with those Of the Immediately pre-.
ceding one. Ii satisfactory ratio
Of progress has been maintained,
the people have reason TO be thank
ful. But the fact that, when the
treasury became low, the roads were
made one of the first subjects of
economy, indicates that the Govern
ment does not duly appreciate their
Importance. The unexpected road
balances" that had to be revoted at
the last Legislature bears unfavor-
able witness against the administra-
tion of affairs.
There can be scarcely anything
more important to this Kingdom than
its roads. Nothing can be more
polite on the part of the Govern
ment, viewed from the standpoint of
self-interest alone, than to make the
public highways among its first OBJ
jects of concern. A system Of good
roads, ramifying into every cultiva-
BILE part of the country, would,
more than anything else within the
scope Of Government, add value to
both public and private lands. The
placing of roads, already laid out
and in use, in permanently good
condition would add immeasurably
to the comfort and greatly to the
wealth Of the inhabitants. What an
amount of suffering and loss is an
nually caused by bad roads! There
is the physical shock of the jolting
OF vehicles and the stumbling of
saddle horses; the wearing tedium
of n necessarily crawling pace; the
constant care to avoid accident; the
wear and tear of animals and vehi-
cles; the loss of time and the waste
of force-all these make up stu
pendous account against bad roads.
Then there is nothing in which a
liberal public expenditure will more
assuredly commend itself to the
people of such country as this, or
command warmer approval of an
administration, than well-made and
well-kept roads. Everybody has to
use the roads, and their condition
will appeal in some degree to the in
telligence of the stupidest elector.

PUBLIC HIGHWAY.

One of the very first objects of
Government in this country should
be good roads and enough of them.
Even countries that have railways,
and are suited to them, make q
great mistake when they neglect
their ordinary roads. Much more
culpable would such q neglect be in
country, like these Islands, un-
suited to railway systems. Until
this group is hundreds of times
more densely populated than at pre-
sent, any project of general railway
building would be great folly. OF
course street railways in the city
are desirable and almost necessity,
but they are not in the same cate
CORY as railways for traffic between
different points throughout the
country.
Our roads are gradually improv-
ing, there having been great changes
for the better right at Hon nolulu
within the past few months. Some
Of the main roads leading into the
city have been transformed from al
most impossible ruggedness to very
agreeable smoothness, and from the
condition of slough to that of
hard pavement. Good, permanent
bridges have been constructed
throughout some of the Islands, and
improvements in roadways in many
cases made to correspond. For all
this advancement in the right di-
rection let due credit be given to
the Government. Credit, not praise,
for there is too much fuss made
nowadays over the simple perform
ance of duty. No matter how
favorably the present Governments
work in this, or indeed any matter,
may compare with that of former
ones, it must be judged by its own
merits and in the light of the pro-
gress of the country. Not very
great while ago wheeled carriage
roads were not required in the
wheeled carriages. 1t would be
nonsense to compare the roads of
this time with those of that time, in
order to find glory for the Govern
ment of the day in the vast differ
ence. 1t might, in proportionate
degree, be unfair to compare the
present Governments achievements

EXTENSION OF LICENSES.

EDITOR BULLETIN THE friends
of social reform are startled at the
action of the Privy Council in
authorizing the extension Of liquor
licensing to the other islands, and
having recently spent some months
in Hilo, Kohala and Wailuku, / ven
ture to speak of what know of
the drink question in those places,
and the causes which probably in
flucnced the action of the Council.
have no fancy name for the al
coholic spade. The drink traffic is
ever to me a traffic in blood, and ]
regard the men who engage in it for
proit-be they licensed or not
wholesalers or retailers-as the
worst enemies to the state, and
their trade as one against which
organized society must, in pure self
defence, wage unceasing war.
Therefore any apparent encroach-
ment of this subtle enemy to society
over an established boundary line
is a proper cause of alarm.
And here l remark that this is
not political question, it should
never be q party question; it is
one in which every resident, be he
voter or not, has right to be heard,
and one in which every man who
rightly values the natural right to
state protection, and the well-being
of himself and family, will demand
to be heard.
At Hilo, the first place visited,
was surprised at the amount of
undisguised tippling - especially
amongst native women-but the
solution was at hand. l discovered
that there there were not less than
fourteen places where the contra
band article could be bought. About
nine of these dealers were Cinnamon,
one white man, the rest natives and
Portuguese, all carrying on some
other business; but the lions share
of the grog-selling was in the hands
of Chinaman who runs dry goods
store. These men and their doings
are well known to the police, several
of them having been fined by the
police judge, who strictly enforces
the law, but none have been driven
out of the business.
Now l can understand an en-
lightened Privy Councillor reasoning
thus :-''Herc is a large amount of
drunkenness, for the population far
exceeding that of Honolulu, result
ing from a traffic which the police
are powerless to check. If licenses
were granted to responsible persons,
the authorities would be able to
control some of the abuses of selling
which they cannot do now, and last
but not least, the revenue derived
would be acceptable" This is just
what many honest, but mistaken
men think. l cannot trespass fur
ther on your space or l would en-
large upon some of the fallacies of
this logic, but would respectfully
submit to the authorities, that there
is a wholesome police practice in
other countries, which might prove
of service here; change the men to
fresh scene of action at least once
year. The police are as good as
can be expected, and if they can't
regard an illicit dram-seller as a
great malefactor, they are no worse
than their confreres of an older
civilization, for has not Miles.na-
Coppaleen been the stage hero
of Boucicault, and his potheen

The letter of Mr.. Crowley, that of
another correspondent in a former
issue, and several letters in other
papers, show that there is a very
strong feeling abroad against the
action of the Privy Council in ex-
tending the legalized sale of liquor
throughout the Islands. But what
is going to be done about it? There
does not seem to be enough force of
public opinion in the Kingdom to
prevent the perpetration of any
wrong by those in authority.
1t is gratifying to learn that the
japanese Consul is enabled to report
to his Government that his country
men on the plantations are we'll
satisfied, and more than willing to
encourage their friends at home to
come. We can only hope that the
Privy Council will not at some future
day have the humiliation of knowing
that its extension of the liquor traffic
has been the means of demoralizing
that susceptible people and making
them failure to themselves and to
the country. At present that retro
grade policy is the most threatening
element in the prospects of every
description of labor.
Notwithstanding the lull in the
currency controversy and the com.
parative easiness of exchange, there
is still great inconvenience suffered
in local trade from the position in
which the matter is left. Indeed it
is only by mutual concessions and
the waving, through necessity, Of
legal rights, that business can be
done at all to any extent. we have
heard of cases where firms doing a
commission business have undergone
serious hardship from having to give
concessions to their clients which
they could not get for themselves.
There has been great deal of
talk in the currency discussion
about the Chinese boarding and
sending away gold. Three points
should be noted in this regard.
First, the Chinese have a right to
make what disposition they please Of

the advance of the Prussans.h The necessity
of contant touch is exempified by the fact that,
after the battle of Austerlitz, Murat's cavalry
mstook the line of retreat of the allied arny
and so the whole French army pursed on
the wrong road. To obtain the touch of

one regiment to about every six miles of front
