TO follow conservative course by supply
ing such furniture as was actually neces-

HONOLULU, JULY IS, 1899

1t is most important that the
Board of Health should make stiff
cient quarantine accommodations.
1t was decided at recent meeting
that it would be dangerous to use
the quarantine station for epidemic
cases because it was infested with
rats; that they would only be a
factor of disseminating the dis
eases. If the quarantine station is
useless what is to be done. Ron
olulu is especially susceptible t.
epidemics because OF the numerous
steamers and sailing vessels that
touch here from every port OF the
globe, and the Hawaiian govern
ment has heretofore gained most
enviable reputation for vigor in
stamping out disease, This energy
should not be relaxed because the
islands have come under American
rule. The Board of Education has
always been efficient and it should
be much more so now because
ocean travel has doubled in less
than ten years and the danger to
the public health is that much
greater.

1t is certainly a coincidence that
Madame Pele should have chosen
the Fourth of July to come to life
again. From all accounts the way
she celebrated independence Day
knocked the persimmon" off of

question that Uncle Sam had Pele
hypnotized and woke her up in
time to make great display on Ha-
waits first Fourth of July. So
think the superstitious.

The great object of the Weekly

here paper to send to the United

wall. In this object it has beer
successful. Over 500 copies a

changes, makes a very respectable
showing for Hawaii in the United
