wEICE RoADg

Of thst district are very anxious TO
hays the Government put its pris-
ouerS TO work On the roSd running
sloug the coast 10 Hsmskua, IN
stead Of building the long projected
road to Puma. No doub. there is
s great deal to &c urged in favor of
this proposition, but there is at
lsaS. little more 10 be said en- the
other side than our correspondent
seems inclined 10 s6mit. The
Puma road viii certainly run
through $ great deal of barren
land, butt viii also reach q great
deal Of fertile land, and It viii
open up s district which is now al
most inaccessible, the upper road

not even ths,, SO that none but an
expert could ever 6ud his way along
II, while the lower rO&d, though it
eau Be tro,ted over by $ mule, does
not touch the good lands Of the
district. The importance of the
Puns road is certainly more pros
pective than present, though it
viii be an indispensable part of
sny system for opening up the

Il Is to be hoped that the Hilo-

MUST GIVE UP BETTING.

In spite Of Lord Rosehery's de-
FAINT spirit, he will have to give up
betting and horse,raoing If he is 10
be the head Of the Liberal Party
and Prime Minister of England.
This is no doubt cruel sacrifice
10 demand Of any man, but ac-
cording to the latest adviees Lord
Rossbery hiss public spirit and
possibly ambition enough to make
it. He viii have to find something
else to De proud Of besides owner
ship of the best horse in England.
This is, of course, = concession 20
the spirit Of the great body of Nom
conformists, who constitute the
chief strength of the Liberal Party.
These people do not like horse
racing. They do not believe in
betting. Most of them regard those
practices as sinful, aud it is probs-
bly, no exsggeration TO say that
hundreds ofthousands of the Lib
eral voters Of England have never
so much as seen a horse-race, even
from sfar off.
1t is customary to sheer at these
Non-conformist notions as the in
grained prejudices of a lot of mar
row-mjnded bigots. Perhaps they
may be such, but nevertheless the
men who own 10 them are the
backbone, not only of the Liberal
Party, but Of the British Empire,
and have contributed to its
greatness in war aud in peace, at
home and abroad. Anglo Saxon
and m)ral earuestness
are what make the Augl1-Ssxon
character great. Thnse who have
these virtues should be forgiven
for the faults which go with them,
and pardoued, even if they cannot
distinguish gambling in horsehesh
on grand scale from mere petty !
and vulgar manifestations Of vice.

ENNELUTH DISSENTING.

The Councils yesterday passed a
resolution thanking Colonel Soper
for his public services, and provid-
ing that he be presented with q
sword as q mark of appreciation.
The compliment is well deserved,
and We are glad that the Councils
are OF one mind on the subject, no
one but Emmeluth dissenting. That
Mr.. Emmeluth should dissent, how
ever, is as much in the course of
nature as the changes of the moon,
the recurrence of the tides, or the
procession Of the seasons.
The same member propounded
series of questions to the Executive
which plainly show him to be pos
sessed with the idea that the Gov
eminent is busily engaged in vio-
latiDg the laws, and that the Jap
anese immigrants by the Aikoku
Maru were landed in some surrep-
titious and fraudulent manner.
The facts were stated in the ADvER-
TIsER the other day, and they do
not disclose anything which savors
of illegality. Mr.. EmmeIuth's
questions will do no harm, how
ever, aud they give newspaper men
something to write about.

CORRESPONDENCE.

Mn. EprreR We have had a
glorious Fourth Of July celebration,
fine music, patriotic songs. Deolar-
alton Of Independence aud q tin'
iShed Grafton, all Of which has been
reported to the papers. The crown
Ing event OF the celebration was
the able aud common sense speech
/ OF l., y. ThnrSton, announcing the
/ promulgation Of the Constitution
of the Republic of Hawaii. Mr.,
Thur,on's appearance among us
WAS greeted by prolonged applause
from the very large audience c0ui-
posed of various natlonalities and
all shades Of Hawaiian politics.
The effect of his speech was 10
strengthen the friends Of the new
Republic and TO convince the roy
ahsts that the monarchy is dead
and buried, and that the new Gov
eminent, launched into existence
by the proclamation, is clean and
honest Government, fully guaran-
teeing and protecting the civil
rights of every citizen and person
within its jurisdiction. His speech
has done us all good and the good
effect will last,
1t is the first time since the de-
thronement of the Queen that Hilo
has had the pleasure of hearing
speech from one of the great
hesd centers of the movement for
good Government, and we are glad
that happy chance brought to US
Mr.. Thurston on the Republics |
natal day.
The country districts, with !
hearty goodwill, conceded all mer.
tied praise TO Honolulu for the
grand courage, perseverance and |
patience which its citizens have
displayed under the most trying
circumstances, snd we trust Mr..
Thurston will not be censured for
making his Fourth Of July speech
in Hilo, rather than in Honolulu
We feel that we have all of the
soil of earth that We require. But
We have lacked the assurance to
make our wants aud views known
at the seat of Government. Under
the Republic it is to be hoped that
the grest and rich districts of Ha-
waii viii wake up to their own in
terests, and, if the few gentlemen
who have heretofore run Hawaii
permit, get into closer touch with
the general Government.

Nosquito- Catching Plant

A japanese mosquito catching

Gently, says the New York Tribune.
The bare mention OF such q thing
suggests infinite possibilities. The
zeal name of it is Vincetoxicum
acuminatum, but its name is a
matter Of 10 consequence. What
we should like 10 know is why it
has up to the present time been
blushIng unseeu. In the specimen
exhibited every blossom held with
in its embrace a mesquite, which
appeared to be fast beyond a posi-
bilIty Of escape. In little time
We may expect to see summer

they are fully equipped with large
fields devoted to the cultivation of
this plant. Why Japan has con-
cealed the treasure so long is a
