lures, in place of running into debt,
AS TIE MONARCHY ALWAYS DID. The
fact that $4,000 worth of bonds
have been subscribed to date,
and that more are being applied
for daily, simply shows the people
of Hawaii are standing behind the
Provisional government, not only
to clear the country of the deb Of
the rotten monarchy, but TO place
the islands upon their feet to face
the world and ask a future. This
has now been accomplished, and Il
cuts our royalist friends like a knife.
We wish to remind them that if
the surplus in the treasury at the
end of eight months is over $780,
900, there is not much chance for
the treasury balance" to fall short
at the end of the year, only four
months hence. See?

is a general cry for rain, but Mons.
Pluvius is deaf to all the prayers of
sinful Hamakuans. Lately We have
had some indications of rain, but
the wind rises and disperses the
clouds every time. Ookala and
other plantations towards Hilo
have had some rain this week.
We have had three Honolulu
mails and one from Hilo this week.
The Waialeale came in at PIP.

this morning at 6 o'clock went up
the coast as far as Ookala and re-
turned at 3 P. 81 to Paauhau, and
is loading sugar. She leaves Fri
day morning at S o'clock for Homo

passenger to Makawao Miss Lydia

Merchants Of Honolulu have
waited the arrival of the 2 hug
er with the same anxiety as
the Victorians will scan the
horizon for the masts OF the
Miowera. The absence of
cable delays the transmitting
Of accounts of the disaster.
Had the Pf1uger gone down
between Bremen and Honolu-
lu, the loss to the merchants
and people who are interested
in ranches In the Hawaiian
Islands would have been meal
culable. Last week there was
practically a wire famine in
this country. today there is a
feast and we have it spread all
over one of our warehouses
The thousands Of coils of black
and galvanized wire which
we have just received will re-
lieve the market and the
managers orowners of ranches
on the islands can 60 ahead
with their fencing as before.
We have turned over the
building of fences during the
past few months, by the intro
duction of a patent locked
fence. The materials for max
ing it is sold by US with plain
every day wire. By the use of
these patented arrangements
a man can construct ii strong
Ell fence for less money than
by the old fashioned methods.
Practically you dispense with
constantly rotting posts; where
in the old style you set posts
five or ten feet apart, by the
new way you place them fifty
and have a fence so strong
that it will resist the attacks
of whole herd of cattle. In
the matter of repairs to old
fences, one man can take ma
terials enough on his horse to
put miles of it in good order.
For the past three months, not
a week has gone by without
our receiving orders from ma
nagers Of plantations for this
style fence. The popularity is
growing and we are sole agents
on these islands.

A NEW DEPARTURE.
The First Circular of the Ra-
waiiau Safe Deposit
Company.

The first quarterly circular of
the Hawaiian Safe Deposit and In
vestment Company was published
October I'd. This circular is a new
departure in the islands, and a
very welcome one. 1t sets forth
the capital stock, par value and
number of shares issued of ali
stock companies in the islands,
together with the dividends de-
clared from January to October,
1893, and also the amounts asked
and bid for the stock.
The circular also calls attention
to the advantages offered to in
vestors in the purchase of the
bonds issued on several of the
sugar estates of the islands. 1t
points out the fact of the safety of
investment in sugar stocks, and
says "those who are satisfied with
a seven per cent. net income cannot
find better or safer investment
for their money"
a glance at the circular, showing
the dividends paid on some of the
stocks, will make some of the
GROWERS about hard times "
change their opinion.

THE IA WAIIAN SITUA TON.
1t Must Come Under the Unite d
States Flag.

States rag.
Minister Thurston, the represen-
tative of the Hawaiian government
at Washington, takes the cour-
ageous and manly view Of the
present situation with respect to
the annexation Of Hawaii. He de-
clares that the civilized and pro-
gressive element Of Hawai- has
never for a moment conceded the
possibility of the ultimate defeat of
annexation. Cali our plans" he
asserts, shave been made with a
view to an agreement with this
government. The whole islands
are hanging upon that hope"
These are the words of q loyal
son of Hawaii and an earnest
friend of the American Republic.
The energetic and intelligent Ha-
waiians, men of American speech,
American ideas and largely of
American descent, have given the
archipelago all the civilization and
prosperity that it possesses. They
have gained and held for the
United States, by superior energy,
integrity and industry, the natural
outpost of this country in the Pa
cific. But for their steadfdstness
and courage the swiftly decaying
race of aboriginal Hawaiians would
today be under the oppressive
domination of Great Britain, and
Hawaii would be a great British
stronghold menancing our Pacific
seaboard as Bermuda menances
our Atlantic coast.
These men have offered to the
United States a territory whose
strategic and commercial import
ance cannot be measured by
words. They have a right to
expect that they shall not be aban-
doned to anarchy or European des-
potism. Hawaii must be Ameri-
can. It's annexation is demanded
by every precedent in American
history and every principal of
broad and patriotic craftsmanship.
The Hawaiian islands guarding
our western coast and commanding
the ocean road to ASIA, will be
among the most valued territorial
possessions of the Continental
American republic of the twentieth
century.-N. Y. Press.

Robert Louis Stevenson as a
King.

The London Spectator, referring
to the latest dispatches as to the
trouble in Samoa, asks: "Why
cannot the triangular squabble be
settled by making Mr.. Stevenson
king of Samoa, with power to draw
up, and add to his own constitu-
ton /? Mr.. Stevenson is full of
sympathy for all things American,
and has an American wife, so that
there need be no difficulty on that
score. The Germans would, no
doubt, have very little show ,
under the arrangement; and they
must therefore, we suppose, be
found territorial compensation else
where"

Speaking of n surplus in the
Hawaiian treasury, reminds us
that the ADVERTISER perhaps erred
in not pointing out that the ex-
penditures of $1,299,273.79 in
cluded over 100000 indebtedness
paid off by the Provisional govern
ment, contracted under the mon
archy in the Postal savings bank,
besides a large amount of floating
debts which it was impossible to
collect at all until the Provisional
government came into power.
Does our learned political contem-
porary, the Bulletin, remember the
time-say within three years
when the agents and representa-
tives of the late monarchy could
not get a bolt of calico or a case of
wine on credit ? when bills against
the ex-monarchy--even those for
funeral expenses-were offered on
the streets of Honolulu for twenty
five cents on the dollar =? We re-
peat that in spite of the heavy
draft caused upon the Hawaiian
treasury by the improvidence of
the ex-monarchy a surplus for cur
rent expenses has been created by
the Provisional government. This
surplus is not large, amounting to
only a hundred odd thousand dol
lars; but, such as it is, the money is
available for any public emergency,
and the people may rest assured it
will not be squandered on either
royal hulas or court favorites. The
monarchy is dead for keeps. If our
friends the royalists do not be-
lieve this plain statement of
palpable fact we will call attention
to the system introduced lately un-
der the Provisional government
which provides for monthly pay
nents Of all government expendi-

There is grave doubt in the
minds of the Hawaiian public
whether our public institutions, az
carried on under the monarchy,
especially during its last years,
compared favorably with the legis-
lative scenes Of the most advanced
nations or not. We do not in this
connection know what particular
instance, in the Legislative history
of the United States, one of our
royalist contemporaries refers to-,
and on this point ask an explana-
ton. The charges brought against
France and Great Britain, out of
the profoundness of our ignorance,
we can neither assert or deny. But
as tothe representative bodies of the
United States we have never under
stood that anything reaching the
political and moral aggregation of
ex-royality in Hawaii had ever
been introduced therein. Not half
of all the stuff Of recent past his
tory of the political and immoral
antics of the ex-monarchy has yet
been sent abroad, much less fabri-
Gated. Had the real and disgracet
full facts connected with the last
years of the Hawaiian monarchy
been told within the limits of civ
ilization, the supporters of the ex-
queen would never have dared
brand the late revolution az "dis-
graceful and lawless."

Tho Governors Gathering.

Governor McK1HNrY has secured the CO.
operation Of the Mayor, the President OF
the Chamber of Commerce, and the Presi-
dent OF virgina's World-Fair Commission
in the matter Of preparing for the sessions
of the Governors Convention, and the re-
ception and entertainment of Its delegates
As a result Of this combination Of forces
we may expect to have a programme ar
ranged which will DO agreeable to our
visitors and creditabc to our State and
city.
The convention is to meet hero April
18th and we suppose that one OF the halls
in the Capitol will be designated by the
Governor "a the place for its sessions. In
view Of the fact that the Senate chamber
10 where the Confederate House of Re
presentatives sat the governors might per-
haps ike TO meet there. The hall of the
House Of Delegates Is, however, larger.
and has two galleries for the public
whereas the Senate chamber has but one.
We doubt not that tho Governor will be
pleased 10 place either hall at the disposal
of the convention.
The convention will comprise the Gov
ernor. the Commissioner of Agriculture,
the Commissioner of immigration, &c.' OF
each southern State. The object of the
conference is to arouse the attention OF
the world to the resources OF the South
and to adopt measures to utilize the chi
capo exposition as far as possible in the
way of advertising to new settlers ana
capitalists from all sections of The United
States and from Europe the wonderful re-
sources and attractions of the southern

Whether Mr.. SHERMAN should have been

SAIL in few months, if possible, for tho
southern part Of Franz Josef Land, and
next year to push forward and establish a
station in "a or 50 degrees OF north lati-

would hope to go within 200 miles of the

MANY men OF many minds." The
Arctic explorers Willingly undergo pains,

serve the scientific world. Surely they are
the most unseliish of men. Nobody can
help being interested IN these polar expe-

ought to be willing 20 oXpend million or
two of dollars in researches of this kind.

but they would make some great discovery.
