What shall Thomas have to do with us2 and
we with him2
THE DoUBrER rs WITH Us.


Why, assuredly, ii the example Of the
old time is to be followed, Thomas will con-
tlnue In our company, and we will be glad to
have him with us. His unbeiief will not
hinder his association with US, nor will
our faith forbid him. Thomas did stay
away once. And that time he missed some
thing. The next Sunday he was in his
place, and the revelation came to him. The
best thing that Thomas can do to-day is to
come to church. He does not believe the
very central truth o; Christianity. He is a
hereto, he Is skeptic, he is an ''infdel,"
1t anybody chooses to insist upon accurate
Language. Well does he know that he is
right. Has he got then quite to the end of
it, and made the supreme discovery? Is he
sure that the creed OF the ages is lie? Has
he shut his mind against the entering In oil
any possible new light and truth? Has he
stopped thinking? Is he completely and
serenely satisfied?
A man who hears one side for six days,
as some men do, ought to give the other
side one days hearing out the seven. An
honest man owes that to himself
1t ought to be understood that the church
is not an ecclesiastical club, within whose
doors only they may come who are perfectly
congenial with all the others. 1t ought to
be understood that the act OF attendance at
the services of the church does not commit
man to declaration of per ect accord with
the church in all respects.

A letter from Mr.. w. II. Castle
to the Labor Convention, published
in the Advertiser of the 27th in
stant, contains a bit of interesting
information hitherto not generally
known. He says, eff we" (Oahu
Railway and Land Co.. "can also
obtain certain concessions, which
we propose to ask of the next Legis-
lature, we shall then 90 ahead and
build q railway from Hilo to Hama
kua," etc. Mr.. Castle does not in
innate the nature or extent of the
concessions to be asked, nor was the
labor convention meeting the time
or occasion to do so. The proposed
railway scheme alluded to is the
same as was projected by the late
S. G.. Wilder. Any reasonable con-
cessions that may be asked of the
Legislature will probably be granted
by that body, and it is to be ear
nestly hoped that the railway will b'
constructed.

The Fire Marshal had combat
with miniature fire on Merchant
street yesterday, in which he con-
quered. The fire was in box OF
rubbish which had been placed on
the sidewalk for removal. Evidence
goes to show that the lighted stump
of cigar or cigarette had been
thrown into the rubbish box. The
Fire Marshal Glanced to be passing
at the time that the result began to
appear in the form Of smoke and
flames, and by timely exertions pre-
vented possible serious consequences.
Let this little occurrence teach
smokers that it is not safe to throw
lighted cigar or cigarette ends into
innammable substances either on
the streets or anywhere else. At
the same time it may be suggested
that rubbish containers are in the
habit of occupying too much OF the
sidewalks for too long periods

In connection with the Supreme
Court decision in the case of Chung
Waa, the following extract from the
"Sydney Morning Herald's' tele-
graphic correspondence of January
A, 1890, may be interesting: "a
family of three Chinese, the father,
mother, and little girl, arrived by
the SIS. Changsha in the bay yester-
day evening. According to the
Chinese Exclusion Act no ship is
allowed to bring more than one Chi
nese for every 500 tons register. In
admitting this family the Act has
not been violated, as the registered
tonnage of the Changsha is l463.
The tide inspector at Williamstown
explains that the parents lived in
Victoria previously, and were natu-
ralised, and therefore would be ex-
empt."

POWER or A PLUGGED NICKEL.

A whole Curload Fascinated ana
Embarrassed bA an Outiawed
Coin.
A tall man with n dark moustathc
and imperial got into south-bound
Broadway car at Twenty-second
street, and took sea- about mid
way up the car. When the conduc-
tor came for his fare the man lished
nickel from his pocket. The con-
ductor looked at the coin sharply
and passed it back again.
What's the matter" asked the
man.
"Its plugged" said the con-
ductor.
The man put pair of eyeglasses
on his nose and critically surveyed
the nickel He found that the con-
ductor was correct, and handed him
a good nickel. lie was about to put
the bad one in his pocket, when he
noticed that every one in the car
was looking at him. He turned red,
hesitated, and finally dropped the
nickel slyly on the floor. Every one
saw him do it, but every one tried
to appear as if he didn't notice it.
The nickel lay on the floor in plain
sight, but no one would look at it.
All seemed to think that they would
appear as if they coveted it if
they did. Every one seemed quite
uncomfortable. Two or three men
tried to read, but they couldn't con-
centrate their attention on their
newspapers. The conductor passed
over the nickel once or twice, and
tried not to notice it.
At Fourteenth street man got
in and was about to sit down, when
he espied the nickel. He picked it
up and tried to hand it to an old
gentleman with red face and a
white mustache, saying: "Iou
dropped this, sir"
mo, l didn't" said the old gen.
tleman, with laugh.
Then everybody laughed, as il
greatly relieved. The man who had
picked up the nickel, looked closely
at it, turned bright crimson and
dropped it again. Everybody saw
him, but whichever way he looked
he saw only averted faces. The
people would glance slyly at hin
from the corners of their eyes
and then look away again very
, quickly. Again, no one looked a
the nickel, although every man there
knew to nicely just where it lay
1t staid in the same place on th'
floor until the car stopped just above
Chambers street. Here the conduc
tor told the passengers to take th'
next car, as that one was going t
switch off and 90 up town again
l As they left the car all the passen
r gers took a last glance at the plug
: gcd nickel, but no one touched it
, 1t started up town again and all tn
passengers went down town wit
that nickel weighing heavily on thei
l minds.

EQUITY DECISION.
Decree Ordered for specific Per-
fOrmnnce I'm Beckiey vs.. Lucas.

Judge Bickerton to-day filed his
decision in the case of Mary G.
Beckley VS.. George Lucas and
others, bill in equity for specific
performance. The principal defend
ant, as executor and trustee under
the will of Margaret Keegan, refused
to convey certain premises on Nuu-
anu street according to covenant
made by testator with her adopted
daughter, Mary Risely (the maiden
name of the plaintiff). One reason
of refusal was that complainant had
violated the covenant through dis
obedience and desertion. The Court
finds no evidence of this. Another
and the main point presented by de-
fendants' counsel was that the pre-
misses are not so fully and clearly
described as to enable the Court to
decree specific performance. The
description in the covenant, dated
September IL, 1871, is that of "a
| piece of land situated in Honolulu
and fronting upon Nuuanu street,
together with the cottage thereon
now in the occupation of MI
Smith,
There was evidence that Mr..
Smith who was engaged in the ice
business did live in cottage be-
longing to Mrs. Keegan. Robert
Grieye testified that Mrs. Keegar
told him that those premises were
mentioned in the adoption papers a'
the consideration, being the cottage
at the time of her death and nov
occupied by j. ii. Hare, Ih'
doctrine adopted by the Court is a
follows:
eff the description be sutllcien
to ascertain the estate intended II
be conveyed, although the estat
will not agree to some of the parti
culars, yet it shall pass by TIN
conveyance, that the intent of tn
parties may be effected"
His Honor concludes: "lt seem
to me that the description is sulli
cien,ly definite, and that the pro
perty intended and mentioned in tn
agreement is properly identified a
the property claimed and described
in the bill of complaint. The com
plainant is entitled to specific per
formance, and decree will b
signed accordingly on presentation.

TALK.
nuisance! !

A large amount of talk, some of
which has even found its way into
print, has been perpetrated in this
community during the last month or
two, which assumes that the country
is in a condition of great dearth of
material from which to construct
Ministerial Cabinets. Such asser-
tions and questions as these have
noated through the muggy air, and
are still agitating the political and
social atmosphere: "Thc present
Administration is the best the coun-
try ever had. No other Cabinet
could do so well. The Government
is clean, honest, and capable. What
other four men could fill the posi-
tions so well! If the Ministers were
to 90 out, who else could you put
in? Where are the men to ill their
| places?" etc.
Talk of this description may
merely represent the prejudiced but
sincere convictions of q few eX.
tremely narrow minds; or it may
also indicate the sentiments of q
few others whose self-interest and
pecuniary profit lie in that direction
or it may be all very wise and true.
At any rate, large proportion,
perhaps a large majority. of the
community regard all such talk as
mere idle words, as the passing wind
to which they pay no heed.
1t will undoubtedly be conceded
by all classes and all shades of po.
litical belief that this little kingdom
of eighty or ninety thousand soul:
does not swarm with Bismarcks
Beaconsiields, Cavours, Gladstones
and Websters, nor with Judds, Wy
lies, and Hutchinsons. Indeed, i
would be hard to find anyone out
side of the Insane Asylum willing tt
admit that either of these gentle
men, or the diplomatic counterpart
of either of them, is at the presen
time domiciled on the islands. Blu
there are scores not yet in the Luna
tic Asylum, nor likely to get there
who believe that all the brains ant
executive ability of the country, o
, even the best available of those com

quite common opinion that as goo

THE WARNER MATTER.

Our unesteemed morning contemporary
fairly rants and raves over the WARNER
registration matter. 1t INDUCES in the
blackguard terms with which it is so famil-
lar, 1t calls names, it squirms and it lies.
and all it can do it cannot explain away the
fact that its party has been caught in
crooked registrations In one line it saws
the late Mr.. WARNER had been here long
enough to acquire a residence emitting him
to vote, and says this in the face of its pub
LEGATION only two days before that the
gentleman came here from Colorado
only three months ago, the law re-
quiring a residence of six months be-
fore the party can register In another
line Mr.. WARNER is represented as saying
to the registration officer that he was not
entitled to be listed, having resided here
only few weeks. Our trapped and rabid
contemporary then asserts that the de-
ceased was not registered, that his oath is
not to be found at the commission rooms
and that This name does not appear on
the "of1icial list.n Then the lying organ
admits that the name is on the list fur
nished to the recorder by the registrar,

A PROPHETIC SPEECH.

LET the carpet Dagger, expelled finally
from every state in the American union
with the brand of disgrace stamped upon
his brow, lift up his head once more and
turn his face toward the setting sun. Utah
beckons him to new field of pillage and
fresh pastures of pilfering. Let him pack
his grip-sac and start. The Mormons
have no friends and no one will come for
ward to defend or protect their rights. A
returning board, from whose decisions
there is no appeal, sent out from the Amer
can Congress baptized with the spirit of
persecution and intolerance, will enter
Utah to trample beneath their feet the
rights of the people of that far-off and ILL
fated land Mr.. Speaker, would not place
dog under the dominion of set of carpet
baggers re-enforced by returning board,
unless meant to have him robbed of his
bone. A more grinding tyranny, more
absolute despotism was never established
over any people. "-Hon. John f. House, of
Tennessee, in the House of Representatives,

A LIBERAL LETTER.

| 1t is a terrible arraignment of the naan
ayers of the Liberia party which a member
of that party presentsIin this issue ef THE
HERALD. Liberals generally will read the
| letter and those Of them who are honest
and dare utter their true sentiments will
| lndorse and applaud every word that is
written. Those who are honest, but are
lacking in the courage to speak out, will
secretly congratulate the writer upon hav-
ing spread the facts before the public and
spoken words of truth to his party. The
adventurers and the dishonest fellows who
are here for plumber will denounce Lib
eral, - and proclaim him disgruntled and
disappointed ofice-seeker. THE HERALD
mas Tor many years known the writer
OF the letter. 1t has known him as a Lib
eral, and very prominent one, when some
OF those who are in control of the party
to-day were children, and others were lead
ing speculative and adventurous lives in
other states their thoughts never revert
ing towards Utah. He was a Liberal in in
FAINT days of the party, and has been an &C
tive and consistent Liberal ever since. And
more, we never heard of him as an office
eeohei, VI ds one aspiring TO any OF the
honors which his party could confer. He
has right to speak, and he comes to THE
HERALD to address his associates because
he knows his own party organ would re-
fuse him hearing, and give him abuse.
The letter is commended to all Liberals,
and especially to those who are truly in
ested in the welfare of the city. The latter
will find in the communication much food
for reflection.

PERTINENT QUERIES.

1t transpired that the name of person
ineligible to vote was on the registration
list, the list being certified to by the Of
ficer who made it as being ''true and cor
rect" 1t being shown that the person
registered had no right to vote, it was dis
covered that no evidence of his having
taken the required oath existed. and those
responsible for listing him unblushinglv
and imp identity charge the presence of
the name on the list to an ''inexplicable
mystery" How many more of such
mysteries are there in connection with
the registration istss How manv more
names are there on the lists for which
there is no corresponding oath? If THE
HERALD shall designate the names
OF other men who are not entitled
to vote, but who have been ;.eon-
larly listed, will we be told that
the men were not registered, that thew tool,
no oath, and that the appearance of their
names on the list is "mysterious'' and can
not be explained? If we shall prove bv
dates that gentlemen who have not been in
the territory six months have been listed.
will it be asserted that they never took the
oath and viii it be explained that the pres
ence of their names on the registration list
is simply uhaccountable to the registration
officers! These are queries to which we do
not expect answers, though we think it
proper enough to ask them.

" hos to Blane9

A law suit interesting to the members
of the medical profession, as well as to
apothecaries, is before the courts in
Montreal. A French Canadian practi-
toner, wishing to prescribe quinine for
a child, through absent mindedness
wrote upon his prescription bisuIphate
of morphine instead of bisulphate of
quinine. The paper was taken to an
apothecary, whose assistant, perceiving
an error at once, attempted a substitu-
ton, and made up the powders with sui
plate of morphine. The result was IA
tai. And now curiously complicated
question has to be settled by the Judges.
The father of the child has sued the doc
tor because it was through his absent.
mindedness that the child lost its life,
The doctor has sued the apothecary for
all the damages to which the fathers.
suit may put him. He pleads that he.
ordered bisulphate of morphine, and that
II such substance existed and if the
apothecary had sent it to the child he
would be responsible, but he never or
dered sulphate of morphine, and it was.
the sulphate of morphine that killed the,
child.-Philadelphi Ledger.
