result was failure.

on the scene. Mr.. Stevenson was
a practical miner and concentration

money in the undertaking, so he Sc

Standing room was at premium, and
breathing space was about all that
one could get.
But, ia spite of the slight discomforts,
everyone seemed to enjoy the even

one left the building, and even then it
was with d sigh of regret that the
Feast was over. 1t was a novelty in
the way OF Honolulu entertainments,
and novelty that was well appre-
ciated.
During the afternoon, which was
specially devoted to the children, a
fairly large crowd was present. The
drill of the live dolls was greatly en-
joyed, and was very well done.
When the time came for the grand
march to start in the evening it
seemed as though it would be impossi-
BILE for the gaily dressed troop to pass
through the crowd. In some miraeu-
lous way, however, a channel was
made through the throng, and the
march proceeded. Cheers and ap-
plause greeted several of the divisions
as they passed through the crowd, but

over the stage at the upper end of the
hall it received applause, but when
America stopped on the platform,
and Columbia, personated by Miss
McGrew, waved the stars and stripes
to and fro, the cheers nearly took the
roof off the building.
When the grand march was over
the curtain was drawn across the
stage and tableaux OF the different
booths were in order. All of these
were most prettily arranged. Here,
as ia the grand march, America took
the lead in the applause, which was
deafening. However, al the tableaux
were vigorously cheered, and all de-
served what praise they received.

Col. Earle's Reform andThe State

Col. Joseph H. Earle. in his card de-
clinipg a (purely complimentary NOM
ination for the House from Greenviile,
suggests that the opponents of the

goods points Of the powers that be,
rather than point out their weakness.

this pacific philosophy vas not in Col.
Earle's mind when he ran for Govern
or in 1890 But, really, the absurdity
of bis position is such as to make peo-
pie wonder how such notions can be
held by a man of Col. Earle's intelli-
gence. Applying his theory to Radical
times, it would seem that the Demo-
cratic papers should have confined
themselves to a presentation of the

comers, we'll written laws, etc. :
but, really, the absurd'.y OF this
comparison is such as to make people
wonder" that it should have been made
BY one so intelligent as the Editor..of
TAe State. Is it possible that you re-
copnise no difference between the he
form faction and the thieves and rob
bers who infested the State from 1866
TO 1876? The former are white men to
the manner born, who have the right
to rule. e.wheneyer q majority vote 80 de-
clares; gsthe latter were anscrupulous
aliens and ignorant negroes, who preyed
upon '.prostrateState.'
It is the apprehension that the white
people may again lose control OF the
State government that makes me so
solicitous now, that the differences
among them may be adjusted. that
they be reunited as one party. Sooner
or later this will be done. but this
happy cousummation will be postponed
so long as such newspapers as The
State continue to abuse the leaders OF
the opposite faction aud fail to recog-
NICE the difference between this faction
aud the black Republicans of odlous
memory.
In conclusion. Mr.. Editor. let me say
that the fair criticism Of the acts or
public officials should be encouraged
ard that the free exercise OF this should
be limited only by truth and fairness.
But free speech aud free press, 80
dear to the hearts, Of freemen, does not
mean SANDER aud abuse, nor does lib
erty mean license.

nary intelligence to understand this
distinction. Respectfully,

Yesterday representative of The
State asked State Liquor Commls.
sioner Trailer about the matter aud
he said that the eighty per cent. proof
rye liquor, which the State was send
ing out, was new stuff, only recently
purchased from the Mill Greek Com
pany. He states, however, that all the
eighty per cent. proof corn is being
made by the water reduction process.
Mr.. Traxler says that the demand
for the cheap eighty per cent. proof
stuff is very great. He says that
about -fourtbs of the orders that
are being filled now are for this stuff.
Mr.. Trailer says the dispeusaries gen
orally have a good stock of all other
grades on hand. The cheap prices
seem to be taking. however, despite
the fact that nearly all the old places
where liquor could be bought in the
past are still selling The State.
