The personal supporters of the
Star editor, whom he uses to run
his would-be political machine,
have lately been starving. because
their services as spies and thugs
in general has been dispensed
with, for the reason that the
royalists won't make revolution,
nay, not even conspiracy. To
regain the lost ground, the Star
contained a most fanciful yarn
that, large number of Canadian
partieipators in the Riel rebel
lion had arrived. imported here
by royalists who were paying for
their grub, The financially con-
dition of the Royalists is nearly
as bad as that of the Star stock
holders and We should be pleased
il the Star would furnish US with
the names and addresses of some
of the Royalists who are putting
up. And the Marshal believes
the yarn. swallows the bait and
empties the peoples treasury on
more spies and more specials.

A general boycott is believed
to have been ordered by the
Chinese magnates and directed
against people who are not with
them in the license and regis
tration acts now before the
councils. The Tim Murray
league will probably follow in
the footsteps of their illustrious
Oriental teachers to be followed
later on by the Portuguese Sun
day school politicians under the
leadership of Yivas, What a

ell have started by their original
boycott of people who were

AN lRTFUL DODGER.
The American League is
not ntl-Chinese.

The community has undeuiable
been under the impression that
the secret organization known as
the American Leagne wasdistinct-
ly favoring all the extreme and
ultra measures proposed BY our
Legislators against the Chinese
residents of this country We
have seen resolutions passed by
the League, as well as by the
Portuguese. encouraging and
demanding the steps which have
been proposed in the councils.
ostensible for the restriction of
Chinese immigration, but virtual
" for the humiliation, fnan-
cially and otherwise, of
every Chinese citizen who earns
living through his industry
here. 4 Chinese mass meeting
was called in which strong
protest was entered against the
proposed legislation and counter
meetings were held by the diff
ferent leagues insisting in said
legislation. Imagine our surprise
under these circumstances, while
we were perusing the last number
! of the Haigaiion Chinese Neacs, to
find the report of an alleged
interview between the President
Of the American League, Mr.
I. Murray and the editor of
the Chinese paper. OF course
we do not vouch for the
correctness of the published
interview, but it seems to have
been printed in good faith, 1t
is stated that Mr.. Murray called
at the office of the Chinese
/ journal, and stated that the
Chinese were laboring under a
mis- apprehension, if they thought
that he or the League harbored
any anti Chinese Sentiments in
their manly bosoms. That moth
ing which could give color to
such belief could be found on
the records of the League which
were opened to inspection if de-
sired. That the so-cailed Res
friction act before the councils did
not emanate from the League but
was the sole work of Messrs
". 0. Smith and J. Emmeluth.
That his (the speaker's) support
and business were mostly Deepen
dent on Chinese and he WASH
likely to advocate any measure
which would create for him the
ill-will of his patronizers.
This is what the Hd,gaiian
Chinese Ne,cs says in effect. Ii
would now be OF interest to the
white workingmen aud mechanics
who are members of the Ameri-
cad League to hear from Mr..
Murray and learn what really is
the stand of the provisional gov
ernment-supporting, gun-carry-
ing, self styled Americans who
are supposed to form the secret
league under his presidance.
Are they pro-Chinese or Anti
| Chinese?

The Boycott.

While the annexationists, as we
several times have referred to,
have organized complete boy
colt against their political OPP
ponents both in social, financial
and commercial matters, the
Royalists have heretofore not re-
taliated in any marked manner.
There is a lack of that vindic.
tive and revengeful feeling
among our party which is so
characteristic in and of the
missionary party that profess
to follow Christ. 1t may
be lack of energy, it may be a
truer spirit of liberal ideas, and
it may, in some instances, be a
better Interpretation of what is
believed to be Christianity which
has held the Hawaiians and
their friends back when common
Justice, and ordinary human ma
ture. would have encouraged them
to adopt severe measures as mat
ter of defense and retaliation. The
Chinese colony is better organ
lied. They are able and ready
Mt a moments notice, tc show
teeth and fight the men hostile to
them with their own weapons.
And the when Chinese
know that the Achilles
heel of an annexationist
is to be found in his purse, who
can blame them? Why should
the Chinese who spend their
hard earned dollars here buy their
goods from men who sit
in the councils of the
government and advocate and
support measures which mean in
justice, injury, yes. ruin to them.
If Mr.. Bolte, or Mr.. Morgan, or
Mr.. Suhr desire to adopt an anti
Chinese policy they are entitled
to do so, but why should they
wonder If the Chinese, protecting
their own interests follow a very
much ro-Chinese policy If the
Portuguese will denounce and
threaten the Chinese how can
they expect to receive their trade
or their patronagel If members
of the American League, say
like Magoon. Castle, and others
viii go on the stump and
on the, floor of the League to
support the objects and policy of
that organization can they. in
Justice, believe that the Chinese
will continue to fill their offices
and their coffers2 A great deal
of whining and complaining
reaches us on account of the
Chinese boycotting methods, all
we can say to the men of our race
who claim to be Christians is that.
1t serves them right because they
have forgotten the great and truly
Christian maxim do unto Others
asyou would that others shall do to
You" la the meantime we expect
to see Messrs. W. o. Smith and
Emmeluth drop their anti-Asiatic
notions as they would a hot
stove when it proves too heavy
for them.

A FAIR FUNERAL.
Hawaiian's Assist at the
Last Rites.

With the up-tongued roar of
the lions that slew him echoing
through the arena, simple but
thrillingly impressive funeral
service was held Feb. 10Th over
the remains of Carlo Thieman,
the animal-tamer, killed by the
wild beasts of Boone's show at
the Fair grounds. 1t was the
first and probably the last affair
of the kind that will ever take
place ON the Exposition grounds.
Every concession on the grounds
was represented and all the con-
cessional and other flags were
hoated at half mast during the
ceremony, which was, without
doubt, the most unique in the
history of the city. In the cen
ter of the iron cage, a portion of
which had been removed to make
way for it, stood the coffin, on
which lay the cap the dead man
had worn. The band that plays
for tie daily performances
in the arena was ushered to seats
at the back, and their stand above
the door given to the Iowa State
Band, which had volunteered its
services for the occasion.
Near these musicians were sta
toned the Pele Quartet from the
Hawaiian Village, which furnish
ed the vocal selections. The four
swarthy kanakas were clad in
white Watching suits. but no one
seemed to noticed the absence of
harmony between the customes
and the occasion. There were so
many strange features connected
with the funeral that none of
them appeared startling.
The service opened with the
hymn Nearer Ny God to Thee"
by the Hawaiian Quartet, to
which they fitted the words of
their native tongue After the
rendition of this sacrsd music.
Rev. W. c. Case of the Central
Methodist Episcopal Church de-
livered brief grafton, and then
delivered a short prayer. Then
the Iowa Band, stationed out of
sight of the.aadience softly play
ed The Wayside Chapel. -
which had u wonderfully soothing
effect on the savage animals.
During the rendition of the piece
the utmost silence prevailed in
the arena Another song by the
Hawaiian Quartet followed, and
then the company stood up while
Rev. DIR. Case pronounced the
benedietion. While the minister
was delivering his funeral Grafton
he was several times compelled
to stop. so great was the uproar
produced by the animals. Par
nell. the huge beast that man.
gled Thieman, broke in on the
exercises attimes with series Of
roars that shook the building.
Above the tumult could be heard
the thump OF the keepers club as
ne tried to quiet the king of
beasts.
