ANUIIINT HILO JOUUNAL.
Printed I'liRcs or Tito Ililo Ailvo
cute." UiieurthtMl In it (lurret.
Hiloites of to-day are wont to
swell them selves with the pride of
this city's modernity. Even Ililo
newspapers swell tip occasionly and
claim credit for the down-to-datc
condition of affairs here, and especi
ally to plume themselves in the be
lief that the journals of to-day arc
the pioneer representatives of Gut
tenburg on the Island of Hawaii.
Such is not the case. Long before
the Tribune or the Herald had been
conceived or had gone forth like
winged thought, to enlighten man
kind; before the Bulletin bulletined
or the Star started or the Advertiser
advertised, the Hilo Advocate was
booming Hilo. The number dis
covered fn J. H. Maby's garret was
issued in July 1880. Its colums
reek with advertisements and
"boom" stuff for Hilo. The July
number was the last, the following
pathetic valedictory appearing from
the pen of the editor, Mr. H. Ste
phen Wallingford.
"And now farewelll our physical
condition renders it necessary that
we should at once resign the editor
ship of this paper and retire to pri
vate life. What small stock of brains
we possessed at the start have all
been consumed in the production of
this number and we arc left a
mental bankrupt. To those of our
friends, who have so kindly ren
dered us assistance in this, our
hour of trial, we return our heart
felt thanks, and will send them a
copy of the Advocate (if we do not
forget it).
P. S. Suits for libel must be made
in 30 days or else they will be de
clared unlawful.
The news colums bristle with the
life of the 80s. We make the fol
lowing extracts.
"Mr. Olsen left town yesterday
for a two weeks stay in Keeau.
"Hilo was treated to a shock of
earth quake on the first.
"Hilo has passed through a po
tatoe famine.
"Johnny Ki is building a palatial
Mansiou at the upper end of Church
street.
"The Fourth of July celebration
was the best Hilo ever had. Un
der the management of J. H. Maby
the program was a splendid suc
cess. "In a department which the Hilo
papers of to-day might well add to
their prosy columns, it is discovered
that fortifications for Cocoanut Is
land were then in sight. A navy
yard was also, about to be estab
lished and the air was full of big
things. We glean from "The
Answers to Correspondents" col
umn: "To readers Questions to be
answered must be accompanied by
a certificate of good character,
signed by the King.
"Major No, Mr. Bishop is not
a graduate of West Point.
"Anxious Yes, Diamond Head
and Cocoanut Island will be strong
ly fortified.
"Kona You'r right; a World's
Fair in Honolulu in 1882 would
develop the resources of the King
dom enormously.
"Konihika This gentleman has
10,240 acres of cane laud and he
wants to lease it to the government.
' 'Kau That's the talk.
"Enquirer We suspect the $10,-
000,000 loan originated at Kala
kaua College in the vicinity
Honolulu where political philosiphy
is taught.

wily auuvmy u.u B, luumum-

"Sailor Certainly Hilo will have
a navy yard, it will be the envy of
the world.
"Princess Yes, we agree with Chicago have prohibited the use of

King should have charge of the on duty. Practically all the import
printing machine and issue the ant railroads now coucur in this

HOAKI) AM) UIKCUIT COURT.
Ksl limit os of Judge Little Are Cut
by Hoard.
At Saturday's meeting of the
Board the following communication
was received from Judge Little:
"Gentlemen: I have the honor
to transmit herewith an estimate of
the probable expenses for my Court
for the fiscal year ending February,
1805.
"The estimates have been pre
pared in accordance with the ex
penses of former terms of Court, as
appears on record in our Court, and
if you will permit me to say in ex
planation that, should any of these
estimates be too high, of course the
money would remain in the treas
ury unexpended and subject to the
order ol the Board of Supervisors
the same as other funds.
"The experience of Courts is that
you had better make the estimate
high rather than too low, and inas
much as no money can be paid out
of the treasury without a proper
voucher approved by the judge of
the Court, whatever the estimate
may be above what is actually
needed will remain in the treasury.
"I further suggest that our terms
of Court here fluctuate sometimes
we have a very heavy term of Court
and sometimes the term is rather
light, so that it is impossible to
make an estimate that will exactly
meet the demands of the Court.
"Very respectfully submitted,
"GILBERT F. LITTLE,
"Judge.
Accompanying the U-tter were
the following estimates:
February Term $2,000
May Term 2,000
August Term 1,200
November Term 2,000

To Ceylon by Hall.
For some years past there has
been a proposal to link the island
of Ceylon to the mainland of India
by a railwify carried across the
coral reef of Adam's bridge and '
the island of Raines waram; and the
project has now been brought with
in view of completion by the report
of a railway commission, which has
just been issued in India, recom
mending the construction of a.
broad-gauge line. Geological evi
dence shows that Ceylon was orig
inally joined to India by a continu-1
ous isthmus, which, according to j
the temple records of Rameswaram, .
was breached by a great storm in '
1480. When the two countries are ,
once more joined together by a
r railway bridge, and continuous in-1
tercourse is established, the present ,
system, which makes Ceylon a j
crown colony, separated from our
Indian empire, will seem more than !
