uCIPATING PEACE
LONDON, April 16.-The Post has reason to believe
that the Government has received unsatisfac-
tory dispatches from St. Petersburg. Rus
sia insists on maintaining the positions
which she has already occupied, and inti-
mates that unless England holds herself respon-
sIbe for the acquescence of the Ameer III these adj
vances. General Komaroff will advance and seize
Herat. The Post also hears that the Afghuns at
PeDjdeh were surprised by the recent attack and q
ruthless massacre followed
The st. Petersburg correspondent of The Times says
that alarming rumors are circulating and there is
n strong impression that further conflicts will soon
be reported from the Afghan frontier, as it is
thought unlikely that the Afghans will allow their
recent defeat to pass without seeking revenge.
The Vienna IagbidH says "The last days of Eng
lands power would De also the last days of
European liberty. One cannot understand the
German sympathy with Russia, whose overgrowth
would certainly imperil Germany"
Notwithstanding The POsfs rumors. the other
papers here aud on the Continent, including those
publish ed at ST. Petersburg, all express the opn-
ion that the prospects of peace are brighter
The Aews says that nothing has occurred TO qualify
the hopes of peace expressed
The Standard says that even rumors, in relation
to the conditions of tho settlement are afloat, and
that he Ambassadors at London have informed
their respective Governments that they consider a

his longing ewes since first he took the
contract of supplying endorsements for

of the Courts, and ignores vested rights.

West, the Board 'bit off more than 1t could

explanation, Mr.. Minister backed water

are TO have advisory power only; IN fact
that the whole meaning of the cir

assistance, on the part of the commission
ers. in settling differences between en-
ployers and laborers. This Is well enough,
and probably the planters will not object
to the execution of the explanation al
though there Is no law compelling them
to do SO. A compliance with the '.explan-
alton is simply matter of policy, and
the Trustees of the p L. q 5. Co. have
concluded that it was the best policy for
the planters to abide by the explanation
so long as no attempt Is made to carry out
the programme indicated in the circular.
They have in no wise endorsed the cIrcu-

the endorsement of so much as yellow

as 1t did a year ago. Financial en-

this country and it is distinct challenge
against the proceedings of this admins
tration.
Ten Plantations in the Hilo District
have given a unanimous vote that ''Con
sular Courts and "ExtraterTitorial juris-
dictionn are entirely "uncalled for, extra
Judicial and unconstitutional" Ten plant
ations say that they regard the carrying
ont OF the provisions OF the Circular of
August 10th, issued by the Board of I'm
migration "as the first step in annulllng
the independence OF the Hawaiian King
dom And finally the gentlemen who
represent one of the most important dis
tricts in the islands-thst Hilo which Is
described so eloquently by Miss Bird, Miss
Gordon Cumming, by every writer TO these
Islands: that Hilo whose hospitality so
many foreigners have experienced, that
Hilo which subscribes its name to tins
strong set OF resolutions-say that they
enter an earnest protest against the clrcu-
lar IN toto.
These resolutions are signed by Alr. T..
c. Kennedy. and they come the stronger
from his pen in that he has been used by
the Government organ as an argument on
the Japanese troubles at Paia, Maui. MIR.
Kennedy is man of good common sense;
his letter relative to his japanese was
written in good faith, and as such was
published IL the Planters Monthly. There
never was any intention in his mind that
his letter should be used in the manner 1t
was used by the Government organ. To
find his name attached TO the document
we have been reviewing Is proof positive
Of the straight forwardness of our planters.
What they see is right they are willing
to commend: and so Mr.. Kennedy, find
ing his Japanese suited him, commended
them. When the planters see wrong
they are quick to let their opinion be
known, and the document which we pub
lish 10 day shows how clearly they under
stand their rights That document Is
signed by the same name as praised the
Japanese labUrers.
There could not be a better showing of
the position of the planters and that of the
Government. The band of "sore heads,
TO which the Government are ever allud-
ing does not exist, but there is body Of
men il this kingdom who intend TO see
right done, who intend lawfully to have
their right.
