The Rainmaking Fake.

Topeka, Kan, April "A. B.
Montgomery, President of the Good
land Rainmaking Company, has for
warded papers to Washington asking
for patent on his system on rain
making. He claims to have discov-
cred the method from Melbourne's
secret process. Two years ago, when
Melbourne was making a test at
Goodland, Kan, party of men
broke into his room and took the
chemicals which he is supposed to
have used in producing rain, and
since that time more than a
dozen rainmaking companies have
been organized in Western Kansas,
Nebraska, and Colorado, claiming to
have the secret for making rain.
Montgomery is now contracting
with Kansas farmers to make for ST
an acre. Last year this company
made money at the rainmaking bust
ness, but they would not allow the
farmers to fix the time fer making
rain. This created suspicion that
they were dipping them.
Recently it has leaked out that the
rainmakers were governed by the
predictions of Professor Hicks.
When call is make by the people
of county for rain the rainmakers
first consulted the professor and then
fixed the dates accordingly, allowing
three days grace in which to charge
the atmosphere with their chemicals
which they send up into the heavens
through stovepipe thrust through
the roof of a small board shanty.

Of the Provisional Government have shown
a tenor Of opposition 10 tho acts of both
Hawaiian and American Governments, es-
peclallY since the American flag was raised.
The British Minister'S first decisive official
act took place on January 80. when he de-
manded why the Provisional Government
did not recall the United States marines to
the United States steamship Boston. The
Provisional Government replied that they
considered 1t necessary to the general pro-
lection of life and property that such forces
remain on shore for the present and on the
first of February the American protectorate
was declared. in consequence of Minister
Wodehouse's interference
On the 10Th of February occurred the
street disturbance. caused by the English
marines and sailors Of II. g. MS cruiser
Garnet, and between that date and the 25tE
of February the time was mostly taken up
organizingthe anGi-American factions under
the leadership Of pronounced royalists and
foreigners. The proposition advanced by
these and their English sympathzers was
that the question Of annexation must a all
events be submitted 10 a popular vote for
ratification in place of to the tablished
Legislature, as provided by the constitution.
In pursuance of this idea the British
Minister addressed a note to President
Dole on February 27 askingi il he, as the
representative of Great Britain, could as
sure his Government that the entire ques-
tion of the annexation OF Hawaii to the
United States Gf merica, and the form of
local government thereafter, If any, would
be submitted to popular vote of the people
of Hawaii.
The Provisional Government on February
&C aq " lgn~ul inf rF
Minister'S note and Informed him that they
would take the matter under consideration;
but before they proceeded further in the
matter they requested the British Minister
10 furnish ihepl with an English precedent
in the Pacific for the action he was taking
ana the demands he was making, so that
the Provisional Government could be
guided thereby,
Nothing more was heard from Mr. Wode-
house until March Z, when another note
was received from him. in which he stated
that he was pleased 10 receive the infOrma-
tiOn that his question would receive the
attention of the Provisional Government;
but regarding a British precedent for the
step he hal taken he knew of none he
could give for the guidance of the Pro
visional Government. The British Minister
also made a plea in his note that his
inability to give such a precedent was
owing to the fact that the British Govern
ment had never attempted annexation of
any people in the Pacific in so advanced a
state CT civilization as were the Hawaiians.
Here the matter rests at present, al
though new developments may be looked
for any day. The more enthusiastic OF the
English sympathizers have set various ru-
mors afloat that this matter is not to end
here, and also assert that some half dozen
British cruisers are on the way TO Honolulu
from Australia. People generally take but

liberty and imparllaty OF their ration, then the
natives began to realize the mistaNe made IN
stopping popular manifestations all The more so
as their passiyeness and patience were eagerly
construed by the partisans of annexation into
indifference, apathy or quiet acquieseenee, or
even into a readiness 10 lose their nationality.
Therefore the native leaders agreed that some
peaceful manifestation was necessary that the
natives were not indifferent, only prudent and
obedlenl; that they were not ready for anne1a-
alton, but bitterly and unanimously opposed It,
ana also that they very properly resented the
idea OF losing their highly priced civil rights and
OF being transferred TO a foreign nation like
flock Of sheep by microscopic faction OF foreign
adventurers.
Moreover, in order to Tefuie contemplate
slur directed against the natives, viz: That
they were incapable of selI-government and
always led and "misled" by "unscrupuOus for
eigners" II was advocated that the movement in
favor of preserving The precious independent
autonomy OF their beloved country should be en-
tiTely native. To that effect it was decided to
accomplish under the name of Hawaiian PatTi-
otic League" a union of all the various native
associations, who Willingly sacrificed their old
differences on the common patriotic ground of
devotion to their threat. ned nationality; and in
view Of accomplishing this union by and through
the natives alone, under native leaders, the for
egneIs friendly to the movement have been ac-
copied only as advisers in the form OF honorary
members.
Such were the motives and objects that in-
spired the formation OF the Hawaiian Patriotic
League, the constitution OF which is hereto ap-
pended. The league was duly constituted by the
election Of officers. through which the dIfT rent
previous associations were duly ana lmpartially
represented and who comprise the most repre-
sentative and popular Hawaiians The election
OF the honorary foreign members was also highly
cr- ditsbe to the good sense of the aboriginal
population.
Il is asserted by some that the original
purpose Of the leaders of the organization
was to favor tile re-establishment OF the
monarchy, If the chance offered, with one
Of the native princes on the throne,
the league being unfayorable to the resto-
ration of female rule under either the ex-
Queen or the Princess Kaiulani. 1t seems,
however, that fear Of arrest caused the lead
ers to suppress these views which, were TO
appear in the proposed constitution. If the
leaders can secure the following of the three
native political factions which are united in
this, they can gain a respectable political
footing. and therefore the natives are
to be deluded into the belief that they
are doing the work. while advise rs and
honorary foreign members behind the cur
tain are pulling the wires for their own ad-
vancement
The third movement Is not so much one
against annexation as it is one to control
the political sp0iis under some liberal form

THE CROWN LANDS.
How They Were Obtained and Where
the Title Now Rests.

The fact that the Hawaiian Consul at San
Francisco has filed n protest with the State
Department at Washington against the
transfer by this Government of the crown
lands has awakened quite little interest
here. and has led to some study of these
very valuable possessions.
The crown lands are to-day Government
property. Even were this not decided,
though. Mrs. Pratt has no such claim
against them as her husband appears to
suppose. although she is very distantly con-
nected with the Kamehamehas. She is
very high ''chiefess." as the expression is
among the Hawaiians, and is in point Of
birth of much higher rank than the Queen
herself.
The claim, if claim there remained, of the
Kamehameha heirs TO the crown lands,
however, was disposed of some years ago.
When Claus Spreekels first came here and
secured lease of crown lands upon which
he established his mammoth plantation in
the lao Valley on Maui. he desired a better
title to the land than be could obtain from
the Government, and accordingly paid to
Ruth Keelikalani, half-sister of Kameham-
cha V, then the last of the Kane hameha
heirs. the sum of $1,000 for any right or
