THE ELECTION

The first election under the pres
emit Government will take place to.
morrow. its object being to choose
suitable men for the Constitutional
Convention. The American Union
party presents five candidates and
six are running independently, one
of these claiming to be also a regu-
lar party nominee. Under the
cumulative ballot system each
American Union candidate will
expect one and oue-htth votes to
the end that six votes may be cast
for the FIVE. This is complicated
and to some extent annoying, but
it will, if followed out, improve the
chances Of election Of the FIVE regu-
lars and that is, of course, the main
consideration from party stand
point.
While there are some very good
men with very good claims among
the independent nominees, the
STAR inclines to the regular ticket
because ID the candidates are bound
to a distinct platform and can be
held to its terms if elected; I'D be-
cause most Of the opposing candi-
dates are pledged to nothing in
particular except to be elected II
they can get enough votes and are
comparatively unestimated factors
in the deliberative body which will
have the duty in hand of changing
the organic law.
1t is highly important withal that
those who have registered should
vote so as to record, conclusively
the reliable and available balloting
strength of the Honolulu anneXa
tiouists.

sEDITIOUs CHARACTERS.

It would bean uncommonly good
thing for Hawaii if men like Joseph
Nawahi could be expelled from the
country and kept out Of it until
they should show fruits meet for
repentance. As will be seen in a
private letter printed elsewhere,
Nawahi has been writing promises
of restoration, either by England or
America, to deluded natives in the
other Islands, thus keeping them
away from the registry and in a
ferment of political unrest. Other
demagogues, drawing inspiration
from him and such as he, are using
threats that, if natives show any
liberation Of the legal claims of the
Provisional Government, their
names will be taken down and used
as the basis Of a prosecution after
wards.
In the United States during the
reconstruction period such malcon-
tents would have quickly found
themselves in the Old Capital Jail
without benefit Of clergy. They
would have been simply treated as
enemies of the public order and
either held in restraint or run out
of the country until the settlement
of domestic troubles had ended
their power to do harm. A SINH
lar, though more drastic process,
has prevailed and still prevails in
European countries. 1t is almost
everywhere recognised that a sedi-
tious agitator like Nawahi should
be restrained as much as an in
cendiary or lunatic, both of which,
it may be said, the Honolulu Val
landigham resembles.
It was the purpose of the Dan
gerous Persons Act to cover such
cases as that of Nawahi; and it is
rather a pity, all things considered,
that the Act was so framed as to
arouse opposition to it in our own
camp. The clause about throwing
the burden of the proof upon the
defendant offended the Anglo-Saxon
sense of fair play, and the bill was
pigeon-holed. There it remains.
Doubtless it could be taken out,
suitably amended and passed into
law, with the result that it would |
amply cover such cases as
Nawahis and at the same time not .
initiate against the rights of any
innocent person.
1t should be ever kept in mind
that Hawaii is great powder mag,
azine and that any man who runs
about with a torch or tries to get
somebody else to is a dangerous
person who has no right to be at
arge. Every act that serves to
Keep alive the Royalist hope in the
breast of the native or to rekindle
lis hatred oft Provisional Govern
nent, is in the nature of political
and should be stopped. !
There are plenty of American pre-
.edents for the use of the iron hand v
II times of seditious interference c

HAWAII AT PEACE.
Some of the Natives Refuse to Take
the Oath of Allegiance.

San Francisco, July 29.-The steamship
Australia arrived yesterday morning, six
and one-half days from Honolulu, bring
ing Hawaiian advices to July 81. Peace
prevails throughout Hawaii and the new
government appears to be firmly estab-
lished.
The jury system under the new consti-
tuition is causing some trouble in the
country districts. The constitution re-
duires all the Jurors to take the oath of
allegiance to the new republic and to
abiure all help in restoring the monarchy
in any form. In one country district it
has been impossible to get enough jurors
to serve, the Honolulu royalsts having
sent out a circular stating that no an
swer had yet been received as to Presi-
dent Cleveland intended action, and
warning the natives to keep out of poll
tics and TO take no oaths of allegiance
Even the most ardent rOSaliSts have
little hope that the commission recently
sent TO Washington will be able to accom-
plish anything in ex-Queen Lilioukalani's
behalf
One evidence of the public faith in the
new government was shown just before
the steamer sailed; $40, 900 of government
bonds. that previous to the adoption of
the new constitution had gone begging at
9S. were easily disposed of at par

ing-No One Killed and but Few In
jured.
Belle Plaine, Ia, July 29.-The cry of
fire was heard throughout the town late
yesterday afternoon. The citizens soon
had the fire apparatus out, but owing to
the engines steaming slowly the flames,
which had started in the roof of a livery
stable and were famed by strong west
wind, had leaped across the street
into the business part Of the
city, were soon beyond the
control of the firemen. 1t was impossible
to stop the spread of the flames with the
apparatus on hand, and kilograms were
sent TO Cedar Rapids and Tama, but by
O'Clock the business portion of the town,
with the exception of three buildings, was
in ashes
OVER SIXTY BUILDINGS BURNED.
In all over sixty buildings aud business
concerns were burned out, with loss of
S45O,000, with Sl50,000 insurance. The
largest are as follows: Greenlee opera
house, Herring hotel, Sweat & Rusk,
hardware j. G. Blue, dry goods; w. II.

and Offices j. p. Herrin, lumber.
Several dwellings and their contents
were also destroyed.
The Burley is the only hotel left stand
ing, and it was saved only by a fortur ate
change of the wind.
So far as known no one was killed and
but few injured.
This is a severe blow TO Belle Plaine and
1t is grave question whether 1t will be
rebuilt completely.

THIS WEEK IN CONGRESS-.
An Agreement on the Tariff Bil
Looked For.

Washington, July 29-The torrid heat
is aiding the tariff compromisers. The
extremists find their obstinacy willing
with their shirt collars. Senator Jones,
who has held the laboring oar on the
tariff bill on the Senate side ever since it
left the House, is fairly confident that an
agreement OF some sort will be reached
this week. Whether the debate, which
will then follow, will be brief or indef-
nitely protracted, will depend entirely
upon the nature of the report presented
by the conferees.
Omitting the tariff bill from the calcu-
ations as to what may take place, there
is every indication that the end of the
week will see all the appropriation bills
safely out OF the way. MIR. Cockrell,
chairman of the senate committee on ap-
propriations, expects to get the sundry
civil bill-that vehicle which carries ev-
erything not otherwise provided for-out
OF the committee room by Monday night
TO be reported Tuesday morning. He will
call it up at once for consideration. He
then expects to have the deficiency bills
in such shape that he can follow the sun
dry civil bill with it when needed. This
will complete the appropriation bills, and
leave the Senate free to discuss the tariff
or TO threaten adjournment if delays are
interposed
1t may be that the Chinese treaty will
get its day in court, but there does not
appear to be much interest in treaties
just now, and this particular treaty seems
to have more active enemies than friends.
IN THE HOUSE.
Drifting is the only word that will now
accurately describe the condition of af-
fairs in the House of Representatives. All
OF the business which the managers feel
1t is in any wise or essential for
record purposes to pass at this session Of
Congress has already been disposed Of
and they are now simply waiting on
the conference committees 20 give them
an opportunity to settle the differences
between the two branches over those
measures upon which the House has al
ready once passed. No programme has
been arranged for the next week, further
than that Wednesday will be devoted to
the MOOre-k'unston contested election
case from Kansas. MIR. Moore is a demo
crat seeking TO get MIR. Funston's seat,
and the majority of the committee have
reported in his favor.
A meeting of the committee on rules
will be held Monday morning to decide
what committees shall have the sessions
Of Monday and Tuesday for the consider
alton Of business. The Indian and naval
committees will probably be the favored
ones. The other days in the week will
be apportiOned later, If il shall then be
found desirable TO continue the policy of
parcelling out the time.
The programme is always subject to in
terruption by conference reports, and
there are six appropriation bills, beside
the tariff bill, which are likely at any
time to come in and vary the proceedings

THREE BOYS sUFFooArEp.
They Hid in Closet in Caboose and
Perished

Hartford, Conn, July 29,-The three
Guyan children, who strayed awav from
their home on Broad street, this city,
Thursday afternoon have been found, and
all three are dead. Chief of Police Bill
gave orders this morning that all cars
ABOUT the depot and the freight yards be
thoroughly searched. A few minutes
after 10 O'Clock policemen who
mad been searching cars in the
yard Of the New York, New Haven and
Hartford railroad for about two hours,
came TO caboOse from which sickening
odors came. They burst open the door,
ana the stencil, which had been strong
before, became almost overwhelming
Keeping on at their work of investiga-
ton, the officers traced the smell to the
closet which the trainmen use as a
clothes press, and, breaking open the
doors, they found the three little bodies,
naked and mangled by rats.
PILED ON TOP OF EACH OTHER.
Freddie, the 4-year-old boy, lay at the
bottom. On him was Raymond, years
old, and on top of both was LeRoH, 2
years old. Under the three bodies were
the few garments the boys wore when
they left home. At the autopsy this af-
ternoon nothing was found to indicate vio-
lence. The condition of the lungs indi-
Gated death by suffocatIon, and the D.
sence of effusion and other marks about
the neck precluded the suspicion of
strangulation.
The theory is that the little fellows ran
into the car TO hide from passing police
man Thursday afternoon, and that the
door Of the closet swung TO and caught
them with the spring lock The closet is
five feet high and its floor space is 28 by
10 inches. 1t is impossible that the little
boys could have lived long in such
a confined space, and the doctors
think they became unconscious in about
fifteen minutes, and that they did not
live more than fifty minutes after the
door was locked on them. 1t is supposed
that the three boys had taken oil their
clothes to play going in swimming, as that
idea was in their minds when they left

CRINA's PLAGUE.
Superstition Running Wild Among
the Natives at Canton.

Superstition Running Wild Among
the Natives at Canton.
Washington, July 29.-Several reports
regarding the plague in China have been
received at the marine hospital bureau.
Secretary DENLY of the United States
legation says that at Canton novel and
thoroughly Chinese method of checking
the disease was hit upon. A fortune
teller having given out that the
plague would die away with the
people in Canton, in order to
deceive the gods Of sickness, made the
first day of the fourth moon May 81
their New Years day. Every ceremony
by which the day is celebrated was gone
through with exactitude. The local au-
thorities assisted in this farcical per-
formance. The New Years festivities, in
the presence of such widespread death,
had IA somewhat ghastly character.
LACK OF A WATER SUPPLY.
Consuls writing from Canton say that
everything continues in wild confusion.
Business is almost suspended. Death is
in all parts of Canton. The United States
consul at Canton has remained at his post
through the whole plague, and says that
If there were means for securing a supply
of pure water for cooking and washing
and for flushing the drains in time of
drought, there should be no such thing
as this plague, except where native
in congested localities, create pollution
of the air by overcrowding and violation
of sanitary laws. During all of this
plague, heather professions have con-
stantly marched through the streets of
Canton throughout the night, pounding
gongs, exploding fire crackers, exposing
idols and other similar doings, supported
by contributions from the shops and
stores, to propitiate the evil spirits and
disperse the adverse elements.

New York, July 29.-The building at
the southwest corner Of Fulton and Gold
streets, and numbered from 50 to IS Full
ton street, was Quilted by fire this after
noon. This building was occupied
by various firms, including two
manufacturers Of chemicalsO articles,
some of which added largely to the
spread of the flames. Five alarms were
sent out in quick succession, bringing
twenty-five engines and two water tow
ers to the scene. After about two and n
half hours hard work the firemen sue
ceeded in getting the fire under control.
Tine loss will amount to about $l5000O,

D1sT1LLERs IN A BAD BOX.
An Attempt to Dodge Taxes May End
in Confisoation.

IN OOuuBChLlOu.
Baltimore, Md, July 29.-Eour thous-
and barrels of whisky may be confs-
Gated by the federal government as the
result Of an attempt to avoid the payment
of a 600 or S5, 600 taxes, says morning
paper. 1t is alleged that a local distill-
ing firm a few days ago made applica-
tion for the release from a government
warehouse of 1000 barrels of whisky.
The sample barrels which the gauger
tried showed only fraction above proof
and he became suspicious Other bar
rels were found to vary far from the sam
pies, and always at q much higher show
ing. The gauger, becoming satisfied that
the sample barrels had been "doctored,"
to avoid the payment Of the higher tax,
reported the case to Collector of Internal
Revenue Vandiver, and he, IL
is stated, yesterday laid the
case before Secretary Carlisle. If the
secretary orders the collector to exact the
highest penalty fixed by the revenue laws
for violations, one of the largest dis
tilleries in the Baltimore district will be
closed. its product now in bond confs-
Gated and sold by the government, and
the owners rendered liable to fine and i'm
prisonment.
