CAPITAL AND LABOR.
The bitter conflict between the workingman and bis employer, which has

been detrimental to the interests of trade
and productive in many instances of
deeds of violence and cruelly, is still in
progress with no prospect of decline.
This strife of class against class and interest against Interest is to be deplored,
and the outlook is certainly gloomy.
From Belgium extensive strikes are reported, Which have resulted in riots,
bloody conflicts, destruction of property
valued at millions of dollars, and, what
is far worse, in the sacrifice of hundreds
of lives. The cause of the terrible outbreaks mid bloody scenes through which
that land has just passed Is doubtless attributable to the Influence Of anarchist-,
aided by habitual criminals, and similar
results may be looked for wherever anarchy is allowed to carry its red Hag.
Tin- last mail received here reported a

hundred thousand workiugmeu ou strike

in the United State.-. Labor refuses lo be
dominated by capital, and capital to be
dictated to by labor. It thisconllicl could
Lave been avoided the business of the
United States under the sway of industrial peace would have been in excellent
condition. Even now the Internal Revenue receipts for tiie year show an increase of more than three million dollars,
which, had this labor agitation not occurred, would have been twice that
amount. Though the results of this uprising, thus far, are not as disastrous, especially in tiie loss of human lives, as in
Belgium, yet the record'"of events is sad
enough. In Brooklyn, N. V., ihere have
been tights between policemen and worktngmen, In which tne former were injured and the latter clubbed. In the
west, Officers of the law have been shol
down While in the discharge of their legitimate duties. Traffic has been almost

Wholly suspended over thousands of miles
of railway, and millions of dollars in this
way lost to the country. In New York
boycotters have been indicted by the
score, and Socialists have been making
frantic appeals to their men to arm themselves. Capital Is organising and strengthening its forces, and forming protective
associations to tight strikes by lockouts.

MODERATION.
Those who oppose total abstinence from
intoxicating liquors are always warm advocates of "moderation." One of the
vexed questions has long been, What is
moderation ? At last we have a definition. The London Lancet has given one
which we wish every drinking-maii in
Honolulu might read ; though we fear
that few of them would accept tljis definition of "moderation" as given by this
foremost medical journal of the world.
According to The Ltaxeet this is moderation :

SOME DESIRABLE STATISTICS.

The schools feel most keenly the pressure of oui peculiar social conditions.
There is a growing impression among
well qualified observers that not only i-. illiteracy gaining ground as a result largely
of Portuguese Immigration, but that the
percent igeof Illiteracy among Hawaiian*
is steadily Increasing. There anthat Hawaiian children are being neglected in the effort to provide school accommodations for tin- children of other
nationalities. It is desirable that the
public should know just what the real
facts are.
If there are sections that are
specially illiterate, it should lie known,
sought
tin I the causes should be carefully
out and the remedy applied. The needy
sections mast not be neglected. It does
not follow that because l here are successful schools here aud there, therefore the
school system I* being administered lo
the greatest advantage. Neither does it
follow that because 175,000 is expended
for the schools, therefore the money has
been wisely apportioned to tin- needs of

various sections. Prom any published statistics it is Impossible to learn how many
children of school age are in n given district, what the average attendance Is,

What the total expenditure is in said district, what the cod of common-school
education is per capita in such district,
how many teachers are employed, bow
many school buildings there are in the
district, wiial tin- value of school property is in the district, etc.
Without some such statistics u these
how can a body of men apportion the
public money so as to accrue to the public
advantage? Who knows where the needy
districts are? What Inquiry is being

And what remedies are being devised to

It is a bit of political satire that some
Democrats in the States are said to vole
for (Jen. Jackson at every presidential
election. It is to be hoped that a similar
spirit of conservatism may not characterize the administration of school affairs in
this Kingdom. It will not do for us to
pat ourselves on the back and congratulate ourselves on our simple and cheap
system ot" administering school matters.
It would be Wise to collect and tabulate
for public inspection the real facts as indicated above. From statistics now furnished we do not know whither we are

tending.
If certain localities are being neglected
it is not definitely known through any

statistics made public. If certain teachers in remote localities are teaching over

ALEXANDER BALFOUR.

The mail of the loth tilt, brought the
tidings of the death of Mr. Alexander
Balfour, in Liverpool, England.
Prom
the Liverpool Mercury we glean the following particulars, bearing on a life well"
ispent and worthy of imitation :
"In the death of Mr. Alexander
Balfour this city has lost one of its
most practical
philanthropists, who
grudged neither money, time, nor
labor for the promotion of questions
which he considered would ndvii ice the
social, moral and religious Interests of the
people.
In his own person he furnished
another illustration of those son- of Scotland who have crossed the Boiler and
built up great commercial undertakings
by the exercise of the old homely virtues ot sagacity and perseverance.
Born in I,even, in Flfoshlre, he entered a mercantile house in this city
about 1810, and eventually joining
Mr. Stephen Williamson, •another native of the same "kingdoil of Fife,"
became one of the pioneers of the
Valparaiso and latterly theSan Francisco
trade with this port. As a shipowner he
stood in the front rank, recognizing in a
pre-eminent degree his duties to the men
before tin.- mast, and doing everything in
his power 10 ameliorate their condition.
In his own walk of philanthropy he
stood unrivalled, lie was the father and
princely benefactor of the Young Men's
Christian Association. He founded tin;

Liverpool Town Mission enabled the
committee to pay the salaries of several
missionaries, while he had a cottage at
Rossett, close to his own residence at
Mount Alyn, near Wrexham, entirely
for the benefit of ihe agents of the invasion when invalided or in their holiday
time. He was one of the warmest supporters of University College, generous
at its institution, especially in helping to
endow the chairs; as in the kindred
Council of Education, Which has taken
the elementary school* of the city under
its fostering care, he was ever ready with
his purse to provide scholarships and
prise funds for the stimulus of the boys
and girls. To the Liverpool EvaugeUxa*
tion Society, the Medical Mission, Temperance Societies, and Bands of Hope,
especially the great Temperance Society
on the tlual basis connected with the
Church of England, he proved himself a
never-failing friend. In fact, we might
go down the list of almost every philanthropic and charitable Institution in this
city, antl see tiie name of Mr. Alt \ander
Balfour, for he had a substantial sympathy with them ail. Much also of the
good he did in this way never came to
the surface, but lay buried in the secret
recesses of many a grateful heart. In
Church connection he was a Presbyterian,
and yet by his charity and catholicity lie
may be said to have made himself an

honorary member of all denominations,
for all bad experienced his generosity.
Few men ever understood better than
Mr. Balfour the duly antl privilege of
Christian giving, lit- hail found wealth

weight of the moral obligation to make
ot iters sharers in it. He will long in- remembered, as he will certainly be missed,
When works of charity and benevolence
call for the exercise of the liberal hand.
The lesson of his life is high, and he has
left a memorable example of a man who
laid himself out for the good of others."
To this record we may add, that .Mr.
Balfour was an Intimate friend of tho
late Dr. Damon and of the work among
seamen at this port. His heart was also
in the efforts here among the Chinese,
and the same mail which brought the
sad news of his death also brought a
gei eriitts
donation from him for the
Chinese Y. If. C. A. in tiiis city. May
(lie record of hi- life inspire others to do
as he did in lending a helping hand toward every inovemeni that contemplates
