year a great many Of them
will visit the islands going to,
or coming from Chicago but
it must be borne in mind that
the Worlds Fair is not a per
manent show. After that is
over there will be a greater
drop in tourist travel to Homo
lulu than there was in the
sugar business, land conse-
quently every other business
here) after the Mckinley bill
was put into operation. We
must find relief through some
more permanent channel and
it is within the power Of the
wise men at the big house to
help the country, the working
man, the merchant and them
selves. Here is the way:
There are thousands of
acres of land in the Kingdom
lying idle and the laws are
such that they will continue so
unless a certain resolution is
passed. During the present
week a bill will be introduced
authorizing the disposal Of
certain of the crown lands in
tracts suitable for the farmer.
This done and the fact made
known to the tourist we will in
a few years, see the islands
dotted with the houses Of the
small farmers-the back bone
of any country. The product
of these farms will add to our
exports and make living
cheaper for the working man.
1t will add to the revenue of
the country through taxation
and give us a class of citizens
of whom the country may be
proud. We may not see the
direct benefit; it would be sell
fish if the Legislation was simply
for the present generation.
Small farms have been a boon
to the United States-they
have done every thing for
France. And we sell farming
implements.

We LEARN from private sources
that the cane borer has attacked
banana trees in Hilo and Hama
kua. The banana patch of the
Hilo Boarding School is suffering
very grievously, almost every other
tree being affected. The ravages
of the insect are destructive in the
extreme, and a tree which is at
tackled very speedily succumbs
and dies. Brazilian as we'll as
Chinese bananas are invaded. It
is astonishing that the cane borer
should flourish in the acrid and
bitter juice of the banana, and so
far as our informant has been able
to learn, the circumstance is I'M
precedented. 1t would be interest
ing to know if such is really the
case.

HE'S A FARMER CANDIDATE.

Record of Claude Matthews, Nominee for
Governor of Indiana.
The Democrats of Indiana have chosen
a farmer candidate for governor in the
person of the Hon. Claude Matthews, of
Vermilion county. Though he has held
Office hitherto and been a man of note
in the politics of the state. for many
years, he is still distinctively a farmer
candidate, and in a truer sense than
most to whom that title is applied, as
farming has been the business of his life

years ago and received but a common
school education, but habits Of close OBJ

HOUSE NOTES.

The following correspondence
took place in the House yesterday
regarding the Registration bill. 1t
contains food for thought.
Q. What do you thing Of this
Dutch Russian registration sys-
tenn?
A. Is i not better to submit to
it than to amend the Constitution
in order to legislate against class?
Counter Query. Is it not BEST to
do neither?
Noble Neumann stated yester-
day in the House that the fact that
Rep. Kamauoha opposed a bill was
a strong point in its favor.
The native members calling
"Ninau" as Noble Neumann rose to
speak, the latter said, "That's ex-
actly what l propose to speak on,
something which very few of you
do"
The suggestion is made that
Rep. AshfOrd's report on the Regis
tration bill be engrossed and de-
livered as Fourth of July grafton.
By queer coincidence Petition
No. 316 has just 316 signatures.
Ashford and Neumann had a
deadly encounter in the House
yesterday. The air was blue for q
while, but when the smoke cleared
away, it was found that both of the
windy combatants were more
frightened that hurt.

SIX-PAGE EDITION
TUESDAY, AUGUST Is, 1892.

WE PRINT this morning a first
installment of the evidence in the
great case of the Waikapu Sugar
Co. and the Hawaiian Commercial.
1t is derived directly from the
notes of the official stenographer,
which were not obtainable earlier,
owing to the absence of the gentle
man named on Kauai, and will be
found of great interest to our read
ers, who will be able, as soon as
the evidence is all before them to
form for themselves some judgment
on the merits of this complicated
action.

Yesterday Rep. Ashford present
ed report all by himself, as mi
nority Of the committee on Bill No.
81. The object of this bill is to
compel every male resident of the
Kingdom of whatever nationality
above the age of thirteen TO be reg
istered. Every such person is fur
nished with a certificate of registra-
ton, which must be renewed at
regular intervals. Changes of en-
ployment, residence, etc, must be
duly brought to the notice Of the
authorities. This system of regis
tration, common enough in Europe,
is very repugnant to Anglo-Saxons,
and the idea of importing it into
this Kingdom is so startling,
though not now mooted for the
first time. that the vigorous protest
embodied in Rep. Ashford's report
is nothing to be wondered at. Yet
after all, is it not better for
white men to submit to the irk-
someness of such provisions than
to abandon constitutional provis-
ions which have been settled for
centuries, in order to enable them
to legislate against yellow men?
The consideration Of the bill has
been postponed until after that of
the Constitutional Amendments,
and we shall recur to the subject
later.

IN THE HOUSE.

Noble Marsden presented a reso-
luton in the House yesterday
which is certainly a step in the
right direction. 1t calls for the
appointment of a committee to in
quire why so many of the deaths
reported by the Board of Health
are from "cause unknown" and
suggests as a remedy for the exist
ing evil law requiring that "no
interment shall take place without
the cause of death being estab-
lished."
The shockingly large percentage
of deaths from unknown causes
has often been dwelt upon in these
columns and requires no further
comment now. 1t is gratifying
that the matter is to be made the
subject Of Legislative inquiry, and
it is to be hoped that the commit
tee will prosecute their labors with
energy and hit upon something
which will obviate the evil. One
is not specially impressed at first
blush, with the suggestion of the
resolution. Is the rite of burial to
be denied to people the cause of
whose death remains unascertain-
able? This is a proposition neither
rational nor hygienic. In the pres
ent state Of science, a conscientious
physician, be he never so skillful,
cannot always certify to the cause

tive and intelligent men, as we'll as gen.
. eral reading, have so far supplied the
defects of early education that he is a
man of considerable culture. He re-
moved to Indiana in early manhood, To-
Gated in Vermilion county and soon
became noted as a successful farmer
and stock dealer. His standing with his
neighbors was so high that he soon be-
came a power in local politics, and in
that close and very political state such
local strength is never long neglected.
He was nominated for the legislature III
a county spoken of as "hopelessly Re-
publican" and his unexpected success
made him a power in the state.
In 1882 he was nominated for senator
from the district composed of Parke and
Vermilion counties, and though Parke
usually has Republican majority of
600 and Vermilion of 800, he cut this
down about one-half. In 1890 he was
nominated again for the same place,
but before the campaign opened the state
convention nominated him for auditor
of state and he was elected. The fact
that he then received the unanimous
ana enthusiastic support OF Jne drmerS
Alliance no doubt had much to do with
his recent nomination for governor.
His place in Vermilion county, in the
1oveliest part of the Wabash valley, is
the ideal home of a gentleman farmer.
1t is also the home of a very practical
farmer. Personally Mr.. Matthews is
one of those men of whom the Hoosiers
say, 1.-The nearer you get to him the bet
ter you like him." His tenants and en-
ployees are always his most enthusiastic
supporters. He has been fairly prosper
Gus in business, and his family and So
cial life is pleasant and attractive. In
conversation he is ordinarily pleasant,
but as a speaker he is singularly effect
i've, his style being plain, direct and in
cisive, with occasional touches of home
~ eloquence-iE short, the kind of speech
that is most effective among farmers.
The oil Of grape seeds has been found
to be so valuable for certain purposes as
to warrant its extraction at considerable
expense, and a new industry viii soon
be developed.

of death, unless be confines him
self to generalities.
If the suggestion of the resolu-
ton, however, requires some modi-
fication, it still contains the kernel
Of sound idea, and this the COM
mittee appointed yesterday will
probably in the course of the next
few months expand into a bill.

should receive their earnest
support. Other sources of
income having been legis-
lated beyond our control
by the United States we must
throw open our gates to the
tourist and induce him with
clever pictures by pen and
camera to visit us, and show
him the greatest wonders of
the world.
Properly managed the Blu
reau Of Information would be
of untold benefit to the Islands.
But in addition to the estab-
lishment of a bureau in San
Francisco arrangements could
be advantageously made with
Thomas Cook & Son for plac-
ing Hawaii on their list of
tours. We speak from eX-
perience when we state that
this firm has made more tou-
rists comfortable in every nook
and corner of the world than
has been done by any other
agency in the universe.
So much for the business
men to attend to and they will
probably do it all, but is it not
possible for the Government
to take a hand and help the
merchant out of the difficulty.
Switzerland, we are told, de-
rives most of its support from
tourist travel. The support
must be weak when the presi-
dent of the republic has only a
$1,000 job. A country needs
more than tourists to make it
thrive. Twenty years ago the
people of Jacksonville, Palatka,
Green Cave and St. Angus
tine in Florida, lived during
the winter months on Northern
Consumptives and alligators,
and in the summer they did
nothing but "jist sot around
and take quinine. Florida
was a good place for invalids
and occasionally one of them
would take on a new lease of
life. The success of the SAM
tariums along the St. Johns
river tempted the people Of
certain localities in Georgia
and South Carolina to start
opposition health resorts with
the result that large portion
Of that class of travel has
dritted toward Thomasville,
Georgia and Aiken, South
Carolina.
But Florida had something
beside its advantages as a re-
sort for people with dislocated
puliminary organs. The in
genins Yankee saw something
more than Alligators in the
Everglades and to see was to
act. Nearly all the swamp
land in the State has been re-
claimed and sold to farmers
who now have thriving orange
groves where miasma had been
the only product. Through
its tourist travel Florida has
increased its land valuations
forty millions of dollars in the
last decade and placed the
state on a financial basis.
The retaining the swamp
lands was the direct result of
the tourist business and, had
it not been for this the state
Government would have sat
down by its fireside and seen
its obligations spring up, bios
som and grow to a ripe old
age and eventually become
outlawed.
AS a health resort the Ha-
waiian Islands are superior to
Florida. Every-other.day ague
and quipine which go hand-in-
hand insFlorida are compare
lively unknown to us. AS a
wonder land we're recognized
365 days in the year as the
greatest show on earth"
Here are two features which
should tempt both health
seekers and Kodak hends. But
in encouraging only these two
classes what is the result? The
invalids are made strong and
then go home to spend their
