When You Have a Cold.

The first action when you have a
cold should be to relieve the lungs.
This is best accomplished by the free
use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
This Remedy liquefies the tough mu.
Gus and causes its expulsion from the
air cells of the lungs. produces a free
expectoration. and opens the secre.
tions. A complete cure soon follows.
This remedy will cure a severe cold
in less time than any other treatment
and it leaves the system in a natural
and healthy condition. It counteracts
any tendency toward pneumonia. For
sale by all druggists.

Maui County was ushered in with
much pomp and ceremony on the 4th
instant, and amidst the prayers of
those who would have others believe
that they are other than sycophantic
hypocrites, so we learn through prl-
vate source. Yesterdays Bulletin con.
tanned full account of the event from
Its Wailuku correspondent and there
IN may be seen the serious and humor-
GUS sides of that ominous and momen-
tous incident in the affairs of that
island 1t is noticeable that in certain
instances, Republicans have been an
poineed TO Office, on similar lines as
East Hawaii, and not on strict party
lines as is the case with Oahu, where
'"ihss nave narrowed down to only
'hose tainted as Republicans. mainly

sion of the Court in turning down the
law this noon may also have the effect
of hurrying action. But all this is a
remote possibility. With great inter.
nal affairs to handle and trouble in
several places outside, Congress has
about as much as 1t can wrestle with
at this time. If it thinks favorably of
taking up the County Law 1t will most
likely wait until the tail end OF the
session, when there is more time, and
all interested parties may have had a
chance to be heard.

The most sensible and safest thing
to do is to call the Legislature togeth.
er in special session for the purpose of
remedying the defects already pointed
out by the Court. Time will also be
saved and just now, when the people
are struggling to get the relns of gov,
ernment in their own hands, time is
money. A hurry summons might be
sent out, which would bring the legis.
lators to Honolulu inside of two
weeks. In the succeeding fortnight all
of the work ahead could be finished up,
and the members of the Legislature on
the way to their respective homes.
Why is this not the best scheme? II
not this, then we say that the people
should begin to "do" politics for the
next term. 1t is fortunate that the
County Act provided for the throwing
back of the responsibility upon the
Territory in case it or any part of it
should be knocked out, or we would
be very muchly in the consomme.

In q talk to the crowd from the Sal

+. Cooke referred to the practice of
cursing among the male population of
Honolulu. While not wishing to preach
sermon, we must say that we en-
dorse the remarks of Mr.. Cooke. There
is probably no city in the world in
which vulgarity is more common. Ex-
pressions that would mean an instant
fight or shooting scrape in many
places are mere by-words. here 1t is a
pity that it is so for it not only gives
a bad impression to visitors from the
other islands but to visitors from
abroad.

The Japanese envoy at st. Petersburg
says that his country will be able to

spades enough IN the Orient to dig

CALL THE LEGISLATURE.

The County Act is no more, and the
county system throughout the Islands
has fallen to the ground.
Now, what is to be done?
People all over the group, of every
political party, are clamoring for
county government and have waited
impatiently for months for its installa-

ney Breckons is to be charged with

into the Act the double-bareled head

OF the Legislature accepted the Act
largely on account of the fact that 1t

to be all-wise. But that is ancient his
