QULXOTIo.


Never did knighterrant,in in the days
of chivalry, with more alacrity, olothe
himself in armor for the defense of his
lady love, at an imaginary or real dan
ger, than does the Albany Democrat
in its efforts to ward off every blow
aimed at the party with which it athli-
ates. According to its opinion Mr..
Cleveland is a consistent Democrat in
opposing free coinage, and Mr.. Hill in
favoring bimetallism. Both are correct
in the position they assume on this
question, and in perfect harmony with
the Chicago platform. This is political
knight-erranty, and our cotemporary
is bright exemplar of the ideas of
Amadis de Gaul, and of Don Quixote,
the character satirized in Cervantes'
immortal work. Whenever the Dem
ocratic party is mentioned except in
complimentary terms, to the mind OF
the editor of the Democrat, there is
some lady Imprisoned in an enchanted
castle who can only be relieved by this
knight-errant performing deeds of
prodigious valor. As Cervantes would
put it, this man has always wind
mill fight on his hands, and, although
his gallantry can never be questioned,
his judgment is not such that it would
be followed by the wisest statesmen.
This was well illustrated in the
Wednesdays issue of that paper, in
which the editor sets his lance il rest,
and prepares for another onslaught on
a windmill, because the TINES Noun
TANNER stated in an editorial article
that the same rule should not he ap-
piled where the state made purchase
of machinery for jute mill to give
employment to convlcts as if it were
bought by private corporation as a
matter Of speculation. IL his knight
errant-Quixotic-manner Of answer
ing this be uses the following sentence:
"What seductive influence has been
brought to bear upon our senior SEN
ator to induce him to thus legislate In
......t &c n.,at Rr;ta;nq Rrii,cl,
gold2 Perish the thought How our
esteemed cotemporary can arrive at
the conclusion that the jute mill ma
chinery, for the benefit Of the state of
Oregon, would op the doors to Brit
ish free trade or "British gold" We
cannot conceive, but perhaps our as
tute brother could explain. But, then,
perhaps this sentence may be classed
as irony, according to the rhetoric J
rules established by the classical editor
of the Oregomian, ard if so, it is
simply indicative of ignorance or
stupidity to pay any attention to
its import. We have not considered
the article in the Democrat in this
line; but have arrived at the eonclu-
sion that it Is quixotic, and shall al
ways consider the editor Of our valued
exchange as knIght-errant of Demo-
cracy. During our editorial acqualn.-
ance with the paper we have seen SO
many exhibitions of this chivalric
spirit that it is hardly possible for US
to be mistaken. There Is such
wide-alnost unlimited-feld for our
cotemporary to exhibit his qualities In
this respect, that we hope the editor
may continue in the path he has
chosen. 1t makes him profoundly
consistent with his party, and the
facts will remain the same nothwith-
standing his gallant efforts for their
demolition.

RIafing i'm Hamburg.

HAMBURG, Oct. 10-Another fatal riot
occcrred last night in st. Paul, suburb
OF this city, growing out of the attempts
OF the sanitary officers to enforce the reg
ulatlons for the prevention of the spread
of cholera. As in the previous riot, when
policeman was brutally kicked and
stamped to death, the scene of last
| nights trouble was in one of the districts
of the village inhabited entirely by the
poor and ignorant classes, who seem to
have horror of being compelled to OBJ
serve cleanliness aud the ordinary sam
ltary regulations. When the sanitary of.
ticers attempted to put extraordinary reg
uiations IN force, trouble at once resulted.
The sanitary officers were accompanied
by number of policeman, but the pres
| ence of the latter had no effect upon the
| violence of the mob, that quic xiv gath
| cred when it became known that the
| sanitary officers were about. The mob
made decent In force upon the police,
storming them and using clubs. The
policeman were unable to quell the riot
ing-in fact, they could make no attempt
to do SO, beng compelled to fight des-
perately to protect themselves from the
fury of the rioters. While some of the
mob thus engaged the police, others de-
voted themselves to furious onslaught
upon the sanitary officers. One of the
latter was captured by the mob. His
comrades could make no attempt to res
cue him, as they had all they could do to
defend themselves. The officer in the
hands of the mob was struck on the head
with large stone and knocked to the
ground. Then the mob jumped on hi m
and kicked him about the head and body
until life was extinct.
THE BRUTALITY OF THE MOB.
| Meantime the crowd had succeeded In
knocking policeman down, and he, too,
soon met his death. The rioters, with
fiendish delight, kicked his face until it
was pulp. Even after be was dead
some OF the rioters danced upon his body.
The fight was waxing desperate, with the
odds IN favor of the mob, when q detach
ment of troops, who had been hastily
dispatched to the scene. arrived. The
officer in command of the troops ordered
the mob to disperse. but they paid no at.
tention to the command, and continued
their attack upon the policeman and
sunltary officers. An order was given
for the troops 10 fix bayonets, and when
the cleaning steel points were fastened
to the rifles the soldiers were ordered to
charge the mob. With bayonets lowered
they moved forward on the double quick
and the rioters, seeing the bristling wall
of steel advancing upon them, ,Iattem pied
to disperse in short order. They ran In
every direction, save in the direction of
the troops, and disappeared in alley
ways and the doorways of the tumble-
down tenements with which the district
is filled. Many of them, however, were
not quick enough to escape the police,
who began to chase them the moment
they saw the crowd beginning to break
up. At least dozen of the mob were
arrested. The bodies of the policeman
and the sanitary officer were taken to the
poilce station.

Six Lives Were Lost.

DEER PARK, Mich :, Oct. "a disaster
on Lake Superior, in which not less than
six lives were lost, came to light today,
when drifting boat was picked up by
the crew of the Muskalonge life~ssving
station. The derelct was sighted this
forenoon, and by the aid of strong glasses
it was found that the craft was disabled
and drifting. The crew put out and came
to the wreck just west of the station.
1he craft was found to be fishing boat
of large size, which operations on this
part of the lake make necessary. No
trace of the SIX occupants, known to have
been in the boat, can be found.

Jumped From a TraiD.

TACOMA, Wash, Oct. 11-John Dry
den, being taken to Seattle from Walla
Walla penitentiary to remain In the King
county Jail pending appeal from convlc-
tion for burglary, escaped this afternoon
from Jailer Munroe and Detective Rob
erts, on the train, near Hot Springs. He
jumped from the car when going twenty
miles an hour. The train stopped and
the officers pursued the man and cap
tured him, but the train went on with
out them, as another section of it was
approaching.

The end is approaching of the long
continued debate ON the monetary
question in the senate, and before the
week closes a vote will have been
reached. For many weeks the speeches
of the senator's have been very tire
some, and this has been particularly
true because it has been generally un-
derstood that these long g-winded har-
angues have simply been made by
those favoring free coinage to obstruct
legislation and, il possible, to tire into
complaisance the friends of honest
money. 1t is fact of which Repub-
licans should be proud that their
representatives in the halls of congress
have been almost solid phal-
aux in favor Of the honest dollar
and the single standard for the meas
urement of values. This has been the
salvation of the credit of the nation in
the past, and the party of patriotism
and of progress is true to its tradl-
tions. Free institutions seem to be
lacking in some essential qualities
when minority, as has been demon
strated in this special session, can
block the wheels of legislation to the
injury of the whole country, and the
Importance of applying some remedy
is very apparent. There always has
been majority in the senate in favor
of the repeal of the Sherman act, and
the people will rejoice when obstruc-
tionists are forced to capitulate uncon-
ditionally and their farcical and dis
graceful proceedings end in their COM
plete discontinue.

In the meantime there Is abso-

government being shaken or over

mate action of the United States be
delayed for months, Hawaii viii
still be found waiting and confident
that nothing viii be done to check
the present political enfranchise-

The position taken by Minister
Blount in regard to the demands of
the Japanese government for suf-
frage for Japanese residents in Ha-
waii has had a stimulating effect
on both the Provisional govern
ment and the American colony
here. 1t is believed the position of
the United States minister fairly
outlines the future policy to be
pursued by that government re-
garding the protection of American
interests here. The friendly att
tude of Minister Blount prior to his
departure and the prompt action of
Rear-Admiral Skerrett quite lately,
when he thought the peace and
quiet of the community was threat
ened, are In line with the United
States policy, as it has been inter-
preted here by Americans and the
government for the past three
months. It is not to be understood
that the Provisional government is
in need of assistance in preserving
the peace of the community, but
rather that it is not the intention

THE SITUATION.

4 The attempts Of the royalists to
misrepresent the strength of the
Provisional government abroad has
signally failed. Every mail from
the United States brings fresh evil
dence that the Hawaiian situation
is thoroughly understood in United
States official circles. The royalists
are at last feeling, although they
may not admit it, that there is lit
tie use in kicking further against
the inevitable destiny of the coun-
try. Hawaii has outgrown the old
monarchical form of government,
and since last January restoration
has become an impossibility
through the force and logic of
events. The fight between the old
and the new is virtually over in
these islands, and the din of that
conflict has been succeeded by the
disappointed cries and protests of
the minority.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1893-08-24

The financial condition Of the
country shows a gradual improve
ment, and the importations and
circulation Of money for the past
few months compare most favor
ably with the conditions of one year
ago. The actual current revenue
for the first six months Of the year
shows a large excess when com
pared with the corresponding
period under the monarchy. The
cash balance in the treasury to-day
is more than double the balance in
the treasury year ago. Add 10 this
the fact that public confidence has
been so restored since the fall of the
monarchy that there is now a steady
demand and sale of government
bonds, and there is no longer any
doubt as to the prosperous and sol
vent condition of the country and
the popularity of the government.
1t is the general belief here that
all that is now needed to open
new era of prosperity to Hawai- Is
the formal assurance by the United
States that stable government in
some form viii be guaranteed in
the near future.
