France is reminded within the past
few weeks Of the same great disease. A
bomb Is exploded IN the chamber Of
deputies, with the evident dramatic in
tention Of emphasizing the irrepressi-
BILE conflict between law and aawless-
ness, between anarchy and government.
II was only the merest accident that
prevented this bomb from doing the
terrible work intended by its thsower.
Officials in Germany have recently
received mysterious packages which
contained explosives sufficient tekin.
Russia has been in condition OF
chronic anarchy for generation.
England is reminded from day to day
Of the fact Of this disease in her social
body.
The government Of italy now faces
the possibility Of a social revolution
which threatens to destroy the empire
itself. The recent accession OF Crispi to
power again has done little to allay the
feeling Of uneasiness and uncertainty.
Ctispi is the ayowed enemy Of the
Vatican, and yet a high ecclesiastic, in
commenting on his return to power, ex-
habited little concern, saying by way OF
pareuthesis that, though Crispi was an
OPEN enemy Of the Vatican, they would
scarcely expect hostile movement upon
his part, when the empire itself was
threatened with possible dissolution in
a social upheaval.
AN AWFUL FACT.
The threat of social disorder can no
longer be laughed out of court. It can
NO longer be placed to the overlurid
imagination Of a certain classof writers.
It is a solemn and an awful fact with
which government today stands face
to face; with which the conservative
forces Of society stand face to face.
Crime has become an epidemic. An
archy has become disease, and the dis
ease must be declared world epldem-
ic. The method Of infection is through
our -debauched daily press, and 1t has

extending and perfecting their organi-
xation, and they have shown their tre-
mendous power in the past 10 years.
They have organized strikes that have
paralyzed trade, costing millions Of dol
lars, precipitating chaos in more than
one nation in the business world. In
the spirit and mightiness and demands
of some of these organizations there is
much that is brutal ard unreasonable.
They refuse to allow man to earn a
living who will not work in their way
and through their union. They would
force him to starve, and if he attempts
to work they would murder him in his
attempt. It is needless to say that this
is an act Of war. It is needless to say
that the position assumed by the men
who lead these forces is tantamount to
q declaration Of war in society. The
weapons they use are the weapons Of
war. Boycotts and strikes and violence
are used to supplement when deemed
necessary.
Is THE WAR JCSTH1ABLE:
We need not ask is this night, either
apon the part of the capitalists or upon
The part Of the radicals. If war is right,
it is right. Falsehood and violence and
homicide are the elements Of war. II
war is right, these things are justified.
There are some things that are worse
than war, We will agree-slavery, stag
nation and despair.
The degradation of millions OF people
,could certainly be ,corse than the death
of feao thousand. 1t our statesmen
ard philanthropists and teachers see tot.
These are the facts Of our social re-
gime today. The causes that originat-
ed and produced this strife in the past,
and originates it, produces it, today, are
not far to seek. They are found in the
broadening of the gulf that separates
the two great classes from one another.
Farther and farther apart they are
driven each day. They know less of
each other; they desire but to know less
of each other. With this alienation

THE LAST DITCH FLOODED.
PROPOSED LAST MOVE or ROYAL
lists CHTCKMATED.
Intended to Appeal Ia England and
France Behcading Policy aud
Monroe Doctrine.

1t is learned with sufficient positive
ness to allow it to he asserted as fact
that the lately abandoned Royalist pro-
gram included the invasion OF Washing
ton by c. W. Ashford and a train Of
workers for the lost cause. The advance
guard of this delegation was on the eve
of departure for the East from san Fran
cisco when the behcadiug interview was
published in the United States. The
appearance in print OF this frightlul
declaration OF policy by the ex-Queen
knocked the plans OF the Monarchists
forty times higher than Col. Gilderoy'
celebrated kite. They said pau then and
there. With discernment and judgment
that do them credit they were suddenly
brought to the realization that further
effort on behalf OF the pretender would
be worse than useless.
Ashford. Parker ct al. were the field
officers for a movement that was intend
ed to set the Provisional Government
camp at skies and sevens. They pro-
posed, in case they could do nothing at
Washington, to execute u grand
coup. Had their design been
put into effect the affairs OF
Hawaii might for time at least have
been in the seething, imposing and
puzZling turmoil of the widest inter.
national circles. The result might have
been serious to all concerned. Again, e
take calm view Of the proposal, it is
more than likely that the case repre-
scented by Ashford, ct al, would have
been unceremoniously tossed out o
court.
As a final effort, as desperate fororl
hope, the Royalists intended to appca
to England and France to preserve tn,
autonomy of Hawaii as recognized b,
those powers few months more thar
fifty years ago. Exhaustive briefs ant
lengthy appeals on the subject had beer
prepared here and al San Francisco.
Now this is all dropped forever. II
the first place those powers would scorl
to come to the relief OF an avowcd head
hunter. England wants no rival i'll tina
business. The active, time-honoreC
policy OF that country i
to behead headhunters. France
has enough troubles of he
own these beautiful days with tn,
rumblings of II second commune in tn,
air and bribery and trickery uppermos
in the close air OF home politics u
viewed by the united and peaceful
iatherland.
But the straw that broke the camel
back was the renewed, unequivocal an,
direct assertion that the United State
would in any event apply the Monro
doctrine to the Islands. That was
cinching checkmate, and the inter
national embassy turned tail and cam
home from san Francisco instead q
proceeding to Washington.
The honorable name Of the Hon. Thee
II. Davies, the degenerate Brutus OF tn
play, was coupled with this scheme.

TWO FLAGS
A Pair of Favorite Designs for the
Hawaiian Commonwealth

A Pair of Favorite Designs for the
Hawaiian Commonwealth.
The most popular OF the many flags
designed by Geo. f. Stratemeyer and
others for the Hawaiian Commonwealth
is the one with red, white and blue
stripes and single five-pointed white
star in the field of blue. This is an exact
counterpart OF the flag of Liberia, except
that republics banner has II siX-pointed
instead OF tive-pointed star. On this
account there has been not little OBJ
lection to the otherwise favorite flag. 1t
is not expected that the Liberan flag
will often appear outside that country,
but it is believed that Hawaii's emblem
will under the new order OF things be-
come familiar in all parts Of the world
That is, if ever the similarity is noticed
it will simply be remarked that the ilay
OF Liberia resembles that of the Hawai-.
ian Commonwealth.
Another design that has met witt
favor is the white, red and blue stripes
the same rs on the present flag, ano
eight stars-one for each island-on the
field. This would be following the
American plan, and the production
would fit the description 1.-THE stars ano
Stripes"
A bunting house in the States hai
already sent sample of the single-stal
flag. When the change is made som'
house will get big order and severa
are keen for the trade.

1t Explains Passage in His writings
and Also Mentions BOOSTERS.
EDITOR STAR: Please allow me the
privilege of saying that the passage
quoted by you last evening, was not
written by me as expressive of my own
sentiments, whatever these may be-
| believe that correspondent has, at
least while i'm the field, no right to any
opinion, save as TO the truth of his
statements of fact or the credibility of
his authorities for given theories. | re-
gard my position as simply that of
a court reporter who shall faithfully
record the arguments of both plaintiff
and defendant with the statement of
the prominent witnesses brought for
ward by each. In this connection l put
into the English language statement
of certain native view of the situation
and in the article from which you eX-
tracted it. The whole passage is in quo
tation marks. That there are natives
who hold just that opinion, do not
think any person will deny. Whether
it is just or utterly false, is matter
with which | have nothing to do.
AT the same time, permit me to add
that ! am perfectly willing to publicly
announce to which party shall belong,
and | so informed prominent member
of the Executive Council the day after
my arrival. This possibly may be of
interest to your readers, so | will state
my platform as follows:
The first Hawaiian Government
which issues a proclamation that the
Palace walls will be seen the next
morning covered with the inanimate
heads of all of the ROSTERS in Honolulu
will receive my allegiance after one
night of quiet, so as to be sure that not
disturber of the public peace remains.
| shall watch the official proclamation'
on the side of royalism and republican,
ism every day and when these insurg
ents are beheaded, you can safely
announce my affiliations. Until then
these must be matter of doubt.
Respectfully yours,
julius A. PALMER, JR.

Bismarck stables and the school house.
A reward OF $50 is offered for its dis
covcry.

40 years.
\ meeting OF the Maui Annexation
club was held at Paia on Friday evening
/ last, which was well attended. Several
good resolutions were brought forward
One of great benefit was by Mr.. poguc.
/ which was unanimously Carrcd-that
the Annexation club OF Maui be divided
int districts, TO enable members to meet
more frequently. As it is now, members
have to neglect their business consider
ably to be able to meet at the appointed
time. The natives are sick and tired OF
the lies and rubbish that have been
drilled into them for the past year and
are willing and anxious "a great number
of them to come over TO the right side,
and by having more meetings and keep
ing the clubs bit livelicr than before
is the best method OF getting Hawaiians
together. This will make the situation
of affairs palmer and will tend to impress
upon them the feeling of the Annexation
lparty towards the natives, also our will
Engness to enroll them as members OF
the club.
A resolution by Mr.. II. p. Baldwin
that the Advisory Council be not in
creased from fourteen to twenty-four
numbers was passed. Let it not be
understood that the Maui AnneXation-
lists are for one moment opposed to
increasing the members of the Council,
as it is not SO, but was it not for the
amendment of the said resolution it
would not have been carried, but rs the
amendment read thus, (pending the
decision OF the present Congress OF the
United Statcs) il was thought advisable
not to make any. changes until such de-
CisOn was arrived at.
The John d. Spreckels arrived at

THE POISONING CASES.
DR.. Rodgers Thinks They Were the
Result of Evil Intentions.

EDITOR STAR: | notice in your edi-
torial column OF Yesterdays issue the
statement that the poisoning OF the
soldiers at the barracks in April last was
attributed to the use of canned pro-
visions. An intimation to the same
effect appears in this mornings Adrer-
tiser. Having been the medical officer
of the military and having personally
attended all the members OF Captain
Goods company who suffered at ehat
time, | am able to state that the symp-
toms from which the men then suffered
could not have been due to canned OF
preserved meats or vegetables, Tor the
simple reason that none were used al
the meal which caused the mischief
The only canned goods used on that &C.
casion were two cans OF pears that wer,
put on the officers table. Some OF the
men may have eaten what the officers
LETT, but no officer and no person who
ate at the officers table at that time was
in any way affected.
By publishing this note you will serve
the truth OF history and oblige tn,
writer. My own belief, formed at the
time, was that the poisoning was inten
tional. A second occurrence OF the sam,
kind, though less severe in its manifesto
tions, strengthens me in that view.
Very respectfully,

There is little to add to the account of
the attempt to assassinate Patrolman
Wishart of the mounted police. He
and Captain Klemme scout at the hint
that the patrolman's own weapon
made the report. Three more shots
were fired soon after and Wishart fired
once to attract the attention of other
officers. A bag of taro was found on
the ground near the scene of the attack
on Wishart. This was made the foun-
dation for story that the patrolman
had arrested thief who fired at him
Wishart says he not only arrested nc
one, but did not even see the man who
fired at him.

The corpse of Chinaman was picked
up in the bay this morning. Some
fishermen out in canoes found the body
at daylight. The tloater was moving on

The Chinaman had been dead fully t
