DISHONEST JOURNALISM.

The Bulletin, either by violating
confidence or some more disreput-
able means, published last week
part of statement of facts relating
to the late overthrow of the mon
archy, prepared by ex-Minister
Stevens for the American press.
The fact that the document, even
in its garbled form, is the best
thing the Bulletin has published
for many months, does not in any
way excuse its act.
There is a point in journalism
where enterprise ceases and dis
honor begins. The facts connected
with the purpose and origin of the
document in question precludes the
plea that the Bulletin secured the
portion of Mr.. Stevens statement
published by either honest or hon
orable means. 1t is perhaps un-
necessary to add that the situation
occupied by the royalist organ
would be humiliating to any other
journal and party except those i'm
plicated. "
The facts regarding the docu-
ment mentioned are briefly these
Several days ago Mr.. Jno. L.
Stevens had the article, as pub
lished in the Bulletin, put in type
at the HAWAIIAN GAZETTE office.
His reasons for having it print
ed here in the form of slips was
to avoid the fatigue and misstate-
ments peculiar to press interviews
after his arrival in the United
States. 1t was Mr.. Stevens
special request that the strict
est business confidence should
be observed in the matter
so that the document would not be
published here until after it had
returned through the American
newspapers. 1t is needless, per-
haps, to state that this confidence
would not have been violated by
any respectable journal here or
elsewhere. Had the ex-queen pub
lished a similar document in the
GAZETTE office the same inviolable
confidence would have been OBJ
served.
Since, however, the leading royal
list newspaper in Honolulu has so
far forgotten the principles of hon
orable journalism, it becomes an
act of justice to ex-Minister Stew
ems to publish the entire text
of his statement, as amended
by him. This we publish else
where, although it is but fair
to state that the document may
receive further amendment at Mr..
Stevens hands before he uses it in
the United States.
The force of Mr.. Stevens state
ments has evidently been felt
already by the Bulletin, as the
only answer attempted is renewal
of the low-toned personal attack
on the ex-minister originally begun
in that paper. The public will not
be surprised at the course pursued
by the Bulletin in thus wantonly
abusing an absent man, who has
given no special provocation be-

LONDON. Nov. 1s.-Mello has pro.
claimed Louis PHILIPPE, SON of Count
d'Eu, the great Brazilian warrior, en-
peror Of Brazil. The young emperor Is
great grandson OF Louis PHILIPPE, of
France. and a grandson OF Dom Pedro,
who was driven from the Brazilian
throne when the republic was estab-
lished.
A dispatch to the ExcnAHge Tele-
graph Company says THAI Admiral
Mello, after his proclamation declaring
Prince Pierre D. Alcontora Louis Phil
lipe tson OF Count d'Eu) emperor OF
Brazil, proceeded to sea with his vessels
with the object Of intercepting the
Nictheroy or the other vessels purchased
abroad by the Brazilian government for
use against his feet
PARIS, Nov. 18.-Chevalier d'Gui-
mares, chief political adviser of Count
d'Eu, returned from Brussels to-day.
He declined TO say anything as to his
any direct news of Admiral Mello's
proclamation OF an emporer. He was
in high spirits and spoke with an air of
repressed glee. Count d'Eu and his
wife are still completely In the dark as
regards the events Of the last few DAYS
in Brazil.
Princess Isabella, who has burning
desire t. reign, was thrown into rage
by the announcement in this mornings
newspaper that Mello had proclaimed
her con omp eror. She declared that her
own rights had been ignored. She
tainted her husband with his apathy
and bullied and reproached him, while
he tried to calm her with the assertion
that the report of Mello's action was
false.
There is no longer any doubt that
much of Mello's money come from
monarchists in Paris. who have done
all in their power to aid him. Count
d'Eu and the Princess Isabella, how
ever, have been kept ignorant OF the
committee work. The. committee meets
at tho Grand Hotel. and the money
which they collect is delivered TO Senior
Ramos, who sends it to Mello.
LONDON, Nov. 1S.--A dispatch from
Loadon, received here to-day, says that
q messenger who has arrived there from
Brazil, announces that Senior jose Pat

been continually and strongly opposed
to President Peixoto, has been shot by
order OF the president. The messenger
ands that among the killed during the
recent fighting in Brazil was Col Pedro

commerce; the second charges con-
spiracy for the purpose of Withdrawing
coal from the market. The parties in.
dicted are prominent and wealthy coal
dealers who have entered into a con-
tract with certain coal miners, which
would give them monopoly of the local
trade. A great deal Of feeling has been
aroused over the matter and several
mass meetings making strong protests
have been held.

SAID GOD WOULD DEFEND THEM.
Members of n New Religious Order Prose
outed on Serious Charge

Members of n New Religious Order Prose-
cuted on a Serious Charge.
CHARLESTON, S. c., Nov. 17.-One of
the most remarkable cases on record
was tried in the criminal court here to-
day. Charles Singleton, David Fields,
Amelia Wright and Laura Perkins, all
negroes, were on trial and were con-
victed Of felonious assault, the first
named being convicted as principal and
the others as accessory.
The prisoners belong to religious
order called the Council of Six. Thew
entioed Nora McDuffy, q mulatto, into
the residence and there she was initiated
into the order. All the prisoners re-
fused the offer of the court to assign
counsel for their defense. They said
God would defend them.
The State put up Nora McDuffy, the
victim of the council, as its prime ipal
witness. She told her story, which was
borne out by other witnesses. The de-
fendants each testified, and their evi.
dence was Of very peculiar character.
Singleton, the actual assailant of the
girl, said that he was commanded to do
what he did, and referred the solicitor to
the sixth chapter of Corinthians as his
authority.
III lepiy W question oy MT. Jervey,
Singleton said: 1--WE can't DO anything
for Christ but what tho devil has a share
in it." He admitted the charge against
him, but said If the spirit commanded
him to take up gun and kill man, he
would do it. Fields testimony was
largely on the same line, and that of
the two women, who dressed in plain
black with poke bonnets, was theatrical,
and, at times, amusing. When the
large body of spectators laughed. how
over, one of the women said: STAND
still. This is no laughing matter. The
truth is going to shineoto-day.
The prisoners were convicted but
were recommended to mercy. They
we're remanded for sentence.
The Council OF Six is new religious
order established among the negroes
here and has quite membership.

THE PRICE OF WHEAT.

Mr.. EDIToR:-Will you please en-
Tighten me in regard to the price of
wheat, or refer the matter to some
politician who, I'm sure, would take
pleasure in doing so7 Last fall the
Democrats abused us q mean the poll
ticians of that parity for voting with
the Populists; said that would never
bring us relief, tut we must raise more
grain if we wished to drive out hard
times. Fortunately our wheat crop
this year is abo' e the average for sew
eral years, though I'm sure not enough
to meet the consumption of the coun-
try. What is the result9 Although
we have not threshed any of the new
crop it is off 25 per cent. from last
years price, and many say that the
decline will reach 40 per cent. by the
time the crop is threshed. That is, it
will be 60 cents per bushel. We SOW
our wheat principally by hand and
reap it almost entirely with the cradle.
Wheat drills in this county are scarce
and reaper and binder is almost an
unknown piece OF machinery with US.
do not know the average of the
county per acre, but am sure it is less
than eight bushels. Now count the
cost Of production, by manual labor,
of one acre and put the price even at
one dollar, the former price, and will
some mathematician tell us how long
it will take to run out hard times rails
ing grain9 Last fall 1 told my neigh
bOrs, privately and publicly, that the
quantity of our productions had moth
ing to do with the price; that the price
was fixed by higher pOaUer. They de
nounced me as fraud, calamity
howler, young rainbow chaser (as I'm
only a young man), etc. They said we
had brought on hard times by an over
production of tobacco. I've been ask
ing them if there is an overproduction
of wheat, and they see the point they
are speechless, they know there is not
enough wheat in the county to bread
the people.
Ny idea is that the surest way and
the only way to get rid of hard times
is to first get rid of the liars and scoun
drels and vote like patriots. If there
is any other would be glad to know it.

EDITORIAL SUGGESTIONS.

The great need of the hour is fewer
dogs and more calamity howlers. IT
you think there is need Of reform join
the ranks and help get it.
Milk can always be used to good ad-
vantage in feeding pigs or grown hogs.
If not given all the time an occasional
feed will prove highly beneficial.
Cotton is late and the weed is small
all over the South. It will not be cul
tivated much longer, but what it gets
should be given rapidly. Delays are
dangerous. Push it now and then it
will have more time to mature.
A new Alliance paper is to be started
at Florence, S. @. We are glad to see
every link possible added to the reform
chain. Reformers must remember that
there is no Doodle behind reform papers
and extend liberal support or they can't
be published.
The Chicago "bulls" have run up the
price of pork and bacon to a point
higher than it has been for long time.
This is another warning to Southern
farmers, and says plainly raise your
own meat" Prepare to do that and
you will never regret it.
The plutocrats want to repeal the
Sherman law, they say, to avoid issu-
ing more U. S. bonds. That is all
fraud. They want the bonds issued
and they are going to repeal the law
so the bonds can be issued. Let the
people stand unwaveringly against
this conspiracy and down the parties
that carry it through.
There were 334 business failures last
week many of them very large ones.
There has been 6, ,4O1 reported since the
hrst Of January, being 898 more than
tor the period last year. The liabilities
Ior the six months of this year are
$l68, 900, 900 nearly double the Iabili-
tles for the first six months of 1892.
This shows the way the wind is blow
ing. Are you going to join the reform
ranks, or do you prefer a continuance
OF this ruin9 You are on one side or
the other7 Which is it9 Do you wish
70 hold your property, continue your
business, keep your family in comfort
aole circumstances, or do you want
