The matter Of the city's water
supply has been a serious question,
which would have been settled
long ago, had it not been for the
defeat of the reform party in 1890
by the boodlers and the riffraff.
who are at present fighting for the
lost cause of the ex-queen. Since
the Provisional government came
into power, the official neglect of
duty, so prevalent under the fallen
monarchy, has become odious by
comparison. 1t became especially
50 when the due bills of Claus
Spreckels were promptly paid some
time ago, and Hawaii refused to be
reduced to bankruptcy at the nod
Of the chief Hawaiian boodler and
politician. As far as the friends of
the present government are aware,
the only men who are at present
disregarding their oaths of allegi-
ance and their official duties are
those royalists who have been re-
tanned in office on the weak
promise that they would support
the general welfare and political
interests of Hawaii, as outlined by
indignant citizens in last January,
when the ex-queen violated the
constitutional law of the islands.

that's different

The Bulletin declares that the
ball at the executive building was
not the success it is reported to be
and that it is not to be compared
with royalist demonstrations of the
same character in years under
the monarchy" Well ! Well that's
quite so; shall we relate some of
the doings of the participants in
the balls given under the mon
archy? Well, no; perhaps the
veil had better be drawn for fear of
injuring the feelings of "small
coterie" who "are not leaders in
this community" at present.

The royalists are at present in
dulging in repetition of figures
relating to the proportion of Amer
leans in Hawaii, which are quite
likely to kick backward, as most
royalist figures do. We call
attention to the fact that the
item Hawaiian born foreign
ers" includes about two-thirds
Americans, who, if added to the al
legged American contingent of 1923,
will make quite a respectable show
ing both in present politics and fu-
ture taxes. Mr.. Marques is poor
politician, and as a diplomat will
scarcely cast a shadow.

TIE BALL.

The ball last week, given by the
citizens Of Honolulu, was, as was
expected, a great success. This
was prophesied because royalists
had denounced it, prayed against
It and stayed away from it, and
hence it was necessarily doomed
to be the success it was. Never
before in Hawaii have the decent,
respectable people of the ISL
ands been so thoroughly repre-
sented on semi-state occa-
sion as they were last week at
the ball given the officers of the
Boston. The farewell reception
rendered the Boston was not in
tended to have any political signif-
cance-it had not, until the royal
lists, who were invited without re-
gard TO party lines, stayed away.
This gave the entertainment oflast
week 4 political significance which
admits of but one Interpretation,
viz, that the royalists and their
influence are no longer necessary
TO the well being and prosperity of
popular institutions in Hawaii,
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1893-10-03

The Boston left the harbor last
Tuesday afternoon, after a stay of
thirteen months and two days in
this harbor. She was welcomed
here as the third of the white squad
ron, and, with the Charleston and
San Francisco, has made a name
in Hawaiian history. While the
Boston has in no way violated the
courtesies of international law, as
alleged by the royalists of Hawaii.
she has at the same time
been prompt and efficient
in protecting American life and
property here. In SO doing both
her officers and crew have incurred
the ill-will of the monarchy and its
supporters, and consequently the
Boston carries away with her the
ill-will of all those who oppose
American interests in Hawaii.

A CLEVER sw1NDLBR.

The sole topic of conversation on
the streets Wednesday was the dis
appearance of person known as
Joseph Frank Won Berg. This in
dividual with the high sounding
title came here some three months
ago from Australia. He was ae-
companied by a woman and child.
Shortly after arriving the couple
domiciled themselves in a
cottage on Beretania street,
which was rented from Mr.. Hoting.
In order that they might exist
in the atmosphere of luxury of
which they claimed they had
formerly been used to they pro-
ceeded to c. E. Williams furniture
store where quite an amount of high
class furniture was secured on
monthly rental. Among other
things secured from this firm was
piano. Ordway & Porter was
next visited, where another lot of
furniture was procured, on a writ
ten lease after outright credit
had been refused. Between
the two furniture stores the
couple managed to fit up their
dwelling in a luxurious manner.
After furnishing the house, Mr..
Won Berg started out to do the
town up, and from all reports he
did so in good style.
Being somewhat of an invalid in
appearance his first move was to
hire a horse and team from the
Pantheon stables. He used this
for some time and paid a small
amount on account. 1t would re-
quire several columns of space to
describe the manner and move
ments of this gay gentleman dur
ing his short sojourn in Honolulu.
1t can be said of him that he made
no distinction in the premises, de-
frauding every one alike. He
would 60 into one store and pur-
chase a lot of goods and pay cash
for them. During the next few
days he would come into the same
store and want to negotiate note
for sums ranging as high as
$4,000. Messrs. Lewis & Co, re-
fused such a request. As far as
can be ascertained Won Berg de-
frauded the merchants of Homo
lulu out of some $500 worth of
goods, and one business establish
ment is said to have cashed a note
for the affable German.
Two or three days ago Mrs. Won
Berg went to the custom house and
procured a passport for Mr.. and
Mrs. Howard. She stated that her
husband was an invalid and could
not come himself. The same story
was told at Hackfeld's, where she
purchased two tickets for San Fran
cisco. The couple and child sailed
BY the Oceanic on Tuesday, and
are now far out of reach of the vic.
Honolulu merchants.
Won Berg is described as tall,
slim person, with an emaciated APP
DeaTance. He is said to have been
l victim of the morphine habit, |
using the drug hypodermically.
The people of Honolulu have
suffered severely during the past
several years through extending ia
Tors to strangers, and this is but an
,ther result of their accommodating
node of doing business.

Our friends the royalists, we
love to call them so because it
makes them kick, were quite GER
tain when the last steamer arrived
from the coast, that a vote on an
nexation would be ordered at once
from Washington. This was al

Herald said so. Last week
our confident friends, the royalists,
through their organ the Bulletin,

on newspaper kilograms may be a

The position of the Provisional
governmental the present situation
should be not to hide its light IN
der a bushel. There is but one
position for it to take, and that is
to uphold the political principles
set forth in the proclamation of
last January. The taxpayers and
annexationists of Hawaii, who
represent the wealth and intelli-
gence" of the islands, are firmly
united upon the proposition to bet
ter the condition of the country
both financially and politically,
and there is not a doubt this re-
solve will be carried out, if it takes
all summer, as proverbial Ameri-
can saying says.

SUDDEN DEATH!
The community Shocked.

~, Last evening, just after tea, while MI.
Thomas Hartman, prominent and highly.
respected citizen, apparently in the best Of
nealtn ana spirits, was reading a newspaper.
the sheet suddenly fell to the floor; he
placed one hand over his heart, gasped, and
sank back in his chair, evidently uncon-
sclouS. The family were stricken with con.
sternation, and Immediately summoned
physician. But il was too late. The old
gentleman was dead. Physicians gave heart
disease as the cause. '-HOl6rook Herald.
Every day the papers contain statements
similar to the above. Even youth is no de-
tense against heart disease, and the awful
rapidity with which it is claiming victims
forces upon all conviction of It's prevalence.
Reader, If you have a symptom Of this
dread disease do not hesitate moment in
attending to it. Delay is always dangerous,
and In heart disease too often fatal. Some
symptoms of heart disease are shortness of
breath, futtering, or palpitation, pain or
tenderness in left side, shoulder, or arm, ir-
regular. pulse, smothering, weak or hungry
spells, tainting spells, dropsy, etc.
