ADVERTISERS 40Tu ANNIyER-
SAltI.

(From P. C. Advertiser, July 2d.)
Thank God Hawaii has now an in
dependent press" With this declara-
ton nailed to the mast head, SO to
speak, Henry NJ. Whitney launched the
Pacific Commercial Advertiser into the
journalistic seas of Hawaii on July 2,
1856. Since that day the Advertiser
has passed through many troublesome
political pillows, but on this the forti-
eth anniversary the banner of indepen-
dence still waves.
The Advertiser was first issued as a
four-page weekly paper and was
brought out as an opposition paper to
the Hawaiian Gazette, which was then
a weekly owned by the Government,
and conducted in the interests of the
party then in power Mr. Whitney came
to the islands to conduct a job printing
establishment, and with no particular
aspirations in the journalistic line. The
political conditions, however, called for
representative paper, and Mr.. Whit
ney was equal to the occasion. From
1856 to 1872 he presided over the des-
TIMES of the paper and gave the people
strong political organ as well as a
good newspaper
In 1872 Mr. Whitney sold the paper
to Messrs. Black and Aud, who con-
tinued it as weekly publication until
w. M. Gibson and the Spreckels combi-
nation began looking about for a paper
to further their schemes. The Adver-
tiser was finally sold to them and was
changed to a daily. Under their kind
care the journal lost much of the pres
tige it once held and in 1888 again
passed into the hands of Mr.. Whitney,
who in 1886 had bought the Hawaiian
Gazette. About this time the Hawaiian
Gazette Company was formed. The Ad-
vertiser was continued as a daily, with
the Gazette as a weekly edition Some
years later the company began the pub
LEGATION of the Gazette semi-weekly,
and this order of affairs obtains up to
the present day.
During the forty years existence of
the Advertiser, the heading alone has
remained unchanged. The same en-
craving and the same style of caption
type adorned the front page of the Adj
vertiser when the first paper was put
on the street in the afternoon of July
2, 1856. The Sketch of Honolulu harbor
was drawn by Mr.. Whitney while seat
ed high up in the cross trees of
clipper ship at anchor in the ofing.
Started as pioneer newspaper, the
Advertiser has always kept pace with
and in later years been a leader in the
progress, both industrial and political,
of the country.
Once dividing honors in early history,
The Hawaiian Gazette and the Adver
tiser, which were among the first pa
pers published in the country, are now
combined as the leading journals, up
to-date in makeup and typographical
appearance, giving the people all the
news without bluff or buster, and hold
ing steadfastly to the independent and
sound principles of progress which
were first expounded at the birth of the
Advertiser.

This increased the excitement, and re-
port has it that the troops were stoned

The newspapers, as rule, are filed
with abuse of the military authorities,
ard of condemnation for the manrex in
which the Abyssinian campaign has

nothing short of the most thorough
public investigation will satisfy the
people.
The war office is receiving dispatches
from all parts Of the country asking
for lists of the killed and wounded, but
some timo must elapse before this can
be furnished. The news of the death
of Generals Albertone and Dabormida
has been confirmed, and it is believed
that over 500 other Italian officers Of
lesser rank have been slain.

ITALY AGITATED
The Whole Kingdom Torn Up
by the News Of Defeats in
Abyssinia.
The Number of Killed in the
Battle of AdOWa Now Put
at 5000.
And 1t May Be Many More Per-
ished.- Riots All Over the
Kingdom.

ROME, March 5-The kingdom of
Italy today is in a condition of excite
ment, grief and anger, almost beyond
description. Words cannot adequately
portray the situation, for every dispatch
received from Massowah adds to the
gravity of the disaster of the Italian
army at Adowa, Abyss MIA.
When the first news of General Bara-
tieria's defeat reached this city, report
had it that only 500 men were killed;
then the number ran up to 5000 killed
and 80 pieces of artillery captured, and
the morning dispatches place the num-
Adowa, and i'll the long, harrassing re-
treat which followed, at 5000, and it is
believed that not even these figures
tell of the full extent of the disaster. In
these reports no mention it made of the
wounded, and there is good reason,
based on stories of recent Italian de-
feats by the Abyssinians, to believe
that those who fell wounded during the
retreat of over 50 miles
Met n More Horrible Fate
than those who We're killed on the spot.
Throughout the night the garrison
here was kept under arms, and mounted
patrols traversed the principal streets.
The masses, however, do not seem to
have retired to rest. The streets were
filed with people until day break, and
after early morning every public place
was crowded with excited men and
women. A number of disturbances
which have called for police interfer-
ence have occurred. The indications
are that people are assuming a most
threatening attitude, not only in Rome,
but throughout Italy. Demonstrations
against the Crispi ministry and even
against the crown, are reported from a
number Of towns in the provinces, in
spite of the fact that the authorities are
straining every nerve to suppress all
alarming news.
The government and the military
authorities are charged with gross mis-.
management Of the Abyssinian cam.
paign, and great indignation is ex.
pressed against the newspapers which
have been goading General Baratier:a
into action by taunting him with his
inactivity. 1t is also said now that the
Italian commander was led into a trap
skillfully baited.
RiotouS Demonst rations.
Later in the day news from the pro-
vinces became more alarming. 1t was
stated that III a number of places the po.
lice have been unable to cope with the
populace, and that the troops have been
called upon to restore order. The sol.
diers, however, appear to have been as
helpless as the police, and in several
places crowds have been fred upon.

COMING BRITISH BLUE BOOK.

Very Clearly.

1t Presents the British Venezuelan Case
Very Clearly.
LONDON, March 5.-The st. James
Gazette publishes forecast Of the Brit
ish blue book upon the Venezuelan sit
uation, which is shortly to be issued.
1t is said to contain extracts from the
archives of Holland from the latter
part of the sixteenth century to the
second decade of the nineteenth CEN
tury and extracts from the archives
Of Spain from Orleans ascent
of the river Amazon, i'll 1912, and Mar
tineZs ascent of the OrinOco river to
Diego de Ordaz, down to Venezuela's
independence in 1880. All the docu-
ments in this connection, it is said, have
been ransacked in order to establish the
british case against the Venezuelan
claim for possession of the west bank
of the Essequibo 1t will be shown, it
is said, in overwhelming strength. that
the possession of that bank is Great
Britain's beyond doubt The statement
of Sir Frederick Pollock corpus pro-
fessor of Jurisprudence of Oxford uni
versity, is described by the st. James
Gazette as being remarkable for mas
terry of detail and skill in collecting
evidence, and for the force and clear
ness of his conclusions.
Continuing the st. James Gazette
says: "Sir Frederick Pollock estab.
fishes beyond question that Holland
vigorously protested whenever the
Spaniards entered the Cuyini valley;
that Spain had no answer to these pro-
tests and that, any way, she never
claimed its ownership. But, the states
general twice, in 1859 and 1867, de-
manded reparation for Spanish viola
tions of the Dutch territory in the
Cuyini.
Dutch correspondence is cited as
serting ownership of the entire water
shed of the Essequibo, laying great
stress upon the rights to the Cuyuni,
where the Dutch had found gold dig
gings and forts, and with whose Indian
tribes they had intercourse for $50
years.
The Spanish correspondence quoted
shows that the government rejected
the advice of Governor Cumana to push
the Dutch out Of Cuyuni. The gov
ernment declared that the proposals
were too audacious as they attempted
to show that Guiana was more extern
sive than was actually the case.
The Dutch archives have been so well
kept that Sir Frederick Pollock was
able to establish an irrefragible case
for the British ownership of the Guy
uni basin, though there is no adducible
evidence as to how far the Dutch held
the country between the Schomburgk
line and the Orinoco.
