Minister of Interior, l.. A. Thurston,
against the Auditor-Gcneral, Geo.
j. Ross. The writ is asked to com
pei the respondent to audit bills for
pay of prison lunas on the Volcano

whether, rs the Minister contends
for, the payments for prison labor
can be made from funds other than
those provided by the appropriation
foy the specific work. A.P.Peterson,
Deputy Attorney General, appeared
for the Government, and F.M. Hatch

KOnALA NOTES.

EDITOR NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. OF the
disclosures of intimidation, corrup-
ton and bribery, in election matters,
during the recent campaign on Oahu
and Maui, it might be as well to
mention the fact that the Govern.
msnt party here was not behind the
times, intimidation being practiscd
in the most open manner. Had it
not been for the complete collapse
of all its subtle plans, compelling
its supporters to throw up the
sponge at a remarkably early hour,
more might have been made of it.
For the future, measures should be
adopted to prevent any repetition
of any such arbitrary and illegal
methods of controlling votes.
kObala welcomes another addition
to its medical fraternity in DR.. We'd
dick of Dublin, Ireland, possessing
the highest of testimonials and the
best of references. He intends set
tling down amongst us. We have
always felt that this has been one of
our chief needs, although the pre-
sent Government physician is most
attentive and gives general satisiac-
ton, yet his field of work is too
large and scattered, which at times
compcls him to go elsewhere, lcav-
ing the district entirely without q
medical practitioner.
Mr.. Theo. III. Davies, of the firm
of that name i'm Honolulu, and Mr..
Young, of the Honolulu Iron Works
Co., are in the district, but in spite
of bad weather have managed to
paddle round.
Last week Deputy Sheriff Ashford
Spencer with party of constablcs,
surprised and captured n gang of Chi
namen in broad daylight, distilling
okolchao in the woods, the officers
plans being so well laid and cXecut-
ed as TO prevent any show of resist
ancc.
What is the matter with the Post
master General in Honolulu? The
ten day mail service is anything but
satisfactory to those in the country
districts, and there seems to be lit
tie or no attempt whatever made to
better things. In former times we
were secured weekly service; if
Wilder's 5. s. Co. were not up to
time, boat of HE Inter-Island
$. N. Co. would bring us mails.
The changes in this department of
the Government have been anything
but satisfactory. What recommen-
dation has the present postmaster of
Kohala for his post, beyond being a
friend of Sheriff Hitchcock. Mails
are frequently misplaced, which
means in many instances twenty
days service. Probably some kind
friend donating Il pair of spectacles
would prove public bencfactor. 1t
is to he hoped that the day is at
hand, when competence and not po-
liical opinions or party friendship,
will be the ruling standard for Gov
ernment appointments.

RE.ArroINrMrSr, OF sEwALL.

President Harrison has appointed
Harold NJ. Sewall of Maine us Con-
sul-General at Apia. The san
Francisco Call thus refers to the
appointment:
"llarold M. Sewall was first APP
pointed to the Apia consul-gcncral-
ship by President Cleveland to sue
coed Berlhold Grecncbaum of this
city. Sewall soon showed that he
had even more grit than Greene
baum, and while the Samoan trouble
was at its height he was recalled by
Bayard. 1t was generally under
stood after the Berlin conference
that Scwall would be sent back to
Apia after the Senate had taken ac-
ton on the treaty. His warmcst
supporter and admircr was Secretary
Blaine, who recognised tie value Of
his services to the country and pro-
missed him that he should have the
place if his influence could procure
it. 1t is generally understood that
the Republicans in Difference to
Blaine's wishes and Sewall's SER
vices will waive party considera-
tons and confirm him. Mr.. Scwal
is still Il young man and is connect
ell with the ship-building Scwall
