ABOUT SPECIALISTS.

EDITOR BULLETIN: 1t may be out
of place to trouble you with remarks
on such a common thing as our
health, but for me the latter has
been troublesome affair and L
thought that somebody might be
benefited by my experience. Allow
me the following illustration which
gives my experience in nutshell.
Suppose you were going to build
or to repair first-class house, would
you give the job to a man who is
mason, carpenter, tinsmith, painter
in one person, or would you rather
give the work of the mason to ma
son, of the carpenter to carpenter,
and so on?
This question may seem to you
ridiculous, but if so, then people act
ridiculously all the time; or do you
mean to say that the structure of a
human body is simpler than that of
q house? Can you imagine any
greater difference than there is in
the structure and treatment of the
eyes, or the ears, or The fingers, or
the stomach, or the heart, or the
kidneys, or the skin, and so on?
Is it possible that any one doctor
can be an expert in every part of
the human body? That is, can he be
good mason, carpenter, plumber,
painter, at the same time? 1t may
| be possible and | have no doubt that
most of our doctors here belong to
that class, but still will not every
body prefer in important cases
specialist Chat is, doctor who
makes that special part his special
duty.) will not trouble you with
the details of my experience, how an
ear-doctor or how throat-doctor
cured my special ailments, but 1
beg your permission to refer to a
very neglectful part of the human
body, viz, the skin. Several doc
tors examined friend of mine and
informed him that his liver. was the
cause of all his ill-feeling, etc.
Thereupon he went abroad for a
special cure, merely to be informed
that his liver was all right. At last
it was discovered that his skin did
not do its duty properly and he was
treated accordingly by specialist.
This may seem small thing to you,
but are you sure that great many
people are not afflicted similarly
without knowing it? On the con-
trary / am informed that skin dis
eases are of frequent occurrence on
these islands and / believe that an
experienced specialist Ga skin doc
tor) should be invited to settle here
There are a number of skin diseases
which do not care to enumerate,
but let me add that some of oul
worst diseases are treated through
the skin. LEI LEHUA.

A DROP IN SUGAR.

From Williams, Dimond & Co.'s
circular is clipped the fonowing ui--
der date of Oct. 20th.:
Since last advices, Oct. 9th, the
two refineries have made six changes
of prices, reducing cube from 8 to
78 between the 9th and 10th, and
advancing again on the 18th to 7a.
Latest telegraphic advices from
New York under date of October
10th, report market dull but steady.
Cuba centrifugals SO test, Ct cents,
London beets SO test 14s Sd; Euro
pean and foreign markets un-
changed.
Both of the California beet facto-
ries are now at work, but as yet too
early to give definite results, al
though it is reported that the Pacific
Coast Sugar Co.'s product will be
on the market shortly, and that the
Spreckel's factory at Watsonville, is
turning out about 200 tons of raw
daily.
A dispatch from New York re-
ceived in San Francisco about three
hours before the Zealandia sailed,
says: A sale of Cuba centrifgals,
96 test, was made at cents. This
is a drop of 4 of cent.

EOLOA, KAUAI, LETTER.

Although there are at Koloa
scarcely 1000 Observation-Disclosures
included, yet it is doubtful if even
the city of London could come any
ways near to the standard of this
place, as regards gossiping, or the
number of political factions, the
latter of whom must certainly num-
ber about so, comprising the three
principal parties, namely: (1) Su-
perior Intellect, (2) All Fools, and
(3) Independent Parties. Thanks
to the law enforcing the secrecy of
the ballot, it has been found that
the first party enjoys membership
of one, while the third party enjoys
membership of probably three !;
the rest being members of the All
Fools Party. Between these parties
the Independents enjoy the most
of the fun, as they appear in the
role of disinterested spectators,
leaving the other parties to do bat
tie amongst themselves. The first
party is quite active in its warfare,
and would undoubtedly carry of
the palm if some new life had not
been infused into some of the mem
bers of its most cordially hated ri
val, the All Fools Party, whose
platform guarantees to all perfect

STREET GRADING.

EDITOR BULLETIN:- Permit me to
add few words to what has already
appeared in your columns on the
subject of street grading.
The object of street grading, as
we all know, is to carry off water
and prevent its accumulation in any
one spot. A glance at very many
important parts of this city, after a
heavy shower, will at once show to
what extent this first principle
has been neglected. Not only are
large sheets of water, with no possi-
bility of escape, to be found, but
the gentleman in charge of this i'm
portant department of our public
works has, in some instances, sue
ceeded in his art SO as to force the
water into the private premises of
residents.
A case recently was brought to
the writer's notice, where the pro-
prietor of dwelling situated on
King street, seeing the impending
danger of being flooded out as the
rainy season approached, protested
against his property being made
a sort of reservoir consequent upon
the system of grading, so called,
now being adopted, and was inform
ed by a Government official that he,
the proprietor, had the remedy in
his own hands by purchasing the
necessary lumber to form substan-
tial curbing and building up the
side walk abutting the premises.
Whether or not owners of property
should be compelled, at their own
expense,to protect themselves in the
manner stated, / am unable to say.
1 do know, however, that, in this
particular instance, the work, in
volving considerable expense, was
done by said land owner as matter
of necessity, simply to save his pro,
perty from inundation.

nary acceptation Of that term, but
skilled in marked degree in the
art of acquiring knowledge of
other industrial pursuits. The re-
suit has been that he has not re-
mained within the sphere for which
he was originally intended by those
who imported him. He has gradu-
ally pust ed his way into others, and
conseq' emily his competi ion, in
al of affecting only one class of the
population, presses sorely upon sew
eral. And have we any good reason
to suppose that he will not do in the
future what he has done in the
past? Why should we fondly imag-
inc that the bland Celestial has now
reached finality and will rest on his
oars2 Will he not rather push on into
other spheres of labor in the hope
of bettering his conditionyet further
If so, it is not this or that class, but
the entire community whose inte-
rests will be affected by Chinese
competition. Glancing down Reef
Orme's lis5 fail to discern one
sphere of life into which the China
man is inherently incapable of en-.
tsring. In the United States, if
am rightly informed, he has already
been admitted to the bar in one iso
lated instance-an earnest of wha

possibly come to be regarded as
truism by the entire communit,

diction, but of present fact. G.

ANOTHER POINT IN THE CHINESE
QUESTION.

EDITOR BULLETIN There is one
point in relation to the Chinese
question which seems to have been
lost sight Of by Mr.. Gribble and to
some extent by his able critic-one
which, as it appears to me, is fatal
to the main contention of the former
writer, and goes TO support the posi-
tion assumed by "Reef Orme, p
one, moreover, which is absolutely
essential to fair consideration of
the subject from either standpoint.
allude to the progressive character
of the Chinese. However marked
the traditional conservatism of this
remarkable race, it has now awak-
ened from its long sleep, and the
evidences Of that awakening cannot
but be apparent to the most casual
observer. Both your correspon-
dents have named certain classes of
the community whose interests are
said to be affected by Chinese com
petition, and inasmuch as they have
done so they have proved them
selves advocates Of class interests,
which, as matter of policy, is un-
sound.
The conditions existing at the
present moment are not those which
will always exist; neither are they
. those which existed at the inception
of this diff cult problem in the Ha-
waiian kingdom. Time was when
the Chinese coolie, imported for the
purposes of plantation labor, coniin-
ed bis Intention to that sphere. He
was an unskilled laborer, and the
only persons with whom he compet-
ed were the unskilled laborers OF
other nationalities. Unskilled, did
j say? He was unskilled in the ordi-

The "Straits Times says that H.
M. S. Orion was to leave Singapore

she was to hoist the British flag and

The Canadian Pacific Steamship
Company's steamer Duke of West

Captainer Lee, of the Canadian

arrival on Saturday from Vancouver,
that on Friday the 14th Sept. at
10:35 p. M, in Lat. 369 80 N. and
Long. 1929 27 E., he passed a
small rock or reef within distance
of about % miles, which is not indi-
Gated on the charts. At the time
there was a moderte N. w. breeze
with fine clear weather. The sea
was comparatively smooth, but was
observed to be breaking on the rock

THE GnLnNELGY.

Our reporter called on Col. Ash
ford Saturday evening, to try and
verify (or have contradicted) some
of the unpleasant rumors of '!back
stairs" work in connection with the
withholding of his commission from
August goth to October 10th. The
Colonel stated, in effect, that much
of what he knew in connection with
the whole affair was common report,
and the BULLETIN must have heard
of it; that he had never "threatened
to test the consttutionalty of the
Military Law" Gas the advertiser
stated in recent issue); that he
could see no impropriety in the Bull
LETIN publishing the text of the
commission, il deemed o. any pub
lie interest; but beyond that, as he
held and intended to act under the
commission, he hoped the BULLETIN
would not think him discourteous if
he said nothing farther on the sub
ject. The following is text of the
commission:
DEPARTMENT FOREIGN AFFAIRS, |
Honolulu, Oct. 16, 1883.
Coz. V. V. ASHFORD, Commanding
Hawaiian Volunteers.
Sri have the honor to inform
you that after your name was certi-
fed to the Minister of Foreign
| Affairs as the nominee of both bat
talions, for Colonel of the Hawaiian
Volunteers, the majority of the
Cabinet not objecting, commission
was prepared for you and presented
to His Majesty for signature.
! After taking time to consider the
same, His Majesty declined to sign
such commission.
Subsequently it was decided at a
meeting of the Cabinet, that the
Minister of Foreign Affairs should
present to you a certificate of your
election, and q statement of the
facts in the case, and place you in
command of the Hawaiian Volun-
teers.
In accordance with such decision,
1 hereby certify that you were duly
elected Colonel of the Hawaiian
Volunteers by majority of the
field, staff, and line officers of botl
battalions.
And you are hereby appointed
Colonel of the Hawaiian Volunteers
from this date and directed to take
formal command thereof, reporting
to me all of your proceedings unde
this appointment.

most obedient servant,

PITT AND sCOTrs AGENCY.

Attention is called TO the Adver-
tisement of Pitt and Scotts Parcel
Express Agency in another column.
By sending parcels to Europe,
Africa, and the islands of the At
lantic by this agency via Australia
the rates are much lower than via
America, and there are less tranship-
ment and complication than by the
latter route. The Australasian Colo
nies are reached direct from Homo
lulu by this agency whose facilities
for parcel delivery at the antipodes
are very great, and their system
complete. This agency will doubt
less prove a great convenience to
Hawaiian residents. Parcels order
ed from abroad are also received
and foreign orders placed by Pitt &
Scott in London.

ereignty over all the islands above
named. The native population of
Rarotonga alone is over 1000, and
of whites, who are mostly traders,
about GO.
The trade of the Hervcy Group,
which is of very considerable inn
portance, is done chiefly with Auck-
land, N. H., from which port the
steamer Richmond calls at Raro-
tonga once every six weeks. Sew
eral schooners, mostly under the Bri-
tish flag, ARE also constantly employed
in the group.
France, for some years past, has
cast covetous eyes on the Cooks
Group, and some three years ago
sent a man-of-war, the Hugon, Cap
tain Meynard, to Rarotonga, with
presents to Queen Makea, consisting
of silk dresses and other finery.
The old Queen summoned a meeting
of the principal chiefs, and after
consideration decided to decline to
accept any presents whatever. They
were therefore returned to the HUI
gon in the Queens own boats, to-
gether, in order to show her friendly
| attitude towards the French, with
| boat-loads of fruit.
Tho Rarotongans are a fine,
manly race of people, The Queen
and many of her people had more
than once visited Tahiti, where the
French for years have held Pro-
tectorate, which later ended in an
nexation, and, whilst there, con-
trasted the abject condition to which
the Tahitians had been reduced
with her own free and happy people
1t is not, therefore, surprising thai
she viewed with alarm the French
advances, fearing, doubtless witt
much reason, that these present.
and fair speeches, were intended
merely as blind, with the view o
eventually proclaiming the dreaded
Protectorate.
| The more recent action of thu
French authorities at Tahiti in for
chilly, and with much bloodshed
annexing the neighboring islands o
Raiatea, Huahine, and Taha, n
doubt largely influenced Queen Ma
kea and her people, in asking O
England, to establish protector
ate, before she was compelled, q
the mouth of French cannons, t
follow in the footsteps of her TIA
hitian cousins.

HlL0 NOTES.

For weeks past Hilo has been un-
true to its reputation as land of
perpetual showers, and on some of
the plantations there was talk about
the young cane being backward.
Impatience may have something to
do with the latter idea as everybody
wants to hurry sugar forward to get
the advantage of present high prices,
and an ordinary rate of growth, to
minds under the influence of this
anxiety, does not seem satisfactory.
However, the spell seems. to be
broken; on Tuesday. we had a
thunderstorm and plenty of rain
then and since, even to satisfy Hilo's
reputation, so we may hope the
young cane will grow fast enough
to catch up with the market.
The rain does not seem able to
make trade flourish. Everything
here is as dull as ditch water, and
everybody is more or less in the
dumps. Even the Chinese say they
cannot make q living. We try to
cheer ourselves by talking about
that Volcano Road which the Legis-
lature has promised us. Woe he to
the Public Works Department if
they neglect this anchor of our hope.
There cannot be o doubt that this is
a work of something more than local
Importance. Everything that pro-
notes tourists traffic to and among
these islands must be national
benefit.
The Inspector of schools, A. t.
Atkinson, Esq, arrived here on
Monday. He finishes his tour of
Hawaii at Hakalau next week and
intends to return to the capital by
the next trip of the Kinau. Several
young hearts had been going pit-a-
pat for days before his coming in
anticipation of his criticisms. Let
us hope all our teachers came
through the ordeal with credit and
comfort.
Mr.. Webb has been here and at
the Volcano taking notes for some
Australian papers. He and Mr..
Atkinson were at Kilauea together
on Saturday night and report the
"Dana" lake and sundry blow-holes
to have been very active. They
were both delighted with the exhibit
ton of fireworks Pele prepared for
them. Hilo folks are chaffed good
deal about that word "active'' in
connection with their pet volcano,
but when two journalists of renown
like these latest visitors find no bet
ter word to express in general
way what they saw the public may
be excused for adhering to the
phrase. In point of fact when XII.
lauea is active there are grand sights
to be seen which words cannot de-
scribe. The one thing is to be in
ferred from the other so that it il
probable that the word will remair
in vogue with us till someone invents
better.
Jules Taverpier is still here ant
recovered from his illness though
still far from we'll. He has several
pictures on the easel, and says h'
has been well patronized during hi
; visit. He will probably return t
Honolulu before the end Of the year
