THE ANNEXATION FLOOD

Did you ever stand upon the
dam of great reservoir and
watch the rise of the waters to-
wards the summit of the embank
ment, in the time of a spring
flood? And did you ask yourself
the question, will it overflow? or
will the waters recede? or will they
stand still? And, when you knew
that the great body of water was
fed from springs which covered a
vast area, and were located a hun
dred miles away, and that no liv-
ing human being had ever counted
them all, or had guaged the rain
fall you felt quite certain that
any prediction you made about
the rising food was mere guess
work. 1t might rise to an inch of
the top, or it might rise high
above the inch and overflow, and
it might suddenly fall.
This is the condition of the an
flood, at the last adyices.
The thousand political springs
which run into it, may be increas-
ing their waters. They may not.
There may be heavy rains in the
mountains that no one knows
about. There may be unknown
Soakage. The flood may reach the
top of the embankment in a week
and overflow on Hawaii soil. And
it may not. All we can now do is
to watch the weather guages, and
marke the fallOf rain. If the wa
ters recede. the II told you so"
people will shout. If the overflow
takes place, the other lot of Il
told you so" people will shout.
Men, who are really no longer
BOYS, will simply watch and wait.

changes in the water guages. We
will wait and read

A MEMORABLE DUEL.

The Star and the Bulletin have
closed terrific newspaper duel about
large and noble tree standing in the
newly opened Vineyard street. The
Star wanted the tree removed. The
Bulletin shook a red flag at the tree
destroying Star, with the words:"Wood-
man spare that tree" inscribed on it.
At once the duel was on Each paper
used its own favorite weapon. That of
the Bulletin is Damascus blade, with
the war cry of "bumptuous fiatul-
ence" inscribed ON it. The sight or
hearing of these words inspires terror
and flight. That of the Star is a mo-
dern Connecticut blade, carefully tenn
pered, in taro patch, with the war
cry of "billious dyspeptic" engraved on
it. The sight or hearing of these words
also strikes terror and leg impelling
fear into an enemy. Both war cries.
used with singular effect on the Ad-
vertiser, were selected from an ency-
clopedia of newspaper invective, and
are the most effective since the due!s
of the Knights of the Printers Ink
were introduced into Germany several
centuries ago.
In the duel over the Vineyard street
tree, the Star lunged its bilious dys-
peptic" rapier at the Bulletin and nip
ped its ear. On the other hand, the
Bulletin, with its own superb blade of
'.bumptuous flatulence" cut the Stars
ham strings, contrary to the code of
duelling. Above the contestants, the
air waves have been thrown into utter
confusion by the piercing, sharp, re-
lentless, snorting war cries that have
driven the mynah birds over the Pail.
and sent the goats flying from the
Punchbowl slopes.
The duel is over now. The Vine

stand. The Bulletin yells to the tree

THE FORESTS.

We are sure that the Hilo Her
aid does not intend to criticise un
fairly DR.. MaXwelPs views regard
ing forest reservations. While he
is engaged to promote the inter
ests of the sugar planters, his OPP
iniOns are altogether too broad to
be Influenced by any personal rea-
sons. He may be in error about a
matter which is not yet well I'M
derstOOd. We see that the evidence
on the subject of forest influence
on rainfall is conflicting. Many
facts tend to show that the fall
of rain is entirely superior to the
existence or nOn-existence of for
ests.
The best evidence of DR.. Max
wells impartiality in the matter
is his voluntary recommendation
that Prof. FurnOw be invited to
examine and report on our forests,
although Prof. Furnow declares
that the argument for forests on
the ground that they attract rain
sis open to attack without sure
defense"
To narrow the area of the coffee
lands is very serious matter, and |
it should not be done unless there |
is abundant evidence in favor of |
it.
One of the most important ques-
tons for the planters to debate is,
the best means for preventing in
so many places the waste of irri-
CATION water. When they have
conserved the visible water sup
ply, and find it deficient, they can
ask for special provisions for Sc
curing an additional supply.

THE DEFEAT OF A LAW.

When general public sentiment
is not in favor of a law, it sim
ply ignores it. The Maine Liquor
law has been on the statute books
of that State since 1850, and has
never been enforced effectively.
1t did much good in limiting the
sale of liquors, but it did not pro-
hibit. 1t illustrates the failure of
all laws which do not represent
the average opinion. Although
the law peremptorily forbade the
sale of alcoholic liquor, it was de-
feated by very practical, but il
legal device. In Bangor, Maine,
for instance, liquor was sold at
retail by number of men. Once
a year they were brought before
the Police Court, charged with
violation of the law and were each
fined 500 for a years offense.
This sum was regarded as equiva-
lent to a years license to sell
liquor. AS the fines brought in a
steady revenue to many of the
towns, there were no serious or
effective efforts made to enforce
absolute prohibition in many
places. The law stood on the
statute book as a prohibition

the gardens of the Golden river"
The Angel of the Record walk
ed through the many gardens,
clean and well raked, and without
weeds. He raised his hand, and
gentle showers fell on all the beds
and moistened the seeds.
AS he was leaving one of the
gardens, he noticed a little mar
row bed, into which two small
orphan girls had dug down, and
with tiny fingers had planted the
seeds of an American wild flower
called the ''life everlasting of
love-" 1t was in memory of their
dead mother. The Angel leaned
over it, for a moment in silence.
y tear dropped from his eye on
the earth and the seed and quick
ened it, and as the Advertiser
goes to the press room, after mid
night, it hears that the life ever
lasting" sprung up into bloom,
and at sunrise this morning it will
be heavy with perfume.

AN OLD QUESTION.

Forty-two years ago, the ques-
ton put before one of the large
literary societies of Yale College
was: Ought Cuba to be annexed
to the United States?"
Three members of the college,
at that time, now reside here and
listened to the debate. Chauncy
Depew, also a member, was pre-
sent. The arguments in favor of
annexation used today, were used
then. The decision of the referee
was not upon the merits of the
question, but upon the merits of
the speakers.
The strongest argument against
annexation, at that time, was the
existence of slavery in the island
of Cuba, and the probable renewal
OF the slave trade, In the event OF
annexation.
Since that time, slavery has
been abolished in Cuba, by decree
of Spain, and abolished in the
United States by 'blood and
iron"
The new issue now is the 'Man-
fest Destiny" of the Americans.
Sea crabs, once a year, out-grow
their shells, and withdraw from
them. Nature at once forms a
new shell over them, and shortly
in their hard and enlarged shells,
they work out their own manifest
destiny.

shell. 1t is hard and inf1exible on

measure, but the people turned il
into a license measure by a prac-
teal fiction.
The laws of a country do not
rise above the character of the
people, unless the Government is
despotic or an oligarchy. 1t is so
here. The prohibition of the sale
of liquor to a native, was the work
of kings and chiefs, who wisely
made the law without reference to
the will of the native people. In
the course of time, the power of
the kings and chiefs declined, and
the power of the natives increas-
ed. through the ballot box. They
as so many American
wish, that liquor
should be sold to themselves. and
they prevailed. The king favored
the change, because the natives
desired it. The same principles
Of social evolution exist here, as
they exist elsewhere. Laws that
are "better" than the average peo-
pie become obsolete in demo
cratic state.

GOOD RESOLUTION" GARDENS

AS it was New Years eve, and
"GOod Resolution" eve, yester-
day, there was a general spad-
ing up of the many gardens of the
souls, scattered through the town.
Large quantities of the good re
solution" plants of the last year
had died early. Some couldn't
get their roots into any soil, and
very many had lost their leaves
under the rayages of the Japan
csc beetle of Incidence. These
were turned under" as the gar
deners say, being a sort of
spiritual manure.
During the week there has been
a brisk demand for good resolu-
ton seeds, from Brine, Mack
intosh & Company, dealers in hor-
ticultural morals, and under their
printed directions for making such
seeds sprout rapidly, there was
some deep oyer-turning of garden
soil that was uncommonly "sour"
as the farmers say, for it needed
light and air. Here and there the
spades struck some vigorous
perennials of the best good re-
solution" stock which had been
planted for years, and here and
there were some hardy fruit trees
of the same stock, which were
laden with fruit, the ohias of good
deeds.
The Angel of the Record, to-
wards midnight came down and
walked through the gardens
which were prettily Illuminated,
and made some notes on the
"good resolution" seeds and flow
ers, the names of which were writ

A PUBLIC RECEPTION.

Capt. Sam Burroughs, back wood
man of Tennessee, attended one Of
President Tyler's New Years recep-
lions. AS he appeared in his shirt
sleeves, one of the ushers quietly re-
quested him to go to his rooms and gel
his coat, before entering the reception
room. The hood of the Tennesseean
instantly flushed up to fever heat. He
made at once some incisive, instruc-
tive and running commentaries on the
origin and nature of American politi-
cal institutions, and the relations OF
the President to the people. THAT
fellow in thar" he shouted to the
usher, ''is the sarvent of the people.
Me and my people in Tennessee is
sovereigns, and the President amt no
better than d-n niger in being OBJ
LEGGED to do as the people tell him."
The wearing of the coat was not in
sisted on. Captain Burrows shook
President Tyler's hand, and made
bulPs-eye of the spitoorn on the other
side of the room.
The wife of a foreign diplomat OBJ
serving the incident remarked that she
now saw, for the first time, the I'M
couth strength of democracy in Ameri-
ca. The Captain was rough diamond,
but his descendants would in due time
appear in all the manners and habits
of the fashions of the old world.
Regarding the intercourse of the
public and the Executive, the Sover-
eign people should, on great public oc-
casions, stand up in sections, while
the President and his official staff
should appear before them, bow lowly
in humility, and cover themselves
with dust and ashes in token of their
mental positions as public servants.
But here, as elsewhere, a sort of Mon
archial idea prevails, that the Exc
cutive is a political leader or master.
There is something homogeneous in
he spectacle, however pleasant, of the
head of the Nation dressed in plain
;,othes, while the subordiantes are illu-
with gorgeous raiment.
Mama" asked a little girl, as she
saw for the first time, the brilliant staff
Of an American governor; ARE those
he Angel Gabriel and his boys? Where
are their trumpets?"
AS there is in Japan serious con-
regarding the old and attrac-
i've native costumes of the people in
contrast with modern European dress,
50 there is controversy here, smoth-
cred at times, regarding the ancient
md natural native Hawaiian dress, so
so picturesque and so scanty
md the modern European dress. The
reception on New Years day might
we'll have been one in which all of the
Did natives costumes were revived, as
f at fancy ball. Should annexation
axe place, such a reception would be,
perhaps, fitting round up of the ma
i've nationality before it entered into
he great nationality.
