POSTAL MATTERS.

Our postoffice is a credit to the
country. With the growth of the
country it has steadily improved.
In the past it has had able admin
istrators, but none more able than
the present chief, Mr.. J. NJ. Dat.
He has done much to improve the
inter-island postal system, and to
him are due reforms in the carry
ing of the overland mails, which
have been a great boon TO the resi-
dents on the other islands. Mr..
Dat has systematized the methods
Of transportation and has improved
the personnel of the distributive
force. He keeps we'll up with the
details of the Postal Union, and,
indeed, Oh that matter is better
posted than the officials of the San
Francisco postofice. Moreover,
the office here is not at a stand
still, but is ever trying to improve.
The time may come when we shall
have regular city delivery. We
have regular collection from the
local boxes, which, tried once before
under the regime of Mr.. Whitney,
has become now an assured success
and proves a great convenience.
OF complaints there will always
be crop, but both here and else
where the fault frequently lies with
the sender of the letter. Two or
three instances have recently come
up when complaint has been
made as to the miscarriage OF
letters. Investigation has shown
that they have been given rot to
even the pursers of steamers, but
to some irresponsible parties who
have been careless about posting
them. It must be said for the pur-
sers of our island steamers and
those of the foreign steamers touch
ing here, that they are very care
full about letters and are very oblig-
ing in taking charge of them.
But even they are not responsible
for losses of letters or their direct
delivery. If people lose letters
entrusted tn others than the nOstal |
authorities they have no reason to
complain of those authorities. The
safe way of transmitting letters is
to put them in the postoffice and
then the postal authorities are
responsible and if things go wrong
they can be properly hauled over
the Goals for dereliction of duty.

THE WAILUKU ACCIDENT.

The responsibility for the acct
dent at Wailuku, which cost an
Hawaiian his life, will probably
never be satisfactorily settled. But
a lesson has been given, and it is one
that the Legislature may we'll at
tend to. The facts are these. A
locomotive was pushing" not
dragging, fifteen heavily-laden cars
along the track. There was
quite a sharp curve with an
up grade. In order to push "
these cars up, evidently an extra
power had to be used. If the speed
used was too great, the train was
liable to Jump the track at the
curve. If the road bed or rails
were not in q satisfactory condi-
ton, the train was liable to jump
the track. Yet, in order to get round
the curve on an up grade with such
heavy weight in front it was neces-
sary to 90 at good speed. The
engine did jump the track and the
fireman was killed. When Mr..
Kluegel, an expert on such mat
tiers, went to the scene of the
accident, the track had been relaid
and it was impossible for him to
Judge of the state Of the road be-
fore the accident. He reports,
however, that the whole track is
no better and no worse than many
similar plantation roads. 1t is
further stated that the account OF
the engineer given Immediately
after the accident differed from
that given at the inquest.
Now for the lesson. 1t seems
pretty patent that there should be
supervision over plantation lines
other than by the managers of those
ventures. No one can say that the
manager of the Waikiki plantation
is directly responsible for the death
of the fireman, but there will al
ways rest doubt in the minds of
nlany whether the line was in
proper condition at that spot and,
further, whether the engine was
not asked to do too much. With
proper supervisors appointed, free
from the influence of those inter-
ested in mere gain, these things
can be properly regulated, and the
would be able to prop
erly adjust the blame. We trust
that the lesson may be needed.

7 THE need of a theatre in such a
town as thib is constantly being
put before us There are several sug-
ges:ions With regard 10 such pro-
iect. Why there should not be
assistance given by the towns
people to the present owners of the
site does not seem clear. A very
large section of the town is thor
oughly in accord as to the desira-
bility-indeed, the positive neces-
sity-of such a building, and this
section contains men of wealth who
certainly should be ready to give
literally toward the undertaking,
The stage, properly conducted, is a
wonderful educator. Some OF the
Hottest sentiments, some Of the
most sympathetic ideas are there
portrayed to the life. Mr.. Irwin is
expected back in a few days, and
we understand that the project will
then be taken UP in full force; One
plan, recently suggested, is to reverse
the former order of things and to
have the seats upon movable,
sloping platform, SO that the. build
ing might he readily cleared for
banquet hall or ball room. Some
thing of this kind was in use at the
ola Gallery of Illustration III Lon
don when German Reed and John
Parry used to perform over quar-
ter of a century ago, and where
more recently Corney Grain proved
so admirable a successor. The
method of boarding over the par
ouet did not prove successful one.
The old theatre, though excellent
for stage purposes, was not popular
for other forms of entertainment.
This should be. remembered in
erecting the new building. But the
first requisite is cash. /

STEADY GRIND--"I have
! learned from observation"
says Chauncey DepeW, that
three things surely happen
to a man who works with
out relaxation. In the first
place he becomes nervous,
| irritable and hard to get
along with. In the SECOND
place the grade of his work
falls off, and he is liable to
err in his judgment. In the
third place he dies sud-
denly.' These remarks of
the famous after dinner
speaker we consider not
only decided applicable in
the sense in which they are
intended, but in the way Of
"a great many of the manu-
faCturerS that are constantly
placing inferior goods on the
market and claiming them as
superior to the product Of
older and better. known
houses. This is especially
true of cutlery. There are
houses who. place this class
of goods on the market that
are made up for show and
sale only, but whose wear
is warranted only until they.
have been once secured.
This is not the case with the
goods of well known and
established houses whose
reputation depends upon the
wear of goods.
They pride themselves on
what they make being made
of the best material that
money and experience can
turn out. The John Russell
Cutlery Company have al
reputation that is envied by
many and equalled by few.

Bribery at Annapolis,

Nothing was said by the press about lobby.
ing at Annapolis during the recent session of
the Legislature. All such things were sup.
pressed. Since adjournment, however, some
little has become known, and the reading
clerk of the House of Delegates, Charles l..
Wilson, has been accused By the Baltimore
News of crooked work. This would not have
been brought out, perhaps, except that the
Baltimore city council elected him one Of the
law officers of the city.
1t is known that a bill that had passed the
Senate was hung up in the House several
weeks It was local bill and the delegates
from the county were favorable to it, but it
was not reached until the last day Of the SEES
sion, and not then until the party interested
had paid some one 5000 to look after it,
On Monday Governor Lowndes granted ii
hearing to Adam L. Hitchins, of Allegany

counsel. Mr.. Hitchins protested against the
signing of the bill known as the store mining
bill, which prohibits mining companies from
engaging in merchandising. After Mr.. Hitch
ms aud his counsel had been admitted in the
Governors presence the Governor said
''YouR SIDE of the case, gentlemen, has been

you both as long if not longer than any man
here present, and | don't think that either of
you we're connected with this attempt, but it
is evident to my mind that the culprit is some
where. The Governor explained that the
chief engrossing clerk on the House side had
told him that one Of the deputy clerks had
been approached by an individual who offered
him $500 to get him the bill. The clerk de-
clined to render the required services unless
he should be paid an additional $50. The
party desiring the bill stated that he would
substitute bogus bill for the original. The
agreement was made, the bogus bill was
handed to the deputy clerk, who returned to
the room for the purpose of bringing out the
original and delivering it TO the party paying
for il. Instead of bringing the original he re-
turned the bogus bill and the Original was sent
to the Governor for his consideration. The
$3.50 was paid and the party considered it

Mr.. james A. Gary is "a back number in
the Republican party in Maryland. He has
for years bossed the party and named the del
egates to the national convention, as well as
served as a member of the national committee.
Mr. Wellington, pulled up by the coneeit that
he carried Maryland for the Republicans last
fall, assumed to be boss, and the little
county bosses, in fear and trembling, fell in
line and acknowledged his supremacy. Even
Mr.. Gary fears to antagonize him, and is talk
ing of declining to go as delegate at-large to
the st. Louis convention and serving longer
on the national committee. ''Precarious
health is the reason assigned, but the real
fact is, he does not know whether Wellington
will permit him, and he does not want to be
kicked out of leadership by such mushroom
as Wellington.
Gary will not be permitted to remain ON the
national committee, but if he behaves himself
and will agree to be subservient to Wellington,
the Duke may allow him to be delegate to
ST Louis No one who will not he subser-
silent to Wellington will go 10 the Republican
national convention from Maryland. Gary,
