The Hawaii Ticket For Mobiles.

Mr.. EDITOR: In your editorial of the
9TH inst, speaking of the Hawaiian
ticket for Mobiles, you say "the ticket
needs some revising in order to make il
truly representative, and also more in
harmony with the wishes OF the various
DISTRICTS
This exactly expresses the feelings of
the majority of the Kohala electors, and
explains their opposition to it, as con-
stituted by the Hilo convention.
The Kohala electors made up their
local ticket from such names as were
brought to their notice. They did not
expect their ticket to be accepted in its
entirety by the Hilo convention, and
had the Hiloites put forward one or two
of their local men they would no doubt
have given in their adherence but when
they found their local champion, Mr.. E
A Burchardt, thrown over, not for a Hilo
man but another Kohala man whom
they had SO empbatically refused place
on their ticket, and of whose fitness they
had the best opportunities of judging, as
he had already represented them in two
Legislatures, 1t can hardly be expected
that they would acquiesce in the ar
rangements Of the Hiio convention.
The result is that, in this district at
least, general feeling now prevails in
favor OF the revised ticket. BETA.

factions VS.. Utterances."

Mr.. EDITOR: In an article entitled
factions versus Utterances" the Bull
letin asks, "Whv all these accusations
and insinuations of wrong doing, bad
character and evil intention against the
men on the National Reform ticket,
with which the public have been bored,
etc. ?" As the question seems to be seri-
ously asked it deserves a serious answer,
which is of the simplest; because we
know the character and records of some
of these candidates little too well; be-
cause, while no one assumes that all
National Reformers" are corrupt men,
we do know that almost every man in
the country who was the friend and
hacker OF corruption and fraud, is to-day
the friend and hacker of the Opposition,
and that it Is their help that will win
the fight for the Opposition, if it is won
at all. Is not this enough? 1t is for the
writer. The fruit is no better than the
root and the soil make it, and one upright
man or dozen will not counteract the
underlying sentiment of party.
The flag that fles at the top of the
mast may be a gay one, but the rotten
craft that carries it is OF more impor.

The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1890-01-17

THE case OF the Hawaiian Government
versus Cornwell, to which one OF our
correspondents referred few days ago,
has just been finally decided by the
Supreme Court in banco. The record
shows that in 1888 Mr.. Bush, the then
Minister of the Interior, leased a large
tract OF land on Maui, aggregating more
than 1000 acres, to Her Majesty the
Queen, privately, for 800 year. The
land was subsequently, sub-let to MIR.
Cornwell for about 500, the Queen
making also certain reservations. This
transaction was a wanton violation OF the
law, as of course Mr.. Bush perfectly well
knew. This lease it is which the Gov
eminent, wishing to cut the land up fol
homestead lots, has just taken steps tc
have set aside, and which has been SET
aside by the judgment Of the full court
Mr.. Bush, as every one knows, is the
poor mans friend, and it was doubtless
in this capacity that he was acting when
he made this lease. Mechanics of ev.
cry political party will be likely, We
think, to consider these facts before they
vote for Mr.. Bush or for the candidates
of the party which has the political cyni
cism to nominate and support him.

"Principles, Not Men,

Mr.. EDITOR: Will you kindly allow me
space for comment on your leader of
January 9TH, headed principals, not
men,"
My contention is that the Hilo COM
mittee have shown just that personal
feeling which you deprecate, in dropping
their own platform and adopting the
Ministerial policy without any of the
comment that their local knowledge
might have suggested 1t is case of
supporting men at the expense, not SO
much OF principles, as of our material
wants. do not think anyone would
quarrel with the principles of the Minis
terial declaration OF policy, and it goes as
fully into detail as such document need
go; it cannot fairly be expected to deal
with every interest of every district and
island in the group. But it is precisely
from criticism of that policy that Minis
tiers can obtain information as to our
wants. And if personal or party feeling
prompts any political body or any candi-
date to neglect such criticism, and the
Ministers fail to realize what our wants
are, we shall fail to obtain the practical
reforms we require. The Ministers say
they will spend money on roads, for in
stance, and it is quite right that they
should; but the last Legislature wasted
money on a useless path in the koha'a
gulches, and we are still without rea-
sonably safe bride path to Waimea and
kona. We do not want the money spent
bot ft,x, L.. II -
have that if we can afford it but at least let
us have better inter-island and overland
mails. Are the Hilo committee really
satisfied with a ten-day mail? And if
| not, why don't they say so? Then there
Is the loan: which should be SO issued
as to give small investors chance OF
subscribing; and in view of the loan, l
| think some statement of the proposed
taxation would be in order.
We have other wants, to. Police pro-
lection, which is inefficient and always
will be, so long as constables are paid
less than ploughman's wages. And
there is the fishery question, and the
treatment OF suspected lepers; the latter
may be all right, but from my own OBJ
servation, doubt if it is.
| give the Ministers credit for desire
to do their best for us, and have moth.
ing to say against their principles as Sci
forth in their declaration. But con.
tend that principles nave not yet secured
us the practical reforms we want; anG
that they never will, SO long as the sys'
tenn prevails of treating the statement Of
our wants as mere frivolous detail, OF
even as an attack upon the Ministers
And it is against the attempt of the Hilo

MIR. Marques Not a Fool.

Mr.. EDITOR: Many thanks for the
compliments with which you kindly pre-
faced the thrust you have considered
good policy to publish against me in
your issue of yesterday. You want me
to be honest. | do not need your bjur-
CATION in that respect, as my past record
in this country can show, but do hope
you will yourself give me good exam
Pile, by publishing this answer of mine,
otherwise l might say about your own
honesty what the Bible says of people
who see straws in their neighbours eyes.
Your accusation of "clap-trap and fool
ishness''-{rather big words for a start,
don't exhaust your ammunitions too
soon !)-is based on decided misnter-
probation of my challenge to Mr.. Con
salves. This misinterpretation is either
quite inadvertent or caused by blindness
through partizan passion at any rate,
it necesstates refutatlOn, as you would
otherwise make your readers believe that
| mix up two very different elements,
viz. the present administration and the
group OF men who constitute the party
back of them, the so-called EMISSION
ary' Reform party, which you defend
with talent worthy of better cause.
Now, | carefully make difference be-
tween the two and, in my challenge,
allude exclusively to the political party,
not TO the men of the Government who
do not make the electoral nominations.
You know as we'll as do, that the
present political fight is not against the
personality OF the present Ministers,
but against the tenebrous wire pullers
whose tyranny the Ministers themselves
have often felt; for example, ask Mr.
Thufston or Mr.. Damon: they are both
personally liberal and impartial, but
have they not eXperienced-and bitterly
too-that the men behind the curtains
who want to rule them and US, are quite
the reverse?
Now, the party who have nominated
Mr.. Gonsalves are the same men or
clique who have been trying to rule be-
hind and over the administration, and
who have constantly been hampering
the present Ministers in their most
liberal intentions. Thus, when forced
by the pressure of public opinion to pro-
claim an anti-Chinese policy, the Min
listers had to fight their own supporters,
and you cannot deny that the party at
their back still cling in their hearts to
their prO-Chinese tendencies; as a proof
of this, please do not conveniently forget
how and by whom and through whose
influence it happened that the peoples
anti-Chinese bill was defeated in the last
Legislature, and also, how and by whom
was squelched the recent proposition OF
an extra session against Chinese en-
croachments. In this respect, must be
allowed the claim of knowing something
about the sentiments OF your party, as |
started the first Anti-Asiatic Union,
which was ostracized by the admins
tration, and on account OF which | was
ridiculed, called crank and idiot by

those very same men who, to-day, CO.
cree my friend Mr.. Gonsalves into OPP
posing me, much against his wish, be-
cause they expect to find him more plia-
bic than myself to their secret wishes.
As TO whether the party you defend
did govern the country "well'' or not, l
might ask you ii it is good government
to try to do away with the country s
independence; but l shall simply refer
you to what our aus.ere and upright
Auditor-General may think of the ma
ture of the reform administration.
All this, however, is already more
than enough to answer your call on my
honesty, as the other arguments YOU
adduce against me are not worth motto.
ing, and, for the future, do cordially
advise you to be more cautious as to the
basis and foundation OF the attacks YOU
may choose to direct against my humble
| personality. A. MARQUES.

per cent. 1t thus appears very clearly
that the property qualification is by no
means the unjust disfranchisement OF
native Hawaiians which it has been
represented to be, but that on the con-
trary they still cast nearly twice as many
votes for Mobiles as any other nation
atty. We think the figures amount to a
full justification OF the present provision
of the constitution, and show how un-
wise it would be at the present juncture
to attempt any modification OF the funda-
mental law on this point.
