THE ELELE'S POLITICS.

In it's issue of August Sd last, the
Elele says that our comment as to
the injurious nature of much which
has appeared in it's columns, is an
unqualified and malicious lie. We
spoke of melting race prejudice and
of the attempt to foment trouble on
account of the present constitution
and government. No better illustra-
ton can be given of the truth of our
comment than to quote from the
Elele. In its issue of said date it
translates from its issue of July
81, 1889, as follows:
"Never before in the history of Ha-
wall, was an organization 80 important
as the Hui Kalaiaina is, at the present
time. It's platform cries aloud to the
Hawaiian people to come and save the
nation of their forefathers, to come and
save their King Kalakaua, His Majesty,
His Throne, and His people are sur
rounded on all sides by enemies, even
those for whom His Majesty has made
many sacrifices, are to-day, arrayed
against him. Not only are foreigners in
league with Hawaiians, trying to under
mine His Majesty's Throne, but it seems
as though, all the spoil-hunting crowd
are on His Maiesty's track. He is
ignored on the one side by His Cabinet,
who are the head of the Reform Party.
The constitutional rights of His Majesty
are trodden under foot. The
people have constitution now, which
was forced on them nevertheless, they
must submit to it, till they elect Legis-
lature which will as sure as day regulate
all the grievances the people have
It is disgrace to the foreign
and Hawaiian elements of this Kingdom
to ever put themselves on record as
traitors to His Majesty King Kalakaus
in his constitutional rights.
The Elele pledges itself to support His
Majesty King Kalakaua, in all his con
stitutional rights against all parties
whether they beforeigners or Hawaiians
and will also support His Majesty anC
the Hawaiian people against making
Hawaii a re public for the convenience o
the CLIQUE, who now run Hawaiian
affairs. In all of which we solicit the
assistance of the Hui Kalaiaina; who
time will show, to be the champions o
Hawaii's independence"
This is only specimen Of much
that has appeared in that sheet. I
implies that the present constitution
is a hated instrument and oppres
sive. Also, that an attempt is being
made to deprive the King of his con
stitutional rights, and that the Cab
met are traitors and secretly work
ing to create republic. Alas! W
are not fit for it +!

Meeting of the Board of Health.

The Board of Health met on Monday
last when the following matters came on
for comment:
When His Excellency L. A. Thurston
arrived at the leper settlement on Molo-
kai, the refractory lepers gave themselves
up Immediately and without trouble.
The general feeling at the settlement was
good, and His Excellency was welcomed
and cordially greeted. There was no
grievances reported or to report.
Following is the report submitted at
the meeting by Mr.. G. B. Reynolds,
Agent of the Board: "The general
health of the city is good, the death re-
cord from natural causes for the past two
months being lower than the compare
tive monthly reports of the past five
years. The work of systematic examin-
alton of the city still continues, the re-
suit being that the odorless excavator
has been kept busy for the last three
months. Measles, which made its ap-
pearauce in June, has been entirely
stamped out, the disease being confined
to two cases. During the present month.
two buildings have been shifted from
Kakaako and placed in position al

working order"

London market. Whether this in
dustry will be crushed in FIJI from
a similar cause, as colored labor IS
also employed there, remains to be
seen; but would it not pay whites to
perform the necessary manipula-
ton?
There are large areas around
Honolulu, and indeed all over the
islands of the Hawaiian group,
where any kind of flowers can be
cultivated at little expense. Many
of the areas are almost useless for
other profitable cultivation; but
roses and other flowers, yielding the
best perfumes, can be grown in al
most any soil and with little care.
| The chief question is, of course
whether the industry would pay
sufficiently, and the answer IS that
| it has been found to pay well II
other countries. The work OF ex
tracing the perfumes is easy ant
simple, and females are usually EN-
ployed to do the gathering, squeez
ing, and handling of the flowers.
It may be important to give thi
matter some consideration, by thos

THE DAILY
THE POSITION OF MATTERS.

Comment has been made, that
when the instruction of July Both
broke out, the Government was sur
prised, and that there was a general
state of "unpreparedness." Europe
is fully armed. Each nation is
standing, like bulldog showing its
teeth, and glazing at each other.
Whether a general disarming would
operate as well to prevent war, is an
open question. But it is certain that
the constant state of armed prepare
ton is sure preventative Of war.
Whether required or not every thing
is complete and ready. We are not
Europe, nor a European nation, but
experience has taught US that we
must be alert and prepared. What
then can be thought of the policy in
accord with which, all of the Gals
sons belonging to the eight large
brass field pieces have been returned
to the barracks? AS field pieces the
guns are of little use without them
IL necessary to use them at any time
they ought to be at hand. It may be
said that this assumes difficulty in
getting them from the barracks if
required. It certainly is open to
that assumption. All of our arms
and ammunition, worth keeping in
the country, ought to be kept in a
we'll built arsenal which should be
constructed near Honolulu.

School Examinations in Kona.

Mr.. EDITOR: see you have been
loading up pretty heavily with
school examinations. Itseems to me
you might as we'll put up a little type
on Kona. Kona. of course; you al
ways knew, is the ancient seat of the
Kings and Royalty. Were they not
Kona men, too, that fought in ye
ancient times, the most terrible
battles in Hawaiian history? Kona
proves in those days was some
thing terrible. And it is fitting that
this region, of exquisite climate,
though now, as your notes of last
Tuesday intimate, the country has
been turned into an Assyrian wilder
ness by lantana and guava, should
not pass into oblivion. Nor will it
do SO. It will be heard from in the
future; perhaps no more in deeds of
blood, but let us hope, in exploits Of
wisdom. School examinations have
run their course here as elsewhere.
can give you few notes on two Of
them. The others must answer for
themselves. The Napoopoo school,
Mr.. n. Logan, teacher, went through
the mill on the 25th. A solid pack
of spectators, all of whom seemed to
be intensely interested although few
of them, being Hawaiians, under
stood the English language The
exercises usual on such important
occasions were gone through. The
exercises unusual consisted of the
delivery of four original orations, in
English, by the four boys of the
third reader. The speeches were on
topics of local interest and were de-
livered with fair articulation and
considerable vim. The orations OF
course had been prepared by the
teacher and put into the boys hands
on the previous Monday. The at
tendance at this school has been very
close during the term. The new
building provides very satisfactory
accommodation which is evidently
being duly utilized.
The Konawaena school, Mrs
Sumter, teacher, closed the term or
the 26th ult. with creditable re
view, in which ordinary school work
with recitations, songs and dialogues
filed up several hours to the great
delight of large gathering of the
inhabitants. There too, a new build

hibition passed off satisfactorily tc

THE FLOWER PERFUME INDUSTRY.

In some countries a remunerative
industry has been developed in the
manufacture of perfumes extracted
from flowers; and a similar indus
try has now been started in the Fiji
group.
A few years ago the industry was
begun in several OF the West India
islands; but the flowers having been
manipulated by negroes, the ex-
ported essences retained a negro
flavor that condemned them in the
