The Postmaster General.
Editor Daily Honolnln Press.

Editor Daily Honolulu Press.
DEAR SIR have learned through
a reliable channel, that the letter OF
dismission sent by the Minister of the
Interior to the late Postmaster General,
while admitting the great ability and
efficiency Of Mr.. Whitney, gave as the
reason for dismissing him, that the
Department had been unable to effect
through him certain objects deemed i'm
portant.
What were those objects2 The Min
ister's letter does not specify them. But
we can readily infer their nature from
obvious facts. The late Postmaster
was thoroughly able and efficient in all
the proper work of his Office, and had
successfully organized money order
system and other improvements. But
in one most essential duty of the head
of a Bureau under the present Govern
ment, he lacked proper zeal and energy
He failed to impress upon the mind:
of every postmaster, letter carrier, anc
other subordinate, the necessity of be
ing an active partisan of the Ad
ministration.
Such remissness can no longer b.
endured, and as great evil is now t.
be corrected, Hon, J. L. Kaulukou i
the man selected as most competent t.
introduce the proper discipline int
this neglected department, and to maxi
every subordinate distinctly compre
bend that lukewarmness towards the
Administration will no longer b.
tolerated.
Mr.. Kaulukou has merited we'll O
his superiors, and evinced his specia
fitness for the present duty, by his err
ergetic and successful bulldozing of tn
Island of Hawaii during his incun
bency as Sheriff. We may now expec
to see this important object of tn
Government attained. 1t is no doub
also hoped that other and minor end
of the Post Office system will b
secured, matters having been left il
such good working order by the lat
head that they will run themselves 70
a time.
This, however, is of minor cor
sequence-to Aliiolani Hale-wha

Hongkong is at least resorted to in
cases.
In regard to your second question
as to the expediency of decapitating a
rooster, etc, for the oath here, we
are somewhat in doubt Perjury is
quite common on the Islands, and it
might be considered an act of gross
Partially to require the Chinese to ties
tify to the truth. We may also state
that roosters are becoming very scarce
owing to dark nights and sulphur
matches. Suppose A. loses few
roosters some night and has pake
arrested for appropriation, is it not
rather rough that he should have to
kill another one to get justice. And
even then the testimony might clear
the accused. If a witness will tell a
falsehood for dollar or less he might
tell the truth for Two dollars or more.

The success which crowns the efforts
of our neighbor, the Lnso Ha7Oaiiano,
is shown by facts in every number, as
each one seems to be an improvement
on the preceding one. The last one
came out ON six columns instead Of
five, on account of abundance of mat
ter, and when newspaper gives its
subscribers more than they are enti-
tied to, it is pretty good criterion
of prosperity. Each new number also
brings out some substantial new adver-
tisement, which proves that the patrons
of the paper, who take the trouble OF
advertising zyeN, are we'll satisfied with
the results. No. IS which was issu-
ed yesterday morning, gives some very
good articles, although the editor has
to apologize for the direct correspond
ences from Portugal and Azores hav-
ing gone down in the unfortunate
Oregon" We notice specially an arti-
Gle inviting the Portuguese to keep their
savings in this country, instead of send
ing them away, SO as to be enabled
to become important factors in our

scheme for settlement in Hawaii, which
ought to be translated into English.
