a HISTORICAL COINCIDENCE sED PAR
ALLEL

j remarkable event took place
IN Paris on the 18th Of January,
l-9S. On the evening Of that day,
after 8 continuous session Of sew
entv-two hours, the Convention OF
France passed sentence Of death
upon Louis Capt., otherwise Louis
XVI. Three days after that the
sentence was executed.
Exactly one hundred years later,
On the 18th Of January, 1898, the
Committee Of Public Safety in Ho-
nolulu, after seventy-two hours Of
nearly continuous labOrs, pro-
claimed Queen Liliuokalani de-
throned, and the Hawaiian mon
archy abolished.
After twenty-one years, through
the active exertions of the Imper-
isl combination in Europe, known as
the Holy Alliance" the Bourbon
monarchy, abolished in the per-
son OF the weak Louis XVI,
was restored, only to meet its
final extinction sixteen years
after. by its own :ncurable per-
versity. An attempt was lately.
L z0t now, in progress by the new
alliance OF Cleveland, SpTeckels,
Gresham and Blount, to restore the
Hawaiian Monarchy. It is to the
credit Of the Imperial despots, that
they did not, ike the Washington
Government pursue their ends in Sc
crecy. ashamed Of the light Of day,
out were open IN their aims and
methods. The whole world knew
day by day what the Imperial Pow
ers Of Europe were doing. No one
in Congress, or in the Provisional
Government Of Hawaii, has had or
70 this moment has any knowledge
O. what the present powerful con-
spiraoy at Washington Is actually
endeavoring 70 effect to-day, nor by
what further secret methods It is
now striving to accomplish It's
end.
After the elapse Of a century,
the thrones Of Europe have grown
50 decayed that, once overturned,
s restoration Is substantially hope
less. In this Western hemisphere,
Il Is a generation since the last
effort to reconstruct Monarchy
ANONYMOUSLY failed in Mexico.
Anyone who predicted another at
tempt in this hemisphere would
year ago have been derided as in
sane. But 1t Is the unexpected
that always happens and We now
see the same President who few
years ago attempted to restore
the Confederate battle-fags, avow-
ing his desire to reconstruct the
rotten throne Of the old Hawaii.
The event Of q century past was
one Of lurid tragedy. The ensuing
history has been one Of strange and
momentous changes. This mon
archical tumbling in Hawaii may
even yet have Its tragical features.
It seems more likely to end in
farce. Two things are certain, that
any future which monarchy can
secure in Hawaii by the aid Of this
new holy alliance will be exceed
ing short, and that all concerned
IN It's restoration wiz get ground
exceeding small"

By the care and attention
which we devote in filling ord
ers from the other islands, we
have relieved the people from
the trouble and expense of
visiting Honolulu for the pur-
pose of making purchases. By
our advertisements, we have
brought many of our different
lines to the attention of peo-
pie in the outer districts who
have not the opportunity for
every day inquiry or inspec-
ton, and these same people
when DESTROYS of ordering, are
perfectly willing to rely upon
our taste and judgment, in
making their selection for
them. We give such orders
our best attention and always
give satisfaction.
If any one wants a sewing
machine, and will take our
advice in the matter, they
will buy a wonderful
Wertheim, not because we
are the sole agents for it,
but because it is really the
best machine manufactured.
The Wertheim Triplex COM
bines three separate and dis
tinct stitches in one. The
Lock Stitch, the Chain Stitch
and the combined Lock and
Chain or Embroidery Stitch,
making it just a little bit bet
ter than any other machine
manufactured.
A piano lamp in old silver
and one in wrought iron
standing just inside our door
way, should tickle the fancy of
anyone. The banquet lamps
are just as pretty. The Ala
media will bring us others on
Thursday in ample time for
Christmas.

WONG FATS TROUBLE.
When He Loses His Case, He
Tries TO Commit
Suicide,

James K. Paele, native lawyer
of Koolau, has written a letter to
this Office, explaining the attempted
suicide of Wong Fat, the Chinaman
who was found hanging to a tele-
phone pole at Kaaawa last Tues
day.
Paele explains the circumstances
as follows: Wong Fat was plaintiff
in case of trover against R. C.
Rubin and Paele was the defend
ants lawyer, and won the case.
The loss of his suit worried Wong
Fat, and he brooded over his defeat
until he lost all pleasure in life and
resolved to commit suicide. On
the day that the suit was decided
against him he left his house be-
tween four and five o'clock, and
strung himself up to a telephone
pole, on the road between Makona
and Kaaawa. Paele happened to
pass along that road, and saw the
Chinaman hanging from the pole.
He was not yet dead when dis
covered, and Paele, cut him down.
Some of the Chinaman's friends
came along, and Paele left the I'M
fortunate man to their care. He
has since recovered, and has now a
stronger feeling of the value of life
than he had last Tuesday.

memorable in the history of New lea
land, has been the exercise Of the sUf-
frage by every woman over the age Of
twenty-one years. From end to end
Of the colony, in the crowded cities
and in sparsely-settled country dis
tricts, the women have recorded their
votes al the polling booths. The can
didates had committees Of ladies as
well as gentlemen, and the members
of the ladies' committees were as keen
as the oldest electioneers in bringing
voters of their own sex to the poll.
They made provision by which any
woman having baby had q member
Of committee to relieve her of family
cares while she was recording her
vote. The women had their own COM
mittee rooms, and complete election
eering organization. 1t has frequent
" been objected that it would be i'm
possible for women to 90 TO the polling
booths on account of rowdyism, and
that they would be insulted BY roughs
when they went to record their votes.
But there was nothing of the kind.
No provision was made for separate
polling places for women. They went
10 the same booths as the men, and in
no single instance that we have heard
of, was there the slightest annoyance
caused to any female voter. So far as
administration is concerned, the ex-

ROANOKE, VA, APRIL 90, 1893.
GouNTo THE PRIMARY.

The members of Council to be elected
in May will have a large share in
handling the affairs of the city Tor the
next two years Questions of great and
vital Importance will come up for dis
cussion and action. The matter of
bonding the city to secure the
entrance Of the Chesapeake and
Ohio, or the Baltimore and Ohio
or both is considered near
at hand. The questions of the city's
securing an independentsou source OF water
supply, and of carefully restricting the
powers and privileges of the presen gas
and water company are alive and of i'm
mediate interest. The careful and
economical administration of finances;
the steady and thorough advance of
public improvements are matters which
concern every citizen, and in which all
should keep up an active and inquiring
concern.
Itfollows then, as matter of course,
that all intelligent citizens should take
part in the selection of the men VII O
are to legislate upon these important
matters. This is SO plainly their duty
that it is difficult to understand WHY
there should be any hesitancy on the
part of any thinking citizen attending
the primary on May 4. There is such a
hesitancy on the part of few and to
these this argument is.addressed.
Your principal reason for declining to
enter the primary is because OF the
pledge on the ticket binding you to sup
port tho nominees of the primary. You
will acknowledge that the nomination
Of the Democratic primary is practically
equivalent to an election in four out of
five wards. Therefore the pledge is not
a prac tical'faotor in determining the re-
suit, as no independent movement for
councilmen in the four Democratic
wards will be started. To put it in
another form the objection to taat
pledge is in the,present primary senti-
mental and not practical.
Grant this, then does IL not become
plain that your only chance to be real
factor in selecting efficient councilman
ls to vote ct the primary next Thursday?
Go step further, if you do not take part
in the primary are you not defeating
the very end you should serve most
actively-the selection OF the best
candidates for Counci1o Are you not
rendering more probable the selec-
ton OF men who will not serve
the best interests Of the city?
If by goiog into the primary you sue
coed in nominating the best men, you
nave accomplished your purpose. If
you fail you have done your duty, and
are none the worse for that. We trust
that every philosophical and intelli-
gent citizen Nill cast his ballot on
Thursday next. II every householder
could see the actual money value to
himself of having we'll governed CITY,
he would surely be at the polls.
