Last week in refuting the arrogant
claim of The Tribune that the people
of this vicinity We're in duty bound to
vote for Hon. e.. e.. Cox because he
had secured for the Mineral Point fair
an appropriation of 5000 per annum for
the past two years we stated that the
appropriation was made on motion of
Hon. G. w. Priestley, of ShullSburg.
We were virtually correct in the state
ment as an appropriation of $500 per
year which Mr.. Cox was instrumental
in securing was on motion OF Mr..
Priestley raised to 5000 and passed.
Mr.. Cox is umquestionablv entitled to
credit for his efforts in working 10
secure the appropriation, and we make
this explanation lest our readers would
think us unwilling to accord credit
where credit is due We do not offer
it as an aplogy, as The Tribune which
advanced such an arrogant selfish claim
is certainly not eetitled to any and Mr..
Cox ought to know better that to RELY
upon such weak and silly old organ
to advocate his cause.

THE PACIFIC CABLE.

An Ottawa despatch of July 18th
says:--
Sanford Fleming, one of the best
civil engineers of Canada, sailed for
England to-day on behalf of the
Canadian Pacific Railway, to confer
with the Imperial Government and
Australian Agent General concern
ing the establishment of cable COM
munication between Canada, Japan
and Australia, and to ascertain the
amount of annual subsidy which the
Colonies will guarantee. Sir Charles
Upper will also receive instructions
from the Dominion Government in
connection with q similar scheme.
This is Fleming's scheme, which the
Imperial authorities promise to sup
port. The idea is to lay cable
from Victoria, B. c., thence either
to the Aleutian or Sandwich Islands
thence to Iedo, Japan; thence to
Hongkong, and from there to Aus
tralia, where it is understood here
that q cable is to be laid and con-
nected with the Canadian Pacific
Railway telegraph system.
We are not sufficiently posted in
the question to give any information
as to the relative physical advan-
tages of the Aleutian and the Ha-
waiian Islands. In view of the prob
able certainty of cable being laid,
however, it seems to be well worth
while for our Government to con-
slider, while the Legislature is in ses.
sion, what inducements this king.
dom can afford to bring about de-
cision, on the part of the layers o1
the cable to make these Islands the
central Pacific station.

Since establishing our Mission in this
city, we have frequently been solicited
to procure larger and more convenient
quarters for worship and Bible class,
quite number expressing themselves
as willing TO contribute toward the
necessary expense. We have now Sc.
cured the building on Fort street, for.
merly used as gymnasium, thus incur
ring quite debt besides, some changes
are necessary. Therefore we would say
to all who would esteem it privilege to
aid us in the matter, that they can con.

addressed to the Legislative Assem-
bly,, yet it would hardly be proper
or consistent for the Assembly to do
more than make recommendation
to the Bureau of Education, unless
indeed such dissatisfaction existed
with said bureau as to induce the
Legislature to enact laws compelling
certain lines of action, and such
dissatisfaction does not now exist.
With regard to the prayers of said
petitions your committee find on ex-
animation that the school house in
Alae is in sad need of repairs and
that they should be made as soon as
possible.
With respect to an English school
in Kaupo, there are already three
good Hawaiian schools at that place
while there are but sixty children of
school age more or less the expense
and outlay necessary to establish
and maintain an English school also
would hardly be justifiable.
If however the three Hawaiian
schools were discontinued material
enough would exist for an English
school. But it would involve the
construction of new school house
and the employment of an English
teacher, the consideration of the
Board of Education 10 this matter is
recommended.
Also school houses at both Kalua-
aha and Halawa on Molokai would
he of benefit to those districts for
the buildings now there are small
and inconvenient and hardly suited
to the requirements Of those places.
