Western Journalism.

We have been in town only ten davs,
md already our warm friends, Splog
Magin, the veteran mixer of the.whole-
in-the.dark saloon, intimates that it is
time for us TO whack up and give our
score on his books n blight. We would
like to inquire il this is the usual prac.
tice in this community? We have done
the-whole-in-thc dark honor TO imbibe
at its bar the greater portion Of the
elixir that we have all orbrd since our
arrival. 1t requires inspiration to fit
one to illuminate and enlighten COM
munity; if Splog Magin hesitate, to
supply the inspiring elixir, we shall
either transfer our patronage and satu-
rate our system elsewhere, or we
shall decline TO illuminate and en-
Tighten the community. We certainly
will not submit to being bulldozed by
Mr. Splog Magin's duns or even an
noyed by his hints. We are destitute
of wealth; but we are hcelcd with gilt
edged dignity, and we will maiLtain
our dignity un'arnished. Kent Id.

Men without Names.

In work upon the prisons of Siberia,
Nj. Edgar Boulangicr, French engi-
neer, who spent long time in the SER
vice of the Irans-Caspian Railway, de.
scrlbes n strange class of beings in that
country. They are the men who do not
know who they are.
No doubt many Of these men merely
assume this ignorance, in order TO mys-
tlfy the officials. but their identity is in
many cases totally unknown to the au-
thorties and all their acquaintances.
The prison of AlcXandroysk, NJ.
Boulangier says, contains several OF
these singular people. Now and then,
driven by hunger, vagabond comes
to the prison door and asks to be
taken in.
If have come to deliver myself up"
says the vagabond.
For what reason? Who are you?"
Il don't know"
"Don't know? What's your name ?"
81 have forgotten it; it was so long
>eo.
where is your passport ?"
81 have none
"Then you are brodidgd-a vaga,
bond; yon have escaped from prison.
What crime were you in for?"
81 have forgotten"
Nothing more definite can be got cut
OF him. Sometimes these vagabond
exiles accuse themselves of crimes that
they have not committed, in order to
make interesting journeys at the ex-
pense OF the government, Frequently
their imposture is detected after they
have been transported long distances,
but who they really are the authorities
seldom ascertain They are kept under
surveillance, aud M. Boulangier is of
opinion that they sometimes really for
get what their names are.

CHUNG wAA.

In the case of Chung Waa, a
naturalized Hawaiian subject, VS..
The Minister of Foreign Affairs, the
Chief Justice has rendered a deci-
sion in favor Of the petitioner. The
question tested was simply whether
it was within the power of the Leg
islature to limit the liberty of any
class OF subjects in a manner un-
known to the laws. The Court de-
cides that it cannot, and following
the American cases declares that the
right of free admission and locomo-
ton can only be denied in case of
crime.
The decision is highly interesting
and settles an important point OF
constitutional law now raised for the
first time. It does not affect in any.
way the general validity of the sta
tutes restricting Chinese immigra
ton.

profit. A moderate increase would
undoubtedly do so-and there Is no
reason to apprehend that more than
a moderate increase will be charged.
The stockholders would not be a
foreign corporation, settled down on
us for purposes of pillage, but are
our own fellowcitizens
The evils of competition are great
enough at best. It is astonishing
that decent people should be SO ready
to turn the business rivalry into
cut-throat process. Two ice com
panies where there should be one
two telephone companies where 6
second is superfuous-is not this ar
exaggeration even of Hobbies war Of
all against all?

TWO TELEPHONE COMPANIES.

The curse of having two telephone
companies where only one is needed,
IS something which is pretty keenly
felt in Honolulu.
The conspicuous lack of dividend
is, we believe, feature COM
mon to the financial reports of both
companies, and makes them yearn
even more than the public for the
blessings of peace and harmony. All
attempts, however, at any compro-
mise have hitherto failed, SCATTERING
on the greed unreasonableness or
stubbornness of somebody.
Some may suppose that having
two companies is a benefit, because it
keeps down rates. tits; however, a
benefit by which few profit, in
order that many may suffer. In the
first place all the stockholders of
both companies are victims. Then
too all those numerous individuals
are sacrificed whose business inter
ests or other necessities compel
them to subscribe to both telephones
Finally all the subscribers are dam
aged, because they might get the
benefit of telephone with much
larger list of subscribers.
Doubtless, consolidation of the
two companies would result in some
increase in the rates of subscription
This is not merely a perfectly ma
tural result, but a very fair one
The rates now ruling are ridiculousl,
low-lower, we believe, than any
where else, and far lower than thos,
which generally obtain in the Amer
lean cities,while prices which are nov
charged cannot possibly insure

THREE JUDICIAL DECISIONS.
In the Supreme Court Of the Hawaiian
Islands. March 26, 1890.

In the Supreme Court of the Hawaiian
Islands. March IS, 1890.
Mrs. Eliza Macfarlance VS.. E. H. F.
VOTERS. Specific performance. In equity.
The bill AYERS that on the 23d December,
1889, the plaintiff caused to be sold at
public auction by j F. Morgan, auction
eer, certain premises, corner OF King and
Alakea streets, Honolulu. That the said
premises were sold to defendant on his
bid for s. $50 subject to certain lease
to G.. F. Hoyt, unexplred. That petit
toner has rendered a deed of said pre-
misses to said defendant and that defend
ant wholly refuses to accept said deed or
to pay said purchase price.
The bill prays that said defendant may
be decreed to specifically carry out his
said agreement of purchase, and to pay
to the petitioner said purchase money.
The answer denies all the allegations
in the plaintiffs bill of complaint, and
states that five days before the sale
Morgan, the autioneer, informed defend
ant that said premises had no manner OF
form of encumbrance upon Or against
them. That defendant bid s. $50 on said
property, believing it was entirely uneli'
numbered. That the first intimation de-
| PENDANT had of the existence OF said lease
was from J. A. Magoon on the afternoon
of the day of sale. That the next day be
called on the autioneer and told him he
understood he was bidding on unencum
bered property and refused to pay for the
property on the ground of the existing
lease, and offered to pay the sum bid by
him, So, $50, if the same should be con
veyed to him without encumbrance, etc
Mr.. Justice Bickerton in his decision
states that the evidence of w. 0. Smith
j. A. Magoon, Captain Cluney, James +
Morgan, F w. Macfarlane, E G. Macfar
lane and H. Armitage, who were present
at the auction sale of said premises
| clearly proves to his satisfaction thai
Morgan, the auctioneer, before asking TO-
bids, stated that there was an unexplfe(
lease on the premises and gave all par
ticulars as to rent, unexpired term, etc
The record of the sale made at the time
also shows that the property was solo
subject to said lease. The decision con
cludes as follows: 81 have come to TIT
conclusion that if there was any mistake
it was attributable solely to the want o
diligence on the part Of the defendant
and that he had every means Of know
ledge of the existence of the unexpiret
lease. 1 think the plaintiff is entitled t.
specific performance and decree will b.
signed accordingly when presented
F. NJ. Hatch for plaintiff; Wv. Ashfor'
for defendant.
