AS EVIDENCE of the increasing
value of real estate, when well
located for agricultural or grazing
purposes, the lease disposed of yes
terday at public auction, furnishes
al evidence. The sale has been
advertised for couple of weeks in
this paper, of the lease for fifteen
years of a tract of 347 acres Of land
near the Pepeekeo plantation, in the
Hilo district, owned by the Govern
ment. A company of natives had
offered an annual rent of $1,305.50,
for fifteen years, and this was given
as the upset price. The lease was
disposed of by Mr.. Hassinger, at
public competition, for $3.50 per
annum, for the above term, to the
Pepeekeo sugar company, and will
probably be devoted to the cultiva-
ton of cane.

with the streets as the law requires.
We feel, of course, a proper sympa-
thy for the poor stockholders who
we fear are not being very rapidly
enriched by the receipts of the bust
ness, but if very high capitalization
is any proof of wealth, the Hawaiian
Tramways Co. is rich enough to pay
liberally for the privilege of depriv-
ing rival conveyances of a wheel or
two, standing people on their heads
and menacing them with destruction
generally. We are glad to learn
that suit has already been brought
against the company for a missing
wheel or two. It is to be hoped that
the result will tend to abate the nui-
sance. One good we probably will
have to thank the Tramways Co. for:
We presume their presence will lead
to general widening of the streets.
Ii it does we can afford to be thank
full for all the Inconvenience and
pay for the lost wheels by subscrip-
ton among the community.

VIM. EDITOR: I notice in your valu-
able paper of December 18th an ar
ticle on the S. S. China, where it says
that Captain Seabury will show
what is in the steamer" Is it the
bridge or the saloon that he is going
to show? It surely can't be the
speed of the ship, as understand
that that department is under the
charge of the chief engineer. 1t is a
we'll known fact that if steamer
makes fast passage it is the captain
CT. master who gets the credit of it;
but on the other hand, if the steamer
is behind time, the engineer gets the
credit of that. Now at the present
; day an engineers duties are not the
same as they were twenty years ago;
the duties are far more at the pre-
sent day. First, he has the main
engines that propel~ the ship, all
necessary pumps and connections
with it. Secondly, he has all the
auxiliary pumps for pumping from
different parts of the holds, also
the pumps used in case of fire.
Third, he has the refrigerating ma
chinery, which is very responsible
job when you consider he has all the
provisions under his charge in the
refrigerating chambers, should any,
thing give out with his refrlgerating
machinery, all the provisions are
spoilt. Fourth, there is the electric
light engine which is also under his
charge, he is held responsible for
that. Fifth, the cargo appliances,
either steam winches Or hydraulic.
This is no small job of itself, more
SO, when you get ignorant people
working at them, and I have seen
many good winch spoilt with a
certain class of men, such as putting
large hawser round the drum of
the winch and holding them when
the main engines were working.
something had to go, either the
hawser or the winch, very often the
latter, this is going in and out of
port. Sixth, then comes the steam
steering engines; these are all under
the chief engineers charge, also the
steam appliances connected with the
kitchen and pantry, also the con-
densing apparatus, the water for
sanitary purposes. Perhaps some
of your readers might enlighten me
II steamships master or captains
duties have increased this last
twenty years or not? I think not:
rather the contrary His sextant is
the same, or a little improved; his
charts are of later date and the
soundlngs are more accurate. I
think myself that the engineers
ought to get a little more credit
than they do. There is no person who
really knows the laborious work there
is in large ships engine room, and
| am sure If the outslds world knew
more about it they would never pass
an engineer without lifting their hats
to him. j. S. M.

The political news from Maui is as
encouraging as that from Hawaii
and even more interesting. At Hilo
everything went on with a calmness
and completeness of success which
was very tame, while at Makawao
the enemy was present in numbers
and was overthrown. We take this
as happy augury OF final success.
Kalama and Kamakele are to be copz
graduated for the spirit in which
they took their defeat and submitted
to the will of the majority. Mr..
Kala was not so meekly submissive,
naturally enough, as the result was
more injurious to his pride. (The
list stood Halstead 20, Kamakele 26,
Kalama Is, Kala o. AS he received
not even one vote, he must at least
be credited with delicacy rare
enough to be appreciated. The
nomination of Mr.. Halstead is re-
suit on which we congratulate the
voters of Makawao. IF the other
districts do as we'll, and the whole
island when it dominates it's Mobiles,
it will be guarantee, on that island
at least, of the success of constitu-
tionalism at the pools, and stimulus
to voters everywhere in the Group.

Now that the Palace wall has come
down good fashion has been set
which Kawaiahao church ought to
follow. The arguments which
brought down the barricade around
the Palace were propounded in the
shape Of bullets. Kawaiahao church
is a peaceful institution entirely out
of politics and devoted to the other
world so that there is little likeli-
hood that it will ever be approached
by other than messengers of peace.
The church must be persuasively
coerced. The wall was put up and
paid for by the Lunalilo estate, but
it now belongs to the church. It
was erected probably to hide the
Lunalilo tomb, for just the very
reason why it should not have been
erected at all. The tomb with the
iron fence and gardens around it,
presents a handsome appearance,
and if it could be seen with the
grounds around the old church the
general appearance of the neighbor-
hood would be immensely improved.
The removal of the Palace wall
turned what was an unsightly spot
into the chief beauty of Honolulu
and Che example ought to be fol-
lowed by Kawaiahao. High blank
walls do not suit this country
and are hideous in any country.
The time when they had role to
play in Hawaii has passed away,
never, we hope, to return. Kings,
living or dead, have been stripped
by democratic sentiment of their
sacredness, and the barriers which
they have built between themselves
and the people ought to come down.

In Explanation.

In explanation.
Mr.. ED1ToR;-I desire to correct
a statement which appeared in a
letter signed "Justice" in the GA
zETTE of the 10th inst. Your CORE
spondent states that I "the nominee
from the north end would favor
= allowing the King
more veto power" What I did say
was that I declined to bind myself
to vote against the Kings veto, be-
cause, in the event of a majority
being obtained in the Legislature
by corrupt means, there would still
be the Kings veto to prevent it be-
coming law. I am not in favor of
allowing the King more veto power.
In the other views ascribed to me
in his letter your correspondent is
correct. w. HERBERT PURvIs.
