THE LEGISLATURE.
Sevenfy-Ninfh Day.
WEDNESDAY, Aug. 81.

WEDNESDAY, Aug. 81.
The House opened as usual at 10
A. NJ.
Rep. Kanealii moved the appoint
ment of a committee to notify Her
Majesty of the vote taken in the
House.
Rep. Smith explained that that was
not the proper course.
Noble Cornwell said he had been
requested to inform the House that
the Cabinet were writing out their
designations, and that Her Majesty
would send a message to the House in
few minutes.
The President said it would be out
of order for the House to appoint a
committee to notify Her Majesty.
Noble Thurston said that the proper
course was for the outgoing Ministry
to notify Her Majesty of what had
taken place, and present their resigna-
tons at the same time. He had just
read that Lord Salisbury had in
formed Queen Victoria that vote of
want of confidence had passed Parlia-
ment, and advising her to call Mr..
Gladstone.
Rep. Ashford asked what guarantee
we had that our Cabinet would do so.
They were not made of the same ma
terial.
Noble Thurston said we should not
assume that they were going to vio-
late the Constitution.
Rep. Ashford moved the House con-
slider the unfinished business 1.-THE
Judiciary Act) while waiting for the
Royal message.
Rep. Smith said that would not be
suitable. No business should be taken
up. The contest was over, and il
would do no harm to wait a few
minutes.
Rep. Bush agreed with the member
from Koloa. The House could wait 8
few minutes.
At 10: 80 Am. Minister Parker ell.
tered and stated that he was commits
stoned by Her Majesty to inform the
House that Her Majesty's Minister:
| had resigned, and that Her Majesty
| had requested them to keep their port
| folios until their successors were
appointed.
The House adjourned at 1890 AN
| until Thursday morning.

A BIT OF HISTORY.
A Document that Assisted in the
Killing of Previous
Scheme.

During the Gibson reign there
was a bill introduced in the Legis-
lature to legalize lottery, and
great things were promises by its
projectors to all who would assist
in obtaining it-not forgetting the
~resentatives themselves. One
morning the following document
was found on the desk OF every
Noble and Representative, and the
ultimate result was the bill was
killed
TO THE REPRESENTATIVES OF THE
HAWAIIAN PEOPLE.
You are asked to incorporate and
legalize lottery, or systematized
gambling.
What are these lotteries, and what
have they done?
They take small sums from the
thousand to give large sums to the
few.
They take from the poor to give to
the rich.
They directly and invariably en-
courage every form OF dishonesty,
from the defalcations Of confidential
agents to the petty pilfering OF do
nestle servants. Every Chinaman
is born gambler, and would sooner
steal INVENTIVE cents from his EN-
ployer than go without ticket.
In the old countries OF Europe,
after the experience of two or three
centuries, lotteries were put down by
law, as being productive of evil only.
In the United States, lotteries are
illegal in every State but perhaps
one or two. In England. to adver-
tise lottery entails on newspaper
q fine OF $3.50. Lotteries are almost
unknown now except in Cuba, Loul
siana, and few minor States. And
this is what you are asked to intro
duce in these islands, where hitherto
they have been illegal, since there
was a written law in the kingdom
Mobiles and Representatives You
are invited to establish here an insti
tuition which has been ANONYMOUSLY
expelled from every well-governed
country in both hemispheres as an
unmitigated curse.
Who will benefit ! Only those who
hope to draw heavy salaries and

Der of tickets, the holder Of one ticket

by yourselves can render this I'M
guilty impossible.

Representatives to do their duty ant
save the country from this curse.

Coolies for Nicaraega.

From a brief statement in the
Yokohama advices, it is believed
that the Nicaragua Canal Com
pany intends to push its work with
Japanese labor. The statement is
that the Nicaragua government is
negotiating for treaty with Japan
so that the former government can
import coolie laborers on the same
terms as Mexico.
This is move in the interest of
the Central American coffee plan
ters. The experiment with Japan
csc laborers in Hawaii has been
highly successful, the coolies work
ing for $40 a month, with only rice

AUCTION ROOM CABINET.
The Sale of the Gable Company
Changes the Present Aspect.

The Sale of the Gable Company
Changes the Present Aspect.
The Hawaiian Pacific Gable Co.
is title that at once inspires con-
fdence, because it includes the
word Pacific" All companies en-
joying that word are prosperous, to
wit, the Pacific Glue Factory; the
Pacific Poi Factory, and others too
numerous to mention.
The Gable Company had been
advertised for sale for some weeks,
and the urbane auctioneer, j..
Facetious Morgan, entered his
place of business yesterday morn
ing in a business-like manner and
gave orders for the boy to dust
everything in sight, including the
bronze statue of Lydia Pinkham,
because the sale would take place
at noon and large crowd was ex-
pected to be present to bid high tor
the cable, as the promoters OF
fleeing lottery scheme had prom
ised $4,000 a month subsidy, OF
something like that sum, for a
cable. Contrary to expectations.
however, when the hour of noon
arrived the aforementioned large
crowd did not appear, and finally
the property Of the Hawaiian Cable
Co. was sold for a song, notwith.
standing the fabulous subsidy
offered.
During the afternoon James (fo,
want of something better to do
gathered his henchmen together in
the auction room Office and decided
to name the new Cabinet, and here
it is:
l.. B. Kerr, Minister of Finance
Jas. F. Morgan, Minister of For
; eign Affairs.
Harry Armitage, Minister of In
terror.
Morgan's boy, Attorney-General
J. W. Luning, Minister of Delin'
quents.
Mr.. Luning's Office is new one
and has been created to fill a Ions
want felt, or a long felt want-ol

years and six month in the penitenti-
airy, Ezra Croft was sentenced to two
years, James Broderick got the heavi
est sentence Of the lot, five years. Am

OF His Movements is Made by Hugh
O'Donnell.
Boston, Aug. Hugh O'Donnell,
of Homestead, Pa, who arrived in this
city today, said in an interview this
evening that he saw no reason for
throwing such cloak of mystery over
his movements. Since he left Home
stead he had not tried to seclude him
self. He said:
1.-THE mission that brings me east is
something that it would not be judi
cious to talk about just yet. Regarding
the lockout it has just begun, and the
end is not in sight. The Carnegie steel
and iron company may have thousand
men or more. but that does not prove
that the union men are defeated. 1t
requires much skill and practice to max
competent workmen. Incompetent
men can put the Carnegie company to
great loss OF trouble. In the works
where machinery plays such an impor
tant part, every man has his place and
his absence has the same effecc as the
breaking Of cog or Wheel Mr..
O'Donnell seemed perfectly unconcern,
ed about his arrest; and stated that he
thought the arrests were made with
the hope that the rank and file would
become frightened and surrender to
Carnegie and Frick Internationally.
ssBut," said he, sit has edited the men
and made them more determined to
win, AS for myself, L have no concern
1t can be proven that l counseled peace
and did everything in my power to pre-
vent violence. Even the Pinkerton
detectives acknowledge this, and many
of them have thanked me personally
for the part played. So far as the
charge that the men Of Homestead do
not know where am is concerned, all
that can be said is that am in daily
communication with the advisory COM
mittee, and receive reports as to the
situation.

language singularly clear, but the at
tractive feature of his sermons, from an
artistic standpoint, is the rich imagery
drawn from prairie and border life. The
camp fire and the lonely trail, the mus
tang corral and the rude encounters Of
savage beasts and scarcely less savage
men, all come in as illustrations and
mingle strangely with Biblical sentences
and scenes. To his mind Sinai and the
wilderness, Jordan, Jerusalem and Geth-
semane are as real as the Ozark noun
tains and Texan plains, and incidents
from life on the latter vividly illustrate
Bible references to the former.

scarcely one is now known in public
life, and of the Original abolitionists"
a quiet old farmer or banker or very re-
tired business man here and there is
found, and of the whole lot not one is
ouieter than George Schneider, presi-
dent of the National bank of Illinois.
This gray haired Chicagoan is soft
spoken and benevolent looking, yet he
was a revolutionist and soldier IN Ger
many, and had his printing office mobbed
in 1856 for "abolitionism. He was
born Dec. 13, 1928, in Rhenish Bavaria,
attained classical education at an early
age and joined the "Young Germany
movement of 1847-8 with Carl Schurz,
Dr.. Kinkel and many others since noted.
After the defeat of the revolutionists he
escaped to France and thence to Amer
lea. became editor of The Neue Zeit in
st. Louis, and was one of the most ac-
tive in that crusade which brought the
German exiles as body into the anti
slavery movement.
The German editors had two great ad-
vantages-all their supporters had been
antislavery men at home, and the Ian
guage in which their papers were pub
lished prevented any great attention be-
ing drawn to them by the violent men of
the other party. Nevertheless, the Office
of The Neue Zeit was attacked in 1856.
Editor Schneider was an active man IN
that famous meeting in Chicago, Jan. %,
1854, which 'sinstructed" Congressman
John Wentworth to fight the Nebraska
bill. The result was that the active
young Democrats Of northern Illinois
nearly all became Republicans in 1876.
Mr.. Schneider was delegate at large
from Illinois to the Republican national
convention of 1856, and had much to do
in keeping ....Knownothingism" out Of
the platform; also in that of 1880, which
nominated Abraham Lincoln, who ap-
pointed him consul general to Denmark.
After the war he became banker and
has prospered.
