On the eve OF the 18th inst, at
1880 o'clock, Frank James Woods
and Eva Observation-Disclosures Parker
were married at the Parker residence
at Mana, by the Rev. G. FL. Temp.
kins, the parson OF the Anglican
Church of Hamakua.
Members of the families OF the
contracting parties and a few init
mate friends had been invited to at
tend the ceremony, and the fine
residence was filed with the guests
who were cordially welcomed by the
genial host and hostess. Among
the guests were noticed the Princess
Kaiulani, Prince Cupid and wife,
Prince David, j. H. Wodehouse,
Captain John Ross, Miss X. Vida,
and few other Honolulu friends.
The wedding ceremony took place
in the large drawing room, which
was beautifully decorated by Ernest
Parker, the well known young artist.
Smilax, daisies, and other delicate
howers-so profuse at Mana-were
used for the decorations, and two
floral hearts in pink and white
daisies we're placed over the spot
where the young couple made their
promise Of standing together during
life for better and for worse.
The bride was given away by her
father, and was attended by Miss
Alice Woods as bridesmaid. Mr..
Samuel p. Woods acted as best man
to the happy groom.
The bride looked grand in her
magnificent gown made of satin and
draped with old Duchesse lace, and
wearing the conventional bridal veil
and orange blossoms.
The handsome young bridegroom
looked happy and proud man
when he and his beautiful wife re-
ceived the congratulations OF rela-
tives and friends. Then came the
announcement that the wedding
supper was ready at the "old Mana
House," and the party sat down
to most sumptuous Hawaiian
"spread." The good things to eat
and drink were served all night,
while dancing was going on in the
large dining room in the main build.

The Civil Service Debate.


The civil service discussion now on in
congress will have a good effect upon
the country at large, and will undoubt-
eddy result in a healthy change of pub
lie opinion regarding the so-called ''mer-
it system" In his speech before the
house of representatives on Saturday,
Congressman Hepburn, of Iowa, said
that the public had been misled regard
ing the effects Of the law by the high
sounding titles that were applied to it,
and he spoke the truth. 1t signifies
nothing when an applicant for a posi-
ton in the government service can an
swer Il lot of impractical questions,
translate Latin and read Greek: he may
not have the slightest idea of the duties
required of him in the position sought.
1t is a fine thing to have a college educa-
ton and be able to expound the doctrines
of Socrates. quote Caesars Commentaries
by the page, and point out all the CON
vi Uht D"p " IL Ato
indication of qualifications to fill the
position of driving four mules hitched
to a government freight wagon. The
absurdity of many of the questions
asked applicants, under an examination
conducted by the civil service examin-
ers. is enough to make any practical
man sick and tired of life.
Congressman Hepburn pointed out
another danger which will surely on
front the country in a few years, should
the civil service law be allowed to remain
the only channel through which en-
| ployment can be secured under the gov
eminent: that is: If there be no re-
ward for workers. the workers will be
more loyal to rich contributors than to
party and country" The people at
large are loud in their denunciation of
the rich men in politics and continually
harp upon the danger to free institutions
which arises from the use of money in
elections, and yet they imagine that the
very law which makes this danger pos
sible is the pink of perfection and should
be extended to every branch of the pub
lie service. A more erroneous impress
sion never prevailed. Once let an office
holding class become a firmly fixed part
of the United States government and
such a thing as thought of the welfare
of the country will disappear. The only
motive that will actuate the active poll
tician will be money. 1t is all very nice
to talk about the honesty OF the people
prevailing, but when it is finally settled
that the voters have nothing to look for
ward to but the exercise of the franchise,
the corporations and wealthy classes
will run this government as they please.
An office may not carry much remunera-
ton, but tdoes carry position and honor,
either implied or actual, and men will
make sacrifices for the benefit of the
country under the possibility of a reward
of that kind for themselves or friends,
which they would not consider for one
moment if they knew, that all the offices
were held for life by men who cared for
nothing outside of the salary connected
Herewith.
The American people have had many
frauds perpetrated upon them in the
name of reform, but the so-called merit
system" is the cap sheaf of the whole
lot. and the o it is relegated to the
dead past the better for the country.

The War About al an End.

Nearly three years ago, when the in.
surrection broke out in Cuba, the Span
ish government announced that the
island would be s%ubiugated with
in six months time; but the months
passed and the inhumane conflict was
prosecuted to the bitter end without
any apparent hope of an ending; all
offers of the United States to bring
about an understanding between the
contending forces were rejected by the
Spaniards with scorn: the proud spirit
of the dons would brook no Interior
enc from any outside power, and a
condition of affairs now exists on the
island which is simply appalling. Ac-
cording to the reports sent out by the
authorities at Havana hundreds of thou
sands of Cubans are dying of starvation,
while the Spanish troops are suffering
from the want of sufficient food.
But the end seems to be in sight. All
plans proposed for the s%ubjugation of
the insurgents have failed; peace on the
basis Of autonomy is impossible, and the
Spanish friends of the Madrid govern
ment in Cuba are deserving the cause of
the mother country at a rapid rate.
Spain is now ready to accept of the
good offices of this government to bring
about a settlement Of the troubles that
have for many years caused dissatisfac-
ton among the native Cubans. The
fact, that the Spanish ministry acknowl-
edges the hopelessness Of the war end
ing in u victory for Spain is also an ac-
acknowledgement that the Cubans have
a right to their liberty and to
self-government.

New Mexico Dam Case.

The decision of the Supreme court OF
New Mexico in the Elephant Butte dan
case is so clearly correct that the Supreme
court of the United States should have
no difficulty in reaching the same con
clusion.
1t was contended by those who sought
to restrain the construction OF a reser-
voir at Elephant Butte that a dam at
that point would interfere with the navi-
gability of the Rio Grande and that thus
it would violate a treaty with Mexico. But
it has been abundantly shown that the
river within the limits of New Mexico is
not navigable. This view has been sus-
tanned by both the District court before
which the case was first tried and by the
Supreme court of the territory.
The control which congress exercises
over navigable streams grows out of its
right to regulate commerce between the
states. 1t has no such control ovcr a
river lying wholly within the limits of a
single state. OF course in the case of a
territory it is different, for there the au-
thority of congress attaches directly.
But 1t cannot be shown that %impounding
water at Elephant Butte would 50 re-
duce the volume of the Rio Grande in
the lower courses of that stream that its
na~vigability wonld be interfered with.
1t should further be borne in mind that
that part of the river which is nayigable
lies wholly within the state of Texas. as
far as it is within the United States AT
all.
If congress has IA right to interfere
with irrigation enterprises because
many miles farther down a river is
navigable, then there is hardly any
limit to its authority over irrigation. In
that case it could put a stop to irrjga,
ton in Colorado because certain streams
which cross the state boundary are
navigable farther down. 1t could pro.
hibit the withdrawal of water from the
smallest tributary of such a river. In
short it could put a stop entirely to irri-
gation:' This consideration of itself
.should suffice to make the Supreme
court of the United States question the
existence of such authority. But apart
from this, it seems to be clear that con.
gress has no right to say anything at all
about what shall or shall not be done in
regard to Il stream above the point where
navigation ceases.
1t should be observed that q consider
able part Of the water %impounded in the
proposed reservoir would ultimately FIND
its way down the channel of the river.
All the water which did this would con.
tribute to the nayigability Of streams
just as it would if there were no dam tC
intercept its course. Furthermore, the
proposed dam at Elephant Butte would
not interfere any more with the naviga-
bility of the Rio Grande than the one
which the opponents of the Elephant
Butte enterprise wish to build at El
Paso. Attention is called to this by
Justice Smith, of the New Mexico SUI
prcme court, and he correctly says that
the object of the injunction proceeding
Is to remove an obstacle to the construc-
ton of a dam at Ell Paso. The talk
about interference with the naviga.
bility Of the river is a mere stalking
horse for the Ell Paso scheme.-Denve1
