What the limit of speed for ocean
steamers may be, while steam re-
mains the motive power, is as pro-
blematic as the limit Of race horse
speed. Last month the new steamer
Campania broke her own eastbound

Sandy Hook, U. S., to Brow Head,
G.. B., in sd. l6h. 3Om., against sd,
17h. 52m. by which on her first east

Hawaiians As "Suckers."

EDITOR Bulletin
The Hawaiians are said to be a
simple and easy-going race. 1t is
doubtless on account of this reputa-
ton that certain white men have
been in the habit of treating them
as lot of suckers" to use vulgar
but expressive phrase. The latest
example Of this is Snowman Thurs
toms attempt to get the Hawaiian
National Band to go and play for
his cyclorama. They are offered
steerage passages to San Francisco,
and on arrival there will get shunted
across the continent as far as
Chicago, doubtless in second-class
cars, and while there will have the
delightful task of playing in front
of Thurston q Co.'s show after the
manner Of a travelling circus band.
No pay, mark you, is to be received
for this booming of Thurston T. Co.'s
show. After the Worlds Fair is
over they will be carted back to San
Francisco and will be allowed to find
their way back thence to Honolulu
at their own expense. Mr.. libornio,
who has been at a great deal of time
and trouble in connection with the
getting up of the Hawaiian National
Band, is to be coolly dropped and
Mr.. Berger put in his stead. Mr..
Berger, it must be remembered, is
the man who Topped over to the
p. G. side on account of his salary
and who for the past few months
has been busy (helped by his son in
San Francisco importing mixed
crowd of foreigners for his band that
are equalled only as regards the di-
versity of nationality by the con-
glomeration called the Z. G.. army.
Thurston, one Of the rankest an
nexationists and one who has tram
pied on the rights of Hawaiians
hears Of the proposed Mid-winter
Fair in San Francisco. Instead oi
attending to the duties at Washing,
ton for which he receives hand
some salary, he sees chance tC
make pile" He therefore rushes
off to San Francisco and secures the
sole right to run the Pacific Ocean
Department and then with his usual
gall asks people here in Hawaii tC
shake hands" and send up a nice
little collect ION of curios, etc, repre-
senting Hawaii nei to his Show, SC
that he may put the shekels in his
fob. If Thurston wants band let
him import few of his own cronies
of the Castle, Smith, Serene Bishop
type, and let them beat the drum
and blow the trumpet in front of his
dime museum. HAWAII NEI.

ARE SEWERS DESIRABLE.

At intervals we hear of the need
of system of sewerage for this city.
Probably two-thirds of our citizens
who have the good of the city at
heart would declare for such sys-
tenn if the question were put to vote;
but it is hardly likely that one per-
son in hundred has given the mat
ter such consideration as to war
rant an expression of opinion. We
have heard it stated that differences
of opinion existed among persons
fitted to decide such questions, as to
the value of systems of sewerage for
cities in the tropics. Taking up the
Forum for August few days since
we read an article on Municipal
Sanitation in Washington and Balti-
more," which is we'll worth reading.
Both cities have comparatively
large proportion Of colored popula-
ton, and in both, as here, the deaf h
rate Of colored people is largely in
excess of that OF the white popula,
ton. The climatic conditions in the
cities named are nearly the same for
each, but Washington is a severed
city and Baltimore is not.
Now for the figures, which we con
fess were surprise to US. For a
period of six years ending with June
l, 1890, the average annual death
rate in the District of Columbia was
22.4l a thousand of mean popula.
ton, while that of Baltimore was
22.39 for the same period; but this
excess Of mortality was entirely due
to the higher deathrates of the CO,
ored population, which were 1926
for the District and 1880 for Balti.
more, while those OF the white were
1855 for the District, and 20.4l for
Baltimore. 1t will be seen that the
excess of deaths OF colored popula,
tion in the cities named bears about
the same proportion that has been
noticeable in the statistics publish,

Lately a local paper noted the
significance of Washington des-
patch to the San Francisco Ex-
aminer, rather favoring the prospect
of Hawaiian annexation, as coming
from Mr.. T. t. Williams who had
been known in Honolulu as an anti
annexationist, while here investigat-
ing the annexation sentiment last
year. 1t happens that Mr.. Williams
has not been the correspondent OF
the Examiner at Washington fol
some time, having been month age
reported to be enjoying himself at

VIM. j. Abbott, managing editor
of the Chicago Times, while on a
visit to Washington, is reported to
have said "the Worlds Fair is max
ing Chicago poor" but the city
would "rise superior to this infliction
as it did to the fire." Probably the
Chicago exhibition has reached the
climax of cost and display for such
enterprises, so that the interest of
the world will not be obtainable for
any attempt to rival it in long
period to come.

Kawaiahao Seminary and the Queen

EDITOR BULLETIN
The letters from w. G. Smith of
the Star and Miss Pope, published
in your yesterdays issue, only serve
to show that the same crowd who
during the past z or 8 months have
been calling Queen Liliuokalani, in
print and behind her back, vile
sensual degraded heather, are still
only too ready to do the ''hoomali-
mali" act toward her when it serves
their purpose to do so. Just think
of it, here on one side are the author
tiles of the school trying to induce
the Queen to send back to Kawaia-
hao those children who have hither-
to been supported by her at that in
stitution, while on the other hand.
on the last page of the Friend for
September, the bigoted editor of
that paper states that Kawaiahao
school will now prosper because the
vile Queen has ceased to have any
influence or association with the
Seminary. HONOR.

ket of an article superior to
anything in the same line ever
sold here means something to
the busy business man. When
we went into the ready mixed
paint line we didlIso with the
idea of giving the public a bet
ter article than it has been
used to seeing. What is the
resulte Hendry's Ready
Mixed Paints are leading all
others; people who have been
averse to using prepared
paints are now ready and will
ling to save fifty percent Of the
cost Of painting their houses
by using this paint. Then you
ask "How can they save so
much?' Well tell you! Not
the least important item in the
profession Of the painter is his
knowledge of mixing colors,
and there's a good many Of
them in Honolulu who can put
the paint on as even as the
boards but who do not know
the first principle of mixing.
Very we'll then. A ten year
old boy can paint if the colors
are right. You can save the
wages Of a high priced man
and employ one who never
tried to learn the knack of
mixing and you save twenty
five percent in wages. The
"Hendry Ready Mixed" will
cover twenty-five percent more
space than ordinary paints or
the average ready mixed arti-
cle-there's your other twenty
, five percent. If you do your
: own work you will save twenty
