Eat Maui and central Maui by the construction of a good wagon
ry id from Nahhui to K'ailua. Wagon roads connecting different parts
ot uMMixlaud are as essential as aie arteries in the human body.
Nor is it a dead expense, for the construction of the proposed road
will open up and ttevelap a largo area of farming, stock, fruit and
dairy land along its luie, which will add eventual minions to tno
alue of Muui lauds and produce. This is a much needed road, and
should be built at u"ce.

A new Circuit Court house is need
ed at Wailuku and another etKailuo.
That at Wailuku is small ana inade
quate. There is none at Kailua. That
at Hilo needs! additional room.
The terms ill the Fourth Circuit
jhou'd all be hold at'Hilo, instead of
at Ililo and Henokaa alternately, as
at. iipo-nt. mifl tliiise in the Seeonil
v J . v - ,
ii cuit should all be held at WhiIuWu
Instead of at Hint place ana i xj
hahia, as at picsent. At Honokaa
there is no court house and at La
haina only an Inadequate court hou.
TJip hotel accoinni Klalioiis also ave
inadequate, at least at LionoKaa,
There are but few cases from those
places, imd the expense both to th
(ovcriiuieni. taiu to um urs m ih"k
to those places, is jjreat, to say not-
hiiiy of the inconvenience of jurors
and witness. If Hilo add Wailuku are
male county seats, that will be an
akat.onat reuscui for holding the
courts i:i .those places alone. It would
pav to erect an adequate building at
one lihice but the. expense of provid-
in-r eliit:ltllf 4(,lir t houses a both
pi. ices in each Circuit would he un
necessarily great, especially consider
ing the comparatively -.horl time the
court would lie in session hi euei
nl.ice. The lrrowiiiir libraries can
not verv well be moved from pliceti
place. The records cannot, be kept
nor the clerks remain hi both places.
The Judtfe of the Second Circuit
recommends an increase in the salary
of his clerk from $75 to $100 pr
month; idso that an appropriation be
made for assistant clerk, to act also
us clerk of the District Court of Wai
luku; also for a stenographer and an
Hawaiian Interpreter. I am unable
at present to support these recom
mendations, expect that for an in
crease in the salary of the clerk, and
S merely state them as those of the
Circuit Judtfo.

to meet him.
Ochiltree bided his time, as he was
ni.vHi known to comilain, and did
not tfo to tl.'e ship to welcome Gen-
l ul Grant. He took a vantage point
in the crowd that tilled the streets in

were doing guard duty along the

from the hotel steps to the curb. The

Ochiltree watched until the geu-

the laud of hi- old friend and, offei

prouuly through the rank and file of
the leading citizens into the hotel.
The mob outside demanded a speech
from the general, and, constituting
himself a comu ittee of one, Colocel
Ochiltree appeared with him in the
hotel balcony and introduced Grant
lis one of his best, truest and bravest
friends. This was the last time the
men iu Galveston tried to snub him
at u social function.

jgj 'the attitude ol President Koosevelt, of cougress, of England,
oiihQ Hawaiian Islands, of others interested, and of Cuba itself
tovvards, the Cuban Reciprocity trety tends to make it a very com
plicated political puzzle. One solution of tue puzzle would be for
Cuba t-i ask for annexation -mtright, but owing to the pride and
nf P.ii.i i,w r.b a, solution is neither to be hoped nor
feared at present.. There is some merit in the plea of unjust dis
crimination' urged in the protest of Great Britain, and the senate
will uesitate to do Roosevelt's bidding in the matter. No satisfac
tory compromise suggests itself and the indications now are that
the situation cannot be unt uigled by at extra session of the senate,
and that the matter will be allowed to drift for some lime.

The telegraphic announcement that China is debating the
proposition of adopting the gold standard, and that Mexico will
probably adopt the gold standard within the yeai are but natural
and inevitable results. When Hryan made free silver an issue of
his presidential campaign, he drove the writer of this editorial and
tuousandsxjf other lifelong democrats oat of his party, because
free silver or a silver standard are impossibilities. Silver will and
must ba used as a convenient subservient coin, but above its limit
ed use for making change and small payments, the standard value
of silver bullion in the world's market will fix its monetary value,
and no other safe rule cauld be adopted with silver, any more
than it could with copper, or any other base metal ;
V
. 23 It will be no mistake to graut to the counties the right to
manage their own schools and elect their own district magistrate.
The Hawaiians have grasped the idea of self-governmnt in j its
"broad American sense.and they need the responsibility of managing
their own county affairs in order to develop the highest aiid best
tnat is in them, and the deniai or repression of their rights is as
' cruel arid unnatural as is the compression of the feet of Chinese
ladies in baby shoes. If entrusted with the managemeuc of ttieir
own schorjis, it is almost certain that they will take a pride in de
veloping them to a high state, for the sake of .their own children.
j5 The News warmly and justly advocated the selection of Lahai-
nalSina as the proper site for an Agricut aral College, but if it bo
true that this admirable site cannot be diverted to that purpose,
and must remain as it was established, a theological seminary,! the
question arises, how far do the people of the territory care t go
in the suDDort of an avowedly sectarian institution. Such a school
as Lahainaluna might aud should be, is sorely needed on Mauijand
if Lahainaluna is not available, Wailuku offers just as desirable a
site for an industrial high school.

wireless telegraphy between the coast and the Hawaiian Islands
was an early certainty, and the prediction is coming true sooner
than its most ardent adherents had hoped for. Peter Cooper Hew
ett's discovery and application of the mercury vapor lamp to the
propulsion of powerful electric waves was the one thing needed to
make wireless telegraphy a commercial success, aud that having
been accomplished, tie rest is a mere matter of completing details;

With so many other things to think of at once, the matter of
tourist travel to the Islands is being lost sight of temporarily, but
spring tourist travel has already begun, with a promise of a large
rush of pleasure seekers to the Islauds this summer. It is not
best to wait till the rush is on before completing arrangements for
their welfare and comfort. The best advertisement for Hawaii will
be the returning tourists from bare to the mainland, and we must
do well by the first comers. ' ' -

cries of distress. Makiug a search
they found a short distance away, a
big alligator dragging a little girl
into the water. The alligator was
killed, anil when measured was found
to be fifteen feet long. The child was
unhurt, as the reptile had had hold
of her dress.

The name of the leader, too, excit

the rest of the ladies in Cambridge
loved to gossin about a man whom
they described as "darlingly and des

enterprising," gay and gallant, and

admiringly how he marched through
tne wicket gate at old . Ticonderoga

into the magazine at New Haven un

the keys within five miuutes when

by seizing the great water wheel and
going around with it through water
and through slty.
