THE irrepressible and versatile New
York Sun is out in new and agree able
statement Of the situation, and eucour.
aging the novel conclusion that Hawaii
is under protectionate, no matter by
what name we call it. The Sun says:
Mr.. Blount had no instructions TO
assist in the restoration Of monarchy
more than this he had instructions. as
he has unequivocally declared, TO assure
the provisional government that the
United States would allow no foreign
interference in Hawaii The policy OF
the administration, therefore is neither
to set up the overturned throne, nor To
permit any other nation TO set il up.
Bear in mind that flag up or flag down,
Hawaii is TO day under an American pro
tectorate, whatever word may be used in
describing the relations of our govern.
ment TO the islands
Surely that conclusion should satisfy
everybody. We can describe the situa-
ton in our own pet phrases, and still
the situation will remain the same II
that case. both countries are satisfied, and
every body is at liberty to ask for any
thing he does not see Meantime, Blount
is quiet, Cleveland is composed, tn,
Hawaiians are mlnding their own bust
ness and the Spreckels syndicate is moi

WRITING for the Engineering Maga.
zine concerning the element of fear as an
invitation to cholera DR.. John Roosa, of
New York, says:
During an epidemic Of any kind each
individual should endeavor, as indeed he
should under any circumstances, to
maintain his mental equilibrium, in
other words, to keep cool II is very
difficult in our time to accomplish this,
for sthe simple reason that some Of the
daily journals think it their duty TO print
sensational head lines, and sometimes
sensational paragraphs, which have very
little actual foundation, but which eX-
cite and terrify the timid and
sometimes even the brave hearted The
writer was once in a foreign country
where an epidemic was prevalent. He
never knew how violent 10 was until he
received the newspapers from his own
country describing IT,. Such an effect
did they have upon his friends that he
was written to by several of them, urging
him to fly at once. when, as a matter Of
fact he was in no more danger than he
would have been in his own dwelling at
home. The cholera was only prevalent
among the vicious, incorporate and ig
nOrant classes, who violated the most
ordinary rules of personal cleanliness,
and yet the news sent from the same
places intimated that every individual
even in places entirely free from cholera
was likely soon TO be attacked and swept
of the earth
II is almost an automatic truth that
the country where cholera or any other
disease prevails must present conditions
favorable to spread it; and that the
persons whom the disease attacks must
be in a receptive condition for it. II
such is not the case the disease will not
settle upon either 1t will fly over the
country like the first pigeon Noah sent
out flew on an aerial reconnoissan for a
place to set its foot. Safety against
cholera will be practically absolute with
cleanliness and strict compliance with
the ordinary laws Of health. This includes
Of course, an absence of fear, That
alone is sufficient, often. to invite a dis
ease. 1t is said that hydrophobia anc
yellow fever are almost always tn,

The election may return Reichstag that
will be subservient to the Yielding young
emperor and pass another Army bill
which will satisfy him even better than
the one which has been defeated would

to make Capiivi responsible for
the defeat of the bill and to
blame him for the dissatisfaction
which the majority of the Reichstag
displayed. 1t may be that having as
serted themselves, having produced this
mild crisis, and seeing that Emperor
William is concillatory, the Liberal party
may cease their opposition, in a great
measure, in order not to embarrass the

crisis now does not seem to be important
or dangerous, but simply one more evi
