A Connecticut pastor one recent
Sunday, after telling God in his long

exactlythis form of expression. .1But,

that comes from the divine throne OF

is golden. Improve what you have,
however little, and more shall be Civ.

will not neglect it, shall lift even you
up to God and glory. "Who hath

A CHRISTIAN LADY was suffering
extreme pain she was unable, for
more than few moments, to attend
10 any word of comfort. The words
of David "Thou art near o Lord J"
were repeated to her. 1t was the very
message she needed. In the nearness
of her God and Savior she found
strength to bear patiently her heavy
cross.

ANOTaER CONVICTION.
Lyman WaSserman Has Been
Selling beer.

In Justice Davis court Wednesday.
Hyman Wasserman was convicted of
selling beer Illegally. The complaint
was made by William G. Loper. The
witness was David Jones. The testi
mony was that Jones went to Wasser-
mans place on Cohansey street, or
dered "a bottles of beer which he had
delivered up the railroad. He paid 50
for the beer. The offense was COM
mitted on the 14th of February.
The defense was that Wssserman
sold Jones two cases or five gallons,
which he had a right to sell. Wasser-
man took the order on Cohsnsey street
and delivered the beer from his Hope
we'll township bottlirg place. The
sale was made, according to Wasser-
man, on the IS h of Feb, and not the
14th.
The Justice believed the story of
Jones, however, adjudged Wasserman
guilty, and fined him $25 and costs.

A DAMAGING VINDICATION.

There is a popularity in the
phraseology of the certificate of
good character which Mr.. SAMSON
of Victoria presents to Mr.. Davies
of Craigside, which we omitted to
mention yesterday but which is
worthy of note. Mr.. SAMSON as
serts that Mr.. Davies has nothing
whatever to do with himself and
"the subject mentioned"
This expression, the subject
mentioned" would seem to imply
that some one had this matter in
hand, and that the person who
has, is the one apparently entitled
to speak with authority on the SUBJ
ject, namely, Mr.. SAMSON himself.
A certificate of good character
couched in this style is something
which, in "almost" the language of
Shakespeare, compromises him
that gives and him that takes.
Says Mr.. G. w. H. SAMSON, II
assure you, gentlemen, Mr.. Davies
has nothing to do with this con-
spiracy."
We fervently hope that Mr.. Da-
vies enjoys being exonerated in
language which suggests the CO.
conspirator.

TWO IMPORTANT MEASURES.

The most important action taken
by the Councils yesterday was the
passage of bill restricting immi-
grafton in 80 radical Il manner that
the Government will have the mat
ter in its full control. There is
nothing harsh in this law; nothing
in contravention of established
practice and settled constitutional
principles. 1t is based practically
on the immigration legislation of
the United States.
The bill which provides for the
deportation of dangerous charac-
tiers. however, is by no means so
simple measure. In the abstract
it is law of an undesirable kind,
and vests more power in the State
than the individual is generally
willing to see. At the same time
exceptional circumstances demand
exceptional precautions. Circum-
stances here are of this kind.
While the matter is in hand, how
ever, the Councils might as well go
the full length and adopt some
form of administrative process"
which will enable the Government
to dispense with the presence of
turbulent and seditious characters.
Sach laws are customary on the
continent Of Europe They work
no hardship to the law-abiding,
and there are times when they are
necessary.
Put the weapon in the hands of
the Government. 1t will be used
with justice, moderation and dis
erection.

1t is hoped that soon a free kinder

that these numbers and statistics are

The Woman's Board of Missions,
in order to put this work on proper
and lasting basis, has undertaken the
charge of it. A special kindergarten
department" has been formed, eff
cient committees have been appointed,
funds are to bs raised to properly
equip and support these schools, and,
with Gods blessing, a great future
seems to be awaiting the work already
begun. 1t is an undertaking which
appeals to all. The work planned is
an undenominational one-an all
embracing scheme for the uplifting of
the little ones of all nationalities in
our midst. / understand that, this
week, large number of circulars are
to be sent broadcast through our COM
munity by one who has been deeply
stirred by the significance of the kim
dergarten movement, to make an ap-
peal, as q woman to other women, for
the maintenance OF this important and
promiseful work, now just beginning,
which should grow till all the little
ones in these fair sea-girt isles of ours
can feel its blessed influence. In this
most Christ-like undertaking, she has
the earnest sympathy and co-opera-
ton of many others; will not all
listen to her words and "lend a help
ing hand?" First "place for the
ladies J" Then, will the heads of the
great houses, the leaders in finance,
all our business men come to the res
cue? Will they not enter into friendly
rivalry with the men of San Fran
cisco, our near neighbOrs, who so
nobly and with such knightly spirit
aided, with their golden gifts, this
new and most Christian crusade?

A HAWAIIAN SYMPOSIUM.

The New York Independent pub.
fishes symposium on the Hawaii
an question, to which contribu-
tons are made by a number of
leading politicians, editors and
clergymen. All, with single ex-
ception, are opposed to the restora-
ton of Liliuokalani. Probably
these opinions, drawn as they are
from different sections of the coun-
try, different parties and different
professions, are fairly representa-
tive of the average sentiment of
the country. Apart from the con-
vincing nature of their utterances,
the eminence of the men making
them entitle them to the greatest
weight.
We publish this morning the
contribution made to this group of
opinions by the Hon. Noah Davis,
ex-Chief Justice of the New York
Supreme Court. 1t is a calm and
convincing statement of the rights
of the Provisional Government.

THE PACIFIC CABLE.

The ADVERTISER day or two
since contained the following
item:
The projected Canada Australia
cable, it is stated, would be 6244 miles
long and cost 100000, if it did not
touch the Fiji Islands or New Zea-
land. 1t is assumed the cable would
be laid by and would belong to the
Colonies benefited. Allowing for all
contingencies, the total cost is put at
SIS, 10, 900, which, at 3 per cent,
would make an annual interest charge
of 1921, $50. Counting depreciation at
100000 and the operating expenses
at $500, 900 per year, the total annual
amount to be met would be S72l, $50,
Eek.
The distance from Honolulu to
Monterey Bay is 20S0 miles, and
allowing for slack it will require
2247 miles of cable costing $685.
400. Three per cent. interest on
the above will be $S0,892 per
annum. The Hawaiian Govern
ment has offered to guarantee
$4,000 per annum. All it re-
quires is similar annual guaranty
from the United States Govern
ment of $4,000, and the cable will
be laid within twelve months. The
business of the company ought to
amount to 100000 the first year
and 100000 the second year.
Then why not lay the cable at
once?

THE Louisiana Lottery, which
was supposed to have been driven
out of the United States altogether,
has succeeded in establishing a
foothold in Florida. The New
York Nation, which was Indifferent
or contemptuous upon the subject
of the lottery in Honolulu, finds Its
establishment in Florida a scandal
and expends good deal of just in
dignation upon it. This is an
average sample of the fairness
which journals of the Nations
political stripe have brought to
the Hawaiian question.

they will never do anything overt

KEEP THEM OUT.
cretion.

The stream of doubtful and IN
certain characters which is Just
now setting towards Honolulu from
the outer world is a source of dan.
ger against which the Government
should take prompt measures. II
is not necessary to suppose that
these men come here directly look
ing for mischief, or that they are
deriving their maintenance from
a royalist purse. 1t is sufficient to
know that their antecedents are
unknown, their purposes obscure,
and their means of support invisi-
BILE. The presence of such men in
the community during these troub-
lous times is a menace, and it
should not be allowed.
The ADVERTISER is informed that
the Government has this matter in
hand, and bills are being prepared
with the double object of enabling
the Government to prevent doubt
full characters from coming here,
and to get rid of those who have
already arrived. Every nation has
the right to determine whom it
shall exclude from its territories.
This is good time to have strin-
gent immigration law supplement-
ing and fortifying the provisions of
that which was introduced by
Cecil Brown into the Legislature
of 1892, and passed by that body.
The United States has for some
time protected itself by such laws,
and the steamship companies
which bring emigrants in contra
vention of their provisions are COM
PEELED to take them back again,
besides being answerable for the
expense of their arrest and deten-
ton. When Hawaii has passed a
law, and the agents of steam
ers and sailing vessels on the Pa
cifc Coast have received notice of
its provisions and of the intention
of this Government to enforce
them, the undesirable immigra-
ton will cease.
To get rid of the undesirable
characters already here will not be
so easy a matter. At the same
time law can and should be
passed, giving the Government the
power TO deport them, upon sufi-
cient proof that they are vagrant
or dangerous persons. In the
meanwhile the Marshal has his
eye on the crowd and the Govern
ment is ready to deal with them.

MINISTER DAMON made speech
in the Council yesterday which
does his heart a great deal and his
head very little credit. His asser-
ton of the principles of popular
rule will find an echo in every
heart. When, however, by some
unaccountable alteration he iden-
titles "the people" with the Amer
lean League, and supposes that
organization to represent, in some
peculiar and monopolistic way, the
public sentiment of these islands,
he does not find an echo, but only
provokes a smile.
