THE BASTILE ANNIVERSARY

We congratulate our fellow citizens
of French birth or desceut upon the
great event in the history Of their race
which is celebrated to dav wherever
the French language is spoken, We
wish we could report its wider and
fuller observance, for the anniversary,
while historically French, is politically
one which should be cause Of r,ioic.
ing in all liberal countries. The fall of
the Bastile had an influence tor good
wherever grass grows and waters run.
The policies which grew out OF it re-
deemed France from absoutism and
struck down the pretense of divine
right 1t encouraged true republican
ism in America and increased and
clarified the constitutional spirit in
England. Every advance away from
regal prerogative in Germany, Spain,
Belgium, Italy and in South America
and the islands Of the sea owes some
of its impulse to the spirit which in
spired the majestic rising against the
monarchy whose beetling front, typiied
by the towers and bastions of the
Bastile, had overawed the common

In that day which Tennyson foreslw,
when there shall be a federati of the
world upon a broad pedestal of peace
and brotherhood, the anniversary of
the fall of the Bastile, like that of
American independence, ought to be a
holiday Of the human race as wide.
spread in its acknowledgment among
the lovers If freedom and equality as
Christmas is among those who wear
the sign Of the cross.
Here in Hawaii we have particu.
lar sympathy with the lessons to be
drawn from the natal day of re.
publican Gaul. This nation, too, has
had a Bastle to cast down-one not
expressed in armored walls and frown-
ing cannon, but in sodden and heather
rule, in pagansn, vice and greed pro-
tected by throne and thriving in the
favor of a crown. That Bastile is no
more, and its site will yet be covered
with the free flag of great republic. In
times to come the 18th of January will
be to US what the I4th of July is to
France; but it will yield to the greater
day the homage due the beginning Of
the modern era of liberty in Europe.

T HE STATESMAN AT ROME,

The supreme political ability Of Leo
XIII has been recognized in all coun-
tries since the year of his pontiical &C
cesslon. When he came to the chair
OF Peter it was predicted that he would,
If he lived, make a broad and deep
mark upon the annals of his time and
that he has succeeded in so doing very
many circumstances attest. Even so
masterful monarch as the German
Kaiser has recognized his growing
power in calling him to his aid in do
mestic and international affairs. As a
last and potent resource, England sent
an ambassador to him to induce him
to quiet the political movement in
Ireland. He did so. Gradually but
surely Leo has undermined and broken
down the hostility of Italy to the church,
and with the most surprising finesse
has strengthened the Holy See in
France by making it a safeguard of the
republic The manner in which he has
dealt with great Catholic questions in
the United States -- reassuring the
friends of the free school system on the
one hand and solidifying the Catholic
hosts on the other--has been worthy
of great master Of affairs. Then to
crown all, the Pope is about to bring
within the pale of the church nearly
sixty millions of Greek Catholics and
with them one of the most powerful
princes of the age.
While these vast political undertak
ings have been going forward the pom.
tiff has not by any means neglected
the spiritual welfare of men, as witness
the missionary zeal with which his
priests have prosecuted their work in
all countries. We have an example OF
this policy in Hawaii and can find
others everywhere, in the forests OF
Manitoba, in the maize fields of the
Cape, upon the wastes of the Soudan
and in the farthest confines of Pata-
gonia. Wherever men live, there are the
tireless, patient, interchangeable emssa,
ries of Leo the Thirteenth. That they
will add millions to the flock Of the
Roman shepherd who can doubt'
1t will be a great day for the cause
of Professionalism when the churches of
that communion shall merge their
great issues and conduct their affairs
with half the prescience, wisdom and
energy which the present Pope has i'm
parted to the management apd guld-
ance of the temporal and spiritual in
terests of the Holy See. There will
be no absurd heresy contentious when
that time comes to discourage and
confuse the work of saving souls.

THE USUAL DISAPPOINTMENT.

The following is the HolomHa's,
grammar and all :
That Neumann's letter has had a
paralyzng effect on the government
there can be no doubt Of 1t is not
the words in the letter itself which
worry them, it is not even the force
and weight which the government
knows that Neumann's letter will carry
with it both here, and more especially
abroad, but it is the terrible significance
of the appearance of that letter at this
particular time-two days before the
arrival Of the steamer from California.
Incredible as it may seem, the Aus.
tralia arrived, locked, disembarked its
passengers, began to discharge its
freight-and the heavens did not fall
To be sure small comet broke loose
among the camp fires OF northern
constellation and Claus Spreckels was
seen around town with some anxious
RoyaistS who lost no chance to stand
him up for another round. A lost
cockatoo was also deserted flying up
Nuuanu street with a mysterious and
oracular squawk and there were signs
and portents in the HolOmHa office
that at least one day might pass with
out a compositor demanding his back
pay. Beyond that nothing unusual
happened and in Government circles
the white goose of peace nestled on
the eggs of harmony.
May it not be best to postpone the
expected cataclysm until another
steamer shall come in2 There is ample
precedent in the Royalist camp for
putting things off, as behold the fifteen
or twenty postponements OF Restora-
ton day; the deferred arrivals of the
" Australian and other interfering
fleets; the week by week delay in the
break down of the Provisional credit
in fact, the regular non occurrence OF
hundred sensations, all cf which have
been gravely predicted by the British
organ of the Hawaiian pretender Yes,
postponement is the word, in spite Of

MR.. STEVENS AT HOME.

The ovation received by Mr. Stevens
on his return home was enthusiastic
in all that went to make enthusiasm a
compliment to patriotism, good sense
and diplomatic ability. The represent
alive people Of all parties in Augusta
met to do the returned statesman honor
and to impress him with a sense OF
their appreciation of his character and
services.
We give in to-day's STAR the full
text of Mr.. Stevens address. 1t differs
in matter but not in sentiment from
that which was reported from San
Francisco and Chicago and refutes
some of the later charges made against
the Minister'S diplomatic course during
the revolution and in the days proceed
ing and succeeding that event. The
speech makes a document of the weight
and Importance OF State paper and
cannot fail to have good effect upon
the popular Hawaiian cause.
To-m,rrow we shall supplement Mr.
Stevens argument by another OF great
power and cogency from the pen OF an
accomplished American writer upon
political law and practice.

Ii was an error into which We are
sorry that any correspondent could fall,
to tell the people of the United States

The mistake was UNDERSIGNED by the

certain circumstances, to be shot down.

Fargo May 29.-The National Bank OF
North Dakota was to-day closed by order
of the comptroller Of the. currency, and is
now in the hands of Bank Examiner
Diamonds.
It was controlled by e. Ashley Mears,
who manages dozen other national and
state banks in North Dakota. The lnstitu-
tion never had the confidence of the people
Of the state, but drew its patronage from
the east. It's failure will not effect Fargo
institutions, the other banks of the city
not having had any intercourse with the
one which failed.
The First National Bank of Lakota was
also closed to-day. This is another Mears
bank.

known thesassets and liabilities of the in
stitution until the affairs of the network
of banks are Strengthened. Mears' meth

and it is limited he will lose nothing by the
failure, eastern stockholders being the
