"Mr. Kapena IS the only native in the Hawaiian
Cabinet Mr.. W. NJ. Gibson Of South Carolina.

Mr.. Chas i. Gulick, also an American, is Minis
Ter Of the Interior; and Mr.. Paul Neumann, Ger
man, is Attorney General. OF course these men
have for many years been residents of the sand
wich Islands, and are thoroughly identified with
the affairs Of that country. The King has an
annual income Of So, 900, and each member of the
Cabinet 5000"
And the Minister of Finance hastens to saw
But they do not have any outside pickings in
our country as they do here said Mr.. Kapena in

Cabinet in this country, which has many times

each IS compelled to make yearly report

EDITon GAzErTE I'm your issue of Oct 10th
noticed "a Report Of Committee on Machinery
anare6seu 10 the members of the Planters Labor
and supply Company.
his report is full of interest is practical and
instructive, It shows the great improvements made
IN sugar mill machinery, as well as the improved
methods of evaporation.
But with due respect TO this committee beg
leave to differ with them in regard TO the merits
Of the triple effect
according to tho report there seems to be some
dinerence OF opinion IN regard to the efficiency of
the two systems, the double, and triple effect or
rather the preference is given TO the double effect
TO use their own language" The double effect asan
cooperating agent this apparatus is becoming
very popular and seems to be preferred to the triple
effect. by most practical sugar boilers
Now this may be the opinion of the SUGAR boil.
ers,but scarcely think il is the opinion of the en-
Rlneers at least. am convinced by actual practice,
and experiment. that the double effect is no more to
be compared with the triple effect than that it is
to the open pan, or in other words believe the
triple effect is as far ahead of the double effect
as the double effect is ahead of the open pan. and
what IS more can prove this TO be the case, sim
ply by giving you the results of an experiment
with the triple effect.
This trial was made for the purpose of ascertain
ing what gain or advantage it had over the double
effect. The trial lasted six full weeks. three with
double effect and three with the triple effect The
test was made by weighing the trash used, and
comparing with the work done. in each case And
from the data thus obtained we found that the

over the best attainable practice of the double eff
feet.
This trial was made with cane, from the same
held under the same conditions, and was consid.
cred thorough and decisive. II clearly proved that
the triple effect is more efficient more economical
and takes less steam and will do more work than
the double effect, and is in every way n better
cooperating agent. In time this will be proved to
the satisfaction of every one and it is my opinion
that In less than five years it will be found in every
mill on the islands.
think it would be instructive and interesting if
those persons who prefer the double effect would
give their reason for it, say WY they prefer ii
aud If they can prove it more economical and Off
cent it is certainly their duty TO do so but doubt
their ability to do this fact it is impossible The
only thing to be said in favor of the double effect
is that it is little more easily managed.
The double effect admit is good but the triple
is very much better, indeed it is the best appar-
atus ever introduced into the sugar mill.

TIM outbreak at the leper settlement on
Molokai, has been very serious one by
all accounts. Two Of the men who were
stabbed are not expected TO live. while the
third is not so seriously injured 1t be
comes n nice question Of law, for we un-
derstaud that the lepers who committed
the crimes claim that being civilly dead
they cannot be punished That such a
plea will be set aside there can be little
doubt, but how to punish men in their
condition Will be a serious problem, which
viii exercise the ingenuity Of the Govern
ment officials.
The affair shows that the President of
the Board Of Health has not such perfect
control Of these unfortunate people as the
Government organ would like the public
10 believe Men who resist the orders Of
the Board Of Health, to the extent OF com
mitting homicide cannot be in a very con
tented condition. A full investigation of
this affair should be held. not in the hole
and corner style for which the present
Government is SO famous. but in the full
light of publicity There must have been
something peculiarly fragrant about the
matter, and ON whom the blame lies should
be thoroughly made clear Hawaiians are
a peculiarly quiet and gentle people. they
are amenable to reason and are willing 70
submit to lawful authority, even when it
separates them from those near and dear
TO them, even when IL consigns them TO
the living tomb of Molokai. What then
has led 10 this sudden outburst, ending in
so frightful a crime! The removal of two
girls for the purpose Of putting them in
the new Kapiolani Home in Honolulu does
not seem adequate cause

From every district of the islands comes
the intelligence that the political pot is
beginning to boil. and that the well known
promise bank is being drawn upon to
furnish arguments for bringing voters
round to vote the Government ticket. 1t
is a significant fact that every Government
candidate is an Office holder Of some kind.
ii is very evident then what kind of
Legislature we may expect If the Govern
ment ticket has il all its own way. 4 leg
islature packed with small Office holders,
who dare not call their souls their own,
will enable the present ring, which has
already accumulated a pretty neat slice
ont OF the Government funds, to make n
regular raid upon the pockets of the tax
payers. Men vino have squandered the
public funds in the manner that the pres
ent holders of Office have done. men who
have in four years increased the national
debt from S20G.O00 to over Sl.500,000 are
not going TO hold their hands if once they
can have carte HHele to raise the taxes and
make appropriations for every folly under
the sun.
The Office holders, whom the Govern
ment have put up for election. have re-
ceiyed some careful lessons, and the les
SONS have sunk deep into their hearts.
They know that there is only one standard
by which an official is judged, subserv-
iency. No amount of ability, no length of
service, no exemplary conduct, can keep
any official in office. He must not only
he subseryient III his method of conduct
ing the business of his office, he must be
subseryient in his very thoughts and con
yersation. The idea that he is not .sin ac-
cord" Will be sufficient 10 ooust him. Know
ing this thoroughly, the office holding leg
islators in the next Legislature will think
and vote as their masters tell them to.
The question now before our electors is
Will they allow this; they have a fair warn
ing The Government organ has an
nodnced as plainly as it has dared that
the taxes will have TO be raised. The in
telligence from the electoral districts.
shows that the Government candidates
are TO be subservient nonentities or men
actually forming part of the ring which
Is now growing sleek at tho expense of the
taxpayers. Independent men if they form
a majority Will break the ring, will see to
1t that no unnecessary appropriations are
made, that thorough system of reform
Is organized, that the tax payers pockets
are protected, that necessary public works
are initiated and that the public health is
looked after, not systematically, but care
fully. In fact that the true interests of
both native and foreigner are consulted.
and that the policy of selfshness is aban-
doned. Such results can only be obtained
at the polls, and we confidently look for
ward to this hope of reform being real
lied.
With men of the type of DR.. Wight, of
hohala, in the House, the tax payer need
have no fear; extravaganza and folly will
find no friend in him or in men like him.
Every voter in the country who has his
own and the country's interest at heart.
should exert himself to the utmost TO re
turn the independent members, and put a
stop to the present corruption.
