NO MALIHINI WANTED.

And there again, Deacon Testa has
made another "freakish break" 1t
seems that the Advertiser and it's
Taylor reporter can never let slip an
occasion whereby to make him look
silly and foolish. Did it expect that
Mr.. Tesla as delegate to the Protest
ant Episcopal Convention, not the An
unbeknown to him and to the congre-
cation he represents? Mr.. Testa has
nothing whatever against Mr.. Henry
e. Highton, the gentleman nominated
by the Bishop of Honolulu as chancel-
lor, and he truly said that he was
averse to voting for "malihini' with
out knowing who he is or whether he
has consented to accept the position,
for the Bishop stated that he had not
seen him about it, nor does he know
whether he will accept. And further,
Mr.. Testa wished to hold it over to this
evenings meeting, but the point of TAX
ing time was gained by the Bishops
withdrawal of the gentleman's name,
whom we understand is devout
churchman and communicate. Being
acceptable to the Bishop, the respon-
sibility will lay with him, as he stated
TO the Convocation that he has known
him for twenty years, even ii Mr.. Tes'
Ia should not vote for him on account
of his being "malihini," unless in the
meantime the name of some "kama-
alma be proposed TO the Bishop, who
asked for it last night. Knowing Mr..
Testa as we'll as we do, he may yet
confirm the Bishops first ehoice
should the same be again put forward.

of the natives, defamers of the people,
barterers of our independence and de-
stroyers of our nationality. Instead
of emancipating us from thralldom
and of elevating us to higher concep-
ton of civilization, it is now forcing
us to submission by oppression, coerc
ion, intimidation and so on, in the same
way it did us up since the overthrow
and when they managed to get on top

We are most sorry to learn that the
Rev. Canon Kitcat has rendered his
resignation to the Bishop of Honolulu
and has been accepted in return. In
him we have always found friend, an
adviser and comforter. Although
somewhat in advance of his departure
we can offer him our best wishes, and
to quote the Bishops words, we hope
that he and his may be blessed, pre-.
served and prospered" in his new field
of labor in the cause of the church and
in among those of his own class of
people. We feel quite sure and GER
tain that the most hearty good wish
es" of the many who know him will
follow him wherever he may choose to
cast his lot and that he will be greatly
missed among us, a gap that will be a
hard matter to acceptably fill for many
long day, but that duty devolves up
on the Bishops shoulders who may
yet be able to find some one to fill the
vacancy.

RECoGNITloE DUE.

During the campaign just passed,
one of the strongest and most strenu-
Gus arguments used on the stump by
our young princely friend and Repub-
lican expounder, who since has become
our Delegate-elect and since called by
us as Citizen Jonah, instead OF Prince
Cupid, was his jealousy of his color.
He informed the people (native Ha-
waiians) that while on his foreign
travels he was twice insulted by white
men on account of his color and he
strenuously resented the soft impeach-
ment and accusation in a manly way,
and in one known instance, he was
jailed, tried and fined, and at the same
time he was called a brute for resent
ing the brutal insults of those low
beasts under white skins. Being Ha-
waian ourselves we admired him for
il, and will always hold his conduct as
being worthy of admiration and emu
lation, for therein he showed the stuff
that was in him, his latent jealousy
for the color of his skin, and his abil-
ity to Withstand and rebuke such in
suits to him and his people. He
thereby displayed, in such a man fash
ion manner that he was true son OF
the Hawaii soil, boy after our choice
and man after our heart of hearts.
When he became impressed into the
Republican party, a choice that he
made for himself without consultation
with his best friends, admirers and
well-wishers, we felt sorry for him,
for when he deserted his people, those
of his own blood and color we could
not support him. One main reason OF
our opposing him was that the party he
allied himself with was not Hawaii
an party or the party of his people,
although such party on the Mainland
fought for the emancipation of the ne
gro race who were slaves within its
