A bounty paid by the United
States is an outrage on the people
at large as we'll as palpable viola
ton of the constitution. Prior to
the war, the democratic party waged
unrelenting war against the bounties
paid to the catcters Of cod and
mackerel, on the ground of their
being unconstitutional, partial and
unjust, bit III 1898 many Texas
democrats Of pretentious political
orthodoxy blame Governor Hogg
for not conserving to the act to
allow Texas to accept the sugar
bounty from the United States.
The sugar bounty is fiicled from
the people, and Texas would be-
come the receiver Of stolen goods,
knowing they had been stolen, in
case she should accept the sugar
bounty. Texas cannot so far de.
mean her statehood and her sover.

bounty. The dignity of the state

The maintenance of the unity of

The maintenance of the unity of
the democratic party Of Texas is
not only the aim Of all true hearted
democrats in the state, but it is of
paramount importance to the wei.
fare and prosperity of the white
population. 1t will be an evil day
for Texas when the state passes into
the hands Of Ken elected by a
coalition of disgruntled democrats,
greedy monopolists and the black
cohorts Of Quincy. No white man
wishes to behold the triumph of
such a mongrelized faction. The
preservation of white supremacy
depends upon firmly maintaining
democratic unity, and TIE News
desires to indelibly impress this
truth upon all who claim to be
democrats. The ma ority of the
democrats who voted for Clark in
1892 are too patriotic to set to work
deliberately to destroy their party
by calling in the republicans to aid
them in accomplishing such an I'M
holy work. There is no ground at
all for a division in the democratic
party. 1t is the duty of democrats
to stand by the flag of their party
and to dscountenance and thwart
every attempt to bring about
split in the democratic party. The
democrats who supported Clark
have no doubt "seen the error of
their way" and will in future rally
around the flag of their party,
We don't want any Tilghman and

want stralghtout democracy and

THOROUGH MEASURES.

The mass meeting at the Arm
DRY shows that the whole body OF
foreign residents is prepared and
determined to resist royalist ag-
gression. The Committee Of Public
Safety has been entrusted with the
devising of such means as may be
necessary to carry out the will of
this meeting. No measures will
satisfy the foreign community
which are not thorough.
The landing of troops from the

the persons and property of Amer
lean citizens will be safe from vio-
lence, and it has spread feeling
of security generally among prop
erty holders throughout the COM

THE MEANING OF IT d?

What is the meaning of the
Queens course in violating the
Constitution? Is it true that the
Sovereign in a free country is
above the law?
The answer to this question is
No. It is absurd not merely as a
proposition of morals, but of law,
to pretend that an individual who
derives all his authority from the
law, can be above that law; no one
can be, and the Queen is not.
Queen Liliuokalani, in violating
her oath to support the Constitu-
ton from which she derives her
authority, vacated her seat and
absolved her subjects from their
allegiance. The Thrones in reality
vacant, and the proclamation by
which the Queen confesses and re-
cants is nothing but the plea in
extenuation of the culprit at the
bar, is pitiful attempt to recover
the power to which all legal as well
as moral right has been forfeited.
Such is the meaning of the revo-
lutonary. course of the Queen. The
meaning of the Inass-meeting, if
We have gagged its sense Alright, is
that the foreign community is
weary Of aboriginal dynasty It is
weary Of having its rights made
the football of individual license
and Palace intrigue. 1t demands,
with one voice, something better.

lawful methods. This document
was ignored at the mass meeting,
as not being of the least account.
Thirty-six hours elapsed between
Saturday and Monday morning,
and this was time enough for some
one to inform the Queen that when
one intends to violate the laws, it
is not customary to announce the
intention beforehand. Acting upon
this suggestion, the Queen with
drew the expressions of intention
which she had twice made on Sat-
urday last. This is the whole
meaning of the manifesto.
A man would be a very child
who could attach any weight to
this manifesto, or imagine that
there is any truth or any sincerity
in it. Her Majesty has taken
solemn oath to support the Con-
stitution which she deliberately
violates and disregards. Her true
intent on this subject is expressed
by her hours of stubborn resistance
on Saturday, by her speeches, her
promises and her threats. We
judge by deeds, not words alone,
and the deeds of Saturday are the
facts in this case which cannot be
set aside. The simple truth of
the matter is that the Queen has
been convinced that the present is
not an opportune time for carrying
her revolution through, and so she
has decided to postpone it until |
later.
The foregoing facts prove that
The real, not the pretended attitude
If Queen Liliuokalani is no whit
ess revolutionary and subversive
If law and the rights of the citizen
han it was last Saturday. We
lave as little guarantee now as
hen that she intends in good faith
o uphold the law of the land. In |
his state of affairs everything de-
ENDS upon the determination and
ourage of the great mass of the
'reign population. If they stand
, their rights they will keep them.
they fail to do so a new Consti-
ltion will be promulgated within
few weeks or months, and their
gifts will be gone. Which shall
be?

THE REVOLUTION.
(Reprinted.)

lheprlDIeQ.
Saturday afternoon, directly af,
ter the propagation of the Legisla-
tive Assembly, Her Majesty Queen
Liliuokalani, without authority or
color of law, attempted to over
throw the Constitution of the Ha-
waiian Kingdom, and 10 substitute
an instrument of her own devising
in its place. The action Of the
Queen in this matter was illegal
and revolutionary, and if the at
tempt which she has made had
been made by a private citizen, he
would have been a rebel and rev.
olutionist. The obligation of the
Sovereign to obey the laws is the
same as that of the meanest sub
ject, and acts which would be re-
bellious and revolutionary in him
are no less rebelious and revolu-
tionary in her. High station does
not condone transgression against
the laws. Wealth and rank are not
justification of wrong-doing, and
the action of Her Majesty must be
viewed exactly as that of anyone
else would be-with one difference.
With one difference. The Queen
is one of the guardians of the law.
She has taken q solemn oath to
support the Constitution. She is
at the head of the State, and when
she defes it she not merely is
guilty of an overt act of treason,
but she violates her oath, and is
to a solemn obligation.

WHEN WILL The COUP D'ErAT BE !?

Reprinted
The country was in state Of
revolution last Saturday afternoon.
It is in state of revolution still.
The Queen has not abandoned her
intention to abrogate the Constitu-
ton. She has only deferred it.
Her last words, uttered to the
Cabinet, the Judges of the Supreme
Court, to members of the Court and
of the Legislature, expressed her
deliberate viii to override in a
few days" the law which secures
the rights and guarantees the lib
critics of all of US. To the people
assembled before the Palace she
complained of the perfdy of her
Ministers and told them that she
would give them the Constitution
she had promised, at the earliest
opportunity. How long is "a few
days?" When will "the earliest

THE MEETING AT PALACE SQUARE

A meeting was held at Palace
Square Monday afternoon, at
which about a thousand natives
were present. Antoine Rosa, Hons.
R. W. Wilcox, Bush, Nawahi and
others made speeches. The tone of
the remarks was in general moder-
ate, and the speakers had evidently
been very carefully coached" A
resolution was adopted, accepting
the assurance by the Queen that
she would not promulgate a new
Constitution. In view of the fact
that those present were supposed to
desire the PRONUNCIATION of a new
Constitution, and that they de-
clared in the same meeting THEIR
OF THE QUEENS COURSE,
the adoption of this resolution
must appear one of the broadcast
pieces of burlesque ever heard of
even in Hawaiia mel. The fact
that the Queens proclamation lays
all the blame for her course on her
faithful subjects gives an added
element of humor to the situation. |
The demonstration was of course
l humbug from beginning to end,
gotten up with the idea of neutral
zing the genuine expression of
public opinion at the Armory. 1t

Saturday morning the statement
was made that the country was in
a condition of suppressed revolu-
ton. Saturday afternoon the revo-
luton was open and undisguised.
The legal aspect of the situation is
not affected by the fact that the
attempt to overthrow the Constitu-
ton failed. The attempt was
there. Unlawful demands were
made upon the Ministers, and
these demands were supported by
threats. The troops were drawn
up with their belts stuck full of
cartridges, TO intimidate the Cabi-
net, and Unnecessary to suppress any
resistance which might be made
after the new Constitution was pro-
mulgated. The use of troops for
such a purpose Is an overt act of
treason, or at any rate part of an
attempt to commit treason. The
fact that the act was not consum-
mated does not lessen its guilt.
The intention to commit treason
was present on Saturday, and ex-
pressed itself in series of overt
acts. The intention has not been
abandoned, but its execution mo-
mentarily deferred

THE WILL OF THE PBOPLB.

The mass meeting held Mon
day at the Rifles Armory was one
of the most unanimous as well as
one of the most enthusiastic ex-
pressions of popular sentiment
which has ever come from the. for
eign community in this city. The
determination to resist the aggres-
sions of the Queen was universal,
as well as the belief that temporiz-
ing measures would be of no avail.

IN UNION Is STRENGTH.
(Reprinted.}

lReprinted.)
The strength of the movement
which was initiated BY the citizens
last Saturday is Its perfect una
nimity. None rallied around the
Ministers more enthusiastically
than those who g few hours before
had been their bitterest op-
ponents. The question agitating
this community to-day Is not
one of party. It unites those
who favor the lottery and
those who oppose it, those who
favor the Opium bill and those who
oppose, the foes of the Cabinet and
its friends. The mass meeting
which is called to-day is not Re-
form or National Reform or Lib
eral, but it is for all who value
their rights as freemen, and who
viii not consent to see those rights
abridged. Let nothing divide the
community thus united. Its
is in Its union. To
bury factional differences and par
tizan feeling, to let the common
cause unite all in the unity of
common aim, is the duty of every
honest man. Division means fail
ure. Union viii bring success.

TIE ROYAL MANIFESTO.

Monday morning a paper was
circulated through the streets,
signed by the Queen and the Min
listers, declaring that the former
had abandoned her intention to
secure new Constitution by revo-
lutionary means, and that she
would eonfne herself in future to

archy, pure and simple. No on,
can know when the intended, tn,
openly promised coup will TAX
place. The blow may fall at an!
day or hour. It is simply ques
ton of force.
What, then, is the duty of cit
zens in a situation like this? L
would be the madness of utter folly
to imagine that the crisis had
passed. 1t is here and now. The
party of revolution is holding con
slant consultations. 1t at
tempted Saturday to overthrow
the law; it plotted to do SO
yesterday, and it will conspire
again to-day. In such an emer-
gency the course marked out for
every law abiding citizen, for every
man who "knows his rights and
knowing dares maintain" is per-
fectly clear. He must resist aggres-
sion, passively if he may, actively
if he must. All rights, in the last
analysis, rest upon force, and those
who are not determined to uphold
them at all events, are at the mercy
of every usurper. Rights are not
rights, which people are not ready
to fight for, and if we hold ours at
so cheap a purchase that we are
willing to risk nothing for their
preservation, we deserve to lose
them and will.
This day is critical one for Ha-
waii. A mass meeting has been
called at the Rifles Armory, and
If should be attended by every citi-
zen of whatever blood or belief,
who wishes to uphold his rights as
a freeman. We are not counselling
to any deeds of lawlessness or vio-
lence. This meeting is called to
maintain the laws, not to set them
1t defiance, and its purposes are
and lawful. Those who
'esist aggression by every means
which may be necessary, are not
'reakers but upholders of the law,
nd are discharging duty which
-evolves upon every good citizen.
In the case at issue, we have
very reason for resisting revolu-
ion which a man can have. The
Material prosperity of the islands,
he stability of its government, the
ecurity of life and property under
S laws, the maintenance of its
redit at home and abroad, are
Il jeopardized by this rebellion

Yesterday was an eventful day
in this city. At early morning
groups of men could be seen about
the streets talking over the present
critical situation.
About eleven o'clock the follow
ing notice was handed about but il
was not received with favor as it
was considered but a ruse on the
part of the revolutionists:
BY AUTHORITY.
Her Majesty's Ministers desire to ex-
press their appreciation for the quiet
and order which has prevailed in this
community since the events of Saturday,
and are authorized to say that the posi-
ton taken by Her Majesty in regard to
the PRONUNCIATION OF new Constitution,
was under stress of Her native subjects
Authority is given for the assurance
that any changes desired in the funda-
mental law Of the land will be sought
only by methods provided in the Consti-

Her Majesty's Ministers request all
citizens to accept the assurance OF Her
Majesty in the same spirit in which it is
given.

In the afternoon all of the prin-

allow the owners and their clerks
to attend the mass meeting at the
Armory. A full report of the en-
thusiastic meeting appears else
where in this issue.
After the meeting adjourned
many people returned to Fort |
street, and stood around as if they |
expected some new developments,
and they were rewarded when one
OF the most important events of the !
day happened.
About 5 o'clock in the afternoon, |
the Z. S. S. Boston landed about |
three hundred men. Each man |
had two belts of cartridges around !
his waist and was armed with a
rife. The men marched up to the
office of the Consul-General of the
United States, where halt was
made.

sent to the American Legation on

moved to the grounds of Mr.. J. B.

where they camped over night.
