Mr.. MARsDEN'S REPORT.

The report of Mr.. Joseph Mars
den, the Commissioner of Agricul-
ture, to the Minister of the Interior
is, in many respects, the most i'm
portant document issued by the
Government during this year, be-
cause it contains subjects which
touch the life of the land. 1t was
one of the objectionable crimes of
the monarchy that it paid no atter-
ton to the development of small
agricultural industries, through
which natives with little or no cap
ital could make a decent living.
Nor did it establish agricultural
schools, for the education of the ma
tive boys, so that they could master
the rudiments of horticulture. The
monarchy erected palace, costing
over 100000, but it could not find
a way of establishing simple indus
trial schools, which would enable
the natives to fight their losing bat
tie against the industrious white
man. Besides, the white men ex-
clusively went into sugar cultiva-
ton, which involved capital, and
let everything else alone.
Now, Mr.. Marsden, with great
intelligence, and with an enthusi-
asm which has no limit, is doing
that which should have been done
many years before. He is testing
the value of many trees, grasses,
fruits and grains, and, also, the
capacity and value of soils. 1t is
strange, indeed, that the early
teachers of the natives did not see
the value of the physical environ
ments of man, in his moral devel-
opment. But in the early days it
was not considered, and the native
was left to his old ways.
Mr.. Marsden is a true mission
airy, and has a great and attractive
field of labor before him. Ifhe sue
ceeds in introducing one new in
dustry of general value, it will put
him well ahead in the list of Ha-
waiian benefactors.

FREE SPEECH.

The question is often asked, at
the ADVERTISER office, why do
you notice the Opposition press 1t
only makes them important" The
ADVERTISER, as a journal of events,
must keep a record of what men
are doing and thinking about, in
these changable times. People look
to the papers for the news of the
day. The loss of a yellow dog, or
the giving of a luau, or the running
away of horse, or the beating of
wife. or the serious views of the
Opposition press, may be very
trihing matters, but this makes up
the humble tale Of life. Many
little, almost Insignificant events,
are the small rills which gather
together, and make up the stream
of history. Besides, there is very
rich vein of humor in the Opposi-
ton press, and our readers should
enjoy it.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1894-09-25

The Holomua foreign editor
joyfully unites with the Ka Leo in
a frantic condemnation of the
editor of the ADVERTISER for being
happy and wicked, while travelling
with King Kalakaua in France. 1t
seems to regard a visit to the Cafe
Chantant as a much greater crime
than the upsetting of the mon
archy, just as the old darkey felt
that the stealing of his chickens
was a crime worse than murder.
1t hopes chat it has done un-
told harm to the Republic" and
then cordially and pathetically
invites the Government to enforce
the sedition laws against its editor.
Prisoner Ito the judge who has
just given him ten days for vag-
rancy): 'Say, judge, if 1 calls yer
bloody thief, will you put ten
days more on me? It's mighty
cold weather and 1 likes the luxoo-
ray and free vittles of the peniten-
tury."
Judge: "No, prisoner, govern
ments are not in the business of
providing free board for tramps.
Mr.. Clerk, take five days off that
sentence. Pm not going to soothe
the feelings of the criminal
classes"
The Government will find, we
presume, that there is less trouble
with the Holomua in full blast
than in locking its editor up,
where he may corrupt the morals
of the prisoners. Something is
due to them.

VETERANS MEET.

The old veterans of the Federal
Army brushed up their recollec-
tions of the great civil war, on Sat
urday evening, on Mr.. Wright's
grounds. To them, those days of
conflict, and suffering and death
are now only a phantom. But
they shared in the grandeur of the
birth of the greater nation, of which
Mrs. Howe sung, in tie battle
hymn of the Republic,
"Mine eyes have seen the glory of the
coming of the Lord"
In their peaceful bivouac, under
tropical stars, over a thousand
leagues from the old battlefelds,
they retold the stories, and related
again the incidents of army life.
Did any of them recall that "Bal-
lad of the Drum" by Thackeray9
otis written since fighting begun,
That sometimes we fight and We con-
quer,
Aud sometimes we fight and we
runp

THE papers of the United States
are respondent over the political
situation, arising out of the labor
strikes, the long quarrel in Con-
gress over the tariff bill the
Senate is charged with the crime
of bribery in the Sugar Trust mat
ter, and there is a general feeling
that something is wrong. The fol-
lowing extract from the CONNER
cial report of the New Zealand
Herald, of the 9TH inst, shows
that on the other side of the world,
things are apparently going on
badly.
The month has been disappointing
as regards general turnover, consider
ing the season is now spring, hitherto
yearly giving some help to the state
of business; but it is not hard to &C
count for the dulness and trade timid-
ity that prevails. Parliament is in
session, and there is a constant fear of
what will be the next legislation of an
unsettling character. Every interest
is being threatened, and traders, prop
erty-holder, and the thrifty classes
generally have lost all confidence in
the wisdom or even common sense of
the Parliamentary majority. Until
this state of fear of what the majority
will next do is at rest there will nat
urally be restricted expenditure, a
lookup of capital, and all the impedi-
ments to vitality in trade.
There is general tribulation all
over the world at present. Man
kind, as usual, prefers rich living,
and no thinking" to "plain living,
and high thinking" and then has
bad health. So the political and
social physicians and surgeons
have their hands full. We are,
ourselves, in the hospital, with the
rest of the world.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1894-09-25

All the Opposition papers, and
all are published by men who are not
pure natives, are rather tempestu-
GUS over the simple and innocent
statement of the ADvERTIsER-that
the only paper published in the ma
tive language, and edited by pure
native, is loyal to the Republic.
The Ka Leo, at once, calls the
pure native, who edits that
paper, a monkey, that has been
captured and taught to do tricks
and dance" Mr.. Bush really does
not mean to call the natives mon
keys, from whom one has been
captured and trained to do tricks.
But, then, he is not pure native
himself.

THERE is no trouble whatever in
obtaining native jurors, in Homo

serve under the Republic. They
may, or may not, be sincere about
it. On the whole, it indicates that

New ZEALAND and the Austral-
ian Colonies protest against the
annexation of Necker Island TO
the Hawaiian Republic. But, it is
said, the home government do not
take this view of the case. There
will, probably, be no trouble about
it, as there will be no objection
made to the landing of the cable on
that island, without prejudice to
British interests.

The citizens of New York city
have, after thirty years of disor-
ganized work, finally concluded to
pull together and reform their local
politics, by ignoring national is
sues and uniting for the best local
government. Only years of bitter
experience, have brought this
about, and it is not certain that
the respectable citizens care
enough about the matter, to take
hold and do hard work. The busy
politicians may yet outwork them.

KING TAwHIAo of the Maori race
in New Zealand, died in New Zea-
land on August Goth. He was of
the very noblest blood Of that race
and kept his nominal kingship
until the day of his death. He
made great efforts to maintain the
autonomy of the Maori race, and
claimed jurisdiction over all of
New Zealand. He was net a man
of ability, but owing to his rank
he was held in great veneration by
the natives.

If the native Hawaiians ever
read history or cared to find out
what white men do, when they are
not missionaries" but only COM
mercial adventures, they would
get some valuable information in
the history, of the Maori race,
which, instead of being Graded"
and nursed by the whites as the
native Hawaiians have been, were
simply shot down, or robbed, or
driven out by the British colonists.

result will be marvelously
beneficial to the sugar plant
ers. Last year in Hamakua
there was but six inches of
rain in six months; this year it
starts in a little better. The
ground has been dampened
and the prospects a few days
ago were favorable. If there
is one section of the country
that needs rain Hamakua is
the one. There are some fine
plantations in the district and
in the days when the condit-
ions were favorable and the
rainfall all that could be de-
sired they paid their owners
handsomely. Nowadays the
rain comes from the North
east, salutes the landsman
and then goes on to Hilo.
Forests are known to at
tract the rain clouds and
Hamakua was once blessed
with an abundance of trees.
A few years ago the people
began cutting down the limb
er and before they were stop
ped there was scarcely enough
left to supply lumber for a
cabin. The suffering through
this falls not alone upon the
plantation: the residents in
the villages must go with a
short supply for toilet pur-
poses and their clothing has
to be sent to Honolulu to be
laundried. We remember
that less than a year ago the
fortunate owner of a we'll was
dispensing the water at five
cents a gallon.
Honokaa is a nice little
place and the residents are
progressive enough to be
up with the times; they want
water but they have not yet
hit upon a plan for getting it.
We have canvassed the situa-
tion quite thoroughly and
know that the water from the
spring at the gulch near the
landing can be forced to the
village by simply using a SER
les of Aermotors. These would
not only pump as great a sup
ply as d steam engine but it
would do it at a very little
cost either for the plant in the
beginning or in maintaining it
afterward. The Aermotor con-
sumes no fuel, just a little free
air and the water flows like
water. The 16 foot Aermotor,
either pumping or geared is in
use in several public and pri-
vate institutions, as we'll as on
plantations and it has always
given satisfaction. The only
power used by the Water
Works Co., of Waimea, Kauai,
is a 16 foot Aermotor. The
promoters of the scheme
have no trouble in collecting
their water rates because they
give the consumers an abund-
ance of water. There are
plenty OF villages on the ISL
ands that could be supplied in
the same way and as long as
the well or stream lasted there
would be no danger of RUM
ing short. We don't get the
statements we make regard
ing the wonderful possibilities
Of the Aermotor from our i'm
agination; we have demonstra-
led in many different places
hat the galvanized Steel
Aermotor will do all that is
advertised for it and more
han can be done by any
mill of larger diamet-
Or. The Steel Aermotor has
other advantages over wood
an mills; being lighter it will

'tructed of galvanized steel it
will not rot away and cause

STRUCK BY electric CAR
Narrow Escape Of Three Persons at
Wyoming Ave. and Spruce St.
DIR. c. H. FISHER INJURED
Miss Mabel Knowles, the Comic Opera
Artist, Badly Shaken Up and Bruised.
Harry Storms Was Most Fortunate.
Horse Doltcd i'll Front OF Car.

The persons in the vicinity of Wyom
ing avenue and Spruce street We're hor-
ror-stricken at S.15 o'clock last night by
seeing an electric car and carriage con-
tanning three persons come together
with great force.
There was the sound of crash, the
three persons went into the air and then
fell to the asphalt pavement and at the
same instant the car came to a stand
still.
The occupants of the carriage were
DR.. c. II. Fisher, his son-in-law, Harry
Storms, and Miss Mabel Knowles, of
Philadelphia, the we'll known comic
opera artist, who has been the guest of
Mr.. and Mrs. Storm for the past two
weeks.
The three were riding along Spruce
street, the doctor handling the reins,
and as the carriage was turned into
Wyoming avenue, car 105 on the Green
Ridge Peoples line in charge Of Motor
man Taylor and Conductor Ossenbaum
came along.
Dashed in Front of Car.
The horse made an effort to turn, the
doctor hit it with the whip and instant
ly 1t plunged in front Of the rapidly ap-
preaching electric car. There was Il
moment of horror for the occupants Of
the carriage and then came the colli-
sion.
A moment later Miss Knowles was
picked up from under the wheels of the
carriage. She was unnerved and badly
bruised, but had no visible wounds.
Mr.. Storms escaped without injury, but
DR.. Fisher who landed on the back Of
his head sustained an ugly scalp wound.
He was taken into Phelps drug store,
where the injury was dressed and later
he was taken to his home on the West
Side.
Miss Knowles said she had been in
several railroad wrecks, in one Of which
companion Of hers was killed. but she
never had such an unnerving experience
before as that she underwent last night.
The force of the collision was suf-
ficient to throw the occupants of the
carriage away from the electric car
track, otherwise some Of the party
would have been killed or badly in
jured.
Collision on Lackawanna Avenue.

Langan, of Dunmore, and his driver
We're passing along lower Lackawanna
avenue, seated in the delivery wagon
behind team of horses. Near the
bridge Langan's outfit and the horses
and wagon driven by James Harmon,
of Daleville, collided with considerable
force and the horses, becoming alarmed,
ran away at great speed.
At the Weston mill Langans horses
ran into team of horses owned by a
man named Snyder, from Peckville.
Langan was thrown from the wagon
and one of his wrists sprained. One Of
his feet was also injured. The horses
and wagons were badly damaged by
the collisions; that of Mr.. Hannah suf-
fering the most severely.

Soon after o'clock yesterday after
noon those in the neighborhood of Lack
awanna and Wyoming avenues Were
startled by loud report, which was
caused by an explosion of the little
steam engine on the peanut stand
alongside Banister's store.
A large crowd quickly gathered and
it was found that the engine was re-
duced to fragments and rendered
worthless. The cause of the explosion
was assigned to a leakage of gas,
which heated the boiler. One lady was
rendered unconscious, but was not Sc
riously hurt, and soon recovered her.

tunately, although the consequences
might have been serious, the flying
fragments missed the people who We're
passing by, the peanuts, which We're
scattered in every direction, being the
most formidable things which struck
those near by. The Juvenile element
were in great glee and enjoyed free
lunch of peanuts.
The cost of the engine is $3.50, which
the owner claims is covered by insur-
ance.
