REGISTRATION OF VOTERS.

With regard TO the registration of
voters, number of important questions
have arisen. Perhaps the most impor-
tant is that regarding residence. A
glance at the law and at the Constitution
will show that the word resided" is
used with reference to Mobiles and Noble
electors, while "domiciled" is used with
reference to Representatives and their
electors. There is very little trouble
with reference to the word "domicile.
A mans domicile is the place where one
has his true, fixed, permanent home, to
which he intends to return if absent.
Resides" is not quite SO clear, but it
is certainly narrower in its Specification
than domicile. The law of 1886, now
repealed, is indicative of the sense of the
legislature on the point, and Inspectors
of election will have to guide themselves
carefully. A Noble voter must have re-
sided in the country three years actually,
(unless on the list of 1887 and in the
district where he offers to register, at
least three months prior to the day of
election. A voter for Representative
must have been domiciled in the King
dom at least year previous to the cleo
ton, and there is no restriction as to
residence in the district.
The question of payment of taxes is
also important. The payment of taxes
(if one is taxable) is prerequisite to
registration. A mandamus case in 1870
holds that one may pay taxes up to the
last moment. At the present time regis
tration is prerequisite, consequently,
as the law certainly permits one every
chance, taxes may be paid at any time,
on or before January 3lst, which is the
last day that the Inspectors of election
can sit for registration. II the tax officer
has furnished list of those who have
paid taxes, the production of a tax re-
ceipt is OF course unnecessary.
Inspectors of election ought also to OBJ
serve another point. No one can vote,
consequently can not register, who has
been convicted of arson, barratry, brib-
cry, burglary, counterfeiting, embezzle-
ment, felonious branding of cattle, for
gerry, gross cheat, incest, kidnapping,
larceny, malicious burning, manslaughter
LIST degree, murder, perjury, rape, rob-
berry, sodomy, treason, subordination of
perjury and malfeasance in Office, unless
duly pardoned and restored to civil
rights.

THE ELECTION LAW.
rights.

A good deal is said about the new
election law. There is much unfavorable
comment and even one or two suggest
Ions that it was dishonesty intended.
Probably after the first election it will be
regarded with more respect and conf
dence. 1t is aimed first and foremost at
securing honest elections. Then, at
perfect simplicity for the voter. 1t Sc
cures it. Ii the voter has registered,
which is also simple for him, he proceeds
quietly to the polls and votes with no
trouble or bother with tax receipts or
otherwise. Then, it prevents undue in
fuence on the part of the Government,
whose officials can vote but are not al
lowed to use the weight of position
toward securing their continuance in
office. The Government must stand or
fall upon its record. This is the law in
those countries which have adopted this
system. The penalties of the law are
chiefly directed against all and every
form OF bribery, be it disguised ever SO
cunningly. This is just and proper
Elections become dangerous weapons of
oppression and corruption just when they
fail to record the verdict of an honest
public opinion. Unless they can do
this, the elective franchise might as well
be taken away. 1t will be found by any
who read the law carefully, that every
possible influence and effort can be used
openly and honestly to sway the intelli-
gent judgment of voters and no possible
punishment can attach to it. But heavy
penalties attach to all force, intimidation
or corruption. The law also provides
the necessary machinery to unseat mem
bers who have no right to sit in the
House; also all matters necessarily rela-
tive to election districts, etc. The rest
is made up OF careful instructions to
those whose duty it is to carry out the
law. The instructions are directed
wholly toward securing the rights of
voters and obtaining fair and honest
elections. There is, however, consider
able truth in the assertion that the pro-
hibition against interference by Govern
ment officers prevents work by large
proportion OF the intelligent voters of the
country. This may be unfortunate
sometimes, but the provision is safe
one and should be rlgidly enforced. Let
the law have a fair trial.

WHY THE OPPOSITION IS A REACTION
AIRY PARTY.

We speak OF the Opposition to the
Reform party as the "Re-actionary
Party" first, because its leaders are the
very men who, until they were forcibly
stopped from doing so, were running
the Government as q private machine,
who were part and parcel OF the gang
which was making the name of the
country by-word and bankrupting the
Treasury; and second, because OF their
principles, or rather their lack OF princi-
pies.
They have gotten off lot OF clap-trap
in what they call their platform, but in
all their speeches and all their news
papers there is an absolute lack OF refer
ence to the principles set forth in the
platform.
Mr.. Antoine Rosa, as President OF the
Hui kalaiaina, sounded the keynote OF
the campaign in his armory speech the
other night. It was ''race prejudice"
The Elele has for months been dinging
into the ears OF its readers a never-ceas-
ing stream of bitterness concerning the
usurping H-a-o-l-e," the Mission
ary,n and the down-trodden Hawaiian
Mr.. Bush rings the changes on the
usurping foreigner and urges the Hawaii
ans to right their wrongs by treating the
haoles as the Samoans did the Germans.
Mr.. Wilcox's sole capital is the race
prejudice which he has excited and is
still exciting.
In view OF these facts, in view OF the
specific declaration made by Mr. Rosa as
to the position Of himself and his socie-
ty, and knowing that these gentlemen
are the recognized leaders OF the party,
we feel justified in designating the party
which they represent as a re-actionary
party, even though there may be other
men on the ticket with them who do not
entertain such sentiments
Race prejudice is the one plank upon
which the Re-actionary orators and
newspaper writers seek to win the COM
ing election.

- PLEDGED AND HONEST CANDIDATES

One of the organs of the party OF
abuse. the National Herald" gloriies
the pledged and honest candidates" of
their faction. Let US see, another OF
their organs names the whole list. As
we have before remarked, many, indeed
most of their candidates are we'll known
gentlemen who will not, if elected, con-
sent to become tools of retrogression !;
but when these organs parade the whole
ticket as pledged and honest" and at
the same time hurl inuendos and slurs
at the opposing candidates and the adj
ministration, it becomes necessary to
show up the hollowness of our neigh
boris professions. pledged and honest
candidates." Here they are: John E.
Bush; 4. Kauhi: A. Rosa, IAN ex-Min-
lister OF the notorious administration
when waste" is very gentle word for
the expenditure OF public money!; R.W.
Wilcox; J. W. Kalua; W. H Cum
mings. Their names are sufficient
pledge of what they are. And of the
others. J. S. Walker; j. T. Baker; J. K.
Kaunamano; D. H. Nahinu; j. n. Ka-
pahu; ]. Kamakele; ]. Nakaleka: E. L.
Kauai, and G. B. Palohau, have all
established records for abject subserv-
iency to that same administration which
did so much to destroy Constitutional
government in the country and ruin the
public credit and national character
abroad. To hold up these gentlemen as
the proper persons 20 protect the true
interests OF the Hawaiian is, to pervert
the true meaning OF language, to say
that black is white, that filth is purity
And now it lies with those other gentle
men to show that their associating them
selves with men whose record is such, is
not merely ior the purpose OF using any
means to beat, anything to get it. How
about Bush's promise-if the Portuguese
would vote for him lin effect that he
would pay them 81 per day Perhaps he
would, but he would not pay his own
beloved people any 81 per day. Yet he
is the apostle OF equal rights, equal pay,
equal opportunities, equal rights and no
restriction OF Chinese, in fact equal any
thing if he can only get in. Let the So
called National Reform Party remember,
as the electors viii not fail to do, that
they carry Bush, Wilcox and company
on their shoulders with all that that
means.

HON. EDWARD PRESTON.

Judge Preston is dead. The sad intel
ligence came to the city a few moments
before > o'clock yesterday afternoon.
He had been assigned to hold the pres
ent term of the Supreme Court, and
although suffering from an attack of his
old enemy, the govt, took his seat and
conducted the business till few days
since. He occupied a position on the
Supreme Bench few days over four and
a half years, with generally acknowl-
edged ability. His strong side was his
extensive and comprehensive knowledge
of the common law of England. Hewas
possessed OF quick perceptions and a
shrewd mind, and had an intimate
knowledge of the law of pleading, derived
chiefly from his early training as clerk
in law offices in London. Previous to
his promotion TO the Supreme Bench he
was known as safe and careful counsel
and took part in many of the important
cases of the past few years. Perhaps it
is too soon to review or criticise his work
as Justice Of the highest court in the
Kingdom, but that he has left his mark,
all will admit. His counsel had an i'm
portant and controlling influence in
shaping the position of the court during
the past two important years.

II is automatically reported that Mr..
T. R. Lucas has made the statement that
R. j. Greene, one of the Reform Noble
candidates, has boosted that he "was
the first man to kill kanaka ON the 30th
of July"
The injurious effect to Mr.. Greene of
such statement, especially among a
large body of the native electors is mani
fest. 1t plays upon half healed wounds
and smouldering passions, and as poll
teal card will undoubtedly have a part
at least of the desired effect.
1t is hardly necessary to say that the
charge is false, Mr.. Greene having dis
tinctly stated to an interviewer that he
never made such a remark, and, so far
from indulging in the feelings attributed
to him, was very thankful when the day
in question was over, that he had not
been compelled to take human life at all.
This community simply remembers OF
Mr.. Greene, in connection with the late
instruction, that though physically dis
abled, he was found in the very fore
front that day doing his duty as good
citizen. He has made nothing out OF it
nor expects to, but certainly things have
come to a pretty pass if by reason OF
what he then did, he is to be just that
much worse off on election day in the
public regard than one who did little or
nothing on the occasion in question.
This statement of Mr.. Lucas will I'M
doubtedly tend to create the belief (cor-
rect or otherwise) among sympathizers
with the late disturbance, that he must
have been more or less favorable to that
movement, and therefore win their votes.
But he should learn that he cannot rouse
unjust prejudice among the natives
against rival candidates and make votes
for himself by such methods, without at
least the disapproval of those OF his own
supporters who regard Mr.. Greene's con-
duct on the day in question as no indica-
ton whatever Of hostility to the natives,
but simply the response of a good citizen
to the call OF public duty, all the more
commendable because it involved the
jeopardy of his own life.
Mr.. Lucas should be the last one to
indulge in such immaterial and personal
remarks as the one attributed to him, for
he himself, owes much to public forbear-
ance in this respect. We all remember
the unpleasant fact that it was firm in
which Mr.. Lucas was partner, which
spent the last few days before the Goth
of June in barricading the Palace gates
when for aught men then knew, it was
to be themselves, their own friends and
relatives who were destined to beat their
lives out against those barricades in pro-
test against state of affairs that had
become intolerable.
1t was probably the thrill of disgust
that followed which led the Legislature
to throw out the claim Of this firm for
the services in question

Mr.. MARQUES.

Mr.. Marques is not fool, he is gen.
tleman of intelligence and education,
consequently he knows very we'll when
he puts forward such stuff as he pub
fishes in challenge to Mr.. Gonsalves
that he INDUCES in clap-trap and foolish
ness. He talks about Missionary Re-
form party and its pro-Chinese policy. AS
to the first, if party under any name
has governed the country well it de-
serves well of the country. He knows
that the country has been well governed
so he hopes to appeal to the ignorant
among the electorate by appealing to
prejudices against the name missionary.
He knows the inuendo about pro-
Chinese policy is false, for he knows
that the present administration is the
first which has inaugurated and yigor-
ously carried out anti-Chinese laws.
He knows that the present administra-
tration has done all that ever has been
done to secure homes and employment
for the Portuguese, and then he comes
out and calls himself the friend and "on
the side OF the poor workingmen of all
nationalities, etc" Modest truly! And
yet he is doing all he can to promote the
success of Mr.. Bush, and it was Mr..
Bush who, against the law, leased thou
sands of acres of Government land to the
Queen, by which it could not be used for
homesteads. Go to! Friend Marques

THERE is something almost naive in
the apparent sincerity with which the
Bulletin asks why we "bore" the public
with all these accusations against the
men on the National Reform" ticket.
The Bulletin closes with the threat that
if it be desired to conduct the cam
paign in this way the Opposition can
retaliate. This remark is made with
so much apparent sincerity that we
cannot avoid the conclusion, SO credit
able to the Bulletin, that its editor does
not read the acknowledged organs of his
own party. the Elele and Ka Leo ka
Lahui. This trifing inconsistency we
note because it is honorable to its author.
The reason the ADVERTISER continues to
make charges against certain nominees
of the Re-actionary party is simply be-
cause the charges are true, most impor-
tant to be known, matters of public
record, and relate most intimately to
the question of fitness for public office.
