The Multi Rifle Club.

Mr.. EDITOR: Having noticed in the
ADVERTISERS issue OF the 10Th the criti-
cisms on my remarks concerning the
Multi Rife Club, in connection with
their shooting match on New Years
day, l beg to say that l intended only to
state facts, as they had been obtained
from sources that were considered reli-
able, and which corroborated a previ-
ously existing understanding that the
Multi and Kohala Plantation clubs were
two separate affairs.
The ''unfairness on the face" OF the
challenge, consisted OF course, in that
case, in the fact OF a challenge issuing
from team composed of men selected
from two different clubs, 10 another
club supposed to be OF about equal
strength to the one first named. Ii my
statements were erroneous, they natur-
ally stand corrected. All we want are
facts. =. =.

Nh. MARQUES comes rather lameIy out
of his controversy with Mr.. Gonsalves.
We have ourselves no quarrel with MI
Marques, and perhaps our late aliuslon
to his challenge to Mr.. Gonsalves was
unnecessarily severe. We had intended
replying to Mr.. Marques communion
ton in our own columns, but MIR. Con-
salves' reply in the Bulletin rendered
any further remarks on our part entirely
superhuous. Beyond single witticism
at his opponents expense, Mr.. Mar
ques' answer contains nothing which
could by the most polite extenuation, be
called reply. This is by no means due
to any want of intellectual ingenuity on
the part of Mr.. MARQUES, but simply to
the fact that he is on the weak side, on
side so weak indeed, that no answer
of any plausibility whatever could pos
sibly be given. We firmly believe that
Mr.. Marques feels the embarrassing
weakness of his position quite as much
as we can for him; that he feels how
useless it is to decry the Reform party
as sugar party, when he is associated
as a candidate with a number OF the
most prominent sugar owners OF the
group; how Intellectual such charge
must be when side by side with him on
the same ticket, is that old pro-Chinese
politician, Bush. Mr.. Marques is in
opposition to the very political party
which created his constituency, which
gave him political Importance. He has
Joined hands with a party which depends
for its success upon the support OF the
worst elements in the country, as indeed
he very we'll knows. Mr.. Marques is in
bad company, and we are heartily sorry
for it.

nose OF favoring the planter, it was put
mn at auction and purchased by the
planter because his pocket was longer
than the "poor natives"
The facts are
LIST. That the piece Of land in question,
Kulaimano, containing an area Of SAT
acres, has for ten years been under lease
to the Pepeekeo plantation, for $3.50 per
annum.
I'd. That although the old lease ex-
pired last June neither the poor natives
nor anv one else, other than the planta-
ton, applied for it for any purpose.
Sd. That there has been and now is
unoccupied Government land in this
vicinity in Hilo, suitable for homesteads.

II. A personal canvas by the local home
stead agent, in the vicinity, failed to find
any one who wanted lots other than
those now available. Two pieces OF land

and the other sos acres OF good land
have been cut up into fifty-four lots and
offered as homesteads, of which twenty
eight lots are still untaken.
not for the public interest to let the land
lie idle, when an upset rental of 81 800
was offered, which at the sale was in
creased to $3.50.
9Th. What the object of the 'poor
natives" was in running the lease up so
high, l do not know, but / can draw my
own conclusions from the fact that upon
the same trip to Honolulu they "bluffed"
another party into paying them 500 by
threatening to run up the rent OF another
piece of land, which he needed, with
which snug little sum they returned to
Hilo.
Mr.. Bush finally states that the Gov
eminent has made private renewals of
leases OF Kapiolani Park lots by which
"acts OF collision the Government has
lost thousands of dollars"
The fact is that the park lots are
Crown lands, and not Government lands.
''The Government has nothing TO do
with the leasing or revenues OF the
Crown lands. What arrangement the
Crown Land Commissioners have made

Poor Diogenes! With his little candle
in hand he has been moving among
men until he finds no honesty, no integ-
rity, no fairness, except in his own little
self. He thinks himself righteous alto
gether. He is pledged to neither sect
nor party" He works ''for the benefit
of ALL" His hands rise in holy horror
when man in open public meeting
names his man and bluntly tells what
he thinks about him. This is an eyre
gious sin. His way is quite different
He does not mention names. He does
not put his charges in such form that
they can be met. He only insinuates
that "ugly stories are being whispered
about town 3" Naturally, living in a
tub, he is familiar with what flows in
the gutter His conception OF honor,
newspaper righteousness, permits him
to use a stiletto in the dark, not caring
whether it stab with suspicion one man
or dozen. He enjoys putting a dam
aging Impeachment in vague form so
that the public on the street corners say,
Is it Brown? Is it Smith? Is it Jones?
Poor Diogenes! He thinks this is
honorable Padding in the gutter, he
even dreams that he is above the moral
level OF the community, not appearing
to know that he is sailing along in the
sewage He can lean affectionately over
a saIoon-counter and imagine that mis-
opponents are placing sums of money
with saloon-keepers to be extended in
treating the boys" To be sure, he
doesn't definitely say SO He mentions
no names. He wouldn't be surprised
to hear" it; that's all And he expects
to hear it where men OF such inflexible
integrity and purity Of motive as himself
should not be seen.
religion, education and other TO be
supposed '(hic) refining influences have
failed to make any impression upon the
goody-goody people of the Reform party"
but with him and his worthy compan-
ions these blessed agencies have wrought
a marvellous integrity and a peculiar
sense of honor.
Poor DiogenesI How utterly lonely
he is in his integrity! Such civic virtue
has rarely been witnessed in the annals
of political history His political con-
science allows him to decry personalities
with one breath and with the next to
convict a man on street rumor without
trying to prove his guilt 1t is easier to
say man took bribe OF 500 than it is
to produce the affidavits that he did
Ordinary men would have qualms of
conscience and desist from such public
charges arrayed in anonymous security
But Diogenes naturally does such things.
He sees no dishonor in it He chuckles
that he can do what other men shrink
from. Poor Diogenes! How lonesome
he must be in his sense Of honor

A Trip on the RAILWAY.

Forty-four of the Alameda's passengers
were much gratified at receiving an in
vitation from the enterprising President
of the Oahu Railway, Mr.. B. F. Dilling-
ham, who was their fellow-passenger to
take trip over the line as far as COM
pleted, to EVA. The train left Honolulu
yesterday afternoon at o'clock, return
ing at 3. The points OF interest were
explained by the conductor, and an
opinion was expressed that this line
would conduce to the comfort and wealth
of the community, and reflected great
credit on its promoter. Owing to pres
sure of business Mr.. Dillingham; was IN
able to accompany the party.
