IT was with surprise that most people
learned a few days ago that tickets for the
Louisiana lottery had recently been sold
here This lottery has been denounced
in strong enough terms. by the Press OF
the United States, and the Federal Gov
ernment has shown what an opinion II has
of the scheme by forbidding It's business
to be transacted through the mails. A
lottery, even when properly conducted,
and honestly drawn is bad enough, but
from all we can read and hear the Louis
lana lottery has not even this recommenda
ton. A San Francisco paper, a short time
ago, had the following paragraph:
This blot upon thc good name Of New Orleans is
declared by residents of that city and by the local
press 60 be an unmitlgated cheat, not paying the
premiums 20 announces, not drawing fairly, but Is
demOtaiiziug the city and the State by robbing Its
poor moving the people from industry TO illusion
that It's private promoters may be enriched.
And denmciations of similar charac
ter can be found scattered through hun
dreds of papers.
There Is nothing more pernicious than
d lottery. 1t seems to be so small sum
TO risk, oaly dollar, or as in this country
where the sale OF tickets has to be sub rosa
only dollar and half for a chance at a
fortune Of S15O,OOO. The bait is so tempt
ing that it is swallowed greedily. A dol
lar goes, and then another and another
and with every succeeding expenditure
the hope Of winning something increases
and 50 the poor victim goes on. Again
this temptation comes to those who can
least afford to throw their money away
1t Is the poor and needy who are most apt
to take the risks To spring from poverty
to comparative afliuence at a bound, is of
course, a delightful thing to contemplate
Only those who have felt the hard grip OF
poverty can understand how strong the
temptation is, or what golden dreams are
before the eyes of those who once begin
to indulge in lottery speculations as a pur-
suit
Ii is evident, from the fact that dollar
tickets have been sold here for dollar
and half, the agent clearing about tJtty-si.I
and ha!f per aad on the price he pays fol
the tickets. that there are some among lis
who have been bit by the pernicious fever
ii must be also evident what a fraud upon
the public the whole affair must be. when
the person who manipulates the tickets
third hand can make such an enormous
percentage of profit. The public should
take warning and have nothing to do with
lottery tickets

who have their families to provide for and
who have nothing but what they own in
Hawaii, to look to, cannot afford to play
the game of iaisses .fdirc cannot afford the
price of rope which the present Ministry
require, before they will effectually hang
themselves, and very large number of
our people along with them.

say give them rope" Many look to the
coming Legislature as the spot where the

however, that the Ministry will try to
avoid the evil day, and though the unman-
ageable majority may twist up good deal
Of hemp, that The coup de grace may be reserv-

But whether we are going to have re

get it without showing that there is a rea-
son for it. There was once grace
ful little tale, entitled Ten times one
are ten" The object was to show how
one man ought to be able to influence ten
more for some good purpose, then that
each OF the ten should in their turn infu
ence like number and so on. Our
reformers in Hawaii have only to keep
some such idea in their heads. and they
viii carry the day in spite of stuffed bal
lot boxes, corruption funds and all Per-
sistence will win in the end.

TIM inconsequence Of some Of the argu
ments put forward by those who write for
the Government Is really laughable We
have had a long screed, repeated again and
again about discrimination against Ameri-
can shipping, yet the Government organ
comes forward on Saturday and talks
about making this free port To do this
would make a very thorough "discrimina
ton against American shipping.
Another pretty piece of inconsequence,
is the complete back summersault act rel
atiye to Immigration According to the
organ" the hope Of the country lies in
immigration from the British Isles and
Northern Europe. The statement is quoted
that Queensland is a white mans coun-
try" and then the argument follows that
this country is better for the white man
than Queensland The natural deduction
is that the Government organ secretly
wishes 10 make white mans country Of
this What about the poor native2 Is he

--Tm treaty news, though not favorable,
needPOt make It's despond Though the
Hawaiian Government have sanctioned a
policy and have melted public utterance
which has been used against us, yet we
have SO many facts to bring forward in
our favor, SO many reasons which initiate
against its abrogation. that our planters.
who have so much at stake, need not be
down hearted. The s. T. ChroHicle as usual
has some wild statements. which are
thoroughly inconseguent, rs the treaty
utterances OF that journal usually are. but
such utterances carry their own condem-
nation on their face and therefore we
need not be troubled by them. We have
good and strong advocates at Washington,
men who are using argument. not money,
and we believe that their arguments viii
have due influence.
The San Francisco merchants know how
valuable the treaty is TO them, the farmers
Of Oregon and California know well that
Hawaii helps them in keeping up the prices
for their produce, and the United States
know. that to abrogate the treaty would be
first, 70 ruin their citizens resident here,
and next to leave the Islands as a prey to
some colonizing power.
The Hawaiian Islands are to California
what the faniculum was TO Rome We all
know the cry of the old Consul in Macau-
laws immortal ballad:
"For since Jauiculum is lost
Naught else can save the town.
Forewarded is forearmed, and the
United States Government do not intend
to give their Janiculum to California away
as a free gift. Even the Chronicle points
out that in the event of any other power
seizing these Islands, they would have to
be fought for The Reciprocity Treaty is

IT is by no means the first time that we
have heard OF what is going to De done in
the future The Government organ prom
ises, in its issue of last Saturday, va
riety Of very needful and necessary things.
With the large majority that the Ministry
now have at their command, we are told
''the waste places are to be occupied by a
law abiding people. Internal communm
cation is to be improved. The water sup
ply is to be utilized after scientific inves-
tigation and research Honolulu is to be
made free port, etc, etc, etc. In short
the political millennium Is evidently at
hand
Now, no doubt much Of this is very de
sirable and what we actually need for the
good OF the country. But We cast our
minds back to speech in the Legislature
when the present Minister Of Foreign At
fairs outlined the policy of this Govern
ment, one bright morning in May, four
years ago With the exception of a Free
Port, we were promised to have ali these
things, and still we are once more being
fed on promises. There has been noneed
why these things should still remain prom
/, ises. The present Ministry have had the
handling of far more money than any pre-
vious Government, but they have signally
failed in making any great improvement.
Our roads are still disgrace to the coun
try. Hawaii is ever complaining of what
has not been done for her The Pail Road
which would have been built and finished
had Mr.. Wilder remained in Office, still
remains a project in the air. We have
had considerable scientific talent de
voted to the water question and the lack
Of supply in Honolulu, but beyond what
Mr. Wilder did when he was in office no
thing has been done The fact is if the
money which has been spent by this Min
istry on expeditions round the world, on
trips TO the South Seas, on prosecuting
exploded legal claims in Washington and
IN fuss and feathers generally, had been
devoted to public works, and something
tangible had been accomplished, people
might believe the promises of the Gov
ernment organ, but they cannot credit
Them now Seeing is believing, and when
see we will believe.

IT is quite noticeable how many Of our
citizens are investing IN estates in South

IT Is evident that the Government organ
is hard up for anything to print as a
means of defence for its friends The
latest exhibition it has made in this line
Is an attempt to show that the Govern
ment has been endorsed by the Hilo
planters. In support OF this claim the
resolutions of the Hilo Planters Society,
which were printed in the GAZETTE, are
republished. and then scrap from the
letter of correspondent to the Daily Press
is given. What the Hilo planters said in
September of 1886, was the following;
lst.-That the planters of Hilo District do here,

Board of Immigration in the matter of japanese
