CHIEF CROWLEY, in his report
to the United States Secretary
Of the Treasury on opium SNUG
Cling in San Francisco, says
the reduction Of the import duty
from $12 to So has caused a
marked decrease in the amount
of opium smuggled into that city !;
also, a large increase in the revenue
derived from that drug. The result
is what might be expected. The
tariff is reduced below the pro-
hibitory figure, and, naturally
enough, the importers take advan-
tage of legitimate methods of bring
ing the drug into the country rather
than run the risk of possible con-
fiscation if struggled goods are cap
tured. The conclusion drawn favor
ing the reduction of the tariff are
much on the same plane as the argu-
ments against the prohibition OF the
liquor traffic" Give us free rum
and the people will get better stuff"
1t is a parley with an evil in which
the tendency is for the evil to win.

RUSSIA'S LATEST MOVE.

From a British standpoint rela-
tions with the nations of the West
ern hemisphere have dropped into
comparative insignificance before
the suggestions that have arisen
on account of the mysterious move
ments of the Russian fleet in East
ern waters. While the tone of the
English newspapers is decidedly
warlike, and the situation among
the powers of Europe has a more
threatening and serious appear
ance than has been in evidence for
some time past, it is possible that
the movements of the Russian fleet
will be attended with no more seri-
Gus complications than character
lied the recent mysterious maneu-
vering of the British fleet, when
the press of Japan looked for some
thing more aggressive than the
ultimatum TO China. Russia's
aspirations to acquire a winter
harbor Is, however, a constant
menace to peace and quiet in the
Orient and Europe, and it Is barely
possible that this latest move is the
preliminary step of an active cam
paign to gain possession of the COW
eted port.
The Chronicle suggests than an
explanation of the Russian mys-
terry will be found in the treaty
that has Just been negotiated, ac-
cording to report, between Russia |
and China. 1T is said that the
treaty is far-reaching in its terms,
not only from a commercial but
from a military and naval stand
point Among the distinct advan-
tages granted to Russia Is the right .
of anchorage for her naval fleet at .
Port Arthur. If the story of
the treaty is true, therefore. it
may be that the feet that has Just
sailed from Vladivostock may have
Port Arthur as its destination.
Port Arthur is still in the hands OF
Japan. Should Russia claim the
harbor as a naval station under a
concession from China, granted
while the place is still held by vic
toriOus Japan, the latter might well
refuse to complete the retrocession,
which was forced upon Japan, it
Will be remembered, by Russia and
her allies, France and Germany.
The seriousness of the situation
will be understood when it is as
serted that Great Britain would
certainly encourage and sustain
Japan in this course. While Russia,
France and Germany united under
the leadership OF Russia, to force
Japan to modify the treaty of
peace with China and yield the
peninsula, which Port Arthur COM
mands, and while the three nations !

AS pumping is one of the
most common uses TO which
wind motors are put, the
method of communicating
motion to the pump is very
important and has received
our closest attention, and the
defect created in most wind
mills of racking themselves to
pieces in a severe wind has
been obviated in the Aermotor
by means of back gearing, SO
that the wheel makes about
three turns to one stroke Of
the pump or enough SO that
the wheel may run at its natural
speed, unrestrained in any
wind, without doing
violence to the pump or its
connections. This enables us
to give the pump a long stroke
instead ofthe quick, jerky, short
strokes of ordinary wind mills.
This means that the valves are
not worked so harshly in open
ing and closing and that the
wear and tear is greatly dimin
ished, while the piston rod
speed is increased, and conse-
quently the pumping capacity |
IS increased. The back gear
.ng, together with the extra
holes for crank pins in the
crank wheel also makes it pos
sible to use with the Aermotor
any ordinary size of pump
cylinder. If a wind motor is

The following is among the let
tiers received by the Board Of
Health:
At the meeting OF the committee
of the Board Of Health for the ISL
and OF Maui, held at Kahului on
September the 2Ist, 1895, your cir
cular letter dated September 10Th,
1895 MONDAY, 6:3o p. m. was
taken up for consideration, aud af-
ter discussion /, as secretary OF
the committee, was instructed to re-
ply as follows:
The committee ior the Island OF
Maui fully acknowledge the ability
and the earnest action taken by the
Board of Health of Honolulu in
their dealing with the cholera
epidemic ON the Island Of Oahu,
and their careful consideration OF
regulations to prevent the transmits
sion Of the disease TO the other ISL
ands, and sympathize with the
Board in the amount Of intelligent
and arduous work that has been
devoted to the controlling Of the
dread disease, and fully admit that
the Board have Opportunities to
judge" what is best. But in reply
to your circular letter this commit
tee must deny that we have ever
held extreme" views or in any
way attempted "dictation" as to the
action of the Board Of Health. We
do, however, claim that we are the
best judges Of the situation here,
and while we will at all times defer
to the better judgment and expert.

eral regulations, we claim the right

tions any further precautionary
measures our local situation or RI
quirements may necessitate On the

Claudine) this matter was fully die-
cussed ON the arrival Of the steam,
here, and the committee found that
quarantining was out OF the question,
where to quarantine was the diff.
Guilty, the race track of Kahului
was mentioned, but il is situated in
a low, marshy place and with the ex-
ception Of a few stables has nothing
in the way of accommodation; it Is
but a few hundred yards from Ka-
hului, through which the passen-
gers would have to be transported,
and would not only be Intellectual
as a quarantine station but from
temperature and noxious surround
ings would probably be the direct
cause Of fever amongst the unfortu-
nate passengers confined there.
Outside Of the place referred TO
we have nothing available. We
are not as happily situated as our
Hilo friends with their lovely island
in the bay, forming as complete a
location as any ON the islands. The
only other quarantine possible here
is a quarantine on the vessel in the
harbor of Kahului within a short
distance Of the shore, such quaran-
tine in case of sickness on the vessel
would be a direct menace to the
community.
The Board Of Health Of Honolulu
evidently do not understand our
local circumstances, we have no
city or city limits, we have popu-
lation, the majority Of whom live in
scattered habitations on the banks
Of our streams aud in the vicinity
Of our water courses. We have but
two doctors in the district Of Wal
luku and should the cholera once
obtain foothold, the inevitable end
under existing conditions would be
dire calamity. We have not in
any way threatened armed resist
ance to the carrying out of the
regulations Of the Board Of Health,
but have carefully considered the
local necessities and fail to see in
what way we have been "unreGson
able" There has been much indi
vidual criticism Of Maui in the
newspapers which the committed
did not think il necessary to notice
but the publication of the officia
circular now under reply makes i
necessary in the opinion Of tn,
committee to assure you that all ac
tion Of this committee has only
been taken after a careful and con
servative consideration Of the cir
cumstances governing our specia
conditions, and without "panic,
undue fear" or intention to act il
opposition to the Board of Healtf
Of Honolulu. So far the citizens o
Maui have fully endorsed our ac
tion.
The Board of Health instructions
Of September 10th allowed us thu
use Of our discretion and in addition
made the suggestion that the Clau

impossible, the Journal says. to esti-
mate the actual loss that has occurred
through these fires on shipboard, as
statements Of loss havo been
approximated in only limited
number of cases available for com
pilation, but it is probable that
the, seasons losses through fires in
cargoes Of American cotton will largely
exceed a million dollars, which by con-
trast with the loss in Egyptian and
Indian cotton Is beyond all comparison,
such thing as fire in those cargoes
being practically unknown. The reason
assigned for this state of affairs is the
loose baling Of American cotton and the
carelessness in covering and handling
it.; whereas the cotton of the other
countries referred to is baled 30 tightly
that it becomes practically as imper-
vious to combustion as log OF wood.
The worst part of the report, however,
is the statement that large number of
the fires in American cotton were Of
incendiary origin.
