WHY THEY KICK.

The latest phase of Hawaiian
politics is that of a royalist news
paper assuming journalistic pro-
tectorate over Commissioner Blount
to save him and the United States
from the Machiavelian schemes of
the Provisional government, who,
it is alleged, are trying to extin-
guish the freedom of the press"
The royalists are tender upon this
point. They believe the defense
of their cause lies rather in an ex-
treme freedom or license of the
press than in legitimate journal
ism. Calm discussion of the
grave questions involved in the
present Hawaiian crisis would not
appeal to political prejudices and
would consequently exclude unjust
and bitter personalities.
This view is strengthened by
remembering that the royalist
journal now complaining of the
proposed restrictions upon the
license of the press, set the exam
pie in this direction months ago
by making an unprovoked and un-
called for attack upon the accred-
tied representative of the United
States to these islands. This was
done to aid half a dozen well
known local politicians in carrying
out a scheme for controlling native
Legislators by raising a side issue,
appealing to certain well-known
race prejudices, and thereby secur-
ing cabinet positions otherwise be-
yond their grasp.
The plan succeeded temporarily.
Unfortunately for the hopes OF Its
promoters, however, it proved the
beginning of the end now confront
ing the royalist faction from politl-
cal pickanlnnles to self-constltuteo
press mentors, who unite in raising
their combined wall against the
proposed restraining law OF the
government. The wrong was COM
mitted when the royalist press
assumed a license for wantonly
attacking the representative OF a
friendly foreign power; and it only
aggravates the offense to plead in
extenuation personal dislike of the
representative.
The fact is, political clique was
at that time making fight against
certain influential American resi-
dents; had the opposition been
against the members of any other
nationality, the rcyalist politicians

THE citation issued to S. II.

cedure on the part of the govern

Licorice root comes principally
from Asia Minor, and is the root
of bush not more than 3 or 4 feet
high. The dried roots are sent to
Bagdad, and thence to London and
America. The black licorice stick
in the drug stores comes mostly
from Spain, and is made of pure
Juice mixed with a little starch,
which prevents it from melting in
warm weather. The word licorice
means "sweet root" and is of
Greek origin.-Ex.

too thorough Democrat. and by others of
being too much OF II temperance man.
What claim BARTLETT has to votes on the

fact. which for years has slept in obscurity.
that he was concerned in the frauds and
corruption by which BELKNAP. Gen.
GRANTS Secretary Of War. was disSraced
and driven out OF public life. To these
frauds and corruption Mr.. BARTLETT be-
came a party. not by accident. not rs a
result OF seduction. but boldly, undis-
guisedly. with his eyes wide open. He
knew what he was doing. and he did it
without a Quam. especially when 1t came
to the point OF putting in his own pocket

1t is about the compromise" which certain
Democratic Senators got UP and signed In the
belief that 1t not only had Secretary Carlisle's
favor. but would have the acquiescence Of Mr..
Cleveland. In this belief it was taken by a
Democratic Senator to a brother Senator
standing high in the estimation OF his party,
more especially on account OF the part he has
taken for repeal and Democratic success gem

Senator. after listening to the representations
as to the Secretary and the President declined

something to do with its being tho first to feel

The Top-heavy Cruisers.

Secretary HERBERT has not only taken
the wisest course in appointing Board OF
experts to examine the ships suspected OF
instability. but he has further served the
public interests by appointing one OF the
best Boards that could be constituted.
Whatever the results reached. the compe-
tency and fairness Of this investigating
body are not likely to be called in question
Some OF the naval vessels to be examined
have less stability than Is desirable or than
they were intended to have. The fault.
wherever 1t may DO found to exist. can
easily be remedied. and every one OF these
vessels will be able to do good service with
certain changes. In some instances all that
is required may be the lowering Of the centre
OF gravity by putting the required number
OF tons Of cement along the keel. Or. again.
masts can be shortened and batteries some
what reduced. A precedent Is that Of the
Philadelphia. built under Mr.. WHITNEY's
administration. which. when completed.
was considered less stable than she was de-
sired and planned to be. 30 that changes
in her masts were made. The Board will
doubtless find miscalculations In some
cases that require. besides other changes,
the reduction OF batteries. This resort,
however. Is not likely to be recommended
unless absolutely necessary.
A theory was at first started that the
Bureau Of Ordnance must have put on the
2.OOO-tonners heavier guns than the Bureau
of Construction was willing that they should
carry. The facts are exactly the reverse. The
act OF Sept. 7. 1888. authorized six unarmor-
ed cruisers. the Olympia. the Cincinnati.
the Raleigh. the Montgomery, the Detroit.
and the Marblehead. besides the practice
vessel Bancroft. All six cruisers were,
under the plans. to carry. as parts OF their
main batteries. four-inch guns. the first
three to have ten each. and the last three to
have eight each. The Chief OF the Bureau OF
Ordnance set forth to Secretary TRACY the
advantage Of mounting fve-inch guns In
stead. provided the vessels should not be
affected unfavorably In other respects, The
proper bureau to be consulted on this latter
point. and especially with regard to stabil-
ity. was the Bureau Of Construction. Sec
rotary TRACY accordingly asked the views
OF that bureau. and on its assurance that
the stability OF the vessels would not be i'm
perilled he ordered the change.
6uoh matters are habitually conducted In
writing. and all the correspondence IL to-
day in Secretary HKRBERT's files. 1t shows
