CORRESPONDENCE
Advice ON Kissing.

Ed. The INDEPENDENT:
The papers say the Bord of
Health has put tabu on the haole
custom of kissing with the lips.
The Bord say to use csrbolic water
sweet with rose smell to disinfect
before and after kissing. I think
tn, too bad, it will spoil the kiss
kissing must be sudden or it is no
good. Still the Bord says kissing is
dangerous and as our kahunas do
in old times put condition tabu
on it.
Now Wakea the Ancestor OF all
kanakas made many rules for the
people. The old man knew a thing
or two, and he laid down rule that
lovers should rub noses and not
smack on the lips when kissing.
If young people will rub noses and
not smack the lips when kissing,
it will save the worry about carry
ing carbolic water to disinfect the
kiss with and you don't miss your
good time when you have not your
carbolic water.
Yours for good of all,
KAHIKO.

TOPICS OF THE DAY.

Is it really necessary to ask peo-
pie who desire to apply for positions
under the civil service of the United
States, a lot of questions absolute
ly irrevelant to the work expected
to be performed by them. A man
may be very good and honest mail
carrier, without knowing much of
the geography pertaining to Spain
or Greece. We have known of
efficient officials in the Custom
House who had forgotten the first
rules Of higher algebra and didn't
know a logarithim from a stove
And yet the work went on to the
satisfaction of all concerned. We
have no doubt that the Board of
Examiners is composed of the
wisest men in the world and yet
we are willing to bet that we could
ask the learned gentlemen more
questions in regard to "oivil SER
vice" than any one of them can
answer until an Encyclopedias has
been consulted. The civil service
examination is humbug pure and
simple.

The lenient punishment meeted
out to sailors who deserted their
posts in time of peril and VIII
deserted their ship W. hen at fire, has
been a surprise to all who know
Judge Estee and considered him a
judge OF great merits and noble SEN
timents. The Bryant was on fire
and four sailors basely left her
when their help was needed. We
leave the question of arson aside
but we think that the men should
have been given the maximum OF
the penalty prescribed by law.
Judge Fstee, however, seemed to
sympathize with the wretches and
sentenced Hanson and Forst to six
ty days imprisonment each, and
Schraeder to three months and
Reed to thirty days. What would
Mr.. Estee have said when through
the neglect and refusal to work OF
these men the vessels in port, the
docks and merchandise stored had

AN EXTRA SESSION.

We have heard a great deal for
and against an extra session of the
Legislature. The following dis.
patch simply shows the absolute
necessity of calling an extra session
and pass measures providing for the
raising of money. Should the
numerous governors now in control
refuse to do so we think that good
reasons arise for their removal. The
dispatch reads:
WASHINGTON, August SIT de-
veloped today that the Governor OF
Hawaii has twice proposed the issue
of bonds to effect needed public i'm
provements. The Secretary of the
Interior on both occasions declined
to entertain the plan. Governor
Dole first requested on June 4th the
approval of the President for pro-
posed issue of an unstated amount
of so-called Hawaiian treasury notes
under Act 79 of the provisional Ha-
waiian Government, q part OF the
civil laws of Hawaii in 1897. The
object was to procure temporary
loan to replenish the Territorial
treasury. Secretary Hitchcock re-
piled that the fact that the amount
was neither stated nor estima ated
was of itself sufficient objection.
"The Governor had enclosed an
opinion of the Territorial Attorney
General, which the Secretary, in
his reply declining to take up the
plan. says does not directly express
the opinion that the proposed in
debtedness can be- lawfully incurred
under existing laws. He iuclosed a
certified copy OF Act II of the laws
of 1896, providing for loan of $2,-
100000, and statements of the
Treasurer showing that there re-
main unissued bonds amounting to
$799, 900 authorized by the act; that
the assessed value of the Territory
is $97, 1894, ,l04, aud that the out
standing bonded indebtedness after
payment. will be $4,000. The
Governor then recommends the is
suance of territorial bonds for $780,
600, chargeable on the general re-
venues of the Territory, but not on
the credit OF the public domain, to
be redeemable in not less than FIVE
years, payable in not more than
fifteen years from date Of issue, pro-
yided that the Territorial Legisla-
ture shall pass the necessary appro-
priating bill providing for the ex-
psnditures set forth in section 55 in
the territorial act.
"The Secretary of the Interior, in
his latest reply, says that new legis-
lation is indispensable to the bond
cd issue, and that the Governor has
not indicated that such legislation
has been had, nor can it safely be
anticipated"
