We are not needed for the pur-
pose OF fighting Mr. Nsumann' 5
battles, and We should have
taken no notice of the alleged
arguments adv need by an anony-
nous Ounce in the Advertiser, who
subscribes himself Annexationist,
if it wasn't that the writer makes
such an exhibition Of ignorance
Of the history of the United
States, as TO induce US to give
him a lesson.
Hawaii holomua = Progress. [volume] (Honolulu) 1893-1895, 1893-09-22

This .Annexationist' from Ha-
waii-who has a very Hornery
havor-attempts to present reasons
why the United States should
annex these Islands, even against
the viii of the people. His or
more, probably her attempt to
defend the cause of the annexa-
tionists is extremely futile. An
nexationist' evidently considers
Hawaii conquered nation-con-
quered by the the forces of the
United States, and BOW belong
ing to the men who conspired
against the Queen. and to their
accessories before the fact. He
shows number of instances
where the United States have
annexed territories without the
people of such territories being
consulted, and that is, where he
makes an ass of himself.

We cannot possibly understand
how Admiral Skerrest can slow
the officers of the Boston T. n to
she BAH to be given at the Palace
The refusal en- nsasss of the B ston

two affairs necessarily political
aspect. sud we are Of the impress
sion that even the America navy
desires its officers to be free from
the slightest tinge or appearlnca
of interference in the internal
affairs of the countries in which
they are stationed. Holding Them
selves aloof from the ball az the
Hotel given. by the way. by the
must pronounced annexstiooists
was an outrageous insult to the
Admiral, who attended the ball.
In any other navy such a stub to
the commandments, would
have been attended to. in such
manner, as would not easily
be forgotten. The acceptance Of the
invitation to the ball at the Palace
emphasizes the insult tn the ladies
who gave the Hotel ball, aud to
the Admiral who honored that
ball with his presence and shows
the Boston officers in very IN
enviable light if they care to be
considered gentlemen and con-
peers of their European colleagues.

The Advertiser is not a very
correct paper, although, it always
boasts of its original and fresh
news. This morning it states
that the Waimanalc Plantation
is property lately acquired by
Irwin & Co." The Waimanalo
Plantation belongs to the Wal
manalo Sugar Company and we
don't believe that Irwin & Co.
have a single share in that
concern. The firm referred to are

his vulgar abuses OF Mr.. Neu-
mann. Texas was joined into

General Houston. who previous
ly was governor of Tennessee.
There VS. no annexation
against the will of the people. al
though, Mexico disapproyed it be-
lieving that she had a kuleana
in Texas, and the comparison
drawn by our Horned friend
fron Hawaii, IS to say the least
extremely lame. Mississippi to
which he next refers was never
a territory. but WIS simply a
part of Louisiana. When Loui-
siaua Was transferred from
France to the United States
Government, nobody was depriv-
ed OF franchise already enjoyed
or exercised. The French gov
eminent owned Louisiana
through conquest. and had per-
feet right to do with it, what it
pleased, but that is hardly
the case in regard to the p. G..
