Hawaii Welcome!
by Henry O'Meara. ]

Lone realm of Isles, like Jewels far and fair,
Where sapphire hues of Ocean mounting
high
Tranquil and clear in opalescent air,
Are merged in turquoise of tropic eky--
Pearl of Pacific shine beneath the fold
OF flag to whose bright field thy emblems
turn
Hawaii to our radiant ensign hold,
We welcome thy new star with ours enrolled
Share in our beam, in flame of kinship burn
Thy clustering lights and kindllng hopes we
From emerald soil to bound of beryl sea,
From Mauna Kea's head of crystal mail
To every green lagoon and vernal vale
Our vivid gem of liberty to be.
They CLEAN alike where OnOmea's sand
Lies golden DER the waters strifes and
Gains,
Or Honolulu, on her primal strand,
Nestles in floral gladness of the land
Beside her plumed bananas and her palms
Shrine OF the Sun-his rays thy lustre lend
Where pomegranates and hibiscus throng
While orange and ohia blossoms blend
Harmonious joys of birds and blooms trans
cend
To chant thee, home of summer, cheer and
song!
But moral blight behold! for days most dire
Mans civil wrong and hapless rule reveal
With evils symboled in volcanic ire
Fierce warning in Kilauea's lake of fire,
Thy psalms of woe to nations soul appeal
Sounds plaintive on thine amethystine seas,
In prayerful call or wrathful protest raves,
Re-echOing through thy thousand lava caves
A dirge as sadly wild as Kona's breeze
The birthright of thy destiny restore
And guard for thee claim of loftier state
Cleaving the girdle of thy crescent gate
To carve our Union on thy coral shore

THE EXCUSE OF MILLS.

The letter from Mr. Mills, say
ing that his failure to ackuowl, dye
the receipt of the January 18th in
vitation was due to the fact that
said invitation had been mislaid
appears to be about as brazen a
piece of epistolary humbug as any
that we have ever come across in
the open archives of diplomacy.
Does any one suppose that Mills
forgot that he had been invited in
his official capacity TO take part in
the most notable annual function
of the Government to which he has
been accredited Does any one ac-
cept the excuse that his memory of
the great coming event became a
blank as soon as his invitation was
put i'll some drawer or pigeon
hole, and this in spite of the fact
that the papers were full OF the
details of the approaching cere-
monies The plain truth is that
Mr.. Mills undertook to snub the
Hawaiian authorities, and now, in
his fear that the consequences may
be serious to himself, he invents 9
cheap excuse and apology. To oul
mind his letter adds insult to injury
because it presumes that the Min
lister of Foreign Affairs is in Office
to be played with.
Little Mills, the factotum of the
notorious Blount, ought not tC
have been received as Consult Gen
eral of the United States in the frs
place. Now that he is here his Of
fences have been such that hi:
Government ought to be notified tC
bundle him home at once, demijohr
and all.

A MATTER OF Sci PROSPECT

We feel at liberty to express the.
hope that unless the diplomats who
were guilty of the insult to the
Hawaiian Government on January
18th shall explain their course and
apologize for their faults of omis-
sion or commission, President Dole
will not hesitate to ask their Gov
ernments to recall them. A small
country must preserve its self
respect as carefully as a large one;
and how that could be done by ac-
knowledging and receiving diplo-
mats who will not acknowledge
and salute the Government to
which they have been accredited,
is a thing past finding out. AS
Hawaii stands, two Ministers have

 THE recent conviction of seve al desperate characters upon the charge of stage robbery speaks well for the administration of the office of United States District Attorney, of which our own townsman, E.

Some of the culprits will suffer the death penalty, and those who have been let off with a term of Imprisonment will in all like lihood be satisfied to engage in some profession that carries less risk when they once more face the outside world.

VIII Contest.

In this weeks issue appears the. mo- tice of a special term of the district court to be held on the 20th day of December, 1894, to pass upon the con test of Judge Alfred Ruiz vs. N. Con 2ales, for the office of county recorder. The main grounds of tho contest are illegal votes cast, and the further grounds that the election held at Fort Apache on the military reservation was null and void, for the reason that the judges of election cannot be resi- dent frcehoIders and householdcrs within said reservation. We have al- ways contended that the election at Fit. Apache was a nullity, for the rea- son that freeholder must be an owner of land for at least life estate. This is the least degree of a freehold estate. The judges of election must under the law be resident freeholders and house. holders in the precinct for at least one year prior to said election. If the judges did not possess these qualitica- tons the election there was nulity.
 We are unable to see how anyone can own land on military reserva- tion which is under the absolute con- trol, and is the property of the United States. The residents there pay no taxes and are exempt from jury duty and in fact they are no part of the county government.
 If these facts are shown to be good law. aud the election held at Ft. Apache is declared to be null and void, it will elect Judge Ruiz to said office.-- St. Johns Herald

The Prison Farm.

Through the courtesy of Assistant Superintendent Shaw, an inspection was made this morning of the prison farm which is being opened up near town. The location is on the tongue of land between the Colorado and Gi!a rivers and opposite the prison. A rope ferry crosses the latter stream. Yardmastcr w. II. Moore has had charge of about 20 men for two weeks and in that time over 20 acres of land have been cleared of dense growth of brush. This will be burned, after which blowing will commence. Very little leveling is needed, and 30 acres will be prepared for cultivation this season. One lJacrc has already been leveed and fenced and planted to a variety of vegetables. A pump has been rigged at cost of three dollars to raise water for irrigation. The land has not overtlowed during the last two seasons and levee three feet high will protect the farm from high water. The soil is of the richest and will raise anything with very light ir- rigation. Besides vegetables, the crops this year will consist of barley, beans, pumpkins melons, potatoes and corn. Several acres will be sown to alfalfa. Several thousand dollars a year are at present paid out for those articles and it will be the aim 10 raise all that are needed inside the prison walls. The men engaged in the work are all short time men placed on honor not to run away. No extra guard force is needed. They like the work and are employed about seven hours day. The total expense on account of the work up to date does not exceed $25. SuperiDten- dent Gates and Assistant Superinten- dent Shaw feel confident that the farm is going to be a success, both in atford- ing work for idle men and a saving in the annual expenses for supplies YuWa Timss'

CERTAIN French physicians cure colds by applying ice to the spine. Prof, piclct this week rut before the Academy of Medicine the whole sys- icm of frigotherapeutics. He began by experimenting on dogs, and found that when they were plunged into q bath at low temperature and were kept there for some time they became ravcuously hungry. Being himself q sufferer from stomach disease, he had forgotten what it was to have an appe- titc. So he descended into the rcfrig- eratiEg tank at a temperature many de- grcrs below zero. He wrapped a thick pelisse and other warm clothes about him, but after four minutes he began to feel hungry. At the end of eight minutes he climbed out of the tank with painfully keen appetite. Many such experiments were made. All meals taken, after short stay in the refrigerator, agreed with him. He found that his dyspepsia was cured after the tenth descent.

TIE French press is dcvoting good deal of attention to the address re- ccnflv made before the sociological congress, on the effect of education and crime. Since the passage of the act of 1870, the number of children in English schools has increased from ,j00. GOO to 5000, GOO, and the num- b .r of persons in prison has fallen from 2.O0O to 5000. The yearly average of persons sentenced Co penal servitude for the worst crimes has declined from 2,O00 to S0O, while juvenile offenders have fallen from II, GOO tO 5,O00. Sir John Lubbock sees in these figures a confirmation of Victor Hugo's saying, that "hc who opens q school closes a prison." In France, according to the Temps, criminal statistics and the statements of the magistrates show that, as schools have been opened pris- ons have been filled, and that tue diff fusion of education has been accom- panied, apparently, with increase of crime, and especially of juvenile crime In attempting to account for this phe- nomenon, the Temps points out that in France, under the republic, educa- ton is simply educational instruction.
 In England there is not only in- struction, but training. Moral and religious influences are brought to bear upsn the children,
