Mr.. Henry n. Castle took his departure
for another and final year at the Harvard
law school. Probably good many of
the public are aware that for some
months past he has been editing this
paper. But desiring to have rest and
vacation prior to his departure he dis
continued early in the present month.
His writing will be very much missed.
A pleasant voyage and successful school
year is wished for him.

the preservation OF peace and order.

The Government is beginning at once
upon the Improvements authorized by
law and for which appropriations were
made. 1t is probable that considerable
work will be furnished to skilled me-
chanics and others for some time to
come. As already reported in the papers
the proposed new market for Honolulu
will be commenced as soon as plans and
specifications are finished. The plans at
the office of the Minister OF the Interior
indicate that the building will be orna-
mental to Honolulu, and very convenient
for both sellers and buyers The plan
finally hit upon will probably be hol-
low square with the four corners built
story higher than the adjacent buildings.
The location selected is certainly much
better than any other site A market in
the middle OF the town would very soon
become a nuisance in a climate like this.
Whereas on the water frontit can be easily
and thoroughly cleaned by flowing water
every day. This is not the only health
consideration. The fact that the trade
wind blows almost continually is worthy
of consideration. Unhealthy and iniuri-
Gus odors would be blown off to sea ex-
eept upon those rare occasions when
southerly or easterly winds are blowing.
To these considerations must be added
the very important one OF transportation.
A large proportion OF the produce that
goes to the market comes by water, and
it will be both speedy and economical to
have the market adjoin the water or lie
very near to it. When the Oahu railway
is finished it will bring large quantity
of produce to the market every day, and
with the market on the water front the
cars will probably come directly TO it,
whereas it is not probable that they |
would be allowed to come into the CEN
ter OF the town, especially if moved by
steam. Another point worthy of consid-
Grafton is the fact that great deal of |
produce is purchased by shipping and |
the experience OF other countries shows |
that the better the facility the more is
purchased. In general it may be said
that convenient and commodious mar
ket is a mark OF civilization without
which We have existed long enough.
The little cooped up corner of the town
called Ulakoheo has been disgrace to US
long enough and we shall all feel prouder
and happier when we are able to show
our foreign friends respectable market
