DRAINAGE FOR HONOLULU.

The present session of the Legis-
lature is, or ought to be, drawing
to close. Of the two great ques-
tons vital to the welfare of this
city, viz: water supply and drain
age, the former only has received
any attention. The report of the
committee on the water supply has
already been published, and the
names appended to that report are
sufficient guarantee for the &C
ceptance of it's conclusions, and in
great measure of it's recommends
tons; but the important question
of suitable system of sewerage or
drainage is as yet untouched.
A year and half hence, when
the next Legislature meets, the
soil of the city will have received,
and more or less absorbed, that
much more sewerage, and will have
advanced that much farther on the
way to saturation.
tits therefore an imperative duty
on all thoughtful people to begin
at once to positively take this mat
ter in hand. The best plan would
appear to be to appropriate a sum
of money, not necessarily large,
before the Legislature rises, to en-
able the Government to secure the
services of an expert accustomed
to deal with such problems as will
be propounded to him here; cause
him to examine into the whole
matter and draw up a report, stat
ing exactly what has to be done,
and how best to do it, with esti-
mated costs, and this report should
be placed in the hands of every
member of the Legislature imme-
diately on assembling. If this be
not done another session will be
taken up with discussing and de-
Gliding on preliminaries, all of
which might be perfected during
the interval.
The next Legislature could then
adopt, with or without amend
ments, the proposed plan, or deter
mine on some alternative scheme !;
otherwise the city will be left swell
tering in its own sewage for another
period, unless indeed typhoid or
cholera come to hasten matters
and set us to do in a panic that
which might be done deliberately
if begun at once. Even now there
is no time to lose. The work when
actually begun cannot be complet-
ed in day.
Again, we say it is the duty of
this Legislature before it separates
to put this all-important matter in
hand. The then Minister of Inte-
rior ought to lay before the next
Legislature a well-digested scheme
which may be acted on at once.
One thing is certain, Honolulu
must be thoroughly severed and
drained, and that before long, or it
will cease to be habitable.

Mr.. Charles 6. Eddy, vice president of
the Norfolk and Western railroad, fur
nishes to the Roanoke Times brief
statement OF the status of the sheep
growing industry along the line of that
road. He shows that during the year of
1891 the number of sheep, lambs and
pounds of wool shipped from all stations
on their line was: Sheep, 23,605 head;
lambs, 46,757 head, and wool, 372, 500
pounds. Mr. Eddy estimates the total
money value to the farmers at the ship
ping points is $670, 1877, SO that sheep
growing and wool growing is becoming
quite an industry in the Old Dominion.
These figures give the shipments only
from points on the Norfolk and Western
railroad. The number of cattle and
calves shipped for the same period
amounted to 1874 head.

Mr.. J. G.. Chamberin, the general

say no man could have been chosen by

Fatal Floods.

A dispatch from Nashville, Tennessee,
dated the 18th, gives the following dis
tressing account of the high waters
along the Mississippi river:
''The horrible loss of life across the
Mississippi State line grows more ap-
palling and the death list is constantly
increasing The water now covers the
land for seventy miles south of here.
Scores of houses, bodies of men, women
and children, together with those of
dumb beasts, are floating in the muddy
waters. Over 1900 people are home
less. The flood is caused by the sudden
rising of sixteen rivers, which form a
net work over North Mississippi Rats,
small boats and canoes were built by
the score and stocked with provisions.
Daring rescuers have started out to
carry aid to the sufferers. One raftsman
rowed SO miles last night with 26 bodies
piled up on his raft with no light but an
oil lantern to guide him. Every hour or
so a boatman or raftman comes into one
of the many landings with one to ten
bodies, swollen, discolored and some of
them beginning to decay. Sixty one
bodies of both sexes have been recovered
SO far The flood is beginning to recede
slowly. 1t is estimated that the damage
will amount to over two million dollars

Norfolk and Western Railroad.

Norfolk and Western Railroad.
The Baltimore Sun of the 18th sum
marizes the Forthcoming report Of Presi-
dent kimhalI, OF the Norfolk and West
ern Railroad Company, as follows:
The annual meeting Of the stockhold
ers of the Norfolk and Western Railroad
Company will be held in Roanoke, Va,
NAV 4, and President kiinball has issued
in advance preliminary report for the
information of the shareholders. Cons
sidering the business depression OF the
past year the showing Of the road is a
creditable one. During the year 1891,
the company operated an average OF
1,091 miles of road. The gross earnings
were 9,19S,049 and operating expenses
Sc, 900, 769, leaving q net income of 81,
200, 789, after paying interest charges on
funded debt and Car trust obligations.
The net earnings per mile were $2,913,
against $2,230 in 1885, despite the fact
that passenger and freight rates were
largely reduced. The earnings from
local traffic, that is. passenger and
freight traffic originating At Or destined
to points upon the line, were 624 per
cent. of the aggregate earnings. The
mineral traffic increased during the year
696, Obs tons over the previous year, and
aggregated 4,154 1884 tons. The coal and
coke traffic aggregated 3.282,61 tons,
against los, 800 tons in 1888. The ship
ments of iron ores were 539, 1889 tons, an
increase of 1886 tons, Or IL per cent. as
compared with 1890. The shipments of
pig-iron were 233, 800 tons, an increase of
47.746 tons, or 30 per cent. as compared
with $780, President Kimball regards
the outlook for the present year as ex-
ceedingly encouraging. and predicts in
creased prosperity for the road and the
country it traverses.

Another Suggestion.

The Washington Post OF the 10th, con-
tains The following paragraph in It's
Hotel Hobbies notes. which is worthy
/ Of a few words of comment:
"The Democrats Of Ohio" said Mr.
| Howard s3:axby, Of the Cincinnati Corr
/ nse1c5dg tIdzetie. think that no better
4 candidate for the Vice Presidency could
! be found than NJ d. Ingalls,, the popu>
! lar president Of the Chesapeake ana
| Ohio Railroad. He IS q strong man
mentally, a first class speaker, ana Or
| thodox on finance and all other great
questions from aDemocratic Standpoint.
| The suggestionof his candidacy fof the
place on the ticket has met with great
favor. The Republicans ont our way
have heard with pleasure that Editor
! Murat Halstead is going to succeed M.
Reid as ministe; to France, and trust the
report may be verified.
OF course this was Intended as a com
p!iment to Gen Ing.alls but when 1t IS
boiled down we do not know whether 1t
is one in fact Or not. Mr. Ingalls, OF Hls
friends would not consider it a promo
tion TO take him from the important
position he now liolds, relating to tie
public enterprises Of country and the de-
velopnlent of the material resources OF
the nation, and set him up as figure
head in the Senate chamber. As to
the question of public usefulness there is
no parallel between the two positions.
There may be more nominal distinction
in the Vice Presidency than in the Presl
dency of several great railway systems,
but in one sense there is u broader ana
81 more inviting field for brains aud use
fulness in the railway administration
than there is in the Presidency OF the
Senate There is mere need, too, for
Gen. Ingalls, where he is-a position diff
cult to fill, and for which very few are
qualified there would be for him
in the Vices Presidents chair-a position
which almost any politician could 1lll'
with an expert pfompter by his SIDE.
In short, Gen. ingalls, cannot be spared
from the great public enterprises with
which he is prominently associated, and
therefore the politicians had better look
to some Of their il to fill out their ticket
for 1892.

be horse blankets, for which there is
ready sale, and these will be completed

by machinery.
The warps, or cotton part OF the
