NO INCONSISTENCY.

There was not the Inconsistency
charged by the Times between an
editorial article and an editorial
paragraph cited from this paper on
the treaty question. The BULLETIN
ia, as the article stated, in accord
with any policy of maintaining our
present free trade relations with the
United States. At the same time to
talk Of perpetual free trade" being
assured in any treaty that does not
cede the independence OF this coun-
Try is nonsense. perpetual" is n
common word in treaties between
nations perpetual friendship"
perpetual comfy" or whatever
mutual condition is referred to. The
>''perpetuaf' character Of the bond, +,
however, only lasts during the pleas
ure OF both of the contracting par
ties. "Perpctral'' in this diplomatic
sense is not what the Times means,
for it says that the "frec trade" it
advocates "means that every banana,
lime, pineapple, orange, etc, that
We raise goes into the United States
free of duty until the crack of
doom" We say without fear OF
refutation that such perpetual free
trade" cannot possibly be assured
without this country passing under
the virtual rule of the United States.
Some Of the writer's for the Times
are lawyers, and they cannot con-
trovert the position here assumed.
They know, and they have a recent
decision of the United States Sill
prene Court to fortify their know
ledge, that an international treaty is
not, in any country a party thereto,
whit more sacred than the statutes
OF sucl country. According to that
decision, treaty cannot hold against
the provisions of statute laws made
subsequent to the treaty. 1t may
he voided in effect by ordinary legis-
lation, even without being directly
mentioned. These contingencies

Party Representatives in
the Polling Places.

| am requested 10y parties inter
ested to publicly state the number
of persons representing candidates
who by law are allowed i'll the pol
ling places on election day.
The statute allows each candidate
for Representative to have one
watcher for each ballot box at each
polling place. Each polling place
has two ballot boxes. Therefore each
candidate for Representative is en-
titled to two watchers at each pol
ling place in his district The whole
ticket for Mobiles, for the purpose OF
watchers at the polls, is treated as
one, and is entitled to the same num-
ber Of watchers that one Represen-
tative Is.
That is to say, each ticket for
Mobiles is entitled to one watcher for
each ballot box at each polling place,
or two at each polling place.
The clerk and messenger referred
to in Schedule c., page AZ, are not
allowed in the polling place, other
wise than as it may be necessary for
the messenger to deliver or receive
messages.

in the case Of the perpetual free

Times, through change Of policy
by the American Union.
This danger is in addition to the
event liable to occur at any day,
even during the term Of the present
treaty, of IIawaii's advantages un-
der the compact being neutralized
by change in the sugar tariff of
the United States. In such an
event, as liable to occur under the
perpetual treaty" as it is under
the temporary convention now run

cannot look elsewhere for markets,
by the provision in the projected
treaty that all treaties between this
and other countries must be approved
by the Washington Government.

being so vastly the weaker power OF
the two contracting parties, could

Mr.. Walbridge next appeared. He

had now no corruption in any de-
partment (?), aud this was the only
country so situated in Gods world.
He would hear nothing about blood

the REFORM Meeting AT Wal.
lUKU.

EplroE BrLLETIN:-Large red
posters had for days given the Maui
districts notice, that the Reform
Party would hold a meeting in the
skating rink in Waiuku, where the
candidates for legislative honors
would express their views, assisted
by the professional politicians from
IIenolulu-Acssrs. w. O. Smith,
W. A. Kinney, W. c. Achi and S.
Nj. Kaaukai. After an adventurous
journey the Honolulu gentlemen
were picked up at sea and landed in
Maalaea Bay, where they were re-
ceived by n committee consisting Of
ACKNOWLEDGMENT II. Treadway, and
Mr.. j. Stelling, who in hacks con-
yeycd them TO Wailuku. Messrs.
Kinney and Achi were unable to
come, bat instead we found Mr.. A.
Kaulia and Mr.. Vivas, who was i'm
ported to act rs Portuguese inter-
prefer. The meeting was called
yesterday about p. M. In spite of
free trains and hacks the attendance
was very slim for n while. Later on
a number OF natives from Waihce,
generously cartcd in by the planta-
tion manager, arrived to furnish the
enthusiasm, which they failed to do
owing to corruption and gin--so say
the Reform men.
The Government doctor in Maka.
wac, Mr.. Crane, acted as chairman,
assisted by staff OF other gentle
men. Mr.. w. o. Smith acted as
Hawaiian interpreter and Mr.. Vivas
as Portuguese.
Mr.. Smith was the first speaker.
l will not bore you by reporting his
speech. 1t was the usual worn out
ward speech used by him in Homo
lulu together with the reading of the
newest of the new platforms. Mr..
Smith failed to arouse any interest
in the audience and retired during
deep silence, interrupted by the
noisy departure of number of peo-
pie. When Mr.. Vivas was going to
give his Interpretation of Mr..
Smiths speech funny incident
happened. The 10 or l8 Portu-
gnese present thought that Mr.,
Nivas was going to address them on
his OWE behalf, and they interrupt
ed him violently, so it was with ditll-
Guilty that he was allowed to con-
tinue. lie explained what was CO.
ing on in English TO the audience
and threw out gentle insinuation
that the Portuguese were hired by the
Opposition to insult him. The Op.
position has got better use for its
money than TO spend it on chap
like Vivas.
Mr.. Baldwin was the next speaker.
After the usual remarks about good
government, etc. he asked the voters

Messers Leech Il Savage have re
Gently purchased Of G. u. Cook some
of the most valuable property in the
city. The purchase includes the four
handsome residences fronting on Sew
enth street, beginning at Madison
and running North about sixty feet
for each of the four excellent lots, and
the property on the corner of Fifth
and Franklin, taking in the house
now occupied by the Misses Dowell,
and an old house on the corner. This
lot fronts nearly 200 feet on Franklin
street and about IS on Fifth. The
price paid was $4,000, with $1,000
cash.
This sale takes in some of the best
property in the city, and it is pur-
chased by two of the Invest young
men in any city. 1t strikes the aver
age thinker that the price paid was
pretty high, but the valuation of city
property is steadily increasing and
in few months, perhaps, this same
property will be worth double the
price paid.
1t was recently reported on the
streets this morning that this deal
had been made by Messers Leech &
Savage, for Mr.. l.. A. Ragsdale. A
CHRONICLE reporter interviewed Mr..
Savage on the subject and that gen.
tleman says there is no truth in the
rumor, and that the property was
purchased for Leech & Savage, and
for no one else.

destroyed by fire Sunday about noon.
Nearly all the household goods were
destroyed, entailing a pretty heavy

been married, which makes it all the
more disastrous to him. The origin
of the fire is unknown.
