AFFAIRS OF HAWAII.
Claus Spreckels is the Virtual
RuIer-The Queen
H6urehead

Captain Harry Wilson, of Mr..
William Dunbar's bark Kitty,
smoked a fragrant Manila cigar
yesterday afternoon and chatted
pleasantly about affairs in the Ha-
waiian Islands, over which Queen
Kapiolani rules. He sailed from
that port December Dist, and ar
rived in Portland brimful of news.
when left the islands," said
Captain Wilson, "there were indi-
cations of trouble. The American
residents, who are sanguine, say
with a confident air that by and by
the islands will be annexed to the
United States, while the English
declare with equal confidence that
the Hawaiian government will re-
main as it is. [ believe that the
islands will eventually be an indie
pendent republic. The United
States would gain nothing by gain
ing possession of them, as they are
continually racked by internal dis
sension. No two men have the
same view of the political situa-
ton. One thinks this way and the
other that way, and so it goes. So
far as the English are concerned,
they apparently do not care one
way or the other. They are conf
dent that the islands will not be
annexed to the United States"
'Is Claus Spreckels' influence in
the kingdom so great as repre-
sented?"
eyes, indeed, and more than that.
Spreckels is virtually the ruler of
the country. He owns the majority
of the sugar plantations, that is to
say he has them under his thumb.
In other words, he is the power be-
hind the throne"
"Who will win in the long run?"
''There are so many different fac
tions that it is difficult for the man
who has been on the islands but a
short time to form an opinion. All
are fighting for individual interest,
every man for himself. There is a
very strong clique against the pres
ent government, and [ would not
be surprised if there should be seri-
Gus trouble at the forthcoming cleo
tons. The Chinese look for it, and
are arming themselves with revol.
vers and rifles. There are a great
many Chinese on the islands and
everybody, foreigners and all, are
against them. They own all the
large stores and undersell the Eu
ropean and native dealers. Besides
their laborers are working for less
than the natives, which has a gooc
deal TO do with the prevailing dis
content.
"When the United States cruise,
Charleston left Honolulu" contin
ued Captain Wilson, "there was
much speculation as to her destire
ton. Many rumors were afoat, thu
chief of them being that she wa
bound for China to protect tn,
American residents and other prop
erty. Hawaii also takes great in
terest in Americas controversy
with Chilli"
Captain II. Wilson just as joll.
and witty as ever, and is accom-
panied by his wife, a handsom
young Englishwoman whom h
succeeded in inducing to MARI,

Chairman Diggs first introduced Mr..

received the closest attention for nearly
two hours He devoted most OF his speech
TO a forcible and logical discussion OF the
present iniquitous tariff laws. showing
clearly that all our woes and distresses

and left the most profound impression

held up to ridicrle a printed circular Of
Julian Rufn's, which he lately issued
feebly defining and defending his position
He added that If Ruffin kept on he
would finally break his neck. His presen-
tation Of the Force and Tariff bills was
particularly strong and convincing.
Both speeches were appauded, and the
verdict was that they were among the
best delivered here during the campaign
The absence of the Third party speakers
was particularly noticeable, especially as
