THAT DEMON TREE"
The Examiner Steals a Story
From the Advertiser.

Some months since there ap-
peared in this journal strange,
weird story entitled "The Demon
Tree of Hawaii" written by one of
our occasional contributors, Mr.. E.
Ellsworth Carey. The story was
of the highly imaginative order of
the Rider Haggard school, and
caused considerable comment. The
only reason why the matter is here
referred to is because the San
Francisco Examiner lately pirated
the story, and published it inter-
woven with a love story, which was
probably also a plagiarism. The
"demon tree" furnished the thrill
ing points for the concoction, and
some of the passages were taken
word for word from the ADvER-
User.
1t is pleasant to know that the
ADVERTISER is read abroad, and it
is certainly a compliment to have
its articles reproduced even al
though they are stolen, and no
credit is given, for as a rule lite
rary pirates do not care to purloin
unless it appears to have
some merit The Examiner fabri-
cation is called "A Moment of
Horror" and the demon tree is
in an illustration as in
with an unfortunate indi-
vidual who approached too near.

Some Thoughts on the Annexa-
ton Question.

Mr. EDITOR: The writer was in
Brazil few weeks before the revolu-
ton which deposed the Emperor Dom
Pedro and substituted republic for
monarchial government which had
for its head one Of the most enIighten-
ed and humane rulers of the age; he
was also in Buenos Ayres at the time
of the revolution at that place some
four years ago, in which a thieving
despot, masquerading as President of
the Argentine Republic, and a gang
of inscriptions politicians who were
his subservient tools were overthrown
and driven from office; and was also
in Chilli a few weeks before the
breaking out Of the revolution there,
but was fortunate enough to get out
of that country before hostilities ac-
tually commenced.
After q residence of couple of
years in California after n1y South
American travels was impeIled TO
visit the Hawaiian Islands. arriving
in the Paradise Of the Pacific but a
few weeks since. You NAV imagine
my surprise, Mr.. Editor, to find nv
self in the midst of a fourth revolu-
ton, but happily like that in Brazil
a bloodless one. To one who has &C
tually witnessed the horrors of the
Buenos Ayres revolution, the bonn
bardment of the city by the insurgent
The Hawaiian gazette., 1893-02-07
Fair Play.

Ms. EDITOR: The reactionary
newspapers of this city are clamor-
ing that the Provisional Govern
ment should publish to the world
the instructions given TO its ENJOYS
who have been sent to Washington.
This has not been done in the case
of any former embassy sent from
this country. It might as well be
demanded that the ex-Queen pub
lish the instructions given to Mr..
Neumann.
At the same time, the secretly
concocted Constitution which was
sprung upon the country on the
14th of January. is still carefully
concealed from the public. The
ex-Queen stated that she had ''pre-
pared a constitution in which the
rights of all have been regarded
one suited to the wishes of the
people
If so, can it be that her advisers
are ashamed to allow it to be pub
lished, or fear that it may preju-
dice her cause abroad J..
A State-paper that has precipi-
tated a revolution is certainly of
too great historical Importance to
be thus suppressed
In the name of truth and justice,
let the original document, duly
attested, be given to the world by
its authors, whoever they may be.
FAIR PLAY.

An Attempt at Intimidation.

Nh. EDITOR The Daily Bulle-
tin of yesterday devoted a promi-
nent editorial TO the fact that three
gentlemen, whose names it parades
as eonspicuously as possible, have
seen fit to withdraw their subscrip-
tons, and that one of them has
also ordered his business card out
of the advertising columns. Most
people dislike notoriety, and are
naturally averse to seeing their
names spread in the newspapers
particularly with disparaging COM
ments. The Bulletin is doubtless
aware of this fact, and proposes TO
turn it 10 business account. Yes
terday's editorial is to be taken as
a distinct notice that anyone who
presumes to withdraw his patron
age from that sheet may expect TO
see his name paraded in its col
umns as engaged in q mean con-
spiracy to break down the freedom
and independence Of the press, and
all that sort of thing. People
should understand that TO be at
tackled by the Bulletin is an honor, |
and should regulate their conduct
accordingly. y.

1000 Bell, -

Nh. EDITOR: Permit me to-day a
few words in regard to an article
which came out in this mornings
ADVERTISER about the Police Station
and "290 Bell" I had scarcely ap-
peared on the street, seated behind
my charger, when 1 was stopped by
first one and then another with
sHello, 290i" What's all that fuss
about that bell now, Mr.. Editor7
1t goes to prove one thing very
clearly. What you have said about
the ADVERTISER is only too true.
IF you don't take the ADVERTISER
you don't get the news!" 1 think
nearly every one must take the AID
vERTIsER or read it at least, for the
whole town seemed to know about
the 29O Bell. We realize that for
ourselves. If you don't take the AD-
vERTIsER you don't gel the news;
hence we subscribe for it and have
for several years now. In regard to
that 290 Bell, we must explain for
the benefit of the public. About one
year ago we got permission from the
Marshal to establish communication
between the Police Station and
our Office by means Of an electric
bell. We went to the well-known
firm of E. o. Hall & Son and gave
them the contract to put in the bell
which cost In the neighborhood of
$40. When some of the other hack
companies became aware of the fact,
they went to the Marshal and asked
permission to put in a bell. They
were told they could put in one at
their own expense the same as 290,
but they did not do it. Perhaps the
cost was more than what it was
worth Mr.. Editor, / hope you can
see that there is no Doodle about |
this. Our motto is and always has
been strict attention to business.
We cater to the public and do not |
care whether man is a Jew or q
Gentle, nor what his religion or po-
litical opinions are. We simply |
want all the trade We can get.
We do not owe a single dollar to |
anyone. Ask the different business
men we do business with. They viii |
tell you our credit is as good as
bank The Mckinley bill dealt Us a |
severe blow as well as the rest of the
community, but We are still doing a
thriving business.
Now, Mr.. Editor, thanking you for
Tour valuable space, We remain very |

HIS WIFE WAS TOO GOOD.

a London Man Had Planned n Specula-
tlon, But His WHO Spoiled 1t.
"Your worlds fair souvenir half dol
lar reminds me of singular incident"
said Ralph c. Watson, of London, in the
hearing of ST. Louis Globe
Democrat reporter. During the
queens jubilee all England was
flooded with jubilee coins. The
largest denomination was 4 five pound
sterling gold piece, and from that down
to farthing. After the jubilee all
those special coins that found their way
back to the Bank of England were taken
out of circulation, and before it was
generally known that this was being
done ninety per cent. of the coins,
fancy, had found their way into the
nav of the old lady of Threadneedle
street. ....
81 was among the few who had sense
enough to keep set. had five
pound sterling piece. n sovereign, O
half-sovcrcign, crown, a four-shilliug
piece, u half-crown, q two-shilling bit,
one shilling, a siXpcncc, n fourpence, a
thrcepcncc, penny, half penny and
4 farthing. They lay idle in n box in
my dressing-casc for nearly four years.
thought nothing of them until one
day last summer, having buCinesS in
Glasgow, went there. Here the jubi-
Ice coins were 4 great rarity, and I
found that my collection, which
amounted to seven pounds, five snil-
lings, six pence, he penny, farthing,
would bring something like twelve
pounds .....E
"Now, thinks I, I'll just make that
five pounds like n wink, so I tcle-
graphcd my wife to forward tho box of
coins to me by express ut once. The
next day got Z letter from her inclos-
ing postal note fer seven pounds, six
shillings, a. note from the dear
woman saying that us long as was in
need CT thc money she thought the let
tcr-post quicker than the pacl1agc-post,
and mad had my coins exchanged for n
postal order, and added the change her
self to make it even money. Mad? was.
! not only lost my five pound spccula-
ton, but lost my jubilee coins as well;
but. say. it was rather thoughtful of
her, you know, and under any other
circumstances would have been very
gratifying" 8

In other parts Of this paper we
publish additional chapters from the
story of enforced idleness and star
walton which are found to-day in
every part of our land. Tits q shame
that in q country overAowing with
abundance these things should be
possible; and when we reflect that
they are made possible by q most in
famous conspiracy of our national
Legislators and government officials
with the pirates who are thus enabled
to prey upon the defenseless and the
helpless, the wonder is not that vio-
lence and crime are sensibly on the
increase, but that the enforced idlers
do not arise in q body and possess
themselves by force Of the necessi-
ties Of life. Their moderation rather
than the isolated examples OF vio-
lence that actually occur, is the thing
TO marvel at.

TIE MAYORALTY OF OUR CITY.

of mayor of the city Of Topeka to fill
vacancy caused by the resignation of
Mayor Jones it must be apparent to
all who have carefully observed the
proceedings up to thus time that, 80
far as the republican and democratic
parties are concerned, the contest is
one solely for the Office. There is no
principle involved in it, or if there is,
it has not been stated. The only rea-
son we have observed for a choice be-
tween the republican candidates
whose names were before the people
at the primaries was that the two re-
publican daily papers preferred the
one rather than the other; and, in
this republican stronghold, where q
nomination by that party has been
considered almost equivalent to an
election, the preference of the papers
has prevailed at the primaries. The
democratic convention, in nominating
its candidate to oppose the republi-
can nominees, has stated no differ
enoe Of principle between the
parties as a ground of preference for
the one over the other. All Of the
candidates whose names were consid-
cred in connection with the Office are
undoubtedly good citizens; at least
we know nothing to the contrary.
We know OF no reason why either Of
the nominees, if elected, will not be
likely to fill the Office crsditsbly. The
point we desire to raise is, what is
the issue in the contest between
them, aside from that of pure par
tissnship, that should lead the peo-
pie Of our city to prefer the one
above the other? If there is any
such reason it has not yet been
stated BY either party.
The Peoples party alone presents
vital question of public policy as an
issue between parties, and it ls one
that should at least claim the stten-
ton of our citizens. The practice of
granting to corporations, monopolies
Of all public utilities is one which we
believe to be incompatible with the
interests Of the people. Take our
street railways as an example. What
are they more than improved public
highwsysG All ordinary street i'm
provemsnts are made by the people
and the public enjoy the benefits Of
them. Is there any more reason why
the privilege 10 construct and oper-
ate q street railway for profit should
be granted to q corporation than
that a like privilege should be
granted to pave the public streets
and collect tribute above cost from
the people for their use9 If there is,
We fail to see it. If profit must
accrue from the operation of these
utilities, it should revert to the peo-
pie. It should 60 into the public
treasury, and thereby reduce taxa
tion to that extent.
But there are good reasons why
these things should not be operated
