The Independent gives more than a
coiumn-and-a-half of its homiletie
space TO an appeal to Hawaiian legis-
lators not to take brides. 1t writes as
one without hope but firm in the fulfill
ment of a duty TO the state. The esti-
mate Of the moral fiber of Hawaiian
political leaders is not high but it is
the Independents and those native
publicists who do not like it must at
least blame some one besides the haoIe.
Observing the solicitude of our evening
contemporary we must confess surprise
that the Independent should have pre-
ceded its good advice by telling the Ha-
Baiian legislators to be sure and frame
cinch bills, such as one to levy a special
tax on sugar properties. If there were
bribers abroad such bills would be sure
to attract them. Why, If the Hawaii
an legislator is as fa1lible as the indie
pendent says. should that paper want
him TO go out Of his way to lure the
tempter?

Moral suasion is the keynote Of Fran
els Murphy's appeals and it strikes a
responsive chord in the common sense
of his audiences. Mr.. Murphy does not
storm at the saloon keeper who, per
haps, obeys a Scriptural injunction
when he gives strong drink unto them
that be ready TO perish and wine unto
them that be of heavy hearts, but on
the contrary the great temperance ad-
vocate urges his drinking friends, for
their own sakes, to strengthen their
weakness and brighten their melan-
choly with something less harmful than
spurious and malt liquors. By his rare
and simple eloquence and sincerity he
induces men to stop drinking; and it is
pretty certain that they stop sooner
and stay temperate longer than would
be the case If he caHed the police and
with some hastily devised law to WELD
as club, shut the front doors of the
saloons in their faces and ordered them
home.

Eight years ago now Hawaii was en-
tering upon the most important crisis
of its career. the revolution of 1893.
Those were troublous times but the re-
suits have been, in the main, 20 the
great advantage OF the Islands and
their people. The native Hawaiians
have more liberty than they ever en-
joyed before and all people have bet
ter chances TO gain wealth. But what
Hawaii escaped by virtue Of the reyolu-
ton is its greatest boon, namely the
commercial ascendency Of japan.
Things were shaping before 1893 to-
wards making Hawaii a japanese trade
dependency and had the Monarchy
gone on it is possible that Japan would
have got the franchise for its people
and filed the Legislature with them.
IL was worth the pains and periis OF
1888 to rid the Islands of that danger.

The removal of Chief Of Police De-
very Of New York at the instance OF
Boss Croker requires explanation. De-
very is a Croker man whose business it
has been to collect the blackmail from
which Tammany thriyes. From all ac-
counts he did that dirty work faithfully
and well. Then came Bishop Potter
with his new Parkhurst crusade,
whereuDon Croker, to take the wind out
of the Bishops sails, began a reform
movement whieh,le ft that Of stfe cru
saders far behind. With. an admirable
pretence of virtue he demanded Of De-
very why he had not closed the haunts
of vice and getting no satisfactory re-
ply he gave the Chief his walking pa
pers. Acting ON these lines the Tam
many leader hopes to sQueIch the Pot
ter movement and the sooner bring the
time around when mis- bIackmail bureau

Speaking of the merits of newspaper
publicity in the treatment Of public
abuses it is true that if the local press
had done its duty towards Chinatown
in 1893. the bubonic plague might not
have lodged here. Acting on the prin-
ciple that anything said about the
atrocious state of Chinatown and of the
indifference Of the then Board of
Health to its. most obvious duties,
would keep people away from the Is
lands, the local press preserved silence
and let things drift. w here they drift
ed to everybody. especially tn taxpay-
ers, are painfully aware It would
have been a thousand times better if
the newspaper press had uncovered
every foul spot and compelled the au-
thorities 10 clean them in time. AS
things turned out, death reaped har-
vest, million of dollars were lost and
tourists We're so effectually scared away
that they have never come back.
