Speaker Crisp's Snap Jud gmcnt

The speaker OF the house Of repre-
sentatives, in his eagerness to help
along his friends the free silver men,
made a ruling which will astonish par
liamentarians tho world over.
This is probably the first timo that
tho presiding officer of legislative
body has held that business is in order
before the reading of the journal OF the
preceding session. Speaker Carlisle, as
earnest Democrat and certainly as
able man as Speaker Crisp, ruled that
this could not DO done.
In the debate in tho house last Mon
! day Mr.. Wilson, Of West Virginia, an
other rock-ribbed Democrat and skilled
parliamcntarian, made the point that
without the reading Of tho journal thoro
was no wayto know tina. the rulo on
which the speaker relied had not been
repealed at Saturdays session.

PERSONAL POINTS:


Count Douglas. one Of the members
of the German Reichstag, is rapidly ris-
ing in the estimation OF Emperor Will
liam, and may, according to reports.
become a member Of the imperial
cabinet. he is exceedingly wealthy,
and, as his name indicates, is descend
ant of the famous Douglases Of Scotland.
He was made a count by the old En-
peror William upon proving that his
first ancestor in Germany belonged to
tho noble Scottish house. Tho names
OF tombstone, Washington, and Mac
Donald are also to be found among the
mobiles Of Germany. EtSEi7s

the poor fellow was found unconscious
and nearly dead from hunger and ex-
posture. Ills hands, feet, ears, and noae

AN AGRICULTURAL BUREAU.

One of the best bills passed by
the Legislature this session is that
which creates an Agricultural Bu-
reau. Though an innovation here,
the institution is no novelty else
where, and it can hardly fail to
prove most useful. A principal OBJ
ject of this Bureau will be the ex-
perimenting in all kinds of trees
and plants, and cultivating in some
quantity those which are useful for
any purpose. Through the bureau,
an organized effort will be made to
introduce new industries and bring
about that Investigation of en-
pigments which is necessary to
the economic health of every ma
ton.
The work referred to has already
been carried on to some extent
through the Government nursery,
and has proved most useful. 1t
will now be carried still further.
Other work of the bureau will be
the investigation of plant diseases
and blights, the visiting of and re-
porting on homesteads and, in
general, whatever can promote the
the agricultural development of the
Kingdom. The law is of course an
experiment, and its actual opera
ton will show in what direction il
stands in need of amendment.

RESUSCITATED.

J. w. Kalua, who was con-
demned to death by all the Homo
lulu papers in turn, is not dead.
The ADvERTIsER-which is al
ways first in getting the news
killed him first, and now is the
first to resuscitate him. On in
speeding the obituary notices pub
lished in the columns of our
various contemporaries, we are
forced to conclude that they
were all rehashed" from
the account in this paper, and SO
we hasten to take all the blame.
We do not claim any thanks from
the Legislature for giving it's mem
bers a half holiday, and we dis
claim absolutely any responsibility
for the memorial services held at
Lahaina.
AS for Mr.. Kalua, we congratu-
late him heartily on not being dead
and hope that he may live to beat
"Oily" Bill at the next general
election.

We hasten to clear him from such
an imputation. He really belongs
to that class of small boy who be-
lieve that they can hoist themselves
out of the mud by their boot-straps
if they only tug long enough. His
golden or rather his paper -
dreams are now all dissipated. His
fond hope of rescuing Honolulu
from the grasp of cruel bankers is
postponed for another biennial per-
iod, and he is condemned to gnash
his teeth for another year at the
spectacle Of Bishop & Co. and
Spreckels & Co. refusing to loan
money on insufficient security, or
below the current rate of interest.

KILLED.

The Banking Bill has received
its death blow and the community
may breathe more freely again.
Yesterday the House put the mea-
sure to death by vote of 81 to IA.
The natives, contrary to all expect
alton, turned against the bill. No
white man voted for it except the
Horner family and Rep. Ashford,
and the latter has made the cause
of his Hawaiian brother so entirely
his own that philanthropy has all
but changed the color of his skin.
Yesterday the most dangerous
man within the borders of the Ha-
waiian Kingdom was the Hon. J. NJ.
Horner. Fifty thousand dollars
would not have been too much to
pay to get rid of him. Measured
in his own pet currency, $780, 00,-
900 would not have out-weighed
the evil which he intended to do.
To-day he is peaceful, innocuous,
a good citizen, a useful legislator.
We congratulate the country on a
danger averted, Mr.. Horner him
self on his restoration to a better
role, while we marvel at the power
of circumstances, which can work
so swiftly transformations so magi-
cal.
AS for Rep. Ashford, who has
been to Captain Horner such gal
liant lieutenant, one does not know
whether to pity or congratulate
No one would believe for an instant
that his advocacy of this bill is tc

SUNSET CLOVIS.
Most Brilliant Golden Hues can
Be Seen.

The beautiful sunset glows
which have been so brilliant for
the past few evenings, remind
many of those that appeared all
around the world soon after the
volcanic eruption of Krakatoa near
Sumatra a few years ago. These
now seen here are probably only
local, and may be caused by the
fresh volcanic smoke, gases, and
perhaps minute debris or dust now
being emitted from Mauna Loa,
which under the light southerly
airs are blown towards the end of
our group, instead of to the south
ward, where the trade winds blow
them. For several nights they
have appeared in the western sky,
stretching from west to south, and
painting the sky with the most
brilliant golden hues, which can
not fail to attract the attention
and charm the eyes of every lover
of nature.
