A Translation.

To the Editor of I he Homo Rule Rcpublican : Aloha—Will yon kindly insert the following communication in your paper, so that the people from Hawaii to Kauai may see it and take warning. It is this: There are two young and able-bodied men who are making their living by going around with brazen faces, shamelessly soliciting subscriptions in the name of the Church Qf the Hoomana Naauao, with a paper purporting to authorize them as a committee to solicit subscriptions for that religious body. The names of the men pursuing this criminal course are Rev. E. Ivekipi, who was ordained a minister for Pnmvela. Maui, but is now a discredited one, and has left (he holy nnd high office which he swore before Jehovah to uphold, and is now seeking a livelihood in any way possible. Therefore, the public is hereby warned to beware of this vagabond, who is tramping the

country m his own interests. The name of the olier person soliciting subscriptions in the same manner and under the same false colors is another tramp, ].ono Kaiaiki by name, lie has been doing this sohcitng under like false pretenses for over three years, and the wnter hereby warns the people not to listen to him again when he appears before you with the same old posters. Beware of these two imposters. The writer has been informed that Loiio Kaaiaiki has been extending his oj>erations outside of the city of Honolulu, as he was getting too well known in the city. Yours in very truth, et v -ex , , w * eibikane. Jvaliu, Honolulu, Nov. y, 1901.

The S. S. China sails at 12 o'clock noon to-morrow. Her Majesty Queen Liliupkalam leaves ,by her for a visit to her friends in the East. We congratulate our august Governor, S B. Dole, and hope that the liquid refreshments dispensed at the Moana Hotel and Waikiki Inn were quite equal to those of other bars he may have visited, and that the spirit displayed by Mr. Freeland as a mixologist entitles him to a license. We welcome back our genial countryman, Col. Sam Per, --er, and hope that the wiles and allurements of the mainland has not Ijad a permanent effect on our gallant fr : 2nd, and that Hawaii, as ever, is the dearest land yet to any son of hers. We also welcome back our affable Secretary of the Territory and ex-"Acting Governor/' Henry E. Cooper. We hope the air of Washington has been beneficial to him, and that he returns to his duties with a broad comprehension of the duties required and expected of Territorial Secretary.
