THE REPLY TO CLEVELAND.

The dignity as well as the JUS
tice of the Provisional cause has
been lifted before the American
people and the world by the re-
markable State paper i'll which
President Dole has replied to the
recent demands of President Cleve-
land. The document is written i'll
the best of temper, and its power
of analysis, the number and value
of its citations from American au-
thorities and presidents, the con-
illusions to which it leads in logical
sequence and in dispassionate
phrase, the appeal it makes to the
honor Of the American republic and
its firm but courteous refusal to
yield to the coercive policy of Mr..
Cleveland, combine to make ii
worthy of the great cause in whose
behalf it has been penned. There
is that in this deliverance which
might have been spoken in
Faneuil Hall or written under
the Liberty bell at Philadelphia
in the old times when Americans
themselves were the victims OF
arbitrary power 1t must, by its
accord with the ancient creed OF
the republic, awake a response
among the American people which
will long echo and re-echo among
the memories of a critical and
historic period. Our countrymen
in the old home will be the prouder
of Hawaii and Hawaiians because
of the craftsmanship which Presi-
dent Dole's reply embodies. We
are the prouder for that reason
