PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

Every available means for the ad-
vancement and support of the public
school system should be adopted. The
present plan of appointing teachers
has proved inadequate to supply the
schools with any thing like a compe-
tent corps 1t is unfortunate that any
public school should be maintained in
part by tuition fees, and all should be
absolutely free from any thing like
Sectarian influence and control. The
collections of taxes for school purposes
by collectors for that especial purpose,
entails an unnecessary expense. The
regular tax collectors should be re-
quired to perform this duty.

WATER.

The longer the Legislature defers the in
auguration of a more extended, uniform
and scientific system of irrigation, the more
hurtful the delay becomes to the growth and
productiveness of the Territory. A system
which, while preserving the vested rights of
the people in their water supply, will, at the
same time, supply greater area of equally
good land, must prove beneficial to those
already possessed of and those DESTROYS of
obtaining homes. Quite a number of arte-
sian wells have been driven during the past
year with satisfactory results. This enter
prise upon the part of individuals should
be encouraged.

we hold that if the Io7 Chinese lately

Upon what date did they start in

is the official organ of the Hawaiian

questions. The assertion that the Id
0sr1isey does "not see the necessity
for making any fuss about it" is a mere
evasion. The people, who from ex-

The Adserfisey has just awakened to
the fact that cattle as we'll as goats are
running at large in Honolulu contrary
to law and appeals to the Minister of
the Interior, for redress. Now, this is
all very nice, but the Adoertisey knows
as well as anybody that it is unjust and
unfair to blame the Government for
these things. The Government is do
ing all it can with its limited means to
make the people happy, and if these
very people who are complaining of
the cattle and goats would do their
part and fence in the land or would
put their hands in their pockets and
aid the Government in providing the
luxury of enforcing the laws, there
would be but little trouble in putting
these matters to rights, and placing the
responsibility where it properly belongs
upon the shoulders ofthe people who
complain. We depreciate the constant
abuse OF the Government officials by
the Adosrhisey, and demand that if the
people do not remedy the nuisance
that the Government shall order the
thing done on credit and charge it up
against the property of these complain
ing tax-payers-if they have any.

Signs of Progress in Japan.

Scholars who are familiar with the
Chinese language agree that there will
not be much progress with the Mongo-
liam races while they can only gain
knowledge of facts and ideas through
representative pictures, rather than by
words made up of alphabetical charac
ters. A writer in the London Times
thus explains the difficulty of adapting
Chinese characters to the use of Japan
ese, whose language is derived from
Chinese sources: "The Japanese mode
of using the Chinese character adds to
its inherent difficulty. The Chinese
employ the full square form, or one al
most identical with it, but in Japan
various abbreviations, often widely
different from the parent form, are used,
which are only occasionally resorted to
in China. 1t is serious thing to ac-
quire knowledge of some 5000 to
1900 characters-many say know
ledge of 5000 is necessary - in order
to read Japanese with ease; but when
each of these characters is susceptible
of from three to dozen abbreviated
forms the task becomes almost superhu-
man. Not content with this compli-
Gated system, the Japanese have in
vented two syllabaries Of Al char
acters each, and OF one of these-the
Hiragana-each character is again sus-
ceptible of eight or ten forms, some of
which are authorizations, while others
are original FORMS Lastly, in decipher-
ing their texts, the Japanese must at
one time translate it into japanese or
Sinico-J Japanese, at another transliterate
it phonetically, and nothing but long
practice can enable them to distinguish
the cases in which the former or the
latter process ought to be employed.
From the tolls of such system think
it will be admitted that the Japanese
are justified in seeking an early escape
Once free from them the Japanese Ian
guage, in itself plastic from of speech,
may gradually shed its excess Of
sinicisms and become the vehicle of a
literature worthy Of the most intelligent
and attractive of Eastern peoples.
Lastly, the peculiar facility of the Japa-
nese in freehand drawing, rightly termed
marvellous by Mr.. Dillon, is due, not
SO much to the complications of theil
written characters as to the fact (among
others) that they paint their speech
with brush, and do not write it with
pen or pencil. No doubt the Romani
cation of the written language will tend,
as Mr.. Dillon points out, to destroy
thir source of their artistic excellence
bu he fact is hardly worth regretting,
as ich more powerful causes are at
wo. which have already reduced the
art of Japan to rocco imitation oi
past forms, and must, before long, re-
place it by mere cleverness Of crafts
manship."
