/" Fever Heat"

Mr.. EDITOR: [ trust that it is not
true, as ''Pro bono Publico" alleges,
that o"the thinking people of these
Islands" have been drought to fever
heat" by the little fracas in the
Court. One expects thinking men
to take calm and dispassionate views,
and not permit themselves to become
heated in. a controversy which should
have been conducted with the great
est moderation and courtesy, especi-
ally in view of certain tension for
some time existing in the relations
of the Cabinet to the Supreme Court.
I am what the LAYERS call clay
man." and welcome whatever light
Mr.. Hartwell or the Judges can
throw upon the original point of
contention, the ri ght of the Attorney
General to nolle prosequi,
It had occurred to me that the Rob
ertson case might possibly be claimed
to have reached a stage where Mr..
Hartwell's precedents would not ap-
ply. I regret that "Pro bono Pub
leo" did not bring any evidence to
that effect, but contented himself
with mere contemptuous assertions.
This much at least seems clear to
me, from what light has been given;
that the Acknowledgement has a
great deal in support of his claim,
and should not have been dealt with
peremptorily or harshly on account
of asserting that claim, even if he
did so in too emphatic a manner.
Less cheat" on both sides would
have been for the general advantage
but we are all more or less Sub
ject to infrmity" [ would not give
much for a man incapable of excite
ment. Great, however, is the adj
vantage of forbearance and patience.
[ think it is the general opinion
that the Attorney General should not
have personally acted in the prosecu-
ton of near relative. The apparent
improperly of his course in this
respect has naturally prejudiced the
public mind against him in contest
ing his claim to the right to "nolle
prosequi." That however is wholly
an Independent question. Again I
urge calmness and fairness.
I have not heard any person main
tain that the members Of the Cabinet
are mot amendable to Imprisonment
for offences against law and order"
[ agree however with the many who
hold that their high Office and posi-
ton as Ministers of the Crown, their
heavy responsibilities and onerous
duties as in charge of the public
veal, and the mutual Difference due
between coordinate branches of the
Government, should exempt them
from hasty, peremptory and severe
dealings for contempt" or any
other unusual reason. Gentlemen,
all keep cool and ego SLOW"

Changes in the Volcano.

Changes in the Volcano.
VOLCANO HOUSE, KILAUEA,
July 4, 1889.
Mr.. EDITOR The status OF the
volcano Is different now from what
it was two or three months ago; the
change being to the effect that the
general Halemaumau area has drop
ped down about eighty feet. A HOW
broke out on the floor Of hllauea
about the middle of May last, and
the result was the sinking down OF
the : Halemaumau area, in conse-
quence of the partial draining oil OF
the subterranean reservoir under
lying the crater. So that the Hale
maumau area ian upright cone with
a space about it, on and in the floor
of Kilauea, as it appeared two or
three months ago., appears now as
smaller crater within the larger hi
lauea crater. This smaller crater IS
eighty feet deep and mile in dia-
meter. The old cone which, three
months ago rose from the floor OF
Kilauea, now ascending from the
middle of the floor of the smaller
crater. The cone and a circular
shaped portion Zone mile in dla-
meter) of the floor on which it
stood, both dropped down, when
the subsistence occurred.
In consequence of having cone
in the center of it, the smaller crater
is now ring shaped depression in
the floor of Kilauea surrounding 6
small smoking mountain. The visitor
now goes down into the smaller
crater, proceeds along the ring
shaped depression, and PARTIAL!
round the cone, and finds the Dana
lake, (the only one now in action)
as it were wedged in between tn
central cone and the basaltic wal
surrounding the ring-shaped de
preston.
The whole appearance, cone.
mile in diameter Of the floor, an
all, were evidently floating on
molten-lava reservoir below, an
sank when the surface of that resel
voir was lowered The ring-shape
depression will probably fill up, an
a series of flows may occur on tn
floor of Kilauea. So immensel
thickened up, (by reason of re
f peated flows on it), has this sam
floor even now become, that th
southeastern part of it is we'll u

provement of their condition the Gov
eminent has always been active, and
very solicitous. The lepers themselves
were more or less influential people, and
never had any difficulty in making their
complaints heard and attended to.
In the foregoing extracts from the foreign
press, the grossest ISLANDERS upon the
Hawaiian Government, which represents
our Christian civilization, are so mex
tricably intermixed with laudations of
Father Damien that in indicating the
former we have no choice but to dispar-
age the alleged wonderful services of the
latter, which we should have preferred
to let alone. The truth is, first, that no
such abominable disorder among the
lepers or neglect on the part of the Gov
eminent existed. The Govern
ment always took care to have faithful
and capable agents, and gave jealous
attention to the wants of the settlement
without waiting for anyone to importune
them. We now quote from the
Biennial Report of the Board OF Health
to the Legislature dated April l, 1874,
| about the time of Father Damien's ar
rival at the settlement. This report is
signed by Hon. H. A. Widemann, then
| President of the Board of Health, a gen.
tleman of high standing, Catholic, a
vigorous critic of administrative faults,
and his party having just come into
office, quite at liberty to denounce any
neglect of the late Protestant Minister of
Interior E. O. Hall. Mr.. Widemann
asserts that sin material point of view
these people are better off on Molokai
than most natives of these Islands, and
also better off, with few exceptions, than
they ever were in their own homes" A
''large number of kuleanas" with num-
erous good houses" had recently been
purchased to meet the wants of the in
creasing population. (Kuleanas are
small private pieces of land). Six thou
sand feet of water pipe had been laid
"Mr. w. P. Ragsdale who some months
ago gave remarkable example of self
sacrifice in going of his own accord tt
Molokai, is the present superintendent
of the asylum. A more active and eff
cient man could hardly be found" The
lepers 'have been made in all respect
as comfortable as possible" And al
this was before Father Damien had gon
to the settlement.

Following are the returns of the Col
lector-General of Customs, showing the
exports of the principal products for the
second quarter, and also for the first half
of the current year. During the past
six months there has been very large
increase in theexports of Hawaiian pro-
ducts-especially in sugar, tallow, coffee,
and bananas. On the other hand, there
has been considerable decrease in rice
and also in WOOL but the decrease on
the former, which is nearly one-third,
may be accounted for from much larger

FATHER DAMIEN AND MOLOKAI.

The American and English news
papers are strong in their laudations
of Father Damien's heroic work on
Molokai; but unfortunately, they
fall into the error of throwing blame
upon the Hawaiian Government, re-
garding the lepers, in proportion to
the laudation which the late Father
Damien has received. To the majority
of persons abroad, who have never
visited the Hawaiian Islands and
have no correct idea of what kind Of
governing power exists on these Isl
ands, the mistake into which the
foreign press has fallen is very
natural one; but, at the same time,
as far from the truth as remarks
upon the subject can we'll reach.
No one desires to lessen the praise
which is given to the humane and
good Father Damien; but the blame
which has been wrongly given to
successive Hawaiian Governments,
in connection with the leper settle
ment at Molokai, should, in justice
to this kingdom, be removed as much
as is yet possible. Lies and scandal
travel much faster than truth; but.
although the race in this way may
be unequal, yet the truth may reach
where it can do the most good.
The Friend for July comes to the
rescue; and we cannot do better than
extract from its columns the follow
ing paragraphs in recruitment of the
charges to which we refer. The
Friend in an able editorial article
says:
We had expected to remain silent
and not to demur at what we believed to
be excessive estimates of Father
Damien's usefulness and heroism. The
necessity of now abandoning this silence
arises from a food of injurious misstate-
ments which have been wrought into the
undiscriminating encomiums upon the
"martyr-priest." \ X A chief source
of the misstatements seems to have been
an article in Longman's Magazine, signed
Arthur Ballantyne. The character of
this article is indicated by the exagger-
ated strain of it's opening sentence
