From the citations made by "a
Loval American" one might be
lieve the United States is on the
road to destruction and pretty near
the jumping off place. There are
no doubt radical Catholic societies
as well as radical Protestant socie-
ties. Catholic clergy make rash
statements, as do the Protestants.
As rule, however, in the rank and
file the liberal opinions of the age
are constantly cropping out and the
influence is increasing among fol
lowers of all creeds. Priest and
preacher demand the close atten-
ton to church rules and regula-
tons, but the average citizen, Cath
ollie or Protestant, holds more close
" to the conviction that the office
of the church is to assist men in
their every day life, in their deal
ings among men, and not to die
tate the strict detail of his action
as a follower of any particular
creed.

little labor as Hawaii. The poorer
Americans, led by a few prominent
men, have organized an 'Annexa-
ton Club the avowsd object be
ing to prevent the japanese from
obtaining equal rights with the
Americans"
There Is hardly an item Of the
foregoing that Is not news to the
people here, except perhaps the
statement that the rank and file of
the Americans wish unreserved an
nexation TO the United States. The
avowed object of the Annexation
Club, as stated by the Literary Di-
gest, Is indeed amusing, and look
ing over the list of those present
at the meeting referred to we find
very few outside the newspaper
men, who are proverbially poor,
who would be classed among the
poorer Americans. 1t has also yet
TO be demonstrated that a living in
Hawaii is purchased with less labor
than in any country outside of the
West Indies.
Here again is given a very good
argument for greater activity IN
the literary bureau of the Annex
alton Club. The Club, besides
sending out literature from this
country, ought, in order to carry
on the work properly, to employ
writers in the large newspaper cen
tiers who would correct misstate
ments like the above and be ready
to furnish facts and figures in case
arguments against annexation are
put before the public to any extent
The Club should be prepared to
present its side of the question
promptly in order to guard against
hasty judgments formed by read
ing misstatements due to ignorance
or malice aforethought. Situated
as we are, it is impossible for the
literary committee to handle the
matter promptly. 1t requires a
week or ten days for the papers to
reach Honolulu, and a full month
would pass before a correction
could be made The Annexation
Club should have a capable repre-
sentative in San Francisco, Chi
cago or some other city of the
Middle West, in New York and
Washington. These men would
cost money, but in the present cam
paign the expenditure would be 4
mere bagatelle when we consider
what may be lost to Hawaii by Il
failure to put out money where 1t |
Is needed.

NEED FOR EDUCATORS.

The ignorance of the average
American concerning the affairs of
Hawaii, particularly the average
American east of the Rockies, has
often been commented ON, and a
recent evidence of it comes from a
no less carefully edited journal
than the Literary Digest, publish
ed in New York City The Digest,
in a preliminary explanation made
TO selections taken from the re-
marks of Judge Hartwell and j.
III. Fisher at the first meeting of
Annexation Club officers, says:
According to all accounts there
are two rival factions among those
In control of Hawaii. The wealthy
element, assured by the experience
of the last few years, wish TO pre-
serve the independence of Hawaii.
The natives are too docile to rise
against their American masters,
and the japanese, it is thought, can
be prevented from obtaining the
suffrage by the threat of American
interference. But the rank and
file of the Americans wish unre-
served annexation to the United
States. The wealthy sugar planters
fear that annexation would result
in the influx of undesirable ele-
ments from the United States, for,
with the exception of the West In
dian Islands, there is no place on
earth where men can live with so

THE THIRD ANNIVERSARY

When the record Of the years
preceding the 18th Of January,
1898. l. compared with the four
wears OF moral, political and com
mercial progress that have follow
ed, the holiday celebrated today
might well be put down as the
brightest anniversary OH the Ha-
waiian calendar. In the year i'm
mediateIy following the overthrow
Of the monarchy Hawaii had many
harsh and disagrecable experiences,
hut a. we now look back upon
those trying events we can see that
the test of the determination to
maintain republican institutions at
all hazards has stamped failure
forevermore" upon any attempt to
secure a reinstatement of monarch
ial rule. 1t was shortly after the
overthrow that our great and good
friend told the United States Con
gress that but for the assistance OF
the American Minister the Com
mittee of Safety would never have
existed. and but for the ''lawless
occupation Of Honolulu" by Unit
ed States forces the Provisional
Government would never have ex-
isted. But this same friend after
wards discovered that not only
could the Provisional Government
maintain itself without the United
States forces, but also remained in
power Notwithstanding ominous
threats from United States forces.
But the victory of the Provis-
ional Government has been swal-
lowed up in the successful admins
tration of the Republic, and OH
this the eve of the third anniver-
sary of the revolution we find po-
litical barriers broken down and
peaceful and united people, willing
to give the most kindly interpreta
ton to the action of men who
sought to carry out a policy entire
" contrary To modern ideas of lib
eFtv and ruinous to the country.
The administration of our ma
tional affairs Is in the hands OF
men who have IN late years shown
themselves to be as honest, pro
gressive and capable as they were
courageous and determined four
wears ago. Our national leaders
have been true to their trust, the
Republic has prospered, and under
its strong but kindly guidance gen
eral prosperity has been the share
of the nation. Best of all, the time
seems close at hand when Hawaii
will forget the day of revolution
and celebrate a greater event by
placing OH Its calendar of anniver
saries Admission Day.

President-elect McKinley's Sc
lection of Senator WOlcott of Colo
RADIO to 90 to Europe as a sort of
advance agent to investigate the
prospects for international agree
ment on bimetallism indicates that
the next administration will leave
few stones unturned to accomplish
the promises of the Republican
party. Major Mckinley has often
been accused of being a silverite
at heart, and whether he accom-
plishes anything or not, he seems
to have set out to do his best to
take silver out of national politics
before the next Presidential cam
paion.

AS between a Queen and Republic,
the United States will stand by the Re
