No man conversant with the feel
ing, and revengeful intolerance, OF
the men in power will believe for a
moment that the government de-
clined to bring the suspects" to
trial for reasons of mercy, charity, or
friendship. Not much; the men
who we're kept languishing in that
coralline pest-hole known as Oahu
Prison for weeks aud months with
out trial, or even a charge against
them, had no friends in the Govern
ment circles. But the authorities
lacked absolutely the first iota OF
evidence against them aud even its
low contemplate spies dared not
manufacture evidence which would
have been ravelled into threads, and
shown to be barefaced lies, by any
lawyer, or by the accused ''supects"
themselves. Let Mr.. Hitchcock now
produce the evidence on which he
arrested the foreigners in January
last. Let him and his gang re-im-
port detectives Allen, McAvoy and
the rest of the tribe who, by the
official organs, even, have been stig-
matized as liars, frauds, humbugs
and every nice character possible.
Let them assist the OK Marshal in
refreshing his mind-not hi. cup
board-so he can remember why
Durrell, Dunwell, and the many
others were imprisoned, and let the
evidence of these virtuous "detec-
tives" be very very complete-or the
American and British governments
may decline to entertain it and COM
pei Mr.. Damon to scramble around
for coin wherewith to heal the
wounds of the illegally imprisoned
men.

Honolulu, Aug. Sc, 1895.

The boys are getting ready for
the regatta which will take place
next month at Pearl Harbor. 1t
will be one of the finest races
ever seen in Honolulu. Every
body in fact is racing now. The
boat clubs are racing. Horses
for the Waianae meeting are in
training to race. The disin-
fectors are racing the comma
bacillus. People all over the
country are raising h allelujah
on account of cholera, fumiga-
ton, quarantine and no .quaran-
tine. The "Claudine" is to race
the "Monowai" and advance re-
ports of our cholera. And the
bikers in town are getting their
wheels ready to race away from
the whole business.
And it is to the same bikers
that we want to talk to-day.
We have got the best racing
wheel manufactured in the
United States. The TRIBUNE
CYCLE has gained reputation
not enjoyed by any other racing
cycle. The numerous good qua
lities of this light, elegant,
though solid wheel, have re-
ceived the highest praise from
everybody competent of judging
of the good points of the fin de
steele racer.
The Tribune Wheel is built
by the Black Manufacturing Co.,
at Erie, Penn, and it has given
universal satisfaction to the
riders who have tried it during
the last years. Some very valu-
able improvements have been
added to the original Tribune
Cycle.
The Cycloidal Sprocket has
met an enthusiastic approval
from all connoisseurs. There is
no additional friction with the
Cycloidal Sprocket, no matter
how great the power applied, the
chain simply pulls direct and
squarely on the face of the teeth
and the power is freely impaired
to the wheel. This is the rea-
son that the Tribune Bicycles
have earned reputation for
their smooth and easy running.
We have sold a number of the
Tribunes in town, mostly racers;
and we advise the boys who
want to enter the races, now con-
templated, to secure one of these
superior wheels. The Tribune
Racer weighs only eighteen (1S)
pounds, and the depth of frame
is "a or 26t inches. 1t is the
fastest and easiest running ma
chine in the market and its ad-
vantages in sprinting are be-
yond all question. Racing men
who have tried it once cannot
be induced to. ride without it.
We invite the cyclers of the
town to call in and inspect the
machine which we offer with a
complete outfit at a very reason
able figure. If you want to be
winner ride the Tribune.

One OF the most amusing things
we have seen for long while is the
complaint by Bulletin correspon.
dent, that the wicked Government
is numbering the political prisoners
by making them assist in disinfect
ing the town; and in another column
of the same issue, the editor-or
some one else-wants the soldiers %
earn their money by shetland she'll
ing their enemy-disease-with chlo-
ride of lime aud other missiles at long
range. The prisoners, no doubt,
are exposed to more danger inside
the Jail than outside, but no one
will be able to persuade Col. Nc
Leans gallant following that the
Bulletin editor is not conspiring to
get rid OF them by means of cholera
germs, as his articles don't seem to
have the required effect.

The Advertiser is quite suddenly
appearing in new role. Instead OF
devoting it's time to twisting the

The Advertiser says that it doesn't
know the final actions of great ma
tions. We can tell it what that will
be. 1t will be justice to the indivi-
dual, strict upholding of treaty
rights and determined demand for
indemnity for the infringement on
the dignity of the nations insulted
through outrages committed by a
number of narrow minded, brainless
men who had lost all sense of the
insignifcance of their country, and
of themselves, when they offended
the nations of the world by insult
ing their citizens residing within the
borders of Hawaii. Get your OK

then pay the claims.

ciety in that god. forsaken place,

tical Progress" and circulates a peti-
tion addressed to Salisbury, Balfour,

If Gladstone and the other gentle
men have hesitated in taking up the
Armenia matter heretofore, the petit

of duty and the Armenians will be
protected Immediately. We don't

this proposition AMI concludes
that by the terms of the deed
the interest of Kennedy passed.
1t also assumed that even if
the purpose of the deed was
not to convey specific tract
still the deed was not void.
Being such or subsequent pur-
chaser from him and in posses
sion, his grantor has no righs
20 Dust him. He has the right
to a JOINT possession with the
CO tenants of the specific tract
conveyed until partition is had,
and if in partition, such tract
be assigned as the share of his
grantor, his title is perfect
against al persons.
The court concludes: Thus
in any view that can be taken
of it under The allegations, a
title was rested in plaintiffs
through the deed from Ken
nedy to Young, which entitled
them as against defendants to
the interest of Kennedy iii the
thirty five leagues and a cause
Of action was shown. For the
error of the court in dismissing
the suit the judgment is revers-

of a part OF the opinion rem
dered:
Salome McAllen ct al. VS.. g.
NJ. Raphael ct al. from Gamer
on county. This was an APP
peal from judgment of the
district court sustaining excep-
tions to plaintiffs petition and
dismissing their suit. The petit
ton contained all the allega
tons essential to action of tres
pass to try title and in add
ton thereto set forth specially
the character of the title, as
Well as the nature of the invas-
ion Of plaintiffs right, and the
question is whether or not those
allegations showed a title sufii-
eient to authorize Judgment for
plaintiffs.
The subject Of dispute is an
interest in a large tract of land
containing something more than
thirty five leagues originally
granted to Vicente IEinojosa,
which interest is claimed by
both plaintiff and defendants
under one Mifin Kennedy. The
petition shows that prior to
1859 Kennedy acquired from
two of the heirs of Hinojosa an
undivided interest amounting
to twelve leagues in the tract
OF rhiIty-five leagues, the other
interest remaining in other heirs
of HinoioSa or their assigns,
and that during that year he
executed to John Young, plain
tifls' ancestor. a deed convey
ing such interest TINS describ-
ed: "All his, said Kennedy's
right, title and interest in and
to a certain tract or parcel of
land situated and lying in the
county of Cameron and state
aforesaid, being part and par
Gel of a certain tract of land
known and called by the name
of Mestenas, granted by the
proper officer Of the CT wn of
Spain in America, the 10Th day
of Aprial, 1898, to Vicente Hi
noiosa, bounded" etc.
The petition ayers that at
the time this deed was execut-
ed Kennedy did not have tide
to any specific portion OF the
thirty five leagues, but did
have such title as an undivided
interest Of twelve leagues and
it asserts that the effect Of the /
deed was to convey such inter

The exceptions to this petit
ton consisted of a general de
murrer and five special excep
tons, but the special exceptions
were all based upon the prop
ositiOn that the action was
one for reformation of the deed
from Kennedy to Young on the
ground of mistake,a and that the
allegations were not efficient
ly definite and certain Second,
that such cause of action was
stale. Third, that such cause
of action was barred by the
statute Of limitation. The other
exceptions simply reiterated
propositions involved in those
stated.
Only one assignment. Of err
ror is made by appellants,
which is objected to by appel
lees as insufficient. It is rs

no need for a reformation of
