THIS NtSW M AUK 1ST.
11 Is n disgrace lo this Oovprn
nionl lo dolny so long tbo comilo
tion of 1 ho now market. For u
Government thai complacently
accepts the jiralso of ilyitiR visit
ors who tiro woll taken cnn of
with thnt ohject in viow when they
ulight Hint it is tho host
govornmont tho ifllumlH ever linri,
tho leaving of this highly im
portnnt public work uncomplotail
is nn extraordinary pieco of nog
loci. As tho building was oroetod
by Mr. Thurston whon Ministor
of tlio Intorior, a man who wan
ono of tlio foundors of tin's "best
govornmont," it might bo thought
that tlio members of Hie Govern
ment would fuel nsliuniod of such
u inonuniPiit to their inactivity in
public improvements and thoir
indillbrence to the general welfaro
of tho community. In tho ans
wer givon to a question from tho
Houbo of Representatives, tho
Ministor of tho Intorior on bohalf
of the Govornmont said tlio com
pletion of tlio work was provided
for in ono of the many loan aots
extant, but other matters of "more
importance" had thus far claimed
tho available funds. Of cumo it
is of more importance to tho Min
isters to imiko assurance doubly
suro in tho matter of holding
thoir salaried positious, by tl o
most lavish and extravagant mili
tary, secret service and police ex
penditures the country has over
known. But tko public at largo
is getting tired of this cowardly
looking out for numbor ono on
tbo part of tho Govornmont, and
no doubt many of tho supporters
of the movement that plr.cod our
present rulers on their lofty
poroho3 aro beginning to think
that a ch'inge of program is over
due. Achmge from tho policy of
trying to intimidito tho dis.iiiect
ed into loya'ty by a profuse show
of biyoaets and an ostentatious
diBplay of pirks of artillery, to a
policy of progress and public im
provement so oxtonsivo and lib
eral as to disarm discontent with
tho new form of government.
Thoro hi-sboenchaugo oiMugn.tho
doar knows, but all tbo imprive
mnt otlected in the vjiious
bruuehes of tho public sorvico
has to bo sought with u micro
scope. And when any of the ar
ticle is found, the chances aro it
has a batiUgi'xUnd if 1'iosh debt
that takes all the shine out of it.
Thorn is in some cases, besides,
room for strong suspicion that all
that goes by tlio name of improve
ment is not such. Take, for in
stanco, the Honolulu waterworks.
Aftor spending money like the
osseutial olomont sought, in futile
pumping experiments at tbo Mu
kiki well, artesian wollsatoboiod
in town and a pumping plant im
ported, at groat exponso. A rc
serv.oir to be connected with tho
pumping station is begun, but for
some reason or other perhaps
tho waut of funds work on tho
reservoir is stopped. Now it is
said that tho wator from thoso
now wells will not keop, that it
bocomes nauseous and no longer
potable aftor exposure to tho air
for a few days. This makes a
plonsant prospect for household
ers who aro to got their supply of
water from tho now works. Thoio
nro thoso who aro old fogyish
enough to believo that tho Gov
ernipont could have obtained i n
ample supply of wator by develop-
mmim
raBRt oT His plufi nf fointfr kjy
ernmgiiU. Thai the supply by
grvttition from 0 iiiulliiUina
might, nl inttoh m ami limn tho
now oxprrhHflnls, lvn Iwn oon
served mid purified on Hint, with
tho addition nf the nitwlaii wider
rtlmuly avnilnbla, l.toie would bo
onoiigb wnbr for tho drytwl liino.
jlul to return to I ho multor of thu
now market, lliern nro fnw public
works begun or completed in ro
oont yours whioh would glvo
grcnlor satisfaction to a greater
numbor than would bo afforded
by tho completion of this one,
bogun as it was more than five
vo.us ago. Not tho least causo of
general public satisfaction result
ing from its completion would bo
thu doublo benefit derivod from
the domolition of tho old market.
That lias dogononited to bo simply
a hidoousaiid horrible placo dila
pidated, foul, its margins rooking
with dociyoil vegetable and
animal rofuso. Its obliteration
would bo not only a sanitary
boon, but would make room for
important harbor front improve
ments. Tho completion of tho
now market, with a boat canal
connocting it with tho harbor,
would bo a great blossing to tho
fishermen. It would make an
unrivaled attraction on tho water
front, easily accessible from tho
main routos of tr.vi 1. With tho
interior proporly planned and its
fittings designed in keeping with
tho grncoful exterior, tho proba
bility is that it would yield a
much larger rovonuo to tho Gov
ernment from stall rentals than
tho old establishment. A good,
strong resolution passed by tho
Lo,- t-laturo might hasten tho most
desirable- consummation.
OBSERVATIONS.
Mr. ltycroft's testimony regard
ing tho suitability of land on
Oahu for coflbo growing is valu
able as that of an export.
Six thousmd dollars in round
numbers is the cost of the Govern
ment's nav.il oxporiment. To
show for it thoro aro no filibust
ers in jail, no opium in the strong
room but tho birds on French
Friguto Shoals havo a now Ha
waiian flag to tear up for lining
thoir nests.
If tho Sharpshooters aro not
military, what aro they? And if
they aro military, thoy should be
tro t'll as such. On5 would think,
howovor, that moonlight or eleo
Ino light drills in squad, com
pany or battalion aro not whit
thoy require, but all tho daylight
I ractice they can get at. the butts.
With regard to uniform, the
Sharpshooters do not soem to be
wiso. If thoy do not woav some
dibtinguishiwg clothos, thoy may
in war bo mistaken for filibusters
or rebols.

Aost people make llieii wills
before thev die. and some of
them arc ureal curiosities in
their way. Among the many I
curious iegr..'ics mane nuciy is i
that of a Christiana man who
directs that his whole lortune
Shall be CXpciUu'J HI miyUCS.
A Norwegian newspaper wnicn ,
does not give itsell up to the ,
comic element relates that a
Dutch lawyer, named Nikolson,
bequeathed the whole of his
properly to trustees, to be em
ployed in the purchase of bicy
cles for the use of children at
tending school, while part of
the inonev is to go towards
paying the teacher to train the
boys in bicycle riding.
The validity of the will has
been disputed by the' sons of
the testator, who refuse to ac
knowledge it, so that it is still a
question of doubt whether the
children will reap the benefit
of the strange bequest. That
the testator was sincere enough,
and that he recognized in the
wheel untold blessings which
might have escaped the ob
servation of minds of less
relates
acumen, the concluding portion
of the will should go to prove.
It says :-
I have always found a bi
cycle capital protection against
the importunity of those
people who persist in stopping
you in your walk to spin a long
yarn in the hot sun or in the
biting east wind. My machine,
unlike a horse, nevershied once;
and in my drives 1 have had no
need to intrust life and limb
to the tender mercies of a
coachman."
NOW that lawyer had gOOd
hard, solid sense and plenty ofi
it. in fnri. n p-nnd deal more OI i

u man uiuji itivvycio ait cicun-
ed with, and yet not more than
many boys and girls in Hono
lulu have, for are there not
many of the latter who are
spending their whole fortunes
in purchasing a bicycle and they
are wise in spending their
money en something that will
give them their money's worth
every time.
The bicycle of the Khedive
of Egypt is a gorgeous ma
chine, almost entirely covered
with silver plating but if anyone
wants a duplicate ot it we can
furnish it, or if something
"English you know" is wanted
we can supply similiar ma
chines to those used by the
PrinceEof Wales' boys and girls,
all of whom are expert riders.
But for common every day
people like those who reside in
Paradise, we mean the Hawaii
an Paradise, the Monarch is
the machine to buy. It gives
you better value for the money
than any other make, and we
can furnish it in any style and
price. We have received by
the Australia the largest con
signment of wheelsever brought
to the islands, and also a
complete line of extra fittings.
If any portion of a Monarch
wheel gets broken or out of
order we can replace it at a
moment's notice at factory
prices.
Mr. T. V. King, who arrived
by the same steamer, will have
charge of the mechanical depart
ment of our bicycle business.
His large experience in that line
enables us to guarantee satisfac
tion in all work entrusted to
him.
