A DISCUSSION started some time ago
by a correspondent signing himself zone
OF the Fellows has been going on at
intervals in our columns until We feel
like having a word to say ourselves.
The original complaint OF the Fellow"
aforesaid, SO far as could be judged from
the language of his first letter, was that
society in Hawaii was too strict, too
puritanical, what many people would
call too missionary" He appeared to
think that the standard of character and
morals set up by what might be consid-
cred as good society here, and required
of those who desired to enter its portals,
was unreasonably high. 1t was claimed
that deviations from the strict line of
propriety, or an occasional indulgence
in those vices and follies to which youth
is especially liable, was regarded with
unchristian harshness and involved a
stringency OF social ostracism which
tended to drive men downward, rather
than encourage them to a better life.
Several other correspondents come out
promptly with rather indignant protests
against what they considered a proposal
to lower the moral standards now recog-
nized by our society, to wink at corrupt
ness of character and looseness of life,
and to admit the confessedly immoral to
the intimacy OF their family circles and
social gatherings as freely and cordially
as they would the most scrupulous and
correct. In reply to these critics Gone
of the Fellows" publisheda second letter
in which he repudiated the views attTib-
uted to him, disclaimed any desire to
clover the bars" in matters OF social
morals, and pleaded lack OF literary
faculty and experience as Il reason for
having failed to make himself more
clearly understood. At the same time
he restated his grievance, making it to
be something quite different, and indeed
seemingly inconsistent with his position
as formulated in his first letter. Instead
OF society being too strict, instead of too
much stress being laid upon brains and
character as passports to its favor, it is
now intimated that these qualities do
not count for enough, while wealth and
4 snowy exterior receive altogether more
consideration than they are entitled to.
The discussion has been conducted, in
the main, courteously and with good
temper, and involves questions of social
ethics which are OF the highest import
ance. We cannot 60 into general dis
cussion of these questions this morning.
What we have written above is intended |
rather as an introduction to any remarks
on social matters which we may feel like
making later on. We will only say at
the present time, that, as a result OF /
some years experience of Honolulu So
ciety, we are inclined to consider the
second complaint of zone of the Eel
lows" much better founded than the
first one. Only it is nothing peculiar to
Honolulu. Dress and address 90 for
good deal everywhere. To judge by out
ward appearances and be beguiled by
show does not belong to Honolulu. 1t
belongs to human nature.

A Dangerous Place.

A lady recounts narrow escape that
she had Tuesday while driving down
town, at the railroad crossing on Bere-
tania street near Mr.. E. C. Damon's
place. Without any warning signal of
flag or bell, or even wave Of the hand
from the watchman that was not there,
the locomotive came rushing past, just
as the lady had barely crossed the track
in her carriage There is not much
room to spare for carriages at that point,
and to turn a vehicle on the track in
wolves an almost certainty of break
down in the wheels.

A FRIEND, whose opportunities for OBJ
tanning correct Information about school
matters are exceptionally good, writes
us, among other things, the following
"There is no doubt that the various oppos-
ing sects in this little Kingdom, If allow
ed full sway during school hours, would
soon bring about state OF anarchy.
The only position. which the Board, in
such a mixed community as this, can
take is to be strictlytunsectarian.
even with such distinct statement
as the Board have made there will be
some who will doubtless try to whip
the devil round a stump or in other
words to get religious teaching OF their
particular doxy into some OF the schools,
and there are teachers weak enough to
be influenced by such people. En-
quiries, which I have recently made
from people well acquainted with the
management OF our schools, go to shew
that each religious body makes an effort
where it has influence, to smuggle in
some religious teaching or other

decreased from As per cent. in 1867 to 80

reductions which have been made in the

generally done, that the American peo-
pie at the present time are burdened
with "war tariff" or "war taxes.

Honolulu will be pretty well adver-
tised by the gentlemen OF the press. who
passed through this city the other Sun
day. The more OF this Kind OF adYer-
Using we get the better. Articles which
appear in the leading dailies OF the great
Western centres and in the East reach 4
far wider public than anything which is
done by private enterprise here. The
better we are known, the better the tour
list traffic will become. These islands
certainly offer great natural induce
ments to tourists, but we must offer
greater luxurious inducements also. In
this direction We are now making some
Roadway. The new road to the Vol
eano by which the long horseback ride
is relegated to the past and is replaced
by a pleasant drive is one step in the
right direction. The opening OF hotel
or boarding house at Waikiki is another
step, and the tramway is yet another.
The more facilities we offer the more
tourists Will come. People in this 10Th
century do not care to have to undergo
discomfort, let alone hardship, and our
aim must be to increase the comforts Of
everyone that comes. To do this we
shall also have to discard some of the
antiquated notions which are now no
longer suitable to the changed condition
OF affairs here.

One tithe of the pains put forth to enchain
and hold lovers fancy would, after mar
riage, idealize the wife into the angel of the
house. 1t is sharp ak laid at the root OF
conjugal affection when a man sees himself
lowered to the enjoyment of the second best
OF even every day living.
l once heard good wife congratulate her
self z,ravely that in thirty years of welded
happiness she had never appeared at the
breakfast table with disheveled hair or with
out collar. The sincere fervor OF the boast
was in evidence of the prevalence of the con-
trary custom. The orderly coiffure and neat
neck rig may stand as types of the daily en-
deavor to remain pleasing in the eyes to
which we were once fair. Love of the right
sort may not rip or tear under the bristles Of
commonplaceness and dowdyism, but these
do wear Off the nap.-Marion Harland
