A GOOD THING TO KILL.

1t is now about year since the
Dangerous Persons act first
made its appearance. The time
was inopportune. The measure
was swept aside by wave OF
mingled derision and indignation.
There are still now OH file couple
of petitions against it. The act
first reappears in its original form.
Then the title is changed and the
text somewhat modified. But it
doesn't suit the people yet. They
are suspicious of it in any shape or
guise. 1t is proposed to soften it
still further this evening and to
make a law of it. There is no
sense or use i'll getting excited on
the subject. Doubtless there is
merit in the idea. But the ready
objections to it are sufficient to de-
feat almost any piece of legislation.
In the first place no one seems to
know inst what the limits of its
operation are. Some say that it is
capable of supplanting all other
laws for the protection OF
society. Others maintain that it
is simply a reserve battery to be
used on occasion. Two or three
things about it should be apparent
to all: 1t will please immensely the
"other fellow" locally. He can
print it in his paper every day as a
sample of the liberal legislation OF
the Republic. He can say enough
about it in four lines to require a
column of explanation. And how
some clever man i'll the Senate or
House at Washington could lam
poon such a law! And how some
stump speaker in Hawaii could
ridicule it and defy it and taunt the
supporters of the Republic with the
specious charge that the Govern
ment was afraid of itself
Afraid of the men behinc
it and afraid of a little opposition
OF course the objection that any
special law may be abused in it:
use holds good in the instance.
1t would be very good scheme
to kill this act and go after the
desired goal on an altogether
different tack.

The fad" if it may be so call
ed, OF wearing dresses of Ger
tain design will never become
popular Tor the reason that, as
rule, lady is very chary about
getting the same kind of cloth
that her neighbor wears. AS an
illustration it is only necessary
to cite the case of a woman OF
fashion in Chicago whose dresses
were frequently copied, and very
much to her disgust. On one
occasion when giving an order
for a riding habit she remarked
to her dressmaker 81 want some
thing that will not be copied by
every woman who sees it, sup
pose you make the buttons of
five dollar gold pieces And
her scheme worked. The ladies
of Honolulu are not different in
this respect from those of Chi
cago. If few of them wish to
wear stripes let those who object
wear stars and there will be a
combination that even the Gov
eminent would not object to.
With men it is different! Jones
wears the same style hat that
Brown does and there's no ieal-
ousy about it. Aud if Brown
manages plantation and finds
an implement that suits his pur-
pose he tells Jones and he gets
one like it. Perhaps that is the
way with the Avery Implements
Mr.. Scott, manager of Wainaku
saw them and was satisfied with
them. Directly he began using
them the epidemic spread and
now all Hawaii has the disease
and were spreading it wherever
there is an opening. The follow.
ing testimonials show pretty
well the high opinion in which
these implements are held by the
writers:

The Fertilizer Distributor is a gooC
