Conceding liver disturbance to be the
primary cause Of premature wearing out Of
the heart, two questions arise: What modeof
Gfe will prevent these diseasess and, when
they exist, how shall life be 50 regulated as
to avoid sudden deathf The answer to the
first question is: A discreet life, temperance
in all things, particularly the avoidance Of
the habitual use, even in moderation, of
stimulating drinks, and the ingestion, Of too
much meat. In answer to the second are
quoted Dr. George Harleys rules: a. Take
exercise without fatigue, q nutrition with
out stimulation and O. amusement without

THE PURITY OF OUR WATER SUPPLY.

GA Workingman" alleges in the
Bulletin that the water supply of
the city is contaminated by heavy
body of decaying grass on the up
lands. This has accumulated under
the growing grass since the cattle
were removed. This would particu-
larly apply to the upper portion of
Nuuanu valley, known as Luakaha,
a Grown Land, comprising some
seven hundred acres of valley pas
turage, the lar~er part of which is
drained by streams flowing into the
upper reservoir. About twelve years
ago, we believe, the milk ranch then
occupying that tract was bought
out by the Government, and the
stock removed. The grass, jungle
and forest have since grown undis
turbed, and there are large accumu
lations OF dead vegetable matter I'M
derneath. No evidence is presented
by " A Nottingham that the Lua-
kaha water, derived in large part
from this source, is impure. A thor
ough analysis of the water supplies
of Honolulu was made not very long
ago by Prof Van Slyke. He found
the Luakaha water in the reservoir
below the electric light works to be
of the highest quality for purity
That in the lower reservoir, to the
watersheds supplying which cattle
have access, was, in comparison,
quite impure.
"Workingman's' allegation, there
fore, appears to be fanciful. Decay
ing animal matter breeds poison.
Decaying vegetable matter, if undis
turbed, rarely does so. If other
wise, how is it that the purest
streams are those draining vast for
ests with their thick beds of rotting
leaves and wood? As soon as this
heavy mass is torn up by the plough
or otherwise, it begins to breed
miasm. Left to nature, it seems to
act as q purifying filter, OBTAINING
the rainfall upon the land, and de-
livering the water gradually and in
purity to the streams. This is what
now goes on at Luakaha. Formerly
the cattle tore up the decaying vege
tation with their tramping in multi
tudinous trails, fouling the streams
with deleterious matter Large
spaces at the heads of the foothills
were entirely denuded, and enor-
nous quantities of earth were car

THE FUTURE OF THE HAwAIIANS.

A paragraph appeared some time
ago in a foreign paper to the effect
that New England had expended
about one million dollars in Chris
tianizing and civilizing the people of
the Sandwich Islands, and that now
California is reaping the benefit IN
trade with the Islands of about ten
millions Of dollars per annum. What
connection these two statements may
have with each other we are not
going to discuss at present. We
simply note the fact that trade has
developed from small proportions
fifty years ago, to very respectable
dimensions at the present time. Ii
tenth part of what is predicted
by some of our sanguine residents IS
realized, Hawaiian commerce may be
said to be yet in the infantile stage
of its existence.
The relation which this expansion
| of commerce will have to the char
acter and social standing of the ma
tive race is a matter of great impor-
lance, and one to which no right
thinking person can be indifferent.
Will the native Hawaiian occupy a
higher plane, socially, intellectually
and morally, fifty years hence than
he does to-day. The answer to this
query must bide it's time. We can
only discuss probabilities, and these
from a consideration of the condl
tions under which social progress
seems to be made, taking the expert
ence of the ages as our guide. Cir
cumstances and surroundings-w
has come to be generally spoken O.
as conference.-the they do not in
fallibly determine character, certain
ly operate very powerfully upon it
Chief among the elements of char
acter that need to be especially cul
tivated, and without which no peopl
can reach a high plane Of success
are self-reliance, the power Of indie
pendent thinking, and a respect TO
honest productive industry. Th
appliances and enterprises Of benev
olence and patriotic legislation have
; it is to be hoped, started out 998gy s PSI
man6enetit of the native people
With such appreciation of the needs
of the case and willingness to pro
vide for the same as we now see evil
dence of, we may reasonably hope
that the average natives of fifty
years hence, be they many or few,
will be better men and better citi-
zens than their ancestors of to-day

AnTnfair Comparison.

Mr.. EDITOR: The Bulletin Of the
9Th tries to show partlality in the
Government Prosecutor, because a
shooting case less than three months
old is not yet tried, although Gus
toms fraud case three years old is
hurried to trial this month! As from
newspaper report Il know nothing
else about it,, the former case appears
to have been one Of self-defense, the
Bulletins impotence at the delay
hardly seems called for. There
seems quite apparent desire to
work up sympathy for the other of
| fender. / do not wish in the pend
ency of his trial, to stir up the Oppo-
! site feeling; yet must demur to the
Bulletins position that the charge
against him IS less serious than that
against the former offender. 1t can
not be forgotten that the liquors
fraudulently withdrawn from the
Custom House, were expressly for dis
tribution at the polling places in order
to corrupt Herewith the native
voters, SO as to pack the Legislature
with Government officials, who
should be helpless tools of the Elk
ecutive. The result was the enact
ment of laws which produced car
nival of waste and bribery. This
cost the treasury several hundred
thousand dollars, and deprived on,
miserable Chinaman of his FORUM
and his life. 1t is virtually if no
formally charged against the presen
defendant that he was the chic
agent and procurer of those il
power in this Legislative corruption
: 1 submit that it is not wholesome 70
us morally or safe politically, t
minimize otfenses of this nature.

In the present undisturbed condi-
ton of Luakaha, the rank vegetation
is natures efficient disinfecting
agent for purifying the water sup
piled to the town.
The action of the Government at
that time met with general approba
ton, as did subsequent measures of
like character We think that this
plan Of action continues to be ap-
proved, and will stand as a wise
and necessary method of dealing
with the matter. In any case the
Administration would deserve the
severest censure if it altered so well
approved an arrangement, which
has stood the test of years Of trial,
without the fullest investigation of
the subject, and a general consensus
of opinion from competent special
lists to guide them.
"Workingman's" letter is an ex
cellent illustration of the readiness
of some persons to undertake to en-
tighten the public upon subjects
which they do not themselves IN
derstand. His real animus appear.
in his vigorous but Ill directed little
TRADE against the Ministry. HI

less very much in earnest, but h,
will hardly get up another revolu
ton on the dead grass question.
