u utVANNAu We
To-day a notable event in the
commercial history of the islands
was celebrated. IT was the fortieth
anniversary of the founding of the
well known firm of II. Hackfeld &
Co., by the late Captain II. Hack
field, who made his Grst entry Octo-
Der LIST, lS49. The firm during all
these years has done large bust
ness and gained an enviable reputa-
ton in commercial circles. The pre-
sent active partners are Mr.. Paul
1senberg, Mr.. ii. F. Glade, Mr.. j.
f. Hackfeld and Mr.. Edward Muller.
OF these Mr.. lsenberg is in Ger
many and Mr.. Hackfeld on Kauai.
The other two members were in at
tendance to receive congratulations
on the firms anniversary. Messrs.
II. Lose, f. Suhr and w. Wolters
sign the firm name by procuration.
At 8 O'Clock this morning the Ha-

CHINESE AND CRIME.

EDITOR BULLETIN Mr.. Horner
struck the right chord in the latter
part of his communication which APP
peared in the BULLETIN of Sept. "a,
but whether other parts of his article
were honestly meant as hit against
the Chinese will perhaps be shown
in his future writings. He says,
although living on the ragged
edge of civilization the people should
have right at all times, through
their representatives, to make all
needful laws for the suppression of
crime and the causes of crime and
to promote the general welfare of
the people," Now then it is safe
to say that seven-eighths of the
crime committed throughout the
kingdom is done directly and in
directly through the Chinese. With
their highbinders scattered through
the country ready for action when
called upon; their ensnaring of
young Hawaiian girls and leading
them to ruin; their sly dealings in
opium and many other devilish
ways, one would naturally expect
that those very pious Christians
who are so largely interested inplan-
tations and Chinese, would be the
first To call halt, and raise their
voices against overrunning the ISL
ands with hordes of such people.
But no! they are sullen and mute
as mules ON the subject, and are
found cuddling their Chinese pets
under their wings at the present
time, to the detriment of all social
order and Christian principles. Out
upon such Christianity! A. &.

Some mothers seem utterly incapable
Of amusing their little children. They
can cook for them, sew for them, take
care OF them when they are sick, bu,
have no faculty for making them happy.
The little people fret and NOPE because
the atmosphere about them is work day
so dull, so devoid of hhe imaginative ele-
ment upon which they thrive. Among
the rich, as we'll as the poor, they are
often forlorn because they are in grown
up world; there should be STOPPING Of
elders to their small estate. See how
heartily they respond to the crudcst eff
fort for their entertainment Particu
larly do they like to believe that they
are helping; with tiny broom. they can
sweep, they can dust, and wash bit Of
kitchen paint-only let the mother carry
on the work as if it were play. But thus
becoming part Of the child life Of their
little ones, mothers can gain real infu-
ence attainable in no other way. The
child will be guided BY the one who is in
sympathy with him.

A number of freelunc legislators who
went to Salt Lake City tor Instructions

again impressed with the fact that the
Legislature is supposed to be iu session
here instead Of the Mormon capital-
Utah. There is no end TO the comment
on the excursion. The Boise people,
generally, condemn it, partly from sel-
6sh standpoint, but more particularly on
account of the bad effect it will have on
additional legislation against the Nor.

Idaho legislature is under the complete
domination Of the gentle clan in Utah,

slavish subserviency to the Utah ring.
If they want to pass additional legislation
against the MormoDs, are there not brains
enough TO frame a more severe law than

feature in any government to suck nour-
isbment from another state. It is bad
enough for the Mormons in this terri
tory to draw their inspiration from the
Church in Utah, but it is worse for the
chosen majority Of legislators to get their
points from Sodon and Gomorrah.

A Hugo Joke Taken IN Earnest
Prominent Missourians Sian
dered Without Cause.

Harry Day, formerly of Mexico,

from Seward county, Kansas, and
during the-eanvass the Democrat of
that county made a strong and bit
ter fight against Day, and it pub
Iished column after column of
stuff, purporting to be Days record
while in Missouri. Some of it
may have been true, but if the
following, clipped from that paper
of Oct 26, 1888, is a fair sample, we
would love to know where that pa
per was getting its information.
The extract is as follows
We have learned something more.

the following men were members
Pat Dyer, Chauncey /. Filley, Dan
McIntire, w o. Forrist, J b. Botkins,

1t is true Pat Dyer and c. l..
Filley are Republicans, but they
live in St. Louis and belong to diff
ferent factions of the party and
have not spoken to each other in
years. Dyer and Day are not even

Democrats; Mcintyre and KEENAN,
have both been in the Legislature,
Mcintyre has been Attorney-Gen-
eral of the State and Bob White is
editor of this paper. Evidently
the gentleman who furnished the
Seward County, Kansas, Democrat
with its information in regard to
the above, thought he was perpre-
trating a huge joke. He deserves
to have the "Bald Knobbers' wait

There is no upholstertng in the

between the Pullman Sleeping Car
and the Tourist Sleeping Car. Mr..
Walters has overcome this by
furnishing the cars with new Car
pets, cushions for the seats in day
time, mattresses, pillows, sheets,
blankets and curtains for the berths
at night. Each car is provided
with separate and commodious
toilet rooms for ladies and gentle
men, IN which will be found towels,
soap and all the necessaries of a
toilet room. A eolored porter is II

is to cater to the wants of passen.
