1t is to be expected, then, that the
pay roll Of the police will prove to
be similar comparison. Why
should not Hawaiians be employed
in the Government service? Are
they to be set aside to make room
for those who have no interest in
this country whatever? And are
they to be made to feel that they
are being employed as a special
favor, or for charity's sake? That
is Just what the Hawaiians may ex-
pect, in the event of the Stars
annexation scheme being carried
through.
This is the latest from that Chris
tian, the Rev. S. E. Bishop. 1t ap-
pears in the Friend for September,
on the page set apart for the use of
the Hawaiian Board, the matter on
which page, Mr.. Bishop requested
the Advertiser OF last Wednesday
to state, was written by him. He
says, with the improved prospects
of the Hawaiian people in the re-
moval Of the corrupting influences
of the monarchy our girls school,
rightly supported, will contribute
essentially to the uplifting of the
people" Fancy Mr.. Bishop writing
in that manner of the Queen, of a
lady who is more of a Christian than
some Of those who openly profess
Christ, and have been preaching
Christ to her subjects.
Mark the difference, the Principal
of the Kawaiahao Seminary said in
the BULLETIN the other evening that
the Queen has always taken a deep
interest in Kawaiahao Seminary,
both by her good advice and material
aid" Has S. E. Bishop done as
much as thatf 1t is well known that
/ through the interest taken by the
Queen in the education of Hawaiian
girls, larger number have been
schooled there than otherwise would
have been. Let the Queen and other
Hawaiian patrons withdraw theil
support, what will become of the
school7 Has it not depended nearly
entirely on the support received
from Hawaiians? OBSERVER.

THE CIPHER CODE IN COURT,
Exposure of the Methods of Gov.
ernment Officers and Others
in the Portland Ring.

PORTLAND. Dec. 13-In the Chinese con-
spiracy case this morning the court over
ruled the objections Of the defense and the
examination Of Blum proceeded. Blum
testified to an agreement entered into be-
tween Dun bar, Thompson, JackliDg and
himself to bring in Chinese and the steps
necessary to that end. Dunbar introduced
Blum to p. j. Bannon, TO whom Blum gave
a form of certificate to be drawn. Bannon
drew up five hundred blank certificates.
which. with the notarlal seal. be delivered
TO Blum, who took the certificates and
seal 10 Victoria, where he arranged with
Major John Wilson and the Chinese
opium dealers to supply Chinese laborers,
who, when provided with the certificates
and photographs, were to be shipped to
Portland on the steamers Wilmington and
Haytian Republic at a total cost of SIPS
each.
Glen o. Holman also furnished blank
certificates. Blum further testified that
the agreement with &. j. Mulkey, who at
the time was Special Agent Of the Treas
ury Department, was that he should be
paid $1,000 month for his non-interter-
ence.
Nathan Blum continued his testimony
this afternoon. The prosecution intro
duced number of letters purporting to
have been written by L. j. Mulkey, who
was on Puget Sound, TO Blum, regarding
Chinese shipments. The letters were
signed John" and addressed to John
Quinlap. Blum's alias In the cipher code,
used by the Merchants Steamship CON-
pany. was introduced. The words, "Great
MnUui ~ ncan N h0
ministration at WashiD gton. Papa" was
the cipher for Collector Lotan. and
"Auntie" meant spe cial agents Of the
treasury.
Blum testified that on different occasions
be paid Mulkey various sums of money.
The prosecution also introduced sixty
seven letters purporting to have been writ
ten by Dunbar and Blum to Major Wilson,
their agent in Victoria. Wilson claimed
that Dunbar and Blum had broken faith
with him, so be turned the letters over to
Special Agent Wood. Blum testified that
Collector Lotan received $50 apiece for
Chinese that were landed. Deputy Col
lector c. B. Cardinell also received a part
of the S120, which Blum says his company
received for bringing the Chinese into
port On karch l, 1888. he testified. Lotan
received $500 from Seid Back, the Chinese
merchant. Thus far the only officers of
the Government Blum has implicated are
x-Coilector Lotan, Deputy Collector Car
dinell and Special Agent Mulkey. Direct
examination of Bum was not completed
when the court adjourned, and he will
probably be on the stand all day to-mor-
row. The trial will probably extend into
next week.
