How She Likes 1t.

Ma EDITOR: There is a Hawaiian
woman in the prison. who was put there
because she would not live with her
husband, and she says she will stay
there rather than ever live with him
again. One wonders what the Noble
thinks of this illustration Of his state
ment, made in the Legislature, that a
Hawaiian woman likes to have her hus-
band send the police after her. He
evidently believes in coercion, in any
case. He does not believe in Macaulay's
doctrine that freedom is the only prepa-
ration for freedom. He does not be-
lieve boy should jump into the water
to learn to swim. He would tie him up
to tree, lest he might be tempted into
the water. There is danger in the
water; he might be drowned
His bait took, and the legislators
honorable legislators all-voted by a
large minority that if wives would not
live with their husbands and bear all
the tyranny they are pleased to infict,
they shall be imprisoned!
People in other lands have been in
credulOus about the existence of such a
law in these Islands. They will doubt
no longer, for the record has been
printed in the newspapers, and goes out
into the wOrld-a sample of the adj
vanced ideas and intelligent legislation
of this Reform Party of Hawaii nei.

true but whether it is or not, assurances
of marital affection may surely be con-
veved in some other way. This particular
compliment is one which husbands
should be precluded by law from paying.
We never heard that the peace and har-
mony of domestic life were ever pro-
NOTED by the interchange OF little COM
pliments of this particular kind. They
are certainly calculated to impress I'M
derstandings of the obtuser sort, and
possibly may appeal to Hawaiians-we
will suppose it to be SO for the benefit OF
the honorable NOble-but that is not.
sound reason for perpetuating bar
barity, and for retaining a law which
will bring Hawaii into general discredit
wherever civilized ideas and civilized
manners bave any vogue at all.
Mr. Hitchcock, who is indefatigable
in a good cause, has introduced another
bill which amends the present law in
way which will practically make it in
operative 1t remains to be seen whether
the legislative murder will be repeated
or not. If it is, the ayes and noes
should be called, so that everyone who
wishes to frighten his wife into subOrdin-
alton by threats of the policeman and
the Jail, may put himself on the record.

The ayes and noes were called on the
third reading of the Governors bill yes
terday, on three motions, to indefinitely
postpone, to lay on the table, and to pass.
The first was defeated by vote of 81 to
6; the second by % to 10; the third
was carried by 33 to 10. There was
something very curious about the voting,
several voting against indefinite post

Lecture on Marcus Aure1ius

Owing perhaps to the hand concert at
the Hotel, Thursday evening, Mrs.
Florence Williams lecture on Marcus
Aurelius was not SO we'll attended as
usual. The lecture surpassed even the
high standard which Mrs. Williams has
set in her previous lectures. Both in
point of logical continuity and in rhetor-
zeal effect, it was without a flaw. The
condition of the Roman Empire at the
general period was first wildly sketched
the influences which shaped the early
life of the Emperor; brief history of
his early manhood, and the years of his
long rule, was given, followed by an
analysis of his character and power,
into their constituent elements. The
lecture closed with a statement of the
two leading moral and religious thoughts
of the Meditations, around which all the
others may be grouped It is safe to
say that perhaps a better lecture was
never delivered in Honolulu. The next
OF the series, on the Republic of Venice,
will be given on Tuesday evening, as
usual.

contemplated.

mean that it was the persons, not the fish,
that were killed.

a Plea for Free Landings.

Mr. EDITOR DO you not think that
our Government is rather behind the
times in some things? Take for instance
the landings on the several islands of
the group. The idea of their being
''private" property in these days of COM
petition Why are they not "all'
Government property and held as such
open to all, so that men of moderate
means can compete with the g would
be" monopolists. AS things are now, a
poor man has no opportunity and no
encouragement to invest his little saw
ings in running small vessels in the
inter-island trade, simply because he is
so heavily Handicapped by these afore-
said mOnOpolists.
am of opinion that if all landings
were Government property, there would
be several parties ready and willing to
put on vessels at short notice, and that
would be a great boon to most of the
small store keepers up on the other
islands, as it would tend to keep the
freights at a reasonable rate. FreightS on
goods, cattle, horses, etc, are high
enough to-day, and when once they are
controlled exclusively by one or two
steamship lines, who cam say<what rates
they may choose to claim?
OF course the ports and harbors are
open for all, but the landings are not
In former times it was perhaps not
necessary; the steamer or vessel which:
carried the freights for the plantations
would also carry the goods for the store
or stores (mOstly owned by the planta-
tiOns) at plantation rates, and mostly by
contract. To-day it is different-alk
over the country places you can find
small stores kept by foreigners, Portu-
guese, Chinese, ETC., which all require
to be supplied, and at a reasonable rate,
so. as to make ends meet, and this can
only be done by the Governments as
Stunning control of all the landings, and
charging each vessel a proportionate
share of the expense of keeping up, and
so holding out little encouragement
for individual enterprise. Plantations
are all right, as they. have so much

secured by contracts; but the small
dealer is not so fixed, and at present has
to pay just what the steamer companies

ATTENTION is called to a communica-
ton in another column, which expresses
the very natural and proper indignation
which every self-respecting woman must
feel when she reflects on the law now in
operation in this country, giving a
husband power to arrest his wife and
put her in Jail if she declines to live with
him, or deserts him for ever so short a
period. No one knows exactly why this
barbarous law remains on the statute
books. Early in the present session of
the Legislature bill was introduced by
Mr.. Hitchcock to abolish it, which
passed its second reading; but when it
reached its third, the Legislature, or a
majority of them, rose up, headed by
the Hon. w. o. Smith, and most foully
murdered it. We were never able to
discover the grounl of this unexpected
proceeding except the one assigned by
the honorable Noble aforesaid-that a
