bright upon our path, and the
evenings fell around us calm and
serene as the repose of our own
souls; when those we loved, loved
us, and the smiles that betrayed
our happiness were answered by
smiles that told of gladness in re-
turn. When the fields and the
woods, the mountains and the sky
were parts and pillars of that
great temple where we met to wor-
ship all that was sublime, eternal
and holy within the sacred con-
fines of happy home.
To have stood with quivering
lips and bated breath and witness
loved ones white and still-mer-
cifully unconscious--undergoing
operation after operation under
the guidance of the best medical
skill obtainable, and TO watch
with anxious solicitude the result
knowing in each instance that a
few hours might tell the sad story
of death or madness; and to carry
with one that awful consciousness
that the brave little sufferer was
exerting her master will-power to
prevent that doom every moment
of time during this most critical
period Of her life; and to bear
ones sorrows and mental anguish
in silence and unobtrusively,
when the frail tendrils of a gentle,
delicate nature are strained almost
to the verge of swapping.
Now, when the morning sun
rises without brightness upon our
path, and the evening comes with.
out repose--when we miss the
warm welcome of the eyes we
loved and the smile that was wont
to answer our own--it would seem
that common decorum and the
common instincts of humanity
should keep them silent out of re-
spect for the sacredness of home.
and that the verdict of the public
should insure to these leprous
otfsprings Of the by. way scum
and their associates the ignominy
of everlasting contempt.

wniian Islam DIS.

H. NJ. Whitney, who forty years
ago founded the Honolulu Adver-
tiser, is at present in Victoria
awaiting the sailing of the Mo
vera. Mr.. Whitney's residence
in the Paradise of the Pacific"
has given him an intimate ac-
quaintance with the political, COM
mercial and social life of the ISL
ands for nearly half a century,
during which time they passed
through, several political crises
and changed a native monarchical
into republican system of gov
eminent. AS to the present poll.
tical status of the Hawaiian Isl
ands, Mr.. Whitney is of opinion
that the new administration is for
the present firmly established and
that all fear of plotting or schem-
ing on the part of the ex Queen
for restoration is forever at an
end. That interesting personality
interesting principally because
she is the last of line of heredi-
tary rulers-is now living a quiet
life, free from any restraint, being
at liberty to go and come as she
pleases or to leave the Islands if
she desires to do so. She receives
no subsidy from the government,
but is the owner of property in
Honolulu which brings her an in
come of several thousand dollars
year, sufficient for the modest
requirements of dethroned royal
ty among people who still retain
their primitive tastes and simple
habits.
The census of the Islands, now
being taken, it is expected will
show a population of about 1867
600, of which the natives will
number from $4,000 to 10000. The
Hawaiians, like all Indian, or
native races, are rapidly diminish
ing in number, and the time can
now be calculated when they will
have disappeared ms distinctive
nationality. The japanese num-
Der $4,000 and are rapidly increas-
ing, there being no Legislative or
treaty impeachment in the way of
their coming to the Islands, as is
the case in respect to the Chinese.
Among the problems that the Re-
publican government will have to
solve before many years, the most
delicate will be the race question,
for it is evident that 10000 white
people, which includes a large
number of Portuguese, cannot rule
over twice that number of other
peoples, who are not accorded full
rights of citizenship, without more
or less serious disturbances pro-
voked by racial antagonisms.
Safety for the Islands lies in an
nexation either to the United
States or Great Britain, and until
a union of that kind is accomplish
ed the attempt to establish gov
eminent in the Hawaiian Islands
on the broad democratic princi-
pie of Shy the people aud for the
people"--must still be considered
an unsolved problem.--Vancouyer

MULVEY TAKES
STEWART TO TASK
SN0o9HHHANAOOO~ %999<

It leaked out yesterday that Coun-
cilmen Stewart and Mulvey had a spir-
tied wordy combat at the committee
meeting last Thursday evening Such
an occurrence was not entirely I'M
looked for by those acquainted with
the manner in which some of the mem
hers of the present council attend to
public business.
Stewart is chairman of the commit
tee on sanitary rules and quarantine.
one of the most important committees
Of the council. Mulvey is a member Of
the committee. How we'll Stewart has
attended to the duties as chairman
may be determined from the fact that
he has been present at five meetings
of the committee during the year now
almost gone The chairman of COM
mittee usually receives all the bids
and communications to be considered
and therefore when he is absent prac-
tically no business can be transacted.
This state Of affairs has exhausted
every bit of patience possessed by the
Lalance of the committee. Important
sanitary matters have been pending
for weeks end months, claims as old
as Stewards councilmanic career have
reDosed in the pigeon holes of the lat
ter's desk and things generally have
been neglected.
NIulvey is a man who believes an
alderman should look after the city's
business as well as his own, and when
Stewart surprised his fellow members
by attending the committee meetings
Thursday night. the opportunity pre-
scented itself and he was taken on the
toasting fork by the councilman from
the Fifth in 9 nler that left very
little to be desired A stenogra pher
was not present to take down all that
was said but the essence of it all was
pointed demand that Stewart resign
the craftsmanship of the committee.
When the members got together Stew
art began to search the muSty recesseS
of his desk and pulled out claims that
should have been passed upon months
ago, at least so thought Mulvey. The
chairman in his own characteristic way
sought to evade all responsibility and
this irritated Mulvey.
4 want it understood right now"
he began. addressing Stewart. That
either you or I will have to resign
from this committee. and l want it
further understood tha0 1 am not go
ing to resign"
This was a diplomatic declaration
bread enough for even Stewart to COM
prehend. and it almost paralyzed him.
''Well 1 don't Dronose to resign to
please you or any other member of this
committee" retorted Stewart, when he
recovered somewhat.
Then attend to your business as a
man and not let the city suffer. This
state of affairs has been going on for
a long while and it is high time you
are coming down to business
: \
And thus the colloquy went on for
some time, the final outcome being that
Stewart promised to improve in the flu
ture and with that the committee set
tied down to the transaction of bust
ness.
