The unexpected still continues to happen:
and this time the happening is so extraord-
mary that 1t demands attention. In The
Star of Tuesday there appeared information
to the effect that Gen. Grant, assistant
secretary Of war. had declined to grant to
National Guardsmen employed In the War
Department leave OF absence with pay for
the one day on which those men paraded
for rife practice although the law declares
that department employees ordered out for
duty shall not lose the time. 1t Is under
stood that the assistant secretary would
have conceded with the statute had the
day in question been used by the National
Guard-arrayed in its best-for the purposes
of q street parade, which, from the military
standpoint, is worse than useless cere-
money. but as the day was devoted to prac-
teal instruction in the use of the rifle
necessary and commendable work-he will
do his utmost to nullify the law. Surely
the assistant secretary of war must be
aware OF the fact that annual parades have
long since followed the old-time training
days and are never even dreamed Of IN
communities where the national guard Is
alive and as assistant secretary OF war he
must know that the word parade does not
necessarily means a great public show. 1t
Is the belief OF a great many people who
have never achieved distinction in the War
Department that commanding officer may
parade his troops for any one Of half a
dozen practical purposes and 1t may be CT
interest to officials generally to know that
the Attorney General so decided more than
a year ago. Whether that decision can or
cannot be upset by an opinion from the
assistant secretary of war remains to be
seen. and in the meantime wideawake and
active soldiers will be at liberty to indulge
in amazement at the attitude of an assist
ant secretary of war who seems willing to
encourage ancient and useless display and
anxious to discourage soldierly education.

Not unnaturally there Is considerable In
terest In and speculation as to the report
which United States Minister Biount has
made on the diplomatic situation In which
this country and Hawaii are most immedi-
ateiy concerned. The document Is said to
De overdue. but It Is quite possible that It
arrived day or two since and Is now
slowed away with other state papers of i'm
portance in Secretary Gresham's big safe
The trend Of the Recommendations Minister
Biount Is supposed to have made cannot
even be guessed at, for at neither end of
the line has there been q Leakage but the
Knowing ones who are politically and per-
sonally In sympathy with the Georgian are
inclined to believe that his hauling down the
Stars and Stripes was an unmistakable in
dfcation OF anti-annexation opinions. Sup
porting this view at every point Is evidence
much more recent than the nag incident.
AL the minister's associations while on the
islands were royalistic. He was Of course,
on diplomatic terms with the provisional
government. but his every public act was
adverse to their interests and brought 10Y
TO the hearts and smiles to the countenances
or those whose hopes Of Ill gotten wealth
were paralyzed when the dummy monarchy
set I'D by the gamblers was overthrown
More conclusive. perhaps. than any other
testimony was the answering anti-Amer-
icdn, pro-iottery ana pro-opfum ring corre-
spondence Of Charles Nordhofr, who was
sent to Hawaii by the New York Herald
with the idea that the Herald could make
impossible any league between the two
countries. Mr.. Nordhoff seems to have en-
1oyed Minister Blount's confidence to an ex-
traordinary extent. and that he awaited
himself of the advantage was evident to
those who read his eulogies Of Lihaok land
and her courtiers. 1t may be that lMipister
Biounts actions were as a whole merely a
diplomatic cloak. as it were. and that HIS
report vii present many surprisingly lib
eral features. but the prophet who would
make such a forecast could not expect
much honor either In his own or in any
other country. But. no matter what Min
lister Blount has to say. the supremacy Of
American interests In Hawaii must be pre-
served-a conclusion that can probably be
reached by the establishment of a republic
TO be protected. so far as IL needs protec-
tion. by the United States. Under no cir
cumstances should the dummy monarchy of
the gamblers and missionary haters be re-
established, while to prevent European or
Asiatic control the whole power of this gov
eminent should, IL necessary, be freely ex-
ercised- Out-and-out annexation Is prob
ably not desirable, but in some shape the
United States should have the power to
protect American interests In a country
that owes all II has in the way of civiliza-
ton and prosperity to Americans.
