WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.-Ex-Gov.
Proctor Knott was offered the
position of Minister to Hawaii,
and after ascertaining that the
President expected him to substi-
tute the barbarian Queen for the
Professionals, refused to accept the
appointment, saying that he was

You can rest assured that
the democratic masses in the United
States are not in sympathy with
President Cleveland in his Hawaii
policy, and that Congress will never
authorize the restoration of Queen
Lii.
A prudent, but firm and determined
course on the part of the Provisional
Government will undoubtedly result
in annexation as soon as the will of
the American people, under our
slowly-operating constitutional sys-
tenn, can be made effective.

A ROYALIST CANARD.
There Are No Indications Of Any
Diplomatic Breach.

The American papers which
came down by the last mail con-
tanned a great deal of sensational
material about the indignation
which Mr.. Cleveland is supposed
to have felt over the last Dole
Willis correspondence, and the dire
consequences which were to ensue
to this government. Mr.. Cleveland
was about to break off diplomatic
relations with this government, and
Mr. Willis was supposed to have
received instructions to that effect
by the last steamer.
If the American Minister has re-
ceived any instructions of tenor
hostile to the Provisional Govern
ment he has not seen fit to make
them known. Inquiry at the Ex-
ecutive Building yesterday failed
to reveal any ind cation of the sort.
Mr.. Willis has been in communi-
cation with the government since
the arrival of the China, but he
has not given any hint as to any
change in the attitude of his gov
eminent. On the contrary, the re-
lations now existing between the
American Minister and the Ha-
waiian executive are of the most
cordial and friendly nature.

by all.
The gathering was unit on all
political questions and every jest
and thrust at prominent politicians
was warmly applauded. The Pro-
visional Government of Hawaii
was enthusiastically toasted several
times and all present pledged them
selves anew to its support. Honor,
just and due, was paid to the brave

We all enjoyed the evening so

and it is alleged that some OF them
force their men to buy from them

at least are lower than they are at
the usual country stores. The unique
features OF the wares carried in

headdresses, heavy boots for the
women as well as the men, and
all sorts OF gaudy shawls and

WHAT is USURY.
A Populist Judge Hands Down An
Important Decision.

Two years ago the Populists, in
their State Convention. nominated
Hon. Daniel Buck for Justice of the
Supreme Court: the Democrats en-
dorsed him and he was elected. 1t
seems our work was not altogether in
vain. Read the following;-from the
st. Paul Globe:
"The supreme court yesterday
handed down a decision that will like
ly cost many loan agents their situa-
tions. Justice Buck wrote the opin-
ion of the court. 1t is the case of
John Horkan against George X. Mes
bitt and wife, appealed from the dis
trict court of ST. Louis county. The
court below is affirmed. Horkan is
non resident, but has money in Du-
luth in the hands of his brother as
loan agent. According to the state
ment of facts, Nesbitt applied to the
agent for loan of 1926, expressing a
Willingness to pay any bonus or inter-
est asked, as he expected to make a
"spec" out of the loan within a week
or ten days. William Horkan told
him that he could not make loan for
less than month, but that he would
make loan of the amount required
bitt and wife signed a note for $l35,
due in a month, and received S125.
Nesbitt seems to have failed in his
speculation, for he liquidated by drib-
lets $65 of the note and then failed to
pay any more. Horkan brought suit
for the balance and Nesbitt pleaded
usury. Horkan, in the trial. set forth
that the $40 was paid to one Mullarky
for making out the papers, and the
defendant proved that Mularky was
Horkan's clerk and the attorney for
the agency. The supreme court holds
that it was case of usury, as will be
seen by the syllabu of the decision:
John Horkan, appellant, VS.. George
X. Nesbitt and V. Louise Nesbitt, his
wife respondents.
SyllabHs-Loaning money through
| agents who charge usuriOus and illegal
| interest under the guise of prete nded
| services rendered the borrower, con-
| stitutes void transaction.
Upon the fact in this case, held that
the transaction between the parties
was usurious, and therefore invalid.
Held, further, that there is no such
