need better laws, and the good laws now
on our statute books should be enforced.
Hence we need good meu and true chris

CORRESPONDENCE.

Mr.. EDITOR: see in last even
ing's Star an item mentioning the
plan Mr.. Sweeney has come down
from Seattle to promote, namely,
establishing brewery.
At the first glance it may seem
a good thing to attract so much
capital here, but there may be
flaw in that conclusion. lift is not
resident capital, then profits will
be carried out of the country. and
that is not much better for the
islands than nonresident land
lords in Ireland.
Under some circumstances, this
evil must be borne, but it would be
better for general trade, for all
other agricultural lines, if the
owners of all money in the sugar
interest lived here and spent their
money here.
This brewing scheme has this
drawback, but it is not in itself a
beneficent thing as the sugar bust
ness is.
If it hourishes, it will take a
larger advance upon first cost for
its wares than any other business.
The history of breweries shows
that. But instead of giving some
thing useful in return, it is GER
tainly a useless article, as those
who never touch it get on perfectly
well without it, while it would be
easy to cite mischief enough aris-
ing from the use of beer, to cause
any one to pause and consider be-
fore he helped forward any such
scheme.
The writer hopes every one who
would object to having a brewery
planted at his own door, will in
one way or another enter his pro-
test.
1t is poor policy to allow that
which debauches the people for
gain, still poorer to allow foreigners
to send in their money for that
purpose.

Mr.. EDITOR Il venture to draw
your attention to a very grave error
which, by inadvertence, must have
crept into your report of Mr.. w.
n. Armstong's recent speech at the
Annexation Club.
Mr.. Armstrong is stated to have
declared his belief that Mr.. Cleve-
land is thoroughly honest man" ;
but this is what your report makes
Mr.. Armstrong say about himself:
"While he was with Kalakaua in
Vienna, in 1882, he met his old
friend VIM. Walter Phelps, then
American Minister to Austria, and
they discussed the question of the
future of Hawaii. Mr.. Phelps ad-
vocated annexation and insisted on
his (Mr. Armstrong;, seeing Mr..
Blaine on his return to Washing,
ton, and took the trouble to write
to Mr.. Blaine on the subject
"He (Mr. Armstrong;, did see
Mr.. Blaine, and found that he took
q warm interest in the matter, but
President Garfield died at that
time and Mr.. Blaine left office"
You are no doubt aware that dur
ing the whole of the time referred
to Mr.. Armstrong was confidential
minister in attendance upon King
Kalakaua, and holding, therefore,
the most sacred position of trust
which one man could hold toward
1t is, consequently, impossible
that Mr.. Armstrong can have made
any such statement as your report
alleges, or that the secret confer
ences can have taken place, as an
during the period when
Mr.. Armstrong was placing his
honor and faithfulness at the SER
vice of his sovereign.
1t is especially unfortunate that
you have published this report to
the larger audience which you say
it deserves.

MANY WORDS FROM ONE.
The Transportation Contest Comes
to An End.

The transposition contest on the
word "phonograph " has attracted
a great deal of attention during the
last week, and a large number of
lists have been turned in. Mr..
Stoeckle offered as prize the
privilege of hearing any six selec-
tons on the photograph for every
word turned in that was not
in his own list, but which
was capable of being formed
from the word photograph"
The largest list of correct words
that was turned in was that of
Thos. Hennessey, who had seventy
two correct words, three of which
were not listed by Mr.. Stoeckle.
The list is given below.

good lists and had a few new words
