SILVER LEAVING OAHU.
HEAVY FLOW OF IT TO OTHER
ISLANDS.
A Movement of the Currency Observ-
ed by Treasury Ofiicials-Takes the
Place of Plantation Drafts.

An unusual movement of the silver
currency of the country has been no.
tced by the Treasury officials for
some months past. There has been a
constant flow of silver dollars, halves
and quarters to the other Islands, and
no counter flow back. 1t is silver dol
lars, especially, that have gone, but
halves and quarters have added to the
volume of the movement.
This movement was first noticed ut
about the time of the cholera epidem-
ic. Previous to that, silver had been
drawn from the Treasury to go to the
other Islands, but about as much of
it came back as went out. Now there
is very little coming back, but more
than ever is going.
BY Department, of Finance officials
this movement is accounted for by the
knowledge that silver money is dis
placing in general circulation III the
other Islands, the plantation drafts
which formerly circulated there as
money. The drafts instead of circu-
lating there, are sent to Honolulu for
collection at once. The return for the
drafts are taken in silver, which goes
at once into circulation in place of the
drafts.
Plantation managers now in draw.

ever before. There are about S312,00t
of silver certificates outstanding now
Of this, about $4,000 is ISSUED

balance is issued against Hawaiian sill

The original reason for this move

likely to carry the germs of disease
It's use demonstrated its convenience
and the demand for it has steadily

Tragedy in Lanai Channel Narrowly
Averted

Lahaina, March 10.
A few days ago native named Ku-
amoo started alone for Lanai. When
he was about half way across the
channel it began to blow heavily from
the north, and he was obliged to low
er his sail. He tried to row to land,
bat was swept past by the wind. Fort
unately the Lanai ranch boat sailed
from Lahaina some time after he had
left, and the captain, Kaopuiki, took
in the situation, and after he had
reached Lanai, he obtained three more
men and started after Kuamoo, who
was away to leeward of the land.
When Kuamoo's boat was overhauled,
the three extra men were put in 1t,
and managed to sail the craft safely
to Lanai.
The match shoot between ten men
from the Wailuku Citizens Guard and
ten from that of Lahaina, is to come
off tomorrow. Each team will shoot
at its own range.
While Wilson's circus was here the
manager discovered that a number of
tickets had been stolen. He informed
the deputy sheriff, who investigated
the affair, and found that Portuguese
boy, who had been engaged by Mr..
Wilson, was the guilty party. The
boy pleaded guilty before Judge Ka-
haulelio, last Monday, AID was SEN
fenced to sixteen days imprisonment
at hard labor.

Our versatile and able editorial
brother of the Helena World, dis
courses at considerable length in
explanation and defense of his gold
mouometalism. Says more Demo
cratic journals should dare to speak
out against the faults Of the party,
then it would have "the confidence
aud the esteem of the thinking peo-
pie. and win battles. II virtually
pleads guilty to the charge of trea-
son against the free silver coinage
OF the party, as enunciated by the
Chicago convention, in a sort OF
confession and avoidance way.
Still hangs on to the dead and bur
led politically Cleveland ideas OF
Democracy, and, if it could, would
be "rld of the incubus of repudia-
tionism, of tree silSerism and an
archism," with which party has
been loaded down by Altgeld, Allen,
Tnlman, Teller and "any-thing-to-
win" Jas. X. Jones. We think the
World has lodged the issue, and ITS
dirty filings and inuendoes at the
party and Senator Jones, its leader,
is uncalled for and out of place. We
first called attention to its advo-
eating uudemocratic principles, and
advised the Phillips county Democ'
racy to discipline it a bit; it then
claimed Individual rights, and while
saying it had the courage to speak
its convictions, claimed allegiance
to the party; we finally showed that
free silver coinage (Which il eyer
opposes) is one of the cardinal and
vital tenets of Democracy, and that
for any person to oppose it while
claiming adherence to the party
discloses hypocrisy and treason, anc
that all who could not be true anC
loyal to the free silver coinage doc
triue, ought in all good conscience
to Join the Republican party, which
openly advocates gold monometal
ism. The World editor is perYerse
and we have little hopes of his evcl
becoming a true Democrat,

UNDER TWO FLAGS.

This splendid play was given last
night by capable cast and put on
the boards with good scenery and
fine costumes.
We regret that the audience
present was a small one for so good
a play and can only account for, the
absence of our regular theatre
Qoers on account of the cold night,
and also the fear of a long wait
for a car after the theatre is over.
We had the cold all right, but the
cars were at the park and did move
all the people on time and in a sat
isfactory manner.
OF the play we wish to state that
all in the cast did splendid, especi-
ally so of Mrs. Chase and Mr.. Chas.
W. Chase as the hero and heroine
of the play. Both seemed to be
moulded for that particular work
and the audience gave them rous-
ing applause.
H. Mordaunt, as the cruel and
big headed colonel, must have taken
lessons from some of the officers
sent out with our volunteer army
if newspaper reports are true Of
their unreasonable acts toward the
men. He is a splendid actor,
Tonight the play will be "Tht
Widow and the Fool, light COM
edy in which every one can fine
something to laugh at. After the
play, the floor will be cleared and
dance will be given.
Tomorrow afternoon will be giver
a matinee in which yankee JacE
in Cuba" will be put on the stage
and we can say that the play is
good one with splendid mechanical
effects and cannot help but please
the ladies and their children. A
uight, dewey in the Philippines,
will be given and it is said this plal
is even better than Yankee Jack.

many new laws, and certainly the
usual ninety-days session will not
be shortened with all the young
statesmen to be heard from. AS
noted heretofore in these columns,
all the members of both houses are
Democrats except two of the lower
house, William B. Moss, of Newton,
and Joseph G. Evans, of Searcy,
who are Republicans, There is not
a Populist in either branch, The
oldest senator is j. D. Kimbell, OF
Hot Springs, aged "a, and the
youngest, Eugene Lankford, OF
DeValls Bluff, aged 28. The oldest
representative is Joseph Howard, OF
Pope aged 70, and the youngest Is
Clarence G. Henderson, OF Ran
