INDEPENDENT VOTING.

EDITOR BULLETIN: -
Before the election took place at
kuoaupoko last Wednesday, threats
were made To the natives that mort
cages held by certain person would
be isreclosed il they did not vote
tor the Reform candidate, and the
native laborers on the sugar planta-
,ions were told that they could seek
employment elsewhere if they voted
Tor the National Reform candidate.
Five of the hands employed on q
plantation were summarily aischarg-
ed. because they availed themselves
Of the mach vauuted liberty, which
is claimed by Il certain class, and
mas been obtained FOR the Hawaiian
people through their efforts. l am
sorry TO say that this IS one OF the
fruits Of 4 system of pconage prac-
tlSed among lahorers in nearly all
Of our plantations. i !aborer work
ing for n sugar plantation in this
district was also told before election
by messengers that he would have to
Leave if he voted for Sir. Bush.
This action oR-the part OF planters
has been, no doubt, carried else
where, and is but the sequel to the
amendment in the election law made
by Mani plantation owner.
! am pleased to see the spirit o.
independence among liawaiians as

an awakening. / hope the mex
Legislature will alter the Election

EDIoR BULLETIN -
In christening what no doubt will

conccde with the committee that
"?earl City is Il prcttier name than
Pearl Town, Pearlville, Hope Town,
etc, etc. There is as much differ
enee as there is in the fact that it
will have tO be a town before 1t can
be city. But the public was ask
ed TO compete IN furnishing the best
name for the town. This request
must either have been overlooked
by the committee or else they dc
know that there is as much differ
cace between town and city as
there is between town and a place

Had we known that il was to be

gcsted the name Of Heaven or some

NOTICE.

OF late many complaints have been
at this Office Of the neglect and
in some cases refusal Of parties who buy
the DEMOCRAT from the newsboys,. to
pay for the paper. We are aware that
there are people who glory in being able
to get something for nothing. Cases
have been reported where the little news
agents have regularly delivered the
paper daily for two months without re-
ceiving a cent, to find at the end Of that
time that the customer had moved
away. Weekly customers of the boys
should remember that the carriers are
held responsible for every paper they
deliver, payment at the Office each day
when they receive the papers. 1t is
hardship to keep.a boy waiting a month
for his pay, and it is downright meal
to steal away without settling with hin
papers for that length Of time. Civ

Company Under Arrest.

Paym aster OF the Farrell Foundry
Company Under Arrest.
There was great sensation in Anso-
MIA yesterday afternoon when it became
known that William Moore, the pay
master of the Farrell Foundry and Ma
chine company, had been arrested for
embezzling large sums of money from
the company. Moore had been employ
ed by the company for many years and
was supposed to be quite wealthy. Not
long ago the officers of the Farrell COM
pany became suspicious that their pay
roll had assumed unusually large pro-
portions and began an investigation.
They discovered that Moore was draw
ing pay for four men, who never work
ed for the company, and that each of
these men was put down for SEQ a week.
1t was also learned that Moore was
charging the company 1878 per day for
q number of men who, as a matter of
fact, were only getting $3.50 day. The
total amount Of the embellishments has
not been told. When Moore was arrest
ed he was overcome and promised to
settle. Strenuous efforts were made to
keep the affair private. Moore's father
gave bonds to the extent of $4,000 for
his sons appearance. 1t is thought like
ly that the matter will be settled.
