The Mascot.

Our representative saw but the
latter part of the last act of Mas
cot as given by the New York Opera
Company, Thursday evening. A
large audience was present; and
from the many EXPLANATIONS of ap-
proval heard from those present, the
entertainment was one heartily ap-
preciated. With one accord it seem
ed to be the wish for repetition of
the Mascot. Judging from the feel
ing, we feel safe in stating that the
reproduction of this comic opera
will be greeted by the largest audi
ence that has ever attended at the
Honolulu Opera House. The second
act of II Trovatore will also be
given.

" What Is News. d"

Mn. EDITOR: In your Wednesday
issue, april 1stl, on the last page,
you quote approvingly from The
Youths Companion certain answers
to the question: What is news?''
You append the editorial statement
that each Of these definitions is good,
and it matters not which the reader
may prefer; according TO any one of
them the news is found in the pages
of the DAILY ADVERTISER.
The definition Immediately pre-
ceding the above statement is as
follows: News is truth concerning
men, nations and things. That is,
truth concerning them which is
helpful, or pleasant, or useful, or
necessary for a reader to know"
; Judging by this standard, on
what grounds do you justify the
publication in your columns of
Sister Rose Gertrude's letter to The
Ladies Home Journal? Residents of
Honolulu know well enough that
that communication, as quoted by
you, is misleading. If the state
ments made in that letter, from a
professedly aggrieved party, are
overdrawn and colored to suit the
purpose of the writer, and you were
aware of the fact, were you justified
in printing it as news, according to
the standard set for your columns in
the above definition? But supposing
the statements made in that letter
were cold, hard facts. Were you
then justified in printing those state
ments without editorially indicating

Three Hundred in the Party
"A Pleasant Day.
Saturday was day Of pleasure to
those who made the excursion to
Remond Grove. The train of seven
coaches left the Honolulu station at
nearly IL o'clock, and every coach
was filled with children and older
members of the Second Congrega-
ton of st. Andrews Cathedral, and
every face, especially of the younger
excursionists, beamed with delight
for the anticipated pleasure of day
in the country. A better day could
not have been chosen, for although
a little windy in the city, it was
calmer ard cool along the road and
at the Grove.
The different scenes along the way
were source of amusement and en-
joyment till the destination was
reached about noon, when the coaches
were emptied almost as quickly as
they were filled when the signal
" all aboard" was given at Honolulu.
Shortly after arriving at the
Grove, lunch was served that alike
satisfied the unusually voracious APP
petites, the result of the outing, and
the desire for sweetmeats. Nothing
was left undone to make the day one
of enjoyment to all, and after several
hours passed in different games for
the children, the party started home
ward, arriving here shortly after 4
o'clock.
As was generally thought by even
the older members of the party, the
excursion was presumably given by
the Second Congregation of st. An
drew's Cathedral, but such is not the
case, as we accidently learned later
in the day. The pastor, Rev. Alex.
Macintosh, of the Second Congre-
cation, is the one to whom the
hearty thanks of all who were with
the party are due. While open to all
who wished to go, it was neverthe-
less gotten up by Rev. Macintosh,
and to him credit is due from the $40
who accepted his invitation.

readers to know what may not be

1t Is greatly to be regretted that
with your high standard of what con-
stitutes "news, you have not availed
yourself of an opportunity to justify
your action in publishing what has
done no one any good, and it may be

Horner's Banking BiII-No. IA

HOrner's Banking BiII-No. II
Mr.. EDITOR: Permit me to pur-
sue q little further the detail ad-
vantages of our proposed bank and
some of the evils of our present
money system.
During the session of our last
Legislature we heard it repeatedly
stated by native members, that
foreigners were robbing the natives
of their lands by loaning money
upon them at usurious rates of IN
terest, and as soon as the debt had
accumulated so as to render 1t i'm
possible for the owner to redeem
it a foreclosure followed and the
native driven from his home"
They even mentioned one lawyer
that had in " his hands 125 mort
gagged kuleanas for foreclosing and
some of them running at a % per
cent per annum interest" There
is no doubt too much truth in the
above statements to be entirely
ignored. Yet there is no fault to
be found with the money lender
for getting large interest for his
money, he has a right to do what
he pleases with his own; he can
loan it, invest it, give it away or
miserly-Ike lock it up and gloat
over it. The fault is in the system
which forces all borrowers into
the hands of private lenders.
l would not ask for an arbitrary
law to forbid usury or to forbid
high rates Of interests, as such laws
are frequently evaded, but | would
prevent usury and eXorbitant in
terest by endowing our present
bank with the powers this bill pro-
vides for it. Then borrowers would
have two parties to apply to for
money, viz: the government bank
and private parties the same as
they do now. This would be no
arbitrary law against usury, but it
would be an effectual remedy that
could not be evaded, as the banks
rate of interest being fixed by law,
the bank would say in effect to all,
F." Borrow from whom you please,
but if you have the legal security
1 will loan you all the money you
can secure for four per cent. per
annum." This would prevent all
usury and every hardship such as
is stated by the natives in the be-
ginning of this article, and all hard
ships brought upon the country by
tightness in the money market.

A preliminary summary of the
census of December, 1890, is now
complete with the exception of one
district on Kauai. The number of
native Rawaiians (omitting the dis
trict in question: is found to be
39,763, against 1873 according to
the census Of 1854. This shows a
falling of of 1915, OF attraction over
s per cent, and the returns from the
one incomplete district cannot mate
rally change this result. 1t will be
seen therefore that the ratio of de-
crease for the last six years has been
less than one per cent more than the
average from 1872 to 1884, and about
one-third less than from 1860 Ito 1872.
Under the head of natives in the
above statement are included all Ha-
waiians of either pure or mixed
blood. During the last six years the
half-castes have probably increased,
absolutely as well as relatively, but
as this has been the uniform rule
ever since regular census was first
taken in this country, the existence
of this fact in no way invalidates the
comparisons above made.
The editor of the Friend, who is
usually very careful and accurate in
his statements, was probably misled
by remarks [ made in his presence
relative to the large falling off of
natives in some of the out of town
districts, particularly on this island.
On the other hand, more than twenty
five per cent of the entire native
population Of the country is located
in Honolulu, where there is no fall
ing off in their numbers, but rather
a slight increase, the native town
population being constantly fed at
the expense of the rest of the coun-
try. This brings down the average
decrease for the whole country to
the figures above given. There is
also some increase in the population
of Molokai, due to the unusually
large number of lepers segregated
during the last three or four years.

The benefit rendered Mr.. Lang

not largely attended, owing, no
doubt, to the stormy weather. The
Mascot was sufficient to draw large
house. The opera was as well per
formed as it was on the evening
first presented. Owing to the indis-
position of Miss Myers, the second
