Haiku, Mali, February 23d, 1878.To the Editor of the Pacific Commercial Advertiser:

Dear Sir : I bare tbe pleasure at last to reportthe line of the telegraph in working order fromHaiku to 'Wailuku. I have labored under greatdifficulties in tbe building of the line. 1 foundit almost impossible to get cartage or labor, andmy business has not allowed me to give my wholetime to tbe matter ; therefore tbe work of a fewweeks only, with plenty of labor and carts, hasstretched out into months. I hare in fact beenobliged to do the greater part of tbe work withmy own hands.

My thanks are due to S. T. Alexander, Esq., ofHaiku Plantation, Rer. Jas. M. Alexander, ofSea Side Farm, and W. H. Bailey, Esq. of WailukuPlantation, for timely assistance with men forthe digging of holes and setting up of the poles.Also to Mr. Bailey for hauling posts near Wailu-ku. Mr. B. F. Levy also gare efficient helpat Wailuku ; much credit is due him for keepingtbe Wailuku people awake in tbe matter.

Tbe line was set in order on Thursday tbe 21stof February, Mr. C. H. Wallace having attachedtbe battery and instruments at Wailuku and Ihaving done the same at Haiku. Tbe Grstmessage transmitted was to His Majesty (to beforwarded by mail) reporting tbe line to be inworking order.

On Saturday February 23d (to-da- the linewas made free to the public for one day and all,natives especially, were invited to make use ofit to Bend greetings to their friends. Tbe privi-lege was made liberal use of. A large numberof messages were transmitted.

Miss Juliet Wallace was established as operatorat Wailuku until an operator is taught wholives in the place. She acquitted herself verycreditably, receiving and sending messages inHawaiian and English with promptitude andaccuracy.

It is hoped that tbe public will make a gener-ous use of tbe line and that it may be a valuableacquisition to Hawaii nei.

Tbe line will be continued to Lahaina as soonas supplies arrive.

The company propose eventually to establishland lines on Oabu and Hawaii and, if efficientaid is given by the Government, lay cables con-necting these three islands.

Yours truly, C. H. Dicket,President and Super. IlaxD'n Telegraph Co.

NEEDED LEGISLATION.

The large number of horse wagon (commonlyknown as express wagons) that arc to be foundfor hire on the streets of Honolulu arc undoubt-edly a public convenience ; but there ia no lawto regulate the mode in which they shall carryon their traffic and no established tariff ofcharges for paseCDgers. Nor is there any limitto the number of passengers a single horee maybe made to drag beyond the mere limit of hisstrength. During the session of 1870, a billwas introduced for the regulation of the business,and limiting the number of passengers to bedrawn by one horse. But for some reasonperhaps it was overlooked by Ministersthe bill failed to become a law. The necessityfor some law on the subject must be apparentto all. Any day may be seen on our streetsmiserable half-starve-d horses, dragging withdifficulty aa many persons as can be packed intoa wa?on. It is cruelty to animals, mostassuredly, and we have a statute for the punishment of that offence; but somehow our authorities do not seem to regard the existing statuteas applying to the cases under consideration.The only remedy for the evil will be a

the number of passengers eay threebesides the driver that may be carried in aone-hor- se vehicle. A tariff of prices, as todistances and time, would also be a useful preventive of imposition or extortion. Each wagonor carriage that is intended for hire should forobvious reasons be registered at the InteriorOffice and numbered, the number being paintedin legible and conspicuous letters on the vehicleitself; they should also be provided with alighted lamp on each side on a dark night.And for the purpose of public convenience, certainlocalities should be designated, by some officialduly authorized, as place where vehicles forhire may be found when unemployed. A statuteis also needed to regulate the business of draying, so far as prescribing the dead weight whichshall be considered a proper load for one horseto draw. Our native drivers are none toohumane in their treatment of draft horses, as isdaily evidenced on our streets. Ail these detailsof which we have spoken would be legitimatematter for regulation by a city government, ifwe had one.

The law in regard to the Fire Department ofHonolulu is comprised within sections 331 and333 of the Civil Code, and is generally quiteample in its provisions provided they werestrictly carried out. An amendment howeverhas been suggested to section 350, which reads," All male residents of Honolulu, going to a fire,arc required to obey the orders of the ChiefEngineer and Assistant Engineers, under apenalty of five dollars for each offense." It isproposed to insert after the words " AssistantEngineers." the words, " or the Marshal orDeputy Marshal." Under the present law,the police, no matter what the emergency, haveno authority to give any orders toor idlers at a fire.

THE TREATY.great deal has been eaid and written about

the effect of the Reciprocity Treaty upon thecommercial relations of these Islands with theUnited States and other countries, which seemsto us to be more the result of speculation thanof a calm and reasonable examination into therelation of cause and effect. A slight comparison of the Custom-IIous- e Tables for 1877, whichwe published last week, with those of the previous year will give us all the light we need, toarrive at the truth. These Tables sufficientlyestablish one fact : that a jrreat and beneficial impetus has been given to the trade andbusiness of the Kingdom, which had for someyears been in a languishing condition. Ourresidents do not require to be reminded of thegloom and anxiety that characterized the business men of the Islands subsequent to 1872 and1S73 and the relief and joy, marked by themost lively demonstrations, that followed thenews of the Reciprocity Treaty passing theSenate of the United States, in 187G. TheTreaty was then regarded as the only thingthat could avert wide-sprea- d ruin and disasterfrom sweeping over the Islands, and the era ofprosperity that has dawned upon the businessof the country since that time shows that tbepopular feeling was correct. In the midst ofour rejoicing that a brighter day has arrived,we must not forget, nor hesitate to acknowledge,that the Treaty is a boon to us for which it isnot in our power to make a sufficient return,even it it were expected. ne people of theUnited States have generously granted us advantages by the Treaty which they themselvesdo not receive in like degree, and it is but oneof the many benefits they have Ehowered uponus with lavish hand.

Many crude statements have been given tothe public in California through the press,

editorially and by correspondents from theseIslands, which appear to have been colored bya want of proper anticipation of the facts whichwould clearly be developed by the working ofthe Treaty. These facta will sufficiently appearby a glance at the commerce of the port ofHonolulu (which embraces the foreign trade ofthe Kingdom) as shown by the tables for theyears 1856 and 1857. We specify the transactions in Sugar, Rice and Paddy, Lumber, Build-ing Materials and Machinery, which includethe main articles of our trade, as sufficientlycomprehensive to establish the position that theTreaty has been mutually beneficial : and especially so to us.

The exports of Sugar and Rice for 1S7C and1877, in round numbers to the United Statesand British Possessions show the followingfigures :

This large amount for 1877, paying duty, com-

prises orders expected to arrive before the lawlevying 2j per cent, went into effect, and it isprobable that the present year's showing of Bimi-l- aj

importations will be considerably less.To summarize the actual increase of imports

f )T the two years (including goods in bond) thefollowing figures may be given :Total c f all imports, 1376 $ 1,811.000- .4 1977 2,423,000Showing ugain io the laf year of 617,000

It must be noticed that the profit to the pro-ducer of the goods which we imported free underthe Treaty is the only direct return we havemade for the benefits we have received by ex-

porting our two principal staples into theUnited States, free, and the difference of thatprofit and the loss in revenue on those exportsis the sum which the United States have sacri-ficed to our direct benefit.

To sum up, in brief, it cannot be denied thatthe kindness of the people of America has madeus what we are as a nation, and that the proudposition w occupy has been reached mainlythrough their fostering care.

Our f uture lies in our own hands ; our cen-tral position in the North Pacific, in the directhighway between America and Australia, Peruand China, gives us extraordinary advantageswhich only require liberal and wise legislationto soon place us for in advance of our presentposition. Honolulu is the only safe port in animmense area of ocean, and with a low tariff ofcharges cannot fail to become the entrepot ofa traffic that will in a few years far exceed ourmost sanguine expectations. The evidences ofthis bright era of prosperity are already becom-ing apparent : let us show that we appreciateits primal cauee the Treaty of Reciprocity withthe United States.

Tidal Waves. Our readers will remember theaccount we published of the tidal wave noticed atWaialua, Oabu, Hanalei, Kauai, and Haiku, Maui,in the latter part of January last, and that we sug-gested the probability that we should hear of volca-nic disturbances elsewhere. We see by the Alta ofFeb. 23, that Callao, Iquiqui and Arica.inTeru, ex-perienced severe earthquake shocks on the night ofthe 23d of January, causing great excitement andsome damage, while Hayti was visited by a heavyrainstorm, a phenomenon unprecedented there with-in the memory of man. For several days previousto the date last given some strong shocks of earth-quake were felt near Lima, but no serious damagewas done. Scientists may be able to trace a connec-tion of these phenomena.

Lahaixa, March 4tb, 1878.To the Editor of the Pacific Commercial Advertiser:

Enough has already been said and written inregard to tbe uneven and oppressive nature of ourSunday law to satisfy the thinking mind, not nar"rowed by creed, of its incompatibility with thebest interests of the country, and the general com"fort and welfare of individuals. That this viewhas long maintained the ascendency in the mindsof the executive is a natural inference from tbefailim; on th part of the Government to upholdby prosecution the letter of the law, even whereinfractions have been 7iotorious it not glaring-Suc- h

having been the disposition of the authori-ties through a long series of years and under dif-ferent administrations (excepting where notice hasbeen courted by public advertisement) a strictadherence to the provisions of the law ha nowherebeen thought necessary ; and it is alone the tacitsanction observed so universally and so long, bythe executive, that has obviated the necessitywhich would otherwise have existed of

upon this subject.At this time and under such circumstances, if

even compatible with decency, it can scarcely bedeemed consistent that any under-Slierif- f should atthis late date seek to originate a reformation inthe working of the law which has become iie-hov.ore- d.

It is to such a case but greatly aggravated how-ever, I would call the attention ol thinking menwhether in nr out of government. In brit'f, thefacts are these : An arrest was made to-da- y of theProprietor of the Pioneer Mills, together with theChief Engineer and Carpenter on a charge of vio-lating the Sabbath of the previous week. Theviolation referred to was, repairing a break in tbesteam-wor- m of the vacuum pan which had beendiscovered the day previous, and tbe neglect torepair which on the ensuing day, would not onlyhave caused detention in work, but actual loss, asthere was lying in the tanks at the time partiallycooked juice representing about Beven tons ofsugar, a great part if not all of which, would havesoured with another day's delay.

Compare these facts, and the fact of the arrestwith the fact, that like necessary work has for tbelast fifteen years been performed openly and withthe knowledge of the authorities on the Sabbathof almost every week during tbe grinding season,and to any one of common capacity, it must appear as a reasonable inference that some incentivemore potent than a desire to perform his duty, orconformity with religious scruples must have actu-ated the Sheriff (Mr. Everett) in this affair. Whilenearly every plantation on the island of Maui isevery Sunday violating in an equal degree, ourSabbath law (with the fact well known to theSheriff) prosecution is alone reserved for the Pro-prietor of the Pioneer Mills and his employees, andthat in a case where tbe question of necessity couldnot but be apparent upon the most superficial ex-amination. In more than one way has bis.hostilityto the interests of this concern been previouslyshown, and this case should be sufficient to indicatethe necessity of having the Sheriff's office filled bysome one not only competent to fulfill its functionsbut to act without malice toward any. If I am notmistaken there are many both here and elsewhereon this island who would say amen to a rotationin this particular office. Equity.

P. S. After writing the above a decision hasbeen given by the Police' Magistrate clearing theparties accused.
