MAUI NOTES.

After the breathless hurry and
rush of the last three months, Maui
plantation men are enjoying a brief
but we'll earned season of rest.
The Waikiki plantation has just
finished taking off its crop, and has
done some excellent work this sea-
son. Mr.. Walbridge may be COLI
graduated upon the success of the
new mill, of which he is justly
proud. Paia and Hamakuapoko mills
are well on in their work and have
shut down for couple Of weeks, as
there Is no need of hurrying the SUI
car to the coast now that the lst of
April has come and passed. Spreck-
elsville plantation is still grinding
and turning out 100 to 1870 tons of su-
gar a day; good work indeed.
The crop was estimated at ii, 900
tons, but will probably reach $4,000
tons.
The port of Kahului is almost de-
serted, the British 4-masted bark
Omeo being the only vessel in port.
The schr. Anna of the Spreckels' line
of clippers is expected to arrive in a
week or 10 days, having left San
Francisco about oath March. The
American Consul, the new Collector
General for Kahului, the Waikiki
School Agent and the Chairman of
the Commissioners of Agriculture,
four high officials of Maui, were seen
out driving in stylish new carriage
behind pair of fancy horses last
Sunday. As they went up country
quite early IN the morning, it Is sur
missed that they were on their way to
church.
Preparations are being made for a
grand entertainment at SpreckeIs-
Vile. Being under the auspices of
the "Makawao Ladies Aid Society"
and the immediate supervision of
Mrs. Morrison it is pretty sure to be
"howling" success.

In this mornings Advertiser | no.
tice one of the leaders of the Reform
party, Rev. VIM. b. O!eson, takes
that paper to task for pub
fishing or rather republishing
evil communications misrepreseDt-
ing the country abroad Is it posi-
bic that the formerly thick-skinned
of the Reform party are at last ac-
knowIedging the effects Of such pub
LEGATIONS?
The editor of the Advertiser comes
back at his reverend brother with the
usual evasion, by asking that Mr..
Oleson take upon his injured should
ers, as a Hawaiian citizen, the bur-
den of proving that the scandalous
stuff published in the Advertiser is
not true. In other words, does the
Advertiser propose to publish all the
''sorehead" correspondence it can
collect, which has been sent abroad,
as it has so repeatedly done, and
then demand unoffending citizens
to disprove such statements?
Or is the Advertiser only carrying
out the policy of its hackers and
lately acquired friends? Mr.. Oleson
has not probably tumbled, as yet, to
the full intent and policy of his
party friends. y.

The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1891-04-06

The "Annual Report of the Col
lector-G General of Customs" has been
issued. The report is inclusive to
December 81, 1890 A full and
clear statement of the commerce and
navigation Of the Hawaiian Kingdom
for the year mentioned is given in
self-expanatory tables. The total
value of domestic exports foots up
Sl3,023, 304 Is, of which the three
following articles make up the bulk,
viz. Sugar, S12, 159, $50 rice S545,
239 bananas, S176,351. 1t will be
seen, by reference to the report, that
sugar has exceeded the output Of
1889 by 1862, 627 pounds. The
total value of all exports, domestic
and foreign, is Sl3,2S2, 729 48.
While this total shows a decrease
of all the exports, since last year,
of 1886, 1868, yet, owing TO
the comparative values of duties
on imported articles, the report shows
there has been Il total increase in the
Customs revenue from all sources Of
$14j, GAG. The increase of revenue
has been chiefly from duties on
spirits, SIS, O46, and on goods, $685.
504.
The imports from foreign coun-
tries have increased over those of
1889, $I,523,4l1; of this amount
the imports from the United States
have increased by over seventy five
percent.
1t is encouraging to note that
coffee to the amount of So, 1913
pounds was exported in 1890, which
is more than double the amount sent
from our shores in 1889.

This is one Of the very best church
journals published in Hawaii. It's
editorial notes and local news are
always fully up to the standard ex
pected in religious family Journal
and, as is well known, the Chro-
nicle never degenerates into political
discussions, winch fact makes it only
the more acceptable to general read
ers. The press work on the present
issue, however, detructs somewhat
from the attractiveness OF the journal.

Prohibitionists Pleased.

TOPEKA, May 27.-The prohibition
leaders here are delighted at the result
of the supreme court decision in the
Rohrer case. County Attorney Welch,
who had dropped his prosecutions OF
the men charged with continuing to
sell liquor after the passage of the Will
son bill, will now continue and the war
will be waged with enthusiasm and de-
tie, mination.
1t is difficult to tell the political eff
feet of the decision. Secretary of State
Higgins said this morning that he
hoped the question would now be taken
out OF politics. 1T is no longer po-
litical question:" said he, land the de-
cision of the highest tribunal in the
land settles the matter so far as the APP
preaching campaign is concerned"
Many of the democratic and republican
leaders have become sick and tired of
campaign over local issue and since
the peoples party has ignored the
question altogether, it will give it
distinct advantage in the approaching
campaign, if the old parties divide on
the liquor problem.

Baptist Missionaries in Session.

CINCINNATI, May 27.-The American
Baptist missionary union continued it's
session to- day.
Reports of committees on the various
mission fields were made.
The committee on Africa reported
that there was disappointment in secur-
ing colored missionaries and securing
welcome for them in Africa. Africans
want white missionaries.
The committee on Burmah pleaded
for more men. Missionary W. Roberts
of northern Burmah addressed the
union. He believed the Chinese would
rule the world unless the English
speaking people gave up their drink
ing.
The committee on Japan made dis
couraging report. The Japanese were
demanding Japan for the Japanese and
that proved great hindrance to mis-
sionary work.

honorary secretary and will write his
tory of his years OF service.

He Sold on q Prescription.

KANSAS CITY, May 27.-The court of
appeals to-day reversed the decision of
the lower court and discharged M. M.
Kaoffman, who was arrested, tried and
convicted on the charge Of selling
liquor contrary to the local option law
in Bates county. Kaufman claimed
that he sold the liquor on a prescrip-
tion from a regular physician. This
the court holds valid defense. The
court also holds that the local option
law in Bates county was not legally
adopted. The election was held jan
uary "a, 1888. The law requires twen-
ty-eight days notice of such election.
In this case there was but twenty-seven
days notice, The court of appeals holds
the one day shortage to be a fatal de-
feet.
