succumb to the newt able, as he did
Great Britain, which is recognized
as the most powerful foe the United
States has, and he will go out OF
Office next spring as the most sue
cessful and determined diplomat
who has ever been at the head OF
the State Department.
KEY West, (Fla), Nov. 11.-Pas-
sengers who arrived from Havana
tonight, bring intelligence that the
capture OF Guiamro was OF more i'm
portance than frat reported. When
the news reached Havana it caused
great excitement. 1t was only par
TALLY printed, but was wired to
Madrid and made sensation. 1t is
said that it so stirred the people
that they forced the Government to
obliged Weyler to take the field.
The steamer Julia, which arrived
at Havana Sunday, reports no COM
munication with the City Of Puerto
Principle since the 9th. Many
bridges have been blown up, cul-
verts burned, and about seven kilo-
meters of railway track torn up.
Great anxiety prevails in Nuevitas
regarding the fate OF Puerto Prin-
cipe. The steamer brought letters
detailing the attack on Guiamro. 1t
appears that General Calixto Garcia
with large rebel force and two
pieces of artillery attacked the place
on October 17th. The next day he
completed the trenches and de-
stroyed ten forts surrounding the
town. The garrison OF 150 soldiers
and twenty armed citizens, surrend-
cred, but were ordered released ex-
cept Quartermaster Miguel Mola,
who, being a Cuban, attended the
wounded. They were then sent ito
Puerto Principe under an escort.
The officers were paroled. Major
Martinez, in comand of the detach-
ment, was wounded in the arm and
died at the hospital as a result OF
amputation.
The citizens OF the town were
forced to aid the rebels destroy the
trenches, houses, etc. The church
tower was blown up with dynamite.
Much war material was secured.
The so-called fusion OF local
parties is q farce. 1t was all done
by coercion. Civil Governor Preua,
acting under the instructions OF
Weyler, left for the field.
There is a great under-current Of
ill-feeling against Wey Ter in Spanish
circles 1t is known he has been
pushed to take the field. Maceo is
reported strongly fortified in the
mountains. Last night Weyler en-
csmped in be Gohernardi bills and
it was reported he had an engage
ment with the rebels under Perico
del Fado and Perico Daz. 1t is re-
ported that Weyler was forced to
fall back. News has also been re-
ceived that General Munoz made
another attack upon the Rubi hills,
where Maceo is reported to be
strongly eutrenched. A fierce en-
gagement is said to have occurred,
but no details are known. Great
excitement prevails in Havana, be-
cause of news received from the
United States regarding President
Cleveland's future attitude on the
Cuban question.

MAILING THE LIES.

Siuce Mr.. Castle, Mr.. Armstrong,
and other specific advocates for an
nexation have chosen to appear in
print, it is perhaps wise to nail
few of the lies now appearing in for
eigu newspapers in regard to Ha-
waii.

Mr.. Castle and the other revolu-
tionists of January, 1893, find them
selves on slippery ground, and very
much afraid OF o fall. To use Mr..
Nordhof's homely illustration, they
thoughtlessly took the bear by the
paws and the bear has tired them
out; but they are SO much afraid Of

In a prominent English news
paper we notice the following para
graph:
HHAwAu,--Sinister Rumors-Dal-
ziel's Telegram). Washington, Oct.
21.-A leading official of the Govern
ment made the following remarkable
statement this morning as to the in
tentions of Pre- sident Cleveland. He
said: "Mr. John w. Foster, a former
Secretary of State, has secretly gone
to San Francisco, whence he will
sail on Thursday for Hawaii The
trip has been undertaken in order
that he may confer with President
Dole regarding the annexation of
Hawaii by the United States. 1t is
the purpose of President Cleveland
to send message to Congress early
in January, advising annexation.
About the same time he will advise
the recognition of Cuba. He in
tends to have the final months of
his administration filed with sensa.
tions. The Hawaiian matter has
been kept secret known only to
very few, and it has become known
to me purely by accident"

The singular spectacle was then
presented of a President ignoring
his constitutional adviser and strik-
ing hands with bond broker. A
man who has always lodged minis
terial responsibility; but who has
always wanted two spoons for use
at the Government porringer.

la the Tasmania Church News of
August the following speech of
Chataway, delivered in the House of
Assembly of Queensland, is pub
lished:
When the Louisiana State lotteries
were finally suppressed, their pro-
moters looked for new ground
from which to work, and the ground
on which they fixed was Hawaii.
The House of Representatives there
was composed half of natives and
half of American citizens Of the ISL
ands. The promoters had ample
money at their command-the aver
age of tickets had been twelve mil
lion dollars year, and they found
no difficulty in securing the support
OF all the colored Representatives in
that House OF Assembly. The fight
between the white and colored Re-
representatives. went on for months.
The American citizens declared that
the islands should not be made the
Alsatia Of the Pacific, that it should
not be turned into gambling den.

Mr.. w. r. Castles letter of this
morning, published in tho organ
controlled by his family, on the sub
ject of annexation, may be taken as
an evidence Of the dawn Of reason.
THE INDEPENDENT has consistently
taken the ground that whether an
nexation to the United States is to
be, or not to be, must be settled in
these Islands.

A GOOD THING.

Do you know a good thing
when you see it? Some people
do and some don't, but those
who tumble to it are bound to
get ahead in the race for wealth.
We can put you on to thing
or two. Just now we want you to
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1896-11-20

AS far as the lie which appeared
in the Australian church paper is
concerned it is hardly necessary
TO take notice of it. Everyone
familiar with the history Of Hawaii
during the past few years must
know that the lottery scheme was
supported by majority Of the
"white" merchants and sojourners
here. The "father of annexation"
headed the petition praying for the
passage of the lottery bill. There
will hardly be any difficulty for the
Tasmania Church News to obtain
facts from Honolulu, and we humbly
suggest to the Vandemonian journal
to write in the future, about some
thing with which its editorial staff
is acquainted.

It is perhaps waste Of space to re-
fer to such unscrupulous lies in re-
gard to Hawaiian affairs We would
like to know the authors who under
the cover of anonymity even use a
religious paper in which to stab the
Hawaiian people and their country.
The cowardly cur would be driven
out Of this country If the author
ship of the above paragraphs could
be proven.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1896-11-20

Mr.. John w. Foster was not here
in the interest of annexation. He
was here in the interest Of Mr.. Fos-
ter, the agent oflZephenia Spalding.
Mr.. Foster is a nobody" in the
United States and il he and his
friends, Messrs Thurston and Spald-
ing will stoop to tell the truth, the
world, as far as they are concerned
will be informed OF the fact that
Hawaii and the Hawaiians do not
want annexation.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1896-11-20

1t is not likely that "patriot"
like Mr.. Foster would advocate a
subsidy for Mr., Spalding at the rate
OF $4,000 year for a period Of 20
years if he felt sure that the subsidy
eventually would have to be paid
from the Treasury of the United
States. Mr.. Foster undoubtedly
looks out for Foster. Yet, there
may be spark of unselishness and
true Americanism in his constitution.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1896-11-20

As far as Mr.. Cleveland is concern
ed, even his political enemies must
admit that he is not built of the
material which changes an honest
opinion for the purpose OF creating
a sensation. His honorable attitude
in regard to Ha awaii will remain un-
changed and he will go out Of Office
upholdipg his expressed theory that
the Hawaiian people have been
grossly wronged and that the Amer
lean nation ought to make the
amende honorable.

recognizing it as dangerous he took

From the advertisement of Chamberlain's

it's results, is putting it very mildly, in

was a speedy and permanent cure. We

DEMOCRATS IT WORK.
Mr.. r. It. Broussard Visits
Terrebonne And Makes
Many Friends.

The Democratic nominee for Congress
Hon, r. F. Broussard arrived in Houma
last Monday and in company with a
number of friends and admirers made a
tour of the parish and met many Of
Terrebonne's leading citizens. Wherever
Mr. Broussard went the warm hand of
hospitality was extended to him and his
speeches brought forth great bursts ofen-
thusiasm.
Monday Mr.. Broussard drove down
Bayou Little Gallon. he aud his friends
we're treated to a sumptuous repast ut
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. A. f. Tete and
the hOspitable reception given them by
the genial host and hostess will live long
in the memory of those who were so fOrtu-
nate as to compose the party.
Crossing oveE to Bayou Terrebonne- the
party reached Canal Belanger about
dnsk. Many of the good citizens Of the
Canal assembled ut Mrs. Glenn's school
house and listened t what some of tho
older citizens declared was the best speech
they ever heard.
Mr.. Teles Blanchard was made char
man of the meeting and Mr., Ralph Bis
land, secretary. Mr, Blanchard in a few
eloquent words introduced our next con-
gresham, Robert BrOusscri. MIR. Brous.
sard spoke in French and made a pro-
found impression on the audience. Canal
Belanger will give almost q solid vote fol
BrOuSsaEd and BCyan.
The following day Mr.. BrOussard, ac-
cOmpanied by one of the brass bands OF
HOuma aud q number OfpOIitical friends
drove to ArdOyne aud then to Chacahoula
Station. He made speeches at both places
and in zach instance captured his andi
ence. After the Chacahonla meeting the
party drove to Gibson where they were
royalty received by the citizens Of tina
town. Fully 800 people crowded into
o'Rourko's Hall to hear the speaking.
