THAT INTERVIEW.

That Mr.. Charles Nordhoff has
put up some sort of journalistic job
on Mr.. Claus Spreckels, and has
included some statements in the
alleged interview, published else
where, which Mr.. Spreckels will
hesitate to endorse, is more than
likely. In giving his permission
to publish here an interview sent
to the New York Herald, Mr..
Spreckels has probably not fully
understood the intent and purpose
of the Herald's correspondent to
make political cats paw out of
him. Those who know Mr.. Spreck-
els and his past political and COM
mercial connections with Hawaii
are inclined to this view.
Perhaps, if the truth were known,
Mr.. Spreckels has already ex-
pressed more or less surprise at the
final shape which his familiar talk
with Mr.. Nordhoff has taken.
The people of Hawaii have
long been accustomed to read
between the lines of Mr..
Spreckels' interviews. When the
Herald's VIGOROUSLY unreliable cor
respondent makes Mr.. Spreckels
say he sees no reason why stable,
independent government" should
not exist here without annexation,
some of Mr.. Spreckels' wise and
pointed political prophecies regard
ing stable government in the isl
ands heretofore are at once recalled
to mind.
Those who are acquainted with
Hawaiian political history, as Mr..
Spreckels is-and Mr.. Nordhof is
not-will remember the fact that
several years ago Mr.. Spreckles
himself failed in a herculean at
tempt to establish stable govern
ment in unstable Hawaii. The
task would be harder to accomplish
today, and those best acquainted
with Mr.. Spreckels and his great
commercial interests in Hawaii are
loath to believe that he would wish
to see such a government, or COM
bination of governments, estab-
lished here as Mr.. Charles Nord-
hoff and the New York Herald
propose.

There seems to be a growing
desire on the part of major
ity of the people on these
islands to buy goods from US,
and our desire to sell them
grows also. Last week, we
had to employ extra men to
assist us in handling an un-
usually large volume of bust
ness; the Australia Amy
Turner" and IS. n. Castle"
having arrived during the week
with enough goods for US to
stock any ordinary store. Peo-
pie who have entertained the
idea that business" has been
out in the mountains gathering
ohelo berries during the past
few months will discover their
mistake if they will come into
our store any day; we have
been hard at it" all the time.
On the Castle" we had a
new lot of Fischer Steel
Ranges of a much superior
quality than any we have had
before; the steel is of double
thickness, and all parts are
finished in the best manner.
1t is acknowledged by cooks to
be the best range made, on ac-
count of their quick heating,
economy of fuel and superior
baking qualities. We sold
twelve of them between We'd
nesday and Saturday last; we
will sell double the number
during the present week.
The demand for the Hendry
Breaker does not diminish;
every few day we get orders
from managers of plantations
who want to simplify their
work and get the largest
service with the least supply
of mule force. 1t is pretty gene
rally understood now a days
that the Hendry Breaker is the
only pillow that fills the re-
quirements. Where six and
eight mules were formerly
used in blowing four and six
now do the work and gambol
over the green sward at the
end of the day like delegates
to a democratic convention.
AS humanitarians we are pleas
ed to think we have done
something that brings JOY to
the heart of a mule.
We can fill orders at all
times for II, IA or Is inch
breakers.

MAUI INDIGNANT.
a Protest and Petition Against
". J. Sheldon's Appoint
u1euf.

Mr.. EDITOR: Considerable in
dignation is expressed here over
the late appointment of w. J..
Sheldon to the office of port sur
veyor at Kahului, and it is freely
commented upon, that said party,
who was a few years ago dis
missed from the same Office for
want of confidence in him, has not
since by any of his acts regained
confidence if he has, we are not
aware of it.
Are we to believe that there is
no one in this community, who
could capably and satisfactorily
fiji the Office of port surveyor, or
must vacancies be made on the
other islands simply to make room
for hungry Honolulu spoils seek
ers? Let us have a voice in public
affairs and when vacancies occur
IN local government offices, let
Maui men be selected to fill them.
Mr. Sheldon may be a good an
nexationist, but so have the ma
jority of respected Maui men de-
clared themselves in favor of an
nexation, who feel, even if they are
not crying for spoils, that their
body has been altogether ignored
and that an injustice has been
done them by the appointment OF
Honolulu man to one of their
local Offices.
A petition is being circulated
here asking for the speedy removal
from Office of this gentleman, and
it is to be hoped that this mis-
step may be repaired and our
prayer granted.
If Mr.. Sheldon must be recon-
pensed for valuable services rem
dered make room for him in Homo
lulu; we neither asked for his APP
pointment, nor do we want him
here. u. ID.

Even the royalists were at first
startled at the enormity of the
political and moral offense proposed
to them by precept and example !;
but being familiar with the political
depravities of an irresponsible
and INSCRIPTIONS monarchy, prac-
ticed before their eyes for years,
they have easily passed to the COM
mission of similar depravities for
themselves. Their cue was given
them by Mr.. Nordhoff-suggestive
and un-American name--in the
New York Herald. The leading
royalist journal here at first hest
tated to endorse the proposed cam
paign of lies. 1t probably would
not have come in had it been
obliged to face the Hawaiian pub
lie as principal instead of accessory
in the nefarious job.

HAMAKUA NOTES
Coffee Culture Introduction of
Lupine.

LUpIUG.
A correspondent sends few
items, and reports the grinding
season as nearly over. The cane
is very dry and hard. High winds
prevail, with light showers, but
more rain is needed.
Some attention is being paid to
coffee, and a number of persons are
either preparing ground or plant
ing, and one young lady is among
the number.
Judge Barnard claims having
raised the best coffee on Hawaii,
and his berries are therefore in
much demand for seed. So far
everything looks prosperous for
coffee planting in Hamakua, which
is said to possess as fine coffee land
as any part of Hawaii.
More attention is being paid to
planting fruit trees. Mr.. A. Lidgate
has the largest orchard of anyone
in Hamakua, and most of his trees
are foreign fruits, which are doing
well. Mr.. L. has also found a new
plant called lupine, introduced
from Portugal, which promises to
be an acquisition to the country.
1t grows here very luxuriantly.
An anti-annexation meeting was
held in Hamakua, composed chief
ly of women and children, all of
whom signed a petition to be sent
to Commissioner Blount. 1t was
presided over by a woman and adj
dressed by stranger from New
York, named Carter, and by Mr..
Richard. Most of the government
officers in the district are anti
annexationists.

CORRESPONDENT should remem-
Der the rule of all well-conducted
papers that no correspondence
can be inserted, unless the name of
the writer accompanies it, not
necessarily for publication, but as
a guarantee of good faith. No less
than five such letters have been re-
ceived from Maui and Hawaii the
past week-some of them quite in
teresting, but we are obliged to
withhold them for this reason.

a CAMPAIGN OF LIES.

The political situation in Hawaii
is rapidly becoming one of grave
Importance. No great political
change like the present can take
place in any country, least of all in
a weak state like this, without dis
turbing the entire political and
financial fabric of the nation. This
has been done. The shock has been
a rude one, and the worst is hap
PLY past. AT all events the dangers
which threatened the new govern
ment In various forms, or were said
to threaten it, have passed away in
the breath of rumor or in the vain
glorious boastings of royalists. The
financial disasters which were
prophesied to follow the new
regime have failed to appear, and
every passing week now adds to
the credit of the treasury and the
stability Of the government.

the royalist leaders to point where
they must show their hands and
declare what manner of fight they
will make against annexation.
With them it has become cues
ton of "to be, or not to be-"
question of political self-preserva-
ton at all hazards and by any
means. Their simple protest
against annexation quite lately
has been supplemented, if it has
not been entirely substituted, by
the Inauguration of a campaign of
misrepresentation, part truths, his
torical suppressions and outright
falsehoods, that would shame the
ancient father of lies" Nor were
the royalists capable, single-hand-
ed, of organizing and carrying out
effectively this low graded political
campaign. They must need take
their cue from a foreigner, who,
with a machiavelian turn of mind
and Bourbon cast of conscience,
is vainly attempting to make the
plain historic facts of the revolu-
ton appear as no facts by substi-
tuting for them garbled statements
and, were necessary, direct false
hoods

The absurd defense offered Mr..
Nordhoff's conduct that he has
hitherto possessed a good reputa-
ton, "as an able and honorable
journalist throughout the United
States" will not suffice 1.-The ques-
ton to be decided is, has Mr..
Nordhoff borne false witness in
this specific case of Hawaiian
affairs. That he has, not only
the contradictions between the
statements in his letters of April
9Th and 25th, but his own admis-
sions in print here and the ire
futable facts of late Hawaiian his
tory amply and conclusively prove.
There is but one conclusion that
is, Mr.. Nordhof's misstatements
and falsehoods are being backed
by the royalists for the definite
purpose of supporting campaign
of lies, which their new foreign
leader has prescribed for the ex-
queens cause, if he has not abso-
lutely dictated it to the purblind
royalist politicians. 1t is small Won
der their one would-be-respectable
newspaper hesitated to follow the
political plan of so reckless and
INSCRIPTIONS leader as Mr.. Nord-
hoff.

WENT AGROUND.
The Yacht Bonnie Dundee Takes
a Short Cuf.

Three of the officers and a couple
of seamen of the British cruiser
Hyacinth took the yacht Bonnie
Dundee, yesterday, for a sail out
side the harbor. In returning, be-
tween 3 and 4 o'clock in the after
noon, the yacht got aground in the
channel, little below the light
house, and remained there for
about thirty minutes. A steam
launch and cutter from the u. S.
S. Adams went to her assistance
and soon pulled her into deep water
again. No injury resulted to the
vessel.

This state of affairs has non
piussed the political prophets of
evil, and the necessity of doing
something rather than waiting for
1t to turn up, has at last brought
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1893-05-22

But the "battle Of lies" must
needs be fought and the entire
rank and file of the old palace
crowd, newspapers and all, have
fallen in behind Mr.. Nordhoff,
whom they publicly announce they
will both initiate and defend. The
weakness of their cause all royal
lists feel is its evident lack of truth !;
the they have passed the political
rubicon whence there is no retreat {:
a disastrous and decisive conflict
with truth and historic fact will
end in the political determination
of the royal cause in Hawaii. Here
after there can be no heed given
to cries for quarter with the
concerted Punishment of right
reason, truth and justice by the
royalists and their non-American
foreign leaders, political courtesy
and mercy have withdrawn from
the field.
