strated that she could outsail her rival
in test course.

fully high In the great cities. There
has been some fine playing this season
and it is not unfrequently that good
people turn out in New York to see a
tussle between the giants and some
other leading team. There are very
few points of difference between the
Bostons, New Yorks and Baltimores,
while Cleveland, Pittsburg and Phila-
delphia clubs are close upon the lead
ers, and practically together. The
steady and even playing of the leaders
insures to one who is fond of the sport
treat whenever able to witness a game
between them. The champions of last
year still hold the first place, but will
have to work to keep it, for New York IS
team is pushing hard for first hOnors,
and if success follows them as of late
they will, at least, have even chances.

The emissaries of fLilioukalani are up
on us. That is, they are in Washing
ton in consultation with the president
and secretary of state. Just what Mrs.
Dominis really wants is not given to
the public. If she desires to come to
America for the purpose of visiting the
capitol the better to observe the practi-
cal working of the machinery of full
| fiedged republic, and to become ac-
quainted with some of our statesmen,
| why, let her come. 1t will attract at
tention from the sickly attempts of the
administration party to force "tariff
of some kind' bill through. If Mrs.
Domlnls wants personal satisfaction
from the president for promises made
and not fulfilled, that is not hing to dis
turb the country. But if as is rumored,
she wants now to become the head of
the Hawaiian republic, that is quite an
other matter and one she had better
mention at home. We hope there will
be no revival of consolation talk with
the eX-queen's emissaries. There has
been quite enough said and done in the
past for Mrs. Dominis. Let her rest
where President Dole has left her. 1t
will be better for her health, and all
concerned will be far happier in the
end if not now. Adieu Liliuokalani.

In spite of the tariff fight and threat.
ened drought, the times are looking up
bit, and it certainly appears that we
are on the way to better days ahead
The utter failure of the great strike
the hope of no tariff change; the de-
termination of the people to make the
best of their opportunities, and to dc
business on safe basis, to live prudent
| ly and to succeed in their undertakings
| irrespective of politics; all these things
are working healthful change. Again,
as a rule, employer and employe are
getting nearer together. This is neces-
sary and is the only way to keep the
wheels moving. More attention is giver
| to small things and we believe the EN-.
ploye is studying his own interest and
that of his employer, by giving close
attention to business and avoiding any
waste of time. If this is not the case
it should be, for it is the road to better
times. Everything counts now, and it
largely remains with the workingman
whether he shall have work or not.
Let us then strike strong industrious
blows in whatever occupation we are
engaged. All are personally responsible
in bringing about the better days we
talk of and which are nearer than is
generally supposed.
