ing away to mere streak in the dis
tance. Confusion reigned every
where. So closely were the contest
ants packed together that the start
was hazardous in the extreme. Horse
men were unseated, wagons were
overthrown and pedestrians pros
trated in the mad rush.
The cowboys on their horses took
the lead. They had gone but a short
distance when they spread out over
the prairie, and, dismounting, set
fire to the thick prairie grass, hoping
thus to turn aside those who were
following them. The fire spread
rapidly at first, but was soon stopped
by deep gully, which parallels the
Cherokee line three miles south of
here. Horses could not be urged
through the flames, and many were
turned back, but no damage was done
by the fire, further than to destroy
the grass and impede the racers.
The serried ranks were soon broken,
and the rushing boomers spread out
over the strip, those best mounted
being in the lead. There were col
lisions and other mishaps here and
there; the breaking down of vehicles,
dashing not only the "boomers" but
their hopes to the ground, and horses
refusing to cross deep gullies and
riders abandoning them and continu-
ing the race on foot, or making long
detours to avoid bad ground. Here
was neck and neck race between
horsemen who had chosen the same
town lot or quarter section of farm
ing land. Stumbling over rocks,
wading streams and climbing pre-
ciptous banks, on they go. The
chivalry which relinquishes places in
the line to women all disappears in
the scramble for actual results. The
women had taken their chances with
the men in the race, and it is to their
credit that some of them made as
good showing in the struggle as the
alleged lords of creation, reaching
their goal in time to pre-empt the
desired bit of mother earth.
James H. Hill of Kingdom, N. j.,
was shot and instantly killed by a
soldier at the southwest corner of the
Chilocco reservation. He started into
the strip before the signal was given.
The soldiers warned him to stop, but
he did not heed orders and they fired
upon him. He had $500 and it was
turned over to the sheriff.
In the race many men were injured
and some were killed of the latter
two were murdered, one stabbed. and
the other shot through the head.
There are many dead horses on the
prairie.
Four of the new town sites have
populations estimated at 5000 each
and the others boast of populations
ranging from 1000 to 5000. Every de-
sirable claim has at least one
claimant and many have two or four.

Thousands of Boomers Set

BUENOS AYRES, sept. li.-PrlVate
dispatches announce that sailors from
the rebel warships have practically
captured Rio Janeiro and driven out
President Peixoto and the govern
ment. The arsenal and custom
house and the town of Nictheroy,
opposite Rio, are in the hands of the
rebels.
The official advices corroborate the
private news and announce the re-
peated bombardment the past few
days OF Rio Janeiro. Nictheroy was
shelled time and again and the garri-
son was finally compelled to sur
render after gallant resistance.
The damage done by the lombard
ment of Rio and Nictheory is much
greater than was at first believed or
admitted. 1t is reported that after
the surrender the garrison and civil
guards joined the insurgents, who
have received large additions to the
fleet.
The rebel fleet now numbers nine
vessels, and these have been re-
enforced by the naval forces at Ca
bras Island in Rio Bay. Fort Cabras
is one of the principal defenses of
Rio. The prison on the island, in
which most of the high class and
political prisoners were confined, has
been thrown open and the inmates
liberated. They joined the rebels.
Fort Villegagnon is neutral. 1t is
probable the garrison will soon join
the insurgents. Other advices say it
has already done so and the rebels
are having everything their own way.
Fort Santa Cruz is still loyal. The
insurgents are incensed at its resis-
tance, and propose to wreak ven-
geance on the garrison when it sur
renders. The moderation of the in
surgents SO far is largely due to the
fact that the foreign warships have
restraining influence. The garrison
at Fort Santa Cruz must soon sur
render, being short of provisions.
Private advices go further, and say
the rebels have landed strong forces
and taken possession of the custom
house. The insurgents are receiving
re-enforcements from all sides, and
money and provisions are being
placed at their disposal. They are
confident OF ultimate success.
The president and his government
have been driven out of Rio and are
now encamped with royal troops at
Santa Ana, twelve miles from Rio,
awaiting the rebel attaak. Neverthe-
less, the president is not disheartened.
Congress has passed vote sustaining
him, and he still has hope that the
provinces will remain loyal and rally
to his support.
On the other hand it is asserted
that the president knows better than
any one else does how futile are his
hopes of saving himself, and that he
is even now endeavoring to make
terms with the insurgents, but has
received reply that nothing but un-
conditional surrender would be ac-
cepted. The insurgents are prepar-
ing to march upon Santa Ana to try
and capture the president.

WHY ANNEXATION GROWS.

There is no doubt that Hawaiian
public sentiment is gradually but
irresistably tending towards annex
alton to the United States as the
ultimate and logical solution of
our problems. One of the most en-
couraging signs, is the fact that
more and more of the intelligent
and conservative Hawaiians are
wheeling into line. They are con-
vinced that their interests and the
best welfare of the whole country
will be subserved by complete
political alliance with our great
neighbor. They have learned to
distrust talk about a Hawaiian
republic or something else. The
first surprise having passed, they
feel, with all others who are ac-
quainted with our conditions, that
any permanent restoration of the
monarchy is out of the question
and that in any case it would not
be the best thing for Hawaii. They
have become annexationists, and
more are turning that way, because
they are convinced that under tn,
American flag only can we hav,
permanent government with assur
ed order.
The foreign community is, i
possible, growing more unanimous
In favor of annexation. Othe
plans are proposed-a Hawaiian
republic; a republic with a pro

tectorate by the United States;
joint protectorate. These plans ara
talked about with varying support,
none are regarded as offering the
best solution for our affairs.
The revolution of 1898 was ac-
complished by the people. 1t was
accomplished for annexation to
America. Not because a few sell
fish men thought their personal
ends might thereby be accom-
plished, but because the hard
teaching of experience had con-
vinced all that the Hawaiian mon
archy could no longer give the best
and safest government to the coun-
try. All are equally convinced
that anything short of annexation
will be only a delusion and a snare.
With a republic and a protectorate
We should be in danger of the estab-
lishrnent of an oligarcy and in
some things that condition might
be quite as bad as the later years
Of the monarchy. Are those who
risked life and property and all
they held dear last January, ready
to give up annexation for such a
prospect? With such "a govern
ment the contract labor system
would be protected, and the sugar
plantations might enjoy certain
degree of prosperity. In this
prosperity the whole commun-
ity in a greater or less degree
would share. But there can be
no question that with annex
alton while tie sugar interest
might suffer temporarily in accom-
modating itself to the changed
conditions, its prosperity would
eventually be quite as great and
would rest upon a solid basis.
With annexation every business
interest would receive a new life
and impetus. A new population
with new capital and energy would
flow in. The position of every
person-be he Hawaiian or for
eigner would be improved. The
life blood of true freedom would
be diffused through the veins of
the whole country. 1t is for this
ultimate result that all patriotic
hearts must desire. 1t is for this
that the far-sighted and shrewd
man of business viii work. 1t is
for this that the revolution of jan
uary was accomplished. No one
can afford to be turned aside for
anything short of that.

MUTIJATING BOOKS.

A late number of the Scientific
American contains an article on
this subject which should be read
by the book mutilators in our own
public library. The outrages COM
mitted by Vandals in this direction
seem almost incredible. In the
Astor Library, in New York City,
whole pages have been cut out
from books, slipped into the pocket
and carried off. Such conduct on
the part of individuals who have
culture and taste enough to read
and enjoy seems utterly incredible
and would suggest some form of
mania Yet it is not without a
parallel in the actions of those
tourists who are known to carry
about little hammer in order to
knock off choice specimens from
famous buildings, statues and other
monuments of art.
Vandalism in the Honolulu Lii
brary has not yet gone to such
lengths as elsewhere, but the
Librarian has wisely distributed
notices which should serve as a
warning to evil-doers. The Hon
lulu Public Library is one of our
chief treasures, and it is part Of
the duty of every good citizen to
do what lies in his power to pre-
serve and enlarge it. and extend
the sphere of its usefulness.
