OHIO.

COLUMBUS, O., Nov. 9.-The returns
mt noon yesterday showed that Gov.
Mckinley has $4,000 plurality over Neal
and $4,000 majority over all his three
opponents. The legislature is over
whelmingly republican and stands as
follows: Senate-republicans "a, dem
ocrats Z. House-Republicans SO, dem
ocrats 25. Out of SS counties in Ohio
Mckinley carried o. and in many Of the
others was only few hundred behind
Neal. 1t is the largest plurality or ma
jority ever given any man elected gov
ernor in the state save the l0l, 1852 to
Brough over Vallandigham in 1888.
The republican gains were uniform all
over the state and the country precincts
gained as much for Mckinley as the
voting places in the cities or manufac-
turing towns. This city gave McKin-
ley 1000 majority and the county 1,GOO,
going republican for the FIRST time
since 1855.
Chairman Dick late last evening
summed up the situation as folloA:
The republican victory is complete
and unprecedented. McKinley's plu-
rality will possibly reach 10000, and
the greatest ever given any governor
except John Brough, and more re-
marliable political revolution than
even the enormous plurality of the war
governor. The republicans have elec-
ted twenty-five or twenty-six out OF
thirty-one senator's and from eighty
five TO ninety representatives; also
three-fourths Of the county officials OF
the state and most of the district Off
cials All of the congressional dis
tr1cts but two appear to have gone re-
publican. The people have spoken and
free trade is isrepudiated by the greatest
majority that ever rebuked any politi-
cal sophistry in our history"
CANTON, O., Nov. 9.-Stark county,
unofficial, gives Mckinley SSS plurality.
For representative, Rowlen beats Wey-
brecht by so. The democrats do not
get man on their ticket Wise, for
probate Judge, has 500; Bow, prose-
cutor, 1000; Doll, sheriff, $50; Thomas,
representative, 700; Geib treasurer,
400; Bixler, inhrmary director, 600.
Two precincts will not mako material
changes. McKinley's official plurality
in Canton is II, gain of 70s.
CLEVELAND, Nov. 9.-Yesterday af'
ternoon even figures were at hand to
show the extent of tho republican vic
tory in Cuyahoga county. Mckinley
ran behind his ticket about hundred
votes, but his plurality is the greatest
given in this county in many years,
which is 0,Ols. The full city and coun-
ty ticket was carried By the republic
ans by an average majority of $500.
Mt. GmEAD. O., Nov p.-Following
are the pluralities in Morrow county:
Mckinley, 49l; I. e. Duncan, common
pleas judge, 1000; Hugh q. Rogers,

NEW YORK.

New York, Nov. 0.-The election in
this state was clean and complete
sweep for the republicans, and every
hour only adds TO the tlioroughness Of
the defeat suffered by the democrats.
Bartlett Is elected to the court of ap-
peals probably by over 95.OaO plurality,
and the rest of the republican state
ticket wins by CO. 900. The state senate,

democratic. Three republicans were
elected Tuesday.
Brooklyn overwhelmed the ring with
a plurality of $1,000 for Shiren for

iu Kings county being $4,000. The
board OF aldermen is republican, eleven
ito eight. Five supervisors were gained,
one OF them supervisor-atlarge, but
the board is still democratic. Three

says this communication, "to visit the
Hawaiian Islands and make report to
me concerning the present status Of
affairs in that country" That the mis-
sion is friendly one to the Provisional
Government would seem to be indiCat-
ed by the further statement that Mr.
Blount "will use every endeavor to
advance the interests and prosperity of
both governments. " There is much
in these deliveranCes to cheer the
friends of the dominant regime and
nothing to discourage them. The
hauling down of the flag, viewed in the
light of a move to put the present
authorities on negotiable basis, or
even as measure to give the natives a
chance to express their opinions with
out intimidation being possibly i'm.
puted, is not inconsistent with a pur-
pose of President Cleveland's part to
adopt a wise Hawaiian policy.

His Reply to a Personal Attack in the

would pay no attention to the article
referred to, but l want to state the facts
in the case. Mr.. Hutchings was heard
to say that there we're not half dozen
respectable people who upheld the Pro.
visional Government. AS Commissary
for the p. c., l have occasion frequent.
ly to purchase supplies of his employer
for the Government, and | asked him
if he approved the statement or Senti-
ments expressed by Mr.. H, to which
he replied "No." Everyone who knows
him feels sure that he is a staunch sup
porter of our government, and other
employees in the establishment have al
ways come forward when needed.
Mr. H., when asked about the state
ment, denied that he had made it, al
though several persons say they heard
him make it. Referring to the monde
script badge on his coat, he wanted me
to understand that meant opposition.

the Provisional Government, and he
answered eyes"

EQUAL SUFFRAGE.
Rev. S. E. Bishop Discusses the Rights
OF Native Hawaiians.

The Hawaiians will have full citizen
ship and equal civil rights, and every
person who asserts the contrary is
uttering what is most base and cruel
falsehood.
We who advocate annexation are
doing it not merely as for the general
welfare of Hawaii, but because we be-
lieve it will be for the highest interests
of the native Hawaiian as we'll They
will be delivered from the heathenizing
influence of the Court, which has long
been dragging them down and destroy
ing them. They will enjoy and profit
by the powerfully elevating influences
of American liberty and American
citizenship. There is no enemy Of
Hawaiians so perniCious as he who
would restore the unspeakable native
monarchy.-The Friend.

CANADIAN ANNEXATION.

The following is from recent speech
of U. S. Senator Higgins of Delaware:
"But l now come to the question of
peace or war. So long as the two coun-
tries are separate domestic strife may
occur. So long as Canada remains
dependency of Great Britain, we are
liable to be involved in European war.
So long as Great Britain remains
military power on this continent, so
long is Great Britain continuing threat
against our peace England is to-day
a silent partner with the Dreibund
made up OF Germany, Austria and
Italy. BY reason of England's reten.
ton of Canada we are bound in
common interest with Russia and
France against England and the Drei-
bund.
"While Canada remains with the
stunted growth of 100000 we can
easily take possession of her in over.

the yawning fortresses Of Halifax,
Bermuda and Esquimalt would mt an
while subject our sea board cities to
ransom or devastation and our COM
merce to blockade so long as we re-
main lacking in an adequate navy and
seacoast defenses, and Detroit would
again become strategic point around
which the tide of battle would rage.
"But neither the American nor the
Canadian people can contemplate with
equanimity Canada filled with 20,

people under flag alien and possibly
hostile to the United States, When
that day comes standing armies will
arise on both sides. Great fortresses
will be built along the border, while
Detroit, Chicago and all the lake cities
from Baffalo to Duluth will become
subjects to all the vicissitudes of war.

THE Friend, the paper which Rev.
S, f. Bishop SO ably conducts, speaks
of matter of current interest as fol-
lows:
In view of the menacing attitude Of Japan to-
wards these Islands, as shown in many marked
and significant ways, the ultimate solution Of
the political problem cannot be doubted as
lying in speedy annexation to the United
States, or failing that, in cession to Great
Britain, as the next most desirable Christian
Protector. Independence has thoroughly ceased
to be possibility. We have no doubt, how
ever, of the favorable action OF the United
States
The faith that the United States will
take the islands cannot be shaken by
recent events. For fifty years the
American government has regarded
this group as its future possession and
has shaped its diplomacy to that end.
1t may now hesitate about technical
methods, but that it will miss the main
chance at the wind-up is not to be
thought of.

CITRUS FRUIT PEST.
Its Effect Upon Orange Trees About
This City.


The following statements have been
made in report to Minister King by
a Commissioner Of Agriculture and
Forestry:
The attention of your Commissioner has
been forcibly drawn to the blight which is de
vastating, and in many instances completely
killing the citrus fruit trees in and around the
city of Honolulu. This blight is easily mis-.
taken by many persons Especially when not
closely examined) for the cottony cushion scale,
and unlike that pest there is unfortunately
no insect enemy known that will destroy it.
Energetic action is greatly needed to eradi.
cate this blight, and to this end | would
propose that your Commissioner be instructed
TO at once commence the manufacture OF a
solution that has always been tried with good
results in killing this blight, and furnish the
same at cost to those persons who wish ia
spray their own trees. Also, that a number
Of spraying outfits be purchased, and men in
structed in their use and hired out at cost to
any person wishing to have their trees cleared
of blight, to render action against the blight
effective. Legislative action is needed allow
| ing any person who goes TO The trouble Of
clearing his own trees Of blight TO compel his
lneiuhbors on either side of his premises &c
have their trees cleared from blight, they in
turn having the same power over their nex
ne ghbo.s 1t is only by some such means
| that the blight can be got rid Of, as one tree
infected by blight will keep injecting contigu
Gus trees no matter how often they are clean
ed. Your Commissioner would respectfully
recommend that the Bureau have bill drafted
embracing the provisions mentioned, and re
quest the Government to introduce the same

Mistaken Identity.

Captain Hooper of the Rush looks
so much like Commissioner Blount that
he hardly dared come ashore on account
of the leis and the interviewers. Several
people tried to get his ear on the
annexation question, and the other day
at the government building, when the
flag came down, he was surrounded by
a curious and admiring crowd of natives.
The Captain was rather FESTIVE under his
unsought honors.

MR.. BLoUNT'S POSITION.
Some Authoritative Statements From
President Dole.

President Dole said this morning,
that Commissioner Blount had ex-
planned his course in regard to the flag
on the ground that it was desired to
have the Provisional Government stand
in a position with its sovereignty I'M
impaired by foreign protectorate.
Mr.. Blount also distinctly assured
the President and Ministry, that the
United States would brook no inter
ference with the Hawaiian Govern
ment by any foreign power.
This explanation is the one which
has been generally accepted, although
not held to be authoritative before.

for the purpose of booming the anti
annexation cause, but was not very

principle speaker and spent the time in
expatiating on patriotism and praising
his own abilities as a political leader.
The natives of the district are turning
