ACCORDING to late reports from
Madagascar the Hovas are perfect
ly satisfied with French rule and
are not likely to again rise in re-
bellion. Under the new treaty
France will represent Madagascar
in all foreign relations. French
officers will reorganize the army OF
the Hovas, and the Queen promises
to be guided by the French Presi-
dent in all her actions. The French
have complete sway and are not in
clined to conceal their pleasure at
having outwitted whatever designs
England may have had on the ter
ritory. Deputy Many says: ave
do not fear British competition in
Madagascar. We need that coun-
try as an outlet for our own over
production. Neither do we care to
have Mr.. Rhodes's pioneers there,
who are ready and waiting to col
onize the territories we have paci-
fed. We want neither English nor
German nor Italian colonists in the
island. If necessary, we can colon
ize the island with such of our peo-
pie who are dangerous but yet re-
formable." This theory of coloniz-
ing taken up in Madagascar ought
to furnish food for thought in this
country.

IT'S EVERYBODY'S BUSINESS.

A FEW days ago, the editor of
this paper received a more or less
lengthy epistle from one of the
good solid citizens of this town set
ting forth in vigorous language,
reasons why his name should not
have appeared in the paper in con-
nection with an every day sort of
an incident. Our friend claims
that on this occasion mentioned he
was on his own private business,
and it was nobody's business what
he did anyway; he considered the
reporter an impertinent jackass
and asked for no further notoriety.
The communication we refer to
was not out of the usual order of
affairs. A great many similar doc
uments are placed on the editors
table from time TO time. hey
came from respectable men too
good fellows who ought to know
better.
There are a great many people
in Honolulu and many other cities,
who cannot realize that it is impos-
sible for the newspapermen of the
city to take the time to go be-
fore a justice of the peace and
swear that each and every item
they use is correct, and every
person whose name is men
toned has given his or her con-
sent to condescend to have his or
her name appear in bold black ink
in newspaper. Even easy going

IT is indeed unfortunate that an
other conspiracy story must be
carried to the States by the outgo'
ing steamer. The injury done by
these, to US, incidental happenings
that hardly cause a ripple in the
business community, is almost
equal to a full fedged revolt in its
effect upon our business interests
abroad. The imaginative mind
has full scope and it is always
easier to spread false impression;
the tendency of human nature is to
listen to the exaggeration in pre-
ference to plain facts. Although
we have conspirators we also know
how to take care of them. The
men now in prison were appre-
hended a short time after their
arrival. The police department is
on the alert, the public has i'm
plicit confidence in the strength OF
the government and the peace and
quiet usual in Hawaii reigns
supreme.

A Significant Departure.

With the departure Of another year
when a review is made of the condit-
ion of affairs, it is only right that
some thought be given to the physical
body which enables everyone to bat
tie with life's problem and figure for
themselves the profit or loss on the
trial balance sheet. Though the bank
account may be large and each ones
material gain be great, it would not
be surprising il it suddenly dawns
upon many that good health has been
greatly Impoverished by the low
condition of the blood 1t is in this
state that the Tactic acid in the vital
fluid attacks the ferrous tissues, par
ticulsrly the joints, making known
the local Manifestations OF rheums-
tism. Thousands Of people have
found in Hoods Sarsspsrilla the
great blood purifier, positive and
permanent cure for rheumatism.

THE death of Judge Blckerton
removes a very well known face
from among our midst. He was
one of the most whole hearted and
genial of our citizens. Apart from
his legal standing he was endeared
to many by his kindly manners
and his generosity. Landing on
these shores a stranger and having
to fight his way upward, he never
forgot his early days and was al
ways kindly and helpful to any
young man who had his way to
work in the world. Many man
today remembers the word spoken
in season, and the helping hand of
the dead Judge. His funeral, which
was postponed yesterday on &C
count of the inclement weather,
will be attended by many true
mourners who had no dealings
with the Judge in his official capa-
CITY.

Honolulu isn't slow enough for
this method, and besides, our
friends who complain like to read
about other people and would raise
sad hue and cry if this event or
that function which came under
his attention did not appear in
print. In other words the defini-
ton of good newspaper in the
minds of many people is, GA me-
dunn that tells everything about
everybody, but never speaks of me
except when 1 say So" Such
people really ought to establish a
newspaper colony of their own,
and we venture the assertion that
the colony would break up in a
row before the end of three weeks.
One time a man was passing
through one of the smaller
cities of the world and he
was told by friend, "This
is small city, and you must ex-
pect small people" This is small
town and the people take consider
able interest in small affairs, even
to the extent of taking note of those
who go from one district of the ISL
ands to another. The newspapers tell
thes tory of the day and, naturally
enough, there are some disgruntled
ones among those who figure in the
narrative. And there always will
be the disgruntled ones so long as
the papers continue to tell the story
honestly and with absolute impair
TALLY. When the people buy
papers to learn what is going on it
is useless for our friends to write
us that it is nobody's business what
they do.

THE Atchison Globe announces
that Miss Mary Snodgrass, who
has been a cheerful and tireless
chaperon for her young friends for
the past five years, has given
notice that she will no longer, I'M
der any circumstances, be chap
eron again. She has ruined her
health by staying out nights when
she should have been in bed, has
never received any pay and has
been compelled to give more we'd
ding presents than any one else in
town. In addition, parents abused
her for staying at parties so late,
and her charges called her crank
for going home so early. Those
who obtained partners for life
while under her care abuse her for
their disappointments, and those
who are still single and growing
old talk of the men they might
have had if it had not been for her
mean" interference. For five years
Miss Snodgrass has been constant
ly in society, but she has led a dogs
life, and her resolution to leave it
forever is a good one. If all the
women who are cailed>to act in the
same capacity would follow Miss
Mary's example society would not
suffer.

The official visit of Mr.. Joseph
Marsden to Hamakua is timely.
Our forests need looking after. The
success that has attended the Gov
eminent experiment on the hills
back of the Lunalilo Home and
Oahu College should encourage
private enterprise in the same
direction. On the Kukuihaele
estate, Hamakua, considerable care
has been bestowed on the forest
land with good results, and some
good work in the same direction
has been done at Lihue, Kauai.
Owners of property should take a
thorough interest in improving
their forest lands. All over Europe
and in India the greatest care is
now taken of the forests, and large
sums of both public and private
money are expended for the pur-
pose of improving and extending
them. We have no doubt that the
visit of Mr.. Marsden to Hsmakua
will result in an interesting report
which will be of value to other
landholders besides those of the
district visited.
