Gil. Aid. Anderson he'd that he was.
So did the ciry attorney. Tie latter
was asked by Aid. Andrews to pro
duce his authority. So he went into
the mayors Office and brought out an
armful of law books, several chapters
from which were read to convince the
Third ward alderman that he was in
error. The mayor, the attorney
showed, had right to cast the dc
Gliding vote in case of tie.
Telephone Men Heard.
As a windup to the meeting the
visiting telephone men were allowed
five minutes each to explain their
position to the council. This was at
the suggestion of Aid. Kennedy. who
was turned down by the mayor ear
lier in the evening when he asked
that they he given hearing, the
mayor making the statement that he
did not care to listen to any more
telephone arguments. Those who
spoke were Mr. Cotton, the secretary

elabora,ed upon the growth of the in

never had been. Col. w. S. Thomas,
OF the Illinois Independent company,

that his company had the capital to

THOROUGHLY UNSATISFACTORY.

The postofIice is no longer terri
torial or local institution, and a good
many people are very sorry that it is
not. When the postofice was man
aged by the local authorities, it was
a fairly satisfactory institution. At
the present time it is anything but a
satisfactory institution. The distribu-
ton of mails is delayed as it never
was before. We are slower in getting
even our letter mail than ever we We're
before, and as for newspaper mail why
we get it when it suits the naughty
federal officials.
This does not refer only to the for
eign mail, it is just as true of the ISL
and mail. The slowness of distribu-
ton is as noticeable over the Island
mail as it is over the foreign mail. Be
ing so far from the main seat of gov
eminent, it may be that the Hawai-
ian postofIice employees think that they
can comfortably go to sleep, but Uncle
Sam does not believe in sleeping, and
he will undoubtedly stir up the dry
bones when the matter is brought to
his notice
When we had annexation it was one
of the understood things that the pos
tai system should be improved. We
were told that our system was out of
date, and that we should have a COM
plete up-to-date system. We were
promised a house to house delivery,
but that has not materialized nor have
the numbers materialized on any OF
the by-streets. But the average house
holder would be quite content to dc
without a house to house delivery, il
he could only get his letters and pa
pers put into his box at the postOfiice
He is quite content to go down there
several times a day, if he only has some
assurance that the officials will put
the mail in the box and not in some
ones else box.
Where the trouble in the pOstoffice
comes one cannot say. The postoffice
used to be satisfactory, it is absolutely
unsatisfactory now. 1t may be true
that we cannot get redress unless we
appeal to Washington, but if that APP
peal is made, it will be apt to make
for those in local charge to take a
BRACE and put matters upon a better
basis than they are now AS things
are now in the postofice they are most
unsatisfactory to everyone who has
dealings with it

1t is a pity to see in the early stages
of the first Territorial Legislature a
lowering of tone and tendency towards
the style of some western Legislatures
on the mainland. Hawaii is no new
place. 1t has been running its own af-
fairs, and producing capable public
men when the very sand was untrod-
den from which men come here and
tell us how and why to carry on our
government.
The Hawaiian has always understood
the necessities of government, he has
always understood the dignity of gov
eminent Whenever there has been an
undignitied proceeding he has resented
it, if it was in his power. The nature
of the Hawaiian is dignified He may
unbend, all unbend at times, he may
deteriorate, but the true Hawaiian,
with chief blood, remains a thorough
dignifed gentleman. the equal of the
gentlemen of any other nationality.
The civilization may not be the same,
the manners may not be the same, but
the innate idea of gentlemanly feeling
anu VI nOilOI II inc SdllltB whether NhN
gentleman is American, European, Ha-
waiian, Filipino, japanese or Chinese
A gentleman is a gentleman no matter
what his nationality.
The remarks above are called forth
by an apparent tendency in the Legis-
lature to lower the tone of that body.
A low tone is what people outside of
the Islands expect. A high tone is
what the true believers in Hawaii are
sure of. There must be no lowering of
our legislative tone. There should be
no use of undignihed language, or
words which, if used elsewhere, would
be forcibly resented. The Star breaches
no sermon, but it speaks from its
heart. The Territory is everything to
The Star, and it desires the dignity and
worth of the Territory to be shown in
the Legislative Assembly.

THE SETTLEMENT.

The Legislature, as a body, has de-
cided to go to Molokai and visit the
Settlement. There could not be bet
ter move if the Legislative people will
only plan out their work, before they
go. There are many things to be look
ed after at the Settlement, and these
should be attended to by committees.
The men wandering round and looking
here and looking there, though it will
be of individual advantage, will not be
of aggregate advantage.
There has been always, a consider
able amount of discomfort at the Set
Element. 1t was justifiable at one time
Whether it is justifable now or not
is a question for Investigation. This
investigation the Legislature proposes
to make. But it must be evident that
a visit to the Settlement, extending
over few hours cannot give the in
formation which is required That re-
quires considerable investigation, but
the clues will undoubtedly be found in
Molokai.
Whether rightfully or not, the Set
the matter of the poi supply The Star
has had a considerable number of COM
munications upon the subject Some
of them have been signed, and have
seen the light of publication. Many have
been anonymous and have therefore
been consigned to the waste-paper
basket. But enough has been develop
ed to show an unbiased outsider that
there was need of investigation. If
there was nothing in the complaints,
they should be summarly squeched
If there was anything in them they
should be attended to by the proper
authorities. 1t is very easy to make
complaints. 1t is by no means as easy
to prove them, and this even where
there is just cause for the criticism.
The Legislative visit to Molokai is
likely to result in great good to the
Settlement and to the country at large
1t may put an end TO complains which
are unjustfied and unjustifable.

CHINESE THOUGHTS.

The Chinese question is becoming
more and more serious as time goes
on. The occupation Of Peking, even for
the length of time that has elapsed
has had no effect upon the mass of
the Chinese population. a large or in
fact the majority of the population of
China has a firm belief that the bar
barian has been defeated, and that it
is only the magnamity Of the Emperor
and the Empress that these miser-
able terrestrial worms are allowed to
winter in Picking. How is any power
going to impress this mass of 4OO, 900 600
of people?
If the Chinese are not impressed with
the force of the Western powers, they
will become aggressive, and Chinese
aggressiVeness threatens Asia first, and
Europe next, 1t is not the first time
in the worlds history that western
civilization has been threatened from
the East. Because we have had no
recent demonstration, it by no means
goes to prove that such a wave will
not come again. In Siberia even up to
the present time there is a feeling that
the Tartars may rise, and thirty years
or so ago it was a very present fear.
China will not roll seward, but Chi
ma can roll inland. What are the sea-
going nations of the earth going to
accomplish on Chinas seaboard? Let
the Chinese destroy their ports, devas-
tate the country for fifty miles inland,
and where will any military or naval
power be? One can understand the
position of Russia in the present crisis
because Russia probably realizes what
a deluge is coming upon her borders,
IL the Chinese give up the hope of keep
ing the Barbarian from the Pacific
side.
The Chinese question is going to be
the most serious of the opening years
of the century. And the difficulty is
that no one thoroughly understands it,
The man who can ehcidate the Chi
nese difficulty has to be found, if he
has not to be born. We may think
we understand Chinese who are in
constant association with us, but we
do not understand them. The Chinese,
like any other Asiatic, is inscrutable
TO the European or American. When
the Chinese is the under dog, there is
none so humble. Let him become the
upper dog, and there is none so exact
ing and, if power enough is given, so
cruel,

more essential than dignity. There can
be nothing more important for our

New-York tribune., 1901-12-31
A GOOD RJDDANCE.

To-day ends one of the worst municipal ad-
mnistratons with which NewYork was ever
cursed. 1t might be perfectly safe to omit the
qualification and call it the worst but modera-
ton in all things is usually advisable On Janu-
airy ]. 1898. Tammany came back TO power with
more than its customary insoence of spirit and
demeanor. iubilant in the assurance Of a four
years tenure. and expecting to fortify itself
during that period through patronage and cor
ruption beyond the possibility of ejectment It
returned boasting that reform was a failure.
that the people liked the sort Of government
they had been accustomed to before the Strong
interregnum, and could depend on thorough
going resumption of the old order of things in
Manhattan, with a prompt extension thereof
over all the boroughs of the newly consolidated
city. The temper of the restored dynasty was
accurately illustrated by the audacous impu-
dence with which Mayor Van Wyck repelled
the official courteses offered TO him by his
predecessor. Tammany meant to have it fully
understood from the outset that it owned the
city and intended to use its possession for all
1t was worth to the organization.
The four years debauch is over and those
who have enjoyed it most go back to private
life. some of them with ample means to live at
their ease, others in the gloomy expectation of
d
ishing the hope that the new administration
will not succeed in the gigantic task it has un-
dertaken will gradually forfeit the good opinion
of the community and thus clear the way for
another revolution two years hence. There is
no indication In any quarter that the men who
have betrayed the interests they were sworn
to protect are experiencing any other kind Of
remorse than that which has been defined as a
humiliating sense of defeat They feel that
they are in hard luck and that is all Selfre-
proach except perhaps for errors of tactics Is
as far as possible from their thoughts. They
may concede among themselves, for example,
that Deyerys extreme manifestations of black
guardism ought to have been checked and that
Croker's periods of residence on his English
estate were too long; but of repentance or any
respectable wish that the burdens of govern
ment may be reduced by their successors and it's
efficiency increased they do not betray sign.
The public business has been left in wretched
condition. Mayor Low and his colleagues will be
greatly hampered in consequence, and it is not
improbable that dissatisfaction will arise as
time passes without a complete fulilment of
extravagant expectations. But on this last day
of the old year and the old order the prevailing
sentiment is Of JOY and pride in the con-
sciousness that New-York has escaped from a
conspiracy of plunder and ruffianism, and is to
be governed, for the next two years at least by
intelligent and honorable men,
