NOT long since one OF our CORE
spondents remarked that some Of
the individuals affected with acute
dyspepsia on all matters pertain
ing to the Government, had their
garbage pail ever behind the door
ready to bring into use when they
were sure it was time to "stop pray
ing and begin swearing" The
first dash from the bucket comes in
the form of a statement that the
Board of Health is discriminating
against st. Louis College in order
ing that no pupils from infected
districts be received at any schools.
Knowing the owners of the pail
and the wise heads that contribute
the garbage, it might be foregone
conclusion that the community is
possessed with the idea that the
Board of Health has been sitting
up nights trying to invent some
means of making it uncomfortable
for those interested in st. Louis
College and Catholic schools
in general. There are a great
many might have beens
in this world, and, as in
the present instance, they are
usually the product of cranial cavi-
ties furnished on the installment
plan-with numerous installments
still unpaid. Intelligent outsiders
have too much confidence in the
good sense of the faculty of st.
Louis College to believe that they
share in or give any credence to the
idea that their institution has been
the victim of unjust discrimina-
ton.

MORE CRANKs WANTED.

When, in 1852, it became a seri-
Gus question whether Kansas would
become a free or a slave State, one
set of men in the Northern States
Kept sending off resolutions to Con-
gress, asking that it be made free
State. Another set of men, includ-
ing old John Brown, "whose soul is
marching on" set about putting
free emigrants into that Territory.
The earnest and plain people of the
North put their hands in their
pockets and sent American farm
ers, not resolutions" into the
prairie, and with Sharps' rifles, too.
The Democratic and Wing press
denounced these homely proceed
ings, and said the whole lot did
not reach the dignity and worth of
cranks," and that they were a sorry
lot of ragamufins, and ought to be
kicked out. But it was the farm
ers, and not the resolutions" that
made Kansas free. Old John
Brown, who was the worst of the
inferior cranks, did not attend
many political meetings, but he
made the roads to Kansas dusty
with free American emigrants, who
could vote.
Rev. Joseph Cook, whose address
here on the Fourth of July was re-
Gently published in the New York
Independent, was unmuzzled here
under the auspices of a highly re-
spectacle committee, repeated on
that occasion what he had said in
public a year before, that it was the
opinion of the great Simon Bolivar
that 8 free republics could not exist
in the tropics" and that attempt
ing to establish free republics in
the tropics was like blowing per-
manent burrows in the ocean"
We, however, and some other
weak and harmless cranks," be-
lieve tLat he was wrong; that re-
publics can exist in the tropics, if
there is the will and the energy to
create them, and that Hawaii

DON'T STAND ON CEREMONY.

Out Of the multitude OF opinions
pro and con upon the be-: method
of dealing with the Nuuanu stream,
the Government has evolved a
plan by which q roadway is OBJ
tanned on either side, the course of
the stream Strengthened, and the
amount Of property to be obtained
from private individuals reduced
TO a minimum. The question of
appropriation now comes up as a
probable source of delay in carry
ing the work forward to completion.
The Council of State feels delicate
in taking the initiative, since its
powers of appropriation are con-
fined to "the emergencies Of war,
invasion, rebellion, pestilence or
other great public necessity" True
it is that we are not at pres
ent suffering from pestilence,
but if the walling of Nuuanu
stream is not a public necessity,
we would like to know under what
head it is to be placed. The
stream, in its present condition, is
now and always will be, a constant
menace to the public health of
Honolulu and, indirectly, of the
whole country. Should the work
of reconstruction be carried as far
as present appropriations will al
low, and then await the action of
the Legislature, the country is
taking chances at short odds.
If the city should escape fur
Their contamination during the
delay, the best that can be said
will be that "we've been lucky"
In this instance the Council of
State cannot afford to stand on
and hope for the best.
The stream has been condemned,
and once the plan of its redemption
mas been decided upon there should
pc no delay in starting the work of
Improvement, and once started, of
completing it. The people are thor
