Bound for this Port.

SAN FRANCIsCO.-There was a great
rush yesterday at the Mare Island Navy
Yard, preparing the United steamers
Adams and Ranger for sea. The form
er vessel, instead of going direct to the
Asiatic station to relieve the Alert and
Petrol, which have been ordered from
Yokohama to the Behring sea, will
leave on Tuesday for Honolulu to re-
lieve the Boston, so that the cruiser
may return here to go on the dry dock
to be cleaned and painted. After that
it is likely that the Boston, unless or
dered to Behring sea, will 90 back to
her station at Honolulu. The Adams
will then go to the Atlantic station, un-
less her orders should be changed
meanwhile.

The Pelew islands have about 10,
600 inhabitants and are very fertile.
Their situation is between the Philip

WILL DO THE FAIR THING.

In their wrath at losing a favorite
issue the royalist papers are trying to
convince the natives that the leaders Of
the annexation cause are deceiving them
about the suffrage. That is to say, men
whose word has never been impeached
in this community, who have done
business with Hawaiians all their lives
and gained their respect and confidence
and who have ever treated them with
perfect good faith are now leagued in a
conspiracy of falsehood to defraud them
of civil rights. To state the case is to
show how prepOsterous it is, but when
one looks at the men who make the
accusation, its indecency and impu-
dence become its most particular as
pect.
That the annexationists are sincere
in their pledge to the natives their
character ought to attest. Suffrage, to
be sure, is not theirs to give, either to
themselves or other people. Such
matters must be left to Congress; but
one thing they can and will do which
must decisively affect the legislation
that Congress will enact: They can
decline to ask for any rights for them.
selves which the natives will not share.
That is the programme briefly and fair
ly stated and the natives may depend
upon its being carried out. Any scheme
of civil rights which Congress will be
urged to adopt must deal justly by the
native population here.
The Hawaiians may safely trust their
cause to the great representative body
of American lawmakers which has
never refused to extend the voting priv
ilege to worthy hands, The ballot
has been in turn intrusted to the Creole,

Admiral Brown Misguided.

INDIANAPOLIS (Ind.) }, April S.-Ad
miral George Brown was asked to day
about the late dispatch from Honolulu
which stated that John Cummins, one
of the leading natives of the islands,

in which the latter said he favored a
monarchy and would do all he could
for its re-establishment.

is mentioned here" said the Admiral,

written him since the change in the

MOTT-S SMITHS STORY.
He Says That Cleveland Has Drawn
Up A New Treaty.

Boston, April S.-Mort Smith, the
Hawaiian Minister declares that, in his
belief, President Cleveland has drawn
up treaty with the islands, but just
what it is no one appears to know but
himself. For that matter, no one
knows what he proposes to do with it.
Nothing will be done in the matter until
Commissioner Blount is heard from,
They have all the facts now, suppose,
but the Democrats want to have them
come from their own representative.
In other words, they want to find out
for themselves.
AS far as the natives are concerned,
they would naturally prefer to remain
as they are, while the resident Amer
leans want annexation for what they
can make out of it.

Wampole's
Tasteless
Preparation
Cod Liver Oil.

1t aims to cure Consumption,
Hits the Mark, too, and it
most effectually breaks up Colds,
Coughs, Hoarseness and all
Throat and Lung troubles that
cause this disease.
1t is natural logic to conclude
that if WAMPoLE's PREPARATION
OF COB LIVER OIL has power
to prevent Consumption, it sure
ly is able to cure these lesser
emergencies.
This vigor-making, fat pro-
ducing preparation is Absolute
ly Tasteless, in SO far as Cod
Liver Oil is concerned. All
you notice is a delightful flavor
of Wild Cherry and Anise.
But the purest Norwegian
Cod Liver Oil is there all the
same. 1t is great blood en-
richer. Best of all it is a natu-
raj food that in its stomachic
effects, actually assists its own
assimilation.
In Pulmonary or Bronchial
troubles it is unequalled. No
one doubts the value of Cod
Liver Oil, but not every one is
able to take it.

THE MOSQUITO.

For the comfort Of tourists, if for no
other reason, the government ought to
try and abate the mosquito nuisance.
Unhappily, as this insect is not a native
of Hawaii nei, it has no natural enemy
here to prey upon it and keep its
numbers down. If such an enemy
could be found and imported, the result
would be the same as that which befell
the cottony cushion scale in California
when the Australian lady bug was
brought over the sea and turned loose
among the infected trees. In year or
two after the mosquito eater had arrived
the barbed insect would be compare
lively rare on the islands, and, as Ha-
waiian areas are limited, TIE pest might
be eradcated altogether.
