Timely Confession.

EDITOR BULLETIN:-
The Advertiser comes out this
morning again with one of its bold
lies, that the P. G.. has "proved it.
self the friend of the people," This
is correct of course if by "people"
we are to understand only the in
finitesimal number of the "family
compact" who seized the govern
ment with American help and rob-
bed the mass of the natives of all
their rights, and who have since
governed on the principle of Scratch
my back and I'll scratch yours"
Those Tiser's lies are not deserving
Of any notice; but what may be
worthy of attention, are the conf
dental hints dropped about "com-
plications that are now arising
around Hawaii" We have long been
expecting as much especially know
ing what the policy of the P. G. has
been, viz: to force annexation on
their own terms through menace of
foreign help. The P. G. have been
bent on annexation only in view of
preserving themselves in power, and
they thought that American jingo-
ism would be only too glad to ac-
cede to their terms. But when they
found that their calculations had
miscarried, they evidently looked
around to try to carry their threats
into executions; and there cannot be
any doubt, in the mind of any sensi-
BILE man, that to their Vaccinations
is due, for one, the recognition by
Russia. This move of the Russian
Government-without waiting for
the settlement of the matter pend
ing before the U. S. Government-is
certainly very extraordinary, and
cannot be considered as anything
else but a slight on America, and a
decisive step towards further inter
ference in the Hawaiian embroglio.
And when the Advertiser this morn
| ing comes out with the naive con-
fession that "the question now is to
Dhich Of the pOWers shall Hawaii fail, y
there can be no difficulty in believ-
ing that negotiations have really
been initiated with the various for
eign powers, to sell the stolen coun-
try to the best bidder, whether it be
England, Russia, or the Old Nick.
if he promises to keep our present
rulers the longer in power. True
Americans therefore had better open
their eyes in time.

The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1893-10-12

Our morning contemporary's
coach to the chancellor of the ex-
chequer says that since the Provi-
sional Government "has been in
power it has paid off the public in
debtedness to almost the last cent
and still has a surplus on hand, no
matter what its opponents may say
to the contrary" Never mind what
its opponents may say. Suppose
instead you tackle the official state.
ment of the Minister of Finance
(see weekly financial statement OF
this date), which states that the net
indebtedness of the country is
nearly four million dollars.
The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1893-10-12

The financial statement was ac-
cepted and placed on file.
Minister Damon read letter from
Theo. H. Davies & Co., agents Cana
dian-Australian Line, acknowledging
receipt of communication proffering
an advance Of one-half of expense
of despatching the S. S. Australia
three days in advance of regular
time. The firm return their deep
est thanks to the Government for
the assistance in question, as we'll as
for all its consideration and aid in
connection with the stranding of
the S. S. Miowera.
Minister Damon then read re-
port of Mr.. j. NJ. Oat, Postmaster
General, on his official tour of Maui.
He said Mr.. Oat would leave for
Hawaii on Friday to inspect the
post Offices and instruct postmas-
ters there as may be required.
Minister Damon remarked that he
had ordered the August bills paid,
and only the bills for September re-
mained to be paid. He would again
call attention of the Councils to the
irregularity prevailing in the matter
of public printing and advertising.
He had prepared a resolution which
he hoped the Councils would pass.
The resolution was to the effect that
each head of a department should
designate some one of his clerks to
attend to all advertising in his
department, and that all advertising
be ordered on forms prepared for
the purpose, no advertising bills to
be paid unless so ordered
Mr.. Waterhouse was glad the Min
lister of Finance had taken this mat
ter up. 1t had been under some
consideration of the printing com,
mittee.
Mr.. Brown supported the resolu,
ton. All printing and advertising
should be done by tender When
he was a member of the Attorney,
Generals staff, he noticed that there
was difference sometimes amount
ing to rs percent between bills from
different newspapers. When the
collector of one was shown the
lower rate of another paper, he
would say that was all right and
make it the same as the other.
Mr., Damon would hardly go SC
far as to have all advertising done
by tender. Let them make the pro
posed change for the present.
The resolution passed.
Minister Smith had resolution
regarding the place of holding the
terms Of the Second judicial Circuit
Court. After many years OF agita
tion to change the seat OF justice
from Lahaina to Wailuku, it wal
enacted that the June term be helc
at Wailuku and the December tern
at Lahaina. 1t was the prevailing
opinion ON Maui that both terms
should be held at Wailuku. Ill,
presented a resolution that the pro
priety Of SO altering the law as t.
have both terms held at Wailukl
should be referred To the Judiciary

In answer to a communication
from the Minister of the Interior,
the Board of Health states that the
rules requiring the port physician to
precede the pilot, in boarding an in
coming ship, we're suspended on
November "a last. The provision of
the Civil Code governing the pilots
action makes it his duty to imme.
diately put off to the vessel, and
ascertain for himself if any conta-
gious disease be on board before
boarding her. These facts wipe out
all excuses lately heard for the
slow coach methods of our pilotage
service.

WHY THE RUSSIAN FLAG WAS
NOT SALUTED.

On the I'd inst. this paper an
nounced that the Russian flag was
to be saluted that evening by the
Provisional Government battery, in
grateful return for the unqualified
recognition by the Russian Govern
ment of the Hawaiian Republic
as M. de Giers, the Russian Chan
cellor, called it. 1t grieves us at this
remote date to have to contradict
the announcement of the salute in
question. Although it was true
when it was made-our information
having been obtained at headquart-
ers-a fatal hitch occurred in the
arrangements. Thus: The Provi-
sional Government in qualm Of
self-abnegation thought fit at the
sixteenth hour of the day to consult
the United States Admiral on the
propriety Of marking its recognition
by the Russian bear with such Jubi.
lating roar of cannon-Austrian can
non at that, although they probably
wouldn't have told this to the Gear.
"Well," the Admiral said in effect,
~ don't see much harm in shooting
of your gleeful gratitude. But, my
dear fellows, really international
etiquette doesn't require that sort
of acknowledgment of diplomatic
courtesy" At all events, what the
Admiral said convinced our inexperi-
enced rulers that perhaps after all
they would only make themselves
absurd by shooting off their brass
mouths in republican ecstasy over
being noticed by the most absolute
monarchy in Christendom. They
would just use the Chancellor's
note as SO much more pap to
keep the organs alive, and quiet
ly evince their devoted gratitude
to Russia for her imperial nod
by means of a gilt-edged note
composed by their most expert
diplomatic scribe and written in
the finest fourishes of Mr. Ed
Stiles artistic calligraphy. For the
rest, have it franked "On z. g. Ser
vice." in a silk-lined envelope, but
with surcharged vermilion STAMP
on it as a contribution to the phil,
atelic album of one of the young de
Giers. Anyhow, the order for q
salute to the Russian flag was coun'
termanded, The facts leaking out
have become topic Of gossip among
American naval officers as we'll al
those Of the p. q. garrison.

MAKIKI PUMPING PLANT.
1t Raises a Strong Head of Crystal
Water.

The trial of the new Makiki pump
ing plant has proved more than
satisfactory. Its capacity was tried
yesterday afternoon, when Mr.. Alex
Young, Manager Honolulu Iron
Works, Minister King, Superintend-
ent of Water Works Brown and
others were present. The machinery
worked very smoothly, and there was
abundance of water. The suction on
the we'll is equal to thirteen feet
and reduces the natural head of the
well to 10 feet. This could be, and
was increased in the trial yesterday.
The pump worked at the rate of
100000 gallons of water in twenty
four hours. 1t is working to-day,
throwing out bright crystal water
OF excellent taste.

TROTTING RACE.
Between Schuman's Mare and Holm
gers Stallion.

There will be a trotting race at
Kapiolani Park on Saturday between
Gus. Schuman's imported pacing
mare Martha S. and Tom Hollinger's
stallion Charlie for purse of $3.50
a side. Both animals have been in
training since the date when the
match was made some time ago.
Charlie is the stallion who defeated
Macfarlane's Duke and is fine
piece of horseHesh. In Mr.. Schuman's
Martha S., Charlie will meet a Tartar
and good one too. Speculation is
rife and there is every promise of a
good race. The event, which will be
best 3 in 5, will take place at
O'Clock.

Minister Smith extended an invi-
tation from the President to the
members Of the Advisory Council,
for as many as chose to be present
in the council chamber at IL o'clock
tomorrow, when Captain Barker
and officers of the y. S. S. Philadel-
phia would make an official call on
the Ministers.
Mr.. Brown introduced an Act to
amend the Oahu Railway Act Of
1890, so as to extend the time for
building the railway the rest of its
route around the island for five
years; also to extend the franchise
for the same railway fifty years from
the passage of this Act.
Mr.. Brown also introduced an act
to authorize the Government to
guarantee interest of four percent
on 100000 of the railway company's
bonds.
Both bills took the regular course.
The crown lands bill was again
postponed
The bill to prevent the clipping
of sleeps ears in marking was, after
some discussion, referred to the
Judiciary Committee. In the dis
cussion other species of mutilating

"Teu it to the Marines"

The U. S. S. Boston has the best
marine corps in the navy. By bost
is meant the best drilled, the finest
looking and the most intelligent.
The records of this small body oi
marine soldiery recently sent to the
Naval Department at Washington
demonstrate this. Lieutenant ORA
per is the officer in command. and
the efficiency of his men is due in q
measure to their long stay on shore
at Honolulu and the many land
drills they were called to take part
in.-S. Z. CnN.

With the resources provided
Hawaii by nature, (and by such
resources we mean the fine
quality of building stone), a
lighthouse could be construc-
ted on the point where the
Miowera struck so that such
accidents would be of the past
and sea captains would not
have the hours of anxiety that
make young men old. If it be
necessary to have a lighthouse
halfway between the entrance
to the channel and the dock let
the old one remain where it is,
but that fact should not prevent
the erection of a new one, the
expense of maintenance would
be light compared with advan-
tages to all seafaring men. If
the government had a million
dollar reserve fund it might
copy New York City in its ex-
penditures after the fashion of
the Bartholdi Statue and make
one of some prominent poll
tiCian and call il "BIank En-
tightening his Constituents"
instead Of Liberty Enlighten-
ing the World This would
be too extravagant for this little
government, and we would
suggest a plain stone light
house painted with Hendry's
Ready Mixed Paints, that are
guaranteed to withstand the
semitropical storms which we
sometimes experience in Ha-
wall Nei.

Great Seed Establishment.
Sl,IO0 for Early Tomatoes.

We are in receipt of q Seed Catalogue for
1893, published by F. b. Min, Scotsman,
Rose Hill, New York. Mr.. Mills has q very
novel idea in getting up his Catalogue. 1t is
very plain, and his idea is to give his custO-
mers o very large amount for their money.
With every order amounting to 81 Or more
worth in packets free, their own choice, thus
you see everyone gets $3.50 for their 81.
Among the many premiums offered for
Cabbage, Onions, Potatoes, and Pansies, we
might mention the Early Tomatoes. $500 is
offered to any person growing q ripe one in
rs days or less from day seed is sown, also
$500 to person growing a ripe Tomato in least
number of days from day seed is. sown, $l25
for next and SIS for next.
He offers one of the finest lines of Vege-
table and Flower Seeds that can be found,
and prices are very reasonable.
He offers 81. 500 to club raisers for largest
club order and largest number of customers
secured by any one person.
Last year he paid Mrs. Z. B. Young, Rock
City, ILL.,, $500 for largest order. His Cata-
logne is very interesting, and no one who
plants Seeds can afford to be without it. 1t
gives a birdseye view of his establishment to-
gether with interior views of his Seed Houses,
showing how the work is carried on, and
photographs of persons who have won prizes,
His seeds are becoming known everywhere
for their excellent quality, and Mr.. Mills
guarantees to please all his customers. Al
ter looking this catalogue all through we
would advise our readers to write for one at
once, for it is free to anyone applying, and
try some of his Seeds this spring.
