--&: A Dealer" who carefully fol
lows himself the example he blames
upon others of emitting his surname,
gets quite mad at the idea that Oleo-
magazine is sold in this town as butter.
Dealers are generally supposed to get
mad when they are accused of pre-.
cisely what they are in the habit OF
dong; and certainly dealer who
does not put sand in his sugar, acorn
powder in his coffee, and other such
improvements" will not get aroused
if any intimation is made Of such things
being possible. But, to give the pub
lie chance to test the Oleomagarine
question, he offers very" literally to
submit the names "of say five houses"
in town for having their rolls analyzed
by competent chemist. This won
derful challenge, If attempted, would
only elucidate two things: Ist., that
all and every grocery in Honolulu did
not keep Oleomagarine, or at least
keeps enough real butte r to be able to
send something pure to the chemist,
and certainly "Dealer" would be care.
full enough to choose his FIVE names,
SO as not to be liable to conviction.
ad., that ii has long been the beast
of the Oleomagarine manufacturers of
having arrived at such perfection
that their chemical produce defies de-
lection, sand is preferred by many to
real butter Now, if 'aDealer" had
offered to ask the public to take sam
pies Of California butter in all the gro
ceries in town, Chinese and all, then
there would have been some chance
for the public arriving at a fair
view Of the question, as known by
ONE WHO KNOWS.

In our Police Court summary OF
yesterday our reporter was mistaken in
naming disorderly conduct as the
ofense which had been charged
against Messrs. Purdy and Robinson.
The charge was for Constructing and
peryerting justice" in rescuing pris-
oner in the custody of an officer.
The case was tried on Wednesday last
and judgment reserved until yesterday.
The bulk Of the evidence was to the
effect that the officer had been unduly
officicous and intrusive that he was
eourting fight, and got what he had
been looking for. The defendants
were rightly acquitted Of grave charge,
ofwhich no one who knows their rep

them guilty, except on the strongest

-
IA WATIdN Politics.

1t has been heretofore one of the
supposed advantages of residence in
Hawaii nei, that no man need vex
himself over that mystifying muddle OF
modern social life, known to general
humanity elsewhere as politics. Who
ought to be onf eL and who in any
Government Office has not been
matter ofmuch concern to this com
munity until more recently, and a
change in a Cabinet has only been
matter of town talk, heretofore, for the
traditional nine days or less. To
place any matter before the public in
its right light, a single allusion will not
suffice. There must be repetition and
reiteratlon before public attention can
be aroused to action. Soft has come
to pass that polifies, which forms in
other communities SO large part Of
conversation, orof newspaper discussion,
has been, in the earlier periods of Ha-
waiian affairs, allowed to drop out Of
consideration,
But the time has come when such a
course would seem to be out of the
question. Every one, who has any in
terest in the welfare of the country at
large, must give this subject some
thought, and to his thought some fit
ting and forcible expression. Now as
never before are all classes OF this
community called upon to express
themselves fearlessly and freely, and to
make the power Of public opinion felt
and respected. In order to do this,
there must be discussion and agitation.
We have no such opportunity for the
development and training of public
opinion in this small country as is
afforded by the town meeting in the
United States, that most democratic Of
all political assemblies; but, more and
more all the world over, the newspaper
press is the great educator of the
, masses, as well as their spokesman and
representative. Appealing as it does
for support to the general public, it can
neither disregard nor swerve far away
from the average public sentiment.
II we are not mistaken, the time has
come for that public sentiment to cx-
press itself plainly in regard TO the
present political condition Of this
Kingdom.

VAL APPROPRIATION


WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-Secretary
Chandler In answer TO letter from
Representative Randall, chairman of
the house committee on appropriations,
concerning the amounts necessary TO
properly maintain the naval establish
ment, says in part
II venture TO express my regret that
with the naval bills conveniently
awaiting the concurrent action OF the
two houses, II was found impossible TO
PASS any one OF them before January 1.
1885, aud that, therefore, serious
endorsements have arisen In
administering the naval establish
ment. May not / ask the earnest at
tention OF your committee TO the i'm.
portRnce OF speedily terminating the
anomalous condition OF affairs which
makes Il necessary 10 maintain naval
service without the assistance OF the
usual appropriations Therefore The
senate having dropped all proposition
for an appropriation for additional
cruisers and the completing OF the
monitors, the present ques.
ton In controversy seems to
be only this on the one
side whether the appropriation bill for
the balance of the fiscal year shall he
framed after the confederation In de-
detail OF the estimates which the law re.
quires TO be submitted to congress for
the special needs OF the service, for the
year, and whether the specific amount
to be applicable TO each object OF appro.
priation shall be distinctly named
In the bill, or on the
other side, whether without such
consideration there shall be appropri-
ated In general terms 80 per cent OF
the amounts granted on last yearis bill
| for the various objects specifically
named In that bill. surely this ques-
ton is not "A vital one. The iirst meth
cd Is undoubtedly the wiHest
and safest, conforming TO
the practice which has never
been and never should be departed
from except In an emergency. The
second Is n loose, irregular and dan
gerous measure, taking from the treas.

lions on the face OF the act as 10 the

be applied. But 10 Is better TO

Died of His Wound.

Willie ROmine, the little boy who
wits shot by the tramp named Abner,
some time ago, died at 415 O'Clock
Friday afternoon. A post mortem
examination was held 10y Drs. Wright
and Trawick, the attending physicians,
assisted by Drs. Marable and Carney
Drs. Beaumont and Herring also be-
ing present. 1t was ascertained that
the ball penetrated to the interior of the
abdomen, bat that the intestines were
not ruptured. The immediate cause
of the death WAS acute peritonitis,
which is inaamraation of the perito-
neum, or inner lining of the abdo-
men,.
The death occurred on the 21st day
after the shooting was done When it
was first ascertained that the bowels
were not injured itT was hoped that
the patient would recover, and on the
18th day he seemed to be much bet
ter, but after that time he grew steadily
worse.
Willie Rominc was about IL years
old. The remains were inferred at /
o'clock Saturday, with services by Rev.
I. l.. Moody. Abner, the man who
did the shooting, is In Jail.
