the Sacramento Courts so easy to delude
with his perjured plea OF self-defense
A sentence of ten years at hard labor in
the State Prison has followed his con-
viction of manslaughter. 1t is the ex-
IRENE penalty for that crime and he may
consider himself still fortunate because
the verdict was not murder and the SEN
tence capital.
1t is an old saying that 'justice travels
with leaden heel and strikes with an
iron hand" 1t is especially applicable
to the courses of California law. Tardi-
ness is the bane of our Criminal Courts
while it is their virtue that, as a rule,
after much delay they make an effort to
accomplish justice at last. Such is the
history of this homicide OF an honest
and inofensive journalist by brute he
exposed to merited contempt. Powell
will probably end his worthless life in
Jail.

OFFICE OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH,l
HONOLULU, Oct. IA, 1889.
The Board of Health, desiring to avoid
unnecessary alarm, owing to the existence
of measles in the community and the i'm.
possibility of quarantining cases of the
disease in their various scattered localities
publishes the following directions and sug-
gestions for the guidance of families in
which the disease may appear.
From the reports of the physicians il
appears that there have been over one
hundred cases in Honolulu but the cases
treated are very light, and by carefully OBJ
serving the directions herewith given, no
danger is to be anticipated.
DIRECTIONS.
l. All persons affected with measles
should be confined to the house, and while
feverish, especially if children, had better
remain in bed.
2. As to food, this should be simple and
nutritious, such as poi, bread, milk, well
cooked rice, and plain soups. Water of
ordinary temperature may be partaken OF
lIccly Wl1lCn Is lue DeSb
3. Avoid chilling the body by exposure
to draughts and currents of air; but do not
stife the patient in an unventilated room
nor overhead him with too much clothing.
4. To preserve cleanliness and comfort,
warm sponge bath may be used once a
day which should be taken in the house
and should always be followed by the
careful use of the towel and recovering the
body with dry clothing. But bathing in
cold water and bathing in the open air, is
to be positively abstained from.
5. As a rule no medicine is needed and
none had better be taken, unless pre-
scribed by physician.
6. In order to limit the spread of this
disease which is infectious and contagious,
children who have not had the disease
should be excluded from the room occupied
by the sick person and, if possible, from
the same house, if small one, nor should
they be handled by those who have Just
come from the presence of the sick.
The soiled clothing and bed-clothes of
the sick one should be plunged into (boil-
ing) hot water before washing.
Z. No child should be allowed to return
to school until several days after the skin
has regained its normal appearance, the
cough has ceased and his strength and
appetite are thoroughly restored.
8. If cough or bowel complaint persist
do not fail to seek the advice of a physi-
clan at once.

A RIGHTEOUS VERDICT.

Our readers will remember that
some two years ago, the late Ralph
S. Smith was killed by a man named
Powell, at his home in Redwood,
California. Money was on the side
of the culprit, and his friends sue
ceeded in winning over the jury in
two trials. On the third trial at
Sacramento, Powell was convicted
of manslaughter. We copy the re-
port of the sentence from the San
Jose Mercury of Oct. 9Th.
SACRAMENTO, October with CULVER
ing lips and trembling limbs Lewellyn
A. Powell fell back in his chair when he
heard his fate announced this morning
by Judge Hunt. The murderer of Ralph
S. Smith, late editor of the Redwood
CITY s-Gazette, has been found
guilty by lenient jury of manslaughter
after two unsuccessful trials in Redwood
City.
The defendants attorney made for
NAL motion for new trial on the briefs
heretofore submitted, and Judge Hunt
denied the motion.
"Let the defendant stand up" ordered
the Court, and Powell then attempted to
look Indifferent, but soon the heaving of
his chest and the trembling hand with
which he held his ear to listen better
evinced that within his busom all was
not at rest. In fact, while the informa-
ton charging him with the murder was
being read, tears could be seen in his
eyes, and this was, perhaps the first de-
monstration of conscience that he ex-
hibited since he fouly murdered an in
offensive and respected citizen.
After having attentively listened to
the indictment, the Court asked him If
he had anything to say why sentence
should not be pronounced.
His lawyer then commended that the
Court had no jurisdiction, as the homi-
eide was committed in San Mateo county,
and the Superior Court there alone had
jurisdiction.
Without replying to the objection
Judge Hunt pronounced the sentence,
which is the extreme penalty.
The ruffian Powell who killed editor
Smith of Redwood and twice baffied JUS
tice with divided jury, has not found

An eastern exchange remarks re-
garding the address of MIR. Blaine
at the opening of the Pan-American
Congress published in another col
umn, that it "has given him a new
hold upon the appreciation of his
countrymen. His sentences were
full of dignifed welcome, of lofty
purpose and of sound advice. His
eloquence was equal to the best
efforts of his earlier years. His sug-
gestions were in keeping with his
official station as Secretary of State
advising the assembled delegates to
act in furtherance of the political
and commercial interests of the
Western Hemisphere, yet dropping
no hint of hostility against the in
terests or institutions of the old
world. 1t was the ripe expression
of broad statesman rising to the
importance of the occasion.

THE CABINET s REPLY.

4u 10 WAOh RAONhOoAO oAAoS W. R@OoO.S
this morning the reply of the Cab
met to the citizens petition to the
Government regarding the Chinese,
for which we are indebted for the
original copy to Robt. Lishman Esq,
Chairman of the organization. The
reply is manly, honest statement,
which grasps the whole question in
all its length and breadth, and pre-
sents it in a clearer and more forci-
BILE light than any statement that
was presented to the citizens meet
ings, or has appeared elsewhere. !.
The ministers meet the question
fairly and answer it without equivo-
cation, and after having ascertained
beyond a doubt that no relief could
he obtained from the present legis-
lature, for reasons stated, they say
that the Cabinet are of opinion that
it would be useless to again call that
bodytogether to consider this subject.
This decision agrees with the opin-
ion expressed by many others, and
is unquestionably sound.
After settling this point regarding
the legislature, the ministers say
that the Importance of this question
requires a decisive statement of
ministerial policy, and declare that
the encroachments of Chinese threa-
ten the extinction of Western civil
cation in these islands, by the sub
stitution of Chinese for Hawaiian
and other foreign population. Also
that the population of Anglo-Saxon
civilization here can only be pre-
served by retaining an educated
population, capable of supporting a
representative government. And
that self-preservation is principle
universally recognized.
They then present an array of
facts and figures to show what is
going on in other countries, demon
strating that a crisis is impending
in nearly every country on this very
question of Chinese population.
This portion of their answer is very
interesting and instructive and they
have brought out an array of facts
which are really valuable, and which
should be read and preserved for
future reference.
The summing up and arguments
presented towards the close make
the most powerful proof which could
be brought forward in favor of some
stern legislation on this great ques-
ton. Their argument on the sub
ject of class legislation and class re-
striction is very convincing one, and
shows that China herself is the
nation that presents the most OBJ
structions to foreigners, and the one
which most persistently forbids
foreigners exercising rights in her
territory.
This document is by far the most
powerful plea yet made in favor of
legislative restriction of Chinese,
and if legislature can be elected in
full sympathy with its tenor, there
can be no doubt that some decisive
action will be taken on the subject.
It comedies all the most urgent de-
mands of those who have suffered
the most from the unfair competition
Of Chinese. And it should receive
the unqualified approval and en-
lorsement of every citizen.
