to three big campfires and even then
there were thousands who devoted
themselves to the minor side shows of
all sorts that always accompany such

being the beautiful decoration of the

had arranged for the veterans. was
primarily in honor of COMMANDMENTS.

DIR. Winslow Anderson, now visiting

was examining physician for Jim Cor

every match he had. DR.. Anderson
also was, short time ago, guilty of

has regular place of business and
pays taxes on considerable property,
If necessary we could have given
heavy bonds to do the work accord
IN to contract. 1t looks as though the
kamaainas are not in it any more
when strangers are given the prefer
ence. Perhaps the Minister was afraid
to give the contract to a company
composed principally of Cinnamon. In
view of the fact that the Chinese have
done so much to develop the country
and that they pay large proportion
(about one-third) of the taxes and
duties collected by the Government, it
seems to us that they are entitled to
fair play. The Board of Health did
not hesitate to award the poi contract
to Cinnamon when their bid was the
lowest. Our company asks no favors,
for we are ready to compete on our
merits. We can do good work at the
very lowest rates and guarantee salts

wanted for Government work. the

CoXswain of the Oahu Prison Crew

July Sth, 1896.

The following letter, addressed by
to the Rowing Association, embodies
an interesting contribution to the
whale boat race dispute:
Il see from this mornings issue of
the Daily Advertiser formal written
protest has been made by Capt. Nc
Auley of the whale boat Pilot No. .,
as to the decision of the judges re-
garding the foul made alongside the
steamer w. G. Hall, insinuating foul
was committed by the prison crew and
stating that the prison crew steered
into his course.
His statement that we steered in
to his course is false. Our course was
straight one from the starting point
within a few feet of the judge at the
| buoy to the light house buoy. and
at the time the foul was made off the
steamer Hall there was fully twenty
feet between the range of our oars
and his.
Just after Capt. McAuley broke
away from the contact with the mar
shafs boat he steered down into my
course before being full boat length
in the lead and / called upon him to
get out of my water, at the same time
steering out of my course to keep
clear of the dead water from his oars.
He took the lead as we neared the
light house buoy and had no further
cause to speak to him.
