Our Nameless Streets.

Ed. The INDEPENDENT:-
l am visitor to your charming
city. l find, by your excellent Guide
and Handbooks, that the streets of
your city and it's suburbs are all
properly named. Can you suggest
to me any better plan of ascertain
ing where these named" streets are
located than by carrying out with
me a 6-foot Monsarrat chart and
counting out the blocks diagram.
aticallv before l can ascertain my
destination, for instance let us say
Pensacola and Hassinger? May /
ask whether the officials of your
municipal government are silent
partners in the hack companies and
leave your streets without names on
their corners in order that visitors
shall be compelled to employ themi

TUESDAY, APRIL IL 1898.

A "Globe Trotter" calls our atten-
tion to the fact that our street cor
ners still remain untagged with their
names in this the year of our Lord
1898, and the fifth of our great and
glorious republic. Who is to blameY
Certainly not Minister Cooper, al
though he has had charge of every
thing and is now Minister of the In
terror. Now right here is an excel
lent chance for him to make another
record at compelling obedience by
instructing Rowell or somebody else
to have the streets named right
away before we are annexed and the
army OF invaders lose their way on
"the plains"

THE CARTER MONUMENT.

The building on Palace Square of
an ugly board fence has again called
public attention to the so-called
Carter monument, which it is
proposed to erect within the
premises now fenced. The gen
eral public has had a chance to
experience what we call a second
thought" and even the energetic
jingoes, who did the "mouthing" in
1895, fail to see why the usefulness
OF public street or square should
be hampered, If not destroyed, by
the erection of a monument, placed
there to perpetuate the memory of
-what9
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-04-12

II it is considered advisable and
proper to have a monument for Car
ter, let it be erected in the yard Of
the Palace or in that of the Judi
ciary Building. If he was hero,
and we are to go in for hero wor-
ship, take down that "royalist"
statue Of Kamehameha and place
the Carter fountain there. Poor

Museum carrying his name,
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-04-12

Monuments are signs Of nations
gratitude to men, who have done
great service to their country. In
civilized countries such monuments
are only erected in public places in
very rare cases, which are marked
with red letters in the history OF the
country or the community. We fail
to see what Mr.. Carter has done to
deserve public monument. We do
not believe in hero-worship, bee ause
we trust that every man in his walk
OF life will do his duty, when duty
calls him, but we do believe, that a
fatal political error is being made in
devoting public square to perpetu-
ate the memory of an incident,
which all should be trying to forget,
and to daily affront the Hawai-
ians who have martyrs Of their own
to remember, from the days of '95,
and who cannot look at Charles
Carter in the light of hero.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-04-12

The writer had the highest esteem
individually for the late Charles
Carter, who always showed himself
courteous and affable gentleman.
We fail, however, to see any reason
why public property should be
granted for the purpose of estab-
fishing him as a hero, because we
fail to see where his claim to the
honor comes in, and we believe that
he would be the first to say SO If he
could be heard.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-04-12

Our missionary government, the
members and supporters OF which
at all times derided and abused the
alleged unholy acts of the monarchy
has given to us the Sunday concerts;
the target practice of the "braves"
on Sundays, to the annoyance of the
neighbourhood and to the danger
of the "braves" who then are sup
piled with Sunday beer, We have
seen a Legislature in which the
missionary members vote for un.
limited beer for the people and
facilitate the opportunity to flood
the country with sake. We have
noticed non-missionary member Of
the Legislature opposing the Sake
bill with the reduced duty schedule,
because Sake is injurious to the Ha-
waiians, and being opposed in his
motion by son of missionary who
virtually said d the Hawaiians let
the Sake flow; after us the deluge.

While reading an editorial in the
missionary organ this morning, in
which the editor, son OF mission
ary, and the chief Of a paper belong
ing to the church and the sugar
Castle, SCOTS at the Easter services
at the Central Union Church, we
could not help reviewing the doings
OF our "unselfish" Christians during
the present regime.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-04-12

We have repeatedly been told,
that the late monarchical govern
ment was heathen, rotten, immoral,
corrupt, abominable and everything
else, which can be illustrated by a
"bad" adjective in Webster's die
tionary, and that the present gov
ernment could only be described by
the use of all the "good" adjectives
in the standard work.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-04-12

The "missionaries" who are taking
part in this display Of blasphemy, as
their forefathers would call it, are
simply playing to the gallery in the
hope Of fingratiating themselves with
the guncarriers, who as a rule prefer
the sight OF rank "royalist" to
that of missionary.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-04-12

And finally we notice the "organ,"
pealing forth words that the sacred
tunes used at the Easter service in
the Central Union temple are crib
bed from German Beer saloons, and
suggestion is made to make the
refined song "Where did you get
that hat" an orthodox hymn.

license bill will be acceptable, and
we have no doubt that the bill will
pass on a plan somewhat like the
Gothenburg system in regard to the
sale of liquor.

We deeply regret the occurrence,
which cost that young man his life.
He did not fall in open battle. He
did not sacrifice his life in serving
his country. He simply went with
out right or warrant into a place,
where he had no business, and he
was shot down by an inebriated
kanaka, who did not know what he
was doing.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1898-04-12

How about the police officers, who
have lost their lives in responding
to the call for duty2 Have they
been rewarded with public monu-
ments, or any other tokens of graft
tude from the people? The erection
OF a memorial fountain on Palace
Square to Charles Carter is poor
policy on behalf Of the Government,
bad form on behalf OF the promo
ters, and, during the few years it
will remain there, an insult to the
majority OF the citizens Of Honolulu.
Finally we will ask by what auth
ority the Minister OF Interior has
permitted the erection OF the men,
orial fountain on Palace Squarei
We believe that the Minister can
sell certain Govern ment lands or ex-
change them, under an Act passed
by the Legislature, but he cannot
donate to anyone one inch of Gov
ernment property, nor can he, at his
own sweet will, obstruct public
street. We hope that the Legisla-
ture will take the matter up and ask
few questions" to learn where
the Government has obtained it's
authority to permit the erection Of
the Carter monument. III the ac-
ton in this matter of the Minister
is to stand as a precedent, what is
there to prevent the Government
from placing buildings, monuments,
busts, etc, along every street as
long as they don't actually interfere
with the traffic?
