o. b. & L. Co. q Work on the Front.

The waterfront is becoming more live
ly after the uncommon dullness of the
end of last week. The o. r. & l.. Co.
especially is preparing to do big bust
ness. Monday 10000 bags of sugar
were slowed in the makai warehouses
Of the railroad wharf, and when the
Californian comes in some time in the
end of this week, all this sugar will
have to be transferred to this big
steamer. AS the loading facilities of
this wharf are of a superior quality,
however, this work will probably be
completed in very short order Besides
the work of loading and unloading the
steamers, several sailing vessels are
now in port with lumber of various
kinds some of which will be used for
the construction of the new marine rail-
way, which the company is going to
build over by the slaughter house at
Iwilei. This railway is not to be used
for heavy vessels, its main purpose be-
ing to provide work for the large ma
chine shops of the company. 1t is in
tended to do light repairing work be-
sides the building of scows, lighters, etc.

German Lloyd May Come.

1t is rumored in shipping circles in
the Orient that within thirty days the
North German Lloyd Steamship Com
pany will have their vessels touching
this port 1t is said that the company
Is already advertising in Chinese pa
pers announcing its intention of run
ming a regular line from Chinese ports
via Japan and Honolulu to San Fran
cisco. This will give this company
what probably will be the longest line
in the world, as they already have
steamers running from Bremen to the
Orient. The report has been current
for year, but at that time nothing
came Of 1t. as the company had nc rail-
road connections in the States. Since
then, however. the Atchison, Topeka
and Santa Fe road has secured ter
minus in San Francisco. and II Is re-
ported that this line will connect with
the steamship company.

LErER ESCAPED.
A Cinnamon Gets Away From Kalihi
and 10 at Large.

When the steamer Lehua left this port
Monday afternoon she had only four
teen lepers on board, while she was to
have had fifteen. This was due to the
fact that the remaining one had escap-
ed while in detention in Kalihi. The
superintendent of the leper settlement
at Kalaupapa, Mr.. Reynolds, stated
however that he had no doubt that the
man would be captured very soon.
The escaped leper, who was not very
bad case, though ne had some rather
ugly leprous sores, was Chinaman,
and as Chinese generally very much OBJ
ject to being held by the authorities In
any case, the man was closely watched.
The lepers were all congregated in an
enclosed yard with high board fence
around 1t, and as he probably saw the
hopelessness Of an attempt Of escape
during the day he waited TN the sup
per call was made. The guard. thinking

Woodpeckers for Hawaii.

Wray Taylor Commissioner Of Agri-
culture, is figuring on the introduction
of woodpeckers into the Hawaiian ISL
ands. He believes that they would do
much to decrease the number Of boring
insects, which are such a source Of dam
age to the forest trees here.
The species sought to be introduced
is the downy wood-pecker, which Is
native to California and which can cas-
lily be brought here.
Commissioner Taylor will forward a
letter to the agricultural department at
Washington on the Mariposa for an
opinion, before he takes further action.

FOR CARRYING HALLS.

Postmaster General Charles Emory
Smith has issued an advertisement in
pamphlet form, covering the mail-carry-
ing system by steamers and star routes
in these islands. Hawaii is the fourth
division of the United States mail serv-
ice. The mail contracts for the routes
which have been made up to the present
time by MIR. Carr are only for the re-
mainder of the four-year period, which
ends June 80, 1902. The pamphlet gives
the amount of bonds necessary for the
steamer and star routes, these bonds in
every case being at least nifty per cent
higher than at the present time. The
new routes will have to give bonds in
the same proportion.
Way ports will be included besides the
termini, which are specified in the fol-
lowing, but they will not have delivery
at such small intervals. This will be
different, however, where mail is brought
by irregular mail vessels. The various
termini of the mail routes are as fol-
lows:
Hama to Kaupo, once a week; Hilo to
Kapoho, once a week; Hilo to Laupa-
hoehoe, six times a week; Holualoa to
Kailua. about five times a week; Ho-
nokaa to Laupahoehoe, three times a

lar intervals; Honolulu to Kalaupapa.

THE PHIL SOPHERS OF t,ILO
TALK OF CURRENT AFFAIRS

II would like to know where this
squabble in Honolulu is going to end"
remarked the Cheerful Liar. There's
Judge Humphreys in Washington
charging the Dole Government with
corruption: that is, If the blackboard
message is correct. Just what he means
by corruption is more than I can find
out. If he means that the officials have
been crooked with finances, or that they
have accepted brides for favors done or
to be done, l think he is in error. The
Dole Government from It's inception
may have been weak in some respects,
but / do not see how it can be charged
with crookedness and the charges stand.
l have never been a strong supporter
of the Government for the reason that
it is the child of the overthrow of the
monarchy, and my opposition to 1t is
mainly on account of the methods
adopted to accomplish the end. But
you may go back to the very begin
ming and l viii ask any of you where
men of such integrity as constituted
the Provisional Government and the
Republic could be found to give up
their business for State matters? They
have not been boodlers in any sense.
nor have they been generally extrava-
giant in the administration of the af-
fairs. There may be instances, of
course, where economy could have been
practiced, but this is only In isolated
cases. A charge of corruption is serious
enough to demand a close investigation,
and if it is made am sure the Govern
ment will be indicated. Possibly
Judge Humphreys refers to favoritism
in some cases. If that is what he means
it is probable the skirts of the officials
may be soiled trifie."
"And he may not have said anything
resembling corruption" said the Early
Riser. II cannot believe, everything
that goes into the newspapers. For in
stance: A month or two ago he was
quoted as damning the sugar planters
and attempting to injure the sugar in
dustry. One interview of his implied
that the Porto Rican in Hawaii was
in a condition similar to that of the
reconcentrado of Cuba during the Wey-
Ter regime. l cannot believe that Judge
Humphreys was correctly quoted in
that statement, and If he was he was
mistaken. In my opinion the Porto
Ricans who have come here and worked
on the plantations for a month or two,
until they have fed up bit, are as
healthy looking as the average resident.
I'm not saying anything about them
as laborers; l am merely speaking Of
their appearance physically.
This is a new move of Judge Hum
phreys in charging corruption and one
that was not expected, consequently the
defense must be given time to answer
Attorney General Knox, in my opinion
has been so flooded with correspond
ence from men dssa tisfied with Pres
ident McKinley's appointments that ne
Is about sick of the whole business.
Some of those appointees feel that they
are about the only ones worth anything
and they keep writing Knox about It,.
l do not believe the officials of the Gov
eminent will be disturbed on a mere ex-
parte statement"

did not watch the Chinaman. and this
individual was not slow to see his
chance. He scaled the fence and dis
appeared before any one noticed II.
AS attempts of escape are generally
made during the night much attention
Is not paid to the prisoners during the
day, and as it was just dusk when the
Chinaman made his exit, it was some
little while before it was discovered
that he had gone. Search was imme-
diately made, but up to the departure
of the Lehua he had not yet been found.
