himself died few days after as
Stunning the position of Governor
of his native province in 1873.
On your return you asked leave
of absence to 60 to New York TO
promote an extension of the line
to England and spoke confidently
OF being able to extend it across
the Atlantic and connect Europe
with America. Up to this time l
never heard the idea suggested and
though reading the English and
American papers never saw any
allusion to the practicability of
such an enterprise. As no capt.
tai could be got in Halifax you
naturally sought in London and
New York for cooperation and
assistance. L do not of course
know what took place abroad, but
of this L have no doubt, that until
you went to New York nobody
had suggested or taken any step
towards promoting an Atlantic
telegraph"
Mr.. Howe concludes thus: at
ought not to be forgotten that the
very line across Newfoundland
now used by the Anglo American
Company was originally, at great
pecuniary sacrifice and risk of
health, explored by you and con,
structed by yourself as chief en-
gineer of the New York, New
foundland and London Telegraph
Company"
The financial journal from
which the foregoing extracts are
taken says: From the above it
is manifest that Mr.. G. W. Field
and his associates could not have
become interested in Mr.. Gis-
borne's enterprise before the
spring of 1854. This sustains us
in our recent view that the pre-
tension of Mr.. Q. W. Field to be
the originator of the great project
is simply preposterous."
Mr.. Gisborne's memory will de-
serve to be honored in connection
with the Pacific cable now being
promoted under British auspices,
for he was the author of that idea
as we'll as of the Atlantic cable
project. Seventeen or eighteen
years ago Mr.. Osborne, when on
his way to Ottawa to take the office
of Superintendent of Government
Telegraphs, called upon the pres
ent writer in an Eastern news
paper Office to thank him for
backing up his claim as the
pioneer in ocean telegraphy, from
data furnished in the editorial
columns of the Washington Re-
publican. To show his apprecia-
ton of the slight service Mr.. Gis-
borne divulged scheme that he
had conceived for cable across
the Pacific, which was to form
part Of telegraphic line around
the world under British control.
The information was not to be
published, however, until some
official hint emanated from gov
eminent quarters. When the
time shortly afterward came the
details impaired by Mr.. Osborne
in the manner stated made an in
teresting as well as exclusive
article for the Montreal Witness
which was copied by the leading
New York journals. Mr.. Gis.
borne had said that when his
Pacific cable scheme was broach-
ed to Sir Charles Upper, that
veteran statesman exclaimed that
il was the grandest imperial idea

THE WATER SUPPLY.

Honolulu bids fair soon to have
an abundant supply of pure water.
There has been a prodigious waste
of money extending over a great
many years in devising means for
bringing about such happy con-
summation. The plans begotten
OF expensive expert examinations
and surveys adopted by one ad
ministration would be discarded
by the next, and SO on. Some of
these plans were undoubtedly
good and could have been put into
effect without great further ex-
pense. The present Minister of
the Interior, when water famine
impcnded shortly after he took
Office, adopted heroic measures to
prevent such calamity then
and for many years to come. His
scheme was to tap the artesian
basin or basins underlying the
city plot and it took but few
months to make the scheme a
success. A shapely pumping
station, well equipped with mo
dern machinery, is a creditable
monument to Minister Kings de-
cision OF character in an emergen-
cy. The community has the
blessing of copious outpouring
of pure water, in addition to the
old supply of mountain water by
gravitation, which can have con-
stsnt instead of variable purity en-
sured by the adoption of
method of filtration.
The Government should
next take into consideration the
question of a reduction in water
rates, or at least graduated scale
with some account of the quanti-
ty used by each ratepayer. At
present the occupant of confined
tenement drawing only water for
bare household purposes has to
pay as much as the owner or ten
ant of dwelling having an ex-
tensive lawn that absorbs whole
rivers every day of the year ex-
cepting in seasons of heavy
showers.
