THE MOSQUITOES
AND THE TOURISTS

EDITOR STAR: l noticed Mr.. Quinn's
remarks upon my letter of recent date,
and am glad to see that he has the
courage of his convictions, and comes
out in an open, straightforward, manly
manner in opposition to my view; and
not in a sly, underhand, anonymous
manner, as some person or persons are
in the habit of doing. But 1 will say
to these anonymous writers that write
to me with their cheap attempt at
wit and weak attempts at sarcasm, and
ridicule, that they cannot by such pal
try means turn me from my purpose;
and which purpose is, If they are too
Obtuse to understand, nothing but what
consider is for the best interest of
this country and, for the best interest
and welfare of the Hawaiian Islands
and all the people. And l would ask
if they, or any else do not agree with
me why employ such boyish tactics?
Why not come out in a courteous and
manly manner as Mr.. Quinn has done?
Now in regard to Mr.. Quinn, 1 will
say that there may be something in
what he says, but at the same time IN
justice to myself, / will say that after
writing upon all manner of topics for
the last twenty or thirty years he is
the first man to say that my writings
are calculated to do more harm than
good
Indeed, Mr.. Whitney, Mr.. Atkinson,
Mr.. H. Castle as well as many of the
former and present editors of our news
papers, have had ample proof that no
one has more persistently and urgent
ly written and worked for everything
that would benefit this people any
country. And no one has done more
to advocate good roads and bridges,
and schools, and good government, and
good institutions and measures of all
kinds. Few men, for instance, if any,
have done more to advocate the adop-
ton of everything that would prove
of interest to the sugar industry, ana
which has helped to place our sugar
mills in the front rank, and which has
meant so much to the prosperity of
these islands.
Some of these measures should like
to mention. For instance, l was one
of the first to see the advantage that
would be derived from annexation, and
was one of the first, if not the first
man, to come out squarely in print in
favor of it, This was not done be-
cause we had anything against the
native; on the contrary we know a

Unfold the dainty lace,
Place a wreath in the gold Of her hair
Just over her fiowerrIike face.
Fasten those gems on her arms,
And these in her shell-like ears,
But heed not the mist DER her eyes
Which is gemming their blue with
tears.
Trail the soft bridal veil
Till it covers her tear-wst eyes,
Ba forget the proud mouths culver
And her passion OF stifed signs.
Fer out Of the star-lit past,
Into the cleaning Of now.
From the duh rust of bygone years
Comes a face-and broken vow
But love, and a handsome face
Are lust a dream Of the past,
While money, ana title, and land
Are the things that give one caste.
Then bring forth the lettering groom
SO wiinkled, and bald, and old
But forget that the shrinking bride
Has bartered herself for gold.

And forget the sweet dead past,
