The Kewalo Bicycle Track,
to be known as Cyclomere
Park, is at last a reality and
mot a dream" thanks to the
energy and enterprise of Mr..
Desky, and will be opened
with a grand meet next month,
and all the young men-and
perhaps also the lovely girls
will want to- try their luck on
it. In anticipation of increased
sales on bicycles we have
quietly laid In a good stock of
Tribune Bicycles than which
there is none better in the
market. The Tribune is now
recognized in the United States
as the best; it is the favorite
with all the society people and
business men all over the
Union, and our own American
Minister rides one. Recent
advices announce a cut in
prices of low grade, but the
strictly high grade wheels still
sell readily at the former list
price. We have made better
arrangements with the manu-
facturers, whereby we are en-
abled to sell the Tribune bicy-
cles at list price-$1OO, and
invite all intending purchasers
of wheels to come and inspect
our stock before going else
where. We have ladies' and
gentlemen'S road wheels, racers
and all models manufactured
by the celebrated Black Manu-
featuring Co. We also carry
the Columbus, Columbus
Juvenile for Boys and Girls,
B & H Special, Jimmy and
Stormer, which are sold ex-
ceedingly cheap.

PURE WATER.

Instances of the great benefit to
public health, in localities of the
Southern States, from the intro
duction of artesian water, instead
of the product of surface wells, are
on record. There is good reason
to believe that the timely supply
of artesian water in Honolulu was
great aid in preventing the
spread of the cholera in 1895.
Our citizens should not rest con
tented until the partial supply of
artesian water at present enjoyed
is increased to quantity that will
do away with surface water entire.
ly for household purposes. What
we have got since the pumping
station was started about two
years ago, in all probability, has
prevented good deal of sickness
that would otherwise have affiict-
ed the community. For a consid-
cradle part of this time the
weather has been in irregular
moods, such as detract from the
ordinary salubrity of our climate,
and there is no saying what might
have been if a majority of
residents had been dependent on
the scarce and impure supply of
water which characterized the
more droughty seasons of former
years. Mr.. Kings energetic ad.
ministration of the Interior De-
partment will be gratefully re-
membered by the people at large
for nothing more than the i'm
provement of the water supply.

JAPANESE FORESIGHT.

ueH Tue Ill DtlNts VI cdphH iot
protesting against the annexation
of Hawaii by the United States
are more fully revealed, it will
probably appear that the Japanese
statesmen take far less account of
the present than of the future.
They are not thinking so much of
the position Of the $4,000 Jsps
nese now in these islands, per.
haps, as some of our people as
sumo they are. In view of the
leading part the United States has
taken among the great western
nations in granting japan the
revised treaties now about coming
into force, it would be difficult
and besides have an ungracious
appearance for Japan to employ
the argument against annexation
that Japanese here would have
less favorable treatment under
the American than under the Hs-
waiian flag. So far as the Japa.
nese protests have gone, they
have but constructive re-
ference to the personal rights of
Japanese in the islands. Japa-
nese Interests in Hawaii are
strongly harped upon, and there
is liability of superficial observa-
ton - taking in only what is
presently most apparent in condi-
tions-iumping to the conclusion
that the Japanese statesmen have
chiefly in their eyes these $4,000
of their countrymen, almost en-
tirely introduced for labor pur-
poses, together with the compare
lively few merchants and indie
pendent artisans and agriculturists
who have gained a footing-the
prospect also being that these
latter classes will in time be great
ly augmented from the ranks of
the laborers whether immigration
continue or not. There is reason
to believe, however, that the posi-
ton of the Japanese inhabitants
of these islands is only second.
airy consideration in the attitude
Japan has assumed toward the
annexation treaty, Japan is look
ing ahead to the vast expansion of
commerce in the Pacific which has
been predicted by eminent
observers for more than genera
ton past. Her opposition to the
annexation treaty is based largely
on motives the very same as those
that actuated Great Britain and
France when in lS43 they without
avail asked the United States to
join with them in treaty guaran-
teeing the perpetual independence
OF the Hawaiian Islands. Those
nations then wanted, as Japan
does now-while it was and is
clear that the United States would |
resist any attempt by another
power TO seize the group--to have
such an important point Of want

age for both peaceful commerce
and strategy of war maintained in
strict neutrality. japan is thor
oughly awake to the irrepressible
competition that is even now in
operation for commercial supre-
macy in the Pacific, fully aware
also of the incalculable impetus
that will be given to the rivalry by
the completion of the Russian
railway to Vlsdivostock, the open
ing of canal to the Atlantic and,
what is already begun, the in
dustrial and commercial develop
ment of various countries washed
by this ocean, which have rich
resources hitherto scarcely broach-
ed by civilized hands. Japanese
ambition is in nothing stronger,
or has more to show for it even
now, than in the pursuit of great
ness in maritime commerce. 1t
/ figures upon lines of steamships
to every important port in the
Pacific littoral of America, lines
second to none in speed and other
desirable appointments. With
this more than a dream of the
future Pacific commerce before
their eyes, the japanese states
men place the greatest Importance
upon the advantages of a mid
ocean station such as Hawaii
furnishes. They perceive the
manifest disadvantages of having
such station under the internal
control of nation that is bound
to be one of the chief
rivals in the struggle for CONNER
cial supremacy in the Pacific.
For instance, any share in traffic
between these islands and the
United States mainland would be
forbidden to other than vessels
under the United States flag. That
traffic would be exclusively coast
wise one for domestic bottoms.
1t is the consideration of such in.
evitable results of annexation as
these pressed upon the attention
of European powers, who are in
the same boat with Japan as to
interests" which will be the
strongest part of Japan's diplo-
matte OPP osition to annexation.
That ia what the Marquis Ito is
doing in Europe now. II the
United States, with her much
longer and greater intimacy, re-
allied the value of these islands as |
fully as japan does, annexation
would not be question today but
an accomplished fact.

An inspection of the vote shows that

OF this was the disgust on the part Of
