LILIUOKALANPs DEPARTURE.

Some of the good people of the
community have seen fit to be-
come very much excited because
eX-Queen LiliuOkalani decided to
suddenly and quietly depart for
the United States on the steamer
China, Friday morning. In fact
the opposition are almost inclined
to think that the political world
is coming to an end, and that
when a representative of former
royalty in Hawaii strikes the
United States like a comet out
of a clear sky, the whole Ameri-
can population will turn topsy-
turvy in it's attempt to line the
railroad over which she may pass.
We hasten to allay any such err
roneOus opinions that may have
gained some prominence in the
minds of the few here whose de-
sires form the basis of their con-
illusions. Liliuokalani, since the
full pardon granted her by the
Government, has right to do

represent quite few barrels Of

three dollars invested in sugar
plantations. 1t is about time for
this cry about the opposition of
the planters TO become ching of
the past. as talk about Govern
ment insincerity has already done.
Opponents of annexation are now

CAMPAIGN OPENED.

The meeting last night by which
the annexation campaign was for
mally launched was characterized
not so much by wild enthusiasm
as by the general atmosphere of
sound businesslike determination.
Honolulu has seen larger and
more uproariOus political meet
ings, but those were III the days
when the country was in the
throes of civil dissensiOn and the
political feeling was wrought up
to fever heat. Now the situation
is different. Thanks to- the kindly
guidance of the ruler of all ma
tions and the good sense of our
people, the citizens are able to
gather to consider calmly and
with malice toward none the cold
proposition of the best methods to
pursue III obtaining annexation to
the United States. No bands are
playing, there is no whOOp and
hurrah born of OverwrOught feel
ings, but business-pure, honest,
patriotic business-pervades the
political mind of the country.
With the prospect for annex
alton remarkably good, the first
step is to marshal the annexation
forces, get men into the political
harness again, and by careful or
ganization prepare for whatever
demands the future may bring.
Nothing but unqualified success
has attended the first number of
the annexation program. The
first call of the Annexation Club
was responded to by a large and
thoroughly representative assem-
bly, and the board of officers elect
ed TO do the detail work of direct
ing the campaign is composed of
men whose ability as leaders is
unquestioned; men who have the
confidence of the people through
out the country, and who can be
depended upon to work early and
late until they are mustered out
of service by the announcement
by the United States Congress
that Hawaii shall hencefOrth be
regarded as American territory,
and its citizens shall be American
citizens.
The next thing now in order is
to add new names to the Annex
alton Club rolls and extend its
influence to every nook and cor
ner of the country. There are 9th
ers to be heard from; the branch
organizations of the old club ON
the other Islands, and the POrtu-
guese organization, which is Il
unit when considering the pOliti-
cal union proposition. The other
Islands will be heard from and
the Portuguese will be heard from
and the expressions will come in
no uncertain tone. Annexation is
common ground on which all
political parties and all citizens
of the Republic can meet and
heartily cooperate, casting aside
all minor factional jealousies OF
dissensiOn.

( just as she pleases and ask no
questions. If she desires to visit
relatives in Boston or London, we
know of no one here who Will of
fer any objection. Officially she is
a self declared nOnenity, and the
attention paid he rim the United
States will be the respectful def
| erence due woman, together
with little extra prominence re
sulting from the free advertising
obtained through the peculiar
events in her political career.
Some say President Cleveland has
sent for her, but if past history
counts for anything, it is not prob
able that President Cleveland will
be particularly pleased with any
personal reminders of the days
when he held the Hawaiian mon
archy in such high esteem. In Il
few months he, too. will have
thrown off his official robes and
started out on travels for his
health. Perhaps he will come to
Hawaii, and as a private citizen
he would undoubtedly be received
cordially by such people as he
chose to call upon. But there
would be just as much political
significance to his trip here as
there is to LiliuOkalani's trip to
the States.
When LiliuOkalani arrives in
San Francisco, doubtless Ashford
will be on hand to flourish his
sword in the newspapers, and
when she approaches Boston Ju-
Illus Palmer will write a letter to
the New York Evening Post.
These are about the only discOm-
forts she is liable TO experience
during her tour, except possibly
the chilling east wind that blows
across Boston this time of year
Other than the above mentioned,
we see no reason why LiliuOka
lani will not have a very pleasant
trip and return we'll satisfied to
continue private life in Honolulu.

The communication from "a
Loyal American" gives som"
points on the American Protective
Association that are doubtless Tin
known to many here. Possibly
the dOings of this society may
have Il local interest, but it is
probably the result of attention
given to doings in the United
States, since there is no local
branch. The remarks made by the
Bishop of Panapolis at the recent
Portuguese meeting Indicate that
there is no disposition on the part
of religious advocates to crowd
each other for supremacy of creed.

From 1870 to 1877, inclusive, Spain
was an export nation in wheat and
flour. The excess of the exports over
the imports of these articles during
that period was 464,00O,000 pounds of
wheat and 752, 100000 pounds of flour.
From 1878 to 1895, inclusive, the i'm
ports of wheat amounted to the enorm-
Gus quantity of 7,600,000,00 pounds,
while the exports were but 440, 900, 900
