The Best In Every Respect.

If there is better-equipped line of
railway in the world than the Chicago,
Milwaukee & St. Paul, this scribe is
not aware of it. Its equipment is of
the latest and most substantial makes,
and has every appliance that can be
secured to insure the safety of passen-
gers. Its sleeping cars are as fresh
looking as if just turned out of the
shops, and are fitted with electric call
bells and lights. in every berth. This
feature alone, the patent OF which is
the property Of the company, places
its parlor and sleeping car service far
in advance of other lines.
Its accommodations for second.
class passengers are also unexcelled, il
equaled; since no difference whatever
is made between first and second class
passengers, the coaches being tie
same for both classes.
The freight service is also prompt,
safe, and reliable; while the shipper
is treated fairly and, in every case,
his goods are carried at the lowest
rates.
The fact is that the Chicago, Mil
waukee 4 St. Paul has for years aim.
ed to become the popular line in the
West; and its excellent service has
secured it that distinction.
Travellers and shippers should there.
fore insist upon pat'onizing the Chi,
Mil, & St. Paul.

living. This statement is certainly
very discouraglng, and it is no
wonder that the honorable noble
was in favor of passing the item as
in the bill.
We believe ourselves that it
would have been an excellent plan
to refer the matter to committee,
to canvass it thoroughly. This
country is perishing for the want
of small farmers, and if the Legis-
latme can do anything to supply
them. it will earn and receive the
general gratitude. The population
of these Islands tends constantly to
resolve itself INTO two classes,
planters and Coolies, with nothing
between, and this tendency, if not
checked, is sure toprove disastrous.
The time of the Legislature costs
the country about hundred dol
lars an hour. 1t is worth perhaps
ten dollars, 1t might be worth
thousand if that body would recog-
nize the urgency of our great needs
and devote all the energy, fidelity
and intelligence which it possesses
to providing for them, ceasing to
waste invaluable hours over the
endless discussion of frivolous bulls
and resolutions.
There never was legislative
body which lived up to this high
standard, and it would be unreason-
able to expect ours to differ from
all the legislatures that ever were
since the foundation of the world
We believe however that our own
has intelligence enough, patriotism
enough and sense enough of the
real needs of the country, to be
able to make long stride towards
solving some, at any rate. of our
vexing problems. The session is
far advanced, but still a long way
from its close, and we believe that
it is not too late to do something.
The House, without reconsidering
its action of Friday, can appoint a
committee to inquire what steps, if
any, can be taken, to put the agrl-
cultural interests of the country on
a footing more conducive to social
health and stability and more in
consonance with the interests and
requirements of civilization.

TIE saying Blood is thicker

confirmation Tuesday in the
House. All the HOrners voted not

from Lahaina to WaiIuku, although
mutatis mutandis, everything which
Noble Horner had said only 3 half
hour before might have been APP
piled against his vote in the second

1t Is interesting to contrast this
conduct with that of Mobiles Berger
and Widemann, who voted with
amusing obyIousness on opposite
sides Of the same question, until
Noble Widemann for some inscrut-
able reason-Perhaps panied by
this shadow Of 4 family difference
changed his vote and put him
self on record against measure
which he urgently advocated but q
few weeks ago. We cannot help

KAPIOLANI PARK.

A report has lately been issued
by Mr.. W. VI. Giffard. Secretary of
the KapioIani Park Association,
relative to the progress made in
improving the park and the neces-
sites for the future. This fine
place of resort is in one sense a
Government work, and should be
under the guardianship Of the Leg
stature, which alone can provide
for its improvement from year to
year, and which it is hoped will do
so on a liberal basis. The report
says that if the funds can be OBJ
tanned, it is the purpose of the
management to beautify this
charming spot by making new
avenues and affording additional
attractions for the public.
Amongst the latter might also
be mentioned the building of an
aviary and the importation of
birds, etc, for stocking same; the
stocking of the ponds and bitches
with varieties of fish; also the con-
struction of a pond for waterfowl
and web-footed birds, OF which lat
ter there are now two or three
varieties which have already been
imported The building of grot-
toes and rustic seats, etc, distri-
buted over the park and its envi-
rons would also assist in making
this place additionally attractive to
the public

by the executive to secure Diamond

GOVERNMENT NURSERIES.

There was a lively discussion in
the House Friday, which was oc-
casioned by the item of ten thous-
and dollars III the Appropriation
Bill for Government nurseries. I'm
fortunately it resulted in nothing,
the item being finally passed as in
the bill Nearly half the Leg
isiature wished the item to be re-
ferred to special committee, to
see whether the system of starting
and distributing valuable plants,
now pursued by the Government,
could not be very widely extended
and carried out On a much larger
scale 1t was shown that the de-
velopment of homestead lands and
in general the creation of small
farming class, depended largely on
the Government increasing its ac-
tivity in this direction. Noble ].
II. HOrner showed how useful such
a system would be in regard to the
single item of coffee alone, if those
who are now planting in his dis
trict could obtain healthy plants
which had been properly started.
On the other hand, facts were
stated TO show that homesteaders
and others do not make any ade-
quate use of the opportunities al
ready at their command, so that
any further expenditure of money
and effort on the part of the Gov
eminent would be wasted, as out
running the demand. Noble Bur-
chardt stated that of a Thousand
Eucalyptus trees which he had
personally distributed to natives,
not much more than dozen were

TIE Special Committee to which
he Hamakua Railroad Bill was
referred have reported unanimous
" in favor of rejecting the bill.
The only reason assigned was that
The present occasion is not favor
able one for initiating such an en-
terprise. The report does not
specify in what particular the pres
ant time is unfavOrable. Perhaps
the committee are laboring under
some delusion as to what age of
the world we are really living IN
or perhaps the committee are liv-
ing in 3 different age from the rest
OF Us. This seems as probable a
conjecture as any.

THE CABLE BILL.

The opposition which has been
raised in some quarters TO the
bill granting an extension OF
time to the Hawaiian Pacific Cable
Company seems to be totally un-
founded. 1t proceeds chiefly from
Rep. Kalua and Noble Widemann.
The first thinks the company
should furnish guarantee that
they will finish the work within
the prescribed time. The second
objects to the proposed extension
because forsooth, the subsidy ask
ed for is not large enough
As TO the first point the answer
is simple. The company does fur
nish 4 very substantial guaran-
tee, viz, the forfeiture not only of
the subsidy but of all their lines,
etc, already erected. \ more sub
stantial guarantee it would not be
reasonable to demand. And this is
amply sufficient.
TIE second objection does not
need answering. Was ever any
thing heard of more ridiculous than
to refuse the company what it asks
because 1t does not ask for more
because it is not greedy enough. II
these be the rewards of modesty,
that virtue is likely to become Il
scarce commodity.
Our space does not permit US to
enter into the merits of the bill at
any length. Fortunately, the case
for the cable company can be put
in a nutshell. And it is this:
The Hawaiian Pacific Cable Com
pany, encouraged by the promise
of an exclusive franchise and a very
modest subsidy, has contracted to
construct a cable connecting the
principal islands of the group. The
company has organized, gone en-
ergeticaIly to work = erected a
great many miles of land lines and
spent $4,000 or s40,000-more. in
short, than the whole subsidy en-
gagged for Unfortunately, owing
to the defective quality of cable
with which the company has been
experimenting, the submarine lines
have not been laid within the con-
tract time. The company ask for
an extension of time.
We think it is very clear that
they ought to have it. We think
in the absence of fraud or bad
faith, it is not too much to say that
they are morally entitled TO it. If
they had been beneticiaries of the
Government the case would be very
different. But the boot is on the
other leg; it is the Government, ac-
cording to Noble Widemann's
showing, which is the beneficiary
If the extension of time is denied
we shall doubtless have another
company, not so scandalously mod
est as this one, asking for 100000
subsidy.
This is a case where fair play
will prove a jewel indeed. All that
the cable company ask is fair play.
In giving it, the Legislature may
save the country $4,000.

TIE House finished the order of

quite 3 number of bills. The coffee
Bill was passed with some discus
sion. but without any dissenting
voice. although it is a very ques-
tionabIe measure. The bill pro-
viding additional facilities for
homesteads was also passed to en-
grossment after a long debate. The
opposition measure came almost
entirely from the Hawaiians, al
though the bill was intended simply

tine by Robert Wilcox, who moved
the indefinite postpOnement Of the
bill.
The absurd notion was started
that the bill was an expedient OF
rich land owners to induce the
Government to sell their lands for
them. Would it were so As
every one knows the rich land
owners Of this country are very
, ayerse to parting with their lands,
TO the great detriment Of the gen.
eral interest. If the bill really
were what Rep. Robt. Wilcox
vainly imagines it to be, it would
promise even more benefit to the
country than ar present

Is offensive to the public in more
respects than one. 1t could then

". which may be called an initia-
tory step in insanity. The asylum
has been well cared for during the
past two years, and some of the
patients have decidedly improved,
which is owing in large measure
70 the personal interest taken in all
the unfortunate inmates by the
present medical superintendent,
who governs his patients by secur-
ing their goodwill and love, rather
than by forced obedience, and We
trust IL will be continued under his
