A NEW DEPARTURE.

To-day new departure is made
in the steady upward progress Of
the DAILY BULLETIN. We issue n
summary of the local news and
editorials of the past fortnight, as
part of our daily edition, for trans
mission abroad by the regular mail
steamer. This summary will be
continued on the ewes of succeeding
mails to the Coast. No more COM
plete and concise record of life and
happenings on these islands than
the projected fortnightly summaries
can be devised, and they will be
made free gift to all our sub
scribers, besides furnishing all in
the habit of sending papers away to
their friends the neatest and cheap
est budget of Hawaiian news obtain
able. Future issues of the summary
will contain important features,
found impracticable for various
reasons in the initial one.

test, with the addition or deduction
of ! cent for each degree over OF
above 81 per cent. Mr.. Spreckels
declined to accept, giving as his
principal reason that the crop of the
islands was too large, and that he
had sugar enough without it. The
outcome of the difference in opinion
between Mr.. Spreckels and the
planters is of great Importance to
planters, and will be awaited with
much interest"
In the same article it is stated
that on most, if not all, of the plan
tations on Hawaii and Kauai the
rain has more than compensated for
the injury done by the recent great
storm, and crops are looking finely.

OPIUM ON MAUI.

News was received on Aug. 29th
by the steamer Lehua of two i'm
portant opium seizures on Maui.
Special Revenue Officer Mr.. w. j..
Sheldon, whom the Collector-General
appointed short time ago for Ka-
hului, succeeded in capturing at
Maalaea Bay, last Tuesday, one All
Ping, passenger by the steamer
w. G.. Hall, with ten tins of opium.
On Wednesday he discovered at
Kahului eighteen tins of opium in a
case marked All Sing, landed from
the steamer Lehua. The man bear
ing that name was arrested, and he
and All Ping were each fined $3.50
and sentenced to two months i'm
prisonment, before the Wailuku Dis
trict Court.

THE CIRCUS ON MAUI.

Fryer's Circus gave three per-
formanccs at Waikiki, Maui. On
the last day the train ran from
Spreckelsville. The weather was
fine, but times bad and money
scarce. Two fair houses were had,
and the total receipts amounted to
$500. The trip was not a very
great success. Mr.. Wiseman was
very seasick. He thought the de-
mons possessed his internal regions.
He was recompensed for his suffer-
ings, however, on his arrival at Wal
luku. There he met hosts of friends,
who decorated him with flowers and
made great of him. They asked
him all about Honolulu and the
welfare of many people here. Mr..
Wiseman found business very quiet
at Wailuku, but was pleased to find
the DAILY BULLETIN in every store.
Mr.. Shillito, the musical genius, was
lost. He did not know what to do
with himself. Mr.. Miseman reports
the plantations looking fine, par
ticularly Wailuku and Spreckelsville
plantations. The planters are re-
joicing over the prospects of this
crop being the largest ever taken
off the Island of Maui.

FROM LINGUISTIC To pUCILlSTIC.

In the good ancient days of
knight-errantry two old buffers en-
gagged in mortal combat over a dis
pute as to whether q certain shield
was silver or gold. They looked at
the object from different sides, and,
as it was got up on the principles of
bimetalism, both were right and
both were wrong. This incident
had its counterpart in an occurrence
that happened on Tuesday near the
stone bridge out on the Palama
road. A party of Cinnamon, five
or six in number, travelling from
town, engaged in dispute over the
proper Specification of Il certain
English phrase. The wrangle be-
came very warm, it seemingly not
occurring to the disputants that,
while a single word in their own
mother tongue is often capable of
thousand meanings, there was
possibility of strange tongue being
so ambiguous as to admit of two
different shades of meaning in
phrase. At all events, the discus
sion waxed hotter and hotter, until
the leader upon one side of the
question entirely lost his self-con-
troll. He suddenly drew off and hit
the leader of the opposite side a
singing blow in the face. Then
there was war in Palama for the
space of two minutes. Blows were
exchanged with great celebrity, and
Chinaman pulled Chinaman about
the kings highway by the queue.
1t was indeed QueueriOus battle
Mongolians fighting tiercely for the
integrity of the leading Caucasian
vernacular. Not only, too, was it a
war about words, but largely a war
of words. Each combatant wed
with the other in proving his superb
GRITTY in English eruditon by hurl-
ing curses and bad names at him in
the language of Shakespeare, At
length one of the belligerents,
weakening in the struggle, began to
shout "IIaul in," and then their
comrades, evidently considering
there was enough of Johnson, Web
ster, Worcester and Marquis of
Queensbury for one day, interfered
and separated the valiant linguists.
"Anglicizing the Chinese" is APP
parently keeping well up with the
process of "AsiaticiziDg the Ha-
waiian Kingdom" if the episode
above narrated is criterion.

POSITION AND PROSPECTS Of THE
KINGDOM.

In the present position OF affairs
and the prospects for the future,
there are, as in all countries, some
elements of Encouragement, and
persons looking only on that side,
are apt to take rather gloomy view
of the situation. 1t is, of course,
useless to take stock in the views of
people who are afflicted with chro-
mic dissatisfaction. in whatever Cir
cumstances they are placed. With
out paying any attention to the
views of croakers, nevertheless a
legitimate subject of discussion is
the disadvantages as well as the adj
vantages of our surroundings. No
one can be wrong in calmly con-
sidering the causes, if any, that
operate to the detriment of the
nations prosperity. The results of
such inquiries may not be very in
spiriting, but they may lead to the
prompt administration of the ounce
of prevention at the proper time.
Among the depressing influences of
the present are the departures of
white people from the Kingdom,
the increase of the Chinese popu-
lation, and the dull state of business,
owing chiefly to the low prices of the
sugar market. These ills are con-
siderably aggravated by a depleted
Treasury, and the unsettled state
of the currency. Dizziness in bust
ness has probably great deal to do
with the departures of many valu-
able and worthy residents. No
doubt, however, many of the de-
partures of the season are of per-
sons going off on temporary alb
sences. The process of Mongolian-
izing the nation has been referred to
at length on several occasions in this
paper. 1t still goes on, though to Il
less alarming extent than formerly.
In this connection, it is re-assuring
to notice that the Government is
vigorously enforcing the act limit
ing the ingress of Chinese to 20 by
any one ship, and taking active pre-
cautions against the traffic in return
passports at Hongkong. The cur
rency difficulties are creative of q
great deal of by no means ground
less discomfort. The law makes sill.
yer certificates redeemable in gold
but its provisions have not been en-
forced, Until this law is enforced
the currency muddle will continue
to clog the wheels of commerce,
and be fertile in dissatisfaction among
the people. A large section of the
business community asked the Gov
eminent to sacrifice part of the Ha.
waiian silver coinage for the pur.

{ Conclusion Of SummarY.(
INFORMATION NEEDED.

Is it dull sloth that sits upon this
city and impedes its industrial pro-
gress? So many of the most prac-
tised observers, acquainted with the
history Of the community, think.
We believe, however, that there is
another chief cause for lack of
popular interest in small industries.
Most of the wage-earners living
here, who are urged to engage in
gardening and fruit-growing on their
home plots, whether their own or
rented, probably do not know how
to begin the simplest operations of
horticulture. AS pointed out in
these columns few days ago, there
arc no standard works of instruction
in tropical agriculture to guide the
amateur in tillage of this soil agree
ably to the conditions of this climate.
Doubtless many young householders,
and old ones, too, would endeavor,
by their own labor, to add to their
means of living, and provide them
selves with n more wholesome and
toothsomc dietary than the local
market affords, if they only knew
how to go to work. Is there no
means by which the required know
ledge can be made available, and
thereby q degree of force now want
ing given to recommendation of
domestic industry to the population?
Undoubtedly, if the right way is
taken, a very great deal can be ac-
complished in that direction. There
is scattered over the town very eX-
tensive variety of experimental
knowledge of various kinds of soil
productions. Here there may be
found specialist approved by
success in raising one or more pro-
ducts, and another person elsewhere
is possessed of practical skill in
raising other species of food plant.
Why cannot all these various sources
of information be brought together
to fill a common reservoir of agri-
cultural knowledge for the benefit of
the whole community? This should
be the work of such an organization
as the Royal Hawaiian Agricultural
Society. If it will not take up the
duty, then the proposed society
mentioned in our local news the
other day will have to do it. 1t has
occurred to us that it is high time
there was an agricultural year book
got up for this country. All avail
able results of eXperimcntation and
records of practical successes col
lected in such work would con-
stitute Il good share of science of
tropical agriculture. The writer has
privately suggested to one Of those
moving in organized efforts to pro-
mote diversified industry here, that
such a work as that just suggested
might be combined with one of the
ANNALS established by different
publishers. We now publicly COM
mend this idea to the attention of all
who are taking live interest in the
main question as well as to that OF
publishers. In the meantime there
should be more advantage taken OF
the open columns of a more than will.
ing local press by all who can add tc
the required stock of popular in

to this country.
