garbled accounts before he was permitted
Queen S agents We're all the time in the
most confidential relations with the adj
mnistration. Secretary Gresham never
acknowledged the receipt of the first letter
Mr.. Thurston addressed to him upon
being appointed minister. Again Mr..
Thurston states that when be was in
Chicago and heard that Gresham had
| recommended the restoration of the
monarchy he telegraphed to Mr. Hastings,
to ascertain the truth OF the report. Mr..
Hastings called upon Mr.. Gresham, who
replied, II assure you there is no fou II la
ton for the statement. Do you TIL nix
would take 80 important a step without
| informing you:' At that very time Mr..
Gresham letter of recommendation had
been given out to the press associations
and was then on the wires. No copy Of
Blounts report was sent TO the Hawaiian
| legation, and Mr.. Thurston was told to
get his information from the papers.
These may serve as sample of the
facts made public by Minister Thurs
| ton, showing that the administration
ignored, insulted and endeavored to pick
quarrel with him from the first Mr.
Thurston also explains how he happened
to give out certain Information. While
claiming his right to make public such
facts as he did he declares that these facts
were elected from him in course of dis
cussion and with no thought on his part
of their being published. The statement
throughout is enough to excite the indig-
nation of anyone who desires fair play
while it will be remembered to the lasting
| shame of President Cleveland and his
tools. Neither does it, when taken In
connection with multitude of other
facts, leave any doubt that If President
Cleveland could to-day bring about the
overthrow Of the gallant little American
republic of Hawaii, he would not scruple
an instant to effect such result. But
the cause of justice seems to have tri-
umphed beyond his power to destroy. and
| that too, despite the fact that all the
machinery and influence al the hands of
the administration were unscrupulously
used to reinstate a rotten monarchy at
| Honolulu.

The Journal Is in receipt from Thomas

a neat little folder prospectus setting
forth the proposed features Of the forth
coming British Empire Exposition and In-
ternational Display Of all Nations, to he
held in Montreal from May ~ to October
-, 1896. The scope of this exposition
certainly augurs well for its success.
Art, science industry, transportation, in
ventive skill, agriculture, in fact almost
every department of human endeavor will
be amply provided for In its various de-
partments. As this Is the first great inter
national exposition that has ever been
held in Canada, special interest will
attach to 1t. The United States govern
ment and also many OF the individual
states Of the Union, will have fine exhibits
at this exposition. 1t IL certainly desir
able that our own State of Maine should
not miss this important opportunity for

The Execution OF Shea.

Bat Shea, the election thug who shot
and killed young man named Robert
Ross at polling precinct in Troy, two
years ago, paid the penalty for his crime,
yesterday, in the electric chair. There
has been at no time, any reason why q
difference should be made between his
case and that OF any other cold blooded
assassin. The fact has remained never
theless, that Shea was simply the out
growth or, more properly speak ing per
haps, the resultant of a system of election
frauds and intimidation the responsibility
for which should be laid at the door of
men now occupying high positions of
trust in the public service To this fact
is undoubtedly due the almost super
human efforts that were made to secure
the Communication of his sentence. efforts
that had behind them the strength of
powerful organizations. Every cxpedient
that offered hope Or that could afford de
lay was resorted to. Four times the con-
demned man stood in the shadow of death,
| and secured stay of execution. Only
when all possibilities were exhausted did
the law finally take it's course
The execution of Shea will serve as a
warning to political heelcrs in and out OF
| New York state that individual rights
cannot be tramplcd under foot with i'm
punity or human life held lightly, even
at the behest of political bosses who are
presumed to have a "pull" with the civil
authorities. Public opinion may often
fail to assert itself, and it is true that OIL.
American institutions suffer most of all
from the Indifference of intelligent citi
zers, whose mad pursuit of wealth blinds
them to just appreciation of their re-
sponsibilitles as members of the BODY
polite. When, however some great
issue, or some startling crime, like that
of Shea, arouses public opinion sufli

The Augusta Y. N. C. A.

The work of plcdging funds for the
support of the Augusta Y. NJ. C. A., dur
ing the year 1896 is now In progress and
merits the hearty cooperation of all VII
have at heart the highest int rests of our
city. 1t would be Impossible to estimate
the good work that is accomplish cd by
this noble organization. Every city must,
in the nature of things, he Il center to
which are drawn from the outlying rural
districts many young men whose habits
OF industry soon make them factors In Its
business progress and prosperity The
maintenance of Y. NJ. G. A. rooms affords
an opportunity for all young men, enter
ing the community rs strangers, to lofih
acquaintance under the most favorable
circumstances. and to secure, ut the start
those good impulses, that so often deter
mine the course of a life time.
Augusta is now supplied with a beauti-
full Masonic Temple, a fine public library
building, and a new city hall IN process
of construction We feel, and we believe
this sentiment will be shared quite gen
erallv by our citizens, that the next
structure that should enlist the general
CO cooperation of Augusta people should be
Y. NJ e. A. building that would be at
once both an ornament and credit to
the community Such a building should
be fully equipped for the work OF the
organization with IA first class gym
nasium, good reading rooms, comfortable
parlors, commodious rooms for meetings,
and in fact every thing that could make
it an attractive resort for young men.
! The value of the influences that would be
radiated from such a structure, under an
earnest and able management, it would
be impossible to estimate. Its benefits
would be so diffused into every part OF
the social and industrial life Of the com
munty that no one would fail to share in
them.
| All over this country places no larger
than the city of Augusta are supplied
with these Y. NJ. c. 4. buildings. and We
believe that what other communitic;
have done in this direction, 1t is entirely
possible for this community to do. 1t is
a work that may well enlist the earnest
support of all classes of our citizens, and
we commend it to their thoughtful con
| sheraton.
