and nothing but the truth. 1t ia
the same old story yet, and glance
over the hooks OF the Registrars
office will show mortgages can
celled, lands conveyed in unusual
numbers, aud other transactions,
which show the Willingness OF our
missionaries to financially help their
Hawaiian brethren, who had a,vote
in the Legislature, We could a
tale unfold but it is stale history
now, only brought up in the "Tiser,"
when Castle aud Thurston get q
spasm Of political virtue and dream
pleasantly that their politic-
al machinations have gone in
to oblivion by their tearing up !. o.
US aud unsecured notes with the
autographs of the Hon. members
for such and such district. Gentle
men, take good advice, from one
who knows: "Let sleeping dogs lie
still, although they sleep,their teeth
are all right yet and they bite hard"

Not day goes. by without the
Thurston organ refers to " a respon'
ponsible voting majority" Look
ing over the political history of
Hawaii during the past twenty
years, we notice that at all times has
the missionary minority set up the
plaintiye howl about "a responsible
voting majority" which to them,
means a franchise restricted to all
except the whites aud Hawaiian
Sunday school teachers. The haoles
who now talk about responsible
voters" have been more than willing
in days gone by, to buy the votes OF
the Hawaiians or, il possibly, bull
doing and threatening the Ha-
waiians to vote for the white party 3
candidate. When that method Jbe.
came too costly the good mission
aries abandoned the corrupt
tactics'-of the Hawaiian voters,
who Away had learned to &C.
cept the bribes, which the good
Christian missionaries pressed
npon them, and they confined them
selves to advancing "loans" to mem
bers OF the Legislature, who we're
expected to help some pet measure
through or to defeat some bill,
which didn't agree with the fuan-
cial digestion of the saccharine
barons. The less the Advertiser
says about corruption in the Ha-
waiian Legislatures, the better will
it be for the moral men who own
the paper and who played such a
great part in former Legislatures,
where perhaps corruption existed
and could yet be proyen--if the
men behind the Advertiser for q
change would tell the whole truth

We hope that we have explained
our contention and position plain
enough for the morning secular or
gau and it's partisans to see. What
else can Bishop Willis be but be the
frst Bishop of the Protestant Epis-
copal Church in these Islands. The
rendering Of his resignation to Cam
terbury was only matter OF form
and courtesy. And as far as all are
concerned, there is nothing else to
do but to submit to the inevitable
which has occurred in the Chnrch, /,
as we'll as in the State, in these ISL
ands, but on very different lines, the
State unwilling and the Church
willing, ~

amended, to 80 conform to the
ideas OF the Protestant Episcopal
Church in the United States of
America, which amendment was
duly passed upon by the Synod and
approved by the Trustees, the.
government was petitioned to and
the Charter as amended was granted
and signed by "Wm. h. Wright.
Treasurer OF the Territory OF Ha.
waii," dated the 18th instant, aud
duly approved by Governor Dole.
Then Bishop Willis, after swearing
allegiance to the American Church,
naturally, practically, virtually and
emphatically became the Bishop of
the Protestant Episcopal Church in
the Hawaiian Islands under the
charter as hereinabove set forth.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1902-01-27

Be it remembered that the See OF
Honolulu was an independent one,
being free to act as it chose best,
and only referred to Canterbury by
way ofcourtssy, the Bishop having
received his authority from there.
As ii 9 then government was an in
dependent monarchy, the, Church
was also Independent, although de-
irving it's power from the mother
Church of England. The Church
here having thought that it was to
its interest to be of the Church in
America, 80 it has become part OF
the American branch OF tho Angli-
can Church by action taken at the
last Diocesan Synod.

NO "coms,Ns" IN FARMING

The Census Bureau has just got to-
gether it's figures showing the condition
of the great agricultural interest
of the country in 1900, and it shows that
in this greatest of all industries, the
basis of all our life and activity, there
are no combinations or trusts, and can
be none. The number of farms increased
in ten years at higher rate than popu-
lation, and the average size is 146 acres,
or less than quarter section of govern,
ment land.
There are $40, 900 farms in the coun-
try, valued at Sl6,675, 100000. Here is
a huge capital scattered all over the land
and held by millions of owners, all in
dependent of each other and competing
for an honest living, while providing
food and materials for those engaged in
other industries. The products in the
year 1899, including those derived from
animals, were valued at 81, ,740, 100000
There is no concentration of wealth in
this and no chance for monopolies.
There is not even tendency in that
direction, and the mild alarm raised a
few years ago about great corporation
farms and an agricultural tenantry has
been dissipated by experience, as many
other alarms are destined to be. Among
an intelligent and energetic people like
Americans the few are never going to
control the many-Mail and Express.

hanging to the edge OF the
hillside. at another walled In
on either hand by rocks covered with
fern and bracken, to whose jagged and
broken surface whereon purples,
greens and browns seemed to absorb
themselves into each other-there clung
the yellow agrimony and climbing rose,
with its sweet bloom full Of restless,
murmuring bees.
Sometimes the path lost itself in

"You can't keep up farm without
keeping cattle" This was the conclu-
sion of a man who has spent consider
able time and money trying to get along
without cattle. He sold off his stock
and depended on manure bought in the
village. three or four miles away, and on
commercial fertilizer. We used to see
him from early spring till time to get in
the crops toiling up the road with his
heavy loads of manure to be scattered
about his farm. Most of his land was
at that time devoted to gardening. Then
after the garden began to produce we
saw him plodding through the mud and
wind and storm, all kinds of weather,
trying to dispose of his stuff. A few
years of that kind of life satisfied this
man. He bought back the cows and
settled down to general farming, making
the sage remark given above.

There is lots of speculation over wha,
the consumption of white oleo will
be under the law that went into force
July /, placing tax of ten cents q
pound on the stuff colored in imitation
of yellow butter. Manufacturers ap
pear to take that tax as prohibitive OF
the putting of the yellow article on the
market. We predict that here in the
Eastern states very few people will take
white oleo for use as substitute fol
butter. The great proportion of oul
people are good livers, and even "board
ing house fare" will not take to white
oleo without protest.
