trations. If we did SO just now We might
miss the point of the present fight, and
there is not a man of influence among
the Opposition who would have as many
rags of character left as would serve
to make happer to beat flies off a
sugar bag. We shall ventilate their mis-
doings at our own time and in our own
way.
Let the Opposition take note OF the
growing scarcity of silver. Kalakaua
dollars will be at premium over gold at
no distant date When our Opposition
friends have a demand for gold they pay,
if possible, in certificates, which in law
are the equivalent of gold; when they
have a call for certificates they pay in
silver, which they say is not an
equivalent of gold but is of certifi-
Gates. Yet the Opposition candi-
dates rail against the Government for
not exacting gold payments and making
disbursements in gold. 1t will not be
many months before their tune changes

Mr.. j. 0. Carter has again committed
himself to false and unfair statement
through relying upon information re-
| ceived from others. In the "Pae Alma"
yesterday, Mr. Carter published com
munication charging Mr.. Hayselden with
| improper interference with the election,
| refusing to give up the voting papers to
| old men whose names are on the voting
list, said receipts being in Mr.. Haysel-
| denis possession. Being challenged by
Mr.. Hayselden with this injurious mis-
statement, Mr. Carter said that Mr..
| Henry Warehouse was his authority for
| it, and that upon the information re-
! ceived from him he wrote the letter in
| question. Being, however, DESTROYS OF
doing what was fair, he promised to
write a correction for the ''Pae Alma. "
| Whether it will appear in that ibellous
sheet is another question. To save him
self in measure from the injury which
this false statement was calculated to in
flict upon him in his canvass, Mr.. Hay
selden published statement of fact in
last evenings 'Elele" We refer to the
incident to show to what methods even
the most trustworthy men on the Oppo-
sition ticket will resort to make point
against National candidate.

A Detective M for Assault.

On the night of the late raid on the Chi
nese Secret Society, Beretania street.
Special Officer Good, who first got into the
building, drew his pistol and used his club.
This he stated in his evidence at the trial.
One of the defendants, Ay Yong, an old
man, was struck on the head and at the
trial he appeared in Court with a bandage
around it. He claim that Good struck
him and has had him arrested for assault
and battery. Good will have to answer to
the charge i'll the Police Court this morn

Nevertheless we are surprised that a
gentleman in "hOly orders" should OBJ
iect to lotteries. He must have forgotten
the pious devices for whipping the
devil round the stump" adopted at
church fairs; the Church lotteries"
''grab bags, "post offices, and the mani
fold little games of chance and deception
whereby the 80 per cent dollar is trans
ferred to the treasury of the church. If
these things are permissible for the sup
port of religious institution why should
they be contraband for the support of the
State? But perhaps the church wants
monopoly of the lottery business.
Let it be understood that we do not
approve of lotteries or games of chance
of any kind and that we are as decided
" opposed to them as the Rev. S. +.
Bishop, no matter what the object may
be- Like that gentleman, we also ''tOok
crack at that lottery business" and
"got left" We discovered by sad expe-
rience that there was nothing in it for a
Law brother; but for one in the line of
Apostolic succession the. lottery is
everything. How can the Rev. S. +.
Bishop go back upon the ''lottery busi
ness" when it is recorded that the first
vacancy in the Apostolic brotherhood
was filled by casting lots? 1t may be
very demoralizing, as the Rev. Serene
E. Bishop writes, but it at least has the

we really did expect better things
from the Rev. S. E. Bishop than to find
him lending his name to the campaign
lies which Mr.. L. A. Thurston and his
political partners put forward to influence
votes. There may be some excuse for
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1886-01-21


political attorney resorting to such
methods, seeing that he belongs to the
Devils Own as King George the
Third, "by the Grace of God" denom-
mated the company of volunteer lawyers
from the Inns of Court, title it still
proudly bears. A clergyman, even out OF
active service, stands on quite different
footing. Whatever else he may do he
should not train with the Devils Own"
Rev. S. E. Bishop has personal
grievance against the Government. 1t
is very odd, but nearly everybody who
denounces the Administration is in a
similar position. 1t was the painful duty
of Ministers to make changes in various
directions to secure the efficiency of the
public service hence the outcry against
them in certain quarters. But Mr..
Bishop in truth has no such complaint
to make. He dismissed himself; and the
Minister of the Interior permitted his
name to remain on the pay roll several
months after his written resignation-en-
tirely voluntary on his part-had been
recorded and formally accepted.
Rev. S. +. Bishop says: 'The writer
happened to be one TO strike as hard as
he knew how at the last Lottery bill,
at the trihing cost of a fairly desirable
Government appointment" Now we
are informed and believe, that this gen
tleman writes at least under total
misapprehension OF fact. His memory
is entirely at fault. He was not inter
fered with, or demonstrated with, or in
any shape or way led to believe that his
conduct was at all displeasing to the
| Government, although his own sense OF
propriety should have suggested the un-
seemliness of a Government officer, III
the service of the public, taking an
active part in politics, we care not on
which side his sympathies lay. Such
conduct would not be tolerated in any
country in the world with regularly
constituted Government except In this
Kingdom of Hawaii, and in the interest
of the public service it should never be
| tolerated again.
1t seems as if this thought suggested
itself to Mr.. Bishop, and that to re-
mind the Minister of his duty in the
premises he forwarded his resignation
which the quickened conscience O
official responsibility accepted in terms
| appropriate to the tenor of the letter il
which the resignation of "a fairly de
sirable Government appointment" was
conveyed. This is the sum total of the
Rev. S. E. Bishops grievance. To show
I that the Government bore no grudg'
| against him it is simply necessary t.
state that the date of resignation ant
acceptance respectively was August 5tl
| and 9th, 1884, and the date when Mr.
Bishops name finally disappeared iron
the payroll of the Survey Department
was January 81, 1885. This does no
look very much as if Mr.. Bishop has
any grievance on the score of dismissal
If the Minister of the Interior and Rev
S. E. Bishop had changed places, w
make little doubt the record would have
been different. The point of the stor.
is that Mr.. Bishop cannot get place Oh
the Hawaiian roll of martyrs. The deaC
Lottery bill will not serve his purpose.

Bishop A. w. Wilson, of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, South, preached yester-
day morning at Trinity Church, Madison
avenue and Preston street, Rev. w. II. D.
Harper, pastor. His sermon was on the
growth of the church, and he spoke with
more vigor and energy of delivery than he
has exhibited since his rather severe indis-
position of some months ago. Bishop Will
son will preach in Alexandria next Sun
day. and about the last of that week he ex-
poets to start for Colorado, where he will
preside at a conference. From there he
will 20 to California, and the latter part of
August he will sail for Japan, where he
will organize the missions of his church.
In China, which he will next visit, his
church has fourishing missions, with a uni
versity, in which a number of Chinese are
being educated. He has authority to form
conference if the circumstances are auspi-
cious. He will probably return home by
way of Palestine and Egypt. Bishop Gran
berry, of the same church, has gone to Bra
I'll to supervise the work there.-Baltimore

A city Within ours.

So intent are we upon the things OF life,
so much engrossed with living beings and
living issues. that were our attention not
attracted by occasions similar to the recent
Memorial Celebration or the passing OF
some friend from life unto death, it might
be that we would lose sight altogether OF
the silent city of Thornrose that lies just
within our boundaries. The old gentleman
who dug the second grave in this beautiful
Getty of the dead" although now an old
man of eighty-four, is still its chief archi-
tect The younger keeper in speaking OF
him said, "Mr. Mcnamara can dig grave
now quicker than can" During the thir-
ty-four years about 800 citizens and $500
soldiers have been buried in Thornrose
Cemetery, making total of about 10000
So we see, although large proportion OF
these we're brought here for interment,
number equaling or surprising the present
population of Staunton have been buried In
its cemetery in the last thirty-four years.
This is not due to an unhealthy locality, for
Staunton is an exceptionally healthy place,
but the large appearance of the figures, if
they appear large to any one, we think due
mainly to the universal unwillingness to re-
alize the rapidity With which we are rush
ing to the grave.-Sa,mtOa indicator.

We are indebted to Capt. J. A. Judson,
Manager, of the Bull Run Panorama Co.,
corner 10Th st., and Ohio Avenue, Wash
ington City, for descriptive pamphlet OF
the grand panorama Of the 2nd battle OF
Manassas, and also for a PhOtogravure of
General R. E. Lee and staff. This piano.
rama is one of the most interesting objects
to the sight-seer visiting Washington. 1t
is hard to realize when viewing it that you
are not overlooking the actual battle. 1t
is a most wonderful achievement of art-an
incompatible illusion. In fact the old SOL
der looking upon it may see things as they
we're, and recognize them, and yet see more
than when in the conflict, for the panorama
presents a view Of the whole, extending Tor
many miles. 1t is easy to recognize some
of the conspicuous figures. The regular
prices of admission are 50 cents children
under twelve years, % cents; but special
excursion rates are given as follows; Ad-
mission, IS cents; children under twelve
years, Is cents; the manager of an excur-
sion 20 communicate with Capt. Judson
some days in advance. A copy Of the beau
tiful picture of Lee and his staff will be sent
to any one on application to Capt. JudSon,
provided the applicant will agree to frame
and hang it in a conspicuous position in
his place of business.

bonfire of all crucifxes and saints, the chal-
ices to be used as drinking cups at public
wine fountains, and the churches turned
into concert halls and theatres. or, if they
amt fit for this purpose, We might make use
of them as corn-magazines and livery sta

not been inaugurated long ago"
