We have had a very fair allowance
of storm now, and should like let up.
The present north easter, while by no
means unprecedented is a rarity on ac-
count Of it's length of continuance. The
inter-island business has been serious
ly deranged, but that will easily be put
right in week or So. Districts facing
eastward and northward, however, will
have to wait some before they can get
their freight. The whole coast Of Ha-
makua will be storm bound. 1t will
also be practically impossible to land
goods at the settlement on Molokai.

deaf ear and what is far more to the
purpose they button up their pocket
books. There is no clearer answer to
the voice of the political charmer than
the closed pocket book
Under the most pressing Of circum-
stances a by-election is a difficult one
to bring forces into line, under the pc
culiar conditions at this time in the
Fourth District of the Territory. it will
be an almost impossible matter to get
the voters to the polls. Men see that
the seat is one which it is not worth
struggling for, and that if 1t were won,
and such an entirely improbable thing
were to occur as an extra session be-
tween April and November, the own
ing of the seat would have no palpa-
BILE effect upon legislation in the lower
house.
Clear through the regular and the
special session of the last legislature
the Republicans were in a hopeless mi
nority in the lower house, even with
| the late Mr.. Gildllan in his seat. They
were utterly unable to prevent the
house from overriding the Governors
veto. The sole hope of the property
| owners and commercial classes lay in
the Senate. These as long as the Re
publican minority kept it's solid pha-
lanx, the veto could not be overridden
and as a fact was upheld.
If this vacant seat were in the SEN
ate. then the party would have to &C
into the fight hard, in case of acct
dents, but it is not in the Senate. As
far as the veto is concerned at the
present time. even if the improbable
/ happened we have enough force to sup
port it, i'm the Senate and we never had
enough force in the lower house to sup
port it throughout the last two ses-
sions. Therefore we are no worse off
than we were before, even if a Home
Ruler were to occupy the seat. But a
compromise can be reached according
to Mr.. Wilson. The Home Rulers are
not particularly anxious to spend any
money either, and the seat might &C
by default of both parties.
The question which agitates some
minds is what would the Governor dc

Bishop Nichols VS.. Bishop Willis will
be the next ecclesiastical cause cele-
bre" Betting was in favor Of the
Britisher some weeks or so ago, but
those who know Bishop Nichols say he
is very whit as astute as the wiley
Willis. 1t will be a case Of Greek
meets Greek. Bishop Willis has one
or two little surprises and subterfuges
up his sleeve, that is well known but
even his powers are inadequate to
fight the whole American Episcopal
church, and it is very certain that the
American Episcopal Church does not
want Bishop Willis within its ranks.

since. but only knew in q general way
how IL should be cared for. The
question that presented itself to them
was what to do with the horse. On
the morning that they departed the
husband put nine feeds, which includ.
ed hay. oats and corn In the mangcr.
Then the scholar placed three buckets
of water in the stall. He figured that

Old ways.

Once upon time youth journeyed
from the country up to New York,
10 seek his fortune.
He wa. mindful Of his anecdotal
side. wishing to develop this symmet-
rically ns he went along; and, nc-
cordingly, instead of landing with u
dollar In his pocket, as the custom
then was. he landed with q dollar in
his boot.
Thus II happened. when the golden
opportunity came tho youth could not
get Mt his dollar until after the bot
tom had fallen out of the market, and
ne was not made rich beyond the
dreams OF avnrice.
So he became thoroughly dishcnrt.
