KA LEO O KA LAHUI.

"E Mau ke Ea o ka Aina i ka Pono."

 

Did not get it.

            It is stated on reliable authority that the S.F. Examiners "most proniment member of the National Reform party" Mr. E.C. Macfarlane made an offer to the Bulletin stockholders to lease that paper for two years and the offer was declined. It would appear from this that Eddy is of the opinion that the evening paper is not to his liking. The Bulletin management probably are not anxious to illustrate the fable of the man and his ass by trying to please everybody.

 

An Example of Hilo Government.

Sometime ago the police of Hamakua attempted to capture a Hawaiian alleged to be a leper, who was living in a hut in the woods far removed from other human habitation. Shots were fired, and two policman fell and the native received two wounds. The attempt to capture the native was abandoned, and a devise adopted that reflects particular credit on Sheriff Hitchcock. The father, mother brothers and sisters of all wounded man were arrested and lodged in jail. They were told that they were all to be hung for the murder of the policeman. One of his kinsmen was sent to inform the rebel of the situation of his family and friends and to say that the only way to save them was to surrender himself into the hands of the Sheriff. So like a brave man he came and gave himself up for the sake of those he loved. He was obained with arms and legs around the mast of a schooner, in which position he remained for several days while being transported to Hilo. No attemp was made to aleviate his sufferings. A doctor looked at him only once. He was put in irons in a pen in the Hilo jail, there he lay for two or three months, his wounds undressed, slowly dying. A scrap of salt salmon, a tin of ditch water, were occasionally pushed with his reach as to a dangerous dog. The jailors would have been more merciful, but they were forbidden by the authorities to render any assistance to the doomed man. So this innocent Hawaiian died in indescribable agony after months of torture. Such things are not uncommon in Hawaii, of course no blame attaches to any of the officials.

 

Cantoniers.

            One of the good measures of last session was the passing of the Cantonier Bill, which will remain a lasting credit to its introducer, Representative Marques. The whole country has watched with interest the working of this wholesome law, and already its good results are apparent, notwithstanding the fact that, as a rule, it has been started in the most slovenly and careless way, by indifferent, if not hostile, road officers.Any one interested in the matter, only needs watching the doings of the several contoniers on our various strets and roads, to notice how very different and varied is the work of each of them, showing that they were set to work without any regular instructions from the road authorities, and then severely left alone to use their own judgement. Where the cantonier is good and intelligent, he has already accomplished excellent work and the fine appearance of the selection intrusted to his care shows that the cantonier system is the only one to insure us a uniform, good and lasting condition of our thoroughfares; where the cantonier is - if not bad, at least unintelligent, - there his work has clearly been thrown away. Different cantoniers have been interrogated by the writer as to what is expected of them., and they all replied that they were ordered to keep their section "in order" without ever having received any explanations as to what "order" is. This one starts to dig up all the fine grass on one side along the fence of his road, while carefully leaving the other weed, more difficult to contend with; another as his reason points out, attends principally to the holes and ruts. There is one on Beretania Street, who can be seen every day very faithfully fidgetting on some of the large beds of grass on each side walk, whilst the road bed full of holes is left to itself. Another thing which strikes usual observers, is the apparent unequal distribution of the cantoniers, and the length or extreme shortness of some of the sections, while certain roads, byestreet or portions of roads have not yet received even a visit from any cantonier at all. In some places, very bad portions of road-bed is perfect, which shows that the provisions of the law allowing to call together several cantoniers for special repairs has not been attended to. Of course, a new departure like the cantonier art, introducing habits quite unknown here, cannot be expected to work immediately to perfection, before the agents have acquired the necessary experience; but what we have above noticed, shows a want of attention, if not of capacity in one at least of the Road Supervisors, - that of Honolulu - which would seem to confirm the opinion of some growlers in town, who pretend that he is kept in his situation, merely for the fact of having been one of those brave men, who "carried a gun in 1887" and helped to rob the rights the natives of their natural rights.
