ground for the belief that many

ASIATlC CONQUEST.

A process is going on in these
Islands. which, il not checked and
reversed, must very soon culminate
in the Asiatic races gaining full sway
over the group. Whether the two
great English-speaking Powers would
allow the Orientals to hold rule for
any time, is question that has
really little concern for Anglo-SaX-
ons and Hawaiians now having their
homes here. SO far as they are con-
cerned, the mischief would be done
before their natural protectors had
taken warning of their danger. The
whites would be driven out, the
natives crushed, by the Mongolian
invasion peaceful as river but ire
sistible, when once let in, as the
, Pacific tide, unless self-protcctlve
measures had been taken by this
nation itself in season. Many peo-
pie will doubtless be astonishcd at
the rate of increase of Asiatics dur
inc the first four months Of this
year. The following tables of
arrivals and departures of people
from January 1st to May lst, of the
present year, have been published

A FREE PORT.

EDITOR BULLETIN Your morning
contemporary is doing wise thing
in advocating the making of Homo
lulu n free port. Your sympathy
with the project, expressed week
or two ago, encourages me to hope
that you will not decline to publish
the views of outsiders on the same
subject.
confess to a a'mcasurc of surprise
that there should have been any
misapprchension of the meaning of
the term, as there undoubtedly has
been among merchants and others.
There is wide distinction between
'free port" and "free trade"
Some gentlemen here have thought
tho two terms meant the same thing,
and were interchangeable. The i'd
vertiSer, however, has cleared up
this point, and has employed the
term in no other sense than the one
usually understood in other coun-
tries.
The petty objection to the meas
ure which / have heard talked on
the streets, that it is intended to
benefit the Oceanic Steamship Com
pany, is extremely puerilc. OF
course, free port would be a benefit
to that company's vessels but would
it not bc of equal benefit to other
companies, and to every shipowner
whose vessels enter our port !?
If not of equal benefit, certainly of
proportionate benefit 1t is not pro-
posed to make the port free to one
and not to another. All ships, re-
gardless of nationality and owner
ship, would have the same privileges.
Must common good be rejected
because some particular person
comes in for share? Shall re-
fuse valuable legacy because by
my accepting it another would be-
come entitled to similar good for
tune? / am not such a fool; try
me.
1t cannot be denied that certain
vessels would have put in here within
comparatively short time past, but
did not do so because of port
charges; and others have shortened
their stay, in the same period, and

No japanese have yet left.
There are also 3G stOwaways who do

An increased ratio of Asiatics to
whites, of over two thousand, in the
space of one-third of year, is q
formidable showing to the disadvan-
tage of the western civilization.
What is to be done about it? The
heroic remedy would be the exclu-
sion of the Orientals. That seems
entirely out of the question, how
ever. AS for the japanese, they
have come in response to our cordial
invitation, and more TO follow are
assured of warm welcome. In

more generous livers than the
Chinese will not give such exhaust
ing competition to white labor. Their
children are apt learners, and the
rising generation of japanese will be,
to large extent, users of the Eng
lsh language and desirable material
for citizenship. 1t is race that,
well-treated, is likely to remain in the
country and be subject to the order
of modern civilization. On the other
hand, the Chinese give little cause
to hope that they will be, of their
own accord, anything more than
they have been-rapacious, stolid,
heathenish, content with mere ami
nal existence, their very pastimes
being sordid; suckers upon a civili-
zation beyond their aspirations and
above their instincts. The eXcep-
tions they have furnished to Ha-
waiian society during all the years
since their advent only prove the

An RnternrisInr Lady.

During trip through portion OF Cali
fornia, last summer. we stopped at a neat
farmhouse, where there was every com
fort and luxury of a homo. Among the
members of the family was adaughter Is
or 10 years old. In the morning we were
invited TO see the work in which the
young lady was engaged. We found a
complete and successful fowl-raising es-
Establishment. A number of small inc!os-
ures, with a capacity of 40 fowls each, had
been made. There was a little house in
the center of each enclosure. The whole
cost of the Enclosures and houses could
not have been more than 500. With this
investment she was raising 1000 chickens,
and a perfect swarm of ducks and turkeys
all in perfect health.
A breeder of fancy fowls had sent ont
200 of his choice chicks to be reared, fol
which this young lady was TO receive sl.5
apiece, or $500. Without any unforeseen
accident this little establishment would net
| its brave owner from $3.50 to $1,000 last
season. This is better than competing
with aChnaman in q hot kitchen ovel
burning bacon and cabbage. 1t is better
than to struggle with the needle for 9
| fashionable living in field already over
full, and it is thousand times better thar
idleness in shabby gentility. What this
energetic young lady is doing, thousands
of others can do. A beginning can b'
made in n small way, and additions car
be made to the buildings and Enclosures a.
the profits will pay for them. Here is 1
pleasant and profitable business for hun
dreds of idle people who are wishing fol
something to do. A little energy, enter
prise, and courage is the principal capita
required for n start. With industry, sue

There Is scarcely a shrub or plant about
the yard, says n writer in the Journal of
Agriculture, SO little appreciated in pro
portion to its real beauty, at time when
beauty and fragrance are at premium,
as the lilac A few showers will bring
them out and cover the whole bush with
leaves and bloom making huge bouquet
in the corner of the yard or along the
walk, from which each gentle breeze will
watt sweet perfume all over the grounds.
Yet the bush requires but little attention
and gets still less. We are apt to value
things by what they cost us and this is
one reason why the lilac Is not more high
ly appreciated.
Another instance of neglected beauty
is the hollyhock growing up like corn
stalk and filed with large blooms all over
its spiral form, it can be seen from all
parts of the grounds; but because SO
easily obtained, and so easily observed,
scarcely any one gives it second glance.
With all the neglect, however, it has been
much improved since our first acquaint-
ance with it; very nicely doubled and a
| great variety of shades and cOlors. The

them be better remunerated If given tc

l,pOLYGANIY DOOMED.

The contest between Mormon
polvgamy and Christian civilization
is approaching crisis. The Fed
eral laws are being rigidly enforced
in Utah and the other Territories
where outlying Mormon settlements
have been made, and there can be
no doubt that energetic persever-
ance 10y the United States authon-
ties in the course now pursued Will
eventually break up the system OF
plural marriages on American soil.
With Characteristic shrewdness and
forethought the Mormon leaders
lately provided line of retreat, as
they supposed. The Mexican Con-
gress at it's last session granted John
Taylor, President of the Church of
Latter Day Saints, and his assocl-
ates large tracts of public lands in
Sonora, chihuahua and other North
ern border States for colony pur-
poses. There, beyond the jurisdic-
ton of the United States, it was
anticipated that polygamy could be
practised with IMMUNITY, after it
was no longer possible in this coun-
try. A popular agitation, however,
has been started against them. 1t
will probably result in expelling the
Mormons who have already settled
in Mexico, as we'll as excluding
those who may hereafter attempt to
secure homes anywhere in the re-
public.

that it elevates the work of woman on the

FOREIGN ndNlIGRATIoN.

The prospect is that Congress, at
its approaching session, will be
called upon to consider the subject
of foreign immigration in a much
broader sense than it has ever done
heretofore. 1t will not be a ques-
ton of paupcrs or Chinese, but of
admitting to citizenship classes of
foreigners which are now received
without restriction. The disturb
ances caused IN the labor market by
the importation of the scum of Eu-
ropean society, especially Italians
and. TIungarlans, who are denseIy
ignorant and defy both sanitary and
moral laws, and the reports OF land
officers that foreigners of a higher
grade are demonstrating and pre-
cmpting nearly all the public do
main, have attracted attention tc
the subject of immigration. The
question is a delicate one, and vii
be difficult to deal with, but sooner
or later it must be faced and fear
lessly handled. There are classes o.
immigrants Which the countr.
wants and will always welcome, bu
others are a source of trouble anC
