The Waters OF the sChuylkill.

The chemical reactions daily taking
place in the laboratory of nature are
immensely interesting, both from their
magnitude and their direct influence
upon human affairs. The waters of the
Schuylkill undergo number of chemi-

are so impregnSted with sulphuric acid
from the drainage of the mines as to be
unfit for use in boilers, and have but
few fish living in them. At Reading,
however, the acid is neutralized by be-
ing brought into contact with lime
water flowing in from Tulpohocken
creek, and the resulting insoluble sui
plate of lime is precipitated, forming a
bed of gypsum.

To what desperate straits the INDIE
pendent Opposition is driven when it re-
sorts to the futile and absurd trick of
threatening foreign Intervention should
native Hawaiians, enrolled as soldiers,
exercise their right of voting the National
ticket at the coming election. The arti-
Gle to which we refer appeared in last
evenings Bulletin" headed GA Das-
tardly Attempt" We would not have
noticed this fanfaronade of nonsense
were it not that it processes to have been
written under official inspiration. In
other words, it is intimated that the
diplomatic representatives of the United
States, England and France had in
formed the writer "that the present
trend of the Hawaiian Government is
not wholly escaping the official cogni-
zance of the great Powers named" and
that unless the Opposition candidates
are elected for Honolulu the Powers
would withdraw their recognition and
the independence of the Kingdom be
wrecked. Now, we don't believe a word
of it; and we think our contemporary
owes an apology to Minister Merrill and
the Commissioners of France and Eng
land for dragging them into our local
politics. These gentlemen are far too
experienced to NEEDLE with matters
which do not concern them.

Mr.. j. o. Carter is out in letter to
the Bulletin" explaining his former
letter and charging us with unfair treat
ment. We deny that we treated him at
all unfairly. On the contrary, we had
"a mind the advice of the immortal
Izaak Walton to anglers, to handle their
fly tenderly as If they loved it. We
really and truly dealt tenderly with Mr..
Carter, and refrsined from saying or sug-
costing anything that might offend him
or hurt the most sensitive feelings. But
this gentleman being so entirely and
egregiously wrong, should admit the fact
manfully and make no wry faces about
it. How were we to know that he meant
6 per cents when he wrote per cents,
more especially as the correction to
which he alludes was no correction at all.
But the point of the per cent bonds
was dealt with by us upon its own merits,
and it really had nothing to do with Mr..
Carter's argument, which was that the
Government was not to be trusted to pay
their bonds at maturity, because it had
illegally continued considerable sum OF
8 per cents, when it might have sold
other bonds-it does not matter whether
z or per cents-to redeem them.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1886-01-16

Furthermore, Mr.. Carter fails to per-
ceive that his own statement of the case
is the strongest proof of the sound credit
of the Government. If he is correct, the
James Robinson estate has no security
for its loan of 10000 except the good
faith of the Government; but the
lawyers, who doubtless were consulted
in this transaction by the Trustees, did
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1886-01-16

We demonstrated that the continuance
was by consent of the holder of the
bonds, and that the transaction was
made by virtue of provision of the Act
under which they were issued, which
states that the bonds are payable at the
date expressed on their face or at a
period not exceeding twenty years from
date of issuance We said that
we would not discuss the legal
point involved in the continuance,
nor shall we do 50 beyond the remark
that it appears to as to depend entirely
upon the lender and borrower whether
such bonds shall be continued within the
twenty-year limit o. not. Both parties
being agreed, the law appears to author
ize continuance OF short dated bonds
In no case, however, does the transac-
ton warrant the injurious conclusion
which Mr.. Carter drew from it, and it
was to this we mainly objected

He says: 81 have not in my possession
a single tax receipt of the Queens Own
or any other company of volunteer
soldiers, these receipts having been
placed, at the time of their issue, in the
hands authorized to distribute them.
The story about two volunteer soldiers
having applied to me for their tax re-
csipts, and that i said they would be
given to them the day before election, is
also not true" Mr.. Hayselden might
have spared himself the trouble of a de-
NAL, because nobody believes the stories
printed in the Opposition press regard
ing the Government or the National
candidates. Their columns are at the
disposal of the mendacious coterie who
have for so long tyrannized over this COM
munity, but whose reign, happily for
truth and righteousness, is now ended.

And so it has come to pass that
the Carter w aterhouse combination in
suits and belittles the Squires-M Marques
company. The tramp" organ tells the
latter that they cannot muster corpor-
als guard OF Opposition voters between
them, and therefore that they had very
much better retire from the political
arena altogether, and humbly ask for
giveness from the great men born to rule
or ruin the Hawaiian Kingdom. To an
impartial spectator this demand, with
its impertinent assumption of SUPERIOR
ty, is about as cool piece of business as
could be imagined. Who and what are
Messrs Carter and Waterhouse that
they are to be preferred to Messrs.
Squires and Marques? What principle
or policy do they represent which their
competitors for the Opposition vote do
not? Are they closer to the hearts of
the people, or what? OF course this
quarrel does not concern us, because the
National ticket will be elected by an
overwhelming majority, but We object to
the introduction in this campaign of the
idea that self-constituted leaders may
dictate to the voters and candidates what
they should or should not do.

the incident that has already deprived
the National candidates for Honolulu of

els there danger ahead?" CORE
spondent asks in to- days ADVERTISE, as
he points to the pregnant fact that Homo
lulu shippers and importers, exclusively
of the Independent Opposition persua-
sion, are discriminating in their business
against American vessels. Yet these very
men are taking advantage of the partial
ity of the United States Congress and
American people in the matter of the
tariff to sell their sugar at the highest
possible price without paying duty. If
the facts stated by Friend of the
Treaty" in to-day's paper be reported to
Congress, or becomes public in the Amer
lean press, "good bye" to the Treaty.
This suicidal policy is part of the fight
against the Spreckels' interest. It may
end in burning their own fingers very Sc
verely, but it would also hurt innocent
people who have no share in this
movement and who do not sympathize
with it. If the punishment would
only be confined to the offenders one
could view it complacently, but when it
must fall upon all alike we enter de-
cided protest. Not that we imagine for a
moment anything we may say on the
subject will have the slightest effect upon
the result. The planters who are sub
scribipg money literally to elect the OPP
position candidates, and who are buying
(or permitting to be bought) tax receipts
with view to controlling the election,
may soon have reason to regret their con-
duct. But their repentance may come
when it is too late.
Mr.. Fred III. Hayselden is ON the Ma
tional ticket, and is therefore a target
for Opposition archers. But inasmuch
as there is nothing to be alleged against
him truthfully, the "party of moral
ideas" does not scruple to invent charges
of political and moral wrong doing to
prejudice him with the voters. Among
the clean-cut lies which these professors
of cant and hypocrisy have invented re-
garding him, is tina: he has possession Of
the tax receipts of the Queens Own, and
that he refused to surrender the receipts
of two of this corps when asked fol
them. This statement having been pub
ished in the tramp" organ, together
with great deal of goody-goody twad-
die, to give kind of pious edge to it,
Mr.. Hayselden requests us to deny it in
toto.

The Opposition is nightly bothered
about gin, to Judge from the tone and re-
marks OF the tramp" organs. This is
natural enough, seeing that one of their
best men is engaged in the importation
and sale of gin; and as he is candidate
for one of the country districts of Oahu,
it may have been bottles from his store
that the informant of local contempt
rary stated lined the road to his political
headquarters. There is nothing wrong
in the sale of gin, or in drinking it for
that matter in moderation, but when
lei-bedecked ''frightful example, of the
superior influence of gin on the OPposi
ton understanding, takes the stump to
advocate the election of Mr.. J. o. Carter,
as recently happened at the Honolulu
Foundry, "there must be something rot
ten in the State of Hawaii, to quote that
gentleman's own sententious utterance
in the Bulletin" The Lehua coinci-
dence may be passed without comment,
its suggestions having go greatly exas-
perated the Opposition gin party; but it
is surely too great stretch of magma
ton to charge the National candidates
with periling the lives of their own voters
by filling them with this obnoxious bev-

not advise such loose operation as Mr..
Carter would have the public believe.

Before concluding our remarks on this
point, however, we have to correct an in
accuracy as to dates in our own article.
The continued bonds were issued under
the 9 per cent Act of 1872 and not under
the per cent Act Of 1876, as stated by
us. Both Acts, however, had similar
provision regarding the twenty-year
limit.

According to the tramp organs it is
a good joke to rob the mail to get possess
sion of the correspondence of Govern
ment supporters, and it is also "bull-
dosing" on the part of the writer and the
gentleman to whom a stolen letter is adj
dressed, to make demand for it from
the Opposition newspaper which pub
lished it. This is a fair sample of sancti-
fisd Opposition ethics. "The end justifies
the means" By parity of reasoning it
would not be an offense against morals
to use money stolen from the Post Office
safe to supplement the 10000 corrup-
ton fund put up" by the Opposition
to buy tax receipts and otherwise "infu-
ence the election" We don't suppose
for a moment that such thing hap
pened, but there is no difference in the
eye of the law or in morals between rob
bing post Office safe and robbing post
Office letter bag. Both are felonies.
Yet the tramp organs treat the steal
ing of letter from the mail as little
Opposition joker, while they profess to
be in full cry after the scalps of the safe
robbers.

Mr.. Henry NaterhOuSe is keeping
very quiet. For man of his active
temperament this is a wonder, and his
friends are beginning to think that he is
playing practical joke. They cannot
imagine him allying himself with the

who are on the Independent Opposition
ticket But there is no telling what may
happen to a man in Honolulu at election
times. Adversely makes one acquainted

house being ambitious to serve his
country in the Legislature, and no one
ever dreaming of him as possible candi-

one would not expect from so old a
stager. He is now in the field soliciting
votes and has very active agents canvass
ing for him. But the fun of the thing is
that no one knows exactly where to place
him. At one time he is on the Opposi-
ton ticket, at another he is entirely in
dependent, again ne is a Government
supporter, and lastly he is making a
political fight in the interest of the
Waterhouse family. Just what national
purpose is to be served by having the
interests of the Warehouse family rep
scented in the Legislature it would take a
writ of discovery to find out. By way Of
enlightening the public and informing
voters, therefore, he should be more ex-
plicit. Mr.. Henry Warehouse is still tc
