This is one of the higher degrees of
this great order, and is considered one
of the most sublime institutions now
in existence. All Odd Fellows are
not camp members, but 1t is said BY
those who have enjoyed its fellowship
and worked in the camp. that no Odd
Fellow can possibly know the beauties
of the order until he has passed
through the ordeal of this degree. Its
lessons are sublime, its regslia pleasing
to the eye, its ritual work complete,
and is calculated to elevate man, and
make him what he was intended to be,
"The noblest work of God" To be q
member of Red Cloud Encampment,
No 81 is an honor we'll worth obtaining
and strict obedience to its teaching
will be full guarantee of good citi-
zenship.

COURT MISSIONARIES.

The good people OF Honolulu
sneered, to say The least, at TIE
INDEPENDENT, because We suggested
that some of our charitable people
should act as missionaries in our
courts and help in dragging young
people from sins and Jail. OF course,
we realize that the task would be
very unpleasant to the virtuous men
who are "hoomiug" stocks, and the
noble adj whose phila thropy
reaches only the clean chairs of the
Board OF Education.

That there have been rows no
body can deny, but we see no reason
why the Japanese laborers on the
Kohala plantation should be treated
with cruelty and eventually forced
to threaten the manager and show
him that they meant business" If
the reverend Mr.. Koda had not ap,
peared on the scene and pacifed the
Japs, we might have been obliged to
record bloodshed and battle. Our
correspondent tells us, however,
that i'll blood is dominant and that
a row between the Japanese and the
unpopular manager will occur.

The emigration question, says the
Osaka Mainichi, is giving the Japa
nese Government a lot Of trou b O.
Everywhere the emigrants have
gone, they have met with opposition,
and the policy of the Government
is to refuse as far as possible to
grant passports to free laborers to
America, Hawaii and Australia, The
adjournment of the U. S. Congress
before arriving at decision on the
question of the immigration of con-
tracted Japanese laborers, has given
time for the consideration of the
matter. The Japanese Government
therefore intend to enter into COM
munication with the United States
Government with the view of getting
clear definition of the distinction
between free and contracted labor.
ers. Hitherto, it appears, the fact
that Japanese emigration companies
are obliged under the provisions Of
the Japanese Emigrants' Protection
Law to keep agents at the different
landing places and there sign agree
ments with the emigrants, promis-
ing them all necessary assistance
should they become ill and helpless,
had led to great difficulties with the
United States Customs Authorities
as to whether such were contracted
or free laborers. 1t is anticipated,
also, that in the event of contracted
immigration into Hawaii being pro-
hibited the same difficulty will arise
there.

At the Kohala plantation, con-
trolled by the Castle & Cooke fac
tion, the Japanese received treat
ment few days ago which should
be lesson to their country rymen.
The laborers were kicked and ill
treated in different manners. Even
pieces of iron were hurled at them,
and it is a miracle that none of the
men were killed or injured. Accord
ing to the rules of the plantation
any dead Asiatic will be buried in a
hurry and sent to oblivion as fast as
it can be done.

Miss Helen Wilder looks after the
dumb animals and she leaves no
stone unturned to protect the
brutes. We believe that the young
lady's heart goes out to human
beings as much as to the horses and
dogs but the public cannot ask her
to "do the whole show" II some
of the descendants Of the early mis-
sionaries would devote as much time
to their fellow creatures as Miss
Wilder does to the dumb animals,
the world would be much better.

The old gentleman should have

25 boys replied that they smoke
tobacco. The girls made no attempt

Don't think that DR.. Smith was
intolerant and unforgiving, because,
referring to his diary, on December
26, 1886, "Hoopuipui came to school
with a written confession of her
crime-Moe Kolohe-and besought
me and the whole school to forgive
her and permit her to be again unit
