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 ho-
tells. For picnics, bathing parties
and outings the best accommodation
can be secured by giving notice to
the manager.

that he ought to have the lions
share as he had put in his spare
time-lots of tin sitting in the
office of the commission and
smoking his pipe--and as another
member suggested, chewing the

The other members were in favor
Of an equal division of the spoils.
They refused to entertain Mr..
Severance's claim for a monopoly

do the clerical work. Nobody had
asked or authorized Mr. Severance
to devote his "spare" time in the
Office and his contributing Of infor-
nation was never supposed to have
to be considered as piece of cash
goods.
The commission finally decided
to divide the $1,000 equally, and SO
each member will get 5000. Sever
ance will shake the dust of this
country from off his feet and leave.
But he will only take his 5000 with
him. The purses due Murray, EN-
meluth, Vivas and Armstrong will
stay in their hands and not be open
for division behind the door.

Whenever the Advertiser gets a
man out of the country, and safely
off on steamer which cannot i'm
mediately return, and so bring the
major his foot = into personal
contact with the editorial seat
then that honorable journal pro.
ceeds to vilify him. From Chester
Doyle to j. N. Bickal. the record is
unbroken. Because the latter
chooses to leave the country with "a
small valise, rusty overcoat, dilspi-
dated umbrella, and a walking stick"
the Advertiser-as he is not here to
defend himself-must ego" for him.
(When the Advertiser man goes it
will be interesting to have a list Of
his baggage.) Yet few days ago
the Advertiser was printing Bickal's
letters and slobbering over him.
We have never praised or put any
faith in Bickal. But we don't wait

him. -r0

Honolulu, July ss, 1895.

1t cannot be denied that the
war cloud which hangs over the
world at present is getting darker
and darker. 1t is a historical
fact that the end of each CEN
tury has always been fraught
with bloodshed and strife, in
ternally as well as externally.
The great powers of Europe to-
day are making and unmaking
alliances of all kinds. The fact
is that diplomacy to-day is using
every means to postpone the day
when the crash must come and
gain time for the different coun-
tries to prepare themselves for
the gigantic struggle which will
and must take place before the
present generation dates its let
ters in the year 1900. Turkey
is threatened from all sides. The
Russian bear is extending his
claws and licking his blood
thirsty tongue towards the East
and South in anticipation of
gain. The passive and cold
brother nations who inhabit the
Scandinavian peninsula are
now glaring ferociously ready to
spring at each others throats.
Germany, under its impetuous,
indiscreet imperial master, is
drifting into the deceptive mael-
strom of conquest, and war, in
which all past experience, all
knowledge gained through the
horrors of war are forgotten, and
where only false sentiment and
sham patriotism are ruling.
And while the giants get
ready for the great war their
leaders have realized one thing,
and that is, that no army will
have show, no militia chance,
except provided with the indis-
pensable bicycle. And no Won
der that the monarchial coun-
tries of Europe prefer the "Mon-
arch" to any other kind, and
supply their wheeling cavalry"
with that favorite brand.
We have watched proceedings
in the great countries with a
great deal of care, and we have
secured the sole agency for Ha-
waii of the Monarch Cycle. We
have realized that, not alone a
large stock is necessary, but that
workshop, in which all needed
repairs can be done is in the in
terest of our patrons, and we have
established one above our stores
on Fort street. This "bicycle
infirmary" will attend to any
sickness" which the wheel
may meet through accident or
lack of care. Our prices are far
below veterinary figures. We
fix the Monarchs sold by us at
cost price if ever they should
need it. We have everything
on hand and have secured the
services of a most experienced
bicycle man, whose work we
guarantee.
AS the bicycle is not only of
advantage in war but love, we
wish to call the attention of the
young boys and girls who have
to spend their vacations in Ho-
nolulu, that we have wheels Just
suitable for them. If daddy !
can't send them to the country
for trip-or buy them a bow
wow-let them ask him for a
Monarch. 1t will give more
pleasure and last much longer
than even a volcano trip.

Senator Charles Motley of Hilo
has resigned his seat in the Senate
on account of ill-health. We regret
the fact. The retiring Senator is
one of tho honestest and straightest
men who have ever held Legislative
position on the Hawaiian Islands.
He has always voted for what he
believed to be right, irrespective of
the wishes or influence of money or
place. His influence has always
been wholesome and used for good.
That he may speedily recover his
past health and strength is the
hearty wish of The INDEPENDENT and
every other well.wisher of honest
government.

The Advertiser does not desire
any comparison between the present
"abortive" (but honesty opium sup
preston and the genuine work done
by Custom House officers under the
monarchy. The official organ claims
that such a comparison would be
odious because there we're not 80

ports and learn that from 1886 to
1893 the annual shipping list exceeds

has been nearly doubled and the

Minister Hatch this morning in
bidding godspeed to the retiring

bill. He admitted that measure was
not all it ought to be (and it amt,
by long shot). Yet in the regular
session any amendments and altera-
tions needed could be attended to
(and it's unconstitutionality reme-
