SLEEPS HEAD SPEAKS.
He Wants People to Find Ont
What They Are Doing.

Mr.. EDITOR 1t may be well
enough to use the occasion of the
present scare to good advantage
by causing at this time the city to
undergo a careful examination as
to its sanitary condition, revive the
question of putting in a proper
sewer system, and the condemning
of various stencil holes. But GER
tainly it is not fair to the business
men and bread-winners to handle
the question in the uncertain man
ner that it is being handled.
1t is generally understood around
town that the physicians who have
had experience in caring for and
coping with Asiatic cholera have
not as yet had sufficient evidence
to warrant them in pronouncing
the sickness, of which several
have lately suddenly died, as the
dreaded disease nor have the
public been given to understand
that the steps taken have been of
simply precautionary nature. 1t
IS a well known fact that one of the
greatest spreaders of this disease,
even among people of stronger wills
and less superstition than the ma
tive Hawaiians, Is the fear of the
disease, and many cases are on
record to prove persons to have
died of sickness brought on solely !
by fright.
The partial stopping of travel |
and hinderance to traffic will not |
help matters, and makes business
stagnant as well as cesspools, and |
gives people time to conjecture and
talk cholera. Find out if it is
cholera, and let people know that
that is what is being done. If it
is, Immediately stop all travel by
steamers, trains or cars, and forbid

ORIENTAL LUXURY HOME

The wonders of the Orient lay re-
vealed before the eyes of all who care
to see them, and that, too, without it
being necessary to journey to lands
across the seas.
The Oriental never does any more
work than is necessary, and when not
working, his engrossing care is to
make himself comfortable. In many
respects the art of living appears bet
ter understood in the East than in
our bustling Western world.
There is now hardly a fashionable
home that has not its Oriental room
or rooms, or at least its coy corner;
sometimes the latter is Japanesque in
effect, sometimes Turkish; but what
ever it is, be sure it is the result of an
inner craving for the beautiful things
of life.

CHOLERA HOSPITAL.
Board of Health Selects Immf-
= grafton Depot.

I A short meeting of the Board of
Health was held Saturday after
noon at 3 o'clock. It was decided
to use the immigration depot as a
cholera hospital, where persons
affected with the dreaded disease
will be removed at onceI The pro-
ject of using part of the2quarantine
station as cholera hospital was
totally abandoned, it being unwise
to expose to cholera the five hun
dred odd immigrants now at that
place. The immigration depot will
be put in good condition at once
and the walls of the buildings
whiteWashed.
The matter of burying bodies
within the city limits was also dis
cussed. 1t was finally decided
that in the future no bodies shall
be buried within the city limits.
The present burying grounds were
considered to be in an over crowd
ed condition and unsafe to the
health of the city's population.
After the meeting the members
to the quarantine station,
where a minute investigation was
made. Everything was found in
the very best of condition and the
health of the immigrants good.

VOICE FROM KAKAAKO
Residents Object to Debris Being
Deposited in That Region.

Dep0SlLeQ IN mat Region.
Mr.. EDITOR The residents oil
Kakaako would like to have your
paper let the general public know
what is being done with the dirt
and filth of Honolulu, more espec-
tally during the last few days, as
there has been ten times as much
filth deposited as heretofore, since
the Board of Health has under
taken to clean the town. Living
at the end of Queen and South
streets has never been similar to
living in the Garden of Eden and
the Paradise of the Pacific. Mr..
Cooke used to cremate most of the
filth. Lately it has been used to
fill in lots, with good dirt on top.
But 1 never knew of a dead horse
or mule being buried a few feet
under ground as has been done by
order of city physician and that
about one hundred feet more or less
from the residences of this section.
Saturday morning three drays of
all sorts of filth from all parts of
the town were dumped at the end
of Queen street almost in front of
a new store and right at the side of
the new Beach road. There were
about twelve native men and women
picking over this filth. The women
were dressed in their night gowns
and the men in their underclothes.
Children were there as well. No |
one could tell what might be in |
this filth or what will yet be the |
outcome of these natives picking
over and using decayed vegetables
and fruits for swipes and other uses.
We would respectfully ask that
cesspool carts be prohibited from
dumping liquid matter from closets
and cesspools in this vicinity, as at
night the smell is something ter
rible, more especially these last
few nights, since more material is
being dumped there than ever be-
fore. We also ask that those who
own lots that are full of green, i'll
smelling water be made to fill them
in with land from the beach with
out further delay. A lady in town
told me she went to take walk on
the new Beach road a few nights
ago, and the smell was 80 nauseating
that she will never go out on the
Beach road again.
Some of those who live in Frank
Cookies new houses have to keep
their Punchbowl windows closed at
night. If something is not done
will be leaving Kakaako.
What surprises the people of this /
and is causing no little in 1
is to have debris depos- I
tied here when all the filth that
would perhaps never have been
dug up but for this scare is taken
from one part of town and dumped '
On the parts that need more clean J
ng than any other. Who ever s
heard of a dead horse being buried t
within half a block of thickly pop t
llated parts. Mr.. Quinn of 900 q
hack stand says he was never al
owed to bury dead horses in that /
He had to take them a
beyond the rifle range or beyond Y
he reef. We want the citizens to
lave a look around the dumps and v
ZEE for themselves. We respect C
ully ask for something to be done t
It once in this case. b

KEEP OFF THE GRASS.

LET them eat hay, great Foulon said
The day before he lost his head;
The people are cattle, let them eat
The same as other kline or sheep;
Why should the people ask for more
When there is hay enough in store!
Let them eat hay while there's chance
Was heralded throughout all France.
The people rose in all their might,
And Premier Foulon fell that night,
And in his mouth was found next day,
Where all could see, tuft of hay.
Keep off the grass. the tyrant said
To a people who have been denied
The right to labor for their meat,
And haven't even hay to eat.
Why should the people, as they pass,
Forget the law, Keep off the grass
Keep off the grass, the tyratn said;
But we do not want the tyrant's head:
Ballots not bullets, are the test
That will put the plutocrats to rest;
And that's the only proper way
For laborers to gain the day.

against the referendum, using the same
argument only in a little different
phraseology.
Week after week for the past year we
could see that the editorials of all the
hireling tory county newspapers were
colored by the ncomprehensible, illog-
ical utterances of the mighty Horn. But
Harvey gave him his quietus.
When was a boy and read the story
of Judas l felt that he was the most
wicked man that ever lived. I have
changed my mind. In fact, feel a
sort of compassion for him. Think of
the awful anguish, the terrible remorse
of conscience which drove him to hang
himself, and to take such drop that it
bursted him asunder. No, Mr.. Iscariot
was gentleman, humanitarian and
saint, compared to the double dyed
traitors who not only sell their Christ,
but barter away the liberties of the poor

And send on high our battle cry
For freedom and the right.
Hurrah! Hurrah!

Hurrah! Hurrah! For the coming day

And that is-Liberty.
We ask for simple justice,
For that we make our fight,
For home we stand, and native land
And freedom and the right.

vocate the perpetuation of system that
gives his salary a greater purchasing
power today than it ever had. It is an
outrage that this man Folwell should be
drawing as large salary from the state
today as he received when times were
good. The great mass of the taxpayers
find it more difficult matter to raise $50

A Number of BurgInrfes. and Petty
Thefts Reported.
brownsville, Ca, Aug. 2O.-United States
Commissioner Roddenberry's office has
been robbed and Uncle Sam is poorer by
a quantity of contraband articles, which
had been collecting in the commissioners
hands. Chief among these goods was
quantity of whisky and beer. So far no
trace of the thief has been found.
A number of robberies and burglaries or
varied nature have occurred recently
in this city.
Capt. Hicks had stuck five silver dollars
on the inside of his show windows to at
tract the lovers of free silver from the
country. One of these devotees, most
likely from the city, however, undertook
Sunday night to get the silver. The win
dow was heavy plate glass and stood Oh
Broad street in the glare of a powerful
arc light, but there was the white metal
tempting any silverite who was bold
enough to take it.
Two dollars had fallen down and lodg-
ed on the bottom of the window. The
thief, with some kind of instrument,
broke a hole opposite the coin, put his
hand in and removed the money, leav-
ing some of his own blood on the glass.
