T II Il
SATURDAY
THE LEGISLATURE.

We feel constrained to praise the Leg
islative Assembly for the satisfactory
way in which it disposed OF the business
before it yesterday. There was a spirit
OF Cancellation and fairness, which pro
duced very satisfactory results. The es-
Inmates we're considered in Committee
of the Whole, and a reduction Of 5000
was made in one item in the Bureau OF
Water Works, to placate the champions
of economy. The sum is not a large one,
and we suppose the work may be done
for the amount voted, but an officer who
is required TO give bonds and holds
position of trust and responsibility
should be suitably paid. There may
have been special reasons, however, in
this case for reducing the estimate, but
we hardly think it was wise economy to
do so.
1t was peculiarly gratifying to listen to
the debate on the vote OF $4,000 for
maintenance of nurseries. The entire
question of forest conservation and ex-
tension was opened by this item, mas
recommended in his report that bu-
reau of forestry be created and pro-
vision made therefor.l During the dis
cussion the idea was thrown out by His
Excellency Mr.. Gibson, chat select
committee on forestry should be APP
pointed to outline a general plan but it
was replied that the time was too short
for effective work, and that all that can
be accomplished this session is to APP
prove the idea generally, and make SUI
ficient provision for continuing the work
of forest culture so well begun under the
direction of Mr.. Jaeger at Makiki. Hon.
Mr.. Bishop made practical speech, and
Mr.. Cecil Brown bore testimony to the
very promising results already achieved.
The item passed as printed in the bill.
This short discussion in the Legisla-
ture is calculated to do great deal of
good. 1t shows that strong general
interest has been created on the subject
of tree planting and forest conservancy.
No more important question can be con-
sidered by the Legislature, and it is to
be hoped that during the recess meas
ures will be taken for obtaining fuller in
formation regarding forestry in other
countries than is already possessed by
the Government, with view to future
Legislation. Meanwhile a comprehen-
sive report should be made on the re-
naming forests of the Kingdom. 1t
would doubtless contain practical sug-
gestions for their conservancy. This is a
most important branch of the subject
from an economic point of view. 1t is
cheaper and easier to preserve than to
create. The Legislature would do well
to consider this point and vote a suffi-
cient sum for the purpose.
The days doings terminated with the
adoption of a resolution, on motion
of Mr.. Hayselden, for the appointment
of a select committee on tariff revision
This will be an important committee
In any tariff changes that may be made
the extension of trade should be kept il
view as fully as the idea of revenue
That the revenue needs to be increased
cannot be denied, and we hope and trust
the committee in question will be sue
cessful in reporting an amended tariff
which will fulfill the conditions required
of it.

LAND FOR SETTLEMENT.

1t has been the habit for Opposition
speakers and writers TO attack the pres
ent Administration for not giving i'm
mediate effect TO the Homestead Law OF
1884. The ADVERTISER took pains to
analyze this law, and point out that it
was vaIueless except as affirming princi
pies OF colonization and settlement for
future guidance. The machinery created
bv the Act is wholly defective. With
the most loyal appreciation of duty by
the Minister OF the Interior, and with
entirely favoring conditions, it would be
impossible TO carry ont the intention Of
the Act without amendment. Doubt
less advantage might be taken
of it to dispose OF few coveted
acres in the valleys adjacent to Homo
lulu, for not doing which indeed the

A Connecticut Cat Story
Norwich BulIetin.l

There were three cats in a Williams street
family, and the lady of the house cOnclud-
ed that one was sufficient to do all the bust
ness, and an edict of death was passed on
the old cat and her kitten. The question of
the manner of death was settled and the
chloroform purchased. Days passed after
the chlorofOrm was in the house before the
executiOner could muster courage to exc
cute the sentence. To facilitate matters
the lady thought that some laudanum add
ed to the cats milk would produce a stupor
that would make the chloroform more easy.
The drug was put in the milk and rendered
the old cat. She tasted the food, cast her
eyes suspiciously around her, and refused
to eat The kitten rushed to the dish to
partake of the milk and was violently
knocked away by the old cat, who took
corner of a mat and covered over the dish
10 hide it from the kitten and prevent her
from taking the medicine" The lady
could not believe it possible that the act
was intentional on the part of the cat, and
uncovered the dish and again rendered the
dish to her. She again knocked the kitten
from the dish and covered it over more
carefully than before. This repetition of
the protective act gained the goodwill Of
the lady, and she gave up killing the cats.
She can not satisfy her mind, however,
whether the action of the cat was prompt
I'd by instinct or reason.

LIBEL SUIT WITHDRAWN.
The Chicago Daily News Wins . Libel suit
without . Trial.

CHICAGO April 12.-The Daily News to-
day published the following in it's editorial
columns: 'The other day an unfortunate
girl named Jessie Jones, or Jessie Woods,
died in an opium-smoking den in this city.
In perfectly proper investigation OF the
facts the Daily News learned that she had
been at one time more or less intimate
with Mr.. F. H. Winston, the American min
ister to Persia. This was published pre-
cisely as it would have been il any other
man had been involved, in obedience to q
rule imperative in this Office. There
was no attempt to force sensation
out OF the business, neither was MIR. Win
ston given any exemption because OF his
wealth or position. All that seemed wise
and proper to print was printed. Then
followed a libel suit for $50, 900. Some un-
truthful cable messages were given publicity
to convince people that the Daily News had
done injustice. Weknew better. We warned
Mr.. Winston's friends that in beginning an
action they had been guilty of an indiscre-
ton and then awaited developments. Last
Saturday there arrived the following letter
which requires no explanation. We betrny
no confidence in publ shing it: d.
