TRY A MhNDAMUS.

There is an impression out that the
vote by which the Spreckels subsidy
was granted had the binding quality Of
a contract between the Oceanic line
and the Government Of the Hawaiian
group. At least that WAS the excuse
given for not cutting the bonus eff when
Mr.. Spreckels was here waving his due
bill and blowing a tin bazoo with the
idea that he could rouse the dead
little in advance of Gsbriel.
Public opinion was then, as it is now,
in favor of the proposed excision, but it
bowed to what was alleged to be the
law of the case. We fail to learn, how
ever, that the law has been given any
great amount Of inq Try. Would it not
be well, before paying any more money
to Spreckels to be used by him in de-
priving Honolulu Of the benefits of
steamship competition, to get formal
opinion in the subsidy matter from the
Attorney-General or by means Of a
mandamus placed upon further pay
ment OF the gratuity secure the judg
ment of the Supreme Bench We
should like TO see the Annexation
Club take up the latter recourse.
Surely, it is time for something or
somebody beside the STAR and AdVer-
tSsr to show back bone in the fight
with the Spreckels monopoly; and
the Club has plenty of it ready for use.

sources of supply, he supposed peop'e
would have to wait until 1t rained.
Councilman Brown asked if any
member of the Cabinet knew Of any
d scrimination by any of the steamship
lines touching at this port. Minister Da-
mon replied that he had heard that pas.
senger rates had been raised on the
Pacific Mail and O. & O. lines but
beyond that he knew nothing. A
desutory conversation then ensued on
the subject of steamship lines but no
action was taken OF suggested
The Judiciary. Committee reported
on the &C, relating to the acquiring of
land for the purposes OF the Board of
Health and recommended its passage,
but that it should be confined to Molo-
kai alone.
This opened up a discussion on the
whole water system of tn city, which
was denounced SIS being inadtqu lc to
It's size. Minister Damon st.tyd that
the Govtrnmcnt had the mater under
consideration, but owing t. the small
ness of the malns-f.ur inches-on
Beretania and King streets, nothing
could be done at present He Sug
gested the laying of eight.inch mains
through the principal streets. Mr.
Young advocated immediate acti n,
saying that 1t would take SIX months
to get the necessary pipe from
Europe. Mr.. Wsterhouse thought the
Council would be only too g!ad to APP
proprlate the money necessary fer a
proper system. 1t is understood the
Government will formulate S, me plar
shortly to improve the present water
supply.

taken up on its second reading. Min
lister Dlmon offered an amendment tC

WHERE REFORM is NEEDED.

The buying public, which usually
has to pay something extra for supplies
to make good tradesmen's losses by
swindiers OF the Dunbar and Won Berg
stripe, has an interest in the reform Of
the local credit system. Altogether
too much trust" prevails in Honolulu
stores for the good OF the merchants
themselves and for people generally.
Half a dozen times year sumeb }dy
runs away from this coral strard-ln
spite of the omniscent Lunlng and
the passport system - leaving the
butcher, the baker aud the Candlestick
maker to mourn their losses and mark
up their remaining goods. Many OF
these peripatetic miscreants could be
picked out on landing by one OF
Pinkerton's detectives if we had him,
and more of them could be cut out OF
their opportunities to make dishonest
livelihood by the exercise Of common
business prudence The fellow, Won
Berg, who operated here until the
Oceanic took him to parts unknown
was a transparent crock. His methods
were as crude as those OF a prentice
hand, consisting Of an assurance that
lacked cunning, a boastfulness that
carried its own refutation and an eX
travagance that was in no way com.
patible with the amount f cash dis
played He ought not to have secured
credit fer a loaf of Chinese bread OF
for cracked wash bowl-lnd yet he
lived here on the fat of the land and
escaped $4,000 ahead of the game.
The merchants and tradesmen could
regulate this sort Of thing by organizing
a Board of Trade which should adopt
American business rules to which all
retail dealers should subscribe This
system works well, with its blacklist
and other time-trisd features, in Am
erican cities and could be put to excel
lent use here Its chief precautionary
rule would of course be the eXamina
ton, by a standing committee of the
Board of the credentials of every
stranger who asks for credit here on an
extended scale--the decision of the
committee binding all members of the
organization. The business antece-
dents of such strangers could also be
looked up through Dun and Brad
streets agents, or the United States
Collection Bureau,

The Holomua solemnly affirms, with
its hand on its heart and its ears erect,
that it will forever speak of the Execu-

in the attempt. Let no man, therefore,

If it cheers the soul of any newspaper
or newspaper man to so designate a
structure which is inferior in all respects
to the average home Of an American cr
English millionaire of the fourth class,
why, let the matter 90. Perhaps the
