The Diamond King of South
Africa.

b. j. Barnato, known as the
diamond king, has had a wonder
full career, in the course of which
he has shown remarkable shrewd-
ness. He went to Cape Town in
1873 a comparatively poor man,
and three years later bought his
first claim in a community that is
now called Kimberly, q flourish :
ing town the center of a railroad
system and the headquarters of
the diamond industry in South
Africa. In 1881 he owned four
claims, on which he organized
company, with 100000 as the
value of each claim. This put
him on financial footihg. In
1884 he bought another tract,
paying the highest price then
known in Kimberly. This ven
ture brought him a profit of
100000. After this be began
operations In mining stocks.
He centralized capital by COM
bining several mines. and now |
represents half of the diamond |
industry in Kimberly. Since he
bought his first claim, the output
of diamonds has amounted to
900 carats, valued at $780,
100000. Judging from the way
that his wealth has accumulated.
it is only q question of time when
Mr. Barnato will be counted
among the richest men 10 the
world. 1t is one proof of the
great mineral wealth of the con-
'inent. Boston Trahscripi.

HAPPY NEW YEAR.

When at II o'clock tonight the
old year goes out" let it take
with it all unpleasant and sad
memories, all bitterness and
hatred, all resentment for in
jnries aud wrongs which have
been created during the reign
of the deposed director of the
perpetually running time glass.
1894 is no more.
Long live 1895.
We wish Hawaii and every
man living in the country happy
new year. May 1t bring prosper
ity to the country and to the
nation. May every man, woman
and child put their hands to the
wheel and increasingly assist In
promoting the good of this coun-
try. May selfish ambition dis :
appear and true patriotism take
It's place.
A patriotism that can under
stand to value the independence
of the land and the inalienating
right of popular rule. On such
a basis all parties and classes
will be able to meet and through
a general Cancellation of hostile
factions secure the welfare and
prosperity of the country.
Let us enter with courage and
hope on the new year and trust
in the Providence that does
everything for the best. And let
US then all get ready as usually
to assist in the great work of
paving a certain main road with
the very best (but alas } broken
intentions.
A happy New YEAR.

STILL COMING.

There seems to be nj limit to
the introduction of Japanese
laborers to Hawaii. In spite of
the protestatlons of the govern
ment, and the American Union
Party no measures are taken to
stop or at least limit the Jap
anese immigration. A vessel is
now due with a big cargo of
coolies and Brewer q Co. have
chartered n steamer to bring 1000
laborers. What has become of
Thurston's mission to Portugal
What is Mr.. Emmeluth labor
commission doing? What is the
Board of immigration doing with
its proposed scheme for Chinese
immigration? They are evidently
all asleep, and while they enjoy
their siesta the planters take the
opportunity TO run in as many
Japanese as they possible can.
We believe that japanese labor
ers are the best class for the coun-
try, but by importing an un-
reasonable number a most difficult
if not dangerous situation will be
created here. Admiral Walker
in his report calls attention to
this fact.
The Japanese in Hawaii are
not any longer all coolies. A
large number of a more intellig- |
ent class are among us and are
doing business all over the coun- |
try rs merchants, mechanics and
professional men. The Japanese
stores in Honolulu'are shooting
up like mushrooms. They are
no longer confined to small shan
ties but they have taken the
place of the white" stores In
many of the principal streets and
blocks. And they seem to do ex-
cellent business and all sell goods
at much cheaper price than
charged by the American stores,
and their goods are of
equal quality. AT the rate
they now go on in Honolulu
the whole trade will be in
Japanese hands within the next
five years. That does not alone
mean the compulsory disappear I
ance from the islands of the white q
families but it means ruin to our i
commerce. AS saki !

The following story from the
Japan Mail shows that supersti-

world and among all nations.

CHlNA'S DlLAPIDaTED
CAPITAL.
A DISGRACE TO A DIS
GRACED EMPIRE.

Picking must be seen to be
understood. Not even in the
East can there elsewhere be
found so strange a combination
OF squalor and splendor. In the
city wall sixteen gates. surmount-
ed by brick towers, built with
rows of portfolios, are all locked
and barred soon after dark.
Except in being little lower,
the city wall is a copy of the
Great Wall" Informed of this
fact, most globe troters" take
good look at it, and spare them
selves fatiguing three days
journey.
Picking. barring its filth and
SMELLS, differs much from other
Chinese cities. While the streets
of the great Southern towns often
do not measure more than eight
or ten feet across, those of Pek-
ing very wide. All are unpav-
ed and most Of them almost
impossible to foot passengers.
Even on pony-back one runs real
danger of being submerged in
mud hole. People who cannot
ride use mule litters, sedan chairs
or two-wheeled, springless "Pek-
ing CARTS which, unless well
furnished with mattresses, give
their occupants famous shakings.
And these impossible thorough.
fares are lined by fine shops.
Every morning before dawn
carts are driven about the town

the streets are not lighted. |

and humble spirit, a residence in

Every attempt TO acquire an advsnt-
age Of one form Of religion over an
other by other means than reason 10
a confession Of weakness on the part
Of those who seek such advantage;
and every attempt to discriminate
against any class Of American Citi-
zens because Of their religion is an
indication Of danger to the liberty Of
all. Freedom Of speech and Of the
press is Che great ssSfeguard Of al
human liberty. That lost, and all is
lost; and this perfect freedom inn
plies equal rights in the exercise
thereof. The eternal sseparation OF
church and state must be maintained,
and everything that tends to their
union must be opposed by every
good citizen Of every sect.
In view of the svOwed purpose Of
the American Protective association,
to deprive one class Of American
citizens Of equal rights Of citizen
ship with every other class, il is both
natural and fitting that the Organiza-
tion should identify itself with party
whose ultimate purpose is TO con-

THE GEORGIA ELECTION.

The Georgia election is the chief
topic among democrats. Although
the result is not fully determined by
official count, each day brings news
Of Populist gains, and it Is now plain
that we're it not for the fraudulent
counting in q few counties where
democrats are in full charge. the
final count would show that the Pop
ulists had carried the state. As il is,
the majority is cut down to 10000;
the Populists have elected ninety
members Of the Legislature and have
carried forty out Of the eighty.five
counties in which the official count is
made.

THE A. P. A. PATRIOTS.

In consequence of the withdrawal
Of R. E. Bruner from the American
Protective association, facts are COM
ing to light that reveal the true char
acter Of that institution. As has
been suspected from the first, this
organization OF self-Constituted
American patriots turns out to be a
mere republican machine, and the
action Of our Populist state oonven-
ton in denouncing it was a very
proper one.
There is another thought which
suggests itself in view of the late
revelations concerning the true char
scter of the organization. Consider
ing It's aVowed principles it is quite
fitting that it should identity itself
with the republican party. It's great
fundamental doctrine seems TO be
simply opposition to Catholicism and
to recognition of the common rights
Of Catholics to the privileges Of
American citizenship. 1t is an at
tempt at revival of the old days of
prescription and Of the regulation of
religious faith and duty by the state,
and is in direct antagonism TO the
principle Of religious liberty guar.
anteed by the constitution Of the
United States. It is un-American,
unpstrlotic and unreasonable, and
can never succeed in this country.
The principle once recognized, and
thereafter it would depend simply
upon the power of numbers what re-
liglous sect should control the affairs
Of the country. It would open the
door to defeat the very purpose
avowed by the organization. All
that the Catholic world would have
to do would be TO populate the coun.
try with Catholic subjects, and that
church would come into absolute
control Of public affairs by virtue Of
