They are we'll supplied with food
while the Kau and Kona people are
semi-starving. Every possible pre-
caution has now been taken in Ho-
nolulu to prevent the spread Of the
disease to the other islands. The
people must have food, and the
combined Attorney General and
President of the Board of Health
should cease encouraging the panic
stricken citizens who don't know
what they are talking about, and
who, for the sake Of exercising a
self-assumed brief authority, are
making their fellow-citizens miser-
able, and themselves and the Board
of Health ridiculous.
One OF the most remarkable official
documents which have ever appeared
in Hawaii is the letter of iustruc-
tions from the Board of Health to
residents on the other islands,
While Offering them an outline Of a
possible course of procedure it dis
tinctly tells the authorized com
mittees to do as they please after
consulting with the other residents
In other words the damning of the
Board OF Health has had its effects,
and now residents of the other is
lands can do as they please notwith-
standing the powers pertaining to
the Board of Health. People there
can permit passengers, freight or
mail at their pleasure, or stop all or
auy of them from being landed at
their will. The rebellion is endorsed.
In itself the letter does not seem so
faulty. But when one finds it offici-
ally stated that the orders are "that
all personal or party feelings be laid
aside and all act in harmony so far
as is possible" we think it time to
call attention to the fact that the
committees should not be made so
confoundedly onesided as they are.
We observe also that the President
graciously states that the news
papers will give information as to
what is going on in Honolulu. Well
we must doit, we suppose, as we now
have the authority of the Board.

Timely Topics.
Honolulu, Sept. II, 1895.

Honolulu overbid each other in
extolling the sanitary conditions
of Hawaii's capital and advertis-
ing it as the healthiest and most
beautiful place in the world; we
have done this so often and for
such length of time that we
finally came to believe what we
said and wrote.
The beauty is here but the
recent epidemic has clearly de-
monstrated that the beauty was
not even "soil" deep. We have
been roughly awakened to find
that the drinking water is i'm
pure and unfit for domestic pur-
poses; that the atmosphere is
polluted; and that the town gen
orally is in as filthy condition as
any Oriental overcrowded city.
Officials and private citizens
have been aroused and the cpl
demic will cause a thorough
cleansing of Honolulu, the con-
struction of proper sewerage,
and also general sense of the
necessity to adopt for each house
and each individual proper sani-
tary precautions.
We have placed in the market
filter for water taps. 1t is not
everybody who can afford to
purchase water filters but no
house should be without the Tap
Filter. The filter will fit all
Fin. taps, and the water running
through it will be thoroughly
filtered. All water should be
boiled before using but it is ne
cessary to filter it before boiling,
and for that purpose the Tap
Filter is the most practical and
simplest apparatus. We sell
them for $1.00 each.
Roberts Ozonator which has
recently won a great reputation
in the United States is the
surest and cheapest disinfector
known. From the Ozonator is
diffused "Sanitas Vaporizer Mix
ture" which is unequalled as a
germ destroyer, and the smell
OF which is pleasant and not
nauseating like other disinfec-
tants. The Ozonator ought to
be placed in all water closets,
bathrooms and other places ex-
posed to an unhealthy air. The
effects of the Ozonator are anti.
septic, disinfecting and deodo-
rizing In sick rooms, where
the patients suffer from diseases
breeding foul odors, the disip.
fecting apparatus has proven a
boon and promptly DESTROYED
the foulness of the air. The
Ozonator costs only $500, and
nobody purchasing one will ever
regret the investment.
Besides discussing the above
sanitary goods we will call at
tention to the new Electric Vib-
rating Bell which we sell for the
low price of $3.50. For that
amount the purchaser gets fifty
feet of wire, a dry battery, the
vibrating bell and the necessary
staples, etc, The bell is easily
put up and it will prove a great
convenience to people whose
servants live in detached cot
tages, or who wish facilities to

This water was collected after the
heavy rains of last week, when the
stream was running full and free.
The amount of organic matter is
too great, and shows, even at best,
that the water should never be used
for domestic purposes.
The excess of albuminoid ammo
MIA in Nos. 2 and 3 over that found
in No. shows that the stream is
receiving sewage in its course and
becoming polluted thereby.

TOPICS OF The DAY.
"More than thirty men and wo-
men we're murdered in the city of
San Francisco in the twelve months
ending with June this year. Several
of these we're decided to be cases of
justifable homicide, but in twenty
seven cases the Coroner's jury re-
turned verdict of wilful murder.
For these twenty-seven murders
only four persons have so far been
punished by law, and these four
have escaped with terms OF impri-
sonment. The rest of the murder
ers are awaiting trial, have been ac-
quilted, have escaped, or are dead"

Civilization seems to have attain
ed higher proportions there, than in

ing for house to house delivery of

waiians. 1t instances cases where
people having relief tickets had to
go empty handed away from the
ladies central relief station owing to
being elbowed away by the crowd.
A Bulletin correspondent wants
one saloon and one drugstore kept
open day and night. He suggests
that turns be taken in carrying out
the suggestion. Firstly there are
more saloons than drugstores in the
city, so the turn business would
press unduly on the latter. Second
ly it seems rather an insinuation
that after going to the saloon one
would need to go to the drugstore.
Or perhaps it is vice.versa. The
suggestion seems to us impractic-
able in it's present shape.
It. B. Walker is an inventor. The
Scientific American says he has got

The Women's Relief Assoc alton
have decided on having branch sta
tions for distribution of supplies to
the INDECENT Hawaiians. They also
have decided to help any relief So
cieties for other nationalities which
may be formed. They are right in
both actions and are commended
for it. Do what is right and take
good advice when it is given to you,
The Bulletin evidently does not
understand the force of the word
"pratique." Pratique can only be
granted when quarantine has been
thoroughly complied with and the
ship its cargo and passengers proved
to the satisfaction of the Health
officials to be thoroughly free from
contagious or infections disease
That is all that international law
demands. Now as to the people OF

The special red rag which affects
the temper of the ex-Commissioner
is the statement that he has "insi-
diously worked against any closer
relations with the United States"
Mr.. Armstrong has in his capacity
of editor and as Labor Commis-
sioner used every measure and argu-
ment in promoting an increased in
flux of Chinese and Japanese, in
praising and promoting closer COM
mercial relations with Japan, and in
placing the advantages which he
claims we can derive from that coun-
try in rose-colored light unfavor-
able by comparison to the United
States. If it is by such means that
he claims that he is working for an
nexation, we think that the Portu-
guese are correct in doubling his
sincerity and in asserting that his
endeavors are against-not for-an-
nexation.

THE PORTUGUESE COLONY.

The leading Portuguese citizens
in the town have finally got tired of
the everlasting sneers with which
the philo- Asiatic Advertiser has
constantly treated them. In a
straight forward letter published in
the Star, they expressed their opinion
of the Advertiser and the editor

w. N. Armstrong says the sugges-
tion that the Advertiser is Gin any
sense a government organ" "has
always been promptly resented" No
Doubt But that doesn't disprove
it. Resentment is not freedom from
guilt-always.

Skilful Japanese say that new or
or low class saki will breed worms
unless boiled. The containers used
in the trade are common pine wood
and wrapped in straw-both sub
stances liable to transmit germs.
Why not stop the trade for while?
Instead of working on real live
issues the Star has been diving into
the Bible to show that women
painted as long ago as when Abra-.
ham walked on this sublunary
sphere. Then to qualify that he
tackles the men for smoking and
says bicycling leads to the consump-
tion of fewer cigars but adds ''either
walk or drive suggests smoke"
Sometimes it suggest something else
for the other party, may not like
smoking.
A number OF Hawaiians have view
ed the census taken by the sanitary
inspectors with great deal of sus-
picion. Some of the idiots who un-
fortunately have the care and conf
dence of the Hawaiians have given
out that the reason for taking
census is TO get names for an annexa-
tion petition This is on par with
the belief scattered among them
that the white doctors are poisoning
them. Those responsible for such
reports and ideas ought to be treated
as criminals.
If the cabinet really will ASSIST
the Hawaiiaus in getting work and
bread, it must suspend the rule now
in force that only those have taken
the oath to the republic are to be
employed by the road supervisor and
other officials. The oath is obnoxi-
Gus to the Hawaiians and many of
them will rather starve than take a
solemn oath with their mouths and
not with their hearts. And what
difference does it make to the re-
public9 An oath taken to get bread
does not give the republic one more
supporter. The lack of work creates
class of beggars dependent on
public charity. Let the cabinet
show its liberal mind and that the
republic is free from all bigotry by
dropping the oath business.
The letter published elsewhere
from the Board of Health to the
health committees appointed for the
other islands furnish some very
funny reading, Mr.. w. o. Smith

In the elegant language for which

ask Mr.. Armstrong whose dollars it
