CORRESPONDENCE 0E.
Believes In Punahou.

Ed. The INDEPENDENT:--
In reference to the article concern
ing Oahu College and it's late presi-
dent, recently appearing in your
columns, please allow me space
in your valueable paper.
Ii the "old citizen" is a gradu.
ate from Punahou, his diploma was
evidently not conferred upon him
by President Hosmer, whose pupils
have not received instructions to
judge others by themselves and to
await PERSONS departure ere
opinions are off .red to the public.
Because total. darkness may
have bsen acceptable to the
Citizen" during his college career,
it is not necessarily accep table to
all, and they who doubt that the
studies Of Punahou require study
ing, are at liberty to decide the
question by taking the final
examinations in that institution,
or, to the same effect, the entrance
examinations to the standard COL
lege in the eastern states. The
students are judged by themselves,
not by their ancestors and the
same advantages are offered alike
to all.
Many OF the promising young
men and young women now in
this city may serve as examples
OF useful products and in due
time must become a credit to the
practical world, to Prof Hosmer
and to Punahou.

The theoretical Socialist soon
learned that the Socialists of the
ignorant stamp had taken the bit
between their teeth and were run
ming away without regard to their
former leaders. They are still on
the run and they believe that the
killing OF Emperors, Kings and
Queens is a pastime which should
be appreciated and lead to the con-
summation OF the doctrines laid
down by the "Catheder Socialists"

mean the theoretical socialists-they
become sceptical; that is they realize
