Sans SOuCi.

The most lovely spot on Oahu is
Sans Souci. This favorite seaside
resort, which has been immortalized
by the pen OF Robert l.. Stevenson,
who resided there for months, is
only four miles from Honolulu and
within easy reach of the tramcars.
The surroundings and bathing at
this famous resort are superior to
anything found in the Hawaiian
Islands. Cottages and board can
be obtained on easy terms. The
table set by the manager is better
than any offered here at other no.

and outings the best accommodation
can be secured by giving notice to

A portion OF that amount was used
for the payment Of the army, the
members of which received their full
dues at the end OF the month. We
suggest to the book keeper OF the
Finance Department that it would
be more businesslike to have made
the amounts advanced by Bishop &
Co., appear among the receipts of
the Treasury, and the actual dis.
bursements among the expenditures.

WEDNESDAY, OCT. 9, 1896.
INVESTIGATION NEEDED.

The Rising Sun, paper issued
in the Japanese language in Homo
lulu, states that two passengers ar
rived on the China for this port
from Yokohama, and we're permit
ted to land here without going into
quarantine, and without any precau-
tions being taken to prevent repe-
tition of the last blunder of our
health officials, which has cost the
country more than sixty lives. The
passengers were landed at 10 O'Clock
in the evening and nothing said
about it.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1895-10-09

The community felt rather uerv-
GUS when it heard that the China,
coming from cholera infected ports,
was allowed to land her half thou
sand Chinese passengers, simply to
suit a few meddlers who wanted
their two-penny mail sent off. A
feeling of safety was created,
though, when it was officially an
nounced that the steamer had not
touched at any port in Japan, but
came here direct from Hongkopg,
which, although an infected port, is
sufficiently far distant from Homo
lulu direct to be considered COM
paratively harmless, so far as cho-
lera is concerned.

TOPICS OF The DAY.

DR.. Wood says the microbe of
cholera will live in Nuuanu stream
for ninety days and for sixty days
more it may remain in highly
dangerous condition. And yet the
Board of Health, of which he is a
member, wanted physicians dis
missed on the other islands because
they recommended a greater than
five days quarantine. Better get
that stream cleaned out first and
then talk of how long quarantine
is necessary for safety.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1895-10-09

Again we urge on the Board of
Health the expediency of removing
the taboo from the catching OF fish
at all points outside of the harbor
and its mouth. Let fish be brought
in from all the uninfected districts
and sold under whatever restrictions
the Board may deem necessary. Let
permits be given to fishermen with
proper safeguards and much of the
present distress for want of employ
ment would be mitigated.

There have been considerable com
ments on the last comparative finan

The Hawaiian for September has
BEEN out a few days and is well
worth reading. la many points we
disagree with it but shall not dis
cuss them to-day. One thing is
noticeable however. In its preface
it says as follows: "We would like
to be able to convince the good
people of Hawaii OF one other
thing,-It is not so much the mat
ter as the man in discussing polltico
social questions. The American
declaration Of Independence would
have been ridiculous signed by 'an
American, "a citizen, 'kamaaina',
or any of those honorable words
which men are so prove to use as a
mantle to cover lishonorable act
or weak man. A rose by any other
names may smell as sweet, but all
things ara not roses and names
count when they stand for men.
Let us hear from you above your
own name" Yet when we examine
the contents we find the only
"politico- social" articles signed as
follows: A. NJ. Henderson, Hilary
Neal Weston, and B. H. Usher. The
story and the poems are signed by
snch well-known names as Ralph
Turner, Julien Darwin Hayne, aud
Julius A. Palmer, Jr. Why so much
promise and so different perform
ance? Consistency, thou art a
Jewell"

But now we learn from our Japa-
nese contemporary, and we have
verified the statements made by it,
that the China did touch at Yoko-
hama; did take passengers from
that infected port, and did bring
mail, the latter sent in U. S. mail
bags, to be transferred at San Fran
cisco, and to be returned to Homo
lulu by the first available boat.

That the Japanese residents here
kick because they are prevented
from getting the freight necessary
for their business, the mail which
informs them of the welfare of their
relations and friends, and appertain-
ing to their business interests, goes
without saying. That they kick
doubly when they learn that the
steamer from the Orient did call at
Japanese ports, and owing to the
panic raised by the Board of Health
in Honolulu, took advantage of
mean subterfuges, and landed Yoko-
hama passengers on the sly, while
denying having touched at that port,
is certainly justifable.

That the master and doctor of a
vessel should use all means, even
false pretenses, in serving their en-
ployers is perhaps natural. That
the Chest government Hawaii ever
had" should willingly and know
ingly expose the country to the
risks of another epidemic and sur
reptitiously smuggle passengers from
an infected port ashore is con-
temptible as we'll as dastardly. A
thorough investigation ought to be
made in regard to this matter ex-
posed by the Rising Sun, and the
blame and punishment be made to
fall on the heads of the guilty
parties.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1895-10-09

Every thinking man in Honolulu
understood and believed that the
China had not touched at Japanese
ports. They we're made to believe
so through the official statements of
the official papers, and the express
sions of the members of the Govern
ment. In the future we will know
how much faith to place in our
health authorities.

Timely Topics.
Honolulu, Sept. go, 1895.

questions of hygiene are the
main issues of the day. While
the learned scientists of Europe
are devoting their time and
skill to find remedies which
can destroy the disease breeding
germs, the diseases go on and
cholera, diptheria and typhoid
ravage cities and countries.
Whenever disease becomes
epidemic it is because the germ
found conditions which suited
it and in which it felt at home
and ready for business. The
sanitary conditions Of the town
and of the home becomes of
vital Importance. Honolulu is
having a taste of cholera epi-
demic and it behooves every
body to do his best in placing
every home in the best sanitary
condition possible.
When the general house, clean
ing which will take place next
Monday is over, many house
keepers will find some house
hold furniture which needs re-
newal and others missing both
as to utility and convenience.
We call attention to-day to
our Oil Stoves. The "Dietz"
Stove which we carry in stock
has gained a great reputation
everywhere. The one we espe-
cially recommend is the most
complete oil stove ever offered
in the market. 1t is perfectly
safe for the user of it, and it
will answer all purposes in a
well regulated household. Five
quarts of oil is sufficient to burn
ten to twelve hours. In ten
minutes a half gallon water can
be boiled. 1t will fry and boil,
bake or broil at the same time.
You can boil potatoes and bake
biscuit at the same time. In
ten minutes you can broil o
steak to perfection, and in an
hour and a half you can roast
an eight pound turkey. Once
tried the "Dietz' Oil Stove will
be found the very thing for the
housekeeper, and the price
brings it within the reach of
everybody.
The Water Coolers which we
have on hand are the very
things for restaurants, saloons,
schools and stores. After the
water is boiled fill the cooler
with it, and even without ice, it
will keep Il pleasant tempera-
ture. Large families will find
these highly ornamental coolers
of great advantage and a great
saving in regard to ice.
What, however, is more USE
full than a Monarch Bicycle. In
San Francisco and other places
mail and paper carriers, busi-
ness men and professional men
use the Monarch, and have
within the diamond arranged
leather bag, very easily fixed,
which will contain paper, docu-
ment, lunches and clothing and
do service as the saddle bags do to
the horseman. The Monarch is
