meeting the confidence snd sp.
probstion Of this island. slthough
the appointment of eertsin men
to Office snd the dismissal OF
others hiss occSsioned some muir
muring. Il is to be hoped that
the Government Will be both wise
snd cautious in this matter, snd
select only such men as sre worthy,
cspsble snd honest. Clesr merit,
worth, and sbility come in as part
and parcel OF ones fitness for office.
1t IS only good men, stsuneh and
true. that sre needed ST the front,
snd people care very little which side
Of politics they are On, or if they rep
resent sny side, so long as they are
true and fearless in dischsrging their

rock, snd settle up this matter in
such S manner IS TO prevent the pos
sibility Of any future trouble.
There sre on Hswaii quite & num-
Der OF things that are worthy Of
mention. First OF foremost come
the public schools Under the ad
ministration Of our worthy fnspec
tor.General and his efficient corps of
teachers, the public schools OF this
nation hsye been much improved
and are still improving. In all the
the public services OF this nation,
there is no brighter picture, no more
gratifying source OF pleasure then to
witness the progress that mas been
made in the schools, particularly in
this district. The scholars now, in
stead Of wasting their time are ad-
vsncing IN knowledge, and have
made such progress in penmsnship,
free hand drawing, and other
branches OF learning as to astonish
both teachers and scholars These
gratifying results have been brought
about by well directed course Of
study and hard work, and it's a great
credit TO all concerned.
