The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1897-12-06

The Hawaiian telegraph cable which
has been before our eyes for years,
seems likely TO materialize in the near
future. This will be one of the first
fruits of annexation. Without an
nexation the cable project might have
been delayed for years, with anneNa-
ton it will be hurried on as rapidly as
possible. James A. Scrmiser is presi-
dent of the Pacific Cable Company of
New York, and it looks very much as
if the promoters intend to give us a
fair deal. With a cable Hawaii will
be in daily touch with the outer world
and will feel the mental as well as the
commercial advantage.

lie in this direction. II lies to the
East and the North. \ little thought
and attention TO labor statistics would
should the intelligent men among the
unions that more cheap labor Is intro
duced through the port of New York
every ninety days than is contained
i'm the whole of the Hawaiian Islands.
If the same parties will take the sta
tistics of natives of the Orient who
enter through Victoria, and follow mp
the flow of that population along the
Canadian Pacific, they will learn OF a
large food of Orientals who keep COM
ing steadily from all along the bor-
der line. The fact is, even were the
Orientals here to go en- masse to the
United States, they would only be a
drop in the stream of cheap labor that
is ever flowing in. But of course such
a proposition is absurd. Beyond a
very few, the bulk of the Orientals
now in the Islands would stay here,
and if they made any move at all, 1t
would be back to their own country,
for they all save money here, and
they like to go home to spend it.

PURE FOOD.

\ paragraph in the San Francisco
Chronicle is very much to the point
in connection with the remarks made
in these columns relative to pure
food The paragraph reads that:
'Chief Food Inspector Dockery and
Market Inspector Davis captured a
large quantity of canned milk, meats
and other provisions which were I'M
fit for food and exposed for sale in the
auction rooms. The goods were order
ed sent to the fertlizing works. The
auctioneers said the goods had been
sent to them from Calistoga to be sold
and they were not aware of their
condition."
This is exactly what The Star
claims. Dealers are not aware of the
stuff they sell and it is necessary to
have a food inspector to keep check
upon impure goods. We protect peo-
pie from having bad fish sold to them,
and we should decidedly extend our
operations and see that all food that
is sold is pure.

NEARING THE END.

The latest news from the Coast and
the East shows that the annexation
cause is regarded as certain of sue
cess. The fact is accepted even by
that portion of the press which is OPP
posed to annexation. The Coast pa.
pers, including the Call, are unani-
nous in giving currency to the state
ment, and extracts from papers pub
lished further east tell the same tale.
Senator White, the bitterest of oppo-
nents, acknowledges that the situation
ter all his efforts against annexation
he has to make some explanation, and
says 81 am confident that two-thrds
of the Senators do not favor annexa-
ton This sounds quite strong and
the anti-anneXationist here must
have felt a momentary glow when
cold water upon them when he adds:
This does not mean that it will not
be ratified" Then the Senator goes
off the track and in an explanation
says: There ought to be no politics
involved"
Now, assuredly, the annexation of
the Hawaiian Islands is distinct par
ty measure. 1t formed plank in the
Republican platform, and it is the pet
measure of the Republican platform.
1t commends itself not only to Repub-
licans, but to large section of the
Democratic party, among whom are
to be found some of the stanchest Of
which has risen, however, above party
politics and has become national, as
Colonel Berry remarked in his first
letter on the subject. Senator Whites
effort at explanation only shows the
weakness of his own side. There have
been politics involved, but the ques-
ton has gone beyond party politics,
and has reached a stage where it has
the whole weight of party and some
thing more, and that something more
will help to carry it to its ultimate
success.
The tactics of the opposition are
clearly laid down, they will do their
utmost to prolong the inevitable day.
The rules of the Senate allow of al
most endless debate, and the oppo-
nents of annexation are going 10
avail themselves of this opportunity
But this is what is being said now.
When the hopelessness of the strug-
gle is fully realized, this form of OPP
position is liable to collapse. Of course
the immediate ratification may be de-
layed from this cause. There are many
who hope to receive annexation as the
Christmas gift of 1897, but that is very
doubtful. Gladly would The Star well
come it, but it does not look at pres
ent as if it would be realized. If Sen
ator Davis, however, can get his res
olution through, appointing certain
day for taking final vote, a vast food
of talk will be stopped and we will DC
able to calculate exactly when we
shall, become an integral portion Ct
the Great Republic, and when The
Stars and Stripes shall float over 1lt
executive building, never again II be
removed.

HAWAIrs CHRISTMAS GIFT.

4 Fort street merchant who is en-
thussiastic over annexation said this
morning that he had received private
news from the States which led him
to believe that the annexation treaty
would arrive on the Picking, as n
Christmas gift to the people of Ha-
wall. His informant writes that an
neXation will come as tidal wive and
that there will be very little delay.

There is no better oil stove
in the market than the justly
celebrated BLUE FLAME,
for which we are agents. We
have recently imported fresh
lot of these convenient stoves,
and they contain two new i'm
provements which add to their
desirability. One of these is a
regulating screw for the burn
ers, and the other is a spring by
which the burners are brought
to the top of the stove when
it is desired to light them.
These stoves are absolutely
the best coal oil stove in the
market, and they are sold at a
reasonable price.
In coal and wood stoves we
recommend the PANSY as
being the best. We have it
in all sizes at prices to suit all
purses.
STEEL Ranges for large
families and restaurant use are
a speciality with us, and we
shall be glad to quote prices at
any time.
A useful article in this warm
climate is small alcohol stove
with kettle. We keep them.

President, Rev. A. 5. Henderson;
secretary, Miss Lulu Rem; treasurer,
Chas. Hood. The presidents Of the
cooperating societies will be vice
presidents and will, with the presi-
dent, secretary and treasurer, consti-
tute the executive committee. The
object Of the union will be to further
christian work. 1t is hoped that the
Epworth League and the remaining
Endeavor Societies will join the
union. The constitution will be
printed later.
The Young Peoples Christian Un-
ion recently organized, has adopted
the missionary extension, idea. DR..
S B. Fleming of Wichita, will deliver
missionary lecture under the aus
pieces of the union on Thursday night
of next week. The place will be an
nOunced later. These lectures are
free to all, but at every one cOllec-
tiOn will be taken to pay the expenses.
Tue lecture will probably not begin
before o'clock in order to allow the
churches which desire time for short
prayer meeting. The union would
rather not have had this lecture on
Thursday night, but the date is set by
che missionary committee of the state
G. E. union.
Attorney General Boyle has render
ed an opinion on the state priLterShip
controversy, in which he holds that
Major J. X. Hudson, the present in
cumbent, has no legal title to office
and that the Office is legally vacant.
The decision was called forth by the
application OF Secretary OF State Bush.
At caucus Thursday night a COM
mittee was appointed to secure an
opinion from the attorney general on
this question, but the opinion was
handed down before the committee
acted. The vacancy will be immedi-
ately filled by a ,pOpulist. so the Pop
ulistS declare. The unexpired term
extends to July lst and includes all
the time the legislature is in session.
The legislative printing is the SNAP
of the Office. If Major Hudson is
Ousted, as is now conceded, he will
lose the principal emOluments of the
, office.
