HAWAIIAN LAW.

A Digest Being Brought Out by Col
Thompson.
It is learned that NJ. Thompson, at
torney at law, Honolulu, is preparing an
index-digest to the decisions OF the
Supreme Court of the Hawaiian Islands.
The work viii be in the alphabetical
order of the points of law decided in the
reports, and will contain cross refer
ences, so that every point of law decided
by the Court may be readily seen under
it's appropriate head, with reference to
the name of the case, volume and page,
etc. Col. Thompson's well-known legal
abilities and experience in such work
afford sufficient guarantee that the work
will be accurately and we'll done; and if
SO, it can but be desideratum to the
bench and bar.
1t will be a saving of time to Judges
and lawyers by directing them to the
points of law decided by the Court, and
to the case, book, and page where the
case appears In eXtenso. 1t will be valu-
able to laymen, who may at small ex-
pense acquire a knowledge of the pith
and marrow of the law of Hawaii as ex-
pounded by the Courts,
Doubtless many copies of the work
could be sold beyond the limits of Ha-
waii, as many important and interesting
questions of local, maritime, and inter-
national law have been raised and de-
cided in the Hawaiian courts, that were
probably never raised or decided in anv
other country. 1t is understood that
some OF the ancient laws, usages, Gus
toms, habits, traditions, legends, super
stitioDs, idolatries and domestic econ
omies, ETC., of the Hawaiians were
necessarily considered, by the courts, in
the authorizations of the rights of per-
sons and properties.

everybody virtuous, rich and happy by
Act of Parliament.
The organized efforts of any class of
people to improve their condition by.
legitimate means are always entitled to
sympathy and respect, and as no one is
likely to ever learn to swim by keeping
away from the water, so the wage earn
ers will have to learn, as mankind at
large, in all the ages, has had to learn
by constant experiment and repeated
failure what objects are best worth striv-
ing for, and what are the most practical
BILE means by which those objects can be
secured.
The Knights were an Order having
vast membership and welding an i'm
mense power. There were some broad
and generous features about the organ
ization which seemed to put it on a dis
tinctly higher plane than the trade
unions and other organizations which
had preceded it. It had in it the promise
and the possibility of great good. In so
far as it has failed in accomplishing the
more worthy portion of its mission, the
failure has been due to the causes indi-
Gated above. The more violent and I'M
reasonable portion of its membership
were able to gain sufficient control over
the machinery of the organization to use
it's great power in the furtherance of
their own foolish ideas, and in the carry
ing out of measures which were not only
unwise, but unjust, illegal, tyrannical
and outrageous. The result has been a
loss of public sympathy and respect and
a serious detection in its own ranks.
The ultimate results to the Order cannot
be positively foreseen. Although the
supposition may not be capable of i'm
mediate verifcation, it seems every way
probable that those who have with
drawn consist largely of the more mod
crate and conservative members. In
this case the organization would, OF
necessity, fall more than ever into the
hands of the violent and INSCRIPTIONS,
and the result be the entire ruin OF the
Order at no very distant day. Although
this seems probable, our wish and hope
is that the outcome may be quite diff
ferent.

Letter of Thanks.


Mr.. EDITOR: I desire to avail myself
of the columns of your paper to thank
those who contributed towards furnish
ing the means for purchasing Christmas
gifts for the children at the Leper Settle
ment on Molokai and the girls at Kapio-
lani Home at Kakaako. It is to be
hoped that the kind friends who have
contributed either money or articles of
value for this purpose will accept this
general return of thanks, and will par
don the non-mention of their names with
specification of the articles, or cash con-
tributed.
The total amount of money contributed
was $50, of which $3.50 was used, leav-
ing balance of So. so in the hands of the
Board for future use. There were also
contributed lot of canned fruits, dried
fruits, crackers, nic-nacs, one box Of
shoes, lot of toys. one croquet set, one
game, three dressed dolls, and one box
of fresh apples; also various bundles of
clean rags and cast-off clothing, for which
there is always demand at the Leper
Settlement.
If in this general mention any gift has
been overlooked it is hoped that the
giver will not take offence, but will be
rewarded with the consciousness of hav-
ing done kind act and been the means
of giving pleasure to many.

Pres. Board of Health.

THE KNIGHTS OF LABOR.

This, the most powerful labor organi-
cation which ever existed in America.
has, within the last year, suffered a seri-
GUS loss of membership, with correspond
ing impairment of financial ability. At
the session of the General Assembly of
the Order, held in November, the Gene
raj Treasurer presented his report which
showed that according to the receipts
from taxes, which is simply another
name for dues, the membership
had decreased about 100000 during the
past fiscal year. 1t also appeared that
the receipts were not sufficient to cover
the necessary expenses. To meet this
emergency the Treasurer recommended
certain changes and retrenchments,
which it is estimated will reduce the ex-
penses to ala amount within the probable
income.
Whether this serious impairment of
numerical and financial strength is to
run on into settled decadence and end
finally in the extinction of the Order, or
whether it is to act as a timely and forci-
BILE reminder of the mistakes that have
been made, and so serve as salutary
means of discipline and instruction for
the future, remains to be seen. The re-
suit will depend upon the amount of
wisdom which may chance to reside in
the remaining mem bership.
The fundamental danger besetting this
as well as similar organizations, the rock
upon which they all alike are liable to
come to grief is one and the same, viz.
an inability on the part of those compos-
ing them to distinguish between the
practicable and the impracticable, to dis
criminate between aims and methods
which are desirable and attainable, and
those which are chimerical and whose
prosecution can only end in disappoint-
ment and loss. Men who honestly be-
lieve that they have a grievance, and
who are convinced that they and others
in the same walks of life do not receive
as large share of the worlds wealth as
their services in producing that wealth
fairly entitle them to, frequently and in
deed generally fail in securing the OBJ
jects they set before themselves, from
failure to realize that commercial and in
dnstrial matters are regulated by natural
laws which it is useless to ignore, and
from whose consequences it is impossi-
ole to escape. By natural laws, we

RIPoN AND MORLEY
Address an Enthusiastic Gathering in
Behalf of Ireland.
prRtlx. Feb.

DUBLIN, Feb. ?,
This evening Leinster hall was filled to
its utmost capacity Ex-Lord Mayor Sulli,
van presided. Dayitt, Redmond Healy,
Plimsoll and a large number of Parnellite
commoners We're on the platform. The au-
dience rose en- masse to greet Lord Ripon
and Mr.. Morley.
Sullivan opened the meeting with short
address, and read a letter from Archbishop
Walls :, now in Rome, apologizing for his alb
sence.
+. Dwyer of Gray. NJ. F., proposed a res
olution welcoming the visitors on behalf of
Ireland, and expressing thanks TO the liberal
party for their efforts in furtherng the Irish
cause. II was carried amid grea, enthusi-
asm.
Lord Ripon addressed the meeting and was
loudly cheered. He said he had belonged to
the government which voted coercion for
ireland, but he had come TO see that there
was no hope in such measure $, and the time
was near when lreland's hopes would be
crowned with success. He appealed TO them
not 10 allow violence to goad them to COM
init crime. He wished to assure the English
and Scotch protestan.s that there was not the
slightest reason TO fear that the Catholic ma
Jority would interfere with their Just inter-
ests or with the Irish protestants, because if
there should be any unjust interference,
those who had given home rule would take il
away again.
Morley met with warm welcome. He
said that the home rule question was rapidly
approaching crisis. The governments pol
icy was pitiful and cruel farce and had ut
terly failed TO discourage the commission of
outrages.
