THE CENSUS.

The Census Report we published
Tuesday shows that the population
of the Hawaiian Islands ,on the
28th of December last was 1890,
of all nationalities, as compared
with S0,578 of the census of 1884,
or an increase of 9,412 or II per
cent. in six years.
By nationalities, Hawaiians show
total of 81, 436 in 1890, as against
1904 in 1884; a loss of 5,57S, or
nearly IA per cent, in that short
period; very serious consider
alton.
The next class. defined as Half
castles, have risen from 4,218 in
1884 to 6,186, or more than As per
cent. Hawaiian born of foreign
parents have increased from 2,04O
to 1896, or, if they have been clas-
sified alike in both enumerations,
they have more than trebled.
Americans have decreased by
1873, OF near 3 per cent. British
have increased their numbers by
81 individuals. Germans are re-
duced by $50, or more than one
third their number. French num-
bers have fallen from 1872 to 20.
Of the two great Asiatic races,
the Chinese have been reduced from
1887 to 1880, or in round num-
bers, only two-thirds of the China
men who were here in 1884 are Gn
person or by successor) here now.
The japanese, on the other hand,
have come in to the number of
1924, of whom 2,261 are women.
We count at present q, $3.50 Asia
tics, of whom 1900 are females,
whereas in 1884 there were 1903,
with an altogether insignificant
number of females.
The fully detailed and completely
classified census is not yet avail
able.

LAST OF THE TAHITI SOVEREIGNS.

The death of King Pomare V. Of
Tahiti has been recently announced
and though not of great interna-
tional interest, really does open q
new era as to the relationship be-
tween Tahitians and their rulers
the French.
The " Society Islands," so named
by Cook have a longer and in some
respects more eventual history
than any other South Pacific
group. Discovered by the Portu-
guese navigator De Queiros or De
Quiros in 1906, they were lost
sight of till Commodore Byron the
poets grandfather, foul weather
Jack his crew called him, sighted
Tahiti in 1865 and two years later
Capt. Wallis visited the island.
1t was at Tahiti that Bligh col
lected the breadfruit trees which
he was to take to the West Indies,
and thence he sailed in 1889 In the
Bounty on the ill-starred voyage
which was closed by the mutiny of
her crew. and the final Wrecixinp
of the ship on Pitcairn's Island.
In 1853 Tahiti, then named by
Wallis King Georges Island, was
chosen for the observation of the
transit of Venus, and Cook being
appointed, with Mr.. Greene, to
observe the transit, spent several
months about these islands and re-
turned to England in 1771.

The Ia Leo and other native
papers state that there will soon be
a change Of Cabinet, and even pub
lish the list of their new ministers.
So far as we can ascertain, there
has been no action on the part of
the Sovereign or of the Cabinet,
with the design of effecting such a
change; nor can there be, during
the absence of the Legislature,
which body alone has the power to
dismiss the Cabinet, by vote of
want of confidence. That there
has been dissatisfaction with the
ministry is well known, but to
change its personnel can only be
accomplished by securing the resig-
nation of at least two ministers,
which might force the resignation
Of the others. Any other mode
would be a revolutionary act, and
even this might be so considered
by the constitutional advisers of
the crown.

AMERICAN POLITICS.

LONDON, July 26.-An interview
with Chauncey NJ. Depew was pub.
Iished in London paper on Sun.
day morning. Depew deprecated
the suggestion that he was likely
to be the man to champion the G.
publican cause in the next Presi-
Dental election in the United
States. He said he believed Harri-
son would carry the election as
the Republican candidate. "Mr.
Blaine" he continued, ais the
strongest man politically, the most
popular, but still, in my belief,
Harrison will be renominated.
That is my decided opinion, no
matter what candidates other than
Harrison may be spoken about"
When asked who the Democrats
were likely to nominate, Depew
said he believed Cleveland was the
most likely candidate, but that the
Democrats would not be as unan-
imous for Cleveland as the Repub-
LEANS would be for their candidate.
Bad times, Depew said, would dis
appear under the assured prosper
ity of the farmers. The Mckinley
tariff will do very great deal to
carry the election for the Republi-
cans. Especially will the recipro-
city clause do great deal. Harri-
son would win on the tariff and
silver questions. Certainly the
Republicans erred In passing
the Mckinley bill just before
an election. The worst effects
Of the bill were felt at once
just in time to cause a Republican
defeat. But it was not a Democra-
tic majority, but a majority of
Democrats and cranks. American
politics were very mixed just then.
Now they are clarifying and the
benefits OF the Mckinley law are
becoming felt. AS an illustration
the Farmers Alliance is an out
come.
"Then L am to understand the
Republicans will stand strongly by
the tariff question:"
Certainly. You will ask me
what programme Democrats are to
oppose to us. On this point they
will advocate a modified form of
free trade; tariff for revenue, not
protection, sufficient tariff to keep
the Government going without any
regard for safeguarding American
Now let me pass to
what will be the second plank in
the fight for the Presidency. 1
mean the silver question, or bime-
tallism, as you would call it IN
Upon the silver ques-
ton the Republicans are practically
while the Democrats
are divided among themselves.

On THE fifth page appears an
interesting article read by Justice
S. B. Dole before the Socia. Science
Association, on one of the import
ant questions now before the Ha-
waiian people - how to provide
small holdings for such as wish to
obtain them. All are aware that it
has become very difficult to pur-
chase land either in the city for
dwellings, or in the country for
farm homesteads. Many who would
ouy land, if procurabIe, are COM
PEELED to do without it or secure
leaseholds at extravagant rent
rates. Mr.. Dole's paper is devoted
to the discussion of this subject,
than which none is now more i'm
pOrtant to the well-being and pros.
perity of Hawai- lei.

OUR readers are aware that two
commissioners have been appointed
by the British Government, and
two by the American Government,
to act as arbitrators In the Behring
Sea question, which has been a
bone of contention between the two
nations for the past few years. The
British commissioners sailed in juno
and the American commissioners
IN July, in vessels specially char
tered for the purpose, to visit the
Behring Sea. The instructions to
the latter are "to collect all Access
sible information upon the subject
of breeding places, effects of pela-
gIc sealing, diminution of the num-
Der of seals, proper lines Of de-
marcation in the event that close
seasons are regarded as necessary,
and the proper months to be in
Guided in such seasons" All the
commissioners are expected to visit
all points where the seals breed,
and ascertain as nearly as can be
done, their habits and haunts-ln-
deed, everything necessary to g
full understanding of the matter
which they are expected to discuss
and settle.

In 1899 King Pomare coded thu
district of Matavai to some Eng
lish Wesleyan missionaries, ant
after his death the. missionaries
spread the Protestant religion
throughout Tahiti with stations OF
the other islands. Later on some
French Roman Catholic mission
aries appeared, and in 1886 planted
a mission at Papeete, and soon
strife and confusion ensued.
At this time the native sovereign
was Queen Pomare. a babtised
Christian and professed protestant,
the queen was largely under the
influence of the English mission
aries and the British Consul, Prit-
chard, and whether instigated by
them or no, the queen proclaimed
the expulsion of the French mis-
sionaries, and expelled they were
and forbidden to return. Just then
the Syrian difficulty had occasioned
great jealousies between the courts
Of England and France, and directly
the news from Tahiti reached
Paris, French admiral was dis
patched to reinstate the mission
aries, and France insisted on the
recall of Mr.. Consul Pritchard,
which England refused. However,
the French admiral landed his
priests under the shelter of his
guns and, by Pritchard's advice,
Queen Pomare hauled down her
flag.
After nearly coming to blows,
compromise was effected between
England and France, Pritchard
was appointed to another post,
matters smoothed over and
French protectGrate over Tahiti
and some of the windward islands
established, which was extended
in 1889 to the Toward portion of
the group.
The death of Pomare has had
the effect of annexing the islands
to France, without any pretence of
protectorate.
These islands very nearly met
the same fate, on the same grounds,
at the hands of the same admiral.
Had Hawaii fallen into the hands
Of Admiral DupetiI Thouars, as
they did into those Of Lord George
Paulet, there would have been but
little Restoration Day to rejoice
over.
The Society Islands have no
great commercial or strategical
value. They export about S5OO,OOO
worth Of cotton, copra and pearl
shells, most Of which goes to Great
Britain.

us some useful things last
week; articles needed by every
one.
Do you have much trouble
carving a fowl? Some people
do because they don't know
how to go about it, and others
who do understand it, haven't
the right sort of knife to do it
with. Our Eastern buyer sent
US some +" Jointers per last
steamer that are just the thing
for the work. Stick the blade
in the fowl and it finds the
joints all right without any help
from anyone. They are in
ivory handles and can be al
most given away.
Another good thing for the
household is the " family glue
pot. A handy little thing, no
trouble to anyone; just fill
the container with hot water
(the glue is already in the glue
pot) and before you can say
Scat " the preparation is
ready, and you can cement a
broken engagement or any
thing else.
We've something for gro
GERS too Cheese Boxes, nice
ones with wire cloth fine
enough to exclude anything in
the creeping line. Another
thing for either grocers or pri-
vate families. We refer to
wooden covers for hourbarrels.
Bird Cages plenty, now.
Brass or painted, cheap or ex-
pensive; you can get what you
want. Our brass ones are
made with a sort of false bot
tom which prevents the bird
escaping when you clean the
cage. If you are fond Of your
bird this is the kind of cage
you want.
Which do you prefer, plain
glasses or those with your mi
tial engraved on them :? You
can get the initial ones from
us as cheap as the plain ones
and very much handsomer.
We've imported a stove sui
table to the requirements of
restaurant keepers or a large
family. 1t looks as though it
would be a good thing for any,
one who cooks. We prefer
the Fischer steel range but it's
4 trifle more expensive at first
but saves enough fuel in the
ong run to pay for itself.
