Mr. Mitchell has a grievance. II may be said
here that Mr.. Mitchelis early education was
neglected. and he was sent to the treadmill to
teach him a few of the documentary branches
because he knocked down a feeble old man and
would probably have killed him had not some
one interfered. Mr.. MItchells grievance IL

Possibly thew are not. and IL they are not II il

Had there been a solid founda,
ton upon which to base opposition
to the new order of government the
result might have been different
in other words, the ex-queen's
cause might have stood the light of
civilization and political criticism
longer than it has, before the break
down came which has fully admit
ted the righteousness and Justice
of the revolution of last January.
The people of Hawaii now fully
appreciate the truth that revolu-
tons of this character cannot go
backward and the cause of self
government and advance of civil
cation be conserved. 1t is this fact
being brought home to the tax
payers Of Hawaii day by day for
the last few months that has con-
solidated the forces of good govern
ment and determined the bulk of
the people, who are the bone and
sinew Of the country, to face the
future rather than to hope for the
past, where there is no hope. The
balance of the monarchical scale
has kicked the beam and the peo-
pie feel the solid earth beneath
them once more.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1893-08-01

visional government represents no
clique or faction in politics, but is
the coeficient of a political prin-
ciple which lies deep in the will
of the people who pay for the
development and advancement of
the material resources Of the coun-
try, and are hence responsible for
good government in the Hawaiian
islands. Monarchy has failed ; the
people Of this country viii be true
to the trust and great responsible
ties placed in their hands by the
events of the past six months. The
monarchy has failed. Be it so;
good government has been estab-
lished, and it viii stand in the
name of western civilization in
Hawaii, in spite of opposition, and,
we believe, with the consent and
of the government of the
United States of America.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1893-08-01
TIE SITUATION

The most marked characteristic
of the royalist cause lately has
been the evident and daily signs
of its disintegration. The bodily
health of the ex-queen's party has
been failing for some time, and the
public became aware that the de-
cline was affecting the brain when
that cane disgrace was perpetrated
on Minister Blount the day the
steamer Australia left these shores.
1t is creditable to the public intel
ligence that it read Alright the signs
Of approaching political imbecility
weeks before the overt act was
committed which consigned the
remnant of the old palace crowd to
the limbo builded by its own hands.
On the other hand, it is again cred
liable to public intelligence that the
Provisional government has been
endorsed and sustained against the
assaults of the Observation-Disclosures,
led by the sugar trust through its
willing political tool Mr.. Claus
Spreckels. 1t has not been long
that Hawaii has been in a posi-
ton where she could successfully
hurl back the dictation and de-
mands of the Spreckels firm and
family; but things have changed
even in Hawaii. The 18th of last
January marks the fall of the Ha-
waiian Bastile, and the people who
pay the taxes viii hereafter run
the government.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1893-08-01

The fact that the Provisional
government is strong, is largely
due to the new policy it has pur-
sued, unweighted by the incubus
which hung around the neck of all
government during the days of the
monarchy. The dignified stand
which the government has taken
since it came into power has been
mainly felt in its promotion of the
welfare of the country, and the re-
spect it has shown to the authority
of the laws. Since it came into
power no law has been violated or
set aside upon a political pretext-
a thing almost unknown before.
The finances of Hawaii have been
Strengthened out for the first time
in years, and last, but not least, a
dignified and honorable stand has
been taken on the matter of our
foreign relations. The Provisional
government has won the respect
of the entire civilized world, and
especially of the United States of
America in spite of the hive-like
misrepresentation which the mort
bund monarchy has winged
through hired correspondents to
the ends of the earth.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1893-08-01

The proceedings in bankruptcy
being taken against Mr.. Samuel
Parker have raised very little COM
ment. As far as Mr.. Parker is per-
sonally concerned, it is a misfor-
tune, but one which has long been
looked for. The only surprise ex-
pressed has been that the crash did
not happen long ago. Yet there is
a lesson attached to Mr.. Parker's
misfortune which should not be
overlooked. Samuel Parker, ESQ,
belongs to a class of native resi-
dents who have long aspired to lead
public affairs, and most of whom
have failed in the financial man
agement of their own affairs. In
fact the men referred to have onlv
displayed an inclination to turn to
politics and governmental affairs
when they have felt their wealth
slipping away through their per-
sistent improvidence. The result
has been that instead of developing
statesmen the country has been
cursed during the last ten years of
the monarchy, with a needy crowd
OF political parvenus, who have
disgraced both themselves and the
country.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1893-08-01
MELANGE.

The news article which appeared
in the San Francisco Chronicle Of
July 10, out of which the royalists
are endeavoring to suck drop Of
consolation, has the misfortune to
be founded wholly upon opinion
without regard to the facts. The
Associated Press dispatches by
British Columbia contained moth
ing upon which to base such an
opinion, and the only sentence
therein which might give rise to
such q view was added to the dis
patches after their arrival in San
Francisco, and was entirely with
out the authority of fact. The
news article out of which our roy
alist friends are endeavoring to
manufacture criticism on the
segregation policy of the Provi-
sional government, bears the very
evident ear marks of certain firm
of San Francisco royalists, who,
following the lead of the sugar
trust, are endeavoring to discredit
the present government at all times
and by any means. There will
probably be similar news articles"
in the San Francisco
press Immediately after the arrival
of the steamer Australia, but we
doubt very much whether they will /
be quoted here by the royalist press
since the disgraceful happenings of
the past week.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1893-08-01

Egypt and Hawaii-Many paral-
lels between Egypt and Hawaii
have been suggested from time to
time by observers of the course of
Hawaiian affairs. Kalakaua, on a
smaller scale, emulated the reckless
career of prodigality which drove
the Khedive Ismail into exile, and
saddled Egypt with her monu-
mental debt; out happily the revo-
luton of 1887 broke up his mad
schemes and saved him and his
kingdom from similar fate.
Here, as in Egypt, race jealous
les have greatly aggravated the
evils of the situation, but in less
degree for the term "haole" has
not quite become the equivalent of
"giaour," nor are the "kahunas ("
as dangerous as the Mohammedan
"ulema." In the same way Arab
Bey, with his war cry of Egypt
for the Egyptians" has been paro-
died by professional agitators here
with their denunciations of the
"white invaders"
The position of England, with
her unavowed protectorate in
Egypt, strikingly resembles that of
the United States in Hawaii, and
the same reasons make it difficult
for either nation to renounce the
duties and responsibilities which it
has assumed.
The bitter jealousy shown by
the French residents in Egypt, and
their opposition to every reform in
that country, is paralleled by the
Americophobia of a certain class
of foreign residents in Honolulu,
which leads them to work with the
party of reaction, and to oppose
the only course that can secure
peace and prosperity to this
country.

the past week

There is something Incompetent
sible in the late actions of Mr.. J. 0.
Carter, which his friends do not at
tempt to understand and which,
almost without exception, they re-
greet. The fact is undeniable that
Mr.. Carter's name was never men
toned in connection with the action
of the board of health in the Kala-
lau affair, until after an unwar-
ranted attack was made upon Pres
ident w o. Smith, by the evening
paper, presumably acting as Mr..
Carriers mouthpiece since his resig-
nation from the board. Those who
have closely watched Mr.. Car
ter's political career since the cam
paign of 1S90-91, do not feel the
same surprise as do those who still
persist in comparing his previous
record and fight for good govern
ment in Hawaii with his later
course and position.

TIE EGYPTIAN PARALLEL,

England in Egypt-Mr. Alfred
Miners recent work on England
in Egypt" is full Of interest for The
statesman, the economist and the
philanthropist. But to US in Ha,
wall mel it has a peculiar interest
on account Of the strange resem-
blances as well as the differences
which exist between the political
conditions and problems Of the two
countries. From our limited ex-
perience here with races of Asiatic
origin, we can understand the
Egyptian situation better than Eu-
ropeans or Americans who theorize
about it at home.
While admiring the grand
achievements of England in Egypt
for the cause of civilization and
humanity, such as the reform of
her finances. the reduction of the
interest on her national debt to
three per cent, the regulation and
reduction of the taxes, the abolition
of forced labor and of the bastin-
ado, the new irrigation works,
which have increased production
one-half, as well as the great re-
forms in justice and education the
impartial looker-on must yet admit
that these benefcent reforms are
founded on the sand.
England is in a false position |
there. A yelled protectorate,"
which may be withdrawn at any
time, is an illogical, irritating and .
insecure state of things. 1t is
mainly owing to the extraordinary
administrative and diplomatic
ability OF Sir Evelyn Barring, now
Lord Cromer, that such a vicious
arrangement has been made to
work successfully for the time.
The great mistake was made in not
proclaiming protectorate after the
victory of Tel ell Kebir, at the close
of 1852, which might have then
been done with the consent of Eu-
rope.
No one who has any insight into
Oriental character will believe that
the Egyptians can become fitted to
maintain a civilized government in
ten years, or twenty years. twill
be the work of generations, If not
Let England withdraw
now, and the seven evil spirits of
the old despotism viii return, and
"the last state of Egypt "be worse
than the first"

The future rises like a star be-
fore the new nation. Its magni-
tude is as yet undetermined, but it
cannot be less than the will of the
people of these islands determine
it; and the protection of western
civilization will see that its luster
is not dimmed before its destined
meridian is reached. The Pro-

Taken in detail the facts show
somewhat more variety, but none
the less of the good results accruing
to the country under the new re-
gime. The policy which the gov
eminent is following in regard to
the segregation of the lepers is re-
ceiving the endorsement of the
foreign population Of the islands,
with very few exceptions. These
exceptions mark those politicians
and prominent royalists, profess
sional and layman, who are prone
to repeat the old political dodge
of the Gibson political infamy, BY
