that turned out is sufficient to show
there is liberal backing to the move
ment."
M. G. Silva, of the Temple of Fashion
in speaking of the affair, referred to the
manner in which the Portuguese had
been treated, and alluded particularly
to the discharge of ]. NJ. Vivas aainter-
prefer.
Our people have not been treated
right in the past, and are not being
treated right now" he said yesterday.
Two of them, working in the Board of
Health, asked permission of L. L. La
Pierre, of the garbage department of
the Board of Health, to enter the pro-
cession, and were told by him if they
went away they could stay The Portu-
guese decided to work, but the Superin-
tendent said they could go, but not re-
turn. This shuts out two more men.
How many Portuguese do you find in
the military? One, Captain Camara.
All the rest were discharged and no
cause assigned. We feel that our people
have been kicked about like dogs, and
We cannot stand it any longer. You re-
member lot of them joined the Ameri-
can League, and afterward withdrew.
1t was because We learned that it was
simply to get our votes for League can
didates that we were asked to join.
I'VE have been earnest in our ap-
peals,' said Mr.. Silva, and the Portu-
guese feel as one man that injustice
has been done, and that we have been
crowded out from all lines of work,
and we object.
Men who have been shoulder to
shoulder with the Government through
two revolutions are now sitting at home
doing nothing. Is it right? We could
have had man-o'-war here long ago,
but we supposed that, as citizens of Ha-
wall, we needed no such formidable
showing, and simply told our Govern
ment that we were all right. We will
show no spirit of hostility, but we want
our rights. When we met at the church
in celebrating the victory of the Portu-
guese in South Africa, the demonstra-
ton of to-day was hardly considered;
certainly the two were in no way re-
lated"
Other Portuguese of more or less
prominence were not willing to give ex-
preston to their thoughts until they
learned what action the Government
would take.
Inquiry at the Office of the Hawaiian
Planters Association showed that not
one applicant for work made his ap-
pearance there yesterday in answer to
the advertisement for 300 men to work
on plantations.

THE LAY OF THE LAST Minstrel.
A Tale of Ye Conservative Club
of HilO.

A Tale OF Ye Conservative Cihb
of Hilo.
The minstrels voice was faint and
weak,
But the sour mash warmed it up;
He'd wink when he wanted another
drink,
And he drained full many cup.
CANTO l,
Said he: ''Oh, come and hear me bray
OF beautiful Hilo, far away;
It's of factions and of cliques and their
queer and funny freaks
That form the motif for this sweet
and tuneful lay.
For in Hilo when it rains there are
many tangled skeins,
So the very wisest statesmen get the
blues;
And what other people think doesn't
matter worth wink,
When the Club Conservative makes
known its views.
But what awful restitution, and what
fierce denunciation
Of Honolulu to be shorn of all list
glory,
At this clubs meetings political, when
some member influential
In pathetic accents walls the bitter
story:
That never was it meant that Hilo pay
one cent
For Honolulu's benefit or shores;
And if the club lacks brains it makes
up in braying strains,
And that Hilo will hereafter frame
the laws.
For there's Wainaku and Waiakea to
dictate to the town;
The bosses they are grand mOguls, all
tremble at their frown;
1t matters not what people think-men
are but little things,
When viewed from their own stand
point, so say these sugar kings.
Well have no opposition those we can't
rule we'll break;
We are the brains, the muck-a-muck;
let unbelievers quake;
Well start the Club Conservative with
membership so blest,
That all will do the listing, and we
will do the rest.
Well bunco the Executive to thinking
we are strong;
Well start the Hilo Tribune to help
the scheme along;
The Sheriff and the Custom House, the
Surveyor of Public Lands,
Their heads must go, the base plebi-
ans, they'll feel our heavy hands.

CANTO ii.

Envoy
The minstrel merely whispered now, hi.
voice was weak with pain,
So to once more give him strength
they set 'em up again;
Not once, nor twice, but many times
they poured the water down,
So he could sing of things in sleepy
Hilo Town.
Oh, did ! dare to say just now the Trib-
une was a dream,
That it bucked at annexation, and
prayed for new regime?
That manager was little king, that
the sword of Damocles
Would cut off the head of everyone
that didn't agree with us?
Yes, verify l say to you, these things
are as l state;
The coolie boss expects to rule, like
Allah, he is great;
And so he pays but little tax-though
by the dividends
Caucasian pay rolls are reduced-for
more slave labor sends.
I'll gle We, lads, a willy-wacht, so dinna
ye gang ava;
It's wha hae Scots in Hilo here, there
muckle from near and far;
No further will | wander, nor beg from
door to door.
So bawled the hoary minstrel, and
thus made his devoir.
CANTO Ill.
The shades of night were falling fast,
When through the Road Boards
streets there passed
A youth who said, with many scowl,
"You bet your boots, but I'll make
Rome howl"
"Oh, stay sweet maidens said, land
rest"
But the kid responded, Il protest."
Twas Slickenstein intent on gore,
AS he entered the Tribune's sanctum
door.
He carried load, it was easy to see;
But it's nature was that of a Dix
oncree;
With this he was armed for the deadly
ARRAY,
For election was set for the very next
day.
And when that day had ended, and re-
turns had all come in,
There were weeps and walls and
twisting of tails, for the man he
hadn't got in;
Ye holders of stock had meeting, and
the editor had to go;
He had published Slieby's letter. and
that's what licked them so.
But now the storm is over, there is lit
tie more to say;
The Conservative Club now runs the
thing and never more will they
Through the columns of the Tribune
permit one word or break
That may further damage the prestige
they think they have at stake.

WENT DEMOCRATIC.
Republican Losses Reported From
All Parts of Michigan.

DETROIT, Mich, April 6.-Todays city and
township elections in Michigan resulted In
democratic gains in many Of the smaller
cities, and, in some cases, in unexpectedly
decisive Democratic victories in the cities.
The townships for the most part retain their
Republican majorities. In Grand Rapids the
entire Republican ticket was elected by ma
Jorities of from 200 to 1000, excepting Slow
(Rep.) for mayor, who is believed to be elected
over Stebbins Oem.) by less than 100 ma
jority. Prof. Samuel Dickie, the Prohibition
list national leader, was elected mayor of
Albion by 13 plurality over McCutcheon
Oem.). In Saginaw the Democrats elected
their entire city ticket. In Bay City the
Democrats elected a recorder. The council
will be tie Jackson went Republican by
good majorities. Kalamazoo, Lansing, Ben
ton Harbor, Muskegon and Owosso went Re-
publican by decisive majorities. Sault Ste
Marie elected all Republicans, a reversal of
the result of a year ago. Manistee, Flint
Grand Haven, Stanton, St. Ignace, Marshall,
Traverse City and Coldwater elected Demo-
cratic mayors, in some cases reversing last
years majorities. There was but one ticket
at Marquette. Escanaba elected Gallup (Rep)
by SEQ majority. Although local issues pre-
dominated in many towns politics cut a de-
cided figure in nearly all cases and Demo-
cratic gains were the rule, generally speaking

Great Day for Langdon.

Special to the Globe.
lANGDON, N. D., April 6-The opening
oi the ne" passenger service to Langdon from
Grand FORKS by the inauguration of the Lang
don express was signal event in the history
OF this line The train, which left Grand
Folks behind time, was still further delayed
by the great crowds which boarded it at every
station. AT Park River seventy-five people
made up an excursion party and went to
Langdon with their band. At Milton the
band got aboard along with many citizens.
Ihe train arrived here nearly two hours late,
with SIX coaches, and was met by large
crowd of citizens, With the bands the visitors
spent two hours in town very pleasantly. and
to the music of three bands the train started
on it's return trip.

No sooners on the Reserve.

Special to the Globe,
FOSSTON, Minn., April 6.-The report
brought in by cruisers that the sooners are
making settlement on the Red Lake reserva-
ticn, building shanties and log cabins, is
denounced as untrue by the farmers along
the boundary line. The only squatters are
those upon what is known as the Little Frac-
tion on the southeast side of the reserve. The
report that other settlements have been made
is said to have been gotten up by interested
parties who wish the United States marshals
to patrol the boundary line in the interest of
locaters. The reported fight between Fosston
and Park Rapids settlers on the Little Frac-
tion was eanard- also, said to have been got
ten up in order to bring United States mar
shals here from st. Paul.

Good Stock Season.

RAPID CITY, S. D., April 6.-The winter
of 1856 will be recorded as the best the cat
tlemen have ever experienced. Cattle are in
splendid condition now, when they would be
thin if at all; grass has an early start, and
the indications are that the beef shipping sea-
son will open much earlier than usual. All
the companies are buying young stock lib
orally in Texas, Arizona and New Mexico for
shipment to their ranges here, notwithstand-
ing the fact that they are compelled to pay
about 81 more per head than year ago.

Hartford was keen one, the Democrats
succeeding in redeeming the mayoralty. In
