pital. There is no doubt that
definite plan for securing such
boon to humanity here would re-
ceive more general and liberal
support from the public of all
nationalities than any other pro-
ject that might be named could
enlist. In much larger cities
abroad the free hospitals are
materially aided by the systematic
circulation of subscriptions among
employers and employed of in
dustrial and mercantile establish
ments. Farmers of moderate
wages cheerfully subscribe some
thing out of their pay when
the list comes round, knowing
that they are helping to support
an institution where, if they un-
fortunately become sick or in
iured, they will have soft pillows
for their heads, gentle nurses to
watch over them, and the most
skilful treatment by eminent
members of the medical faculty.
1t will be a shame for the Repub-
lie if it long delay providing for
foreigners the counterpart of what
the monarchy provided for the
natives in this matter of hospital
accommodation. Here is chance
for some of our wealthy residents
to perpetuate their names more
durably than can be done on brass
or marble. Who will initiate the
grand movement?

Rice is second in the staples of
Hawaii, but it has ceased, for the
present at least, to be profitable
enough for marketing. 1t is hard
to see how legislation can help the
rice industry, suffering as it is
simply from the law of supply and
demand. Enterprise may discov-
er rev markets, but as yet they are
invisible.

As both houses of the Legisla-
ture-Nobles and Representatives
sat and voted together in the
year named, also in 1892, the Adj
vertiser is incomprehensible when
it talks about 1.-The registration bill
which passed the lower house of
the Legislature of 1890 and was
mysteriously lost before reaching
the upper house" Besides, G. w.
Ashford, who is represented by
the same paper as opposing the
bill at that session, was only a
member of the Legislature ex
officio as Attorney General the
first half of the session. Was it not
in the latter part of the session of
1892 that the bill in question went
missing2 twas ordered engrossed
and never saw the light again.
Mr.. Ashford was, however, a
strong opponent of the measure.
Then Mr.. Marsden was not the
father of the proposition, but Mr..
Glade of the firm of HI. Hackfeld
& Co., who advocated it at con-
ference between the planters and a
workingmen's anti-Asiatic COM
mittee SIX or seven years ago.

NO FREE HOSPITAL.

Attention is called by the Hilo
Tribune to the lack of a hospital
in that town, where the "sick and
unfortunate" might "go and stay
free of cost and expense, and re-
ceive the treatment that is accord
cd the unfortunate in civilized
communities. At the conclusion
of its remarks the Tribune says:
'Let us have hospital, and that,
too, right away. If the Govern
ment cannot spare the money
when it has plenty to spend on
band in Honolulu, on its beach
road, on its many officers retained
for show, then let us build it by
private subscriptions" Our con-
temporary does not strengthen its
very laudable plea by harping on
the old growl against Honolulu.
As for the band, every Govern
ment in the world, probably, pays
for sound, as well as show, in
various forms. The beach road
will more than repay the outlay
on it, there is little doubt, from
the enhanced value of taxable
property along its route.
One of the best authorities on real
estate, who died some years ago,
urged upon the writer the advo-
cacy of that very road as a most
desirable and profitable public
Improvement. All these things
for identifying the capital OF the
country, and making it agreeable
for either residence or sojourn, ARE
far from being for the exclusive
enjoyment and benefit of the peo-
pie of Honolulu. Our friends of
the country districts would be
among the first to complain, when
they came up to the city for bust
ness, health or pleasure, if there
was no music to beguile their rest
ing hours or good roads on which
to drive for air and scenery. These
complainings remind one of the
fable about the mutiny OF the
other members of the body against
the stomach. This paper has al
WAYS been and ever will be found
ready to advocate the claims OF
the country for due share OF the
public revenues for public i'm
provements. And really we think
that Hilo is not being badly
neglected, having been aided by
outright appropriations, subsidies
and franchises in obtaining many
modern city conveniences. twill
in all likelihood have both its Off
cially discovered needs and its
opportunities relating to others
substantially regarded at the
coming session of the Legislature.
But to return to the main ques-
ton. This paper cordially agrees
with its Hilo contemporary in
ventilating the discredit of the
country's lack of free hospitals
Perhaps the editor of the Tribune
being a comparative stranger, is
not aware that Honolulu, the much
envied capital, is without free
hospital accommodation and treat,
ment, excepting for native Hawai-
iars, notwithstanding that the pub
lie contributes largely to the sup
port of the Queens Hospital. We
have often advocated the establish,
ment of a free hospital or the
making of arrangements whereby
the poor and afflicted of any ma.
tionality may otherwise receive
treatment without money and
without price at the Queens Hos.

SUPERIORITY OF THE
TRIBUNE WHEELS.
.ON THE

The Scientific American,
which everyone acknowledges
as the leading scientific paper
in the United States, devotes
nearly a page of its issue of
January 4th to the considera-
ton of bicycles. 1t selected
the Tribune as the highest
type of the best American
wheel made today. 1t says:
within the past three years,
the American bicycle industry
has grown up to dimensions
which fairly entitle it to be
considered representative Of the
country and Of the day. Every
day sees hundreds of wheels
Of high and low grade made in
the factories of this country for
the American and foreign mar
ket. Three years ago the
English bicycle was consider
ed by many the best wheel,
and the poSSeSSor of such was
apt to consider himself better
equipped than his friend who
rode one of American manu-
facture. Now, all is changed.
A visitor to England or to the
Continent, if a cycling enthu-
siast, cannot fail to be impress
ed by the superiority of Amer
lean wheels as contrasted with
the foreign ones, and no wheel
man really AL fait in his sub
ject would dream of buying
his wheel abroad, so superior
is the American make. The
industry has brought about an
enormous development in the
manufacture of special tools
and of parts of bicycles.
Many assumed bicycle man
ufacturers simply buy these
parts and do their own as
sembling. But for the produc-
ton of the absolutely high
grade American bicycle, a
factory is required which will
turn out practically all the
parts of the wheel manufac-
tured, for unless such is done
one concern cannot be answer
able for the perfection of the
whole machine.
We select as the representa-
tive of such a factory the works
of the Black Manufacturing
Company, of Erie, Pa. a COM
pany which produce the high
est grade of wheel and which
put it on the market purely on
its merits without the ADVENT
tious advertisement of paid
riders. The wheel made by
this company, the Tribune
Bicycle" embodieS the best
possible practice and is cores
pondingly free from structural
variations Of improved merit. "
Such praise from such a
high source should satisfy any
one of the superior merits Of
the Tribune wheels.
We have them in all varieties
of the 1896 patterns, in Tan
dems, Racers, Ladies or gents
wheels, and shall be happy to
show the 1896 Improvements
to intending purchasers.

Rev. Heber D. Ketcham preached on
Good Government, Sunday evening. He
had an immense audience, and gave
very eloquent and forceful discourse.
He contrasted American freedom with
despotlc servitude. He spoke of Gods
gift of freedom to man, upon which all
the merit of his attainments depended.
He pictured in vivid colors the preva-
lent evils which exist in spite of legal
enactments to the contrary. Among
them were drunkenness, Sabbath. break.
ing, the social evil, political bribery, etc.
He showed the pernicious effects of
these evils in National, State and munic.
ipal government. He said that those
accepting public Office should do 80 with
full sense of the responsibility, and
perform their official duties. regardless
of consequences. But, after all, tho great
fountain head and source of power was
the people. Officials, as rule, were
quick to detect the pulse of public sem
timent. They knew the difference be.

vocacy of reform, and the weak, captious
grumbling of those who merely wanted
to find fault, and would be the last to
afford moral support ifthe officers should
carry out their demands to the letter.
He spoke of the lack of decided moral
support on behalf of officials who en-.
force the law. The man who demands
a rigid enforcement of the law is in bus.
mess and fears that bold stand on the
subject may hurt him. Or, he is farm.
or and fears that his house or barn may
be burned. Or his own son or brother
or father may be caught in the meshes
of the merciless net, when all evil doers
are dragged in. Have we right to de.
mand of public officials an aggressive
policy in which we are unwilling to
afford them even our moral support
Officers are not always made Of the
stuff that courts political martyrdom.
What we need is a higher and more
constant level of moral sentiment, aud
courage that ever shrinks.

Some miscreants have neither the fear
of the law before their eyes or restrain
ing respect for those who administer the
law. Judge Cyrus Newby's home has
been marked by thieves, who raid it
frequently. A few nights ago they stole
all the milk and butter from refrigera-
tor on the porch. The Judge says il
they will bring back the butter p ate,
no questions will be asked. 1t was a
dearly priced keepsake. If the fellow
who stole it doesn't return it, he may
fall into the Judges hands some day,
and the most eloquent lawyer this side
of he heaven, couldn't save him from
life sentence. Better bring it back.
