ISLAND NOTES
An Interesting Budget of News.

KAHULUI, Maui, April 10th.

J. E. Eschen. Master, cleared and sailed
for San Francisco with l ,473, $50 pounds
of sugar, valued at So, 848 81 E. n.
Chappell and H. Hunter, passengers.
This morning the barkentine Geo. G.
Perkins, H Alderman, Master, came to
the moorings, after a run of 81 days from
Port Townsend, W. T. She had cargo
of 341, 1913 feet rough and HIP feet
dressed northwestern lumber to S. 6.
Wilder & Co. She arrived OF Kahului on
the evening of the 9Th instant. The

passage to this port.
Mr.. John Wagner, one of the Custom
House guards here, found on board of the
William RentOn, in possession Of All Sam,
steward of the vessel, small quantity of
opium. His trial is set for tomorrow
morning. AS the article found was only
opium ashes, he will in all probability try
to make his Honor, Judge Aholo, believe
it to be coffee grounds or something
similar.
| Spreckelsville mill will be through
| grinding this month or at the beginning
! of next. l Lear that the crops will over
run the estimates made by Mr.. Williams
the Superintendent. This satisfactory
result is caused by the exceptionally heavy
yield of some of the fields.

This mare was sired by Governor Stanford,

credit upon Mr.. Cornwell's care in selecting
and training fine horses.
The same can be said of the fine animals
in the stables of Mr.. Sam Parker, Mr.. Geo,
Lucas and Mr.. C. B. Miles. With Mr.
Cornwell, these gentlemen have entered the
following fine horses for a three-quarter
mile dash to come off on the oath of May

race course, for purse of $500:
Messrs. Sam Parker and James Gay entel

CHINESE GAMBLING.

The Chinese, as race, are inveter- |
ate gemblers, and they carry their |
love of play with them wherever they |
go. Thus, one OF the most serious |
and demoralizing agencies the police |
have to contend against in this king |
dom, as well as in the United States
and British possessions where Chinese
colonies are established, are Chinese
lotteries and other gambling games.
The amount of money captured by
guilds of Chinese gamblers and with
drawn from circulation is enormous.
In San Francisco there is hardly a
mechanic, labOrer or retail store
keeper that does not patronize
Chinese lotteries. Many small traders
| have been ruined in this way.
Women are drawn into the vortex;
and even persons of education and
fair social standing are not exempt.
Police raids do not so much as check
the evil. The law seems powerless to
suppress it, the truth being, however,
that the Chinese pay liberal subsidy
for police immunity. When a raid is
| made in San Francisco, the 4" lottery"
is usually advised beforehand, and
the capture which follows, while it
serves to vindicate the police from
general charge of connivance, does
not cripple the Cinnamon. Indeed,
we recollect that the Evening Post
published long list of Chinese lot
teries, at time when the police de-
clared there were none in operation.
The officers verified this list, but of
course made no arrests. Subsequent
ly the reporters from the same news
paper furnished lists privately to the
police, who affected to know nothing
whatever of the existence of the
lotteries. OF course everybody in
San Francisco understands how the
thing is done, but that does not make
matters better. Private morals are
undermined spirit of gambling is
fostered; and vice, poverty and crime
naturally follow.
We make these remarks because
of the successful raid upon Chinese
lottery games by Marshal Soper in
Honolulu last week. It was well
done as a beginning, but it should
be kept up. We have no doubt the
Chinese in Honolulu are skilled in
methods of police manipulation so
successfully practiced by their coun-
trymen elsewhere; but this commu-
nifty is too small, and the police are
too strong numerically, to admit Of
their success if the Marshal follows
up his work of Friday last. There
must be no Flet up' on Chinese lot.
teries and other games of chance,
They are unlawful and should be sup
pressed. The taxpayers expect this
from the police. The very fact thai
twelve of the Cinnamon captured in
the late lottery raid deposited 5000
each in gold, although only $72 were
taken with them, shows how profit
= able the business is, and how vel
able they are to pay for police ex.
empfon.
The infrequency of captures of this
r kind, when the existence of these
| games has been SO notorious, natur-
r ally gives rise TO comment. The AID
: | vERTIsER does not propose to pre-
serve silence OH this subject It is
l | possible to enforce the law against
} gambling, even against the Chinese
] and it proposes to see that the law is
: enforced, at all hazards.
