Another minister, we presome. the Rev. Sereno E. Bishop, who | gave evidence before Mr. Blonnt, 1 rages fgainst the Hawaiians in this week s Ind.ependent. Here is the occouut he gives of his j flock: “There are two great parties in ! Hawaii. One is the party of . heatbenism and absolutism. lt is represented by the debaoched ex Queen, who attempted to over tbrow the constitution and ! establish the Lousiana lottery in Honolulo. Ou her side are all the kahuna sorcerers and idolaters, all the white corruptionists. | aud those who wish to make Honolulu a centre for the manu- j facture and distribution of opium, j tcgethtr with the lewd and ; druuken majority of the native race uho will largely by ihe i lucrativt ]rro4ltution of their females to the vifeless Chinese and Japanese, some 25,000 of the i latter classes to the 11,000 adult native women. In allianee with this heathen raonarchical party are a majority of the 1,500 British residents, who oppose American inAuenee and are led by the British Minister.'’ Now there is no reason that we kuow of why the Rev. Sereno should not h«)ld and express this opinions as a man, but as a minister, they make him very ridiculous. Me say it is monstrous that the money of Ameriean Christians should go to the paymeut of salary to an evangelist who lives in this state of mind towards the people whom he is sent to convert and edify. Sugarplantiug is clearly his vocation. That he has an eye to business in his ravings was shown in his testimony before Mr. Blount, when he declared that anneiation would cause “an appreciation of most property values withiu two years of at least 50 per cent.” Money spent on ministers of this sort is money w;isted. —Xew York Post. After reading such a malignant false disgusting and outrageons communication from the pen of a scoundrel, who calls himself a christiau, and a mau, we do uot wonder that the Hawaiians as a body are anxious to get rid of the “Christian” preachers, the “Christian Missionaries,” and Christianity itself, nud we furthermore consider every Hawaiian woman, every Hawaiian man, and every white man married to a Hawaiian justified in wreaking summary vengeance on the cur, who has dared, in this wholesale manuei’, to hlaeken the reputatiou of the Hawaiiau women. The great suit of the Banning estate vs. W. F. Allen adminis trator whieh has been before our courts for some tiine has created considerable attention and it has placed our probate courts in a rathec disagreeable light. lf j matters of such imraense importance as probate matters undonbtedly are is to be treated in such a light aud superficial manner as it seems has been the case in the Bauuing estate tbe confidence whieh the puhlie ougbt to feel in the courts will be severelv j 1 impaired. Tbe looseuess with whieh admimstrators of trustfunds invest these without auy 1 xegard to the value of the secnri- ' ties is also a matter whieh has ( created great consternation and 1 grave reflections. We do not ( propo«« to eipnaa any opinion i

! on the Banning case nntil it has been finally settled. but we shall ; espress a hope that the Probate 1 Court in the futare will ose soroe ! more circnmspection in performj iug its daty than has bcen the case in tbis instance. The meu from the aterland {speak in very complimentary | terms about Mr. Dole and bis | Board of Edacation. BECArsE a man is a surreyor f is it necessaiy that be must be a ; I specialist in educational raatters' To jadge from Mr. Dole’s candi- | dates for the new Board of edu- | cation he evidently is of that : opinion. But perhaps it is on1y a df*.lye on his part. Mb. Dole in his remarks on tbe new Board of Education stated that it had taken him loug tirne and mueh labor to arrive as ; far as he now was. As he there after proved that he hadn’t been i able during all that time and in spite of all the labor to find six men and women fitted to be mem- | bers of the Board we begin to believe that Mr. Dole is wasting his time and labor b\ ? attending to puhlie duties and that his coming work of framing a suitable constitution for his republic will hardly be furnished as the Star promised iu the first part of the spring. Question: When it takes a eouple of month’s hard labor not to make a Board of Edncation, how long does it take to make a repuhlie and a coustitutiou? Don’t answer all at onee. The 5 Advertiser is still iu hysterics, because the Queen told Minister Willis that according to the laws of the Kingdom, the men who committed treasou ou | the 17th of Januarv, 18 ( JJ; were i entitied to punishmeut, and that our treason law on!y knows one seutence and that —death. We ' do not see where the Queen’s cruelty in the matter cornes iu. She neither made the law nor signed it. The law was made by one of the godly flock to whom the Adcertiser clique belongs, and was placed on the statutes of the country by other members of the same flock. The Queen as far as we remember has never had any power to repeal that act or even to suggest any amendment to it. The P. G. treason act does not difler very mueh from the old law, and yet, nobody is horrorstrickeu and cants about their cruelty and savageuess. But we were going to ask the Adverliser to express an opiuiou about those men like Wm. Waterhouse and mauy others who openly have stated, aud yet state that the Queen will be assassinated in the veiy minute that an attempt is made to restore her. Such remarks are not only confined to meu, but also to women belonging to Mr. Castle’s set. What is worst to be a stern judge foilowing the prescriptious of the laws of the land or being a vile midnight assassin? We leave the answer to Mr. Castle. Some initials writing to the Advertiser this morning is worried, because the Polynesian Society in the December number of its journal, shows that Her Majesty Liliuokalani, Queen of Hawaii is the Patrouess of the societv. The iuiliala desire the i 1 society to make an amende j honomhle for this instance of i editorial, foresight, or insight. W e fear that the anonymous writer will have to wait a eonsiderable long time before the Polynesian Society wili heed liim but of course he niight get W. O. Smith to send for the editor and give him h in the inquisitorial room. By the way the shocked correspondent to the morning organ shonld also take exception to the Whittaker’s Almanaeh, and the Gotha C ilcnder for 18W. Both of them have given instances of "editorial foresight or insight,” and ; they parade p»blicly Hawaii as a Kingdora and Lilinokalani as Qaeen. At the same time the virtuous M, P. S. or whatever his her) initials are shoutd taken a * •lapai tbe Presideat of the Franch ]

Kepublic who «ctn«Hy scnds a J diplcmatic representative io Hawaii in 1894, with credentials io Qoeen Liiiuokalani, «nd if the kicker with tbe initials has any | more wind left in biro (or her) yet i be roay eome oot and score Hcr ] most gracious Majesty of Great | j Britain who still only knows a Queen in Hawaii. Of coarse we admit that all tbis is awful and we feel great sympathy for 1 M. P. S. but it tends to prove 11 i that he (.-r sbe) and his friends are not quite out of the woods j I yet The tramp’s paradise. the | rauks of the P. G. guards and ; paid poliee, seems to be filled to repletion. Lately arrived bnms and beats have now to beg for a j living. The general pubhc shonld bear iu mind that uo man needs to beg openly for a meal iu this country, as yet. The Hawaiians, as an hospitable peojde, ; ; stili exist.
