TIE EX-QUEEN'S ACT.

Liliuokaiani and Hon. Paul Neu-
mann builded better than they
knew for the cause of good govern
ment in Hawaii, when they con-
spired to state the facts to the
United States Government in the
hope of reaping a golden harvest
for the benefit of the ex-royal fam
lily. The document in question,
published elsewhere, is the only
statement of facts made from the
royalist side that will hold water.
At the end of two weeks after
the seventeenth of last January the
ex-queen hastened to ask the Uni
ted States to recompense her with
gold coin for the claim she had
already released upon the throne
Of Hawaii. Her acknowledgment
of that release is couched in the
following words in the power of
attorney itself: On the seven
teenth day of January, A. D. 1898,
at the city of Honolulu, aforesaid,
did yield to the Provisional gov
eminent of the Hawaiian Islands
my authority as sovereign of the
Hawaiian Islands, under protest"
This document places the ex-
queen in a pitiable position before
the native people and the royalists
in an absurd one before the general
public. Since the arrival of Min
lister Blount, the royalists have re-
peatedly insisted that the ex-queen
yielded "to the superior force of the
United States of America" This
plea has now been completely
knocked from under the royalist
cause by her legally acknowledged
unconditional surrender to the Pro-
visional government.
Before her former native subjects
she stands in a pitiable attitude,
not only as the foolhardy destroyer
of the monarchy, but as a mercen-
airy ex-ruler, willing and anxious
to sell out any hope of a restor-
alton which her native subjects
might have, by an offer which,
if accepted, would fill her pockets
with foreign gold. Not a dollar
of this money did she propose tc
divide with her remaining loyal
partners in the ex-monarchy.
The document itself needs little
comment; it is a clear and sue
cinct statement of facts as far as il
goes, and its intent and purpose
may be summed up in the three
words, "cash on delivery"

THE BOARD OF HEALTH.

The excellent work already In
augurated by the new board OF
health is most praiseworthy. The
present board has probably done
more for the unfortunate inmates
of the leper settlement than any
preceding board in the same length
of time. The full reports Of the
boards work, published in this
paper. have done much to attract
attention to this department of the
public service.
The work thus far actually ac-
complished, however, is but little
compared with that which is left
to be done, and which, in the
interests of public health and
morality, the board is preparing
to undertake as soon as possible.
The segregation of lepers is the
wise and humane policy which the
board will undoubtedly carry out
in a kind yet firm manner. Un-
fortunately this matter has not
been attended to as it should have
been by previous boards, but there
is no good reason for delaying it
longer.
The successful establishment OF
a vaccine farm, and the determina-
ton to carry out the law of vaccina-
ton to the letter, will also receive
the hearty endorsement and ap-
plause of the public. 1t is to be
hoped that in carrying out further
reforms, the board will not find its
means too limited to secure good
practical results.

WISE AND OTHERWISE.

Now let our Hawaiian scientists
prick up their ears. The Smith
sonian Institute offers four prizes
aggregating $4,000 and a medal
for new discoveries sin regard to
the nature or properties of atmo-
spheric air." As a starter one of
our local scientists might win a
prize and probably the medal by
proving that we have atmospheric
air" in Hawaii that has sustained
life for the past six months in
royalist hangers-on, out of a job
or too lazy to work.

The Record.

Of all the human beings, the
members of the Democratic party
in the United States should have
been the last to spoil the annexa-
tion of the Sandwich Islands.
The greatest record the Demo-
cracy have made in this country
has been by annexation. They
certainly did not fight off Florida
when it became, by natural attrac-
ton, a part of this nation. If this
country has been Mugwumped
then, as now, the Spaniards would
have held Florida as they hold
Cuba.
There was furry Of opposition
to the purchase of Alaska, but that
act was itself enough to confer last
ing fame upon an Administration.
William H, Seward and Charles
Sumner never showed higher
craftsmanship than in the trans
action. The seal fishery was alone
worth more than we paid for the
east corner of the Continent and
the islands stretching across many
degrees of longitude into the Asia
tic seas.
The Whig party was smashed
becauseit had not the sagacity to
go for the annexation of Texas and
the conquest of Mexico. with the
annexation of Lower Pacific States
and all the magnificently endowed
country between Texas and Califor-
MA STANDARD Union.

ANIMAL TEA PARTY.
The Ladies of Central Union
Church Entertain Friends.

The annual tea party given by
the ladies of the Central Union
Church took place Thursday. A
large number of guests were present
including the pastors of the Hawai-
ian Evangelical Association and
their families.
The church parlors were convert
ed into cafe and small tables
were neatly arranged at which the
guests sat to sip their tea and eat
the delicious cake which was fur
nished by the ladies. A bevy of
young ladies were tireless in their
attention to the wants of the peo-
pie present which made everybody
feel at home. After tea was served
time was enjoyably spent in social
converse.

| is finished. The desperate nature
of the disease which was threaten
ing the existence of Hawaiian civil
liberty required the heroic remedy
that has cured it. The blow which
royalty attempted to strike was
warded off; happily the royallst
knife did not enter deeply and
failed to wound our liberties as
sorely as intended.
The conspirator and tyrant are
the worst of statesman. If the first
were imbued with statecraft he
would not conspire; if the latter
were, the world would be blessed
with constitutional monarchs and
there would be little necessity for
evolving republics from monarch
ical upheavals. In the little
world of Hawaii the political con=
ditions of the past two years have
been such that the inevitable con-
clusion was soon reached. There
is no chance for a political relapse,
as this would introduce an element
of political instability which would
speedily re-enact the undesirable
and dangerous political drama of
the last five months. Having the
aid of experience, its repetition
would condense the whole into an
act, and the act into simple
scene, upon which the historic
curtain would drop forever. No
question of restoration would then
arise.
Perhaps it is much better for all
concerned, especially for those who
believed in sustaining constitution
al government until it was Knocked
at and broken by the ex-queen,
that lack Of knowledge of revolu-
tionary measures and their defects
has caused a delay in the perma-
nent establishment of popular gov
in Hawaii. By this de-
lay, however, the final result will
be made more sure and undisputed.
Those who failed to sustain the |
monarchy cannot restore it; and it
is futile to hope it can be restored |
by outside influence. Such course |
would prove at once Impractical
and dangerous.
1t is very certain the United
States will not pursue policy |
which would certainly make Ha-
waii, within a few months, the
pivot upon which would turn a
dispute international in character |
and worldwide in its effects. 1t |
is our belief the partition of the
Pacific has already been determin-
ed upon by the powers mostly in
terested, viz: England and the
United States.

Perhaps greater caution should
be taken in tropical countries than
elsewhere in dealing with santa
ton. For the past ten years or
more Honolulu has been lucky
rather than cleanly. As the new
board of health is instituting
numerous greatly needed reforms
in sanitary matters, it will not be
improper to suggest that the board
establish a system of house-to-
house inspection, such as is made
in many of the large cities of the
United States and elsewhere. The
result would be to abate hundreds
of private nuisances, which people
now put up with rather than COM
plain. Under proper regulations
from the board it would also eradi-
cate some public nuisances which
it seems now impossible to abate,
even with the alleged aid of the
law.

a synopsis Of the first convention
of the leaders of the republican
party of the United States since
their defeat in November last. 1t
was held in Louisville, Kentucky,
and appears to have been an i'm
mense and very enthusiastic gather
ing. President Clarkson of the
National League delivered the
opening address, which was lengthy
but intensely interesting We can
find space for few only of its para
graphs, in one of which he alludes
to Hawaii, and arraigns President
Cleveland for hauling down the
American flag which gallant Ben
Harrison ran up in the name of
liberty in the Sandwich islands,"
II Mr.. Clarkson will only wait a
few months he may find that Presi-
dent Cleveland has decided to run
it up" again, and thus take to him
self and the democrats little of
the glory which Clarkson claims
for his defeated party.

Situation in Hawaii.

A suggestive insight of political
affairs in the Hawaiian Islands is
given in a recent letter from a
member of the Hawaiian Commits
sion which negotiated the late an
nexation treaty with this country
to a personal friend here. He
writes under date of Honolulu,
April 26, as follows:
"Spreckels came down here, and
is here now to break up annexa-
tion-so he declares. He called
on Mr.. Blount on Monday, and, so
we hear, declared his opposition to
annexation unless the contract
labor system is protected. Ofcourse
Mr.. Blount was just as mum with
him as with everyone else. He
then declared that he was opposed
to annexation-wants some sort of
republican form of government
there, with United States protec-
torate, etc. Mr.. Blount asked him
to put his desire in writing and he
would forward it to Washington.
Mr.. Spreckels, that evening, with
the assistance of two planters, at
tempted to put his ideas in shape,
and the next day (20th) had a
meeting with the most prominent
planters and business men. He
rather demanded that they should
all sign his letter or statement to
Mr.. Blount. He was quietly op-
posed, and became very angry.
While gentlemen tried to speak,
explaining their ideas that safe
and responsible government was
far more important now than con-
tract labor, he interrupted them
angrily. He finally told them:
"'You shan't get annexation. I'll
block i'll You will never get into
the United States
''He is now trying to break up
the growing annexation sentiment.
He is determined to succeed
boasts that his money will do it in
Washington, and that he will get
what he wants.
"In view of the statement that
Mr.. Cleveland entered the White
House with an ugly suspicion that
the whole annexation movement
was a move on the part of the trust
to get in, | think these facts are
very significant. We are feeling
rather depressed, for he may be
able to accomplish his purpose, and
if we are delivered over to the ten
der mercies of a Spreckels oligar-
ehy protected by the United States
we shall soon have the foodgates
opened to the ignorant hordes of
Asia all or many white mechanics
and laborers will be forced to leave,
and much else of that nature.
With annexation such state of
affairs is not possible.
"Mr. Blount is doing good work.
He is a man Of excellent judgment,
perfectly fair, and no doubt by this
time thoroughly appreciates the
situation, and everything he learns
rebounds to the credit of the revo-
luton and the party Of annexation.
The Provisional government grows
stronger every day. More and
more ofthe native Hawaiians wheel
into line and favor annexation, |
convinced that that, and that only,
can ultimately benefit Hawaii. l
believe that Mr.. Blount sees that
annexation and not a protectorate
is the true policy."-[New York
Tribune.

which Mr.. Spreckels wished the
planters to sign, to be presented to
Minister Blount, reminds one of the
statement of the case made by
southern planters "long before de
wa" when it was alleged that free
labor meant ruination to the sugar
industry. The southern planters
have learned since then that free
labor does not necessarily mean
improbable plantations. The Ha-
waiian planters have kept pace
with those of the south, and when
Mr.. Spreckels shall have had more
actual and personal experience
with modern labor methods, he
will be in better position to ad-
wise the sugar interests of Hawaii.
Cheap labor is not the chiefest
factor in sugar raising. Stable gov
ernment with a sound financial
basis back of it, cuts some figure.
The Hawaiian gazette., 1893-06-13

The Philadelphia Record plants
thus: If Hawaii is annexed $5,-
100000 will have to be paid to the
planters in sugar bounty. The edi-
tor from the "leather-head state"
then adds: This is the size of
their planters stake in the ques-
ton of annexation. But as the
sugar bounties are likely to be re-
pealed by the next congress the
stake is rather precarious." Is it
possible the Record has been pin
ing faith to Claus Spreckels' silly
prattle about his representing the
Hawaiian planters and the annexa-
ton movement?
The Hawaiian gazette., 1893-06-13


The amenities of party journal
ism in the United States have been
lately exemplified by some of the
republican newspapers claiming
that in refusing to allow office
seekers to call on him, President
Cleveland has practically cut the
acquaintance of the rank and file
of the democracy. The republican
papers suppress the fact that Mr..
Cleveland has not gone back on
the "great unwashed," but has
merely turned them over, impor-
tunities and persistency, to his
democratic heads of departments.

In Mexico they are about to take
a new departure in treating the
duelling question. The fiery
''greaser," it seems, cannot be re-
strained from fighting duels at safe
long range in the land of the cac-
tus. The legislature therefore pro-
poses to sanction duelling by law,
but will also prescribe such weap-
ons and distance as will ensure the
death of one or both of the COM
batants. A man will think twice,
and long enough to get over his
mad, before he sends a challenge
hereafter in Mexico, if the law
passes.

dinner in an Eastern city, Mr..
George, on the subject Of "The

then to elect a president, con-

a Pretty Face at 8 Carriage Window
QuelIs a Wrangle of Transfers.
Three Broadway cars, four trucks, a
mail wagon and a light cart became en-
tangled in a street blockade the other
day. 1t was bitter cold and the drivers
felt grieved that they had to stand still,
according to the New York Sun.
, Then a handsome carriage with a
spanking team and an old driver in
livery tried to worm it's way through
the blockade. There was a rattle and
a bang, and the carriage wheels were
caught fast by the wheels of a truck.
"Hah, We swash-faced, lunk-headed
baboon." a car driver yelled to the liv-
cried driver, ''whar' N ell y gawn?"
"Gabback out O. that!' cried another
driver.
The air was blue with profanity, each
driver vying to outswear the other.
The driver of the carriage said never a
word, but his face was a study. Rage,
hostility n cuss words were struggling
there with restraint and duty.
Just then the carriage door was
opened from within and a ROSY face ap-
peared, budding from a hazy mass of
light furs.
1t was a sweet, blue-eyed, young and
very pretty face, only the mouth wa
contracted as if in pain.
"What'sth the matter, John?" she asked,
plaintively. Cant you drive on? I'm
just freezing in here"
The swearing ceased at once, and no
n looked John in the face. But the
driver of the car backed his horses, the
truck pulled up a little, the cart swung
slightly around, and the carriage
passed through and rolled on its way.
