been overlooked by Hilo's good friends
at the capital. II is a question IL larg-
er insurance rates are paid anywhere
than in Hilo and the high rate here Is
due to a great extent TO the limited IA
cilities at the command of the fire de-
partment. The town has been singu-
larry free from fires; indeed the only
one OF note was sort of legal confla-
grafton ordered by the health authori-
ties on account OF a case Of blood-poi-
soning In the family of the proprietor
Of the store. But it will not always be
beer and skittles for Hilo; once start
ed there may be a fire that will make
up for all lost time, and Hilo should be
prepared for such events. Before the
Serrao building was destroyed the en-
CINE was tried and a plug was blown
out TO sea. Had the fire been OF the
ordinary sort there would have been
no opportunity to try the engine until
IL was put in active service, and then,
had the plug blown out, Hilo would
have had a moderately clean water
front. A few thousand dollars ex-
pended in a new engine might be the
means Of averting a calamity at any
time, and the Council OF State is re-
spectfully asked to consider the advisa-
bility OF such expenditure. A petition
signed by business men would be of
weight in getting the much-needed
sum.-Herald.

resulted in a decision by the trustees
of the Hilo Hospital to quit having the
sewage from the hospital dumped
into the Wailuku. which is used not
only by natives but by many white res
idents for bathing purposes. This in
sanitary state OF affairs has existed for
some time, and before that the condi-
tions were hardly better, though the
chief disastrous results were visited
upon the hospital, where several OF the
attendants we're taken down with ty-
phoid fever. We are glad that a gen.
timely sanitary method OF disposal has
now been agreed upon.-Tribune.

About Local Option.

The conference committee has wise
ly decided to let the people of the ISL
ands say whether or not liquor shall be
sold in saloons or at all. Such DISPOSE
ton OF the matter will give satisfac-
ton TO every liberal-minded person on
the Islands. For Congress to say what
rights shall be restricted is going a
shade too far, particularly in the case
OF Hawaii, where the people are intel
ligent enough to think for themselves.
Aside from this the fallacy of the pol
icy of prohibition is shown in the
opium farce; poor men have grown
rich In Honolulu handling dope, and
the Island jails are full of men who
have been convicted of having the con-
traband article In their possession, and
yet smuggling goes on and smokers
still exist. To attempt to keep the sale
of liquors confined to hotels" would
mean that there would be more such
places OF entertainment than were ever
dreamed OF at the capital; the expert
ence of New York city In that respect
would be the experience of Honolulu.
IL a majority of voters in the Islands
want liquor sold or want to restrict
the sale they will have an opportunity
90 give voice to their wishes through
the ballot. There can be no question
as TO the result.-Herald.
