The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1893-07-12

The point raised by the eloquent
fee-taker that the annexation cause
is based upon false reports for
warded to the Harrison admins
tration, seems to be somewhat of
an afterthought, when viewed in
the light of that ex-royal power of
attorney which Mr.. Neumann
carried to Washington in his
pocket, and denied to the
press of the United States that
he had. When Mr.. Neumann as
sumes to speak for the American
people he places himself in posi-
ton quite as false and untenable
as when he uses the plural eve"
to represent the Hawaiian people
in making demands of the Provis-
ional government. Mr.. Neumann
simply represents himself and his
political and royalist clients, but

The Hawaiian Situation.

The exposure of a royalist plot to
restore Liliuokalani under British
auspices, and the occupation of the
palace by the Provisional govern
ment as an executive building and
barracks, are two nails in the coffin
of the old order Of things in Hawaii.
The conspiracy will solidify bust
ness and public opinion in favor of
annexation or protectorate, which
will put an end to all such plotting
The occupation of the palace will
work upon the natives through
their superstition. 1t breaks the
tabu laid upon the building by the
native kahunas, and shows the
people how they have been hum
plugged by these survivals of an
cient heathenism. The Christianity
of the natives is mostly skin deep,
so far as any enlightened idea of
the relations of nature and the
supernatural Is concerned but
they can understand patent facts
when they see that tabu is power
less against the methods of civiliz-
alton. AS they have little of that
spirit which fights against-odds as
a matter of principle, they will
wisely conclude that since tabu is
no good they may as well accept
the new order of things in their
proverbial easy fashion, and not
bother themselves as long as poi is
plenty.-S. F. Bulletin.

July 10, 1898.

There is a season in the year
when most dealers are out Of
certain lines of stock; we get
out occasionally, but wetill up
as quickly as most people.
For instance we've had to dis
appoint some customers for
table cutlery, but now we
have all that is required, and
of the very best quality. We
have also filled up short lines
of the celebrated 1886" Havi-
land, an article that never
grows old.
So many people here like
hashed meat that we have i'm
ported a new style and very
good meat cutter that must
win the admiration of
the celestial who acts as
manager of the culli-
nary department of your
house. And when you are
thinking of something for the
kitchen, think again and get a
tin of Putt polish that will
brighten up every kind of
metal. The water taps, that
usually get dirty with age can
be polished with Putt liquid
so they will be as bright as
gold.
individuals who need some
thing to sharpen their wits or
their razors on can find moth
ing better for the purpose than
one of Emerson's Razor Strops.
They are the best in use and
sell very cheap.
We neglected to mention Ia
our notice of Haviland China
that ourstock now contains an
assortment of chocolate pots
such as are use in every house
where people like to drink
chocolate.
If any of our readers are ad-
mirerS of works of art, their
attention is called to a very
excellent water color sketch
by the late r. c. Barnfeld in

nounced by judges to be one
