Allen fiom ofllce if shown by the feebleiiosr. of the apologies put forth for it, the weaklier of the replies made to expressions of indignation over it and the silence regarding the strongest grounds of protest prc ..eiited against it. Indeed, the first apology ventured invoked nf. se.veic cotidemnation of the Government as the moil bitter words its opponents could employ. What else can be. made of the praise of Col. Allen as 'a most able and intelligent ollleer," vho-e 'retirement shows that he adhetus to principles long formed," and ivhu-u "strongest political oppo nents are soiry to-day that his resig nation was ever contemplated" this praise, too, in connection with the statement that "for sonic time past" the ollieial in question "lias not. been in accoid with the Govern ment, and not in harmony with the present Administration?" What could bo more damning to a Govern ment than to assert of it that ability, intelligence, adherence to principles, and the best repute among his strongest political opponents are attributes of an ollieial that fail to place him in accord with it and in harmony with its administration? It amounts to saying that tiic Gov ernment wants to have all the res ponsible posts under it occupied by men of imbecility and ignorance, , devoid of principle and only es teemed for their political value in the hands of tlniir masters men, in brief, whose woik is of a piece with the blundering and corruption that have i educed the finances' of the , Kingdom to the chaotic slate revealed by the Legislature's Finance Committee. To-day the. Advertiser has dropped its apo- lojjetie tone, and makes a show of defence for the Government in the way of benscless carping at the action of the Chamber of Commerce. It asserts that the, resolutions of that bodv are "purely political," not- '' withstanding its disclaimer of intent i'l. io take part in discussions of thnt ) clinrucU'r. It also repiesents the. meeting of the Chamber as having 'bcen "summoned in a liolent hurry," " to take advantage of the little ex citement occasioned by the dismissal of Col. Allen." Does anybody be lieve that it was the partisan feeling that may be embodied in the mem- " bcrship of the Chamber of Commerce, which Instigated its prompt action jin'tlio matter? Not a bit of iti ovou jUlio conductors of tho Advertiser know thai the business men of Ho nolulu ate slow to be moved for fetich purposes, and that only when the commercial interests of the Kingdom are menaced by politicians and their scheming allies, as in the case of tlio Hank Chatter and in the present one, does the Chambct of Commerce take a stand for or iigainsl the Govern ment of the day. The removal of the public! ollieial who has most to do with the relations subsisting be in ecu the Government and the com mercial interests of the Kingdom nhen that official has scived the Government with unimpeachable in tegrity and inspired the mercantile community with the deepest and most universal confidence is not a puiely political matter, but one of the gravest concern to the whole business interests of the country. Then the Advert her says that "no mau can understand" the fol lowing passage in the resolutions, and immediately afterward emphat ically contradicts "the insinuation it eontains," oblivious of the ab surdity of denying anything that cannot be understood: "This is but another step in the procedure which has gradually withdrawn the financial interests of the kingdom from the control of men who have by their long service won the confi dence of the public." If our con temporary does not understand this plain assertion, those on whoso be half it speaks understand it. They know only too well the details of the policy that rendered possible the- pretty exhibition of the nation's finances which was made at last session. Well thev know the mani pulation of the Hoards of Educa tion, Health and Immigration to subserve personal ends and ambi tions. Yes, the removal of a com petent and faithful Collector-General to be substituted by, probably, a creature of the present rulers is only "another step" in the proce dure that is fast making this King dom miserable at home and despica ble abroad. If the calm and seri ous remonstrance of the Chamber of Commerce has no effect in arrest ing that step, the whole community will have to combine, and that "in u violent hurry," to utter a protest thnt will at least cheek "the proce dure" that is putting the financial interests of the Kingdom in the hands of knaves and tools. EDITORIAL NOTES. From time to time we shall take the pleasure of writing up the exist ing industries of Honolulu. To-day we give a description of one of our nearest neighbors' establishment the Honolulu .Steam Planing Mills. This service we regard as one of the most important functions of the local newspaper, tending to develop in citizens a pride in the achievements of home industry, and attracting the beneficial attention of foreign capi taliits and tradesmen. The Jewish New Year begins to night. Its observance consists in domestic devotions, social visitation and interchange of gifts. In the synagogue nt 10 o'clock in the morningof the New Year, the day is announced by blowing a Shofar (trumpet), in' connection with which public services are held. According to Jewish law public services may be held when a congregation of ten men can be gathered, but that has never been accomplished so far in Honolulu. The Hum.iviin takes the oppot Utility of wishing our Hebrew fellow-citizens a happy new yenr. Our double-starred correspondent is properly severe on the Adverti ser's unjustifiable attack on the Arctic explorer, Grccly. It is atro cious to call a man a murderer upon the strength of u flimsy inference. At the same time wo fear tlio letter, printed elsewhere, misses its mark, as the present editor of the Adver tiser could never have written such coarse slander as that criticized. Neither do we believe that Air. Gib son is responsible for nil the utter ances of our contemporary, nor that the animosities attributed, justly or unjustly, to him could assume such a grotesque form as the vulgar assault on Grccly referred to. The- stricture in the water service has grown worse since the reference wo mado to it the other day'. It caino too suddculy to bo attributed to drouth, and it appears to be as MtwKBBHiiiiiaiLmjju.' jliimmnuBw.vjJj jjhu.'j, tajJnm.i!aiijj.iM.ir-i jmmitua bad in the caso of mountain as in that of artesian water. In the vicinity of this oillco the supply is so scant as to make proprietors feel very anxious over the possibility of a lire starling. Air. "Wilson, Super intendent of the Water-works, has been ill for several days, which per haps has something to do with the trouble. The Clerk, who is next to him in the department, should investigate the matter and have the causes of the inconveni ence removed as speedily as possi ble. Honolulu has a handsome .Music Hall, that stands most of the time like the Temple of Janus in time of peaceclosed. Probably it is wortli while to have such n place for giving audience to the foreign artists who can be occasionally attracted hither. Yet the community will not receive the full measure of legitimate bene fit from the institution unless it develops sufficient local enthusiasm in music and drama to permit its being opened with frequent, regular periodicity for displays of domestic talent. That there is,abundaut talent here for encompassing that end has been proved by very creditable ama teur performances given at remote intervals by vaiious associations for the benefit of laudable objects. Can not the Honolulu Dramatic Club, the Symphony Club and the Ama teur Alusical Society, singly or collectively, undertake to give us a series of popular entertainments at an eaily date? HONOLULU STEAM PLANING MILLS. lYomincnt among the principal industrial establishments of Hono lulu stands the concern named in the heading to this descriptive ai ti de. It is situated on an irrcgulaily shaped site near the foot of Fort street, almost close to the vaiious steamship wharves. The front meas ures about 1.10 feet, and a portion of the lot is 200 feet deep, the re mainder about half that depth. Everybody here, however, knows the spot, for the clock tower, visible at great distances on all sides, is one of the city's chief laiidm'nrks, and its dials, brightly illuminated at night, are the great regulators of all who make a nolo of time in their incomings and outgoings. Having visited the snug and well appointed olllee in a corner of the main brick building, the Bui.m'tix representative was escorted all over the place by Air. .1. Simmons, the genial book-keeper of the establish ment, and afterward meeting the energetic and urbane proprietor, Air. George Lucas, was shown the work ing of the more delicate machinery by that gentleman. On the. ground floor of the main building arc band, buzz and jig saws, planer, lathe, and shapcr. They are making delightful music to the utili tarian car. Indeed, the moaning of the saws yield cadences of such deli cate crescendo and diminuendo as would not discredit the great Rom cnyi's fiddle. At the rear is the engine room, where a 70 h. p. Put nam engine, latest style, with tireless energy makes things hum all over the place. There, on the wall, is the electric bell connected with the Survey Department in the Govern ment Building. The whistle cord depends from the ceiling, and the fireman takes hold of it a minute before twelve, noon, awaiting the signal to wake the echoes with the shrill intimation of the sun's arrival at the meridian. In a shed outside there is u band saw of so versatile n capacity that the production of veneer as thin as papor or of deals a foot or more thick is all the same to it. On the second lloor the fitting room is entered, where doors, sashes, blinds, etc., arc put together. This room also contains the flue machines for making blinds, which are so ingenious that the human hand has only left to it the function of being a lender to them. Even tlio little wire staples hiugcing the rod to the middle of the slats aro put in and linked by a machine. Hero is a place, for melting gluo by steam and there a chest wiiero the same agent dries lumber in fact, no labor saving contrivanco is omitted that can be supplied. Entering the second building that adorned with tho clock the iron street door opens into :; spa ciouf. store-room for lumber, comont, corrugated iron, lime and building supplies generally, which nro on salo in cither wholesale or ictail quanti ties. The most noticeable object at this visit was the handsome slx-oarcd boat just bought by His Alajcaly, which rested softly on canvas cushions on the floor. This building is of cemented brick and fire-proof, on ils second floor n large workshop and store-room combined, together with n smaller store-room for hard ware, mountings, etc. Ascending a flight of steps in the tower above the second story a beautiful object is encountered in the shape of a handsomely mounted telescope, which brings the grand mountain and ocean scenery closo under the eye and through which, now, is seen the sublime spectacle of a gallant vessel, away in tlio offing, breaking her way at a furious pace through billows that enrobe her hull in cvcr-cliangiug foam. From a gallery at this level n magnificent view of the land and water environs of Honolulu is obtained, which the writer lias not the geographical or topographical knowledge to des cribe. Up another flight and the remark ably simple as well as pretty mecha nism of the Scth Thomas tower clock is seen. It is connected by cords witit the other simple mechanism moving tho hands over the dials on a still higher level. The clock and the various buildings are lighted with gasoline made on the premises by the most approved apparatus, an automatic device pumping the illumi nant to the burners away up in the dial chamber. These mills have been established five years, and in brisk times employ 200 hands, the present poy roll num beiing about 150, about three-fourths skilled workmen. They are there fore a most important factor in the industrial and commercial life of Honolulu and a great credit to the enterprise and push of their pro prietor.
