A PUBLIC MARKET FOR HONOLULU

In the event of a municipal gov
eminent being conferred on Honolulu,
one of the first things done should be
the establishment of a general mar
ket, in which fruit, vegetables, flow
ers, fish, meat, etc., might be sold.
It is true it has fish market, which
is one of the sights of the city, but it
might be easily made more attrac-
tive than it is. There is, however, an
absence of general market accomo-
dation, which is seriously felt, and is
remarked, among the first things,
by strangers who visit the place.
The producer cannot bring his goods
promiscuously into notice as he would
do were there public market where
he could rent a stall and consumers
hardly know where to go for many
commodities which they now either
do without or procure in limited
quantity and at odd times. a public
market would stimulate production
by creating a demand. 1t would
bring the producer and consumer to-
gether, with the result that the local
needs would be much better supplied
than ever they have been.
We throw this out as a suggestion
of what should be, and not with any
hope Of it's being Immediately acted
upon

OPPOSITION METHODS.

Our evening contemporary has
started out on a mission to make a
party and influence opinion in view
Of the approaching election. It's pur-
pose may be a good one, and if it
only keeps up it's monitorial tone it
may accomplish something that will
even surprise itself. However, it APP
pears that our contemporary is only
skirmishing on the outside. It has
not been taken within the circle
where the ''destinies of the King
dom" are shaped" If it had been
it would not have written the fol-
lowing confession of ignorance, which
appeared in it's Common Cause" edi-
torial on Wednesday:
With the aboriginal vote preponderating
in the various Constituencies it is useless to
think of a progressive national policy tri-
umphing, unless the Hawaiians are led to
an intelligent conception of all the issues.
With evidences Astounding of the teachable-
ness of that race, and in view of the patent
fact of its controlling voice in affairs. it is
marvellous that, on the Opposition side at
least there ia no systematic effort to cult
yate public opinion in the Hawaiian division
Of the body polite. Politicians may or
may not take this hint, but one day, it is
safe TO predict. etc.
We shall narrate an incident that
occurred a few days ago, which will
demonstrate to our evening contem-
porary that he is not familiar with
the "ways that are dark and tricks
that are vain" Of his Opposition
friends. A prominent member of the
Opposition rents a house in this city
to q Hawaiian native--One of the
"aborigInal voters" as it were-fOr
which he is paid SO a month. The
tenant rendered him $40 bill in
payment. This was refused, the
tenant being informed that the silver
certificates in circulation were of no
value while the present Government
was in Office, but that as matter of
favor he would take the SO
bill for SO so. AS it was not
an old conservative bank, the
debtor would not stand the half-dol-

light of reputation shed upon

tended. 1t was what the Bulletin
describes as " leading the Hawaiians
to an intelligent conception of all the
issues" If the " aboriginal voters
could be persuaded that they
would lose all their money unless

CALIFORNIA PRODUCTS AND TRADE

When one reflects that the popula-
ton of California is not over a mill
ion whites, it's trade and resources as
represented by its exports by sea, are
simply stupendous. The total mer-
chandise export from California in
the first quarter of 1sS5-nearly all
products of the farm-exceeded $15,-
900, OOO, being So, 725, 600 in exess of
the corresponding quarter of 1884
Considering that the price of wheat
was more than 20 per cent under the
rates of 1884, it follows that the
larger exports of the present season
represents a very much larger pro-
duction, with lower average Of
profit. Nevertheless the result is
simply astounding in itself, bearing
the small population employed in
agricultural pursuits in mind. Treas
ure exports by sea amounted, in the
quarter under view, to Sc, $50, $40, be-
ing nearly two-and-a-half millions in
excess of the exports for the CORE
spending period last year. If the ex
ports by railroad during the same
period were added to the total values
by sea, the amount would be largely
increased-probably by One-third.
