THE BAND AT THE FAIR.

The native band has an excel
lent opportunity to make some
money and a good time at the
Midwinter Fair. All they have to
to is to accept the very handsome
offer which has been made them
by the Cyclorama Company. The
band however, sets its services at
an exorbitant figure, which puts
an arrangement entirely out of the
question. In this transaction of
course the native band is led by
its enemies against the advice of
it's friends, as it has been ever since
the revolution. It remains in the
elusive expectancy of a profit which
will never assume material shape.
The band boys cannot 60 to the
Fair because they have an engage
ment to play the Republic out and
the Monarchy in.
1t being settled then that a pre-
vious engagement will keep the
native band here until the MEM
bers are hoary with age, we think
the Government should send its
own band to the Fair. A vacation
has been fairly earned. The band
will not in some respects be as
good an advertisement for Hawaii
as the other, but in other respects
it will be better. 1t represents the
existing Government for one thing,
and stands for fact, net baseless
dream.
We are assured that the Cyclic
rama Company stands ready to de-
fray the expenses of the band both
ways, and to provide for the sup
port of the members while in San
Francisco.
Send the band along.

THE question is asked how it
happened that Minister Stevens
constantly gave she ex-queen good
advice if he was plotting to de-
throne her? One of the greatest
grievances of the royalist faction is
that Mr.. Stevens insisted on giving
the ex-1ueen good advice, which
she did not want to hear. There ia
no question whatever that if she
had taken the advice which the
American Minister gave her, she
would never have lost her throne.

THE NEW YEEa AND ITs PROSPECTS.

The year which has just closed
has brought great triumphs to the
cause of progress in Hawaii. What
is the ortlook for 1894?
In reply, it may be said that the
outlook depends upon ourselves. Ii
we have a spirit worthy ofour cause,
'94 will bring us blessings to match
those of'93. If we are weak-spirited
or craven, if we lose faith In our
selves and in the future, if we yield
to the promptings of timid resolu-
ton and compromise, the outcome
will be what we shall have richly
deserved. The history OF the past
wear gives basis of fact for pre-
diction, and it justifies the roslest
anticipations for the future.
In the first place there will be no
restoration. None by royalists here
and none by foreign intervention.
The power of the United States will
not be used to restore monarchy
of any sort, least of all OF the sort
lately subverted in these islands.
The United GATES is the friend,
not the foe of civilization, and
whatever personal alterations Mr.
Cleveland may be guilty OF, 1t is
safe to assume that Congress Will
not follow him. There is an e.''1
to the royalist expectation OF armed
assistance from without.
The Government has as little to
fear from an armed uprising from
within. Such an attempt is moi
likely to be made, and, if made
would bring nothing but fresh
strength to the Government and
disaster to the promoters OF sedl
ten.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1894-01-02

While it is net impossible that
the close Of the year may see Ha-
waii under the American fiag, such
q contamination is unlikely. 1t is
not the part of wisdom or good
Judgment TO entertain or to sncour-
age hopes In this regard. The
problem before the loyal supporters
OF the Government 10 to msintain q
permanent government until an-
nexation il finally secursd, a. it
surely will be, sooner or later. As to
the best method of dealing with this
problem there may be, and doubt
less are, differences Of opinion,
which it 10 no part of our present
purpose to discuss. We will not
crsss the bridge till we come to it.
But there are clear heads, and
loyal hearts and willing hands in
plenty at the Governments service,
and there need be no fear that this
problem will not be solved as readi-
ly as others have been before it.

The future then, is bright. Itis
bright chiefly because the time has
come when the white population of
Hawaii: and the saving remnant
of the aboriginal population, will
no longer submit to the rule of o
monarchy which is corrupt, react
ionary and heathenish, and which
10 out of touch with the tendencies
Of the age. The future is bright
because the best and strongest of
part Of the nation has rejected the
authority of any sovereignty except
of those
'sDead and sceptred sovereigns who
still rule
Our spirits from their urns"
the heroes of the struggle fer liber-
ty in England and the United
States, and our forefathers. The
present seems always common
place, aud it is hard to find in its
lineaments the meaning which has
made the past 80 glorious. None
the less, the same meaning is
there, and on the little stage
of Hawaii the same drama is
being unrolled which was enacted
on a larger scale by the thirteen
American colonies a hundred years
ago. 1t is just as romantic to resist
the aggression of Liliuokalani, as it
was to resist the aggression of King
George, to rise up against viola
ton of the fundamental law, as to
rise up against a tax on tea. Our
ancestors were just as harassed by
timid weak-spirited tories then, as
we are by men of the same moral
quality now. They triumphed over
enemies without and within, as we
must. And if We play our parts as
they played theirs, the event of
this long struggle will be as glori-
GUS, as full of hope and progress
and prosperity for Hawaii, as was
the event of that five years strug-
gle for our fathers.
The best part Of the battle has
already been won. We intended
that - days of corruption in high
place, of insolent usurpat.cn on the
one hand and slavish sycophancy
on the other, should cease; that
an era of justice and liberty, of
"sweeter manners and purer laws"
should begin; that the physical
beauty of external nature, the noble
outlines of our mountains, the lus-
tire of air and sea, should be no
longer in glaring contrast to the
meanness of our national life, but
as in Greece, fitting setting to the
lives of freemen. We intended In
particular that Hawaii should be a
good place ''to bring our children
up in," place in which high spir-
tied boys would not be taught by
lessons in English and American
history at school, to blush for the
degeneracy of their fathers at home.
Only year ago the hope of such
a day in Hawaii seemed dream,
"the baseless fabric of vision. ="
but now the fullness of its light is
with Us.
Our readers will pardon a quo
tation, familiar, but never trlte:
Ring out q slowly dying cause,
And ancient forms of party STRIFE
Ring in the nobler modes OF life,
With sweeter manners, purer laws.
Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring, happy bells, across the snow
The year is going, let him go.
Ring out the false, ring in the true.

Inc greetings from other denomina-
tlons were next in order, the first intro
duced being Rev. g. D. Lindsay, repre-
sentative of the Maine Methodist Episco-
pal Conference. He commended highly
the work of the Baptist denomination,
and congratulated the convention upon
IL. There was similarity in the beliefs
and aims of the Method lists and Baptists
and the grand objects of each were the
same. There is never any danger that
you will find in Baptist minister any
new tangled ideas as to salvation. The
ploughshare of conversion are deep with
the old heroes of your denomination,
and their influence is all powerful with
you now. Your ministers, like ours, be-
lieve that the devil is not yet dead and
must be fought every day. The Baptists
andsthe Methodists are conseryators of
the Christian faith. Rev. Mr.. Haley,
the Methodist church. Rev. Mr.. Cate
brought the greetings of the Free Will
Baptist Conference of Maine.
Rev. DR.. l., Jenkins, of State street
Congregational church, represented the
Congregational body of Maine. He said
he had forgotten to brng the minutes of
his church, and in fact had not thought
very much about what he should do.
But it had come dimly across his mind
that he ought to praise the BapJists
Laughter. But after hearing all that
had been said he had concluded that no
more praise was needed, If the conven-
tion could stand all that had been said
to it, its members were better people
than he thought them to be. He thought
our religious walk should be about Zion
and not on one side of it. 1t did not oc-
cur to him to consider the Congregation
al body Of Maine as on one side of Zion.
DR.. Jenkins paid humorous compliments
to the Methodists, and then went on to
say that in the walks about Zion there
could be found on the walls little
notch where the Congregationalists are.
They had been told that the Methodists
and Baptists were the conservators of
religious grace; and he hardly knew
what to say about the Congre CATION
alists. But the Importance of earthly
vessels should be remembered. The things
pulling down the things that are.
Laughter. There might be after all a
place for the small body which he repre-
sented. All denominations are getting
inward. Many things that were thought
the kernels are found to sbe only the
paragement of any denomination. The
Conaregationalists of Maine have place
in the great work that is going on in
this State. We want to see the chariot
wheels move along, and if we cannot
do it we want to see others succeed.
Just as far as the mighy Baptist folk
make the wheels of the Gospel chariot
move, just SO far are we with the Baptist
brethren to the end.
President W. Dew. Hyde, of Bowdoin,
spoke of the Interdenominational work
in Maine.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
There was good attendance at the OPP
ening of the convention in the AFTER
noon, when devotional exercises were
conducted by Rev. Il. K. Drew.
At 2.15 p. M, the convention was
called to order by Judge Bonney, and
the first business was the report of the
treasurer. Mr.. C.F. Morse of Portland.

DIR. Dunn, in behalf of the trustees,
reported. In his report he said:
For the fifth time in the history of this
body we are called together in this
gooddly city of Portland. to share th e
fellowship and hospitality of those
whose prayers and aims have come ac-
ceptably before God during the thr ZEE
score years and ten of the life of the con-
vention. According to the records. in
1885, 1857, 1870 and 1885, this convention
met with these churches, the first and
third dates with this church, the sec
ond and fourth with the Free street
Baptist. OF the ordained ministers and
delegates who met here fifty-nine years
ago, not one remains in the state, and of
the 50 ordained ministers reported here
"a years ago, only II are now living in
the state, and only six are in the pas
torate. The last year has seen it's share
of the changes, and the death of Rev. G.
P. Matthews DID,, one of the Oldest
and most valued mem bers land Revs. W.
C.Ayres, e. H. Bartlett, g w. Davis an
D.T. Wyman have removed from the
state.
In looking over the field for the year
we lind &c of the churches have received
aid from the convention. There las
been notable increase in the ability
and purpose OF the churches to assist
themselves, and indications that better
business methods have been adopted.
There has been a su bstaDtial gain in
facilities in the churches assisted. There
is great reason for joy in the fact that
these churches have been gaining spirit
ual harvests. Forty three of the church
es report baptisms to the number of 367,
while many converts have not yet sought
membership in the church. A fiatterlng
indication of progress is the fact that
the smaller churches have been asking
for pastoral service.
The report closed with roll of the
old lights of the church now deceased.
The report took upin detail the opera
tions of the year i'll the different Sec
lions of the state Or. the whole the
trustees were able to tell of progress and
growth in the churches and gratifying
state of affairs. Some of the many facts
presented are the following: Beginning
