The game Of polo between the Provi-
dence and Worcester teams in Music hall
last evening was one OF the most interest
ing games that have been played there
this season. The visitors seemed to have
things their own way during the first OF
the game, but tho home team got
down to work and at the time
limits the score was o TO 0. The ball was
placed in tho center OF the floor and Rob-
erts secured the rush and drove the ball
into the cage OF the Providence team, but
the ball failed to stay in. IL was not but
few minute later when Murry drove the
ball INTO the Worcester teams cage.

THE GRIP ONCE MORE.
Many Providence People are Ill With the
LisaEroeable Disease.

Again the grip has come to make its an
nual visit and hundreds of the residents of
Providence are suffering with the familiar
feverish cold. Many of the city officials,
especially among the firemen and police
men, are on the sick list and the epidemic
has spread into the stores and manufact-
uring establishments OF the city.
A NEWS man called upon DIR. Capron,
the superintendent OF health, this morn
ing, but be was unable to give any definite
information respecting the prevalence of
the disease. He said that he had heard of
many cases in various parts OF the city,
but as the facts were not reported TO him
as an Official until death had occurred he
did not know how the rate would compare
with that Of previous years.

Mr. Blaine's Views as TO Hawaii,

James G. Blaine, then Secretary
of State, wrote the following dis
patch to the United States Minis
ter to Hawaii December 1, 1882:
"The United States firmly be-
lleves the position of the Hawaiian
Islands as the key to the American
Pacific demands neutrality, to
which end it will earnestly coop
crate with the native government,
and if through any cause the main
tenance of such position of neutral
ity should be found by Hawaii i'm
practicable this government would
then unhesitatingly meet the al
tered situation by seeking avowedlv
an American solution of the grave
issues presented"
November 19, 1881, Mr.. Blaine
wrote to the United States Minister
to Hawaii as follows:
"The government of the United
States has always ayowed and now
repeats that under no circumstances
will it permit the transfer of the
territory or sovereignty of these
islands to- any of the great Euro
pean powers. It is needless to re-
state the reasons upon which that
determination rests. It is too obyi-
Gus for argument that the posses
sion of these islands by a great
maritime power would not only be
a dangerous diminution of the just
and necessary influence of the
United States in the waters of the
Pacific, but in case of international
difficulty it would be a positive
threat to interests too large and
important to be lightly risked. =

THE FUTURE OF HA WAII." ="

The following communication
was written some months since, by
one of the members of the last
Legislature, long before the late
revolution occurred. It contains
some thoughts on home production
and industry, which are as appli-
cable now as when written, and
which are well to bear in mind.
Mr.. EDITOR: In discussing the
Future of Hawaii" we must not
neglect Hawaii's present; and when
looking at her geographical position,
as center point of Pacific commerce
and Honolulu's prospective share in
that trade, we must not ignore the
welfare of other parts of the group.
And while encouraging foreign
traffic and travel, we must not neg
lect home production. home develop
ment, home prosperity-the welfare
of all of Hawaii's citizens. This
should and must engage much of our
attention, as home production and
consumption will produce more trade
for our merchants and more comforts
and happiness for our people if prop
erly fostered, than will ever come to
them from the ocean.
While foreign commerce may be
considerable, comparatively small
number of our people would realize
anything from the business trans
acted, as, aside from home trade, the
business must consist of unloading,
storing and reshipment of mer-
chandise, manufactured and con-
sumed elsewhere. Such business,
though large, will require but
few laborers, and still fewer mer-
chants to handle it. Such business
can not make prosperous people.
80, while foreign trade and travel
may become considerable, we can
only look upon them as auxiliaries to
our prosperity, home production
being our main dependence. By
home production alone we have en-
Joyed prosperity, and no doubt il we
prosper in the future we must depend
upon home development and re-
sources for business, employment,
peace and plenty to all our people.
Our depressed condition is begin
ming to be felt and must continue
with increasing force for some time

The boy who is put off with the
tallow dip in the mountain cabin or
the wee taper in the city tenement
will in all probability seek the store
in the canyon or the saloon in the
city for their brightness, because
there is that within him which leads
him straight to a brilliant light,
