The fight for first place in the Ma
tional League continues to be eXcltlng
enough for anybody. Pittsburg and
Cleveland are practically tied for the
coveted honor, although there is in re
alitv a slight margin Of difference in
the relative standing of the clubs. the
Pirates should finish the present week
at the top Of the list. They meet the
two tail-enders on the Pittsburg

Next week the Pirates leave on a west

AN ELOQUENT SPEECH.
Great Britain's Care of
Her Citizens.

An American resident of Ho-
nolulu requests the republication
IN the INDEPENDENT OF the follow
ing extract from a speech deliver
ed by Senator Frye to the Re
publicans of Portland, Maine.
1t is all the more striking from
the fact that Senator Frye, from
his sensational diatribes against
British aggression, has earned
the name of being a regular
twister of the British lions tail:
II do not know that / ever
loved England particularly. l
do not think she treated US we'll
in the war. Indeed, think that,
considering that We were her
daughter, she treated us very
badly, and sympathized with
what seemed to her to be our
downfall, but even in an enemy
[ think | can see what is worthy
of admiration. The care
which England has for her citi-
zAns, wherever they may be
located, is marvellous and admir-
able. 1t is worth something to
be a citizen of Great Britain, as
much as it was in the olden days
to be a Roman citizen. There
comes to my mind in this mo-
ment, and you will remember it,
that wonderful little episode in
her history whore King Theodore
seized young man by the name
of Campbell, without any justif-
cation of law, and put him into
the fortress of Magdala, about
1000 feet above the level of the
sea. Word was sent to Great. Bri-
tain that he was there without the
authority oflaw,and Great Britain
demanded his release. him
King Theodore refused to release.
In 80 days time from that refusal
10000 English soldiers and Sc
poys were on board ships which,
with their white wings spread
sailed down upon the coast. They
landed upon that coast; they
marched GOO miles. through
swamp and morass, under the
burning sun. They marched up
the mountain heights and gave
battle to King Theodore and his
forces. They beat down the iron
gates and Jne willis Of stone, n nd
reached down into the dungeon
and took that one British citizen
out and carried him down the
mountain side, across the swamps
and morasses, and placed him or
board the white-winged ships, and
carried him home to England in
safety. (Applause.) 1t cost Eng
land twenty millions of pounds
and made General Napier LORD
Napier of Magdala. Was moi
that great thing for grear
country to do? An eye SHARP
enough to see one of its thirty
millions of people, an arm strong
enough to stretch across the
ocean and morasses, and pluck
him as n brand from the burning
and carry him home in safety
Who would not die for country
that can do that?"

Eating Grow.

We pray the Ad'eftlser III lCs
next issue to send us a receipt for
our home circle notes, showing
us how to take or boil crow, so as
to make it most palatable. There
can be no doubt that the official
organ must enjoy the dish referred
to and we can only admire the
gusto, with which it devoured it
in i,s columns yesterday.
A while ago, according to the
Advertiser the American. Adj
ministration was extremely bad
and Mr.. Gresham was persona
decidedly non grata. Hawaii as
represented by the clique OF
ex-Americans was going to re-
taliate on account of Thurston's
disgrace and there was an un-
common lot Of blood in the eyes
of our friends previous
to this occasion when thewarlike
feeling took practical shape and
they donned their armor and were
ready to come down to Brewers
wharf and stop the U. S. marines
from landing on our shores. A
few days ago they seriously con-
sidered the advisability Of send
ing Mr.. Willis home and severing
their connection with the United
States, and they feltquite swagger
and their little heads swelled until
they thought that they over
shadowed President Cleveland's
top-knot.
But what q change has come
over their dreams Where, oh
where, is their heroic sentiment =?
Where the bluster and braggado-
clio? Poor 'Tiser, it had to swallow
the dish of crow pr epared by
Lord Kimberley and whiningly
creep to the footstool of the once
dispised Gresham and cry:
"What does the United States
have to say in the matter r"
The matter refers to Great
Britain's pronounced intention to
protect British subjects in Ha7
waii and Great Britain's deter
mination to decide who are her
snhjacts and who are not.
The Advertiser virtually has
the unmitigated cheek to call on
the United States for protection
against the countries which
shortly will revenge outroges
committed by our short sighted
government against their respec-
tive subjects residing here. The
ruling clique seems to have
forgotten its arrogance and its
vituperations against the govern
ment to which it now cries for
suecor. The knowledge that
the Nicaragua affair will be re-
peated in Hawaii has scared these
heroes who used to lay down their
lives and repeat tho performance
out of their wits. Now, America
aud Gresham are good enough if
they only can save them from the
consequences Of their folly.
Be men; stand up and take
your punishment acknowledge
your fault and try to make re-
Cancellation with the men who
alone can save you from igno-
miny and injury-the men who
have been outraged and per
secuted. From the United States
you can expect nothing.

last on the subject of the nation
ality of Messrs. Rickard, Walker
and Hewett, in which l informed
you that L had decided to submit
the whole question to my govern
ment and await their decision,
have the honor to inform you
that Lord Kimberley has had
under his careful consideration
the question of nationality of the
above named mon and has come
to the conclusion that in tae case
of Mr.. Hewett there is no ground
on which to support n claim tc
British nationality, as he appears
to have made the proper applica-
tion. given the requisite proofs
and obtained a certificate of Ha-
waiian nationality. The case of
the other two mon has, however,
been viewed differently.
His Lordship states that they
do not appear to have voluntarily
and knowingly become naturaliz,
ed. They are only shown tC
have taken the oath of allegiance
to King Kalakaua and his sue
csssor, and they assert that they
took that oath on the express as
surance that it would not affect
their nationality, and there is nc
proof that certificates of natural
ization were issued to them. am
therefore instructed to represent
to your government that lie,
Majesty's government can not adj
NIT that the Hawaiian nationality
of Messrs. Rickard and Wake.
has been established.

Minister Hatch said that
the matter was still under con-
sideration by the Executive.
He might state that $ the
views expressed by the Brit
ish Government did not meet
with this Governments assent.
A bill to authorize the Mar
shall and his deputies, etc, to
administer oaths came up for
second reading.
Mr.. Emmeluth did not be-
lieve in passing any more laws
except such asthe Executive de-
clared to eabsolutelynecessary.
1t was high time they stopped
legislating, and left it to the
Legislature.
Minister Smith replied that,
while the proposed law was
not absolutely necessary, it
would save a great deal of in
convenience in the country
districts, Many people there
had wanted to take the oath
to the Republic, but there was
no official near them author
lied to administer oaths.
The bill passed.
At 4:30 the Councils resolv-
ed into executive session, and
sat behind closed doors an un-
usually long time.

FOR CITY IMPROVEMENTS.

DR.. Northrop's explanation of
the methods and aims of the Viii
lage Improvement society ought to
result in the Inauguration of a sim
liar movement in this city. There
isno better medium of bringing the
efforts of public spirited citizens
into effective, everyday activity.
Results obtained in other cities
demonstrate what may be brought
about simply by organization. Few
communities exist where by ques-
tioning individuals one cannot OBJ
tain many useful and progressive
ideas which are wasted through the
lack of an organized working force.
The Improvement society is in
many respects a mutual aid So
ciety. Members of the city or town
are brought together for aH ex-
change of suggestions, from which
a definite line of action may be de-
duced and put in the hands of
committees, who see that it is car
ried out. Too much must not
be expected at the outset.
Street widening and park extension
are features that may come in time,
but there are many little things
as a pile of rubbish here, and a
hole in the sidewalk there-Which
can be brought to the attention of
the authorities much more quickly
than through the usual avenues.
Improvements can be brought about
in a manner acceptable atonce tothe
various departments of the Govern
ment and those directly Interested.
