moment. Under this more polished YER
sion, where will Marshall Wright find
himself? Under Democratic interpre-
tation OF tho Cleveland platform he will
not fail to be adjudGed guilty as ian
offensive manipulation Of local party man
agement." Would not Colonel Whitfield
be obliged to plead guilty and be forced
aside in spite of his unexpired commits
siouH And Colonel aiarkbreit, too, with
his able newspaper, could he for one
moment escape this severe application OF
Democratic civil gervice? Will the plea
that they have all been excellent officers

are sufficient to show that the Cincinnati

The Michigan men also find in the let
ter abundant evidence that the President
has had his attention attracted to their
proposition. They discovered it in the
declaration that appointments will only
be made after sufficient inquiry" as to
fitness has been instituted "by those
charged with the duty" This, the Michi-
gan men declare, necessitates much help
for Mr.. Cleveland.
From this they jump TO the conclusion
that no one can give such valuable assist
ance as the Congressmen-elect or the
Democratic Congressman defeated in the
various districts. They even SO so far ms
to hold that no others than themselves
could have been in Mr.. CleVelands mind
when he wrote OF those charges with that
duty" They seem TO feel quite as elated
as the Arkansas men, and regard the
Michigan plan firmly fixed in Mr.. Cleve-
lands policy. 1t will be remembered that
this scheme was to give all the patronage

icate ground is trodden on. Did the said
President ever hear of an offer being made
that different treatment might be accorded
10 the MaRras, if her Captain would trans
fer the agency from the firm to which he
had entrusted it. to another which was
Fuegesteds It might be well for the Pres
Sdent and his Secretary to be explicit on
this point
The ddCertisey also ventures to say, that
nothing will be heard of the Madras claim
after Her Majesty's Government has read
the reply of His Excellency the Foreign
Minister to Major Wodehouse's communl-
cation" Perhaps if His Excellency Will
break through his rule, or practice OF
knowing nothing about the paper In ques-
ton he might inform the public through
its columns as to how long Her Majesty's s
Government have had His Excellency's
communication under consideration, and
if the latest exchanged papers on the sub
iect tend to show that Lord Granville
was of the opinion that ''the owners of the
Madras had not leg to stand upon, either
in law or equity"
We are furthermore told that the Madras
was again quarantined, and prevented
landing her passengers by the Provincial
Government of Victoria, against whom no
claim has been preferred.
This is simply untrue except IN so far
as the statement that the ship was quar-
antined, but her passengers were landed
promptly and properly cared for. She
did not lay at anchor for two months and
more off Victoria, breeding disease, sight
TO make the angels weep at the folly and
inhumanity of men dressed in little brlet
authority, as she was compelled to do
here. ----..- ..... -......
At Victoria she was not denied entry at
the Custom House, she was not denied
either quarantine or prdtique, she was not
scolded with the mere repetition of ''go
away. we have no rules or regulations for
YOU" her Captain was not approached
with the bribe of different treatment il he
would change her agents, nor was he OF
fered entry at the price of mortgaging his
own and his employers property by means
of the most preposterous bond that man
was ever invited to sign.
The treatment of the Madras here, was d
hideous bungle of inhumanity and inca
pacity. and an attempt to make political
and private capital out of disaster.
If the President of everything will spare
a few moments of his valuable time to
read the account in the Adrertiser of the
proceedings of the party on board the tug
Eleu one evening last week he may see
that he is represented as being present at,
and participator in certain occurrences
which came perilously near to, if they did
not cross the line, of breach of quaran

The English ship and the Japanese have
not been treated without discrimination.

ANOTHER OF those far sighted acts for
which the Board of Health ought to get a
blast Of praise from the official newspaper,
is for the small supply of vaccine matter
ON hand There ought to have been an
ample supply: it was known the Japanese
vessel was coming and it ought to have
been known TO our health authorities that
when bringing large numbers of immi-
grants from an Asiatic port there is always
more or less danger of small pox or other
contagious diseases being introduced The
children OF the country should long ago
have been carefully vaccinated, and If
should not have been left for hurTying
and a scmTying just when small pox has
put hand on the Intel of our doors
That the Portuguese should object to in
discriminate vaccination we can well un-
derstand, the same feeling is shared by
other nationaliies. When the vaccinating
is done, it should be done judiciously, but
1t should have been done long ago.

WEDNESDAY, JULY !. 1886.

TIM Fourth Of July promises to be cele
brated by the American Citizens Of this
CITY In q thorough and patriotic style,
The great national day Of any people is a
day worthy Of remembrance. The Ma
tional Day Of the United States is the
more worthy Of remembrance in that it
commemurates the birth of one Of the
mightiest nations on the face Of the earth, a
nHtion which has showed powers of devel-
opment which have astonished the world.
II is pleasing that the bitterness of quar-
rel of a century ago has completely passed
away and that the United States and Eng
land bound together by ties Of language,
lood, and like aspirations after the lib
erty of the subject are to-day firm friends.
May our American fellow citizens, then,
thoroughly enjoy the FOURTH OF july.

Miss ASSIs MONTAGUE, more Familiarity
known to our kamaaiaas as Miss Mary
Cooke. leaves the Islands to-day. Hawai-
ians should be proud of their songstress
Miss Cooke has carried and will carry the
name of Hawaii to many climes, and where
ever she goes, she will in the future as she
has in the past, do honor to the land OF
her birth 1t is something for country
to say that it has produced a truly artistic
singer, an actress Of merit, and above all a
thoroughly good woman. Natural gifts
culture and SO forth are marred, the beau
tiftl rystal looks split and shattered, when
the element of true goodness is absent.
Miss Cooke Mrs. Turner is living rep
resentative Of the breadth of Anglo-Sax,
ondom. She comes of an old missionary
family on these Islands, and of old Puritan
stock in the United States. There are
often .slurs of an unworthy and malicious
character cast upon the former mission
aries of these Islands, and the Puritans OF
the United States We have before us a
living instance of lady sprung from such
stock, who is an ornament to her profes-
sion, thus showing that the slurs and NAL
iciousness have really no foundation. The
Lyme Drama, as represented by MI. ana
Mrs Turner, has been patronized by every
class of this community, and we regard
her visit, apart from the pleasure, which
so many Of us have gained during her
stay amongst us, as one greatly calculated
20 assist the cause of progress in mental
ideas, as tending towards that breadth,
that true humanity which is the crowning
grace of modern civilization. 1t marks a
drowning or setting aside of old prejudices
and arising up of the broad platform upon
which all can meet.
Such is our opinion OF the effect of the
visit of Miss Montague among her own
people. A lesson such as this is more
quickly learned 10y the arg,meatum ad homi-
mem than by all the theory in the world.
Hawaii, of every class of thought now
knows that purity and refinement can be
adjuncts of the stage, that to be Of the
stage is not of itself iniquity. Such ales-
son, so taught, marks an era in our little
national life. All happiness then, for
many seasons 10 Mr. and Mrs Turner in
their future career: it cannot but be bril-
liant

VINO can say that the Hawaiian Islands
are besotted with laziness. and that their
inhabitants cannot rise superior to prices
current and to the examination OF sugar
& sRmples7 The liberal manner in which all
good entertainments are patronized, the
large attendance at, and the interest shown
in our schools, the number OF books. mag
azines and newspapers imported by every
steamer, all point to a broader plane than
that Of mere. money getting and money
grubbing. And it is by no means the cap
ital where the higher pursuits arefoIlowed.
OF the country villages, many have their
little library societies. Hilo in this respect
seems even to have eclpsed the capital.
From our news columns will be gathered
what the Shakespeare Society of Hawaii's
most tropical town has done There used
% be a very fair Shakespeare Society in
Honolulu, but it has gone the way Of many
another good Intention good deal of
that celebrated broad road must get its
pavement direct from here. Why should
not the society be revived? We ought
never 10 allow the provinces to beat the
capital. All credit to the Hiloites for their
success nevertheless. st.a rrrfs

A CABLE dispatch was received resently to the
effect that U. S. Minister Foster had succeeded
the United States and Spain. The new treaty, it
is reported, is TO include, Cuba, Porto Rico, the
PHILIPPINE Islands and other Spanish Colonies.
The discussions upon the last treaty with Spain
treaty by the Americans 1t is to be hoped that
Mr.. Foster, having become acquainted with the
ideas of the representatives of commercial inter
ests at home, has succeeded in negotiating treaty
which will obviate the objections to the previous
one and be acceptable to the mercantile classes
of the United States.

is something radically wrong about a sys-
tenn which allows one class of offenders to
go free, while it represses another and a
poorer class. Shooting matches on Sun
day have not been unknown about HonU-
lulu, and yet not an effort has been made
by the police to check them. There are
Sunday poker parties also, as well as week
day ones, but we never hear of houses
where such things go on being Nraided'

was not 50 long ago that three Chinarnen

COLONEL Preilavsli, the weIl-known Russian
explorer of Central Asia, writes TO the Geographi-
cal Society at home that he has discovered gold
mines, worked by the natives of Thibet, SO e1ten-
sve that he ventures the opinion that this country
will prove the equal of California in this precious
mineral. Near the head of the Hoang-ho, on the
southern slope of one of its tributaries, he came
across some thirty Tawgots engaged in a rough
sort of placer mining, taking the gravel from q
depth of only one or two feet, and yet, as result
of this ancient method of obtaining the gold, the
natives had great quantities of the mineral in
large pieces, none of them being smaller than a
pea. of course, civilized handling of the deposits
would make such gravel pay enormously at small
outlay, aud the deposits are Of the most extensive
character, the whole northern part of Thibet be
iuu rich in such areas

OF tons annually. Coming nearer home the West
Indian islands and South America universally
produce it from the cane. Australasia has sue

Some idea can be formed of the mart which su-
gar plays N the economies of everyday life. when
we consider that in Great Britain, where sugar is
sold at a lower price than in any other country
over fifty cents are expended in sugar for every dol
lar IN wheat In this country however, the e1pendi
ture is still greater our last year sugar bill amount
ing to $l7l 1856 81, of which amount no less than
100 749 was paid in duty as protection to the
SD,OOOOOo worth grown at home. If we take the
annual consumption of wheat at ~ bushels per
capita, 1t gives us gross expenditure at Soc a
bushel in round numbers of 500 1000 OO0 therefore
for every dollar expended in wheat Soc was ex-
pended in sugar; under such circumstances the
sugar supply Is an important and serious matter
The imports last year constituted 1886 per cent
tf our total import trade. The consumption per
capita is rapidly advancing, having increased
from 25.s7 pounds in 1867 to 80 pounds in 1884,
WITH respect to the consumption of sugar, Bri-
tish India must be considered by far the largest
consumer, it being used there in very large duan-
titles. The United kingdom comes next, with an
estimated consumption at the present time of II
