The Government organ now comes
forward with some very original tactics,
which, like most of the Government
campaign methods are characterized by
thin logic and colossal assertion.
Since Mr. Spreckels name has been
virtually dropped out of politics by the
Opposition press, it has been the con-
slant endeavor of the Government or
gan TO get it back again. 1t would
"puzzle" more than s'the sailor" to un-
derstand what the Spreckels-Govern-
ment organ can gain for itself or its
bosses, by the assertion that "the Oppo-
sition press of Honolulu, without excep
ton, have been writing down the Ameri-
can line, and exulting prospectively at
its being driven out Of the Islands
trade, A more deliberate campaign
lie has not been uttered during this cleo
tion fight, for the year $50. 1t looks
very much like the Government leaders
we're biting off their noses to spite
their faces We defy the Government
organ to point out line in the DAILY
Honolulu PRESS since its commence
ment, that has been written against
either "the American line" or against
Mr.. Claus Spreckels. We believe that
Mr.. Spreckels is too shrewd business
man to indorse such statements, which
his good judgment would Immediately
tell would prejudice the public mind
against his business methods. If Mr.
Claus Spreckels had been in town we
do not believe the unscrupulous lead
ers and paid electioneers futhe Gov
ernment would have dared use his
private business affairs, with the ''purely
American enterprise" connected there
with, for the purpose of giving lie
political effect If fight on the ship
ping question does come up, it will not
be political fight, and in case il
should come Mr.. Spreckels will be the

"A Famous German.

The Times Berlin correspondent says
Dec. 9th, was red-letter day in the
history of German art, as we'll as of the
worship of human merit, which is rapid
ly rising in this country to the rank of
religion. The Pantheon of German
genius is already pretty well crowded,
but conspicuous place in it will always
be held by Adolph Menzel, whose 10th
birthday was celebrated with great pub
lie honor and ceremony, as that of
aPictorum Germanorum qui nunc sunt
facile princeps"-to quote the words of
the diploma by which the University
of Berlin conferred upon him the homo
rary degree of doctor. A painters
fame, during his lifetime at least, must
necessarily to great extent be local or
national but the name of Menzel must
surely be known in England in connec-
ton with the engravings which have re-
called and preserved so vividly the
military memories that centre round
the person of Frederick the Great 1t
is on his magnificent illustrations of the
works and times of Frederick the Great
that Menzels fame will mainly repose
but his productiveness in kindred fields
and methods of art has been prodigious,
and the exhibition of some of his works
that was opened by the Crown Prince
and Princess formed in itself goodly

oil and water-colours, etchings, draw
ings, and every other variety of pictorial
art, though by no means giving COM
plete idea of the extent of their authors
creatiyeness. Menzel is entirely self
made, and to a great extent also self
taught man; and to what height he
has risen in the estimation of his coun-
trymen was evidenced by the piles of
praise offerings that were laid at his
feet; by the serenading which began
the day and the public banquet which
closed it; by the autograph missive
of congratulation from the Emperor to
the septuagenarian artist, and the felici-
tations that we're personally conveyed
to him by the crown Prince, who
donned his Silesian dragoon uniform in
honour of the PROVENCE whence Menzel
comes by the civic, academic and
artistic deputations from far and near
which kept tramping in to the painters

ted documents which conferred upon
him the freedom of Berlin and Breslau

bouquets and baskefuls of kilograms,

incessant current for twelve hours

The disgraceful tactics which Fac
totum Hayselden has been playing up
on the soldiers, under the shadow of a
lie, which has extended itself along
the whole of the official political lead
ers, until it has dropped at the very
threshold of the government build
ing, where Fraud sits in state and
threatens the common welfare of the
country,-these disgraceful tactics are
now being hushed under tropical
verbiage of political falsifying, and
the government leaders, when they see
that they will be compelled to give up
the certificates, are now engaged in

deed we did MT, good citizens!" The
last denial and new version of an old

clare that the official company he is
keeping will cast its shadow even over
his statement. II never sent one OF

The captain, however, acknowledges
that he is Withholding the certificates
from his men until the other com
panies get theirs. The captain further
states that he is acting without author
ity in the matter. The captain must
acknowledge that he is shouldering a
large responsibility, and that he ex-
poets the people to shoulder larger
intellectual responsibility if they carry
off his statements without putting an
interrogation point after them. The

ments. and we prefer to believe them,

BY the way, the Government leaders
are not conhning themselves to bull
doing the Independent press, but
have been attempting bulldozing and
intimidation in the meetings held by
the Opposition on the other Islands.

by the gentlemen of the Opposition,
while Mr. L. A. Thurston had the floor,
and was discoursing on the $4,000

while he (Kapena) was at Wailuku,
rode over on horseback, having to foot
it part Of the way OIL account Of the
horse giving out, but reached Lahaina
in time for the meeting. While Mr..
Thurston was speaking, Kapena
jumped up when he heard the charge
repeated and yelled at is lie, lie,
le" and endeavored, with a few
friends, to drown out what Mr.. Thurs
ton was saying. Mr.. Thurston called
the attention Of the chairman to the
disorderly conduct of Kapena, and
said that the Minister could have an
opportunity to answer when he finished
his speech. Rev. Mr. Pail, the chair
man, then called the blatant Minister
to order. When Kapena saw bulldoz-
ing would not do, he is reported to
have struck theatrical attitude and
to have whined "Lahaina, oh, Laha
ina are you goin gback on me, too p"
As nobody responded it is supposed
that the case was one of ef tn Brute |
The Minister then sat down In disgust
and when the "bulldozer" at last real
lied that he had failed to break up the
meeting as he had threatened, he
crawled into his political hole and
pulled the hole in after him. Govern
ment tactics fail to work in every case.

were led to smell large "rat," and an

turning defeat into victory. One Of our

having a particular liking for mlnce

after this detail OF us Wisconsin boys
were ordered out on fatigue duty, aud
