now popularity known as the Doodle
Cottage
Five Of these men are ex-cabi
net ministers and one of them an
ex-reyal chamberlain. To show
the insincerity of these men in
their opposition to annexation, it
only needs TO be stated that five of
them, before the revolution, were
public advocates of annexation.
Still another says that he is not OPP
posed TO annexation, but does not
ike the way it is to be brought
about; and still another says he
wants TO be annexed, but does not
want to be dragged into it. All Of
which means that these men are
convinced that the annexation of
these islands to the United States
is eminently desirable, but that
they are at this juncture opposed
to it because they are not at the
head of affairs themselves.
''These men are not representa-
tive of any patriotic sentiment nor
of any large commercial interests,
nor have they the backing of the
best men among the Hawaiians, as
we'll as among foreigners. In
causing Mr.. Blount's name TO be
placed on the cane, they simply
gave expression to their policy to
claim for the cause of restoration
what they thought would help
them among their Hawaiian fol-
lowers. The only political out
look for these men is what would
come to them should restoration
ever take place. AS they have been
the favorites of royalty in the past,
so they would expect to be in the
future.
at will be seen at once that they
are taking desperate chances to
Jake the name of the United States
minister to bolster up their own
political interests. Some of these,
men, together with the ex-queen,
are the owners Of the only papers
in the islands opposed to annex
alton, and these papers, without eX-
ception, are edited by Englishmen.
While the English government
would undoubtedly not enter any
protest against annexation of the
islands by the United States, a
certain class Of English residents
there, not the best ones by any
means, do not hesitate to do what
ever lies in their power to oppose
annexation to the United States.
Nordhoff and Spreckels recognize,
and must be ashamed of the COM
pany they have been found in for
the past few months at Honolulu.
They have not affiliated with the
best class of citizens, but have kept
company with & class of political
adventures and royalists on the
verge of bankruptcy.
mot any too soon did Nordhoff
and Spreckels depart from Homo
lulu, although, to be consistent,
they had to make some smoke to
cover their retreat. When Spreck-
els says the Provisional government
is doomed, he says it knowing all
the time that it has never been
stronger nor in better position to
conduct a treaty of annexation
with the United States, and one
that will be readily ratified by all
the progressive elements in Hawaii
and probably by large majority
even of the Hawaiians themselves
"The people who favor a perman.
ent government are competing
against class of men who would
be destructive of good government

A few months ago we called
your attention to these Goods
and to the fact that we would
soon be prepared to supply
you. It's so long since, you
have probably forgotten all
about it.
We had commenced to think
ourselves that the manufac-
tuners had mislaid our order,
and on writing to ascertain
the delay were informed that
the demand was so great that
each order had to be taken in
turn, and ours being away
down on the list, it would take
some time to reach it.
We had these goods made up
in BALBRIGGAN, as they are the
incest and coolest goods to
wear.
In the backs and fronts of
these Shirts, pure, soft wool
has been skillfully woven to
protect the lungs from cold.
To those who cannot wear
all-wool garments, these goods
are a boon.
New and fresh from the
looms, a novelty never before
introduced here, and an absO-
lutte necessity to those who de-
sire to maintain their health.

Among the decisions handed down BY the
Supreme Court al P.ttsburg last week was
one relating 20 partition or line fences. 1t
had been held by many eminent lawyers
that when the fence law Of 100 with regard
to outside fences was repealed in lSS9, that
the act Of 1872, which required the erection
Of line or partition fences, not being speci-
fed in the act, continued to remain law
0a the other hand, lawyers of high stand
ing claimed that the act of 1872 was repealed
By implication when the act Of I7O0 was re-
moved from the statute books.
But Judge Mcclure held that the law OF
1912 is valid and Judge Dean has sustained
him in this view, the point Of difference be-
ing where the Supreme Court held that in
the case OF Barber vs.. Meusch, that the de-
fendant should have seen that there was suf-
icient fencing to keep in his own cattle, not
wi;hstaniing the fact that there had existed
between the litigants an agreement for each
to keep up one half of the fence. Hereafter,
according TO Judge Dams decision, man
who wishes 10 pasture cattle mast see that
the whole partition or line fsace is saliisient
to keep his cattle on his own premises, with
the right TO recover one half Of the costs of
the fence from his adj 1insr.
In other words, the Supreme court holds
that all agreements between parties for the
maintenance of oae-half by each will not
stand, and that the man vino wishes 10 pas
tnre his cattle mast see 70 itthst they do not
damage bis a5j0iaer. Ia clses where yol
hAye already your half under an agreement,
your only remedy sgains. your adjoiner who
refuses to build bis half is to construct the
fence and then pat viewers on uader the at
OF 1872 to recover the cost ofyour a5jOiner's
half

NO LICENSE TO WE'D.
The Last Legislature Made a Mess
of the Marriage Law.

The many persons who have been daily
fling into Register aud Recorder Hileman's
Office and paying fly cents for marriage
licenses viii De surprised TO learn that no
marriage license is now in efIsci in this state
that none has been sincs May 1, Of this year,
and none viii be until Ociooer !, 1880 Such
Is the fact, however. according to the laws Of
1899, as published officially by the slsie
printer, aud no more need loving young
couples sail TO the wilds of Mary and 10
escape the sometimes irksOme law.
The trouble is all due. the Philadelphia
Record says, TO the last legislature, which, in
amending the old Law 50 as TO permit the Il
cense to be obtained not only in the county
in which the ceremony is to be performed, g,
but also in that in which either one Of The
contracting parties resides, SO changed the
enaeting clause that the law will not 90 into
effect until O,tober 1, 1875

on May OF this year, Pro7ides that so much
Of section 1 of the act eatitled d" Al acl re-
lating to marriage licenses, providing for
officers herein indicated to issue licenses for
parties to marry" approved June y, 1885.
which reads IS follows: That from and

NJ person, within this Commonwealth shall
be linei in marriage until . license shall
have been obtained for that purpose from

the county where the marriage is perform
ed, etc.
Deputy Secretary Of the Commonwealth
Tilden has examined the copy Of the law. as
originally transcribed by the clerks ofthe
House Of Representative, and here the date
IS given as it appears in the Pamphlet laws.
Mr.. Tiiden IS Of the opinion that the author
OF the law intended that il should 90 into
operation O.io5er /, 1885, but that z mistake
was made in transcribing it.
Il is alleged by some that the amending
act which, according 10 a clerical error viii
not go into elect until October Is, 1895. yir
iualIy repeals the entire marriage license act
until that date, but on the other hand il Is
claimed that the present law holds good and

Attorney General Hsnsel, when seen
in relation TO the matter said The

A sentiment is forming, and is helped by
newspaper uttersnces, against the school ex-
aminalions a, the end Of the term. Exam
nations Of this character have been aDsnd-
oned at a number of the mos. prominent
public schools Of the country and is much
to be approved. The Philadelphia Pres, has
this to say on the subject: "fhe value of
examinations in school work has become 8
debatAble question in school circles, and the
Press Of late years has been disposed to array
itself against the old system of examinations
and attack il as archaic and useless. Those
who are most familiar with the system
know that the peculiar construction Of the
child has much TO DO with his success on
examination day. A nervous, timid, shrink
ing child cannot be expected to make good
display of bis learning on such critical oc-
casion. No allowance is made for his per
sonal factor. Toe worry and nervous ten
ton for weeks before the examination can
not be wholesome for many children"
