NEW SONGS OF
HAWAII mel

The four new Hawaiian songs, the
words and music of which were COM
posed by Mrs. Emma Alexandria Kala-
nikauikaalaneo observation-disclosures
de Fries, and arranged by Captain Ber-
ger, were greeted with cordial\and re-
peated applause last night by the
crowds assembled on the lanais and in
the grounds of the Hawaiian Hotel.
Mrs. de Fries entertained a large
number of guests on the large front la
mai of the hotel during the concert, re-
freshments being served and each guest
being decorated with lei. Among the
guests invited was Queen Liliuokalani,
who. however, was not present, having
sent her regrets by party of repre-
sentatives. Henry Kauauanuiawahi de
Fries, Mrs. de Fries husband. assisted
In receiving and serving the guests.
The four new songs are "Kukilakila,
Wal Kaahuula," "Kiliolani' and LII
holiho," and were very pretty as sung
by Miss J. Keliiaa and Mrs. ". Alapai
ments and congratulations on her COM
positions, and the cordial and continued
applause with which each was received
by the large audience demonstrated the

to issue the bonds except for a specific

asked the Legislature to pass a loan

the fact that there should be legisla

issued.
Ii is impossible to believe that any

that bonds which We're provided for

An obliquty of mental vision is neces-

HOMESTEAD LEASES.

The disposition of the lands of IN"
Territory is matter which will fur a
long time to come engage the best at
tention Of the, men of affairs of the
community. There have been many
varieties Of plans for the proper distri-
button of these lands offered in the
past, and there will be as many in the
future, but there seems to be none
which will tit the conditions here as
well as the old laws, which provide for
homestead leases and purchase leases
as well.
Now as never before the valu" Of the
homestead lease is apparent The rec
ordS show that since the framing of the
present laws of the Territory there
has been a constant demand for the
homestead leases. This Is taken by tn"
officials of this office to mean that
| there will be even more of this class of
leases sought in the future, as the peo-
pie OF the land see that they must take
advantage of their opportunity unless
| they would see the chance pass from
them. 1t will not be always that it
will be possible to gain homes for the
asking and a living on them. This will
pass as the settlers are taking up the
lands. With earnings of 81 200 IA year
in addition to Il home and the neces-
sary fruits and vegetables, there should
he more applicants for the lands than
| there are acres to be taken up.
| The effect of the following of this
policy upon the estates which are kept
! together by the sugar trade will be
watched with interest The plan OF
| having the cane cultivated by a hui or
! by individual farmers has been oX-
/ perimented with in the past, and in
some places with good results. What
! would be the effect of having the land
| owned in fee by the men who are to
farm it is II question which may have n
great effect upon the future of this in
! dustry. That there are difficulties in
| the way is apparent from the fact that
there could be little chance for a party
of settlers to go into the business of ir-
! rigation and pumping on as large a
scale as the plantations do at this time.
/ on other lands. where the rainfall Is
! sufficient for the irrigation of the crop
there may be different results expected,
for where the plantation men will take
care Of the proper grinding of the cane
there is no question that it may be
raised by the individual profitably. The
move in so far as IL provides for the
home making of the Hawaiian, is To be
commended.

Judge Wilcox's decision was correct
under the law as 1t stands. But the
fact remains that hares and rabbit; are
kept for sale here and that they are
not only distributed as pets but appear
on the menu of local eating houses
There can be no objection TO the res
taurant acquisitions. for the more of th'

ROYAL VISITORS.

The King Of Siam would be an inter-
esting guest for the United States, a
country which has never, except IN
two occasions, entertained a rolgnins
sovereign. Kalakaua was the first ac
tual King the great Republic ever saw
and the democratic Dom Pedro was the
second and last. Scions of royalty have
often wandered among the Yankees.
Joseph Bonaparte, eX-king of Sraln,
spent many years in New Jersey after
the downfall of the frs: French empire.
His young brother, Jerome, afterwards
King of Westphalia, married Miss Pat
terson of Baltimore while visiting there.
The Duke of Orleans, afterwards King
Louis Philippe, was in American exile,
and so was Louis Napoleon, afterwards
Emperor of the French. Most notable
of all our princely guests was the pres
ent King of Great Britain and Ireland,
who was a visitor just before the Civil
War During the rebellion two of the
Bourbon princes of France one of them
the pretender to the throne, served on
: the staff of General Mcclellan. No
member of a sovereign family came
again until the seventies, when the
Grand Duke Alexis visited the Atlantic
| coast There was a long wait after
that save for the presence of Kalakaua
and Dom Pedro, which was terminated
in 1892 by the coming of the Infants

wall an American voting franchise. AT
present this is the only part of the
Union where the ability to read and
write foreign language is named
among the qualifcations of suffrage.
Such a law Is. alien to the American
idea and was the means of giving Ha-
wall an anti-American Legislature. The
leaders of the Republican party are be-
ginning to see that expansion will be
failure in these parts unless the Ameri-
can plan of voting is adopted in its EN-
tirety. To let things go as they are is
to foist the onhs of misrule here upon
