KAIULANI HAS ARRIVED.

The Heiress Of the Hawaiian Throne
Reaches the Port of New York.
NEW York. March 81 Princess Kaiu-
Iani, niece of the deposed Queen Liliua-
kalani of Hawaii, is here. She arrived
during the day on the steamer Teutonic.
With her were Mr.. and Mrs. Davies,
who are the English guardians Of the
princess. Miss Davies and Miss Wharf
off, companions to the princess, were
also with the party.
G.. McFarlane. the .ex-minister of
finance to the detIroncd queen, and DR..
Mott Smith. the present Hawaiian min
lister to this country, went down the
bay to meet the young princess. There
was quite an arnl.t of 4. aaty seekers
on the pier TO. get q lapse Of the
princess. "A suite OF rosns had been
engaged for the party It tie Brevoort
House and they were driven there i'm
mediately after coming off the steam
ship.
Comes to Study Americans.
The princess is Is years old. She is a
tall. beautiful young woman of sweet
face and slender form. She has the
soft brown eyes and dark complexion
that mark Hawaiian beauty. She has
come to the United States, she says,
more for the purpose of learning and
observing for herself the nature of the
people who had been asked to take con.
troll of her country than to make formal
petition for her crown.
"That, she said, ''is rightfully mine,
and If the Americans are the noble
minded people have learned to regard
them to be, they will not be party to
the outrage by which have lost my
birthright"
In regard to her views on aspects
which the situation is likely to assume,
the princess referred to her guardian.
Mr.. Davies, who had prepared a state
ment both ON his and her behalf.
Will Visit Cleveland.
Mr.. Davies was delighted to hear that
the treaty for the annexation had taken
new turn in the senate and that il
was laid over for the consideration ol
the next administration.
1--WE will not go to Mr. Cleveland in
any official caracity," said Mr.. Davies
but simply as private individuals. What
his decision is viii scarcely be effected
by our visit. The princess felt that ir
the face of the threatened annexation o.
Hawaii by the United States she ought
to come here where she could learn di
rectly what was the true sentiment o.
the people.

Plain Dealing Dots.

A wind and rain storm passed here
Saturday night at $50 o'clock which
did much damage to the neighbor-
hood around.
Full particulars have not yet reach
ed us. East of here in the neighbor-
hood of Mr.. L. T. Sanders, huge
pines are thrown all over the woods,
fences are leveled, and corn blown
and beat into strings.
The front of the Plain Dealing
Hotel was swept of, also that of the

fat through the town, and I learned
that two had fallen on Prof. j. E

To the Press of North Louisiana
At the request of a good number
of our brethren interested in the
movement, I have selected Saturday,
June II next, at l o'clock P. M, at
Shreveport, as the time and place for
holding our North Louisiana Edito-
rial immigration Convention.
Believing that this movement will
be of much good to our territory
good many have already enlisted in
the cause, and it is to be hoped that
every newspaper in the province
mentioned will have a representative
at the meeting.
AS I have called the meeting by re-
quest, I hope that all members of the
press who will join US in the under
taking will reproduce this call as
often as they think nesessary, and
make editorial comment indorsing the
same thus adding to the spirit of the
movement, increasing the interest
therein and inducing others to lend
a helping hand.
Hoping that this will meet with
general approval and trusting that a
hearty response will be made to this
call, I remain your obedient servant,

The Court House Accepted.

AS will be seen by the proceed
iugs published elsewhere in tO-day's
Banner, the Police Jury of Bossier
parish has accepted the new Court
house Just completed at this place
by Messrs. Gibson & Oliff, and the
contractors have received their last
and final payment of $500 for the
building-the total amount paid to
them being S23,759 90.
The Banner Office is only short
distance west from the Court house,
and perhaps no One-if we except
Contractor ID. G. Gibson, Superin-
tendent s. I'll. Young and the many
workmen engaged thereon-has
watched more intently its construc-
ton and completion. From the cut
ting of the wood to burn the brick;
the moulding and burning of the
brick near the site-fr0m fOunda-
tion to steeple-during the many
months of its construction, we have
almost constantly watched the prog.
ress on this structure, as surely and
steadily it grew upwards, amid the
grand music of the trowels and
hammers of the deft builders-brick
upon brick and everything in its
place on to its complete and grand
propertiens-tbe Contractor tOiling
on patiently and perseveringly in his
work, which, to adopt Superintend
ent Young's words-who has con
stantly and devotedly been at biz
nost-is "a good Substantial an(
well-finlshed Court house."
In fact, everybody is pointing
with pride at the new Court house
And it deserves the compliment
which are being SO thickly heapet
upon it, for it is an ornament to th'
town and parish. Not only is i
strong, substantial and commodiOus
but it is also an attractive structure
and one which is a credit to Bos
aier.

difficulty that retailers aEes able to

begin to inquire into the cause of the
shortageand to wonder why things
are thus. They find on investigation
that the raw material is as plentiful
as ever, and that the amount CON
sumed is not more than the average.
They are told that the shortage is
brought on by the shortage inmoney,
the refners not being able to secure
enoughsto pay their help, and hence,
in many cases we're forced to tempor-

CHEAP LAND.

counts of the wild rush for the Chero-
.kee Strip to get cheap land. The
scene has changed, and now people
are rushing back to- civilization; they
are disappointediaths quality OF the
land; and watepl iss selling at$5 per
barrel. The old adage, Fields are
greenest at distance was true in
this case; people knowing actually
nothing of the quality of the land
until they got there, and the result is
sad disappointment. The govern
lnent price must be paid for thatland;
it must be brought under cultivation;
schools and churches must be- built,
as we'll as dwellings and barns;
markets must be established, and
last, and by no least, you must take
all the chances of the kind of society
you may be surrounded with.
| We draw this true picture to con-
trast the ills we know not OF
with a Minnesota home. Here are all
the advantages of civilized life ready
to hand, and plenty of as good land
and water as the sum shines upon in
any part of the world. The land il

Senator ShermaRs of Ohio,+ is per-

can as can be-. found in that party,
but his eu&hsasiam for his: political
creed by no means deters him from
seeing geodin others, who belong to
the party:goUerning- the present ad-
ministration. In making some re.
marks recently anent President
Cleveland and the financial question,
Senator Sherman spoke as follows:
"No one can view the conduct of
Grover Cleveland without being con-
>vinced of the greatness and goodness
of the man. His integrity, his fear
lesness, his gifts of mind must be
plain to anyone not utterly blinded
by partisanship. Cleveland is. per-
haps, the broadcast: minded man that
ever sat in the Preaiaent's chair. Be-
yond any of his predecessors he has.
the courage and the faculty of push
ing all the cabal and intrigue aside
and of addressing himself directly to
the people,. Friends. personal fol-
lowing, party, are nothing to him as
compared to ths;Welfape of the people,.
With my natural distrust of all Dea.a
ocratss I,might be, tempted to look
upon this phase of Cleveland's con-
duct merely as Bit of the ablest of
politics, but in honesty I must adj
NIT that.Ehave watched this man in
all the crisis Of national life in which
he has had part, and / cannot shale
off thegconviction of his superb abillt-
les and his magnificent patriotism
