REV0LU II N In HAWAII.

A successful bloodless revolution
has been accomplishe I in the Sand
wlch Islands and the Queen of un-
pronounceable name, spelled thus
Liliuokalani, has been dethroned
and provisional government estab =
lished.
The new government aslls'for an
nexation. Before we annex the
sayages of Cap. Cook memory, had
we better not admit the territory of
New Mexico. 1t would be well to
establish a Protectorate on the is
lands for a time at least before
taking the native savages and the
foreign adventures into the bosom of
our American family. We have
lots Of land on hand of our own to
fettle, and lots of ignorant citizens
to educate, before gong INTO the
waste of the Pacific Ocean for lands
OF populace.

THE SECRETARY STANDS
ALONE WITH THE
COMMODORE.

Modern Dege neracy has not reached
him. Secretary of State Taylor is
a man of his word. He made his
promise good. lie CLAIMS his pro-
rata fees, and properly gets his dues,
he pr omire us reward
for saving his life and we get the
pencils.
At the time of our l4th Regiment
eneampment, Candidate Sam Tay-
Ior visited Logan. lie was not mp in
military higher than Col by
courtesy and in his distress he called
upol the Conn) lore to give him
enlightenment upon the subject
always fondly handled by a candi-
date seeking the soldier vote.
The Commodore with naval court
esy steered the Candidate onto an old
hero Of food and field who proceed
ell to explain military Matters"
the Next War being the rudnments
of acquisition. After an hour and
a half on this subject of interest to
the candidate, the friendly lnstrur-
ter had only got to the, How to
Hold the Gun The Commodore
noticing the candidates wobbling
knees and dropping head and fearing
death would soon ensue, called him
away on the pretext had another
Republican voter had hove in
view.
The grateful candidate, IN gasp
ing breaths, promised tfen and there
that il be should recover, and get
to be secretary of state, he would re-
ward his deliver with State Lead
Pencil.
Yesterday be was reminded Of
his promise. Col. SamT yIor is a
pleasant gentleman. He gives
token of making No.I state official.
the very excellent kind of No pen
ellis he has in store to make good his
promise is shown by the softness
a nd tenderness herewith written.

OUrO? GEAR.

Senator Gear. who claims to have
the promise of the office of National
Game Warden, proposes to intro
duce n bill in the legislature to eX
empt woodlands from taxation, in
order to encourage wood instead Of
crop culture. This is on the pretext
that 1T will keep the bugs off the
fruit trees and plants in this way
The bugs like leaves. The more
trees IN the woods the more food
for bugs, and the less ravage will
the bugs make on the orchards and
grain fields. We suggest also that
the pasture fields be exempt from
taxation and be converted into rab
bit patches. The pastures produces
grub worms, and grab worms can
have better diet on dew berry root
than on timothy.
What the lofty minded game
keeper to the king wants is, that
the taxes shall be removed from the
hunting grounds of the counties, so
that idleness may he encouraged
with wider domain and the land
that is cultivated bear all the tax, a
proper penalty in these times to i'm
pose on people who are foolish
enough to work.
The Same Warden should be vo-
ted brass horn, and possom tail
in testimony of his craftsmanship.

him out to vote against our sloc al
Electric Light Enabling Act.
Now he Is taking the place of
Fraud lden, who after voting for
Sherman last winter. went off and
drowned himself politically in the
Licking Reservoir Park Bill.
The Representative from Perry is
not tdaunted bu. reyives the measure,
and has up a bill to conve 1T the Res
ervoir into state property, make it
exclusive hunting and froiic ground
for the State House officials and the
sporting men of Columbus. The
Perry statesman must indeed have q
light head 70 think he can keep
above water with this kind of a
measure in the Ohio Legislature.
We have some beautiful pie mic
grounds in Hooking, some fine
stretches of woodland hill and dale.
where squirrels abound and bunnies
play hide and seek with the quail;
we know OF several sugar camps
promising delightful employment
for men and maIdens tins coming

of the Legislature claw then into
the State Keep?
We know Of country not remote
from Shawnee, where the gradual
wooded hills, the vernal slopes. the
winding valleys, glen and heather,
as beautiful IS any spot upon which
the barharic Norman ever set sport

dcSpoiled to the purpose of his re
taincr's pleasure. Why not estab-
lish a Kings or States Forest from a
section or so of land near Shawnee?
The Doctor is perhaps the states

present Legislature, the best suited
to midwife such measures rs this in
which game, the Abbot Rabbit are
prime factors, protected products. "

The types are not like loose tongue
expressions, lost and forgotten as
soon as uttered. LETERA sCRIPrA
MANEr w hat the types say is I'M
mortal. a cabling libeler may
cali . man a thief, 4 scoundrel. He
gets knocked down properly. He
takes it back, apologies, is for
given and the libel is forgotten.
Put that libel in PRINT and it can
never be washed out. 1t is bound
into book. 1t is a chapter in the
history of the people. 1t is part Of
the records of the county. 1t re-
MAINS to be flung in tile face of the
mans children, because it stands
there in cold type, forever against
him, before the eve of all genera
tions. Let the libel law stand as it
is. No editor ought to print per-
sonal charge against any man un-
Ill he knows it is true. His paper
is an awful power in the wrecking
of mems regulations. 1t is danger
ous for fools to triie with. Its eX-
presslohs, in the very nature of
things, are not aasty, careless, I'M
pulsiye vaporings of heat Of passion

the paper published, and ii Is only
those unworthy of the high calling,
only those who appreciate the awful
responsibility of the ''matter in

this sacred and potential profession.
The cross road "editor." the
Smart Alecks, who think it fun TO
get "joke" on an enemy, the
towards who are afraid TO fight
fair, are the only ones who are liable
to be punished by the libel law as it
stands. We have q case in mind
now, circumstance current, in
which the name of a man and the
repute of his family have been
handled about, traduced, outraood
with ass eming unoon e-n by cl
of editors and correspondents, as
reckless as gabbling, gossiping old
women at carpet rag cutting. The
old, long tongued hags gabble' and
make a heap of fuss, but they are
dismissed in contempt, their labels
forgotten. But the newspaper Is
carried about in side pockets, taken
out and read and treasured as
record against the libeled man,
whom the peddler of the gossip
hates. But with the libel law
amended, as proposed, and all the
smart editors, hgstIers tor news,

come out smiling, %, yes. we call

we ta;e it all back. Pray excuse

ed in imperishable print never to be
effaced, gone out to the world and
like the feathers cast to the winds
to fly with every storm, float in the
calm, never, no never, to be taken
back. The gentleman has no fear
of punishment for libel. ~ by

CHARITY
THE GREATEST OF ALL.
The Big Church of Logan.
AIMS, DEEDS FOR TIE POOR. THE
CHARITY DINNER.

The dinner given for the benefit
of the poor of Logan, on last Satur-
day, under the auspices of the HUI
name Society, and the Relief Com
mlttee was great success, not only
in financial receipts, but in the
grand display of Logan's generous
charity.
The committee appointed to can
vasS the town for contributions met
with liberal donations from every
one upon whom a call was made,
The committee, as appointed was
assisted in the work by earnest vol
unteef help, working not for reward
or human praise, but for the sake of
the good in the cause. The food
mai1ly was prepared at home, and
in the cooking was as excellent as
the most fastidlous could desire,
and the most hungry couid best rel
ish. Mr.. Brooke describes it best
in this language, "every article pre-
pared was fit for first premium
when good cooking was made the
subject for the prize" The cakes
were of all known kinds, and of
quality and finish to serve at a ban
quet to the highest of the lan!
The commodious improvised din
ing room was crowded for three
hours. Chairs for seating over one
hundred guests at n time. The
serving ladies were the good
matrons and handsome maidens of
our city; and in their polite atten-
ton, and pleasant manners, gave es-
perial relish to the varied and
abundant dinner furnished.
1t would he lnvidous to mention
any and not all the ladies who took
active part, when all did so well,
and to mention all who did take ac-
tive, earnest, useful part, would be
to give nearly q census of the Logan
ladies'. Mr.. A. II. Brooke, hair.
man of the Relief Committee, gave
especial attention 10 the general
management and to his constant eff
fort, his thoughtful attention much
of the order and business dispatch
is due. The other members of the
committee did excellent service, and
are as are all connected with the
work, entitled to highest praise.
Over four hundred took dinner.
4 lunch was served for supper
The proceeds amount to about two
hundred dollars. A detailed ard
official report Of the committee is
gwen elsewhere.
The chairs and table furniture
were furnished by the societies and
stores first asked. All the stores
and all the societies rendering such
articles as might be needed.
In the afternoon, considerable
amount of the provisions prepared
and not needed, which could not
we'll be preserved was sent to those
thought most in need. Flour c0f-
fee and other articles that can be
kept, will be distributed as occasion
demands.
Applications or suggestions for
relief can ne left with Mr.. a. II.
Brooke, chairman, who will bring
the matters before the society.
The dinner was one of those
manifestations that makes MS proud
of Logan. 1t is assurance that the
old spirit, the good heart, the willing
hand, the honest purpose, the sweet
charity of all the churches, abides
among us, and needs but proper oc-
casion to manifest by works the re
ligion as acceptable as prayer at the
throne of the kind Father of us all.
There is good in Lnean-''there's
life in the old land yet"

Our esteemed contemporary, the
BOYS industrial School Journal, is
soaring into lofty journalistic
heighths. It takes up the Pocock
matter, a fit subject for Sunday
school discussion in detail in q
Boys Reformatory. 1t pronounces
judgment upon the canal question
in opposition to the views of the
Governor, and the Ohio Legislature,
and the people of Logan, Having
settled the ceurse for truant officers
to purs#e by Bible quotations, CON
doned Pocock's expedition to Chi
cago, on Reform Farm morals and
decreed the abandonment of the
Hooking canal in the interests of his
father-n-law's "adjacent lands"
the editor viii do the readers of his
Journal great JOY if he will discuss,
as he certainly may know, how to
spell "Baker."
Having lost his holt. so to speak,
on the canal question, the Governor
and the Legislature pulling against
him, on the Coon Dog theory he
might be instructive in giving us a
thesis on the Uses of the Fine
Tooth Comb. At any rate while
great political questions are pend
ing the editor might be permitted a
vacation for brain rest, and given
job to saw wood, ssSog nix und 81
