aided BY outside support are too few
i'll numbers to control in political
affairs, and to secure good govern
ment." How eloquent those words
become, when viewed in the light of
His EXcellcncy's subsequent action,
in the furnishing of "outside sup
port" to the patriots who were "too
few in point of numbers to control"
etc.
In the second of the letters March
8, 1922, is outlined plan of attack
upon the Government to which Mr..
Stevens was and is accredited, by an
anticipated orderly and peaceful
revolutionary movement" - what
ever that may be,-which is also
very interesting reading, in the light
of recent events.
We do not allcge that those let
ters were written by Mr.. Stevens,
but we quite urgently suggest that,
If his Excellency is innocent of their
authorship, he should make all haste
to disclaim them, and establish such
innocence. In the absence of such
disclaimer, of course, people can be
expected to hold but one opinion
upon the subject of their genuine
ness. In any event, the BULLETIN re-
spectfully suggests to Commissioner
Blount their careful perusal, in case
they have thus far escaped that gen
tleman's notice. They may assist
him to conclusion upon the very
pertinent question of "Who did it?"
In the meantime we must con-
tinue to admire the triple plated,
gilt-edged gall of those pious people
who declare that Minister Stevens
had nothing to do with the deposi-
tion of the Queen, and to express
our sense of the fitness of the title,
applied to his Excellency, of Min
lister Plenipotentiary and Envoy
Extraordinary,-with accent on the
"ertraordinary."

issued book of 40S pages, on, "The

OFFENSIVE CANARD.

On the 9th instant the Advertiser
devoted a half column of its "valu-
able space to New York despatch
covering what purported to be a tele-
gram from Mr.. Theo. H. Davies to
Mr.. Cleghorn, running as follows:
"Cleghorn, British Consulate, Homo
lulu. Suggest Vic. to Blount. Talk
Yankee greed and sugar. DAVIES"
There is evidence on the face of it
that the telegram is an absurd fabri-
cation, and no doubt this is the pri-
vate view of the Advertiser people,
whose motive for its circulation it
would be interesting to learn. No,
body who knows Mr.. Davies would
believe that he ever indited such a
missive. Those who do not know
him may be informed that we learn
the form of the telegram, apart
from its language, to be one never
used by Mr.. Davies in telegraphing
to anyone. 1t is unnecessary tC
comment on the etiquette, not tC
mention the ethics, of publishing a
private message purporting to have
been picked up in hotel.

IS 1T AN INNOVATIONS

Judge Dallas in the United States
Circuit Court at Philadelphia denied
a motion to compel John F. Searles,
Jr., Treasurer of the American Sugar
Refneries Company, to answer GER
tain important questions in the suit
of the Government against the sugar
trusts. 1t would be interesting and
perhaps important to have more
than this brief telegraph item in re-
gard to the matter, while proposal
is pending in the Provisional Legis-
lature to remove the seal of conf
dence on behalf of depositors from
the lips of Postal Savings Bank Off
cials when subpenaed as witnesses
in court. If private bank officers
are not privileged as witnesses to
conceal all business in their charge,
it is hard to see why officials of
Government savings bank should be
more favored in that respect. But
if the rule here and elsewhere has
been that holders of trusts of all
kinds have been debarred from
divulging knowledge thereof under
all circumstances, then very weighty
reasons of both state and business
policy should be advanced to justify
the proposed innovation. At first
sight, certainly, any unusual latitude
in the custody of such condolences
would not seem to be promotive of
the business interests of any bank
1t would rather tend to stimulate
Improbable boarding of savings in
teapots and stockings. The Judi
ciary Committee, to which the mat
ter has been referred, should state
what the practice is in other civil
lized countries. Then, if the pro-
posal is found to involve an untried
innovation the Councils should bury
it deeper than Pharaoh's chariots in

The following very significant
piece of information, from the Ha-
waiian of the Liberal, April II,
send you for publication in your
columns, believing it will be appreci-
ated by your readers. Coming from
Mr. r. w. Wilcox, who is in the con-
fdence of the heads of the Pro-
visional Government, and corrobo-
rated by others who have the same
information, it may be credited as
true. The following is the transla-
ton:
"We have been informed that
Thurston has written to the govern
ment (P. G.) asking that six native
Hawaiians be put in the Executive
Council, in order to obtain anneXa-
ton. These are the names which he
suggested to the governments: Hons.
j. A. Cummins, j. +. Colburn, An
tone Rosa, Joseph Nawahi, Jno. l..
Kaulukou and II. w. Wilcox"
This information is similar to that
sent to Mr.. j. F. Colburn and an
other Hawaiian gentleman, from Mr.
Thurston, asking them by all means
to assist in booming annexation,
otherwise there would be no hope
for it. The public can draw their
own conclusions as to which is in
the last ditch-the treaty or the an
nexation commissioners?

This mornings Advertiser pub
lished a document alleged to be a
memorial to Commissioner Blount
passed by the Women's Patriotic
League. A committee of the League
has requested the BULLETIN to de-
nounce the publication as bogus in
its entirety. Not line of the pur-
ported memorial is correct, but
everything in it is distorted into a
false light. What use is news
paper to the public when it thus
casts to the wind all regard for its
own character? After its presenta-
tion to Commissioner Blount the

NEW NAVAL POLICY.

From an interesting column of
United States naval intelligence in
this issue, it will be seen that the
new navy is to have the benefit of a
new policy. That policy is to have
the ships of war distributed over the
watcry eXpanse Of the globe, instead
of hugging the shores of home har-
bors and devoted to domestic exhi-
bitiou purposes. The new way is
that to make the living contingent
of the navy worthy of the fine new
ships, as we'll as to give the nation
the full benefit of the power and
prestige that the ships illustrate.
Naval men by anordinary disposition
in human nature are apt to be more
easily placed and kept on their good
behavior before strangers than be-
fore their own people, and foreign
complications especially with in
ferior states will be less likely to
arise when strong arm of the ma
tion is within effective range of every
haunt of American commerce abroad.
Such deterrent lesson as a French
naval commander gave the other day,
when he took captive the president
of petty republic who had COM
mitted burglary on French bank
is one that the American navy should
be made more in position to i'm
part, the larger American commerce
expands abroad.

WASTE NOT, WANT NOT!

And let those that steal be arrest
ed! 1t is subject for lamentation in
the Star, as it will be for general
regret, that the Government Survey
has come to a standstill for want of
funds. Meantime, without the slight
est symptom of any violent inten-
tions against the existing govern
ment, a military establishment on a
scale hitherto unheard-of is main
tanned. Also, the public revenues
are, according to ocular evidence,
being squandered in duplicate and
even triplicate advertising for no
other purpose than to furnish sub
sistence for the several organs of the
Provisional party. Publication of
certain classes of Government ad-
vertising has, prior to the present
regime, been held sufficient IN a
single medium for one language.

ceive everything that is going, while
sheets that are not newspapers at

official notices to publish in two
