Happily for Chicago, the Carter d.
vorce trial has come to an end for q
season at least. A motion has been
made for new trial but it is to be
prayed that that great city may be
spared from the disgrace Of atoning for
her many sins by a repetition Of such
disgusting rot.
The Minneapolis Journal has taken
upon itself the task of exposing the
swindling practices of the louisiana Lot
terry in this state, and is doing good
work in bringing the ins and outs of
the nefarious business before the public.
It is an evil that we have laws against
and those laws should be enforced.
It is less than month now before
New York will test her new method of
Furnishing criminals by electricity.
With awful suddenness the condemned
Kemmler will meet his doom. The
novelty of the execution brings with it
new horrors, which lead us to doubt
more strongly the justice of capital pun
ishment. To US in any form it is a bar
barous and useless custom, adopted
from times that we should seek to i'm.
prove upon and not to emulate. It is 3
kind of wild Justice, moved by revenge,
which the more mans nature runs to
the more ought the law to weed it out.
The object of punishment should be as
much to correct and reform as to avenge
but in this terrible taking of life by law
no passions are corrected and no fearful
crimes prevented. There are those
who will uphold it as the only safe
treatment of criminals, but public opin-
ion without question is crystallizing
against it. Get barbaritY out of the
state laws and men will soon have less
of it themselves.

The Albert Lea Enterpri Sc in speak
ing of candidates for congress in the
district has the following: 1t is none of
our business who is the congressman
from that district, but we cannot refrain
from saying good word for the pres
ent incumbent. Hon. John Lind, who
has made an excellent congressman and
who doubtless will become more useful
and more influential the longer he is
kept in congress. Mr.. Lind is a very
industrious public servant and is con-
stantly on the alert in the interests of
Minnesota. ....

st. Peter is being warmed up over
school matters. The former principal
who is now president of the Moorhead
normal, has induced some of the best
teachers to go to that place at an ad-
vanced salary, and the present superin.
tendent has waxed highly choleric over
the raid into his own corps. The pro.
fessors are making the papers the med
ium Of charges and replies to charges
against each others ability, while all tho
while matters do not improve and the
teachers continue to remove. The
Moorhead principal is not to blame for
for getting the very best. If st. Peter
has them, she should pay high enough
to keep them there, or else let up on
this great howl Of indignation, because
outsiders are robbing them of their tai
emit.

A petition is being circulated by the
advocates Of a single tax, asking con-
gress to appoint a special committee to
investigate the expediency of raising all
public revenue by single tax on the va

petition. A close inquiry by an able
committee would be as good way as
any of exposing the fallacies of such a
theory. ~

We are not in the least inclined to

office holders.

English capitalists want to buy up
the milling industries of this country
and have even m ade overtures towards
forming a trust on American beer by
monopolizing the breweries. Well it's
natural that they should want to control
such paying institutions, even if they
aren't quite English. -.

The Montana ssKid,, Van qufshed by

SACRAMENTO, December 19-Charles
Turner, the colored pugilist of Stockton,
added another to his unbroken chain of
victories tonight, by defeating Dan
Egan, better known as the "Montapa
Kid" The fight was for $3.50 q side
and gate receipts. The contest took
place at the Armory hall and was wit
messed by 700 or 800 people, many peo
pie coming from Stockton and a number
from San Francisco. Egan entered the
ring weighing 1853 pounds, and Turner
weighed six or seven pounds less.
Anthony Green, Of this city, officiated
as referee. 1t was contest of
science against strength, and science
won. The "Kid" was no match
for Turner, who jsbbed his opponent in
the ribs and face pretty much at his
pleasure. The "Kid" showed great en-
durance, but had to succumb to terrible
blow in the neck in the twenty-second
round. He was badly punished about
the face and body, while Turner showed
no signs of punishment. The "Kid's'
hands were badly bruised from coming
in contact with Turner's head, and blood
was running from bis knuckles when hie
gloves were removed.

CoLUsA, GAL, December 19.-Rain has
been falling since Monday. The Sacra-
mento river is rising fast and is again
out of it's banks, though it lacks several
feet of being as high as it was last week.
The rain is melting vast Quantities of
snow in the mountains, and if it contin-
ues to fall as at present, prospects are
good for another siege of high water.

red at the residence of Mr.. A. Dreier;
Eleele, Kauai, on the morning of Satur-

engaged by the promoters of the Maka-

Came i'll a few weeks back. He was

A Card of Thanks.

Mrs. Rice, the President OF the Hui
Manawalea Society, wishes to express
her thanks, by means of the press, to all
the co-Workers she had at the fair.
Where all put heart and soul into'the
work, it were unkind to specify those
whose temporary occupation gave them
more labor than others; suffice it to say,
that all worked untiringly.
The receipts of the fair $1,000, exceeded
tue highest anticipations, and all who
aided in this work of charity, must feel
gratifed at the result. We send our
thanks and aloha to all: to His Majesty
the King, who generously sent the Royal
Hawaiian Band to Lihue; to the Inter
Island Steamship Company who helped
the good cause by transporting the musl-
cans, free of charge; to the GAZETTE
Who kindly gave us frequent mention IN
Its columns, to Mr.. Berger and the Band,
whose music cheered each heart, TO the
ladies' and gentlemen of Honolulu, who
answered our call so promptly and liber-
ally; to our friends in the neighboring
hamlets, who aided us with donations
and patronage; and last, though not
least, to the foreign and native residents
Of Nawiliwili, Pualoki, Niamalu, Hulala,
hanamaulu and Lihue who assisted with
donations, with work and with patron
age.

HILO HAPPENINGS.

The Tax Appeal Bosrd for Hilo dis
trict had been sitting for three days at
the Court House, Hilo. The board is
composed of Judge F. S. Lyman, Judge
Hapai, and Charles L. Garter. The fol-
lowing plantations had appealed: Wal
naku, Waiakea, Paukaa, Papaikou, Ono
mea, Honomu, Hakalau, and Laupahoe-
hoe.
An article signed a." which appeared
in the ADVERTISER lately, says people are
indignant at the selection of Mr.. Carter.
Now he Is very greatly mistaken, for the
Minister of Finance was eminently wise
in making the selection, and could not
we'll have chosen better man. / have
yet to see the first man that is indignant,
for Mr.. Carter came here with a desire
to do his duty and without bias, and
every one is pleased with the appoint
ment.
A decision has just been given. A re-
duction OF $3.50, 900 has been made from
what the plantations were assessed. All
are satisfied both managers and assessor.
+. M. Hatch, Esq. and Hon. ID. H.
Hitchcock were the lawyers for the plan
tations.
The rains reigns supreme in Hilo and
It's vicinity, and the plantations have
had to stop work. Although our streets
have been deluged for the past two
weeks, the rain gauge does not yet show
that heavy outponr which has been re-
corded in some other part of the world,
| where 80 inches fell in one day. Still,
Hilo has had its full share. The tops of
both Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea are
covered with snow, and of course look
very picturesque.
No more dancing at the rink. It is
now transformed into a livery stable,
and makes a splendid one: what the
young people will do without their
nightly hops remains to be seen. The
merry times must be kept up, for the
dancers always kept good hours which
is more than can be said in most places.
A wedding took place this week the
bride in which came all the way from
home among the bonnie braes of old
Scotland to take up her residence here
with him who is so we'll worthy of hel
love. May their honeymoon last as long
as life lasts.
Several papers are in circulation in
Hilo for signatures, and every one who
can sign their names are signing it, ask
ing the Minister of Finance to secure
!, money to finish the Volcano road.
