W. L. Couch, president of the Oklaho-
ma colony, has written the following in
reply to Gen. Hatch's proclamation pub
lished in Saturdays papers:
Maj. Gen. Edward hatch:
DEAR SIR: Your communication ad-
dressed ITO whom 1t may concern" Is
received, In which you state that you
"are In command of = large force, with
Instructions to see that the proclamation
of the president and the laws are OBJ
served In the Indian Territory OF Okla
homa for the ejectment of persons who
are now there without authority" Be
ing party concerned, we desire to call
your attention to the fact that we have
previously and upon several different
occasions been arrested by military force
and elected from the Oklahoma
country, charged with violsting the law
upon which the presidents proclamation
was issued. We have been arraigned
and tried In the United States court, dis
trict of Kansas, and Judge Foster de-
cided that we commit no offense In set
ling on the Oklahoma lands"
This decision was based upon the
grounds that the title to these lands was
in the United States government. We
therefore deny your right to again eject
us by military force.
Ou obSO SJoIc Iudl II - WllHlu your
knowledge that hundreds of men have
banded together TO resist with arms tue
execution OF the law, N avowed insur-
rection against the government" This
charge we positively deny. We are
here
AS GOOD LAW-ABIDING CITIZENS.
In proof OF our claim we quote you sec
ton 1857 revised statutes of the United
States;
Heals of families. widows or single
persons twenty one years of age or over
who are citizens of the United States,
or have declared their intentions to be-
come citizens as required by the natural

emption to the extent of one quarter OF

IF IT IS.

If The question of tile of Oklahoma is
disputed, we refer you to the treaties of
1868 between the Creek and Seminole
Indians, and the United State govern
ment, wherein the Indians have sold
and conveyed to the United States all
their right and title to that portion OF
the Territory known as Oklahoma.
With reference to any unlawful action
on our part leading TO the sacrifice of
human lite, we desire to say that
YOU NEED HAVE NO FEAR;
that We will harm no one unless driven
to do SO in defence of our own lives and
property, which we claim thu right to
do under the constitution and laws OF
our country.
We are not in rebellion against the
laws OF our country, We have raised no
insurrection. And it must be distinctly
understood that if a drop of blood is
spilled, il will be at your hands.
You should also remember that no
one is so exalted as to be above the Law, ~
NOT EVEN THE PRESIDENT
of the United States.
You state that to all persons legisla-
tiOn is open to settle all grievances We
would state, also, that the courts are
open for the same purpose, and that we
are within the jurisdiction of those
courts; that If We haYe violated the law.
we can be taken before the court by civil
process without your assistance.
In reference to the statement that 1t is
the Intention of the leadsrs of the colony
To force the members into a collision with
the troops, We simply say that it is false
Referring to that portion threatening
us with Indians, etc. We must say we
cannot believe that it was intended for
us. 1t must have been intanded for some
eastern paper, calculated to create a sen
sstiOn. It might take we'll if published
in the New England states, bat in the
west where every one knows that there
are no rowing bands of hostile Indians
in this country. 1t will hardly answer
the purpose. We are abundantly able
to protect ourselves against any such.
In conclusion, we agree with you that
If you observe the law as closely as we
do, there will be none.
Most respectfully yours,

NEW SYSTEM OF TELEGRAPHY.

An interesting exhibition of new
system of telegraphy, which is ex-
pected to measurably revolutionize
telegraphic and telephone service,
was given in Philadelphia on Mon
day. There were present by invi-
tation number of New York and
Philadelphia capitalists, electricians
and representatives of the press.
The tests were highly successful.
A single ordinary telegraph wire
conveys the electric current and
operates the receiving machine. In
appearance the sending machine is
very much like an ordinary type
writer. The instrument has forty
two keys, the letters of the alphabet,
the numerals and few punctuation
marks, and every letter or sign
struck by the sending apparatus
was instantly shown both upon that
instrument and the receiver. Pres
sure upon any key caused certain
number of magnetic impulses to
pass through the line. The number
of these impulses differs for each let
ter, and they bring corresponding let
terson the type wheel of hereceiving
instrument into such position as to
make the impression upon paper.
Any person who can read can trans
nit and receive messages through it
as correctly as could the most ex-
perienced expert using the Morse
instrument. 1t is as rapid as it is
accurate, all messages by it being
automatically printed, both at the
point of transmission and that of
reception. II cannot be read by
sound, and is consequently valuable
for preserving privacy in electrical
communication.
The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1885-07-17

ate appropriation by the Legislature
is being applied to the improvement
of Thomas Square. A street rail-
way on King or Beretania Street
would make it easily accessible to
thousands with whom it is now un-
known ground. In anticipation of
the accomplishment, before many
years, of some sort of easy transit, the
improvement of this square should
be carried on with expedition. 1t
would be good place now for an
afternoon airing if there were any
seats in il. These should be sup
piled at once, and the square then
be given a share of the Royal Bands
services.
There is need for other squares in
the city, however hopeless it might
be to advocate them ut present. A
pleasant little park could be made
at one of several appropriate spots
along the Nuuanu stream. China
town ought to have its solidarity
broken up by two or three open
squares. The whole block on which
the Government buildings stand
should, if possible, be secured for
the public, and fitted up for band
concerts. 1t is the centre of Il po-
pulous district, and, with the addi-
tional attraction of the museum in
Aliiolani Hale, should be the scene
of large and happy gatherings every
afternoon. Like great many other
desirable objects for the common
welfare, however, this matter OF
breathing spaces must, VIC suppose,
be for the most part relegated to
that glorious period in dim futurity
when the citizens of Honolulu will
have the privilege of taxing them
selves for necessary improvements
and the intelligence to know that
means of health and happiness fol
the people can scarcely be too dearly
bought.
The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1885-07-17
PUBLIC SQUARES.

An abundance of breathing spaces
is necessary in every town of any
size, for the well-being and health
full pleasure of the inhabitants. Pub
lie squares should be so distributed
over town that nobody would have
to go far from home to reach one.
These places of resort should be
fully supplied with conveniences for
rest and recreation for old and
young. They should have trees,
flowers, fountains, aquaria, and
other accessories of comfort and
esthetic enjoyment; also, facilities
and appliances for juvenile amuse-
ments. Such public squares as Ho-
nolulu has are not to be despised.
AS beginnings and promises of bet
ter things in the future they are in a
degree creditable. Emma Square,
the chief, is not unequal, unless Oh
rare occasions, to the accommoda-
ton of all who patronize the delight
full band concerts of evenings. But
it has not the attractions to assem-
BILE ladies and children, for pleas
ant airing, in daylight when there is
no music. 1t is, moreover, not
large enough to receive more fur
nishing of trees or other appurtc-
nances without unc0mfortably mar
rowing the spaces for the public.
Thomas Square is much larger than
Emma, and, although central to a
large district, is out of the way OF
the majority of people most needing
such a resort, namely, those living
in the more closely-built parts.
This square is, however, from its
respectably-sized area, more capa'
BILE of being made something APP
preaching an ideal resting and pleas,
uripg ground. At present moder.

The SITUATION.

A correspondent strikes n rotten
plank in the ship of state, when he
refers to the difficulty of securing
an independent Legislature so long
as salaried officials are eligible to
seats in the Assembly. This and
other grave abuses in the system of
government can only be eradicated
by all who are in favor of reform
combining to stand and strive to-
gether until their aim is accomplished.
Elections, and legislation, and cabi-
net-malling will be, to great extent,
farces until solid party is formed
upon a basis of radical reform.
Those who possess an intelligent ap-
probation of free and responsible
constitutional government must, first
of all, unite upon the requirements
of the kingdom in that respect, and
then, with unfaltering purpose and
indefatigable effort, pursue measures
toward the desired end. No spas
modic effort on the eve of the cleo
tions, or popular ebullition of feeling
during legislative session to inhu-
ence isolated acts, can have cndur-
ing results worth the trouble. AS
our correspondents remarks imply,
it is not so much the imprcgnable
position of the present Ministry that
stands in immediate necessity of
being overcome, as the apathy and
inertness of those who possess the
weightier interests in the welfare of
the kingdom. In the meantime, the
indications are that the next Legis-
lature will be much less independent
than even the last one. In that case,
spectacle of Legislative tinkering
will be presented which, perhaps,
will be the first in long series of
retributivc results upon the people
for their neglect Of duty. Before
discussing an Opposition Cabinet,
an Opposition party and policy
should be formed.

WHATS THE R0W2"

EDITOR BULLETIN In the name
of the "Prophet Figs" what's the
row? Because l simply suggested
in my article q somewhat different
Ministry to that proposed by Gao
ton" and said, to wait for the cleo
ton was farce, / am attacked and
called ''nasty old fogy," and that
l suggest the importation of French
communists, &C., and that l am u
newspaper man (save the mark),
and that l have no vote, and that l
have been bought up by w. M.
Gibson to write articles to discour-
age voters, &C., and, lastly, that
there is something wrong with my
mind. Now, without going into a
long discussion to disprove the above
charges, i will put what have to
say in a few words.
So long as members receive $500
Il session and then are appointed
either rs assessors or tax collectors
Con the 3Oth June following the
opening of legislaturc), and the same
men run again for next term, so
long will it be impossible to get an
independent house, for if the city
of Honolulu, which returns four
members, return such, as they did
last time, what can we expect of the
outlying districts?
The reason l stated in former
letter that it was % members Us. 20
Mobiles and four Ministers, was, that
even supposing we got influential
leaders and did succeed in electing
the whole % members as Independ-
ents, what could they do? A cer-
tain number of them would be
bought, which would counterbalance
the votes of the few Independent
mobiles, and then we have the chance
of the Kings veto. So that vote
taken of want of confidence in the
present Ministry would have poor
chance of success, at least so it has
proved before, and will again, and
that is why l call it a fallacy to wait
for election.
For years the cry has been, sob,
you wait till next legislature, and
then see." Notably the last, when
The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1885-07-17

so much was expected, for, after all,
what did the Opposition really do?
How the Ministers must laugh in
their sleeve, to see how very easy
they can, and do, control every
thing, in spite of all newspaper talk
and articles written on the abuses
that arise from time TO time.
Outside the correspondents who
answered my letter / was honored
by leading article from "The
Great Newspaper" p. G. A.--at
least "Action" and myself were.
That paper does not like the subject
opened out, and in calmly sarcas-
tic article states that at present
"there is no Vacancy" &c. That's
,chatS tie matter. There should
be, and put in men that have the
confidence of the community and
who have an interest and a stake in
the country.
In signing myself one Awaiting
Action" l was also somewhat sar-
castle, for l for a long while have
given up hope of any Improvement,
for when our most influential and
wealthy men, who have their all at
stake, do nothing, what can the
small fry do? And newspaper talk,
without influence TO back it, can
and does do nothing. AS ! stated,
/ have no hope, for you could not
get six men of any weight, to take
any steps toward reform. Although
all think it needed, their only hopes
seem to be in a future legislature,
which l call fallacy. l do not
advocate violence of any kind, more
particularly as our war vote for
troops was $4,000. feel grateful
to the editor that he expunged cer-
tain remarks in "Action's" second
letter, for it seems a pity that one
cannot write without being personal.
Although l am supposed to have in
tended sneer at an honorable gen.
tleman in my first letter-so far
from it, l would like him very much
as our future Attorney-General, but
did not suppose he would accept it.
On the other hand l am delighted
to read that others would accept 'it
it was the unanimous voice of the
public"
But l will not trespass on your
space any farther, but hope shall
not be called everything that is bad
because l am simply
