THE Royalist rumors which have
been flying about remind one of
the gossip caused last April by the
alleged remark of Mr.. Blount to
one of the Macfarlanes-namely,
that his program was only half
finished" We were to have resto-
ration then at once if not sooner.
Since that time the predicted resto-
ration days have numbered twenty
nine in all, and yet the House of
Dominis is farther in the cold than
ever, and the American Minister
calmly abides by his instructions to
so advance the interest and pros
perity of the United States and the
Provisional Governments as to make
himself acceptable to President
Dole. Plainly, all this makes
rather arctic background upon
which to produce any warm illusions
of a Monarchist revival.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1893-11-15

THE Holomna has satisfied its
inner major inner dog-that the
Royalist hold-overs should be kept
in Office. Speaking Of the Hawai-
ian diplomatic corps, the Citizens
Reserve, Annexation Club, the
American League and Of men of
the class of w. R. Castle, S. +.
Bishop, c. L. Carter, DR.. McGrew,
John Emmeluth, c. P. Ripley and
w. w. Hall, the Monarchist organ
says: "a Ministry which has the
confidence of the revolutionary
party cannot be dictated to by small
factions of illiterate, disgruntled
soreheads. No doubt the inter
ference of the H0lomna in behalf of
its friends in office will prove in
structive to the Ministry as to the
political views and character Of
these incumbents. Some revelation
of the sort has been needed, APP
parently, to show the real strength
and personnel of the retention
movement. Obviously it now ap-
pears to be pretty well confined to
the conspirators against the Gov
eminent and the former banditti Of
the crown.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1893-11-15

THERE is twice as much reason
to turn out Royalist officials here
than there is to remove Republican
holdovers in the United States.
In the latter country the removals
being made are for politics only.
In Hawaii they are demanded on
grounds of both politics and public
safety. Abroad no question of
common loyalty is raised, but here
it is imperious, and adds to the
strong party argument for change,
the plea Of protection to the Gov
eminent itself.

AN additional list of down trod-
den Hawaiians, whose native right
to run the Government has been
despotically abridged, was sent to
the STAR Office this morning. 1t
includes such indigenous names as
John Bowler, Ned Thomas, Tom
Rawlins, George Hawkins, Billy
Cunningham, Charles Creighton,
Charles Peterson, Carson Kenyon
and James Robertson. All these
gentlemen are prominent in the
movement to restore the Queen"
to the end that the holy cause of
Hawaii for the Hawaiians" may
not be trampled in the dust. Can
it be that they mean Hawaii for
the Englishmen" and have tripped
up on the phraseology' The fates
forbid!

Aim at the Drake
Wampole's
TasteleSs
Preparation
OF
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 COP LIVER OIL has power
to prevent Consumption, it surely
is able to cure these lesser emer-
gencies.
This vigor-making, fat-produc-
ing preparation is Absolutely
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 enricher. Best
of all it is natural food that in its
stomachic effects actually assists
its own assimilasion.
In Pulmonary or Bronchia
troubles it is unequalled. No
one doubts the value of Cod Liver
Oil, but not every one is able to
take it.
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
Removes the nauseous objection
and actually makes Cod Liver
Oil palatable.

THE most scathlng eTPoSs of the
grosser features OF the late mon
archy which Mr.. Blount obtained
for the historical chapter Of his re-
port was Colonel Volney V. Ash
ford's remarkable narrative which
we give the Hawaiian public in to-
nights STAR. The subject matter
has never been published before on
these Islands, though it appeared
in the Honolulu correspondence Of
the Chronicle last April, some three
months after the monarchy had
been overthrown. The present in
terest in the facts thus marshalled
is due to the assertion of Royalist
paper that Mr.. Blount's report,
which Mr.. Willis is supposed to
have read, contained no evidence
to Justify the specific arraignment
of the Royal family and its hangers
on and Of its methods of governing
which lately saw print in this jour.
nal ; but on the contrary that il
had exonerated the lost cause from
the blame thus bestowed. The
Ashford revelations, made as they
were at Mr.. Blount's request, serve
to show with great clearness the
kind of material which Mr.. Cleve.
lands Commissioner was willing to
receive for the uses of his Govern.
ment. Naturally, there is small
comfort for the Royalists in that.

WHILE we know of no candi-
dates for the off cial posts held by
the Monarchist faction, it is fair to
presume that there are plenty of
good men who might be had if
wanted. If any Minister doubts it
let him canvass the business, manu-
featuring and commercial places
where there are bright young fell
lows, trained to business and loyal
to the core, and see if any of them
would take up with fair offer. 1t
is no sign of lack of proper material
that men do not force themselves
upon the notice of the Cabinet and
make opportunity by importantly.
That sort of modesty should be
looked upon as recommendation.
