The Hon. WILLIAM +. HARRITY, whose
noble labors in behalf of the candidacy of
the Hon. ROBERT EMORY PATTIsoN for
President were so i'll rewarded at Chicago
stands yet upon the brcathless heights of
principle. His heroic soul is filled with
stern Pattisonian virtue.
1t will be remembered, at least by Penn
sylvanians, that PATTIsoN's convictio as
gold man were SO unbcnding that he ex.
pressed himself as willing to take the nomi.
nation for President on a silver platform
Not less unbending is the dauntless HAIR
RITY. He pines for Democratic harmony
and union. He wants the silver lion and
the gold lion to lie down together. He
wants the Pennsylvania Democratic State
Convention to make a compromise plat
form and to nominate a "gold Democrat +"
for State Treasurer and II silver Democrat,
that is, Democrat, for AuditorGeneral
No inconvenient principles and division of
the nominations: such is the plan of the
dauntless HARRITY. In view of the fact
that the Pennsylvania Democrats who don't
believe in silver are an inconsiderable
minority, the proposition to give them
equal representation with the genuine Dem
ocrats on the State ticket is almost pathetic
in its modesty.
The dauntless HARRITY has written
tender appeal for union. He trusts that
"the action of the State Convention may
be of such character rs to tend to unite
the party" He feels that there is a very
strong disposition and desire to have n
harmonious party and n strong organiza-
tion this year." Harmony is to be had by
making deceptive platform, and strength Is
to be obtained by disgusting the mass of
Democrats for the sake Of coddling few
gentlemen Of easy politics. Such Is the
project of the dauntless HARRITY.
1t is painful to have to know that reso-
luton denouncng Mr. HARRITY will prob
ably be introduced into the Pennsylvania
Convention; still more painful to be told
that such resolution will not DO likely to
fail. Has unbending political principle so
few admirers among the Pennsylvania Dem
ocrats2 Does the name of the dauntless
HARRITY no longer ring Romani

Tribute TO the Memory Of X. w.
Meyer by a Friend.

Tribute TO the Memory Of X. w.
Meyer by Friend.
The following letter has been
received by the editor of the Bull
LETIN with leave to publish it:
Another pioneer gone! r. w.
Meyer, a man of blameless charac.
ter, of most scrupulous honesty
and rare ability. Seventy-one
years! He lived 40 years on these
islands and nobody could else but
speak good of him. Alas, when
he was 70 years old and venerable
there came forth lying news
paper writer and assaulted his
character and ability. As 1 was
known to be his friend, my atten-
ton was drawn to these spurious
articles and l asked him for ex-
plantations. He wrote me long
letter, which 1 will be happy to
show you or his family, but he re-
fused to answer in print. Ever
since he has complained to me
about the RIGHTEOUSNESS of GER
tain newspapers and only q day
or two before his death our con-
versation was on the same sub
ject.
l do believe that those misera-
BILE newspaper articles contributed
to ruin his health or to cause his
death. A man of 70 years. fault
less standing is generally sensitive
to a public insult.
The cold world will soon forget
him, but 1 cannot let him be
buried without commenting on his
trouble and the probable cause of
his death. As l cannot pay him
the last honors on Molokai, l
avail myself of this opportunity to
express my feelings, viz: that
Hawaii has lost one of it's best
citizens, a man of sterling charac-
ter.
Let him rest in peace and honor
to his memory

1t is to be feared that the cause
of annexation is being hurt at
Washington by the talk of its
friends. Reference is not had to
what is quoted here from Mr..
King, but to statements reported
anonymously as from friends
generally. The main argument
of honesty should be that under
American influence the form of
government in these islands was
changed, and the American Gov
eminent assumed control OF
Hawaiian domestic affairs Of
which it is bound to as
sumo the full responsibility.
Also, that the manifest-that is,
the natural-destiny of these isl
ands being annexation, their
affairs have reached stage when
it is the duty of the United States
to earnestly, as we'll as immediate.
ly, take into consideration the
matter of an initiatory form of the
admission of the Hawaiian ISL
ands into the Union. The argu-
ment of danger of another coun.
try's scheming to supplant the
United States in control of the
group, as employed by Mr.. King
and others, is at the same time
one of real and not imaginary
bearing upon the situation.

"WHO WILL GET THE
ISLANDS?"

Under the principal heading,
"Who Will Get the Islands ?"
there is Washington dispatch in
the San Francisco Chronicle of
May 81, making a column and a
half of small type. 1t begins by
citing private advices from Hawaii
to members of Congress, stating
that if steps are not taken soon to
show that the United States Gov
ernmentwants closer relations with
the island republic, the opportuni.
ty will pass and the group land in
the lap of some other nation.
1t is alleged on the same authori-
ty that European and Asiatic in
habitants of the islands are cult
waiting the conviction of the
natives that the present Govern
ment is composed of usurpers,
and that there is danger of the
next presidential election here
placing at the head of affairs a
weak, vacillating Hawaiian, who
will be under European control
and at the first opportunity make
to a European Government
similar offer of the isl
ands to that which the
Dole Government is making to
the United States. The argument
against annexation made by John
d. Spreckels-that the natives do
not want it's met at Washing
ton by assertions that if employers
of labor would permit free vote
the natives would form part of a
majority to be recorded in
favor of the proposition. A large
portion of the dispatch in ques-
ton consists of an interview with
Congressman William H. King of
Utah, author of recently tender
ed motion for Hawaiian annexa-
ton. This interview concludes
with the following utterances of
Mr.. King:
"The elemental components of
the population are hetel ogeneous,
the native Hawaiians are a weak
people. The Europeans and the
Orientals play upon their creduli-
ty and make them believe that the
present republican form of gov
eminent is unjust to them. They
do this with the hope of prevent
ing the return of the present Gov
ernment at the next election, and
the election of men who will not
favor closer relations with this
country. With the ever present
chance of Japanese Intervention
and English interference it is
clear that the present Government
can only be maintained by the
active movements of the United
States at this time. Thus it all
comes back to the proposition that
if the traditional policy Of the
Nation is to be preserved and the
non-intervention of all other
countries to be prevented, it can

New York, May pa special to the
World, from Washington, says:
For the first time a representative of
the Cuban junta has been received at
the state department.
Senior Tomas Estrada Palma, head
of the Cuban junta in New York, chief
delegate in the United States of the
government, called at the department.
Secretary Sherman in extending the
invitation to Senior Palma was obliged
to do so unofficially and to receive him
as an American citizen. The presi-
dent was also "unofficially" aware of
his visit.
The proposition that the Cubans buy
the island was discussed by Secretary
Sherman, Assistant Secretary Day and
Senior Palma. 1t was indicated by
Senior Palma that the insurgents are
willing to purchase their freedom at a
reasonable price. A full understand
ing prevailed that the necessary funds
could be easily secured to float the
bonds whenever Spain agrees to enter
into negotiations lookink to a sale of
Cuba. The sanction of the junta was
given to the proposed institution of
correspondence, having in view the re-
linquishment of control in Cuba by
Spain for a monetary consideration
The amount which the Cubans are will
ling to pay as was discussed, was not
diyulged
