ton
Secondly. The Act is in contravention
of Article 18th of the Constitution.
Thirdly. The Act subjects persons to
penalties for dereIiction which it may not

is not only unreasonable and impartial,
but oppressive and in restraint of com

tented and those whose votes will be
lost by staying at home, they may be
very strong. 1t is time for work, not
for inaction. 1t will not do to permit
anyone who is lukewarm or an enemy
to be elected, by default. Every nerve
will be strained to fill the vacant seat
with someone who will try to undo the
work so far accomplished toward con-
stitQtiona1 government and to support
the King in his @ndeovor to regain lost

SATURDAY, :: AUGUST IL, 1888.

YESTERDAY afternoon recorded another
victory for the cause of responsible gov
eminent against absolutism. The bill
requiring books to be kept in Hawaiian
or some European language was passed
by vote of SO to 2. We do not propose
to enlarge on the merits of the bill,
which perhaps contains some rather
severe provisions. The real issue Was
even more clearly recognized than be-
fore, and the vote shows that the House,
instead of retrograding, stands more
firmly than ever on it's former position.
If Mr.. Kauhi had not added one more
to the list of his indiscretions, the vote
would have stood the Hon. Mr.. Paehaole
against the House and the country.

the same purpose. And under fair

should be asked for, [ am confident the

Bills which have passed their third
reading are always sent to His Majesty
with the following clause: " Approved
this -- day of -- 1885," and then
follows space for the signature. The
blanks in the vetoed bill had been filled
up on the seventh day of August, and
then hastily scratched out again, show
ing that on that day His Majesty in
tended to sign the bill. The whole pub
lie will doubtless, now be specializing as
to what caused His Majesty to change
his mind so suddenly. It is certainly
an inquiry of curious interest, not with
out historical parallel. The truth is that
His Majesty has conceived SO extraor-
binary an affection for the new Constitu-
ton that he is even a trife over-sensitive
as to any law which may by any posi-
bility contravene any of its provisions.
Doubtless the Constitutional objections
occurred to His Majesty just in time to
restrain his royal hand from the act of
signature.

There are other reasons why a good
man should be elected to fill the present
vacancy, besides those specified above.
The moral effect of a victory is some
thing which can never be left out of ac-
count. There are of course soreheads
in the reform party, men who are dis
appointed in the attitude which affairs
have taken, and who thirst for a change.
What party is free from such men?
The members of the reform party are
they are of all sorts and kinds, some far
below as we'll as some far above the
average tone Of the movement. Those
who are below it always confound men.
with measures, and lose sight of prin
ciple altogether because this or that
man has failed to be appointed to some
particular office. 1t behooves the voters
who believe that, after making every
Legislature are doing efficient work for
the cause of honest and responsible gov
eminent, to assert that belief at the
polls, by bringing in an overwhelming
majority for candidate who represents
and sympathizes with that cause.
The prestige of a strong majority re-
turned for either Mr.. W. c.. Wilder or
Mr. Schmidt (and we believe that either
will represent the country honorabIy)
will be very great. The opportunity is
offered to the Government, by the cleo
ton, to submit itself and it's principles
once more to the test of popular APP
prevail. We earnestly exhort everyone
who has the good of the country at heart
to bury prejudice and personal pique,
and every merely personal grievance,
and prove, as it can easily be proved,
that the cause Of public honesty and
public order is as strong here to-day as
it was year ago. -

THERE are two names prominently be-
fore the public for election to fill the
vacant seat of Noble for the Island OF
Oahu, those of William C. Wilder and
H. w. Schmidt OF Hackfeld & 20. Both
are excellent men, whose loyalty to the
principles of the reform party can be de-
pended upon. Either will be of help
and assistance in the Legislature. Pro-
badly neither has had any particular
legislative experience, but as far as that
is concerned good sense and intelligence,
both of which are. possessed in large
degree by both gentlemen, go long
way to make up for lack of experience

1t is rumored that two or three of the
delegates chosen from some of the Wards
are not properly entitled to act, never
having joined the Reform Ward Asso-
Citations. This should be looked into, las

The coming election is OF great inn
portance. The Noble to be elected may
not have much voice or influence in the
present Legislature, but the Assembly
will not have adjourned before he will
take his seat. He may be called upon
to vote on very important questions.
The House is not so large but that every
vote is of great Importance. 1t is never
safe to sleep in face of the enemy. In
politics it may be said that the enemy
is ever in front. The enemy in our case
are those who would restore the former
condition of disorder, extravaganza and
corruption. Alone, they are in a hope

in size until the street for a square was
black with people At the corner OF Thirty

it began to look dangerous, but ,:'- officers
promptly turned on the crowd I'd drove
them back otter which they escorted the

were necessary to get all the men from the
mill and the same scenes were repeated
each time. A nunber Uf persons, including

To Purchase and Remove to Chicago the
Libby Prison of Confederate Fame.
CHICAGO. February "a Few departure
in the line Of relic worship has been taken
here. The preliminary steps for the forma.
tion of corporation. whose object is the
purchase and removal to this city of the
famous Libby prison, of Richmond, Vir-
gnia, were taken here yesterday. The
building is of red brick, three stories high
and covered with an eld.fashioned gable
roof. It contains about 100000 bricks.
Competent architects say it can be taken
down, removed to Chicago and rebuilt, just
as it stands to-day. It will be taken
down in sections. boxed up and
brought by rail. When erected in
Chicago the building will be surrounded
by another building 2OOx15O with a glass
roof, and on the opposite wall will be
painted panoramic view OF the James
river and country beyond. Four we'll
known citizens are at the back OF the pro-
ject. The company will have a capital Of
100000, and all the stock has been ap-
piled for. VIM. H. Gray, who got up the
scheme says the building can be purchased
for $23 900, and the option has been taken
on it. 1t is also proposed to place in the
building q collection Of relics OF the late
war, and have panoramic views of the en-
gagement between the Monitor and the
Merrimac and other battles.

TRAIN ROBBERS. BEwAREi

Postal Clerks. Express Messengers and
Train Hands Will Be Heavily Armed.
WASHINGTON, February 4.-Owins to the
alarming frequency OF attacks OF robbers
upon mail trains on sparsely settled routes
in the far West, and the almost constant
eril in which the lives Of postal employees
are placed by these marauders, the Post
office Department has determined to arm
at the expense of the Government every
postal employe ON these exposed railroad
routes with weapons of tho most effective
kind. They will be supplied with an
a abundance of ammunition and every con-
venisnce necessary for prompt work and
will thus be prepared to successfully defend
themselves and the mails from the attacks
OF these road agents, however skilfully
planned or Unexpectedly made. This action
has been taken at the earnest solicitation
of General Superintendent Nash, OF the
Railway Mail Service, who has already
taken steps to carry the new order into inn
mediate effect. 1t is said that many of the
Western railroads have also decided to
arm their trainmen, and it is expected that
With arms in the hands OF trainmen, ex-
press messengers already armed, and the
postal employees, train robberies will be far
less frequent in tho future.
