OFFICE OF rHE ATTORNEY SgN&RAL, }
HONOLULU, April =, lS94.l
There appearing to be some misunder-
standing as to the effect of the oath requir-
ed of voters for delegates to the Constitu-
tional Convention, it has been deemed
advisable that an authoritative statement
on the subject be made.
The following is correc; statement Of
the intention of the law:
The word oppose" in the form of the
oath relates TO the duties OF those taking
it, as voters and as delegates; the form
er binding themselves in voting fo- dele
gates to vote only for such persons as are
opposed TO re-establishment of the
monarchy; and the latter as members of
the Convention binding themselves 10
work in the Convention against the intro
duction OF any provision in the new con-
s'ltution tending to a establishment
of the Monarchy.
TIE word resist was in the first
draft Of The oath and was stricken cut as
possibly misleading.

body in the matter. Political SEN
timents change slowly, especially
after a terrible civil war. But
the time will come when the
Northern States will go even fur
ther than the Southern States in
Merchandising the unlettered

In the meantime the example of
Hawaii stands before the North as
a "study" in the development of
institutions.
The protection of the weaker
races, in these modern days, will
be secured, not by giving them
political control, when they are in
the majority, but governing them
with that wisdom and sense of
justice, which is the outgrowth of
better civilization and a better
humanity.

DENIES A STATEMENT.
Leigh Irvine Says He Did Go to the
Edge of the Crater.

A rumor was afoat yesterday,
said to have been set in circulation
by brother of Peter Lee, manager
of the Volcano House. to the effect
that l.. III. Irvine, who visited the
volcano for the purpose of writing
a description thereof for the Exam
liner and New York Herald, was so
much alarmed at the turbulent
aspect of the fiery lake that he
could not be induced to leave the
hotel veranda. In reference to the
matter Mr.. Irvine said last night:
81 was at the edge of the lake in
company with Mr.. Rudolph Ban
ming of Honolulu. The Surgeon
and Chaplain of the Champion
were in our party, also, and these
gentlemen will corroborate my
statements. 1t was Captain Pal
mer of the Boston Transcript who
refused to 60 near the crater, so
the sporting gentlemen who have
been betting that [ was not away
from the hotel will lose their
money. If Mr.. Peter Lees brother
says / did not leave the hotel, Mr..
Peter Lees brother does not tell the
truth"

SAND OR ROCK.

Admiral Irwin, accompanied by
several officers and Mr.. ]. NJ.
McCandless, the well-borer, will
visit Pearl Harbor on Monday
next. The object of this second
visit is to ascertain whether or not
the distractions in the entrance to
the lagoon consist of sand and
loose coral debris, as stated in the
last issue of the Planters Monthly,
or hard coral rock ,as some contend.
Mr.. McCandless will take with him
his well-boring apparatus, and bore
to depth of thirty or forty feet in
various parts of the entrance, and
will be able to ascertain beyond a
doubt what the bar actually con-
sists of. Should it prove to be sim
liar to that of Honolulu, which the
dredger easily removed in three
months work, it will at once settle
the question as to its feasibility
and its cost. 1t cost about 5000, 600
to deepen our channel to thirty
feet. But the opponents of Pearl
Harbor contend it will cost mil
lion to open its entrance to depth
sufficient to admit large war ships.
IL the present examination is thor
ought ought to settle the question.

The Planters Monthly.

This periodical for the current

special interest to those engaged in
cane growing. One on cane stripping,
another on the best time for plant

BILE. An editorial on the Reciproc-
ity Treaty closes with the following
paragraph:
Ii is now generally believed that the
bar ut the entrance of Pearl Harbor
consists of hardened sand mixed with
loose coral, similar to what existed at
the entrance of Honolulu haroor Less
than two years before the entrance to
our harbor was deepened to thirty
feet, and with comparatively little
labor or cost, a surveyor reported that
hard coral rock was found in various
parts of the bar, which would GER
tainly require blasting in deepening
the channel. Nothing of the kind,
however, was found, and the whole
work of deepening the channel was
done at a cost of less than $780, 900
including the dredger. 1t is not at all
unlikely that a similar condition will
be found to exist at the entrance of
Pearl Harbor, and that the work of
deepening that bar can be as readily
accomplished. Actual trial alone can
determine whether this be the case or
not
