Why in the name OF fortune is the
late Punahou row to be kept secret
1t would be far better for the trus-
tees to publish every scintilla relat-
ing to the recent trouble rather
than allow scandal mongers and
"rumorists" to draw on their i'm
agination and spread most ghastly
stories. The fact remains that there
has been trouble. That Mr.. Hatch
attended to Hosmer's case and Mr..
Kinney looked after the interest Of
the teachers. That the trustees sit
ting as grand inquisition found in
favor of Hosmer, and that six teach
ers of high standing resigned. That
a number OF children have been
taken away from the school within
tho last six months and that several
more will leave and MT return after
the vacation. For all this there

II the secrecy OF the 6rst meeting
OF the Council OF State was caused
by the object OF the administration
to grant a general pardon, we'll and
good. But we fear the secrecy. If
it was caused because the members
wanted secretly to keep personal
enemies aud men they have a grudge
against little longer in the prison.
The secrecy should be and is con-

TOPICS OF The DAY.

The Evening Bulletin is authority
for the statements "that one man
and one set OF men at the head of
affairs are Indispensable to the
stability and the good government
of the country and "a legislature
that exists only to register the de-
crees OF the executive is no legisla-
ture at ALL" How this accords with
affairs as at present conducted in
Honolulu remains to be seen. The
INDEPENDENT doesn't hint thugs; it
says them.

Timely Topics.
Nme "a, 1895.

At last Hawaii will become
a true Paradise on the earth,
an Eld'rado that even the
most imaginative dreamer
could hardly picture. Be-
tween the Lab " Commission
and Mr. Dole s Land Act every
happiness and prosperity will
be secured forever. The first
tells us how to become rich by
growing coffee and cabbage
and the last gives us the neces-
sary lands on which to raise
the said coffee and cabbage.
The Bureau of A Agriculture
invents and imports toads and
bugs and all possible blight
destroyers aud the day is
near when the proverbial small
farmer only needs to take his
basket and go out in the forest
and field and fill it with berries
and fragrant sauerkraut.
But how is he going! On
foot? That will be much too
warm on horse back? Too
inconveinent; he can't lie his
horse to cabbage head. How
thea, will be asked.
On a Monarch, of course.
That is why we imported
that celebrated bicycle which
has already become world-re-
nouned and the popularity of
which is assured here as else
VIII re. We have only a f, W left
of the lot that we +, ceived by
the " Andrew Welch.' An
order for more Monarchs has
gone forward and we will soon
be ready t. supply the 20, 600
small armers who will be in
duced to come he,e by the
Labor Commission, with the
indispensable bicycle We
have them in two grades, one
we offer at 800. Itis a strong
serviceable wheel and we qua
rantee that it will give salts
faction to anyone who tries it.
The other grade which we
have in stock is without COM
parison the best bicycle ever
imported here. We sell it at
sos. This wheelisperfect 1t
is now PREFER d in the States
to any other wheel and laoies
and gentlemen are unanimous
in their praise of this high
class bicycle. We could write
columns in describing the
beauty and qualities of Mon
arch, but we prefer to ak you
to -tep into our store without
delay and make a personal
inspection. Persons who have
not yet straddled the 6n de
steele horse and who desire to
learn how to ride shou d be-
gin their experience on a
Monarch. The Monarch sim
ply teaches them to ride and
it is nearly impossible to take
a tumble when once seated ON
the Monsrchial back and
speeding towards Waikiki.
Make an inspection at once
as our stock will run out and
then will you have to wait for
the arrival of our next in

PuNAHoU PLAGIARISM

1t has pleased Prof. f. A. Hosmer
OF Oahu College to furnish to The
Time portrait and autobiography,
about which we have little to say
beyond questioning the good taste
of such contributions while under
the fire OF an examination as to
serious charges preferred against
him by the faculty of the college.
However, this is question OF taste
which the public may decide. We
propose to take up another matter
which concerns question of
morals. At the College it is noto-
rious that the Professor had favor
ite pupil, one over whom he watched
with parental care, and in the exer-
else Of parental pride the Professor
has had the temerity to cause to be
published an address delivered by
the favored pupil at the graduating
exercises of the College. The sub
ject OF the add ess was "Nydia the
Blind Girl" We are told that this
subject is favorite with the pupil,
and that the whole soul of the
pupil was put into the essay. This
information could only come from
the trusted college guardian of the
pupil. The remarkable fact is that
not only the "whole soup of the
pupil was put into the essay, but
that a considerable part of the soul
of Bulwer Lytton was also incor
porated in the address. The pupil
says: "What means that solid and
impenetrable mass of clouds in the
heavens; and that grinding and
kissing noise as Of escaping gases in
the distance2
Bulwer Lytton says: The cloud
Il had now settled into a
solid and impenetrable mass. =
You heard the grinding and
Kissing murmur of the escaping
gases through the chasms of the
Distant Mountain.
The pupil says: Suddenly a flash
of lightning reveals to the terrified
beholders a lurid and intolerable
crimson, gushing forth through
the columns of smoke and then
dying into sickly paleness.
Bulwer Lytton says: Il Now
Of lurid and intolerable crimson
gushing forth through the columns OF
smoke, far and wide, and then sud-
denly dying into a sickly paleness,
like the ghost of their own life.
The pupil says: A sudden rush
of hundreds, in their path towards
the sea, separate her from her com
panions. In vain she endsavors to
regain them. in vain she raises that
plaintive cry SO peculiar to the
blind.
Bulwer Lytton says: Suddenly a
rush of hundreds, in their path to
the sea, swept by them. Y Il
Meanwhile Lydia had in vain en-;
deavored to regain them In vair
she raised the plaintive cry so pecu,
liar to the blind"
In fact the so-called address is q
literary theft of the most unblush
ing kind. What shall be said of 4
teacher who would be a party to
such a theft?

And now we are to have a high

baronial residence OF @. r. Bishop.
What is the matter with Punahou
and the Kamehameha Schools2 Is
it possible that the Board of Educa-
tion wants to withdraw its subsidy
from Punahou and find occupation
and salaries for the teachers who
withdrew from Mr.. Hosmer's insti-
tute? 1t will be interesting to know
what the object Of the proposed
high school is to be. Evidently
Punahou is getting too "high"' for

The great trouble with the Land

many points. 1t mixes up things
far too much. 1t also contains too

simple titles should not contain the
provisions allowing the Government
to re enter on the premises at any
