to a $1,000 farm and his daughter TO S2j,-
900 worth of property under unusual cir

dropped her spectacles in the mud, and
several packages in her arms prevented
her picking them up. Boys stood on the

Not a Fake

Although the Vancouver dis
patch relating 70 the Hawaii
Japan treaty Is incorrect in the
detail, the fact remains that the
japanese Government has off
cially stated that il will insist
in Hawaii fulfilling its treaty
obligations. aud granting tde
japanese residents IN Hawaii the
same rights as the citizen of the
most favored nations. The p. g.
government received dispatch
per Monnwai Yesterday from
Minister r. W. Irwin who IN
formed it Of the attitude Of the
japanese government, and stated
that at present no mere japanese
will come TO Hawaii, and also
that he Will arrive here by the
Gaelic. tits surprising that in
formation of such vast importance
was withheld from the Councils
Yesterday. The matter is of such
magnitude that it will be good
policy to Jet the country at large
know AZ particulars, and ass ST
in deyising ways and means to set
a sufficient labor supply without
snrrendering the political supTe-
macy of the Hawaiians to any
class or race. With the low
sugar prices, insufficient lat OF
and the taritf-bill, the country
has no picnic before it and
secrecy is certainly not appro-

fected on the fidelity, and
bravery of that wonderful con-
glomeration called the army.
Mr.. hatch who knows as much
about military as Soper does
gets quite emotional, and with
scalding tears running down his
nasal organ. he exclaims:
If you were aware, Mr..
Editor, how deeply the sense of
honor which calls for fidelity
under circumstance Of danger is
cherished by soldiers, You would
be slow, l am sure, to c ,uselessly
discredit them by vague and
wholesome imputations. "
Now that isn't bad for Hatch
But we would like to know when
and where he ever learned any
thing about what soldiers cherish
or not, and then we should adj
wise him rot to descant to much
on the "honor of his army.

not yet been destroyed, and the
truth is yet In mans memory

EDITOR HoLoMUA.

From leading article in the
ddrertiser of May 10, we observe
that fear has once more entered
the ranks of the P. g., and this
causes little wonder, as guilt
breeds cowardice. Once again,
we say to the Advertiser, that the
2. g. need have no fear of an up
rising of the Royalists, as they
never get lost confidence in Q. S.
doing ample justice to Hawaii.
The dead shots of the citizens
guard which the Advertiser
boasts of, strikes no terror In
the soul of single Royalist; and
God forbid that the day should
ever come, that the p. g.
should order their dead shots
from Kalalau) to assemble, as
the public are well aware as to
what happened to the P. G. dead
shots when they did meet the
Royal dead shot. Doubtless if a
fight did take place, the writer of
that editorial would be found
slowed away in another man 5

Constitutional Government in
Hawaii.

Students of governmental the
DRY and phenomena can observe
much that is calculated to in
terest and amuse them going on
at Honolulu just now. EXPIRES
ident Harrison, who declared to
the United States Senate that the
so-called revolution of January !.
1898, was a popular uprising of
the Hawaiian people, and was
not in anyway promoted by the
representatives of this govern
ment, can find a good deal of
special instruction in the fact
that only five hundred voters
have registered for participation
in the coming election of members
of the constitutional convent ton.
The instructive character of this
information will be broadened
and deepeued if be bears in mind
the further fact that the total
vote of the islands is thirteen
thousand Con the basis of a fran
elise which excluded a large
proportion of the native popula
ton. Senator Morgan, whose
enthusiastic JOY over the spread
of republican institutions of gov
eminent in this western hemis
phere led him to declare that
Hawaii is an American State
embraced in the American com
mercial and military system,
which entities her to indulgent
consideration, if not active svm-
patty, in her endeavors to release
her people from the odious anti
republican regime which suhor-
dinated them to the supposed
divine right of a monarch whose
title to such divinity originsted
in the most slavish conditions of
pagan barbarity, should be able
to view the present political
developments at the islands With
a great deal of complacency. for
they corroborate the notorious
fact that he is man of Iare
perSpipacity and sound Judgment
and that he knows republican
institutions of government by
their touch and taste just as a
mouse knows cheese. The Ha-
waiian system of applying rerub-
liean principles of government to
the practical affairs of life seems
to indicate that the Hawaiian
idea of what constitutes repub
lican form of government differs
widely from that OF Abraham
Lincoln, who defined republic
to be "a government of the peo-
pie, by the people. and for the
people," it differs also from that
of the trainers of orr Declaration
of Independence, Who avowed it
to be self-eyident truth shat
governments derive their Just
powers from the consent of the
governed. Take. for example.
