Ended i'm Two Rounds.

The eight-round contest, in which
Jack Dempsey, of California, who
styles himself Young Dempsey" was
to stop Dominick Barnes. at the Theater
Comique, Minneapolis, came to a rather
abrupt termination in the second round.
The first round was walkaround,
Dempsey apparently playing with
Barnes. In the second round Barnes,
to avoid punishment, sprinted good
deal and went down several times. This
exasperated Dempsey, who lost his head
and struck Barnes when the latter was
on his hands and knees. Charlie Glea-
son, who otficiated as referee. decided
this a foul and gave the match to
Barn Barnes: Dempsey. and ,, Gleason had
make match to go to finish ON the

WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER IS, 1883.

THE advantages of tree culture have
been shown on a small scale in this
country, but there has been no sustained
effort as yet made by our legislature or by
our public men to bring the forests of
these islands under systematic manage
ment. The subject has occupied the
attention OF all civilized Governments
throughout the world, and the "wilIful
waste which has produced "woeful
want is IN many places q thing OF the
past. In British India especial attention
has been given 70 the subject, and the
efforts made there have been crowned
with success. In that country for the
year 1867 a net revenue, after paving
all expenses, OF II OH, 900 rupees was
obtained from the forests, and it must be
remembered that twenty years ago there
was no revenue at all, and that the
country was being slowly denuded of its
forests. Now there is this large revenue,
and the forest land is yearly improving
in value.
No one who travels about these islands
can fail to be struck ut the gradual fail
IRE of the forests. Those of US who have
known the group for twenty or thirty
years have seen for ourselves the EXITING
ton of large tracts of forest lands. Va
rious causes have been at work The
forests have not all been destroyed by
cattle, though undoubtedly cattle have
done their share; but the plantations
have carried off large quantities to their
furnaces, and there has been reckless
cutting by Chinese contractors.
Forests. such as we have here, if pro-
perly looked after, should have amply
supplied the wants of manufacturers and
those of all households. But to so on
recklessly cutting As has obtained in the
past, and to make no effort to supply the
place of the cut timber, is living on our
capital, and some day we shall awake to
a thorough bankruptcy in timber. 1t is
all very well to say the "forests will
last our time; what do we care so long
as We can get what we want" We have
our duty as state, and it is the duty of
each generation to hand on the country
to those who come after it in better
condition than when taken in charge by
the men now in their maturity. This
realizing of the duties of citizenship is
one OF the hardest lessons for men to
learn. We trust the lesson will be
learned with regard TO Hawaiian forests
before the next session of the Legisla-
ture

Boss Rule"

"B Boss Rule
Mr.. EDITOR: A communication with
the above heading appeared in the Bull
letin OF Nov. "a, signed "Aloha," and
dated at Hamakua. The writer is evil
IDENTIFY unacquainted with American
machine politics." or with the techni-
cal meaning OF the term "boss."
The modern 90 boss " is the latest pro-
duct of the spoils system of politics, and
is found in perfection in the slums of the
great cities. Wherever an ignorant or
corrupt voting population exists, there is
the favorite field of the BOSS and the
"saloon" is his natural ally. The Gear
pet-bagger" is simply travelling caDdi-
date for the position.
The theory OF the boss is that govern
ment is an organization for the purpose
of extracting money from tax payers
pockets for the benefit of professional
politicians. Public office is not public
trust, but a reward for partisan service.
The familiar phrases, 1.-The loaves and
fishes, " "the public crib" ETC., express
this degraded view of the subject. \
party is not a union of citizens who are
agreed on certain great principles, and
wish to have them put in practice, but
combination for the purpose of capturing
the public treasury, held together by the
cohesive power OF public plumber" and
controlled by an inner ring of wire-pull-
ers, directed by the boss.
The boss is not statesman, nor an
orator, nor necessarily party leader in
the ordinary sense. The term has no.
thing to do with the ascendancy gained
in fair and legitimate ways by men who
are superior in ability or sagacity to the
average. But the boss knows how to
pack primaries, how to control nominal
ing conventions, and how to trade votes
and combine together all the different
elements of corruption in support of his
ticket. He may not hold public office,
but nevertheless would-be candidates
and contractors have to pay him black
mail.
Now it is true that this advanced pro-
duct of modern civilization has not yet
been fully naturaliZed here, notwith-
standing the tempting field offered for it.
We had taste of boss rule during the
five years preceding June 30, 'S7, and it's
ideal of government was largely adopted
in certain quarters. Fortunately, how
ever, the machine was imperfectly con-
structed, and badly engineered, so that
1t broke down, very much as carpet
bag government did in Sonth Carolina
But we should remember that eternal
vigilance is the price of liberty" and the
very means devised to preserve it are too
often turned into the instruments of
slavery, and that too in the much-abused
name of the az People"
REFORM.
