There is money, big money for any large
capitalist who invests in the Hilo district.
We hear that another scheme is now
afioat to get syndicate" to take up
and develop the coffee lands of Kona
and to try and raise tobacco there. No
doubt there is money to be made IN kona
out of coffee, and we sincerely hope that
tobacco may prove a golconda to those
who 60 in and plant it. But that John
Bulls capital will be obtained to carry
out the scheme we very much doubt.
To get hold of ]. BIS money we have to
hold out the prospect of very high
dividend, safe investments he can make
in his own colonies, where he knows all
about the laws and can keep tight grip
on his money.
Meantime there are people here who
are putting up coin for agents abroad to
try and get hold of J. B. Were they to
spend the cash, now put forth in the
form of sprats to catch whales, in devel-
oping their own lands for themselves,
they would find themselves a good better
off on a much tirmer basis.

WE publish in to-day's issue COM
munication from an old and highly
esteemed resident of Kauai, protesting
against the form of our endorsement of
the present Road Boards, which seems
to him to involve an unfair disparage-
ment of the work of their prede-
cessors. We are very sorry if anything
has appeared in our editorial columns
which has seemed to reflect unfavorably
upon the services of gentlemen so well
known for their integrity and public
spirit as Messrs. Knudsen, McBryde,
Hardy, and the others named. The
article in question was based upon the
writer's personal observation of the re-
cent road work, particularly on the
windward islands. We think Mr. Knud-
sen will admit that our structures upon
former road officials, as class, has
ample justification, in at least a large
proportion of cases; the management of
the whole business, in many districts,
showing a marked lack of both intelli-
gence and honesty. 1t has been well
understood and generally admitted for
many years, that taking all departments
of the administration into account, the
island of Kauai has been one of the best,
if not the very best governed portion of
the Kingdom. No one is more ready to
acknowledge this fact than ourselves.
Remarks of a general character, reflect
ing upon any specified class of public
officials, should not be construed as ex-
Guiding, either directly or by inference,
the minority of honorable exceptions.

A GOOD deal of money, in sums of five
dollars and upwards, changed hands
yesterday in Honolulu, in the settle
ment of bets upon the presidential cleo
ton. The hat stores also did lively
business, the wager of "tile" having
been favorite method with many peo-
pie of testifying to confidence in their
respective candidates. We understand
that one too enthusiastic Cleveland man
was called upon to furnish headgear for
nearly a score of rejoicing Republicans.
The event Of the day, however, in this
line, was the wheel-barrow act of Messrs.
Flohr and O'Sullivan, which came off
according to agreement, in the presence
of large and enthusiastic company of
friends and spectators.

The Presidents Proclamation DesIgnat-
ing Thursday, November 29tb.
Constant thanksgiving and gratitude
are due from the American people to
Almighty God for his goodness and
mercy, which have followed them since
the day he made them nation and
youchsafed to them free government.
With loving kindness he has constantly
led us in the way of prosperity and good
ness. He has not visited with swift
punishment our shortcomings, but with
gracious care has warned US of our de-
pendence upon his forbearance and has
taught us that obedience to his holy law
is the price of a continuance of his pre-
cious gifts. In acknowledgment of all
that God has done for us as nation, and
to the end that on that appointed day
tie united prayers and praise OF CRATE
ful country may reach the throne OF
grace, I, Grover Cleveland, President of
the United States, do hereby designate
and set apart Thursday, the 29th OF
November inst, as day of thanksgiving
and prayer, to be kept and observed
throughout the land. On that day let
all our people suspend their Ordin-
airy work and occupations and in
their accustomed places of worship
with prayer and songs of praise
render thanks to God for all his
mercies for the abundant harvests
which have rewarded the toll of the hus-
bandman during the year that has
passed and for the rich rewards that have
followed the labors of our people in their
shops and in their marts of trade and
traffic. Let us give thanks for peace and
for social order and contentment within
our borders and for our advancement
in all that adds to national greatness.
And mindful of the affective dispense
ton with which a portion of our land
has been visited, let us, while we hum
bic ourselves before the power of God,
acknowledge his mercy in setting the
bounds of the deadly march Of pesti-
Ience, and let our hearts be chas-
tened with sympathy with our fellow
countrymen who have suffered and
who mourn; and, as we return thanks
for all the blessings which we have re-
ceived from our Heavenly Father, let US
not forget that he has enjoined upon us
charity, and on this day of thanksgiving
let us generously remember the poor and
needy, so that our tribute of praise
and gratitude may be acceptable in the
sight of the Lord.

be affixed.

A Defense of Former Road Supervisors.
Mr.. EDITOR: In the GAZETTE OF
October 30th, noticed an article full OF
praise and rejoicingS ON account OF the
| fine way the new law on Road Boards
works. If you had rested in your salts
faction over or with the new order OF
| things | would have been willing to take
part in the universal joy without criti-
cising the minor points, but as you see
fit to throw dirt on the old order OF
things, viz, the road supervisors, shall
want to have a word to say.
Your article says: cit is an excellent
illustration, this road board business, of
the necessity and ACCESSIBILITY of decen-
tralization." The Government formerly
did appoint one man in each district to
work the roads and now the same Gov
eminent appoints three men. Where
does the decentralization come in? II
the Government took proper care to ap-
point honest and true men as road super
visors, it seems reasonable to suppose
that one man would understand and
fulfil his duties as we'll as the three men,
as in general we suppose a man to at
tend better to what is his business than
to what is merely an act of courtesy. OF
necessity the road board will be filled
mostly with planters whose time is pre-
cious, and Just when public roads need
most attention, the cane-fields need it as
much.
Did the road supervisors do their work
solely for the pay of three dollars per
day of actual attendance on the road
with the gang of men? speak from ex-
perience, having been road supervisor
from 1853 to 1882, when the excellent
Mr. Bush as Minister of Interior told me
"I had resigned" The island of Kauai
had good roads from one side of the pail
to the other. Hon. H. A. Widemann
and Archibald Archer were road super
visors when / landed on Kauai or soon
after. Later Mr.. w. 0. Smith, Mr.. Fife,
Judge McBryde, Hon. Mr.. Bertelmann,
Mrs.. Wilcox, Judge Hardy and ', Knud-
sen. Were these the men who favored
one spot of three or four miles? Were
these the men who took less interest in
the affairs of their districts, and did not
always spend the road money on the
road? Your own article furnishes proof
against the universal satisfaction"
You say: GA member of road board
spent the money entrusted to him to
curry favor? Moreover, the people to
whom he paid the money, did very lit
tie work" Why, that is just what you
say those road supervisors OF the old
system did, and, according to your reas-
oning, the road boards spend the money
entrusted to them to curry favor-one
and all of them. AS you have SO soon
discovered such a member of road
board, try if you cannot find some men
of the old sytem of different stamp,
men who did their duty for the love of
doing their duty.

II is interesting to see what estimate
some people have of financial John
Bull. Is there a speculative scheme
which needs money, John Bull must be
applied to and, magic word, syndicate
must be formed. But it appears as if
J. B. did not bite quite so easily as some
think he ought. He seems to be willing
to 60 into schemes where there is a pros
pect of profit, but he wants his profit
pretty well assured, and once he gets
his claws in, he is not very particular
about any one else getting any profit at
all. Thus he has looked at the scheme
for buying up the plantations on the Hilo
coast from Paukaa to Pepeekeo and he
has sent agents to examine the lands
and the books and to fill him I'D with
information, and then he gently turns
round and offers to pay the owners in
bonds instead of in gold, which is very
shrewd proceeding indeed, for if there
are any profits ]. B. would sweep them
in, and if there were losses, why the
gentlemen who might hold the bonds
would find their nominal value sink. It
was a case of heads 1 win, tails you lose,
which j. B. has played good many
times. And yet this Hilo scheme was
not bad one and we have yet hopes
that more equitable platform for the
seller may be reached. There is perhaps
no district in the Islands which can turn
out sugar as steadily as the Hilo district.
To ride through it or to coast along it,
alike gives the traveller an idea of how
fertile it is. Miles upon miles of cane.
No sooner is one plantation passed than
another commences; it is one unbroken

association; delegates, elected among
the laborers, representing the members
on these islands, and the business COM
mittee at Honolulu. Several amend
ments were made to the constitution, and
also new articles were added to it, which
will prove not only beneficial to the la
borers themselves but advantageous to
their employers.
Diplomatic Agent and Consul General
Taro Ando and Mr.. Katsura were elected
as the president and recording secretary
of the meeting respectively, and Rev. K.
Miyama offered prayer at the opening of
each meeting. 1t continued daily until

LATEST WHALING NEWS.
Some Very Fair Catches-Fears for the
WhaIer Ohio.

| some very AIR CaCcheS-f ears Tor the
WhaIer Ohio.
| The San Francisco Chronicle of recent
date has the following whaling news:
The whaling steamer Orca, Captain
Bouldry, arrived in port yesterday, tour
| teen days from Fox Island. Lucky Boul-
dry is again on the top of the heap He
caught sixteen whales during the season,
which makes him high hook for the past
three years. AS the result of her voyage
| the Orca brought down 1900 barrels of oil
and $4,000 pounds of bone.
The whaling bark STEAMBOAT followed
| in the wake of the Orca, forty days out
from the Okhotsk sea, bringing cargo
| of 222 barrels of oil and 1000 pounds of
bone.
The bark William Bayliss came in from
the Arctic ocean, via Fox island, thir-
teen days from the latter place, with no
fault to be found with her trip, she bring
ing 750 barrels of oil and $4,000 pounds
of bone.
The steamer Lucretia, which first
brought the news to the j A. Rowland
of the ice-bound whalers, arrived yrster-
day afternoon with $50 barrels Of oil and.
900 pounds of bone. She was seven
teen days from Fox island.
The whale bark Lancer followed the
Lucretia. She was also out seventeen
days from Fox island and brought I75
barrels of oil and $500 pounds of bone.
This leaves now only three more whalers
to come, when the entire feet will be in
port. The delinquents are the Ohio, the
John and Winthrop and the Ocean.
Whaling captains in port'are of the
opinion that the bark Ohio, now over
due, is lost. One of the captains states
that she was last seen at the tail end of
the fleet in the blight off Cape Lisburne,
Arctic Ocean. Another statement is that
she was seen near ST. Matthew's Island,
in the Behring Sea. If the former state
ment is correct, there is ground for the
belief that the bark is lost in the Arctic;
if the latter story is true, she may still
be on her way down. Regarding the
safety of the John and Winthrop, an
other whaling bark, it is surmised that
she has put into some port in Japan to
land one of her officers, who is under
Indictment for offenses committed against
the United States laws, and she is daily
expected.
