HONOLULU. JAN. IL. 1894

THE continued retention, by
the Provisional Government, OF
men in their employ who perform
the duties of spies, is an act
which is beth unnecessary and
expensive. Further than that.
many Of the men thus clothed
with authority. or supposed to
be. are not of good character,
ard their training and instincts
make them an undesirable eie
ment for the peacefully disposed
citizens of Honolulu to come in
contact with, either IN the light
or dark. There is not the slight
est necessity for such a force
being now retained, as the regu-
lar police force are amply able to
uphold the dignity of the law,
especially when there are. In
every residence block in the city,
good men enrolled aside from their
politics, who will not hesitate to
uphold law and order. There are
many non-supporters if the
claims of the P. G.. thus enrolled
and who are honest, determined
citizens. The HoLoMUA would,
in the present condition of things
most strongly oppose, and OF
necessary denounce, any attempt
at violence. of any kind, by the
many people who consider still,
that Stevens act was an unwar-
ranted outrage. No! gentlemen
OF the Government, spies are not
necessary. therefore "call of
your dogs" and let the good
citizens of Honolulu, whose
name is legion, be permitted to
control the fair fame Of the city
and as one which is the abode
of an order loving and peace
ably disposed community which
needs no spies to dog their steps
or anticipate their sentiments or
conversations.

The DIRECTORS of the Star
Company have saved the situation
by writing a letter to the would
be legislator Mr.. w. G. Smith
in which he is told, that If he
follows the call of his ambition
and accepts Tim Murray's no.
mination for a seat in the Ad-
visory he will have to step down
and out from the editorial chair
in the Star Office. The whole
affairs a bluff from the word go. >
Mr.. Emmeluth who is a partner
in the newspaper business of Mr..
Smith evidently found that In
spite of the Club and the League
and the Guard and the Verein
Mr.. Smith had no show of being
elected to the Councils and con
sequently an issue between the
government and the political
organizations was avoided by
Mr. Emmeluth Great Scott!)
writing to Mr.. Smith that
he could not be spared
from the Star. 1t is really
too bad for Smith. In his
seeking for notoriety he has been
checked by his bosom friends
and he has to remain in obscure
ty simply because the family
compact will not open the doors
IFS sacred circles to an outside
fllibuster, or tolerate any outside
interference in their monopoly of
land-stealing, grabbing and
ruling. We sincerely regret that
Senator Cd Emmeluth weakened.
because we had hoped to see him
make strong fight for bis i'm

usually by the missionary party.

The Appraiser.

Mr.. C. j. Fishel has been
flying around with a petition
among the merchants of Homo
lulu, asking for their endorse
ment to his application for the
new position as appraiser at the
Custom House, which our econo-
mical government proposes to
establish. Mr.. Fishel we under
stand to be backed by the annexa-
ton club, and all the other
political combinations and he Is
as far as we are concerned,
perfectly welcome to get the
Office and the salary $4,000 a
year,. Among other applicants
we hear mention made of Messrs
E. Damon, Gum and Boardman.
No doubt all the gentlemen APP
plying for the ''fat" billet
are competent to fill the
position, but we should
say so in more hearty manner
if somebody would define the
duties of an appraiser in a more
specific manner. In 1886, under
the Gibson administration the
position of appraiser was estab-
lished, and we femember the
howl which the dry-goods firms
and importers in town raised
against the office generally, and
the incumbent especially; at that
time, the salary was placed at
81 200 a year, and the Office was
discontinued as soon as the
reform party went into power.
The claim was that there was
absolutely no necessity for such
an Office, and that it was
sinful extravaganza to use
the taxpayers money for the
purpose of establishing such a
sinecure. What may we ask has
happened since then which
makes the Office of appraiser a
necessity which is to fill long
felt wantl Or is it possible that
the minister of finance believes
that the treasury to-day can af-
ford what he among others seven
years ago termed a wasteful ex-
travagance? We believe that an
appraiser is decidedly unneces-
sary. All goods imported here
are certified to by a Hawaiian
Consul ard we do not suppose
that the P. G.. for one moment
will insinuate that the firms
abroad which deal with our To-
CPL land highly respected P. G..
supporters or the Hawaiian
Consuls will lend them
selves to assist in or further
fraudulent schemes. The Con-
sul's certificate to an invoice
must be sufficient. What, with
all due respect to the gentlemen
individually-sio Messrs. Fishel,
Gum, Damon, or Boardman
know about the prices at which
our local importers buy their
merchandise in Europes Is il
the intention if an importer re-
ceiyes an invoice of goods from
England at remarkably low
figure to authorize the appraiser
to raise the value of invoiced goods
to the same figure as that which
some other and more unfortunate
firm has to payl Ii so an In

From Lahaina.

! The Annexation Club has sent
| to the different districts a kind
! of cast iron oath which the
faithful have to subscribe if they
desire the goodwill of the Smiths.
{ Jones, and Browns. The oath
provides that the subscriber will
guarantee undying fealty to the
| p. G.. that he will never (hardly
ever divulge any of the orders or
commands given to him in the
name of the Club; that he will
faithfully obey all instruc-
tions of the men design
ated as officers of said
Club, and that he will resist to
his last by force any attempt OF
the q. S. to restore the Queen.
A document containing some
thing to the above effect was for
warded to Lahaina from the An
nexation Club by the hands of
the great annexationist (pro. tenn. }
Mr.. John w. Kalua. Somehow
or other the good citizens of
Lahaina didn't flock together
and spill their ink on an attempt
to be the first on the list. The
"haoles'' of course came to the
front and the numerous Homer
family placed their valuable
signatures to the oath and were
followed by the few Struggling
foreigners who yet inhabit the
ruins of Lahaina. Among the
natives the Sunday-school based
Judge Mr.. Kahaulelio and
his two sons came to the fore.
None of them could shoot a sick
cat if they tried, and they were
ably seconded by the moral and
virtuous. discarded preacher, Mr..
Pail and his virtuous family.
The jailor and the ex-deputy
sheriff who presumably still hope
to get back to the hesh-pots of
Egypt filled the number Of
Hawaiian supporters of the P. G..
Despairing over such poor re-
suit the manager of the p. G..
show called on the different
Cinnamon and most of the con-
victed opium thieves attached
their signatures probably in
Chinese figures. With that re-
en- fore m Q Mt Lahaina was
considered safe and twenty
rifles were successfully landed
at kaanapali, and handed over
to Fred Horner who now we
suppose is ready to distribute
them to Awae, and All Baldwin,
and the rest of the All P. G's.
Talking about opium thieves,
remind us of a case which was
tried short while ago in LaIla-
ina. A raid was made on the
house of Awae who for years en-
joyed the reputation OF running
an opium den and lot of opium
and some smokers were captured.
The P. G. deputy-sheriff of
course didn't know enough to
prosecute the case, and Mr..
Henry Long was imported from
Wailuku to represent the p. G..
Our honest @ friend Mr.. J. w.

defense and-it doesn't surprise
