The Contest.

The rain came down in tarrents all
day Tuesday and at night the heavy
clouds and muddy streets kept a great
many from attending the declamatory
contest at the Court House. Only a
small sprinkle of people were present,
but they were amply repaid for going.
The young men acquitted themselves
with great credit and there was much
speculation as to the winner. The
speakers were Messrs Clay Goodloe,
Danyille, q. C. Crook, Richmond,
Booth Sutton, WIN. Marsee, w. L.
kuykendall, Marksbury and Marshall
Maupin, Richmond. The pirze, a schol-

mond. As the proceeds of the enter.
tainment were to 60 to the Baptist
church it is regretted that the audi.
ence was so small.

great Improvement. Near Mr.. Dilon's
the city is doing some good street work
in the way of laying tile and filling in

without delay, a stone walk from

1t has been and is now the custom
for the commanding officer of my regi-
ment to order me to the railway sta
ton at Lytle and direct me to remain
there during the entire day. Nearly
all the clothing drawn by me for the
regiment has been opened and distri-
buted to the several companies during
my absence and against my repeated
protest, and no proper or suitable re-
ceipts of any kind have been taken.
have frequently endeavored to obtain
proper receipt rolls from company
commanders and have appealed to the
colonel commanding the regiment to
require such rolls to be given me, but
without success Also large quantities
of clothing, for which I am account
able, have been left out of doors COW
cred with q tarpaulin and without
guard for days at time, and my re-
quests for a guard to protect this prop
erty have been refused by commanding
off Ger. The Regimental quartermas-
ter sergeant is utterly inefficient and
my requests tor the appointment of
another man in this position have been
refused and have not and am not now
allowed any other clerical assistance

While Lieut. Salter will say nothing
about the matter. yet the opinion of
his friends is that the whole affair was
cunningly devised for the sole purpose
of getting him out of the Louisville

has resigned a. quartermastsr OF that
regiment, he still holds his commission

ated, and the necessity of having re-
sponsible men who will act with judg-
ment at once, when there is no oppor-
tunity of applying at headquarters. In
this way we have a multiplicity of Off
cials, and the cry is ever for more.
There is one thing upon which the
House, however. is likely to be free
handed in. and that is roads. There
is not a country member who has not
a sreaf of petitions and a dozen prop
ositions of his own in reference 20
roads. and there is no one who knows
anything about the Islands that will
not acknowledge the crying necessity
up, good roads, not bride paths in
terspersed with mud holes, are de-
manded. II is no use improving land
and bringing it into cultivation, if the
only means of getting the produce to
market is on the backs of mules and
donkeys.
That much has been done in the di-
rection of roads is true, but every dis
trict. like Oliver Twist, is crying for
more. There is a main road almost
around the Island of Hawaii, but
there are breaks here and there. where
it is still impossible for a wheeled We
hicle to go. These must of necessity
be made practicable. Then there urc
roads to landings. roads to homestead
reservations. bridges over streams,
and where people have lost their lives,
in fact the demand is very great. That
it can all be carried on in the next
two years is impossible. There will
have to be careful consideration of
what is most necessary and what is
for the advantage of the majority.
But it is one thing to appropriate
money for roads, bridges and public
improvements generally, and quite an
other thing to have that money spent
to the best advantage. There has been
considerable complaint in some parts
that the funds have not been so spent
and that the work has been poor. Road
making is expensive, and a road once
made, requires constant care, other
wise with our heavy rains and our hot
sun, it soon disintegrates, and the
money spent upon it might just as
well be thrown into the sea.
Considerable information upon thest
points has been collected by the mem
bers through questions and persona
observation, and no doubt the subject
will be duly considered. At the pres
/ ent moment The Star considers The
road question as one of the fcrcmus
! in the Islands.

DIM DED.

From the views expressed by the
Anti-AnneXationists there seems to
DE division i'm the Hawaiian Royalist
camp. There are the true-blue restor-
ationists: then there are the followers
of Kaiulani, and they seem to hate
one another with even a greater ha-
tired than they hate those who have
present control. History ever repeats
itself, and there has never been m
overthrow of monarchy but what
there has been some kind of u quarrel
among the aspirants TO the vacant
throne. but a Republic bars them all,
and again history repeats itself here.
One can now see more clearly than
ever the object Representative Loeben-
stein had in proposing his amendment
to the Constitution. 1t was Ro.Idi-
list move. pure and simple. The re-
turned Anti-AnneNationists confess as
much. In an insidious way, the arti-
Gle almost won some supporters, but
the true inwardness is very plain now,
and there can be no more mistakes.
The Anti-AnneNationsts bring bot
cold comfort to their supporters. John
Richardson says the cause is dead. mt
he wants 800 to carry on the battle
against the corpse. which apparently
continues to be somewhat lively. The
supporters of the eN-Queen say annex
alton can never take place, but tie en-
Queen remains at Washington to
watch for a chance of indemnity.
Annexation is by no means dead.
The trend of events has thrown it m
to the background for time, bat the
cause will come back again with re-
newed strength. The chances for lis
contamination remain good, despite
all that can be said to the contrary.
