The Hawaiian Evangelical Association.

The Hawaiian EVangelcal RssOciabiVh'
From the Gfty-seven Hawaiian Evan
gelical Churches, there have come
twenty-seven ministers, elected by the
Island Associations, and eleven dele
gates, for the annual meeting. The rou-
tine business has been transacted with
orderliness and despatch. Rev. J. B.
Hanaike proved himself capable Aod-
orator, and Rev. S. L. Desha an efficient
Scribe.
The reports from the churches show
no items of special interest. The work
of uniting the weaker churches under
one pastor seems to be the orde OF the
day. Obstacles and discouragements
abound, but the spirit OF the Hawaiian
pastors seems to be for an advance move
ment all along the line. The Associa-
ton has adopted new rule, arranging
the deacons in three classes, one class to
go out OF Office each year There has
been much discussion about the settle
ment OF pastors. Every church wants
the best preacher, but the churches that
have good pastors do not look with favor
on any attempt to deprive them OF the
pastor to whom they are attached.
Thursday morning was devoted to re-
ports of the Treasurer and Secretary OF
the Hawaiian Board Previous to listen
ing to these reports, the Association
welcomed some delegates from the Cen
trail Union Church. Rev. DR.. Beckwith,
MIR. A. F. Cooke, and Mr.. w. A. Bowen,
presented the fraternal greetings of the
brotherhood of believers in that Church,
with assurances of friendly interest and
readiness for all possible cooperation.
Mr.. +. w. Damon, also, told of the mis-
sionary work he is doing among the
Chinese, and asked the sympathies and
PRAYERS of Christian Hawaiians for these
heather folk that have providentially
been brought to this land OF Christian
light and love.
Following the reading OF the report of
the acting Secretary OF the Hawaiian
Board, Rev. j Bicknell. the Association
discussed with vigorous animation the
condition of the Hawaiian churches,
stirring up one another to more energetic
prosecution of Christian work.
Hon. A. F. Judd was present at the
meeting Thursday afternoon, and by re-
quest addressed the Association. He
spoke of what he had seen in the outer
districts on his judicial circuits. While
commencing the fidelity of some pastors,
he spoke of the negligence of others.
He closed with some earnest words for
the consideration of all the pastors OF
the Hawaiian churches in view OF the
responsibilities put upon them, that
they should deal faithfully and lovingly
with every individual in their parishes,
seeking to win them to Christ and to
life of holy obedience.

waiahao Seminary gave a scripture reci-l
tatlon, in concert, in excellent voice and

entitled, Rejoice in the Lord always"
was read by Mrs. B. F. Dillingham;. 20

Majority for Norton ............... IS
A number of voters from No. 2 were
challenged under a rule depriying mem
bers in arrears of the privilege OF voting.
MIR. Smith had given written opinion
that those on the list furnished could
vote. Their votes are not included in
the above result, but if counted the poll
would stand: Wilson 2O6, Asch ia,
Norton lS6, Mott unchanged, Hustace
126, Morgan lis.
When Wilson, Asch and Norton were
declared elected, there was great cheer
ing, the native fremen hurrahing for
No. ticket, and the successful candi-
dates were in turn compelled to take the
rostrum.
Chief Engineer Wilson said: Gentle
men, members of the Honolulu Fire De-
partment, l thank you sincerely for the
honor you have bestowed on me this
evening in re-electing me as Chief. l
am very sorry that the Assistants with
whom / have served last year have been
defeated. They served faithfully. One
OF the new men is q tried fireman; the
other is for the first time at the wheel
But with them will try to do the best |
can in carrying out the good of the De-
partment. ! hope, gentlemen, after to-
night that all election matters will 60 by
with the result of the election, and that
you will all stand by your chiefs. For
my part will try to do justice to the
Government and the people who support
the Department. For anything else,
you cannot do any better for the Depart
ment. In conclusion, thank you again
for the kind honor you have done nae in
choosing me for Chief this evening.

First Assistant Asch said: Gentlemen
and brother fremen, thank you for the
results of this evening. You have tried
me before and hope you will try me
again. (Cheers.)
Second Assistant Norton, speaking in
Hawaiian and English, said: Inter
preted to our reporter by Mr.. SMITH
Gentlemen, this is the first time have
been presented before you in depart
ment position. / never dreamed that
tonight would declare me Second Assis
tant Engineer. have been q fireman

for which we are organized is one for the

sistants. Qn English) / am Hawaiian,
but white and Hawaiian are all the same
to me. 1 thank those who voted for me
and hope every member will do his best
for the Department. (Yociferous cheers
for No. 4 ticket.)
There now ensued general rush of
firemen over the barricades to congratu
late the elected officers, and as this re-
port was being written loud cheering
continued to be heard on the streets.
The election was conducted amidst the
utmost decorum. Not an offensive word
is recollected in all the natural excite
ment. The very courteous treatment
and privileges accorded the single repre-
sentative of the press who watched the
contest throughout is heartily acknow-
lodged and appreciated.

PratseWOFthy Treatment of Immi-
grants.

From the President Of the Board OF
Health it is learned that the / ,G63 Jap
anese who came to Honolulu by the
Takasago Maru were in unusually fine
condition. This is chiefly, it may be
said entirely, due to the enterprise and
good sense of Captain Brown. His
vessel had no special facilities for the
healthful transportation OF more than
1000 men, but the Captain made it so.
He set his carpenter to work on large
bath, which was fed with warm water
from the circulating pipes, and was big
enough to accommodate thirty persons
at once. The women used to bathe first
every morning, and then the men. The
result is voyage Of more than $500
miles, and not single case of sickness
among 1900 people. Certainly re-
markable record DIR. Emerson says he
never saw so clean and healthy a lot OF
immigrants before. We congratulate
Captain Brown on a most successful
voyage, and wish him as prosperous 3
one when ne returns to US again. II

It is not enough that the foolish cam
psign scandal promulgated by the Rev. @.
II. Psndleton, Of Worcester, who seems to
have been somebody's else's foolish dupe,
should be killed. The author of that scan
dal should be discovered and punished.
As we have said, it is Mr.. Pendleton's
plain duty to follow back the rumors that
be was so reprehensibly silly and reckless
As TO make public, until the original liar
who invented the tale is unesrthed.
But if Mr.. Pendleton has not sufficient
sense of honor to attempt to make repara-
ton for the pain he has 30 cruelty inflicted
upon sensitive hearts, the press and the
people should take their part in the inyes-
tieation.
IL would be q shameful and disgraeeful
thing for the entire nation If it should be
shown that the managers Of the Republican
marty were guilty of originating the White
House Islander, and yet if this is the fact it
should be known, in order that the decent
element Of that party may purge itself oil
the disreputable persons it has raised to
power.
We have not dared to believe that the
Republican managers were guilty; and yet
the Times states this mornining upon what
it considers to he perfectly trustworthy
authority, that whiielaw Reid said recent
", 81 don't see but what we shall have to
have White House quarrel to break the
force of Mrs. Clevelsnd's popularity"
The Times states that il is possible that
Mr.. Reid's remark was made in jocular
way. and we are confident that this is the
fact.
Nevertheless, If others have imposed Mr..
Reid's Jest upon the Republican party In
earnest, those others should be identsfied.

EDITOR MCCORMACK, Of the Grafton
Eagle, has taken o fit over the fact that
General Manager CLEMENTS, in company
with a number of West Virginia delegates
being one himself-to the st. Louis con-
vsntion, utilized his private car as . means
of conveyance to the Democratic Mecca.
Friend MACS fit is further intensified, no
doubt, because so excellent Q Democrat
and citizen as Mr.. CLEMENTS has been
honoped by his party to the extent Of being
elevated to the position of National Com
mitteeman from West Virginia. But what
a blast we may expect to see in the next
issue of the Eagle, since Mr.. CLEMENTS
has so generously rendered this very same
private car to carry the Republican bosses
to the Chicago convention! Such terrible
corruption of Republican morals is simply
awful, especially when it is considered how
very susceptible they are to temptation.
