SCORE one for the Galveston News.
That journal in it's Tuesdays issue
rebukes the Washington Post for an
ungenerous and apparently unjusti-
fed conclusion concerning President
Harrison's recent letter to the editor
of southern paper, concerning the
situation in the south, and to which
reference was made in the editorial
columns of the LIGHT few days
since. The Galveston News can see
something outside of party sentiment
in republican presidents utterance
and give him the benefit of just in
depreciation. For this the LIGHT
yiYeS thanks.

Pictorial Exhibits.

Mr.. ]. J. Williams has had a series of
ten books of his Photographic views of
Hawaiian scenes, numbering up to fifty
In each, neatly bound for the Melbourne
Exhibition. One of the volumes con
tains all pictures in and about the Ma
kee Sugar Co.'s plantation and mill,
Kauai, including views of Col. q. S.
Spalding the managers beautiful resi-
dence. Another series of similar books
goes forward to the Cincinnati Perma-
nent Exhibition. When the Australian
exhibit has served its purpose in the
great exposition, it will be deposited per-
manently in one of the large museums
of that country. These views will doubt
less attract much attention to the Islands
both in the Colonies and the States.
There is, however, a noteworthy def.
cheney In the want of printed cata-
logue, with descriptions of the pictures
and general articles on the attractions
and resources of the Islands.

Evening.

Re-assembled al o'clock.
Consideration of the election bill, in
Committee of the Whole, Rep. Kinney in
the chair.
Noble Smith moved that section 46, as
recommended by the special committee,
be adopted.
Rep. Kamauoha moved the section
pass as in the bill.
Noble Smith said the section in the
bill is not adapted to section AZ already
accepted.
Rep. G. Brown said he was in favor of
secret voting as provided for in the orig
inal bill, but the House had adopted the
recommendation of the special committee
as regards section AZ, and it will be as we'll
to stick to it all through. 1t has been de-
Cided to have the same method of voting
as at Yesterdays election and at the cleo
ton of 1887. For his own part he did not
like it, but the majority preferred it and
the majority must rule.
Noble Smith s motion passed.
Further sections, recommended by the
special committee: Al, 81, So, 81, 81, 90, 60,
amended, and 48, 40, so, 81, 81, 55, 56, So,
SO, go, without amendment, passed.
Noble Castle moved to insert a new sec
ton, providing that inspectors of election
be supplied with blank ballots in case of
accident occurring whereby the printed
ballots may not be delivered Deferred
until next sitting of the Committee

THE result of the late election should
operate as warning to the voters who
stayed at home because they were so
sure that Mr.. Wilder would be elected.
A comparison of the figures with those
of the previous election shows that Mr..
Kaulukou's zeal and good management
brought out almost the whole of his adj
herents, while considerably more than
half of those who presumably would have
voted for Mr.. Wilder never took the
trouble to go to the polls. The result is
that his majority in the third precinct
was larger than his total majority in the
city and nearly equal to his total majority
in the entire Island. There are over
100 registered voters in Honolulu and
only about $50 votes cast, showing that
not much more than halfof those qualifi
ed to vote tor mobiles actually voted.
Mr.. Wilder's majority is a safe one, but
small in comparison with what it might
have been, and the result is warming to
political indifferentism which should not
be disregarded.

might be made applicable to where. its pro-
visions are needed.
Rep. Kinney thought the bill ought to
go through. He had been surprised at the
extent and stringency of the fishing laws of
Nova Scotia, Maine, Massachusetts and
other countries having fisheries.
Rep. Brown said that if the provisions of
the bill are limited to Oahu, we shall soon

The law should have trial; if found bad,
it can be abolished by next legislature.

THE House yesterday reconsidered the
secret voting, and rescinded their former
vote by 20 to s. This meant change OF
eight votes. The deal was effected I'M
doubtedly in the interest of the Chinese.
They will be in the field probably at the
next general election with a campaign
fund of a hundred thousand or more,
which would have been perfectly useless
if the original section had passed. The
House has doubtless acted in the interest
of trade From the standard OF mere
self-interest they have been very short
sighted. Everything will now be done
at the polls, votes will be hawked for the
pitiful sum of a dollar or two apiece,
whereas a legislator will have no value
at ALL If they had taken a course tend
ing to prevent bribery at the polls, their
own vote might one day have been
quoted in Chinatown at $4,000, or even
$4,000 apiece. Now they will not be
marketable commodity at ALL
The Attorney-General perpetrated
capital joke on himself He says he
changed his vote because he was scared
by the company he was in. If he had
the faculty of seeing beyond his nose, he
would speedily discover that he was out
of the frying pan and in the fire, for he
has now got all the low fifth-rate poll
ticians in the United States in his COM
pany. The eagerness of the Attorney
General to avoid bad company is highly
proper and commendable, but we can
not help thinking that in this case he
has given an injudicious exhibition of it.
We do not for a moment doubt the
honesty of intention of those who have
opposed the cause of secret voting, and
for the opinions of many among them
we entertain a very high respect. In
this case we must feel that they have
highest and best political methods, in
short, lack of confidence in the work
ing of republican institutions, when the
ballot is perfectly free. They have re-
fused to let the experiment of such a
ballot be tried here. They may be right
1t may be true that ballot free from
any influence except argument is not
going to be good thing for US, out we
cannot avoid pretty keen regret that
the refusal to bring the matter to test
should have emanated from a reform
legislature.

We believe the veto of the governors
bill, taken in connection with the sign
ing of the other, was an outrageous con-
spiracy on the part of His Majesty to
make the supporters of the veto ridicu-
lous in the eyes of the country. The
scheme was a neat one, but luckily only
two members of the House were entrap-
ped into voting for costly office without
any duties attached to it.

Mr.. TOWNSEND introduced on the Both
of July bill to regulate the civil service
of the Kingdom. The bill has been
printed, but yesterday it was summarily
disposed of by indefinite postponement,
without even the compliment of reference
to a committee. The bill is a most i'm
portant one. 1t is based upon the civil
service law in the United States which
has the approval of every man of high
political standing in the United States.
As everyone knows, the cause of good
government in that country depends on
hardly anything more than on the rigid
enforcement of that law and it's extern
sion to branches of the public service to
which it does not at present apply.
There may perhaps be reasons why a law
of the kind is a good thing for America,
and yet not a good thing for us, but it
does not at present appear what these
reasons are. Doubtless Mr.. Townsend's
bill was introduced rather late in the
session, but at least a reference of it to
committee was due to the Importance of
the subject, and courtesy and fairness de-
,manded it. If the committee had then
seen fit to commend postponement of
consideration of the subject until the
next session of the Legislature, well and
good. The strenuous opposition of the
Minister of the Interior simply lays his
conduct and motives open to miscon-
struction, without any compensating adj
yantages. 1t looks as though he thought

THE Act abolishing the office of Gov
ernor was passed over the veto yester-
day by vote of 40 to 2. The King
signed the bill assigning the duties Of
governors to other officials, so that moth
ing was left to Governors. Messrs. Wide
mann and Nakaleka voted to sustain the
veto. Mr.. Widemann said he saw no
reason to change his vote.

cepting Kauhane and Kalaukoa. Doubt
less these facts will not be forgotten at
the next election.
