NECEAR ISLAND.

No doubt the British Colonial
statesmen feel badly, because Ha-
waii emphasized her ownership of
Neckar Island, By taking posses
sion Of 1t, and they call that act an
unfair thing to do" If Great
Britain had taken ii, Hawaii would,
probably, have said the same thing,
while the British Government
would merely have patted the lit
tie Republic on the back and said,
Next time, little sister, wake up
earlier While our treaty obliga-
tons with the United States may
not permit Us to release any Of our
soil to another nation, We are, prob
ably, free TO permit the landing Of
the Canadian cable here, if it is de-
sired.
Jnder some circumstances, the
permanent independence Of Ha-
Esii, would Be better than anrexa-
ton. for if We could maintain an
independent free port here, for the
commerce Of all nations, it would,
probably, bring vastly more money
and prosperity into the country,
than it Boald, if under some re-
stricted policy of the United States.
But our policy Of annexation IS de-
clared, and We must adhere to it.
Evidently, the feeling in England
Is, that any Canadian cable, which
may be landed here, will ulti-
mately fall under the jurisdiction
ofthe United States. British states
men believe that the political bridge
Is being built

The NATIVES on HAWAII.

One who has returned from the
island of Hawaii, states that, after
making very many inquiries of the
natives, during a period of two
months, he reached the conclusion
that the natives are indifferent to
the interests of the ex- queen.
While many of them would like as
matter of sentiment, to have native
rule restored, the great majority
are Indifferent to the Kalakaua dy-
nasty, for reasons which have been
repeatedly given. Regarding reg
istration, the natives do not take
any especial interest in it, on prin-
ciple, any more than they have, in
preceding years, taken any inter
est in the principles of good gov
eminent. But they would now
register, if they felt that they could
safely do so. The literary bureau
of the royalists constantly sends to
Hawaii and other islands fervent
appeals on behalf of the monarchy,
and, what is Of very aerious impor-
lance to the natives, positively tells
them that the restoration is at
hand, through the physical inter-
ference Of either America, Great
Britain VI France. Some of the
bulletins do not specify the agency,
through which it will be done, but
fatty state that the ex-queen's
party know what it is about, and
that if the natives will only
wait little longer, they will see
the restoration, but that if they
register, it will bring certain and
severe punishment to those who do.
1t Is not Wise, polite or chari-
table for us to eensure the natives
for taking this view. These sim
pie children Of the tropics cannot
sift cut the truth from conflicting
and positive statements They
learn only by object lessons, and
learn slowly at that.

ANARCHISTS.

Ths popular governments Of

Of their laws against anarchist
crimes i recent law Of the

THg PRINCES KAIULASI.

Many Of Us have only tender re-
grsts that this accomplished young
woman will not have conspicuous
place in Hawaiian history. There
Is much that is pathetic, and might
even be romSntic, IN hsr situation.
She Is. without fault OF her own,
the sufferer from the immutSble
laws Of human development. So
have been scores Of Princes and
Princssses, during the last hundred
years in the political development
Of Europe. She Is not slone, but
Joins that large and conspicuous,
bu, SD caravan Of royal person
zges who have lost their high
! places owing 10 the growing
thoughts Of men. Revolutions have
not slwsys treated such persons
with consideration. The innocent
suffer. One recalls the incident Of
the battle Of Gravelotte. where the
German b2ttalions touched their
hats to the sweet young peasant girl
Of France as they passed her door
10 the bloody fight beyond, where
their own guns might wound or
kill her father Or lover. The most
q Us hope that the sharp winds
Of revolution will no: visit her too
roughly.
IF she has true heroism. il viii
develop under these trying cireum-
stances. If she meets her fate with
81 equal, and sweet temper, and
msintains her dignity in her days
Of misfortune, she viii be loved by
even those who built 8 solid wall
across her pathway TO the crown,
because they believed that the
monarchy was no longer useful.
Il Is, perhaps, unfortunate that
she remains abroad in the care Of
s man not over wise in dealing
with political problems, but this
fact only makes demand for
greater charity from those who
cannot accept any retrOgrade move
ment in political matters, but can,
and viii appreciate, true woman
hood.
Though, at times, = tear may
touch her pillow, as her mind
wanders away in girlish dreams Of
: lost jeweled diadem, she may
still remember that she has the
power 10 become crowned in the
hearts Of our people, and that We,
all Danes in our welcome Of thee
viii see 70 i, that she shall never
suffer, and, in the end, find greater
comfort and pleasure in life than
# the little crown of Hawaii had
vexed her youthful brow.

THE HUMANE SOCIETY.
Miss Helen Wilder Elected Presi-
dent Of the Association.

An adjourned meeting of the res
idents of the city interested in the
prevention of cruelty to man and
beast was held in the parlors OF the
Y. NJ. c. Association last evening.
A canvass of those present before
the meeting was called to order
showed those present were thor
oughly in accord with the objects
of the organization and willing to
lend aid and assistance to further
the objects of the society.
Mr.. W. \. Armstrong, the chair
man, called the meeting to order
and stated in succinct terms the
aims and motives Of the associa-
ton to be chiefly for the public
good, in an endeavor to educate
the masses to more proper treat
ment of dumb animals, an educa-
ton perhaps not so much needed
amongst the people in Honolulu as
on the other islands. By request,
and on motion, the constitution
and bylaws Of the formerly exist
ing Humane Society of Honolulu
were read by Mr.. Daniel Logan
and adopted. On motion of Mr..
Armstrong the nomination and
election of officers was proceeded
with.
Mr.. d. Logan, in neat introduce
tory speech, nominated Miss Helen
Wilder for the position of presi-
dent. Mr.. Armstrong seconded the
nomination, which was carried
amid enthusiasm, the lady being
regarded as an active and ener-
getic worker for the good of the
cause.
Miss Wilder, in accepting the
position and duties of the office,
said there were others present more
capable to fill the position, but
somebody must accept the Office
and set the ball rolling in the di-
rection desired. Her endeavor
would be to carry cut the objects of
the society to the best of her abili-
ty. The other officers proposed
and elected were as follows:
1st Vice-President, w. W. Hall.
2d Vice-President, Geo. II. Paris.
Secretary, d. w. COrbett.
Treasurer, A Forbes.
Veterinary Surgeon, DR.. A. r.
Rowat
The position of agent of the So
oiety was, On motion of Mr.. Arm
strong, left to the decision of the
Board of Management. In this
connection Captain Andrews sug-
gested the advisability of careful
consideration in the matter of fill
ing such office. More could be ac-
complished by naming a person
who had discretion and judgment.
Mr.. r. ]. Greene was recommended
by Mr.. Logan and ]. J. Sullivan for
the position, his capabilities and
experience being highly extolled.
On motion of Mr.. Logan, second
ed by Mr.. Armstrong, Miss Carrie
Castle and Mr.. R. Jay Greene were
appointed members of the Execu-
tive Committee.
Remarks in accord with the OBJ
jects of the organization were made
by Messrs. r. Jay Greene, ]. ].
Mcdonald, DR.. Rowat and others,
the tenor of which tended toward
an earnest intention to forward
with energy the aims of the HUI
name Society.

LECTURE ON HAWAII.
W. G. Smith SpeakeS for Two Hours
at San Diego.

The lecture on Hawaii, past and
present, delivered by Walter G..
Smith at the Naval reserve armory
last night, says the San Diego Sun
of September 18th, was of great in
terest and high literary merit. Mr..
Smith spoke rapidly for nearly two
hours, and the close attention paid
by his audience was not for a min
ute broken. His review of the early
history of the Islands was compre-
hensiyely and POLITICALLY expressed.
His description of the manners and
customs Of the people were enter
tanning and diverting. His vim
dication of the course of Americans
in Honolulu with reference to the
new order Of things was complete,
and he presented an array of facts
that appealed irresistabIy to the
patriotic sentiment of his audience.
He declared that the flag of the
Hawaiian Republic would never
be lowered except to be placed by
the flag Of the United States. when
the Islands are received into this
nation.

PENSION FRAUDS IN AMERICA.

The pension frauds" existing
in the United States are the most
extensive public frauds of modern
times. In 1870, General Garfield
stated in Congress that the extreme
call by the pension list. for funds,
would be about S25,0O0,000 per
annum, and that it would then
decrease. The list rose to S90.0C0,-
600 in 1921. At these figures,
dearly thirty years after the war, it
exceeded the annual cost of any
one Of the great standing srmies
ofEurope, largely exceeding the cost
Of maintaining the German army of
half million of men. The last APP
preparation now calls for S150,0O0,-
000-nearly enough to support the
great armies Of both France and
Germany.
In nearly every town in the
States, men are known, who have
fraudulently obtained pensions.
Systematic perjury is committed
everywhere in procuring them.
Curiously enough, public opinion
is dead on the subject. In the
small towns, the citizens prefer TO
have Migrants or inebriated veter-
ans saddled on the Government,
rather than be subjected themselves
to town tax, in order to support
