friendship and protection of the
United States.
MY opponents have taken the only
vessel which could be obtained here
for the purpose, and, hearing of their
intention to send delegation Of their
number to present their side of this
conflict before you, | requested the
favor Of sending by the same vessel
an envoy to lay before you my state
ment as the facts appear to myself
and my loyal subjects.
This request has been refused, and
| now ask in justice to myself and my
people, that no steps be taken by the
Government Of the United States
until my cause can be heard by you.
I shall be able to dispatch an envoy
about the second day of February
which will be the first available OPP
portunity, and he will reach you with
every possible haste, that there may
be no delay in the settlement of this
matter.
| pray you, therefore, my good
friend, that you will not allow any
conclusion to be reached by you until
my envoy arrives.
beg to assure you Of the contin-
ance Of my highest consideration.
LILIUoKALANI.
Honolulu, Jan. IA, 1898.

Saxon and Sandwich Islander.

The main source Of the trouble at Ha-
wall seems to have been that Queen
Liliuokalani had visited Europe and got
her head turned by the Difference paid to
royalty there. She had seen the snob-
bishness, the toadyism, the getting down
and crawling Of civilized white men be-
fore the sovereigns of Europe. The
kings and queens treated her for the
time as one Of themselves. 1t amused
them to do so, but it spoiled Liliuoka-
lani for plain working life. She deter
mined to be as absolute despot as the
czar of Russia. She hated the whites,
particularly Americans, because they
opposed this in the interests of their
own lives and property. The constitu-
ton which she endeavored to fix upon
the people abolished altogether the house
Of mobiles, or upper house of the legis-
lature, to which many Of the foreign
ers belonged. The legislature consisted
of two houses Of "a members each, rep
resentatives and mobiles.
The new constitution which Liliuoka-
lani intended to promulgate deprived all
white men of the right to vote and left
the appointment and dismissal of judges
of the supreme court wholly in the hands
Of the queen, linn lng them to e-year
term besides.
There is no doubt that If the natives
alone had been consulted in the matter
they would have preferred to give Liliu-
okalani all the power she wanted, to the
exclusion of "fcfeigners," as all the
white men are called, though their an
cestors have b$en a. Hawaii fer genera
tons. But that is 1st what the white
men would not eAdTf~e. They had too
many business in5e71Tr is at stake to per-
NIT it. Their liveg, eould perhaps have
been endangered bts51es from drunken
native mob. The kanakas are given up
to drunkenness i'll frightful degree,
and this and other vices Of civilization
are wiping them surely off the earth. So
it comes about that Hawaiians them
selves have really little say in the matter
of whether they shall be annexed. They
probably will not mind it much one way
Or the other.
The Lovely Ladies of New Orleans.
There were quite "a number of ladies
in the parquet seats and orchestra circle
last night at the Grand Opera House
who were without hats or bOnnetS and
as rule those ladies who wore any
thing on their heads confined themselves
to the smallest of capotes The gentle
men present were profuse in their com
mendation of the new departure, and
there was not one Of them we suspect
who did not feel like making q bow to
each and every one Of the ladies for this
evidence of their courtesy.-New Or

The National Economist.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Eel

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. II.
The National Economist Publishing Co.:
GENTLEMEN The following was
adopted by the Executive Committee
to-day:
Whereas, The following has been
referred to the Executive Committee
of the National Farmers Alliance
and Industrial Union:
Resolved by the Supreme Council, That
we refer the question of national organ
and the relation of the organization to
the National Economist to our Executive
Committee, with the instruction that,
while we do not admit the principle that
a former council may bind this body,
we request the Executive Committee to
do whatever the honor of the Alliance
and the interests Of Justice may de-
mand and, further, that it is the sense
of this body that the time has arrived
when all Alliance papers should be put
on the same footing and,
Whereas, Every reasonable effort has
been made, without success, to find the
contract alleged to have been made be-
tween the national organization and the
National Economist Publishing Com
pany and,
Whereas, No bond can be found on
the subject; and,
Whereas, 1t is quite manifest that the
National Economist has not for a num-
Der of months been in accord with the
fundamental interests of the Farmers
Alliance and Industrial Union and,
Whereas, The last issue of said National
Economist of the date Of Feb. Is, 1898,
manifests a disposition to continue on
with its antagonistic course, notwith-
standing a pretended acceptance of the
proposition submitted by the Executive
Committee and,
Whereas, Official communications have
not appeared in said paper, notwithstand-
ing respectful submission and,
Whereas, The present shareholders are
not all members of the order, or identi-
fed with the organization therefore,
Resolved, That we hereby carry out
expressed sense of the National Council
by declaring the National Economist no
longer the official organ of the National
Farmers Alliance and Industrial Union.

LILIUOKALANpS LETTER.

The DepOSed Queens Appeal to Her
"Great and Good Friend'' Harrison.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE doc
uments laid before the Senate in con.
nection with the Hawaiian matters
contain the heretofore unpublished
protest addressed by the ex-Queen
to the President, which reads as
follows:
His Excelleney, Benjamin Harrison, Pres
ident of the United States:
INy Great and Good Friend: 1t
rs with deep regret that I address
you on this occasion. Some of my
subjects, aided by aliens, have re-
nounced their loyalty and revolted
against the constitutional govern
ment of my kingdom. They have
attempted to depose me and to es-
tablish a provisional government, IN
direct conflict with the organic law
of this kingdom. Upon receiving
incontestable proof that his Excel
lency the Minister Plenipotentiary of
the United States aided and abetted
their unlawful movements and caused
United States troops to be landed for
that purpose, l submitted to force,
believing that he would not have
acted in that manner unless by the
authority of the government which
he represents.
This action on my part was promp-
ted by three reasons: The futility of
a conflict with the United States, the
desire to avoid violence, bloodshed
and the destruction of life and prop
erty, and the certainty which l felt
that you and your government will
right whatever wrongs may have
been inflicted upon US in the premises.
This appeal is not made for myself
personally, but for my people, who
have always hitherto enjoyed the

Not a Wealthy Man.

In summing up Mr.. Blaine's career
Immediately after his death a New York
paper said, HE would not have been con-
sidered wealthy man by New Workers,
his estate being worth no more than
about 81 900, 0000"
The writer Of this sentence presumed
to speak for the people of New York.
Let us see. The census shows that there
are some 100000 inhabitants in that
city. Of that number 200, 900 live in
flats, apartments and tenement houses.
This is three-fourths of the whole popu-
lation. So densely packed are these that
with all it's wealth, and counting all the
beautiful homes Of the multimillionaires,
the whole average of houses and people
in that city shows there are not less than
four families to every house in the cor
porate limits.
But Blaine would not be considered a
rich man by the people Of New York.
Are the people of New York the 400, 900
who live in a house all to themselves,
or are they the 100000 who herd to-
gether like beeves on the way to market
in cattle car? In what is called the
slum or tenement house district of the
city 276, 900 families are packed together.
The deadly crowding, filth and wretch
edness in which they exist are not
equaled, it is to be hoped, elsewhere in
the world. If each one of these New
York families had 81 900, 900, would they
or would they not count themselves rich?
Who are the people Of New York any

An Insurance Trust

Virginia Sun.
The Noa0 York Herald, whose
nose is tilted at precisely the right
angle for shifting out every species of
corrupt job except its own pet hum
bug OF goldbugism, has added another
to It's long list Of unsavory unearth,
ings of the immoral. This time its
keen scent is on the trail of the New
York Fire and Marine Insurance
Companies, which have formed them
selves into secret trust for fixing
rates and crushing out opposition.
They began by lobbying through the
State Legislature law prohibiting
nonresident insurance compani es
from doing business in the State.
This cuts off outside competition and
gives them monopoly of the bust
ness in New York. They have al
ready raised the rates, and in some
cases doubled them. Their capital
is $100,000,00O, Of which 100000
is European and S47,000,O00 Ameri-
can. Here is another instance Of
foreign capital levying blackmail on
American industry. Insurance is a
business necessity, and though the
tax comes out Of the merchants in
the first instance, they recoup them
selves out of their customers, and thus
the general public foots the bill in
the long run. Government should
give us insurance at cost, and stop
the enormous tribute annually paid
to foreigners.

Gresham and HOke Smith,

ono, kind sir, he is no relative of
mine I rescued HIM because he had
the bait in his pocket"
This antique anecdote illustrates
the attitude of many Of the Demo
cratic Senators who would like to
fight Cleveland if they dared. There
is scarcely one Of them who is not
deeply incensed at the selection Of
Judge Gresham as Secretary of State.
There is scarcely one of them who
does not resent Mr.. Cleveland's dis
covery of unknown quantities in the
person of Michael III. Smith, other
wise known as Hoke Smith of Geor-
gia, for Secretary of the Interior.
There is not one Of them who does
not resent such autocratic bulletins
as the President-elect issued from
Lakewood the other day, proclaiming
that his letters relating to his duties
as President of the United States
must not be addressed to his private
residence, but must be sent to his
business office in the Mills building.
There is not one of them who is not
angered by the anticipation of Mr..
Cleveland's purpose to destroy, SO far
as federal patronage will avail, every
existing Democratic machine and to
supplant them by organizations of
his own, devoted to the interests of
the new autocrt in American politics,
in every State in the Union.
