Elected City Chairman.

Sunday was cloudy, but pleasant
day to the pedestrians, and many could
be seen vending their various ways to
the churches.
The First Baptist Church Sunday
School gave their annual picnic on last
Monday to Gravel Hill, about5% miles
from me city. The train OF wagons
seemed to have been very substantial,
but on reaching point near Granite
station one of the wagons turned over,
throwing all to the ground. Mr.. A Q.
Powell received an ugly wound in the
forehead and one on the right cheek.
Mrs. Mamie g. Robinson was seriously
mashed by the large number of people
falling upon her. Her injuries are all
internal, which will no doubt be pain
ful many years. Some others received
sprains and scratches, which are of lit
tie consequence.
1t was about II 80 when the wagons
arrived at the grounds. Every bJdy
seemed cheerful and out for picnic fun.
The table for the Sunday School was
prepared about ? 80 O'CLOCK, and the
scholars seemed to have enjoy them
selves. After the refreshments had all
been served. little fracas occurred
between some OF Granite men and q
Manchester man. The rumpus lasted
fully one hour and halt and not q
blow was passed. Excitement reigned
supreme during this period of time,
the females screaming to the pitch OF
their voices running to the woods and
TO the church, while the little ones
cried for mamma. After the would be
lighters had quieted down somewhat
the pic-nickers began to crowd the
wagons, preparing to return home.
They reached the church about 8 go
O'Clock, thus ending, the day of pleas

A BIT OF HISTORY.

Under the monarchy there was d
lovely system by which the govern
ment or the sovereign might and did
hold a majority of the Legislature In
those days there were no disabilities
for Legislators, and men went into the
House with the full intention of max
ing a good thing out of it, and they
did
There were two methods by which
men could secure for themselves a
snug position and a fat salary. One
was to support the government
through thick and thin. The other
was to abuse it at every opportunity,
thwart its pet projects, and be as tur-
bulent as possible.
This was the more successful meth
cd, but it required a man of greater
ability and bigger rascal to carry it
through. 1t required little bargain
ing, but there were always go-be-
tweens and the matter would be ar
ranged4 1The'oe turbulent member
would be less turbulent, at criti-

In spite of the fact that the protocol
provided for the cession of Porto Rico
and the small West India Islands own
ed by Spain, and for the evacuation of
Cuba, so that one would think that
portion of the question settled. the
Spaniards intend to play card which
will, they hope, cause delay. This is
with reference to the Cuban debt and
Cuba's commercial relations. Upon
this the Spanish peace commissioners
will base claim. The negotiations
will be of an intensely interesting
character, and though they may not
be fully reported, enough will back
be fully reported, enough will leak
by next steamer.

Some years ago the Hawaiian Is
lands sent to California for an expert
upon the means of destroying the va
rious blights upon our trees, and OBJ
tanned the services of Professor Koebe-
lie. He obtained various insects from
California, Japan, China and else
where which have waged effective war
against our various pests. Now we
are about to return the compliment,
for Los Angeles dispatch says that
an agent, from five counties of South
ern California, is coming to Hawaii
to secure a parasite which will prey
upon the purple and red scale bugs
which are beginning to infest the
fruit trees. One good turn deserves

The residents of Hackfeld street
seem determined to exercise their
rights, or at least to find out what
their rights are under the law. One
of the best ways of finding out what
these are is to go ahead and do what
they want until they are stopped The
condition of some of the new streets
of the city as soon as rain begins to
fall, is very bad indeed In fact a
large number are merely fine weather
tracks, and as soon as the winter
comes on they become almost impas-
sable. The only chance of having a
good road is to have a cabinet minis
ter live in your vicinity. One has
only to point to the road out to Mo-
analua, to the road up Manoa as far
as Minister Cooper's, to the great i'm
provement in Emma street, giving a
fine approach to the residence of Pres
ident Dole, to verify the fact.

The japanese vernacular press is
advocating that more damages be de-

that the japanese press does not I'M

stands the trend of events as little the
royalists of Hawaii who ask for re-
storation. Both the japanese claims
and the Royalists claims are dead.

Honolulu has had great deal pre-
scented to it in the matter of amuse-
ment lately, but the audiences have
been anything but satisfactory. The
exact cause for the apathy is hard to
decide upon. The summer months are
over and the bulk of our citizens have
returned to their homes. Perhaps
there are more small social gatherings
than formerly and these keep people
away But the fact remains that any
thing superlatively good has always
commanded full houses. Will it do sc
in the future?

cal votes he would have gone a-fishing
or he would be sick, and several of his
minor followers would be absent, and
the government would carry its point.
Some billet would be found for which
the salary would be raised to double
what it had been, and after the ses-
sion was closed, the 7. NJ. would be
found an ardent supporter of the gov
eminent, sitting in a government Of
flee, and drawing down government
pay and perquisites.
This method of government the Ha-
waiian Islands enjoyed to the full. In
fact they revelled in it. Why, there
was one Legislature in which every
member of the lower house was an
official of some kind Not single one
was left out in the general distribu-
ton of good things. The matter be-
came so glaring; the bribery for it
was nothing else than bribery of the
grussest kind, stunk so in the nos
trils of honest men, that it was one
of the factors that helped to bring
about revolution, and led to a clear
ennuucation of the disqualification of
members of the Legislature. This in
nutshell is the history of Articles AZ
and -, which appear in the Constitu-
ton.
-. al. . l.
If you allow government employees TO
become members of the Legislature
you give the Cabinet, which makes
and unmakes them, enormous powers
which would overbalance the free and
independent members very quickly.
Therefore Article 43 says:
Except members of the Council of
State, no person holding office in, or
under, or by authority of the Govern
ment, including Notaries Public and
Agents to take Acknowledgements, nor
any employe of the Government, shall
be eligible to election to the Legisla-
ture or to hold the position of an
elected member of the same"
If on the other hand you allow the
members of the Legislature to accept
government pay in whatever form,
during the period of their member
ship, you give strong power to the
| Cabinet, which they will sooner or Ia
| ter use. Therefore, Article AZ, which
was printed in these columns yester-
day, but which will bear reproduction,
was inserted. 1t reads:
mo member of the Legislature shall
/ during the term for which he is elect
ed, be appointed or elected to any Of
/ flee of the Government except that of
President, Cabinet Minister, Justice of
the Supreme Court, or member of the
Council of State
/ Now, according to these sections OF
/ the Constitution, it is very plain that
\. b. Loebenstein is not available for
government employment. and it is in
order for the government to explain
how it is that he is to get government
money?
