Judging from the Sample.

A Congressman who thought that one
of the great national parties was try
ing too hard to find an issue when
there was no issue in sight rebuked
his opponents by telling this story:
A client of mine has a large family,
and accordingly Is rather pressed for
money. He came to me joyfully one
day, declaring that he had found oil
flowing from a spring on his land. and
bringing me sample.
The bottle he brought was one which
he had picked up in hurry somewhere
about the house. I forwarded it to an
expert chemist, and my client and I
waited with good deal Of interest for
his report of the analysis. In a day
or two we got this telegram:
"F'ind no trace of oil. Your friend
has struck paregoric."

French Happy Home Broken Up.

A Partisan lady has been compelled
by the police to break up her happy
home, consisting of 20 hens, so cocks,
80 pigeons, goat, cats, s dogs, par
rot and a dozen small birds. Her
neighbors objected to being kept awake
all night by the cats and dogs, and to
being reused up at an unearthly hour
by the growing of the cocks.

The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1902-06-02

The Philippines are suffering from an
epidemic Of cholera, and the reports
show a steady increase, in spite Of all
the precautions that modern medical
science can take. The chances are that
cholera will increase as the summer
months continue ana that the disease
will be at its worst in July and August
In Manila, up to date, there had been
11OS cases and $3.50 deaths, while in the
Provinces 1892 cases had been reported
and 1904 deaths, making a total of A.
200 cases and 1880 deaths, or in other
words Is per cent Of the cases have
proved fatal, which is a very terrible
number. 1t is to be hoped our health
authorities, federal and territorial, will
take the greatest care against the in
PRODUCTION Of the disease here. We
have had one bout Of cholera here, and
j, proved very costly.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1902-06-02

The after glow and the morning glow
before sunrise, which have not been
very noticeable for a week past are
again i'm evidence. The morning glow
this morning was exceptionally bril-
liant. The scientists of Honolulu should
give an explanation of why there came
a hiatus. Several think that the first
blow-up of Mount Pelee did not send so
very much disintegrated solid matter
into the upper air but that the second
outbreak is throwing up volcanic dust
in much greater quantities. More de-
tailed accounts are, however, necessary
before a plausible theory can be proper
" built up.

STILL WATERS.

The political boomers are oht and
the aspirants for Legislative honors are
beginning to hustle round and see to
their chances The Home Rulers are
devoting more attention apparently
than the other parties. A certain por-
ton of the Democratic party has gone
over to Home Rule, while the main
body will go Republican, as was shown
by the vote when Harris r. beat Drer
II. r.. and d at the by election. The
clear thinking Democrats who did not
want a repetition of such a Legislature
as we had in 1901, threw their votes for
the Republican candidate, and will I'M
doubtedIy do so again.
AS has been frequently pointed out
men like Bush, and Wise are not really
Democrats. They posed as Democrats
at the last election, but they were in
reality Home, Bulers They were and
hoped to be Home Rule Democrats, but
they are quite ready to be Home Rule
Republicans. or Home, Rule Populists or
any old thing SO long as they can get
into the Legislature, They are ready to
take the name Of any party in the
United States, and are utterly ignorant
of the principles upon which the parties
are founded and equally ignorant Of
the main issues which divide the par
ties as Mr.. Wise was about the silver
question when he gave the casting vote
for 16 to 1 and helped to bury the De-
mocratic Party. Strange how small a
thing may bring about a monstrous
event
But if the Republican party on these
islands is not shouting yet, it is work
ing hard and there will be very aft
ferent sort OF a campaign from what
was carried on at last election. The
Republican party is infinitely stronger
than it was then. There will be far
more voters and the majority of new
voters are Republicans as far as this
Territory is concerned. Moreover
there are those who voted with the
Home Rulers last time, who see their
error and will vote Republican this
time. The by-election was a signal as
TO what may be expected at the coming
election. The Republicans have taken
for their motto Still waters run deep
and it will only be when the election is
over. that the Home Rulers will realize
the amount of work which has been
quietly and successfully done.

The celebration Of the Rev. Serene
and Mrs. Bishops Golden wedding was
a success. The--tiftieth anniversary of
a wedding is a rare thing in a COM
munity. The last occasion of such a
celebration, as far as the writer can re-
member was that of Rev. and Mrs.
Lowell Smith, parents of Mrs. B. f.
Dillingham;. Mr.. Smith was for many
years pastor of the old Kaumakapili
church, the forerunner of the more pre-
tentious building which was destroyed
in the Chinatown fire. The anniversary
celebrated Saturday is the first among
the generation of missionary families
born in the Islands.

A second cable would give a second
string to the Geographic bow.
Colonel Allen does not seem to be
very enthusiastic about wireless tele-
graphy. though he acknowledges that
if wireless teleEraphy is all that It
claims to be, the position of the ISL
ands towards one another is ideal. He
points out fatal defect in wireless
biography and thit is the difficulty Of
sending code messages which are in
dispensable in business transactions OF
course Colonel Allen being a man en-
gagged in Geographic and cable work is
apt to be prejudiced against wireless
telegraphy. He says it is all very well
for signalling from ships at sea to the
shore and vice versa, but he has little
to say in it's favor where land wires can
be put up or cables can be laid. The
instalment of cable between the islands
Colonel Allen says would be a mere
bagatelle for the Mackay cable COM
pany, and would only be a matter of a
few days.
of inter-island telegraphic communica-
ton in the Philippines. Between any
two islands the cost is two cents a word
beyond that distance four cents a word
and for newspaper the rates are cut in
half. Thus according to these rates a
message from Hawaii to any Honolulu
newspaper would take four cents for
the address, and a message of forty
eight words would take up the change
in a dollar. From any part of Maui,
there would be two cents for address
and ninety-eight words in the message
all for dollar. Communication by
wireless telegraphy between the islands
has, up to the present been very much
more costly than this. But when we
have the Mackay cable, the interisland
rates will be settled by that company
and not by the local company.
