+" CHEAP" BUILDING MATERIAL.

In no field of commerce is the rule
of =" cheap" prices, :" cheap goods"
so generally true as in the purchas.
ing of building material; and be-
cause of this, property that should
remain substantial and unimpaired
for many years rapidly depreciates
because the owner at the start sought
to cheaper his building by giving
low price and expecting to obtain
good work and good material. The
owner has probably been educated
to this by first buying his lot.
He finds that real estate in GER
tain neighborhood is of certain
supposed value, that value being the
price paid in the more recent pur-
chases, and if he succeeds in obtain
ing his ground for less figure he
has made good bargain, and his
ground is worth just as much as
though he had paid larger sum.
He goes to his architect and tries to
secure cheap" professional SER
vices. Such can be had, but he has
now entered field where values are
Interchangeable. 1t is impossible to
get good services cheap, but he does
not know it, OR wilfully closes his
eyes to the fact, and the result is
the business man who would not
dream of submitting an important
law case to =" cheap" lawyer, or
trusting himself in the hands of q
{" cheap" physician, will consider
the less he pays his architect the
better off he is. He insists upon
cheap" contracts, and perhaps
the contractors, after figuring upon
the lowest F" living" basis, are re-
quested to re-fgure, and the result
is lot of contracts let for less than
cost, and a building that is
skimped" in every place it is
possible, and in the end the owner
receives a building that in few
years will be practically worthless.
1t seems to us that architects can do
much to regulate all this by educat-
ing the building public. They should
deal with none but reliable contrac-
tors, and feel perfectly free to give
"a contract to the most capable
builder, instead of the lowest bidder,
where the circumstances warrant it.
This is professional question that
should receive the early attention Of
architects. finland Architect.

sink into lazy and makeshift ways Of
skimming through their lessons, and
in the end are dissatisfied with them
selves, when, as they have never ac-
quired tho habit of systematic prac-
tising, il is too late to remedy the
matter.
A new system Of church music
consisting of a simple air for the
congregation, and at the same time
elaborate harmonies for the choir,
intended to solve the difficulty Of
combining artistic and at the same
time congregational music, is to be
introduced in London, Eng.
Writers for some of the leading
English musical papers-notably the
Standard-are at present exercising
their gifts upon organ voluntaries in
general and postludes in particular.
Some condemn the whole in sweep
ing and often severe terms, while
Others champion the cause with equal
zeal.

{" CRASplNc THE SITUATION. I"

The action of Mr.. Spreckels, in
taking silver in payment for exchange
at about u percent less than gold.
is undoubtedly an act of relief in the
present unhappy condition Of the
currency; but we. are puzzled to
know how the H0acaiido can des-
cribe this as by any means ''grasping
the situation The situation was
grasped year ago, when the Cham
ber of Commerce stated to the Min
istry that the only safe course was
to limit the Importation of silver to
the local requirements of the King
dom. That statement was unfor-
tunately disregarded, and we have
now disarrangement of the cur
rency which nothing will cure ex-
cept withdrawal of the surplus silver
from circulation.
1t is relief that the Treasury will
accept the uncurrent coins at par,
and that Messrs. Irwin & Co. will
accept them at 9sa cents; but this
does not get rid of the danger that
has so long threatened US. 1t is
serious matter to declare the silver
deprecated, whether to 80 cents or
to 9SI cents, and the Chamber of
Commerce showed their appreciation
of this danger by using every means
in their power to avoid it. The step
has now been taken and silver is at
u percent discount. 1t cannot go
below 20 percent discount, but the
discount is no longer a question of
principle but of degree. This point
in the situation has evidently not
been grasped by the Daily Haaoaiian.

THE PEOPLES BANK" .

The project of popular bank in
Honolulu has revived after having
apparently slept for some time. Its
promoters intend calling meeting at
an early day, when the public will be
taken into their full confidence. Half
million dollars is mentioned as the
capital of the institution, which it is
hoped will all be subscribed here. If
not, there is little doubt felt that the
required amount will be readily OBJ
tainable in Great Britain, by men,
Der of large firm there who has
heavy business interests here. As the
trade of the Kingdom has about tre-
bied within the past three years, it is
considered there is room for another
banking house. 1t certainly does
not look as if financial dependency
had seized the community, when ma
ny OF It's leading capitalists are ready,
as is the case, to embark in an enter
prise of so great financial response
bility. Although under no outside
restraint, we prefer not to mention
names, but when revealed the pub
lie will find in the names of the pro-
moters of the bank the highest guar
antee of financial capacity and good
faith.

There is no lack of ANIMALS here,
any more than of more frequent
periodicals. The latest out is, "The
Honolulu Almanac and Directory,
1885, " issued from the Advertiser
office. 1t has no pages of reading
matter, besides many pages Of adver-
tisements. A very full court and
official directory is given, and trade
statistics are brought up to the close
of last year. A good thing in the
calendar pages is the substitution of
stale universal chronology, in large
part, with interesting Hawaiian
events. The literary department
comprises biographical sketch of
the King; retrospect of 1884; the
Volcanic Problem, by w. L. Green,
and description of the valleys of
Waipio and Waimanu. The work is
neatly gotten up and we'll printed,
although deficient proof reading
causes some blemishes.

To the Congress of the United States: Your

president OF the United States. HIS d;stin-
guished public services, his complete in
tegrity and devotion 70 every duty, and his
personal virtues viii find honorable record

he was held by his fellow couutrymen were
manifested by his election 70 offices OF the

dignity, and at length, full Of years
and honors, he has been laid at
rest amid universal sorrow aud yeneration.
The constitution which requires those chosen
TO legisiate for the people 10 annually meet
In the discharge o. their solemn trust, also
requires the president 20 give 20 congress
information OF the state OF the union, and
recommend TO their consideration such
measures as he shall deem necessary aud eK
pedient AZ the threshold of a compliance
with tho constitutional directions. IL Is well
for us to bear in mind that our usefulness 10
the peoples interest will be promoted by a
earnest appreciation OF the scope and the
character OF our respective duties as they
relate TO federal Legislation while the eS-
ecutiye may Ehch measures az be

Legislative actions must and shonld rest upon
those selected by the people to make them.
A contemplation OF the grave and responsi-
Bile functions assigned TO tue executive
branches Of the government under the con
stitution will disclose the partitions OF power
between our respective departments hnd
their necessary Independence, and also the
need for the exercise Of all the power en-
trusted 20 each in that spirit OF comfy and
cooperation which Il essential to the prnrer
fulhllment OF the patriotic obligations which
rest upon us as faithful servants OF the PEG
pie. The jealous watchfulness OF our con
stituencies, great aud snall. supplements
their s~uifrages, and before the tribunal they
