"REMINISCENCES OF W. C. PARKE.

On our table lies a very hand
somely bound and printed book,
the work of the University Press
of Cambridge, Mass. 1t is entitled
Personal "reminiscences of William
Cooper Parke, and Is edited by his
son, W. G. Parke of this city. The
book, PREDATORY note and all, is in
perfect taste and cannot fail to be
of value to all who are interested
in the course of public affairs in
these Islands. These "reminiscences
begin with the date of Mr.. Parke's
appointment as Marshal in 1850
a position which he held thirty
four years-and cover a period
from that date until 1865. They
furnish some entertaining chapters
of more OF less unwritten Hawaii
an history, and to the future
historian will rank as "original
documents" as they are occupied
exclusively with scenes in which
Mr.. Parke was directly concerned
as actor or eye-witnesses. The
table of contents, which is as fol-
lows, gives fair idea of the scope
of the work:
My Appointment as Marshal.
The First Election of Representa-
tives, by Ballot.
The Marks Conspiracy Case.
The Ship Game-Cock and her Pas
sengers.
Movement for Reciprocity in 1852.
The Sailor Riot of 1852.
The PRONUNCIATION of the COnstitu-
ton of 1852.
The First Case of SMALLPOX in the
Hawaiian Islands.
The SMALLPOX Epidemic of 1858.
The Report of the Royal Health
Commissioners.
The Death of Kamehameha III. and
Accession of Kamehameha ".
The Tug Pele.
My Visit to the States in 1855.
The Marriage of Kamehameha ".
The Yacht Themis.
Kaona, the Religious Fanatic, and
his Rebellion.
Notes.
Most interesting is the account
of the police force when it came
under Mr.. Parke's control, in 1850.
1t was worse than at present if
possible. At that time there was
neither station house nor jail, and
the old fort had to do duty for
everything. The building was in a
highly demoralized condition, as
the French when leaving it in 1849
had smashed the windows, and
scrubbed wicked things on the
wall which must have been very
injurious to the morals of the pris-
oners. There were no cells prop
erly called, and prisoners were
crowded together in large numbers
into few rooms and guarded as
we'll as might be. Mr.. Parke
organized and disciplined the force
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1892-01-08

and introduced many improve
ments. The position OF the police
was no siDecure in those days,
when the whale ships we're packed
in the harbor from the entrance to
the wharvcs, rs thick as sardines
in box, and 5000 sailors were on
shore all bent upon coloring the
town scarlet. The police force had
to be increased by the addition OF
twelve foreigners and special po-
lice force was organized to assist
in cases of emergency, thus furnish
ing a precedent to the organiza-
ton of a similar body in 1890 as a
precaution against the anticipated
revolutionary attempts of r. W.
Wilcox.
We might fill columns with ex-
cerpts from this interesting volume,
but advise our readers to read it
for themselves. The book has the
vividness and directness of an eye
witness account, and must be read
to be appreciated. 1t is valuable
memorial of thirty-four years OF
honorable public service.

We publish this morning the
platform and candidates of the
National Reform party, as adopted
by the Mechanics Union. A rati-
fcation meeting of the Hui Kalai-
alma will be held tonight.
The ticket is the same as that
published yesterday morning in
this journal, with the exception of
the candidate for representative IN
Ward /.
The platform as published is a
rough draft, but it contains the sub
stance of the matter. In general, it
may be said that this declaration of
principles contains much that is
sound, though some of its articles
are not free from ambiguity. We
regret to say that it is impossible to
extend this commentator to the
candidates. Taken as whole,
they cannot be said to make a
ticket commanding the respect and
confidence of the community.

CONCERNING ROAD BOARDS.

The nominations for Road Board
in this district present very dis
couraging outlook for Honolulu
roads, and are not at all adapted to
impress anyone with the value of
the new law. We do not mean to
say anything against the character
of the nominees; the majority of
them appear to be perfectly re-
putable persons. Mere respect
ability, however, is not sufficient
qualification for a road board
Where we are particularly anxious
to see responsibility is in the roads
themselves, though of course we do
not undervalue it IN the board.
The nominees of the Liberal party
are clerks in stores; their time
and thought is presumably all re-
CURED in their present employ
ment, and it is hardly to be sup
posed that they can abandon their
present occupation in order to per-
form the duties of an unsalaried
Office. The same may be SAID of
most of the proposed nominees
of the other parties. Two of them
are brietless barristers who, it is
true, could probably spend the
whole day in the streets without
any great loss of income. But could
they do it for nothing? A lawyer
without brief is generally short

THE Portuguese Union informs
it's readers that the Supreme Court
has declared the Restriction Act of
80 unconstitutional, and that there
fore, there now is nothing to hinder
unlimited Chinese immigration, and
consequent competition with the
Portuguese laborers. Whether this
statement is falsehood or a blum
der We do not know, but in either
case, the object of it is perfectly
clear, being of course to stir up
hatred against the planters as the
assumed cause of all the ills which
beset US. The fact is that the
Union has been revealing in the
ignorance of the general public as
to what it is doing and saying, and
has been abusing this rare opportu-
nifty to the full. We shall make it
q point, from time to time, to turn
the light of publicity on these do
ings, with the laudable motive OF
shaming the paper into honesty or
the semblance of it.
