Orr New yudSe.

Mr.. EDIToR-A new District Judge
was appointed for the Island of
Molokai on June 2, 1894.
On Tuesday, June 10 at noon,
when the passengers by the ono
kolii" landed at Pukoo, the new
Judge, w. A. Kukamana, proceed
ed to search the passengers bag
gage, claiming that as he held the
office of Judge he had full power to
do so.
Mr.. Editor, the appointing of such
men as the above only brings the
appointing power into odium, and
ridicule, and alienates the true
friends of the government.

There must be deep-rOoted fear Of coming
social change in Austria, or the Pesther-
loud, perhaps the ablest newspaper IN the
Empire, would not use the strange arguments
with which it defends the present enormous
ornaments. They are, it says, according 10
the lines correspondent, absolutely necessa-
ry, but not for international reasons. There
is hardly any risk Of war, but it is tile armies
which keep down the otherwise certain social
oonvulsions. There is. it continues, a blind
hatred Of civilization in the souls # millions,
and but for the soldiers they would seize the
weapons Of destruction, and dominate tie
world with dynamite. Is that not rather too
sambre a picture of European society, even at
this moment? The Nihilists are but a minute
section of society in Russia; in France, M.
Raynal has cast his net wide anti only caught

Quiet multitude who never shout at meet

usefulness of the scldiery IN checking rioting,
but society rests upon q stronger foundation

(From the Spectator, Jan. g.

The French Government signalised the
first day Of the year by q blow at the
Anarchists, struck with its usual snergy when
resolved, and it's usual desire fol histrionic
effect. NJ. Raynal, the bold Hebrew who is
now Minister Of the Interior, arranged plan
for the arrest Of all known Anarchists in
France at one and the same moment, and at
midnight, at a signal given from a telegraph
button in the Home Office. his orders were'
carried out. Two thousand Anarchists were
arrested, all in bed and sleeping, and carried
off to places Of detention, their papers were
all seized for official perrsal, and their
machines, where any existed, we're all
impounded. The Anarchists appear to have
been completely taken by surprise. but
it is probable that in the general alarm which
has prevailed among them, their most com
promising papers and chemicals have been
securely concealed. At present the dis
coveries do not appear to have been lmpor-
tant, but the French police do not talk much
on serious occasions, and the Anarchists have
received a terrible lesson as to their rover
l~essness against society. The same scientific
cally organised machinery would, If the
Chamber had pleased, have sent them all to
Cayenne, and the Chamber will please, if the
explosions are continued, or if vengeance be
taken for these arrests.

AND STILL THERE'S MORE TO FOLLOW.

A correspondent in this issue
continues the discussion of the la
Dor question, and finds that the
estimates of monthly wages in the
United States, published in the AD-
vyRTIsER a couple of days since,
are decidedly too high, because en-
ployment in the occupations indi-
Gated is far from regular. No
doubt there is something in this
contention, though to cut the fig
lures down one-half, as our CORES
lpondent suggests, would be to err
/ as grievously On the other side.
Employment on the sugar plan
Stations has hitherto been very
Isteady and regular. At the same
time, it is necessary to remember
that it would cease to be so with
free labor and large labor market
Ito draw upon. One chief element
III tic the contract
lsys has been the fact that it
Inecessitates the maintenance all
the time of a labor force sufficient
TO do the work of the plaata;ion at
the season when the demand for
labor is the greatest. If the planter
had a large labor market to draw
upon, he would hire an extra sup
ply of men for planting and grind
ing, and dismiss them again when
the temporary demand should be
over.
No doubt, however, it is true that
she actual rewards of agricultural
abor are very small in Ohio, small
sr, perhaps, than they might prove
\ 20 the same class of labor in Ha-
vail 1t is one thing, however, to
demonstrate the fact to ones own
'atisfaction, and another to make

A FoRLORN HOPE.

The Holomua has lost faith in
Mr.. Cleveland and now builds the
glittering fabric of its hopes upon
Captain Morse, of the Alameda,
who is good friend of the Hawai-
ians, and will bring them good
news.
Any news which Captain Morse
brings of the kind which the Holo-
mua seeks, will have TO be of the
captains own making. We do not
believe he is in the business of
taking" dispatches for the royal
lists.
But what fall is here! The
hopes which were built on the rock
of the President, are now planted
on this sea captains sand.

The True Democratic Doctrine

The True Democratic Doctrine
It warns the blood of every tru
Democrat to read over and again
the words with which Genera
Sickles rebuked the cowardly sur
render of Democratic policy anc
principle by the contemplate Ha
waiian resolutions passed the Other
day by a recreant Democratic ma
jority of the House.
The great glory of the Democratic
party in the past has been its
policy of annexation-a policy
through which the territory and
power of the United States have
been extended so magnifcently.
In speaking and voting against
those subservient resolutions, Gen.
Sickles followed all the most illus
trious historical leaders Of the
Democratic party. He was not
willing to sacrifice traditional De-
mocratic ideas in order 10 shield
from reproach the un-Democratic
policy of individual self-will, wrong
headedness and double-dealing.
Annexation is the Democratic
doctrine, annexation of the Hawai-
ian Islands, of Cuba, of Canada,
and of ali territory which will
strengthen the power of this re-
public. Opposition to it is heresy
to the Democracy, first conceived
and boldly proclaimed in the policy
of infamy.
Opposition to monarchy is the
American doctrine. The right of
revolution is the American princi-
pie. The use of the power of this
Government to thwart and betray,
harass, and insult Americans who
have exercised that right to escape
from subsection to barbarous and
bIoodthirsty Queen will ever revolt
and outrage every Democratic IN
stinct.
The blood of the American that
does not boil with indignation at
the thought OF the conspiracy to
restore Liliuokalani is too cold
20 be warmed by the fire of patri-
otto impulse. 1t is the blood
of the Mugwump, not the Demo
crat. That sort OF fluid does not
flow In the veins of any gallant
American soldier; and if there is
such soldier, Gen. Sickles is GER
tainly one.-N. y. Sun.

IN THE COUNCILS.

Yesterdays meeting of the COun-
ellis was long and interesting one.
d. B. Smith took his seat for the
first time among the Solons. The
Constitutional Convention bill
came up for its final reading and
passed after receiving number of
amendments. Mr.. Emmeluth
moved the number of delegates be
increased from eighteen to twenty
four, but this move in the interest
of truly popular government did
not meet with approval. Mr.. Allen
seconded Mr.. Emmeluth's motion.
The Dangerous Persons Act again
came up for consideration, but was
re-referred to committee.

RAIN RECORDS.

We publish this morning some
very interesting statistics on the
rainfall for the month of Febru-
airy. 1t has been unusually heavy.
Pohoiki, Puma, Hawaii, where Mr..
Rycroft leads semi-aquatic life,
carries off the palm with thirty
four inches for the month. This,
with the twenty-five inches which
fell in January raises the record of
this diluvian spot to fifty-six
inches for the first two months of
1894.
Ahuimanu, however, has re-
ceived a veritable baptism by inn
mersion. Three inches of rain in
fifty-five minutes must have
been as awful a visitation as
tidal wave.
