
This in the face of the fact that
there will be decrease in the receipts,
and in face of the fact that out debt
increased $S00,00 last year.

MR.. spREcKLEs AND the CURRENCY.

Mr.. Spreckles does not believe
that silver has anything to do with
the price of exchange, and is afraid
that meddling with the currency will
cause panic. He says that he is
as true as steel, and does not want
to hurt any one.

tions may be good, but Factions
speak louder than words.

REPORT IL.

REPORT ii.
"The Select Committee to whom
was referred Bill to Promote Mail
Communication between the Ha-
waiian Islands and the United States
of America, beg to state that they
have given the matter their careful
consideration, and report as follows:
1.-The bill seeks to grant in perpe-
tuity to the Oceanic Steamship Co.
the sum of $48,000 per annum for
carrying the mails bi-monthly be-
tween the ports of Honolulu and San
Francisco, in steamers Of not less
than 1900 tons burthen, but there
are no stipulations for the protection
of the public against high rates of
fares and freights, and no penalties
for noncompliance with the require
ments of the Act with regard to the
transportation of the mails.
'sFrom statistics furnished by the
Minister of the Interior and Collec-
tor General, we find that the COM
pany is now enjoying privileges,
which amount at the rate prescribed
by the regulations of the Port, to
the large sum of $27 ,868.40 per an
mum; and that, in addition to this,
shed has been erected for their
accommodation at cost to the Gov
ernment Of 81, 1882.
''The loss sustained by the Port
from the diminution of the shipping
caused by the advantages acquired
by the Oceanic Steamship Co is
quite serious. During the first four
months of 1884 there was falling
off of 81 sailing vessels, as compared
with the number visiting the port for
the corresponding period of 1888, by
which the direct loss to the revenue
in the way of Lights, Buoys and
Wharfage, estimating the average
tonnage of vessel at 300 tons, is
S7,650 per annum, every sailing
vessel visiting the Port disbursed as
pay Of crew, ETC., the sum of $400
at least, and this money was all spent
amongst the retailers, cab drivers
and general dealers, and the sudden
stoppage of this source of revenue
has, of course, affected the trade of
the city unfavorably.
"These sailing vessels also spent
considerable money amongst the
longshore-men, market-men, black
smiths, carpenters, etc., who are all
sufferers by the present state of
affairs. Estimating the disburse-
ments of a vessel at $500, which in
our opinion is a low estimate, we
find that the sum of $4,000 per
annum has been lost to the commu-
nifty by the absorption of the carry
ing trade by the Oceanic Steamship
Co.
| considering the value of the privi-
leges granted to the Oceanic Steam
ship Co., the advantages which the
company has over other vessels, the
direct and indirect loss sustained as
above stated, and last but not least
the condition of the finances of the
country, it being evident that the
revenue of the Kingdom will hardly
be sufficient to meet the necessary
expenses of the Government for the
current biennial period, the Com
mittee cannot recommend the grant.
ing of any money subsidy.
''The Committee do not see any
advantage to the country, in passing
the Act referred to, and, therefore,
recommend the Assembly to lay il
on the table.
