Surveyor-General, Mr.. Lyons men
tons this Report as prepared by
the especial direction of the then
Minister of the Interior, and the
first of its kind, and states that
Government Survey observations
extend back for a period of only
seven years for rainfall, and about
ten for barometer, etc.; neverthe-
less, Mr.. Lyons has tabulated the
observations of several gentlemen,
dating back to DIR. Rookie in 1897,
and for rainfall and thermometer,
and to 1921 and , for thermometer,
registered by the first American
Missionaries.
Observations for rainfall, Table
l., are now registered at eight sta
tons in Oahu, four in Maui, six in
Hawaii and two in Kauai; these
two latter, however, are unfortun-
ately too near to one another to
give any idea OF the rainfall of the
island except at Koloa-Lihue.
Table II. gives Is years observ-
ed by Mr.. W. W. Hall, and Table
LII. Is years by DR.. Nc Kibbin,
with average maximum and mini
mum. Tables ". to X. contain
valuable series of observations
thermometrical, days Of Trade
wind, cloudlness, barometrical, etc.
Mr.. Lyons suggests, and we
heartily endorse his suggestion,
that permanent observers be sta
toned, one at the Crater House and
one at Hilo, to record both meteor
illogical and volcanic phenomena
for Hawaii, so also one at Olinds
and one at Spreckelsville for Maui
A moderate outfit of instrument!
would be probably all the outlay
required.

Mr.. EDITOR: The recent continu-

some cases, as the aigeroba, being

the hau and cocoa-palm show signs
of the salty blast from the ocean.
The casuraina has thrived on it
and improved in appearance. For
proof see the trees ut the entrance

LATEST FROM AUSTRALIA.

By the Mariposa we have dates
from Auckland to February 9th.
The Herald says:
Since the collapse of the great
strike, everything in that way has
been quiet in New Zealand.
A convention of statesmen from
the different colonies OF Australasia
will assemble in Sydney on March
2, for the purpose of putting to-
gether a constitution under which
the colonies can federate. This is
the outcome of conference held last
year.
The present Issue of the Herald
Monthly Summary is the first under
an arrangement by which the San
Francisco mail will be accelerated
by three days. Hitherto, the mail via
New York and San Francisco has
taken thirty five days to reach the
colony. At this time and for the
future, it will be delivered at the
first port (Auckland) in thirtytwo
days. The change has been effected
by r. j. Creighton, the New Zea-
land Government Agent in San
Francisco, in arrangement with MIR.
| j. D. SpreckeIs of the Pacific Mail
Company. A day will be saved on
the voyage between Auckland and
San Francisco, and two days will be
saved by the mail being timed to
catch swift steamer at New York.
This acceleration will still further
manifest the supe' iority of the mail
route via San Francisco, and make
it the most speedy means of commu-
nication between the Colonies and
London.

population would be very much higher IN
this section than in the North, but the very
opposite is really the case.
The explanation Of the disproportion lies
principally, we think, in two causes. First,
the mass OF the Southern negro population Is
10 be found in the country districts, and IN
these districts there is a notorious relaxation
of the law in the punishment of blacks who
have been guilty Of crime. Their ofenses
have TO be heinous and glazing TO lead to
their arrest. Acts innumerable that should
result in their imprisonment are overlooked
and condoned by the whites in spirit of in
difference after the first feeling Of resentment
has subsidized.
Secondly. the negro population OF the North
is practically confined 10 the cities, and IN
these cities the law is strictly enforced against
both whites and blacks for small as well as
large ofenses.
Even in the light of these explanations the
criminal record of the Northern negro is very
discreditable, for more is Justly expected Of
colored population that resides in large towns
than in remote country districts.
The times. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1890-1903, 1891-05-16
NEGRO CONVICTS.

One of the grayest charges that has been
brought against the administration of justice
in the Southern States by fanatics like Cable
and by the radical press of the North has
been the supposed harshness on the part Of
Southern judges in the manner in which they
have dealt with negroes who have come be-
fore them charged with crime. 1t has been
asserted again and again that the law has
been enforced far more rgidlY against the
blacks than against the whites and that in
almost every instance there has been dis
position to go to the furthest limits in the
treatment of the former when accused of a
violation of the criminal code.
To those who are familiar with the lax
ness that really prevails in our Southern COM
munities with regard TO Furnishing negroes for
the great ma ority Of crimes which they COM
NIT the assertion that our courts are too
harsh in dealing with them, or that the white
people are too ready to accuse them, will
appear wholly unfounded.
comparison of certain figures which show
the relative proportion of negro criminals at
the North and in the South throws very sig
nifcant light on this important point. For
instance in Mississippi the number of con-
victs is six to each ten thousand of the colored
population, while in Massachusetts, it is thirty
tive-that is, in the latter enlightened State
it is six times greater.
To each ten thousand negro inhabitants
the proportion of colored conyicts is twelve
in South Carolina. but ffty-four in
New Jersey; thirteen in Louisiana. but eighty
five in New York; fourteen in Virginia. but
ninety-eight in Nebraska fourteen in Arkan-
sas, but tifty-one in Illinois.
What is the explanation Of this very striking
difference? Is it possible that in the highly
civilized communities of the Northern States
the negro is more deprsyed and abandoned
than in the benighted communities of the
South This is the only inference that can
be drawn If the statement OF Northern negro
philists is nccurate-namely, that the Southern
people are harsh in their administration of the
criminal law with reference to the negro Iftbis
were true the proportion of colored criminals

MIR. BLAINE's ILLNESS.

Mr.. Blaine is Republican, and has prooa-
bly done more towards keeping the hepuoh-
han party alive and respectable than any
other one member of the organization; sun
every thinking man in the country without
regard TO party has heard with sincere regre'
Of his recent illness. and that it is more seri-
Gus than at first supposed.
There is no doubt of the fact that he Is by
long odds ahead in brain and intellect OF any
other leading Republican in the United
States and is certainly far in advance OF all
the rest of the Cabinet in those qualities
which 20 to make up the statesman. Al

and for that reason he was at one time rather
a dangerous man 20 be intrusted with affairs
Of State Of heavy responsibility, as
he was likely TO permit his zeal and
ambition to outrun his discretion
no is now. under the mellowing influence of
advancing years. about the safest and most
conservative member Of the present Govern
ment. Every one must admit that he has adj
ministered the Office Of Secretary of State
with signal ability, and oil must acknowledge
that in the recent complication with the
Italian Government, although he started out
rashly, and thereby really led Italy into assum-
ing more clustering position than she would
otherwise have done, in the end he played
the Italian minister with such skill as 10 win
a great triumph for American diplomacy. 1t
was his longheadedness and sagacity. too,
which suggested and secured the reciprocity
clause of the Mckinley bill. the only feature
of that law which saves it from ABSOLUTE and
complete abomination. He has. in word,
far outshone all of his Cabinet cOntempora-
res. and. in plain truth. has been the only
person either actually or remotely connected
with the present Republican regime who
has done anything whatever to redeem the
administration from the charge of general
Mandy pambyness and mischief.
Should anything serious happen to Secre-
tary Blaine, therefore, or even should he be
required to withdraw for any length of time
from public life. it will be q source of genuine
regret to every man who has the honor and
welfare of the country at heart He can lily
be spared from his post of duty. for without
his brain and experience to guide the ship Of
State she will be apt to drift about most help
lessly. And if by death or disability he should
be forced TO retire permanently. although a
formidable rival for the presidential nomi-
nation would be removed, no one would have
greater cause to deplore the fact than Presi-
dent Harrison.
