SILKS.

An enormous amount OF money was to be
invested In this new department, AMI after
much deliberatlon man was finally selected
as buyer from the noted silk khouse-Messrs.
b. Altman & Co., Of New York. Knowing
II to be the custom for ladies desiring choice
Silks to send to the New York houses, we
concluded to keep only the best Silks. Our
buyer, having had twenty years. experience
with the leading New York houses, has
proved equal to the emergency. The as
sortmeLt we carry vies with any house in
the country. You will be pleased to admit
this should you favor the Palais Royal with
call during the Special Sale.

RIGHT AND REASONABLE.

AS it had been announced in the
public press, at the instance OF the
promoters, that there would be a
fair in the Palace grounds last
Saturday evening, open TO the pub
lie on payment of specified fee, 1t
was only right and reasonable that
the public should have been notified
of the unavoidable abandonment of
the intention ut the last moment, by
Il notice to- that effect posted at the
gate. Then the multitudes of peo-
pie who went there in response to
the public invitation, for the purpose
of aiding good cause, would have
understood the matter, and have
gone away in a measure satisfied.
As it was, they considered them
selves badly ''.old," and knew not
the reason why. A little thought
fulness would have saved the
blundering and its disagreeable con-
sequences.

ers, Hawaiians, Portuguese and
Cinnamon. The last named knows
more about driving pig than
horse. With few exceptions, the
Portuguese are novices at handling
the lines. The Hawaiians generally
know how to drive, and are univer-
sally civil; hence, they are well
patronized. The Americans and
Britishers are usually the most ex-
tortionate. The most incapable
drivers are the Cinnamon. They
are numerous, but scarcely quarter
dozen could be found among the
whole capable of handling reins.
Nine-tenths of them know as much
about driving horse and carriage
as monkey knows about running a
sewing machine, and should never
have been licensed. There is room
for the exercise of more care in re-
gard to character and capability,
than hitherto, in granting licences to
all classes of applicants.

According to the foregoing eX-
tract from the statutes, statements
of revenue and expenditure were
due on the 30th September, 30th
June and 3lst March of the present
year, to the taxpayers who are
summoned "by authority" to foot
up their taxes on or before the 10th
of the present month. If such
statements have been published, the
Minister should append to the Tax
Collectors notice the information
when and in what paper, they have
appeared. That there are two sides
to the question of tax-paying, is a
fact that is beginning to force itself
upon public attention. If the law can,
OH the strength of ''our bold majo-
rity," be ignored on the part of the
Minister of Finance, by what sys-
TEN of Jurisprudence or on what plea
can it be enforced against those who
provide the money, which it seems
may or may not be accounted for as
it happens to suit the convenience
or caprice of the Kings Ministers
Until such statements are published,
the taxpayers are really giving
away not only their money but what
ought to be more sacredly guarded
by them, their constitutional rights.
by paying any attention whatever to
the mandate of the Tax Collector.

the PORTUGUESE BAND.

Complaints continue to reach us
concerning the Portuguese brass
band practice, from the neighbor-
hood surrounding the scene of racket.
No doubt, most people who have
any soul desire the success of this
new organization. Nobody is afraid
of the town becoming overstocked
with music and musicians, and every
body is pleased that our National
band, which was the first in origin
and is bound always to be the first
in quality, as long as the inimitable
Berger leads it, has within few
years been supplemented by the
Reformatory School band, the st.
Louis School band, and now the
Portuguese band; hut nobody, eX-
cept a miserable depraved soul who
gloats over horrifying sounds for
very wantonness, is pleased to be
near the discordant belches of the
raw recruits of any band. 1t is said
that the entire community of the
populous neighborhood where the
new band practises wishes most
fervently for its success, but wishes
with redoubled fervor that it would
go to the top of Punchbowl or some
other distant region, for practice.
Deeply do we sympathlse with those
unfortunate people. We know of
no lot ON earth so dreadful as that
of poor creature doomed to live
next door to the Bedlam blast of n
dozen brass instruments and the
thunder of bass drum, operated
by as many ambitious beginners.
The other evening, a gentleman re-
siding in the vicinity of Punchbowl
street, below the Queens Hospital,
approached q member of our staff,
and with a peculiar glare in his eye
and an agitated voice, exclaimed, so,
for the love of heaven, try your
utmost to deliver us from that terri
BILE band, before it drives us all to
the Insane Asylum!"

PARDOHS.

1t was intimated as an "open
secret" about three weeks ago that
list of forty-nine pardons had been
carried through the Privy Council,
and that it was owing to the deter
mined and strenuous resistance
offered by certain influential MEM
bers of that body that the list was
not twice as long. Who those dis
charged Jail birds are is question
that is often asked, but as yet, the
transaction is shrouded in mystery,
except in so far us the people have
been able to ferret out the facts at
the street corners persons are arrested
publicly or otherwise, and the trial,
as also the pronouncing of sentence,
takes place in open court: then why
should the cancelling of such sem
tencc not be matter in which the
people are entitled to be taken into
the confidence of the executive! 1t
is really of considerable interest to
the people to know who are let
loose upon them from within the
prison walls. DO the pardons in
clude burglars, sneak-thieves, OF
riotous persons! If so, the least
the executive could have done
would be to publish a special "By
Authority" notice to warn house
holders to look well to the fastenings
of their doors as well rs to their
means Of defence. Taxes are in
process of collection at the present
time, in return for which the citi-
zen is entitled, without being under
any ynbligation whatever. therefor, to
protection from robbers, thieves
and roughs. And when the Royal
clemency is exercised on behalf OF
these fancy characters, the least that
might have been done for tie pub
lie would be 10 let it hc known who
the pardoncd offenders are. piece
of civllity to which they have invari,
ably been treated on all occasions ol
similar nature. The way, however
in which ''our bold majority goes"
nowadays, seems to have suggested to
the executive that any concessions
henceforth to the rights or privileges
of the taxpayers are superfiuous.

ABOUT HACKS AND KACKMEN.

In the matter of public convey
ances there has been wonderful
change during the past six years.
In 1880 the vehicle that obtained the
name OF "express" was of an and
antiquated character. 1t was diff
ficult matter to get ones self inside
of it. it was uncomfortable to ride
in. and it was awkward to turn
round, frequently capsizing when in
the hands of an inexperienced driver.
In fact, it was q vehicle unfit for the
present age, and it has gradually
become q thing of the past.
The ''express" or "hack" of to-
day is a carriage of very different
nature. 1t is comfortable to ride
in, easy to the passengers for entrance
or exit, affords protection from the
rays of the sun, and is secure against
rain. 1t is mostly drawn by horse,
instead of the half-sized, stunted,
ill-shapen, and hungry looking
quadruped that propelled the hack
of 1880. The change is appreciated
by foreigner and Hawaiian, and the
"Society for cruelty to animals" has
less reason to complain.
To whom is this change due?
wholly and solely to the enterprise
of few foreign hackmen who led
the way. The drivers of 1880 were
a scrubby and mixed a lot with few
exceptions) as the four legged
animals they drove. The exceptions
alluded to are to be seen ON the
streets to-day, driving fine horses
and well equipped carriages. The
United Carriage Co. have the
pioneer haole driver. The Fashion
Stables can boast of an old hand at
the business. These men, ,and few
others, have stuck to their calling
like a shoemaker to his last. But
how many have come and gone dur
ing the past 8 years!
A large portion of the San Fran
cisco hoodlum element soon found
it's way to the Islands. New faces
were to be seen holding the reins,
and extortion became the order of the
day. The hack regulations promul-
gated by Ministers Wilder and
Gulick were disregarded by this
hoodlum crowd. They dressed well,
wore tlashy chain with somebody
else's watch attached, and despised
the idea of taking ten cents under
any circumstances. Two-bits, as q
quarter is termed, was the least sum
they cared to handle. They never
had any change, and would take a
dollar when Is cents was the fare,
with the greatest complacency
imaginable. In short, they were a
bad lot, as n rule. Some have found
home on the reef, while others
have returned from whence they
came. The tares have been, or are
being, separated from the wheat,
and the class of men known as
hack-drivers is gradually improving.
The root of the evil is in the
indiscriminate granting of licences to
drive, to incompetent persons. The
drivers comprise Americans, British
