"The next thing on the list is the

Senator Cullom of Illinois arose to
question the regularity of this order
of business, but the convention sup
posing he had arisen to place
some one in nomination, com

EUROPE.

At few minutes after 9 o'clock
on the morning of January Nth,
the Lord Mayor of London re-
ceived despatch from the Prince
of Wales announcing the death of
the Duke of Clarence and Avon
dale, heir presumptive to the throne
of Great Britain and Ireland.
The toIling of the great bell of
st. Pauls announced the sad news
to the citizens of London.
The death of the Duke Of Clar-
ence places his brother Prince
George of Wales in the position of
heir presumptive. The Prince was
born June Sd, 1865, and at the age
of IA was entered, with his deceased
brother, as Naval Cadet on board
the training ship Britannica. In
due time the brothers were APP
pointed midshlpmen in FL. NJ. S.
Bacchante, and, in that ship, made
an extended cruise, visiting the
Mediterranean, and thence by
Teneriffe to the West Indies and
North America ; then by the east
of South America and the Cape of
Good Hope to Australia, FIJI,
Japan and China ; thence to the
Straits Settlements and Ceylon,
and home by the Red Sea and
Mediterranean.
Prince George has continued in
the naval service ever since and
has lately returned from the West
Indies where he commanded II. M.
S. Thrush.
He has always been very popu-
lar both in the service and in civil
life.
Cardinal Simeoni formerly Papal
Secretary of State and Project Gen
eral of the Propaganda died at

ceived of the death of Cardinal

CAN CHINESE CITIZENS VOTE?

This morning at 9 o'clock the
Supreme Court will hear argument
II the matter of the application of
L. Ahlo for Writ of Mandamus to
compel the Inspectors of Election
of the Fourth District to enter his
name On the voting list. The con-
tention of the petitioner will be
that under the late decision OF
the Court granting the right to
vote to persons convicted prior to
'87 of an offense which did not dis
franchise them under the Consti-
tuition of 1864, the same cannot be
refused other persons who were
qualified to vote under that Consti-
tuition. The matter is important
not merely because it involves in.
teresting points of law, but because
there are, we believe, not less thar
two or three hundred naturalizeC
Chinese in the kingdom whose
rights will be governed by the
decision in Ahlo's case.

The report of the meeting of the
Liberals last night, published this
morning, affords a fresh illustration
of the way in which G. w. Ash
ford lowers the character and tone
of every public discussion IN which
he is engaged. He used language
of Mr.. Kaulia last night which was
Objectionable, not merely because
it was an unwarrantable personal
attack on a respectable Hawaiian,
but because it was marked with a
grossness and vulgarity which
necessarily offend good taste, and
to which no one can permit himself
without sacrificing his instincts as
a gentleman.

stood to be in no way responsible
for the failure to put the names of
Noble voters on the list of voters

performance is attributed solely to
the Attorney General, and the
public will undoubtedly give him a
long credit mark for it. Here
after we shall never criticize any
one again for misinterpreting the
Election Law, since even the man
who drew it does not know what
it means. The gorgeous error in

THE CHILEAN SITUATION.

There is one aspect of the pos
sible war between Chile and the
United States which is of great in
terest to Hawaii. It is the fact that
Chile must know that in the end
numbers and great resources will
win; and consequently to accom-
plish anything vigorous and rapid
strokes must be made. OF course
Chile knows that it is only between
San Francisco and Honolulu that
the flag of the United States is
supreme. Here alone on the whole
earth does that flag do the carry.

Consequently here can be dealt not

not to be expected either that such

SUPREME COURT-OF INTEREST
TO VOTERS.
DEPT OF THE JUDICIARY.


Honolulu, III. l., Jan 27, 1890.
His Excellency LA. THURsToN, Min
lister of the Interior:
SIR-In continuation of our reply
of the 25th instant, we beg leave to
answer the remaining question as
follows:
SECOND QUESTION: II an employee
receives a sum less than $500 in
amount for the year, but receives
from his employer his board and
lodging, is it allowable to consider
the market value of such board and
lodging as being part of such en-
ployee's income, or are his wages
only to be the basis Of estimate?
The language Of the statute, being
likewise the words of the Constitu-
ton which is required to be con-
strued in giving an answer to the
question is, that the voter for Mobiles
''shall have actually received an in
come of not less than six hundred
dollars during the year next preced-
ing his registration for such cleo
| ton"
The one clear construction free
from embarrassment in its applica-
ton to all cases which might be put
would be that the elector must have
received $500. There are no words
indicating that an equivalent or
value may be counted for the $500
or a part thereof. The word ''actu-
ally" is not necessary to the sentence.
It is qualifying word or word of
emphasis, and we regard its force
to be that the prescribed amount
shall have been received strictly in
the terms Of the act. Its purpose
would seem to have been to exclude
all indirect modes Of counting up
the income to 5000 In the constitu-
ton of 1864, the language defining
the qualification required in candi
date for Representative is cor who
shall have an annual income of at
least two hundred and fifty dollars
derived from any property or
some lawful employment" and for
an elector, san income of not less
than $75 per year, derived from
any property or some lawful en-
ployment" It is known that the
operation Of these provisions was
countervailed by allowing construc-
tions which reckoned income as
something else than dollars actually
received" notably, by the expedient
of counting subsistence as income.
It seems to us that the words used
in the present constitution were dc
signed to exclude such previous con
structions.
When a departure is made from
the first obvious meaning of these
words, one is led to uncertain ground.
A duty would be cast upon the in
spectors of election Of determining
'the market value Of board and
lodging" What board and lodging
are worth depends on the quality of
them, which is very varying. The
more consideration we give to the
difficulties attending the questions
which arise when some other rule is
adopted than the simple one of ''dol
lars actually received" the more
} does it appear that this is the correct
and proper construction to be ad
b red to.
| We therefore answer the first part
Of the second question In the mega
tive.
