laugh in the course of his remarks, de-
failing the reasons for gratitude to God
that had marked the year. The preacher
mentioned ''the fish in the Savannah, in
the Hudson and in Buzzard's S Bay" An

There is no truth In this. It Is considered
matter Of common prudence to maintain q
strong guard at the executive building,
which might be surprised and occupied by
insurgents before the volunteer companies
could rally for its defense. The volunteer
force needs an enlisted force as a nucleus,
which shall be always on duty. The govern
ment feels strong, and in the fullest degree
able to maintain itself. There is no appre-
hens1on Of any attempt to be made by the
royallsts against the government. They are
too thoroughly cowed and weakened. Yet
without an adequate defense was main
tanned, they might be encouraged to plot
Race Feeling.
It must necessarily. be long time before
there will cease to continue deep animosity
among natives and half whites against
what they consider the foreign usurpers who
have taken possession of the government.
No amount of concession or expression of
good will can do away with this feeling.
Nothing can possibly satisfy them except
hands, as before. They conceive themselves
to be the true and original owners of the
country, and therefore its natural and right
full rulers, and that they have been robbed of
their sacred rights. No effort of the whites
can put an end to this feeling among the
mass of the natives, any more than the hun
dreds OF millions of Hindoos can ever look
WIN SoiApidCeiiCy vi rule, dltnOOSn
the removal of that rule would mean an
archy.
The commercial progress of these islands
ana their immense development in all the
appendages of civilization have long since
become incompatible with any administra-
ton OF government by men of Polynesian
descent, except as assistant and subordinate
to able white men. The natives and half
whites in their present state of civilized
progress are incompetent to run the steam
ers, the foundries and the plantations. Much
less are they competent to conduct the
courts or the bureaus of the government.
The whole establishment has simply out
grown Polynesian capacity, and from pure
necessity its control is assumed by whites
possessing the needed capacity. But 1t is
not to be expected that the Hawaiian should
appreciate this necessity. He will continue
to feel aggrieved. We can only practice
patience with him. KAMEHAMEHA

THE GALVESTON CUP.

Morton Cadets Have Forwarded n
Formal Claim to 1t.
dispatch from Omaha, Neb., says: The
Thurston Rifles Indignantly deny the as
sertions of the Morton Cadets of Washing
ton that they have disbanded, and declare
that If the Morton Cadets get the cup and
title of champion company of America they
will do so after hard contest. The Thurs
ton Rifles were in the field long before
the Memphis contest and today are a reg
ular part of the state organization, with an
armory here and conducting regular drills.
AS stated in Saturdays Star would be
the case, Capt. Shilling of the Morton Ca
diets has forwarded to the adjutant gen.
eral Of Texas formal claim for the Gal
weston cup. In his letter Capt. Shilling
states that the Morton Cadets have been
informed by direct advices from Omaha,
which can be relied upon, that the Thurs
ton Rifles disbanded some time ago and
are now out of existence In the commu-
rication it is submitted that as the Thurs
ton Rifles no longer exist as a regularly
organized company of the National Guard,
the cup should revert to the MortonS, who
stood second in the Memphis interstate
drill, and should remain in their possess
sion until a challenge is received for an
other contest to determine the right to
hold it. Adjt. Gen. Mabry is requested to
investigate the matter, and rule regarding
the claim at the earliest possible date
Notwithstanding the dispatch from Oma-
ha, the Mortons place the utmost reliance
in the information they have received that
the Thurston Rifles have disbanded, and
will continue to believe that they are en-
titled to the cup until Adjt. Gen. Mabry
rules against them. if that should be his
action,

His Will Attacked.

The will of the late Charles P Douglass
a grandson of the late Frederick Douglass,
has been attacked by caveat filed by the
boys uncles, Charles r. and Lewis H.
Douglass, on behalf of the brother of the
boy, Robert Douglass. The deceased died
several weeks ago, and it is claimed that his
will. made on the Goth of last March. was
made when the dead boy was but sixteen
years of age, and al a time when long sick
ness had deprived him of proper testament
tary capacity. Other statutory grounds are
alleged against the validity of the instru-
ment. The estate is said to be valued at
several thousand dollars, consisting princ-
pally of his interest in his grandfather's
estate

COMMANDER LUDLoW,s CASE.
He Is Understood to Have Been Again
ReCOmmendel for Promotion.

He Is Understood to Have Been Again
Recommended for Promotion.
The President will shortly be called on to
again pass judgment on the case of Com
mander Nicoll Ludlow. He has once re-
jected the recommendation of Secretary
Herbert and the report of the regular naval
examining board favoring the promotion Of
Commander Ludlow to the grade of cap
tain. The officer was thereupon subjected
to the ordeal of another examination, ~
board altogether different in personnel from
the first, however, and for the second time
has been reported thoroughly qualified for
promotion. The report of the examining
board is now before the Secretary Of the
Navy. 1t is expected that he will conclude
its consideration this week and submit it to
the President for his action.
The President rejected the first report IN
favor of the promotion of Commander LGd-
lew for the alleged reason that he had acted
improperly in the.case of Commander Sper-
ry. having at one time reported that he was
qualified for promotion and having subse-
quently reported that he was morally unit
for promotion
1t is understood that Commander Ludlow
explained this apparent Inconsistency 10 the
last examining board by saying that a. the
time he made his first report in the case OF
Commander Sperry Chen a lieutenanD he
was mentally irresponsible, and that he was
corroborated in this statement by Surgeon
General Tryon. When next called on to re-
port on the case of Commander Sparry. he
explained, so 1t is said, that he had fully
recovered his health and he gave it his
opinion that his Junior officer was morally
unfit for promotion. basing his judgment
on Commander Sperry's record while Serv-
ing under his command.
The Presidents action in this case is
awaited with interest in naval circles. If
he approves the report of the board, Com
mander Ludlow will be promoted forthwith.
Wi hn a CT mr.
ems. Commander Ludlow cannot be dropped
nor retired, nor can he be promoted except
upon the findings of the naval examining
board, approved by the President. If, how
ever, the President withholds his approval
for his promotion, he can be kept where he
is on the list, and his juniors may be pro-
NOTED over his head. He can be dismissed
from the service on charges sustained by a
court-martal, or upon his being reported
by the examining board morally disqualified
for promotion.

VICTIMS OF "FAKES."
Queer Reason for AssaultinS Geologic
chi Survey Parties.

Queer Reason for Assaulting GeOlOgi-
chi Survey Parties.
The geological survey has furnished an
interesting question as to jurisdiction in a
complaint from Mr.. Hersey Munroe, chief
Of a Typographical surveying party that
has been at work in the field this season in
portions of Virginia and West Virginia.
Mr.. Munroe reports that recently a party
of roughs at Monmouth, w. Va, attacked
the cook of the party, pulled him off his
wagon, struck him with stones, used him
very roughly, and then set upon Mr.. Nun
roe, without word of warning rom the
roughs or provocation from the surveyors,
and struck him with a stone which made
deep wound in the back of his head. Mr..
Munroe was so badly hurt that he is I'M
able to work. Officers are after the Gull
prits, but hard not at last accounts caught
them. On another occasion thieves broke
into the cooks tent and into one belonging
to members of the party. Mr. Munroe
says he has always tried to keep on friend
ly terms with the people among whom he
has gone on surveying work. and cannot
account for the attack on the party. The
biologists carry no arms, and are very
careful to treat all with whom they come
In peaceful contact politely.
1t is likely that the proper law officers of
the government will take steps to pros
ecute the assailants of Mr.. Munroe's party.
Mr.. Munroe says the justice of the peace
to whom he applied for warrant to ar
rest the roughs told him he had better
keep cl!et and pass the matter by, as
there we're a good many fakes" through
the country this year. Mr. Wilson says
there have been several fake parties in
Georgia. who have buncoed and swinded
the natives by representing they We're en-
ployes of the United States geological sur
vey. This may account for the trouble

himself falsely to be an employe of the
United States. In all probability Congress
will be asked to enact legislation which
shall provide sufficient protection for
United States surveying parties, so that
persons who attack or modest them can be
taken into federal courts and prosecuted.
