The eagle screams. But does
not do it through Mr.. Armstrong
as an imperial bird. sure q its
strength. ready TO strike and de-
termined 70 conquer. The Eagle
ism OF the Airs-tiser Is nothing
more than Peacockism. The IN
telligence Of the United states{s
represented By men, who are well
aware that any conflict with tie
powers Of the East or the West
must be. if not disastrous, at least
disadyantageols to the great Re
public.
The AdUsrt'ser writer, who
fails to real y the httleness Of his
brain is now doing the Peacock
act towards Japan and Chinus
Believing that he writes with
feather pulled from the wings of
the immortal American eagle, he
emits grunt and squeak, Of
which an average hog and full
born pig would be equally
ashamed.
He tells us that the Japanese
government followed in the foot
steps of the United States, and
recognized the Hawaiian republic
by receiving the Hawaiian repre-
sentative. and that it further
more told the said representative
that it acknowledged he supremacy
Of The United Stutss "a, Ha,cdii
We care not a. deal with the
idiocy displayed by the Adver-
tiser man in writing such essence
of rot. Mr.. Irwin, or for that
matter. any other fore gn repre-
sentative would know absolutely
nothing abou, the policy of a
power 10 which he might be
accred ted. That the present
government has been acknowl
edged is very probable That
the japanese government has
made a confident Of Mr. Irwin IS
impossible.
The Adcer''ss5 editor shows a
fatal ignorance Of diplom &c af-
fairs; in fact the very same lack
of sarojr taire displayed by him
in former days when he made an
ass Of Kalskaua and himself dur
ing their trip to Europe
Emphasizing his Ignorance and
inexcusable stupidity, be branch
es out today in an article in which
he tries to advocate the annexa-
ton of these islands by America
because China may sdopta threat
ening attitude
And this is what he says:
The war now existing between
China and Japan puts before the
American people, IN very real
istic way the supreme Importance
Of Hawaii to the States
The United States haven't
given a thought to the present
Japan China war, except rs il is
an interesting piece Of reading
matters in the numer US journals
who feel jubilant on account Of
unlimited copy Hawaii has so
far played no role in the war and
will not do SO under present cir
cumstanees.
The sudden fe expressed by
the Adrsrtissr in regard to China
is rather amusing when we re-
member. that China Is beng de-
feated right and left and hasn't
won a single battle. Still the
champion Of the American Eagle
cries ont:
The pending war lSan educator,
and it shows to the Americans
that China is making rapid
strides in the art Of modern war
fare. and that ifthe Chinese ever
get into the way Of thirsting for
American gore. they viii prompt

American coafts. especially AS the
Americans tave persistentiy.

the rights Of tho Chinese.
