THEY BEAT a HAsrY RETREAT.
Three Burglars Vanquished by a Dem
yer Woman


DENVER, Nov. AIRS. J. D. Scott
wife of the proprietor OF the Capital Turf
Exchange, vanquished three burglars
who broke into her house last night after
a desperate fight, in which she was seri-
ously injured. One of the men was
armed with a revolver, another with a
slungshot, and third with billy. With
these weapons they rained blow after
blow upon her head, arms and body, but
she fought so energetically and raised
such an outcry that they beat retreat
without taxing any of the jewelry or
other valuables lying about. The bat
tie lasted nearly ten minutes, but
Mrs. Scott did not faint until
her assailants had gone. An honr
elapsed before she recovered sufficiently
to give an account of the affair, She is n
handsome woman of 45. six feet tall and
weighs 200 pounds. She was alone in the
house, lying in bed, when the burglars
assaulted her.

were issued by the Navy Department to-

which conducts the speed trial of the
Ericsson next Tuesday. These instruc-

ensigns Chaplin and Andrews as assist

The trial will be over a Twenty-Five

the boat is required by contract to make
speed Of twenty-four knots per hour.
The result will be watched
with interest and much doubt
is expressed by the engineers as to the
outcome. as the horsepower developed
by the main engines on the steam trial

THE following is the closing langu-
age of DR.. Briggs address before the
Union Theological Seminary OF New
York City, on Sept. 9th:
1.-THE cross, stained with the blood
drops of our Redeemer, is the most
sacred symbol Of our holy religion.
Let il crown all our churches! Let it
lead all our processionsI Let it be
worn on the hearts of all christian
peoplel But it Is precious, not be-
cause it points downward to death and
the grave, but because 1T ever points
upward to the living Christ, who was
lifted on that cross in order TO be lifted
thereby higher to his heavenly throne,
to reign there as the one Mediator be-
tween God and man, whose pierced
hands and feet and side-the scars OF
the cross-are the eternal pledges of
his victory over the law of sin and
death, and OF the justification, sancti-
fication and Qualification which he has
won for our race, and which he is gra-
ciously bestowing upon his kingdom"
The Evangelist speaks of the address
in the highest terms, and then says,
that DIR. Briggs is lone who has been
declared by the highest tribunals to be
unfit for the work of preaching the
gospel

A Chinese Proclamation.

The Chang Ngoi San Pc has
published a proclamation lately is
sued by the Governor Of Formosa,
Tsu, of which the following is a
brief translation: During the con-
tinuance of hostilities with Japan,
people, whether officials or ordinary
subjects, should always be on
strict watch. Should any Japan
csc vessels be seen approaching
this island or be discovered landing
on the surrounding shores with the
intention of making observations
on our military arrangements, peo-
pie should try their best to capture
or kill them, and they will certainly
be rewarded according to the fol-
lowing terms: For destroying an
ironclad 5000 taels, a small gun
boat 1000 taels, a sampan with
large crew 500 taels, sampan
with crew of one or two 400 taeis
for killing a high rank officer 200
taels, for killing a private 100
taels. Good compensation will be
paid to the relatives of any killed
in the struggle against Japan. Peo-
pie are cautioned to closely distin-
quish between Europeans and Jap
anese before commencing hostile
operations, the former, who have
nothing to do with these hostilities,
being protected by our Government.

MIssTATEMEETS.

The article published in the San
Francisco Chronicle, Of the 21st
ult., and republished by US,
regarding the intention of the
Hawaiian planters does not con-
tain the truth. 1t states that the
planters have adopted the policy OF
anti.annexation, and of a protecto-
rate only, 80 as TO maintain the
present labor system. The re-
marks of Mr.. Baldwin, lately pub
lished in this paper, show the con-
trary TO be true, so far as he, a lead
ing planter, is concerned. As to
the other planters, while we cannot
speak for them, and have had no
special communication with them,
we believe that they are gradually
taking Mr.. Baldwin's view OF the
situation. Many of them, with
whom the labor question ls one OF
"life or DEATH" hesitate to adopt
any policy, and are freely and I'M
wisely criticized by those who have
nothing to lose, whatever events
may be. Being away from the
scene of action, in this city, they
have trusted the guidance OF
affairs to representatives here, and
have in no way, created any antago-
nisms. There are Of course some
very foolish and short-sighted men
among them, as there always are,
in every community. While there
has been a great influx of Asiatic
labor, for plantation work, all
classes in the community, without
exception, have had the advantage
of it, directly or indirectly, and 1T
is the profit and returns OF this Ia
Dor which has brought to these ISL
ands so many mechanics, and
whites. The whole labor system
needs reconstruction, and this can
be done only, by cooperation, and
intelligent work. The statements
made by the Chronicle are not true,
though they contain some truth.
Such statements abroad, make it
very necessary to pull together
here.

FULL DISCUSSION.

There was a rumor on the street,
Yesterday, that the publication of
the Star will be discontinued. We
should regret such an event. Every
phase of political thought should
be represented by the press. We
need light, not darkness. The ex-
tremists, or those who put the need
of annexation before the need of
the Republic, without regard to
consequences, should continue to
be, as they now are, represented
by the Star. The planters, who
oppose annexation, as extremists
of the opposite character, should
have journal of their own, as they
have none now. Those who be-
lieve that the industrial and plant
ing interests should work together,
at ell hazards, in the solution of
our difficult problems those who
believe in the supreme need of po-
litical union, and deny the charge,
made by the enemies of political
union, that the people of these isl-
ands are not fit for such union, be-
cause the Republic cannot stand
alone; all Of those persons will
find in the ADVERTISER an ex-
preston of their views.
4 full, fair and honest discussion
of questions Is the sore need of the
hour. Discussion cannot be sup
pressed. But debate, which in
wolves kicking, yelling and biting
at opponents, will do no good what
ever.
The questions are serious, vital.
and involve the bread and butter Of
some thousands of people There
are deep-seated evils in the planta-
ton labor system, as II exists here,
which must be removed before
we can have good civilization.
No individual planter created
them but finds them here
IN the other hand, the white
;ndustrial interest is dependant, at
nresent, on the planting interest
another evil. The white me-
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1894-11-02

chanic, or merchant, did not create
it, but finds it. Both interests must
work together in order TO remedy
these evils. Are these problems To
be solved by mutual recrimina-
tons ? An intelligent American
naval commander said, here, not
long ago, eff the non-planting
whites and the planters get each
other by the ears, the royalists Will
have a chance" The full and con-
siderate expression Of divergent
views is instructive. In the end,
it brings unity. "There are hum
dred wrong ways of doing thing.
There is only one right way of
doing it," said Walpole. We must
find the right way.
The political quarrels of good
citizens make the carcass on which
the political buzzard feeds. A little
quarrel about an opera box, In Paris,
involved France in an expense of
millions of money forced her into
a humiliating retreat from Mexico,
and caused the execution Of Maxi
MILAN.
We hope that the Star, under
reasonable restriction as to exhi-
billions of temper, will not be dis
continued, but will continue to pre-
sent the ideas of those who we may
term extremists, without using the
word Extensively.
