LONELY LIVES.

The schooner Aloha arrived yester-
left on Iaysan Island, The men had
quarrelled and the captain of the Aloha
had thought it better to give one of
them passage to Honolulu. He left
however a member of his crew to keep
young Spencer, who remained on Lay
san, company.
Laysan Island has. furnished us
grewsome tales enough already, but if
the owners take to leaving two men
alone on the Island, it is very likely
that there will have to be more added.
The experience of the past seems to be
constantly forgotten. When Augustus
Williams was in charge of an immense
guano business, many years ago, his
firm had to keep possession of Islands
by actual occupation, until the time
came to work them. After several
years experience it was found that the
Islands must be occupied by three men
or one. When two men were left for
six or nine months on an Island alone,
it was invariably found that one of
them had fallen i'll, and died in the in
terval. OF course there may have been
no foul play, but there always was a
suspicion of it, If three men were to-
gether there were always two witnesses
to the death, but deaths seldom or
never occurred when three men were
left, the frequent deaths were where
two were left. 1t may have been a mere
coincidence, but Mr. Williams firmly be-
lieved it was not.
A similar experience is claimed for
light houses which are sometimes cut
off from the outside by long continued
storms, such as Eddystone. The force
of men there is always three, and some
peculiarly grim stories of what used to
happen when only two men were quar-
tered there can be found in any history
Of that light house.
The fact is lonely life such as that
of light house keepers or Guano Island
keepers is a strain on the temper, and
men become morose, brood and fancy
wrongs and Sights. This soon BIOS
SONS into hatred and that ripens
into crime. Experience is good mis-
tress to follow,

FORESTS AND WATER.

The more we give attention to the
forest question, the more vital 1t seems.
AS a gentleman who has studied the
subject remarked the other day. 1T
would pay the planters to buy up the
ranches and shoot all the cattle, in or
der to save and increase the forest
land, for without forest land your wa
ter supply will grow less and less and
you will become as arid as some of the
Atlantic Islands, which at one time
had a vegetation as dense as yours
used to be-" '''i
If nature were only given a chance,
from her fertile bosom she would even
get quickly recuperate, but we do not
give her d. chance The young trees
spring up and we allow them to be des-
'troyed, while the area of the old trees
is annually decreasing We have OBJ
sect lessons enough upon the Island of
oahr ava Sybst ~ :, true, of Oahu is true
of all the Islands.
There was some one talking of tap
pine Kaaia mountain for the purpose
OF Increasing the water supply. 1t is
highly probable that he would succeed
in decreasing the water supply ana
drying up the plateau which is now
covered with a. dense vegetation and
holds water like q sponge, On this very
Kaala mountain places where springs
never failed twenty years ago. are now
destitute OF water, and why, because
the forest has disappeared. Not from
decay has It disappeared, but by the
deliberate destruction of man.
If we study the question from another
standpoint we. wiz see the same causes
at work, The various insects of the
Islands are of interest to the scientific
world. Some years, ago certain kinds
of insects could, on Haleakala, be found
In abundance at an elevation Of 1000
feet. Now the same insects can only
be found at an elevation Of 5000 feet.
The same is' tfueNof Kaala. Insects
which were easily picked up at few
hundred feet above the sea level, that
is upon the lower spurs and gulches,
now must be sought for at an eleva-
ton of 1000 feet.
What does such a fact, which IL
stated upon Aunimpeachable scientific
authority and is the result Of trained
observation, mean? 1t simply means
that the vegetation which the insects
feed upon has peen retreating upwards
and the insects have very naturally
followed it., But think of what has
been done. These tree clad mountains
with their masses of vegetation are
being deliberately undressed as it were
Garment after garment of green is be-
ing rudely 0rpeeEay, and eventually
there will be nothing but bare hill side
mere naked earth which the sun will
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1900-09-26

bake pitilessly day after day and the
rain, when 1t falls will erode.
Whether the warnings which have
been given will be needed, remains to
be seen. But If, during a short life
time, one can observe personally the
reckless destruction which is going on,
think what it must be in many life
times. Moreover 1t is so easy to des-
troy and it is so difficult to build up
The destruction of thirty years may
take twice and three times that to re-
pair, and the longer we delay repairing
the greater will be the ratio Of time
for recuperation. yat.t
Not all are needless of the conditions.
There are individual owners who have
realized the conditions of their forests
and who are preserving them. But
there are others who are not. The
slopes of Kaala and of the Waianae
mountains may be cited as places where
no care has been taken for years
Wherever care has been taken the re-
suits of reforesting have surprised the
owners. Nature on these Islands is
kindly and bountiful and will help man
if he will only give her chance. In
France, where reforesting is being done
on an enormous scale, the plans, are
laid up for over hundred years ahead.
Here results can be looked for even in
ten years time, though to repair all
the damage may require many decades.
This is no fad, it is a serious territor-
ial ISSUE as important, more important
in fact than many political issues, for
it deals with the very kernel of the
prosperity of the country.

THE TICKETS.

The republicans of oahu selected
their ticket last night and it is UNI
dOubtedly a strong one. The senatorial
ticket is man for man far stronger
chan the senatorial ticket of the demo-
Gratis, and the individuals represent
greater and more progressive interests
than can be found in the list of the
latter Whether the average voter will
see it In that light is an entirely differ
ent thing Any one who is anxious for
the progress, of the, country and the
development of its. resources would
vote the republican ticket, but unfor-
funately many of the voters that have
to be dealt with care not snap either
for progress or. development, their
views being purely personal.
The tickets for representatives in the
Fourth and Fifth districts are also
strong. Both contain men who have
had recent experience in legislative
matters, while the democratic tickets
have only one man of such experience,
S. NJ Damon and his experience has
been from the ministerial or bureau
cratic side and not from that Of the
people. t..,...:.,
A. G. NJ, Robertson who heads the
ticket in the Fourth is an invaluable
man to have in legislation. He is thor
Oughly acquainted with law, has bad
years of legislative experience in 1ost
trying times, is one of the Iest Of OR
parliamentary speakers and thoroughly
keen and quick as a debater. What
ever work to be done the voters
may be sure will be we'll done by Mr..
Robertson.
Two other. old war horses of legisla-
tive life are ]. L. Kaulukou, who was
speaker of the last house of represent
tatives and L. L. McCandless. They will
serve as guides to the younger men.
These latter are popular and well
chosen. If the voter wants his district
properly looked after, he will vote the
republican and not the democratic
tickets. The republican ticket gives
men who are deeply interested in the
development of their districts. The
democratic ticket, though a strong one,
falls behind in this.
1t was said yesterday that the demo-
cratic ticket would be hard to beat. The
republican leaders have shown that it
can be beaten, hands down, and they
deserve credit for their work.

We are always running up against
dangers of some kind, Queensland has
developed a beetle or something of the
kind which will go through a field of
cane and destroy every leaf. If this is
true, and there is every reason to be-
lieve that the statement is not exagge-
rated, the greatest care should be taken
that this lively specimen of the genus
caleoptera should not be introduced
here. Sugar planters had better keep
their eyes peeled, or their cane fields
will be.

Kahuku Ranch is an instance of the
rise in values which has taken place in
this country. Not so long ago 1t was
sold for $4,000, then some one was
thought to have given far too much
when between forty and fifty thousand
was paid for 1t. Next came sale for
100000 which was never accomplished,
and now it is up at auction at the upset
price Of 100000. OF course there are
special reasons why, just now, the
ranch should be worth so much money.
No Cattle have been sold off the ranch
for years and the herd has been multi
plying very fast. Cattle, at present
prices, are almost worth their weight In
gold.

Manager Pain and his mules are once
more before the courts. There is no
doubt that gross cruelty is committed
almost every time Pains bus goes up
