CONSUL APPOINTED.

While the councils were in ex-
ecutive session Monday, June 9Th,
Charles T. Wilder received the
appointment of consul-general at
San Francisco in place of F. S.
Pratt. One other name was men
toned for the place-that of J. w.
Girvin, the present consul at San
Diego. Mr.. Wilder expects to de-
part for San Francisco on the next
Australia to take up the duties of
his office.
Mr.. Wilder was mentioned for
the place over two months ago.
His friends circulated a petition
recommending him for the position.
At this time it was understood that
he was to receive the appointment,
but the advent Of Colonel Claus
Spreekels changed the complexion
of things. Mr.. Spreckels wanted
Pratt retained in office, and he so
signified his intention to the execu-
tive through Mr.. Irwin. The gov
eminent, so it is said, did not want
to anger Mr.. Spreckels, fearing that
if they did he would make a de-
mand for his $4,000 before it was
ready to turn over to him, so no
change was made in the office at
that time. The money has since
been paid to Mr.. Spreckels and
the government fastened to make
the greatly needed change, Mr..
Spreckels to the contrary notwith-
standing. If all the articles which
have appeared in the San Francisco
papers regarding Mr.. Pratt are true
he should have been removed
ago.

A FORECAST.
Prophetic Words Written Over
Thirty Years Ago.

A student in Oahu college wrote,
in an essay more than thirty years
ago, the following prophetic words,
especially significant when put side
by side with the recently published
letter of Minister Stevens.
'The tendency to a reaction to-
wards heathenism constantly dis
plays itself. We see it
particularly in the revival of hea-
thenigh practices such as making
offerings to Pele; We hear it in the
monotonous sound of the hula
drum we read it in the accounts
of murders and nameless crimes.
"0ne circumstance is worthy of
attention, viz: That all these evils
have been in some way counten-
anced in their origin by those in
high rank. This is eminentIy the
case with the hula, with all its at
tendant evils, and so also with the
crime of murder. [Alluding no
doubt to a certain shooting ARRAY
in which the king was principal
actor
"HaWaiians still look, as was
their old habit, to their rulers as
examples. The destiny. then, of
the nation depends in a great mea-
sure on them. If they live
correct lives there may be some
hope for the nation, but if by
their example they open the
food gates of licentiousnesa and
crime, Of heathenism and idolatry,
the doom of Hawaii is sealed. The
people are fast dwindling away.
> The best that can be hoped for |
them now il that their doom be not |
fastened by a relapse into idol
otry."

La GRIPPE.
The Disease is Epidemic in Hama
District.

DR.. T. Allen has written to the
board of health that there is an
epidemic prevalent in that district
which shows all the symptoms of
La Grippe. The doctor says the
illness lasts but a few days and
yields readily to treatment. 1t is
not confined to any particular race
or nationality but attacks alike
natives, japanese, Chinese, Amer
leans and Europeans.
At least 200 persons have been
treated by DR.. Allen during the
past two weeks and the disease is
by no means abating.
The matter received extensive
discussion at the meeting of the
board Wednesday and the question
of sending an extra physician to
Hama was suggested in case the
epidemic continued.

WY he ENDORSES MR. sPRECK,
Text of the Letter NOT Sent To
Blounf.
ELS SCHEME

In communication to the New
York Sun, republished in the Star OF
Saturday last, entitled, "Spreckels on
Politics" statement is made to the
effect that certain letter read at a
meeting of the Planters labor and
Supply Co. was drafted by Mr.. Paul
Neumann and myself, and that upon
the letter being rejected by the meet
ing request was made that it should
not be spread upon the minutes, and
pledges were secured from every
member present that the letter should
not be made public.
In justice to Col. Spreekels and
myself 1 beg to state the following
facts regarding the letter in question.
Shortly after Col. Spreckels' arrival
here he invited Mr.. II. P. Baldwin
and myself to his house to discuss
the question of annexation as bear
ing on plantation interests. The
letter referred to was written by me
at that interview as expressing Col.
Spreckels' and my own views on the
matter, and was to a great extent en-
dorsed by Mr.. Baldwin. The letter
was read at meeting of the P. L. &
S. Co., and although approved of by
a majority of those present it was
deemed best not to forward it to Mr..
Blount unless the approval was I'M
animous. 1t was suggested to spread
the letter on the minutes, to which
motion l, acting for Col. Spreckels,
who was not present at the meeting,
readily gave my consent. No pledges
we're asked from members to keep
the letter secret, neither was there
any reason to make it public, the
sense of the meeting not being taken
On that point
In conclusion would say that I
fully agree with Col. Spreckels in his
opinion that annexation pure and
simple, without any regard to our
present labor system, on which the
existence of our sugar industry de-
1ends, or protection of the civil
tights of Hawaiisns against the host
If political intriguers who would no
loubt invade our shores as soon as
he treaty was passed, would prove a
disaster instead of boon to these
stands. WM. G. IRWIN.
