ment to Section SO of the Constitution.
The amendment reduces the property
qualification for voters for mobiles from

Secretary Wilcox read a communica-
ton from the HAWAIIAN GAZETTE Com
PANY, stating that in response to call
by the Printing Committee they made a
bid to do the printing at the rate OF 81 50
per page, which was accepted, but that
since the first week in July no printing
had been rendered to the company, al
though this was a violation OF contract,
the bid of the GAZETTE Co. being lower
than any other
Rep. Lucas-That is something which
refers to the Printing Committee. l am
chairman OF that committee, and this is
the first time l ever heard of any con-
tract having been made with the
GAZETTE Co. Bills No. 10 to IA were
printed without any heading on the
outside, so | went to the company and
asked to have it done. The person III
charge said it would count page. The
person said he would rather not do it as
the company was losing money. l said
l didn't want the company to lose
money, so [ took it to the Elele, who
were glad to do it for 81 IS per page.

Regulation No. 4.

Regulation No. 1.
In accordance with an Act Relating to
the Suppression of Plant Diseases, BIlghts
and Insect Pests" approved on the 10th
day of July, 1890, the shipping, sending or
taxing of any plants, slips or cuttings from
the Island of Oahu to any of the other
Islands of this Kingdom is hereby prohib-
tied until further notice.
Exempt from this regulation are plants
from foreign countries landed at the port
OF Honolulu in transit, provided that up
70 the time of reshipment they have not
left the wharf of Honolulu and have been
duly examined.

ferred to a 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 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 &C
tivity in this direction. Noble j.
NJ. 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 thousand
Eucalyptus trees which he had
personally distributed to natives
not much more than a dozen were
living. This statement is certainly
very discouraglng, and it is nc
wonder that the honorable noble
was in favor of passing the item az
in the bill.
We believe ourselves that il
would have been an excellent plar
to refer the matter to a committee
to canvass it thoroughly. This
country is perishing for the want
of small farmers, and if the Legis
lature can do anything to supply
them, it will earn and receive tn,
general gratitude. The population
of these Islands tends constantly tt
resolve itself into two classes
planters and Coolies, with nothing
between, and this tendency, if no
checked, is sure toprove disastrous
Our society IS sick.
The time of the Legislature cost
the country about a hundred dol
lars an hour. 1t is worth perhap
ten dollars. 1t might be worth
thousand if that body would recog
nize the urgency of our great need
and devote all the energy, fidelit,
and intelligence which it possesse
to providing for them, ceasing t.
waste invaluable hours over tn
endless discussion of frivolous bill
and resolutions.
There never was Legislative
body which lived up to this higl
standard, and it would be unreason
able to expect ours to differ from
all the legislatures that ever wer
since the foundation of the world
We believe however that our owl
has intelligence enough, patriotism
enough and sense enough of th
real needs of the country, to b
able to make long stride toward
solving some, at any rate, OF GU
vexing problems. The session
far advanced, but still long wa,
from it's close, and we believe tina
it is not too late to do something
The House, without reconsiderin
it's action of Friday, can appoint
committee to inquire what steps,
any, can be taken, to put the ayr
cultural interests of the country o
a footing more conducive to socis
health and stability and more i
consonance with the interests an

TIT EICKETS COMPARED.

Democratic SOryeyOr-General. |
MIR. EDITOR: lave had an OPP
pc. unity to hear and read the
criticisms Of the candidates upon
both the Republican and Demo
cratic tickets this Fall, and am (
impelled e. pen the results OF my
thou hts thereon.
The Democrats papers, speak
ers and wbippers-in, have much |
to say about Mr.. Colcord not be-
ing taxpayer in the county in
which he resides, but fail to have
seen, nor have / heard a word
said against Mr. Colcord's CHARGE
ter as Il man. In this regard he
stands unimpeachable, and the
PEE pie of this State can rest as
sured that in Mr.. Colcord they
have a representative man, one
wno is used to toll, has wrought
among them q quarter OF a cen
tury, and yet is not rich in this
worlds goods, hut has th4t inesti-
mabIe wealth. the character OF an
honest man. What more can the
voters Of the State require OF n
candidate than this?
Our Democratic brothers have
always hoasted OF the poverty CT
JeTerson, their prototype, giving
all his life to the service of his
county, and dying go poor that
his friends had to bury bin, his
estate not being sufficient for that
purpose. A noble sacrifice, truly;
and vet the proud followers of the
poor but honest Jefferson can only
find against Mr.. solcord that he
is poor hut honest, or in other
words honestly poor.
AS to Mr.. Winters, the opponent
of Mr.. Coiculd, it is said and ad-
mitted that lie is rich but also
honest, and fail to have heard
from any Republican source that
Mr.. " inters has come by his
wealth dishonesty; no one know
ing the man would for a moment
entertain that ED.
! next come to the expounder OF
Democl attic doctrine for this State
the Hon George w. Cassidy. /
have had the opportunity TO listen
TO several of his addresses, and
from all that can gather from
them he needs to be called "Old
Democratic Soothing Sprup, for
To- nothing else can his halangues
be likened.
They present not a point, not
an argument. and hardly an his
torical fact. Oh, how softly he
handles all the great questions OF
the day. "All settled" says the
Hon. G., w. c., Of all these vital
differences OF men and pa" O.
Theh, I ask, what use T. send
him to Congress? for he d q
propose to argue the settled u a, .
tions, and says he can have no
chance to vote upon them, and he
brings no new questions up for
our considerations. Then why, /
ask, does he wish Us to send him
to Congress? Simply fol figure
head, of cours..
Another thing / wish to call the
attention of the voters of this
State to in the coming election.
1t is this: While the Demo-
cratic party has raised the cry or
fraud and corruption against all
OF the Republican party, and
claim that Mr.. Yeringtun has done
a corrupt thing in bringing out,
as they allege, the Republican
State ticket this Fall, a ticket up
on which they have failed to show
a charge that the name OF soil
tary dishonest mau appears, ana
therefore the bringing out of such
q ticket by Mr.. Yerington should
be placed To his credit, as the act
OF "a wise and honest man, ii he
really did bring it out. They, the
Democrats, while raising the bowl

FOR MILITARY MEN.

Section 2T3 of the Military Code, issued
In General Orders No. z, July rs, 1885,
designates the badges that are to be worn
by the National Guard of New Jersey.
This order has been in q great number of
cases totally disregarded. The State Mill
tary Board will take action on the matter
and will insist that the law be enforced
by the reglmental officers. There are in
the National Guard legitimate and lille
ultimate badges. Some officers, particu-
larly fond of the flash and display, go
about on State occasions with a half peck
OF medals swinging on their coats, and
outmedal the Brigadier General. The or
der specifies these badges:-Badge of the
Society of the C~incinnati; military order
of the Loyal Legion; Grand Army of the
Republic; badges of armies or army corps
indicating actual service in the field, and
the Yorktown medal. No other badges
should be worn. General w. s. Stryker
states that the habit Of wearing medals
on fatigue blouses was growing and that
commandments should give the men to I'M
derstand that medals are to be worn as
dress ornaments only.

A Triumph for the City.

The South Cove decision, recorded
in another column of the today's
paper, is a notable triumph for the
city. The city for 81, 900 acquires sby
it a title for which the Jersey Central
was willing to pay between $50, 600 or
SOC, The ejectment proceeding,
through which the city is to secure
possession, Jagged along and Jagged
along till Corporation Counsel Ed
wards forced it on the calendar and
secured its trial before Judge Dixon.
Some ov~er-zealous city officials want
ed to secure possession by force, andit
was all Mr. Edwards could do to pre-
vent the police from anticipating the
decision just rendered by going on
the ground and ripping up every
thing the Central people had
put upon it. The statement of
the features of the case given
in another column, shows that the
Central's claim was not so devoid Of
reason as to have justified so summary
a course; and the police interference
could not but have prejudiced the
city's interests in the legal proceed
ings. Even now that the decision in
the matter is for the city, the Central
will not be disturbed till the decision
shall have been affirmed, as it doubt
less will be, by the courts to which
the railroad company has the right to
appeal Mr.. Edwards is to be com
mended as much for the conservative
spirit with which he has conducted
the contest, as for the energy with
which he has forced the proceedings
along to the happy conclusion just
reached.

TWO BAYONNE SUICIDES.
One bangles From a Tree-The Other
Dares a Locomotive.

DaFeS a Locomotive. 81
Nicholas DriscoIl, employed by Grocer
George Griswold, of Bayonne, drove
along Avenue C, in the Bergen Point
section. yesterday forenoon. to deliver
orders. When he approached Mayor
John Newman's home, near the corner OF
West Fourth street, he was astontshed to
see the legs of @ man dangling about
eighteen feet above the ground from
the limbs Of a good,sizsd maple sd
the avenue. Driving beneath the tree
Driscoll was about to call out for the fell
low to come down before he was arrested
when he discovered that the man was
suspended at the end OF q stout rope tied
around a thick limb, and was dead. He
notified the Bayonne police OF his discov-
cry. The body was cut down, re-
moved to Speer's Morgue in Jersey City.
The suicide was identified as Albert
Meister, a German youth, who found I'M
ployment as a journeyman with Barber
August Schwerfinghaus, of No. 20S Ave-
nue. D, Bayonne, several days ago. Meis-
ter was about twenty-six years old, and a
native of Baden Baden. 1t is reported
that he left home because of a quarrel
with his sweetheart.
A poorly dressed man trudged past the
Bergen Boint or West Eighth street sta
ton along the New Jersey Central Rail
road tracks yesterday afternoon. A few
minutes later the nalI past w
O'Clock express for Long Branch
whizzed by the station. When
the stranger approached the long
tre5tie bridge over Newark Bay he was
seen to turn about with a detected air.
Then he stepped deliberately from the
%eastbound track in front of the train ap-
preaching on the w%estbound rails. The
next instant the locomotive hurled him
far ahead, his death being instantaneous.
The Bayonne police had h body re-
moved to Speer's Morgue in Jersey City.
They found nothing about the body to
identity the suicide.
