news of the action Of the British Gov
m In passing n bill authorizing
seizure of british vessels In Behring Sea.
The dealers are practically unanimous

Work on the Aston stable. on the cor

POLITICS IN HILO.

The ADVERTISER published on
Thursday an account of the organ
ization of a political club in Hilo
This morning we give an account
of the organization of another.
From the indications ii would
seem that the first club was formed
under the platform of the Union
party, while that which was Gre
ated later,-on Monday, March
18th, adopted the amended plat
form Of the American Union party.
Upon this showing it would seem
that the second club was the one
TO he recognized by the central
committee. There is no Union
party. 1t has been amended out
of existence. The political club
organized under it must either
play a lone hand, or urge its being
in that of its younger sister.
We advise our friends in Hilo to
compound their differences and
fall into the one solid annexation
line. This is no time to be quar-
reling. The royalists are the enc
my, and as long as there are any
of them left, it behoves annexa-
tionists to suppress their family
feuds. The platform of the Union
party was good, and so is that of
the American Union party. The
second has won the day, its prin-
ciples should unite all true friends
of Hawaii.

THOSE SUNDAY CONCERTS.

A correspondent this morning
clothes in a facetious form some
serious arguments in favor of Sun
day concerts. The opinion of the
ADVERTISER on this question is
already matter of record. We
believe that the influence of good
music is directly elevating that in
as far as secular music has any
relation to religion at all, it makes
for it rather than against it. The
Sunday afternoon concerts would
provide a wholesome and agreeable
recreation, which would be enjoy
ed largely by the laboring classes.
and by persons whose business or
other engagements prevent their
attending the week day concerts.
There does not seem to be any
reason to suppose that the course
proposed would lead to disorder or
noise, while it would undoubtedly
keep some persons away from worse
resorts, while Frightening the lives
of many.
The theory that Sunday should
be wholly devoted to religious en-
Payments is practically aban-
doned. Christians nowadays do
not condemn healthful and refining
pleasures, the reading of history,
travels or fiction, the enjoyment of
outdoor air and exercise. The
harsh and rigid Sabbath of our
fathers has passed away, and its
unnatural restraints have made
room for the activities of a rational
freedom.
AS to the effects of Sunday con-
certs in this city, there is one sure
way of ascertaining them. That
is to make the experiment. Both
parties should be willing to put the
matter to a practical test. If the
succeeds the concerts
can be continued if it fails they
san be dropped.
