THE POOR.

Sweet Angel of Mercy descend
From the sphere of celestial abode,
The poor they are wanting friend,
Descend on thy heavenly road;
Bring with you the best gift to man,
A heart rich with charity's grace,
That will do whatever it can
In aiding the whole human race.
The wind through the narrow street sweeps
In cellars its whistle is heard,
Up tenement stairs it fiereely leaps,
Its music is sad and IS fear'd;
The child in its tatters awakes,
The mother stands grim with alright.
The father with chillness shakes.
As fades the last lustre of light
The night with its aspect of gloom
Appears at the window or door,
And soon he inyades the cold room
And moeks at the ills of the poor:
They shiver and shake in distress,
And wrap themselves up in the rags,
Not having a shoe or dress,
As beggars can't walk on the flags.
The miser sleeps in his chair,
The merchant is counting his gains,
Rich ladies have gone to the fair,
The poor they are aching with pains
In the halls of the great are array'd
Stout servants in tinsel and gold,
The dinner in silver is laid
But not for the poor and the old.
The snow flakes are gathering fast,
On cottage. on steeple, and mast
In furs the gay sleighers drive past,
Unheeding the poor and the blast
The children are calling for bread,
The parents are dying or weak,
oh, charity, where is thy tread.
Thy form, all so gentle and meek?
IfChristians there be in this land.
Advance to the rescue, nor halt,
Extend to the poor kind hand,
For poverty's not their own fault;
Give of your full store small part,
To the orphan, the father, and wife,
oh give, and ennoble your heart,
Their prayers will attend you through life.

Despite the decrease, there will be
be enough sugar to go around, so
the deficiency will have little effect
on the price.
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1893-08-29

this matter is in harmony
with the United States policy to be
pursued toward Hawaii, pending
the adjustment of the questions
now at issue, and that the policy
outlined is one which will brook
neither foreign interference nor in
ternal strife until a conclusion is
reached.
There appears to be little doubt
in the minds of those who have
watched most closely the develop
ment of events here for the past
three months that the outcome ofthe
present unsettled state of affairs
will be satisfactory to taxpayers,
and will result in the establish
ment of some stable form of gov
eminent which will amply protect
the rights of the American colony
and the great interests of the
United States in Hawaii.
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1893-08-29

suit. In the meantime the local
newspaper editor is seemingly at
the mercy of any Dick, Tom or
Harry who sees fit to set the legal
machinery of the government in
motion, to be paid for at heavy
public expense and at no little in
convenience to the arrested citizen.
Another fact which must not be
lost sight of is that while in civil
libel cases dispositions of wit
nesses can be taken for
coming trial, in criminal
actions such witnesses must be
held to testify. This fact adds in
Justice to inconvenience in many
cases. 1t is high time some mod
ern and more convenient and just
law of libel should be adopted in
Hawaii that will prevent the indis-
criminate use of criminal libel and
remove at the same time the politi-
cal and official temptation which
has too often degraded the majesty
of the law without meeting the ends
of justice

THE SITUATION.

The attempts of the royalists to
misrepresent the strength of the
Provisional government abroad has
signally failed. Every mail from
the United States brings fresh evil
dence that the Hawaiian situation
is thoroughly understood in United
States official circles. The royalists
are at last feeling, although they
may not admit it, that there is lit
tie use in kicking further against
the inevitable destiny of the coun-
try. Hawaii has outgrown the old
monarchical form of government,
and since last January restoration
has become an impossibility
through the force and logic of
events. The fight between the old
and the new is virtually over in
these islands, and the din of that
conflict has been succeeded by the
disappointed cries and protests of
the minority.
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1893-08-29
here to allow any chance for an
outbreak pending the settlement of
American control in Hawaii.

The prompt action of Admiral
Skerrett in the premises does not
in any way reflect upon the strength
and preparation of the Provisional
government nor its ability to take
care of itself. This fact is admit
ted on all hands; had it been 9TH
erwise the royalists would have
made Roadway against the new re-
gime long ago. The persons COM
posing the present government are
beyond reproach and are thorough
ly representative of the material
interests and best elements of the
country. On the other hand the
opposition to the government has
lately been conducted on side is
sues and local lines, which cannot
possibly cut figure in the future
political condition of the country.
In spite of the criticisms INDUCED
in by royalist newspapers, the gov
eminent has retained public conf
dence and is carrying out new
public works on a safe and econom-
ical plan, which will be extended
in the near future.
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1893-08-29

The Bulletin has at last produced
something absolutely unique and
altogether original. Its editor is
the first person in the Hawaiian
islands, or out of them, to whom
it ever occurred to accuse Sanford
B. Dole of cowardice. A theory
which has to be defended by resort
ing to such a proposition as this
needs no further refutation.
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1893-08-29

The present law of criminal libel
has long been unpopular here for
the reason it has been abused.
Within the past dozen years the
civil suits for libel can be counted
upon the fingers of one hand. On
the contrary the suits for criminal
libel have reached a very large
percentage. The fact that pri-
vate individual can upon the
merest pretext use the Hawaiian
government as plaintiff in a Grim
inal libel suit has brought the law,
as it stands, into just disrepute.
Within the past ten or twelve
years especially the criminal ar
rests and suits for libel have par
taken largely of a private and poll
teal nature. Lately the law has
been so amended as to leave the
choice of prosecuting such
suits to the discretion of the gov
eminent, and, as soon as the new
law is in working order, it is be-
lieved more civil suits for libel and
less criminal prosecutions will re-

the minority

The claim that the new regime
was not a movement backed by the
native people has been losing it's
force for some time, and there is
no doubt that the PROFESSIONALS the
popular government of the islands
today. The only present need for
a show of force is to keep the for
eign anti-American leaders, who
still retain a street following Of ma
tives in Honolulu alone, from agi-
tation and riot, which would result
in speedy suppression after the
probable destruction of some prop
erty and more or less life. 1t is a
well known fact that today the ma
tives of the islands are supine re-
garding the outcome of the annex
alton movement, and are ready
and willing to fall into line and
support the movement which is
already bringing the country finan-
cial success and the promise of
future prosperity.
