FIRE DEPARTMENT MATTERS.

The resignation of Mr.. Hogan, cleo
trician OF the fire department, which
took place yesterday morning, was mere
ly anticipatory of action pending in the
board Of commissioners while the resig-
nation was being written out. In assur-
ing Mr.. Hogan that he bore him no
malice Mr.. Commissioner Kuhrts spoke
the truth beyond question. 1t was not
the individual but the eyatem upon
which the sturdy old commissioner, who
is very practical fireman himself, was
waging war. The evil under which the
system labored was the old story of one
man trying to serve two masters. OF
Mr.. Hogan's competency there can be
question. The fault lies in his being the
employee of corporation doing bust
ness in the city as we'll as an employee
of the city itself, out Of which condition
of affairs the city became the only SUI
ferer.
The present system of turning the
city'a fire alarm telegraph wires over to
the District Telegraph company came in
vogue about two years ago, and has been
found to work badly. While it effected
a reduction in salaries, it worked in such
a way as to increase the number and
cost of repairs to such an extent as more
than exceeded the amount saved in sal
aries. Meanwhile the alarm service has
suffered at odd times, and particularly
within the past few weeks. The com
munications of the big alarm bell were
isolated Cor insulated if you prefer the
word for nearly week; and on Wednes
day of this week telephone alarm wal
turned In from burning house owned
by G. Underwood and occupied by Mr.
Bernard, because the nearest alarm DO,

s2S, 900, 600, and this would go largely to
German and English planters. The dis
pensing OF such large largess in Ha-
waii would excite such ageneral indigna-
ton that itwould doubtless lead to the
entire repeal of the sugar bounty, and
the crushing out OF our infant beet sugar
industry. The actual benefit to the
United States, on the other hand, would
be next to nothing. Our true policy is
to fortify and hold on to Pearl harbor,
and let Hawaii take care of itself. There
is no occasion for the development of q
red hot lingo policy on the part of the
