ing. IL the ldNdudH DdlQ is
relic of monarchy and a needles
expense, the public parks of thi
t city, the occupancy of the forme
palace and the expense consequen
; to keeping the surrounding ground
in condition must, according to hi
reasoning, come under the sam
category. Ii the ideas of the ney
Moses are to be followed out, tn
Executive building should b
rented and the Government NOV
its department offices to the drill
shed. Think of the revenue tn,
Government might gather by rent
ing the Executive building to som,
hotel corporation. The income from
this source would build a road al
around Hilo. OF course, there would
be no thought of putting that road
anywhere outside the Hilo district
The public parks might be let out
to Cinnamon for rice patches. More
money for Hilo roads. 1t may be
possible that, in advocating doing
away with the Hawaiian band, our
friend voices the opinion of three
people in all Hawaii, but not more
than that number.
As to the treatment of the Ha-
waiians at the Presidents recep-
ton, we must admit that the ADJ
vERTIsER representative was not
present at that function. We have
it from equally good authority,
however, that the statement that
an old native woman was brought
into the reception hall and there
" guyed" and laughed at is abso-
lutely without foundation. Sup
posing native woman had APP
peared at the reception, what could
have been more touching, or have
shown more clearly the loyalty of
the natives than a woman poorly
clad, as she may have been, press
ing forward in the midst of those
festivities to pay her respects to the
chief executive of the land ? Such |
IN act would have been applauded
n the country from which our
lawyer and editor
anne, but Immediately he arrives
n Hawaii, he finds in it an
occasion to curse the Government.
The invitation of Hawaiians to this
eception was put in the hands of
lative member of the committee of
arrangements, and if written" in
itations were not forwarded to the
1awaiians it was doubtless due to
he fact that other methods more
cceptable to those people were
sed.
Judging from the former editor ,
u remarks of our correspondent ]
nd the contribution that appears
l another column we can but sug-
est that our friend has missed his
alling. He should have been a
ader in Coxey's army. He would +
Undoubtedly have proven bright
nd shining light in that organiza- E
on and found favor with a mighty .
lrong of irresponsibles when he .

NEWSPAPERS
or Pennsylvania on tho United statei
Senatorship.


From Taggarts Times (Philudclphia)
The blunt and positive declarati on made
by Senator Quay that he is not in favor Of
the election Of John Wanamakor to the
senate dispels any little doubt that may
have fingered upon tho point and places
the contestants fairly in the field.
From now on the fight for Don Cam.
erons shoes promises to be hot and fu.
rlous Wannmaker for various reasons
is dead set on getting into the senate
which his money and influential business
connections give him n pull which Il
not to be despised Yet we question If any
ordinarily shrcwd and well informed OBJ
server entertains any serious doubt as tt
the result.
Just look at the elements which make
up Wanamaker's support First of all
there Is his money, which according to re-
port is being used in the most lavish man.
ner Apart from that what is there?
The subsidized and bulldozed daily
newspapers Of Philadelphia and New
York, but for reasons which we have al
ready given, theirinflueuce doesn't amount
to much. The people are on to them, and
they we'll understand that it is the Wana-
maker advertisements that talk Besides
1t is "A curious and significant thing that
while the daily papers print yards of sick
ening slush in their local news columns
about Wanamaker's virtues, slush sent
out by the Wanamaker literary bureau
none of them support him editorially
They don't oppose MIN as they would like
to do, because they have nothing more
than is expressly ordered to say in his
favor.

are all for Wanamal1er in chorus, amen

which experienced people answer rats

patronage of the state. Did they ever hea
of such a thing as senatorial oourtesy2'
If they succeed in their efforts to divid
the party in Pennsylvania and to kick NJ
row at Washington next spring the,
will learn something about it that will
not be to their liking.

A CHINESE REPUBLIC.
Proposed Plan Of the Chinese Pro-
gressive Society,
A BIG WORKING ORGANIZATION.

IL Has Large Membership In This Coun-
try and In Europe, and Is Constantly
Increasing Its Mcmbcrship-A Decisive
Blow VIII soon be struck.
CHICAGO, Dec 7-According TO Wong
Chin Foo, the editor Of The Chinese News
in this city, China is ON the eve Of an up
hoaval such MS is now going on i'm Cuba.
He was shown the reports in the cables
from London to the effect that Sung Nat
Sen, the Chinaman who was kidnapped in
London and only released from the Chi
nese embassy at the specific demand of
Lord salisbury, was a member of a society
having for its object the liberation of China
from its present dynasty.
He said that the report was true, and
that he would have preferred to have kept
the story socyt for some time longer, but
as it is out he wishes to confirm itin every
particular The gist of his statement is
that there is in the Flowery Kingdom a
society called Hing Chun Wooy, which is
allied to th1 Liberty League of American
izen Cinnamon in this country, and to u
similar or nnilation in England. He
said that the object Of the organization
was to do away with the exclusiveness of
the Chinese kingdom and open it to mod
ern civilization. The present dynasty,
according to him, will be asked to got out,
and if it refu it will be put out Only
peaceable me, mods will Mt first be em-
ployed but if these are not successful,
then an appeal will be made to arms, and
England and the United States will DO
asked to recognize the reform party as
belligeronts,
Wong Chin Foo said that tho reason
that Sung Yet Sen was kidnapped by tho
Chinese embassy in London was solely be-
cause he was known TO be a member of
the reform party, and that If the Chinese
government had succeeded in getting him
to China his head would have been cut OFF
at once. The reform movement is sched-
uled to begin active operations in the very
/ near future.

gregational church, has announced his in
tentlon of inviting Samuel Gompers pres
ident of the American Federation of Labor
to deliver an address in his church one
evening during the convention of the Fed

for labor, and he is deeply interested in

Three Killed by Illuminating Gas.

BOSTON, Dec. IA strong odor of gas,
noticed by passerby at a house in the
Roxbury district, led to an investigation,
which revealed the fact that the inmates
of the house, three in number, had been
killed by the fumes, while in the adjoin-
ing house four persons were found in an
unconscious condition, one being more
seriously affected than the others. The dead
are Mrs, Sarah Lawrence, aged 40 years !;
Miss Sophie Lawrence, 8 years, daughter

TO ESTABLISH A REPUBLIC.
That Is the Object of the Chinese Pro-
gressiYe Society.

gressiye Society.
New YORK, Dec. 7-lnquirios made
among the Chinese in this city by a repre-
sentative of the Associated Press estab
lished the fact that the Hing Chung
Woey," which in plain English means
"Chinese Progressive society" has a large
and rapidly increasing membership, both
in this country and China.
Prominent Cinnamon here when first
approached by the reporter were very re-
ticent, but when they were assured that
their names would not bo made public
they consented to talk about the matter.
Several of them acknowledged that there
was such n society in existence, but not
one of them would say that he was MEM
Der. As to the purport of thclOrganization,
1t was generally conceded that the Chinese
subjects were dissatisfied with the ruling
OF the emperor, and they We're cognizant
of no other way to overthrow the emperors $
power than by secret means.
None of those questioned would ac-
knowledge that tho headquarters of the
society existed in this country, but one or
two inadvertently spoke of leaders in San
Francisco and New York One of the best
known Chinese merchants in this city said
that the movement was for the overthrow
of the present governHent in China and
the substitution of a republican form Of
government He said that the organiza-
ton was more successful in point of num-
bers of enthusiasts than the most san
guine anticipations of the leaders had
looked for, and he claimed that in the
United States alone its adherents could
be numbered with six figures.
One more bold than the others volun-
teered this statement: IL cannot" he
said, disclose anything with reference to
the work of the organization, but when
the time comes TO strike blow for the
| overthrow of the present dynasty and the
| formation of republic, on American
| lines, the system of government now ex-
| isting in China will receive severe shock,
and think we will win. We're in China
my head would pay the penalty for these
words. But l think l have said enough
/ Just now to give you an idea of how fan
reaching our society's work has gone
/ Like all secret bodies we have to be reti
cent and while our work is being carried
on with a groat deal of secrecy, we have
. no fear of its ultimate success

sengers state that Weyler himself is now
encamped ten miles from Artemisa and
his army is scattered along the trocha and
through the Pinar Del no district When
Macoo retreated from Wcyler in his first
campaign his plan was to surprise Weyler
at the first opportunity, and now Maceo

they are having daily skirmishes. Weyler
is completely hemmed in, and If he shall
attempt to move he will be compelled to
go TO Artemisa.
Small bands have crossed tho troCha
into Havana districts, and are attacking
the outposts and villages of that district.
Insurgents numbering 1000 are encamped
in Havana proSince, twenty miles from
Havana, and will go to Maceos assistance
when needed. Spies in Havana are keep
ing the insurgents posted rs TO the move
ment of the Spanish troops. A movement

the trocha by the Cubans on Saturday
was by guerilla bands or by the vanguard
of Maceo's army, in a movement to unit

censorship Of the press.

counter them in another, making a sue
cession of running fights, all within fv
or ten miles of the city. About hundre
soldiers have been killed or wounded g
