III seems that the beech-combers
and other disreputable hangers-on who
had been the benefciaries of the I'M
speakably corrupt and wicked reign Of
the ex-Queen of Hawaii took prompt
advantage Of the absence of all American
men-of-war from Honolulu to inaugurate
a plot to restore the monarchy. The
leader was the malodorous Wilcox, the
principal paramour of the ex-Queen,
and who was more than any other man
responsible for her acts of maladminis-
tration, which finally compelled the
decent people of the islands to rise
against her. The Government of the
Republic had timely knowledge of the
plot, and acted with the greatest prompt
itude A small police force was sent to
search the house where arms and am
munition were concealed. A melee took
place, in which the police squad was
roughly handled, and a volunteer,
Charles Carter, young man Of high
character and leading Annexat1nist,
was killed. The police received immedi-
ate achievements, the conspirators were
dispersed with loss of several killed,
and over 200 were arrested. Every
attempt of the Royalists to make a
stand was at once overcome, and they
are now supposed to be scattered to IN
accessible parts of the Island. Their
arms and ammunition, including a
couple Of small cannon, were obtained
from British Columbia. The victory of
the Government seems to have been
complete, though the leader Of the plot,
Wilcox, had not been captured when
the steamer left Honolulu. In one way
the incident has fortunate aspect. 1t
shows that the Government has entire
ability to take care of itself, and without
the slightest aid or encouragement from
the presence of American war vessels,
and this demonstrates its right to be con-
sidered the legitimate Government All
of the 1000 Americans, and
all Of the better class of people
on the Islands, with the exception Of
few Englishmen, who are intriguing in
the interest of their own country, are
solidly supporting the Government, and
stand ready to fight for it. The killing
Of Mr.. Carter was lamentable affair.
He was a patriotic, able man, and
native of the islands. His father had
been Minister from the Hawaii to the
United States He was a graduate
from the University Of Ann Arbor,
Mich, and had practiced law for year
in Toledo, o., where he married, before
returning to his home. He had many
friends in this country who esteemed
him highly. The affair has caused
much excitement in this country, and
emphasized very strongly the desire Of
our people that We should proceed at
once to annex the islands. If the mat
ter could be brought before Congress in
such shape as to allow the Cuckoos TO
vote upon it without rejecting upon the
Administration, there would be an over
whelming majority in both Houses for
annexation. The fight in Congress is
merely that Of a rear-guard trying to
cover the retreat from a disastrous posi-
ton.

WHAT rs HE PROUD OFF

play the sensational role Of "heavy
villain at the Friday evening private
pension sessions. Why he does this no
one knows. There has been absolutely
no reason for recrudescence of the
Lost Cause" at this time. Since the
election the South has seemed utterly
a-weary of it, while it is positively hate
| full to the Northern Democrats. He has
been told so in words more forcible than
polite by such Democrats as Martin,
Springer, Clark, Cooper, Sickles, and
others. Nevertheless, he continues to
swell, illuminate, and buster ad nauseane.
Last Friday evening Mr.. Jones took
occasion to say al love the cause to-day
as much as | did when boy | barred my
bosom to you on the battlefelds of Vir-
ginia. i x x / will answer here
and everywhere that | am proud of that
cause, and | love it. | want to say,
moreover, that when he says | said /
believed the cause of the South to be
Just he ISLANDERS me. | have ever said,
and | repeat it here, that | know it was
Just"
Now, the question instantly occurs,
What is Mr.. Jones proud of? What
does he love? If he had said that he
was proud of the gallantry and devo-
ton of the, Southern soldiers to a cause
that they then believed to be right
that he loved them for their wonderful
courage and fortitude in doing what
then appeared to be their duty, no one
would say him nay, no one would take
exceptions.
But he does not say that. He says
he loves the cause for which they fought
just as much to-day as ever; that he not
only believes but absolutely knows that
it was right Yet on another day he
will rise in his place in the House and
proclaim his devoted loyalty to the Gov
eminent of the United States, and ex-
press his satisfaction that slavery has
been destroyed and its blighting infu-
ence removed. These things distress the
mind Of tie reasoner.
"The cause " meant and could only
mean two things-the disruption of the
United States and the pcrpetuation of
human slavery. There was absolutely
nothing else involved. Absolutely moth
ing else was settled by the war. The
only two things enforced upon the States
which went into rebellion were that they
must continue under the Government of
the United States and abolish slavery
Nobody can claim anything 10 the con-
trary. To prate about elderly" and
" selfgovernment" is the veriest bosh.
The only Liberties of which they were
deprived were those of Withdrawing from
the Union and of holding human beings
in slavery. Not a little finger was laid
on anything else.
Therefore, when Mr.. Jones says that
he knows that the cause of the South
was right he asserts that State has the
right to secede, and its people to hold
other people in bondage. This is what
he fought for in 1S61-5; this is what
he is glad he fought for; this is what he
is "just as proud of to-day as when he
barred his breast on the battleiields."
How can such man say that he is
loyal TO the Government Of the United
States, and to its laws and institutions?
He must lie, one way or the other.

at heart, to make an appeal through your
paper to GAR. Posts for assistance for the
needy and suffering comrades in our town.

bread and water gravy-and but little
bread at that. For fuel many are burning

we are in such destitute condition is this
Our locality is newly settled by people who
came here with little or nothing to begin
with. They have had to open new farms
and build places to live. many times but n
sod hut or dug-out. In 1893 we raised
barely enough to scrimp through with, but
nothing TO sell. In '94 we raised no wheat,
no oats, no corn, no potatoes, and no hay.
What we need most Of anything is money
t. buy seed aud feed in the Spring. Many
people in the eastern part of the State claim
the State is able to take care of all needy
people in the State but as yet all we have
received is one car containing 1000 pounds
of corn, wheat -four, and old clothes. Our
Leg stature claim they are going to make
an appropriation, but it will be as late as
March before they can possibly get any
funds available, and then there will be
another month before supplies can be dis
tributed.-A. II. POTTER, Commander, Per-

JUSTICE TO FOREIGN PENSIONERS.

~ u, IL,
JUSTICE TO FOREIGN PENSIONERS.
The Senate has adopted an amend
ment repeating the odious and disgrace
full restriction against pensions to vet
Grams and their widows residing outside
of the United States. The passage of
that law was one of the results of the
calumnious raid upon the pensioners.
The public, and particularly the South,
was made to believe that pensions went
to legions of mereenaries who came to
this country TO get big pay and bounty,
and return home after the war. Even
had this been the case there was abso-
lutely no justice in cutting them of
the roll. The pension was part OF
their contract with the Government,
and the Government had no more right
to setup non-residence as pretext for de-
frauding them than to do the same thing
with a bond-holder. There was not
thought of refusing, money-lender his
principal and interest because he was
living out of the country. As matter
of fact there are comparatively few pen-
sioners outside of the United States, and
many of these are native Americans, who
have gone abroad for business reasons.
They are merchants, traders, clerks, skill
ed mechanics, and Others who have gone
abroad to introduce American goods, to
look after American machinery ex-
ported to foreign lands, or for some such
reason. THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE has
subscribers in every part of the world,
men who were good soldiers, and who
love their country above all things, and
who cherish The NATIONAL TRIBUNE
because of its weekly budget of news
about their country and their comrades.
We get the most touching aqd enthusi-
astic letters from these men. One, for
example, is running mine engine, 1000
miles away from the ocean, in the heart
of the wilderness of South America

The Deadwood Pioneer has been in
terviewing ex Senator Sol Star, Senator
Rice and other good authorities about
the proposition Of the auditor t. hold
back the money due the firemen because
the Legislature failed to make a%ppropria-
ton for them. They all agree that the
money must be paid. The law Of 1887
required all fire insurance companies to
pay into the state treasury 2 per cent on
all the premiums received from towns in
which there are organized fire depart
ments and that this money was to be
distributed among the fire companies.
Mr.. Nipple holds that as the Legislature
did not make provision for the payment
OF this money to the tiremen he has no
power to get it out of the treasury.
These gentlemen say hat no special
enactment is necessary. II this view is
correct it will be good news for the fire.

The future efficiency Of the Indian po-
lice force on our reservations has been
greatly jeopardized by the trial OF Scares-
the-Hawk and Straight Head, who were
sentenced to the >penitentiary for one
year and one day each for killing a
ranchman by the name Of Fielder while
trying to arrest him. From the evidence
it is quite plain they only did their duty
and should the sentence stand it would
no doubt render impotent the service Of
Indians in the future as police. They
we're in a position where they had either
to kill or be killed by Fielder and the
v%indicatlon Of the law requires that they
be discharged and return to their posts
of duty. In a habeas corpus proceeding
before Judge Edgerton to get them out
OF the "pen" the judge has granted the
plea for their release and for the present
they will be free men, although District
Attorney Miller has appealed from the
judges decision.

TROUBLE IS LIKELY
Attorney Erwin Says Another
Big Railroad Strike Is
Imminent.
COMPLAINING OF HARD TIMES.
Officials Say Wages Must Be
Cut If Business Don't
Improve.

ST. PAUL. April 25.-"No mortal
tongue a tell" was the reply made
by a prominent railroad official when
asked if a recurrence Of railroad strikes
il likely to come this summer. The
companies, as well a. the laborers who
have places, are hopeful that such a dis
aster will not come again, but there il
fear Of it from both quarters. w. w.
Erwin is probably, as he claims, in a
position to know the feeling Of the rail-
road employees. He is in close touch
with Debs, and through him with what
is going ON in the A. r. U. This gen.
tleman is Of the opinion that a fight is
brewing between railroad operators and
employees that will put all past strikes
in the shade. Debs has been active
during the winter organizing the A. R.
U. He has spent months in the West,
going clear to the coast. The work Of
organization is also being prosecuted in
the East. Aside from this, there is a
Craving on the Part of the Outs
for revenge, and they would not be adj
verse to a general strike. ~1he engin-
eers' and firemen's associations are hav-
ing trouble also. and are reaping some
of the results of refusing to help the A.
R. U. out. All the railroads are COM
planning of hard times and saying that
they hope it will not be necessary to cut
wages. Judge Chandler Of the Mil
waukee system says that if times
don't improve, 50 that railroads can
do more business, his road will either
have to go into bankruptcy or cut
wages. Il sincerely hope we will not
have to cut wages" he added. The
same complaint of hard times is being
made by ali the roads. Representa-
tives Of several roads have stated that
any additional burdens that should be
heaped upon railroads by legislation
would result in a reduction of wages.
This was q common statement before
committees Of the Legislature during the
winter.

The sensation at st. Petersburg is
M. Ivanovitch. This gentleman is the
we'll known se~ptuagenarian manager of
the Imperial bank, and despite his age
and worldly wisdom and business acute
ness he has fallen madly in love with a
young and pretty French ballet dancer,
whose stage name is Mile. Petitpas. The
lady is sternly virtuous, however, and
as N. Ivanovitch has q wife and grown
up children the course of this love runs
anything but smoothly.
All st. Petersburg is intensely inter
ested, for the amorous old banker has
not let his love bloom unseen. He has,
in fact, proclaimed it, and every man
in the street knows all about it. Ivano-
witch will, if need be, turn Turk in Or
der to marry little Petitpas. Meanwhile
that young woman is not at all averse
to wedding the millionaire. The mere
prospect of such q match has already
sent up her artistic value 80 per cent, so
that she stands to win anyhow, even if
the diamonds lavished upon her by her
doting old lover be not counted. Ivano-
