rade's words were for the largest
charity in reaching for motives, and
recalling the admiration of the
world for those who die for their
convictions. Ex-Consl General
of Japan, N. w. McIvor, of Iowa,
born in South Carolina, fol-
lowed closely in comrade Hart
wells footsteps, but both stood
firmly on the massive bedrock of
indissolubles union"
So the comrades reasoned togeth-
er around this Federal campfire,
under the Southern Cross. The
bugle sounded good night" hv-
ing comrades departed, and when
they fell into sleep, the spectral
out of "the shadowy phal-
anx," whose bodies lie in the Nuu-
anu valley, gathered about the
dying embers, until the fainest
sign of dawn, when they vanished
back into the ''tield of the upper
,ky."

THE DEPARTING GUESTS.

We hope that the American
statesmen who leave today, will
mark Us up fairly and little gen
erOusly IN their note books. They
have quietly stood us up in line,
because We offer ourselves as new
recruits IN the great Amican army.
And ike strict inspection officers,

they have looked at our teeth, the
lcolor of our hair, the way we turn
our toes, our general gait, ou
character and our knowledge u
elementary principles.
They see clearly that there ha:
been erected here a scaffolding OF
the same kind of civilization that
exists in their own country, and
that we have added to it all of the
modern improvements, so far as
they are at ready command. But we
confess that we are not able to hold
up it up, for any great length of
time, unless stronger hands will aid
us. We can, without doubt, hold
it up as we now hold it, for even
an indefinite period, if we should
adopt stronger methods. But the
the dominant power
desires to fulfill the mission it
openly adopted, at the overthrow
of the monarchy. 1t is Anglo
Saxon in sentiment, and desires to
be relieved of the burden of gov
erning in any other way than that
which is approved by the best men
Of their own race.
We understand perfectly well
that we are sharply criticised in
America for acts of omission in the
up of a little State. We
are not perfect creatures, nor are
he American people, our blood re-
atoms perfect creatures either.
Therefore, we ask these chosen rep
esentatives of the Great Republic
o bring us within the range of the
.olden rule. If it is a good rule
Or imperfect man, it is a good rule
Or imperfect communities.
We are perfectly well aware that
lie Government of the United
tates will not be governed, to any l
rye extent, by sentimental feel
g towards us. Political and com
ercial affairs rarely contain warm
God. The Cubans have found 4
at out. At the same time, these L
representatives. are human, and our /
.nial climate may warm up their L
yn blood, so that they can take "
e chill off the naturally cold d
God of the national body polite. Il
So as their ship swings out from :

DANIEL WEBSTER AGAIN.

We quoted on Tuesday, the
views of the great New England
statesman, Daniel Webster, which
placed a small value upon the Pa
cific coast, and high value upon
these Islands, in their relations to
the United States.
If we had really no serious pro-
blems here, we should simply re-
gard his views as those of a great
man, whose vision had failed, and
we would take no lesson from it.
If, on the other hand, we are very
seriously trying to get our reckon
ing, every day, his views are guide
posts, which indicate what the
drift of American sentiment has
been, on this question for many
years.
All things, our own thoughts
wen, are governed by law, and we
ought to understand and explain
he swinging movements of the
political pendulum, in these inter
national matters. Why did Mr..
Webster ignore the value of
magnificent empire, and highly es-
innate the value of few noun
ain tops rising out of the Paci-
c?

We do not believe that the mem
bers of the party will endorse this
article. 1t backs up, in principle,
the sugar beet men, and, on its
face, cuts out the American mer-
chants here.

The statement made in the Star.
yesterday, that Senator Bacon of
Georgia, ''has received a letter
from Minister Thurston asking
him to visit Hawaii and see for
HIMSELF" also that ''Mr. Thurston
adds that if agreeable to Mr..
Bacon, the entire expenses of his
journey to the Islands and back
will be borne by the Government
is not correct, so far as the Govern
ment is concerned. 1t has authoriz-
ed no such offer, and it is not be-
heved that Mr.. Thurston has made
it. MIR. Thurston is not the person
who would compromise the Gov
eminent by making such an offer,
and the Government would not
confirm it, if made.

Now the pendulum is swinging
back, towards foreign trade. San
Francisco is pushing it, as the ship
owners pushed Mr.. Webster in the
forties. A new class of men, are
in the national councils. The ma
nufacturers are beginning, for the
first time in American history, to
push their goods into the distant
markets. To them and the states
men, who represent them, the real
value of outposts is sudden and
startling. The era of commercial
expansion is at its dawn. With
this new commercial insight, comes
the clearer view of the importance
of these Islands as the strategic
point of the Pacific, as the
tower from which the moving
forces of the Orient shall be watch
ed. President Mckinley and his
friends see this more clearly than
the traders, because it is not the
business of traders to study strate-
ric nointc

We have some delicate relations
with the United States, under the
Reciprocity Treaty, and our ways
of doing things are under a fierce
light.
The article in the platform is
precisely the same in principle, as
that vigorously urged by the sugar
beet men in California, and other
States, against reciprocity and an
nexation. They say to Congress:
"Take care of our own Horny
handed sons of toll and don't let
the Hawaiians take the bread out
of our mouths with the products of
Asiatic labor" They are using be-
fore Congress, the precise Ian
guage of our contemporary, the
Star: lhe Government is not a
different body from the people,
md its duty is to foster the indus
ries and trade of the country" If
hey succeeded in establishing this
of home protection, for
he benefit of the sugar beet men,
We will soon be on the ebbing tide

Therefore, we call this article
dangerous one, and hope that the
sugar beet men will not succeed
n establishing the same principle
1 the States.

American soldiers, thinking
bayonets," always discussed the
why and the wherefore. For they
fought for no sovereign, but for
themselves, and so they reasoned
with themselves. The men of this
tropical Post, followed the tradi-
lions ON Wednesday evening.
They naturally called on the Am
erican Minister to respond for him,
who now covers the summit of poll
tical ambition, in America, and
the response was made with dig
nifty, grace, and effect as it should
be. To the toast of the 'FBlue and
Grey" comrade Hartwell respond
ed, and on behalf of the Grey"
with that unreserved zeal, which
we all know, is the pleasure and
good fortune of his clients. In
''justifying' the motives of his
temporary clients, his clothing
seemed to take greyish hue, and
he travelled near the border line of
Estate rights" There was, for a
moment, the sighted suggestion of
a groan from the tomb of Daniel
Webster, in comrade HartwelPs
native State, but it ended quickly,
when it appeared that the com

The American merchants would
be cut out from any bidding, under

Did the makers of enis platform
see that the kind of legislation
they ask for would compel the
Government to buy all of its pos
tage stamps and revenue stamps in
that it could import
none of them, or make any con-
tract for any of them in America,
but would be forced to pay some
house here a commission for sell
ing them! that if the Government
required a steam vessel, it could
not buy it in San Francisco, but
would be forced to get it through

political pendulum, in these inter
national matters. Why did Mr.
Webster ignore the value of a
magnificent empire, and highly es-
innate the value of a few noun
tain tops rising out of the Paci-
lfc?
The Americans, like the British,
were a commercial nation in 1914.
They are so now. The Pacific
coast was a barren market for
merchants, and its exports We're
only hides and tallow from the
Spanish ranches. As there was
mo money in it," the merchant
looked elsewhere, and the mer-
chant dictates to the statesmen.
In Hawaii, the rich ship owners
of New Bedford, New London,
Nantucket and Sag Harbor, had
their treasures in the Pacific, in
the ''forties." Their ships were
running down the whales from
Hawaii to the Arctic Sea. These
rich ship owners made themselves
felt in Massachusetts, and in Con
gress. Men whose investments in
the fisheries, paid from 20 to 100
per cent. annually, could take the
time to make themselves heard.
Hawaii was the admirable rendez-
vous of these ships, for recruiting,
and for reshipment of oil and bone.
The rich ship owners created SEN
timent in all powerful New Eng
land, in favor of holding these
Islands for the use of the Ameri-
can trader. Not the trader of the
future, but the trader of the pres
ent. Trade created public senti-
ment. The roots of all annexation,
or protectorate ideas ran down into
and were fed by the New England
trading interest. There is no rec
ord in America, of any interest
taken in Hawaii, beyond the boun-
DIARIES of New England, excepting
in Washington, where New Eng
land men had mighty influence.
Mr.. Webster saw Hawaii
through the eyes of the rich whale
men. 1t became his concern, be
cause it was their concern. Trade,
like the birds of prey, had a far
sighted eye, and guided the near
sighted eye of the statesman.
When the whaling trade de-
clined, and the rich ship owners
went into dry rot, or sent their
ships to the Golden Gate, the in
terest of New England in Hawaii
declined. How many of the New
England Chambers of Commerce,
or Legislatures have asked for an

DE LONG POST, G. A. R.
I'm the dream of the Northern poets,
The brave who in battle die
Eipht IN in shadowy DhalanX
gic points.

I'm the dream of the Northern poets,
The brave who in battle die
Fight on in shadowy phalanx
In the field of the upper sky;
And as we read the sounding rhyme
The reverent fancy hears
| The ghostly ring of the viewless
swords
And the clash of the spectral spears.
I'VE think with imperious question
ings
OF the brothers that we have lost,
And we strive to track in DEATH
mystery
The flight of each valiant ghost,
The Northern myth comes back to
And we feel through our sorrows
night
That those young souls are striving
Somewhere for the truth and light"
The great campfire on the
grounds of Mr.. Wright's Little
on Wednesday night,
threw its tongues of fame up
wards to the leaves of the cocoa
palms. Behind it, the solemn out
lines of Diamond Head, the white
line of the sea. Not a trace of the
cold December sky of Virginia, or
the malaria of the Mississippi
swamps, where the camp-fires were
lighted thirty-fve years ago, and
when these survivors were in their
early manhood. This tropical
was the visible token and
of the terrible days,
when Lincoln 'kept his finger on
the pulse of the people," and
Grant lined the pathway of Fede-
raj union from Washington to
Richmond, with the bones of the
patriotic comrades of these men.

A Quiet Thanksgiving.

Morgantown people as a rule spent
Thanksgiving in quiet and thankful
way. Sunrise prayer meetings were
held 10 the M. e. and M. P. churches,
and the union service was held in the
Presbyterian church as announced.
After services many of the people
gathered at the homes of friends and
delightful little family reunions were
held, during which sumptuous din
ners were discussed. A few of the
male population who are fond of
sport went hunting, and some fine
strings of game were brought in.
There were no public exercises to conf
memorate the day, except those at
the churches. Everyone seemed to be
thankful and satisfied with his lot.

By the will of the late Henry H. Van
alta, his estate of $4,000 will be DIVIDED
between his widow and six children
The will of the late George W. Thomas,
of Boroentown, has been admitted to pro-
bate. The estate is valued at $50, 900 and
the widow will receive the income from
it during her life. At her death the prop
erty will be divided among her four chill
dren.
The young man giving the name of W.
G. Hornberger, who was arrested while
at work on the farm of E. B. Obert a few
miles from here, was taken to Philadel-
phIs, in charge of an officer on Tuesday
afternoon. He was wanted for stealing a
horse from Daniel Moore, near Hanover,
Pa.
The outbuildings on farm owned by
Mrs. Thomas Crawford, of Trenton, situa-
ted near White Hill, were destroyed by
an incendiary fire at late hour Tuesday
night. Parties from Pennsylvania were
about to move in the house. The out
buildings had nothing in them but little
straw. Loss about $500.
During Tuesday night burglars entered
the house of George QuicksaIl and Caleb
Southland, living on farms at Rising Sun
Square, near Bordentown. The thieves
ransacked both houses but secured moth
ing of value. At the home of Quicksall,
gold piece belonging to his daughter,
with her initials engraved thereon, was
taken. The thieves entered sleeping
apartments at the home of Mr.. Quicksall
and burnt matches were found IN both
houses. There were two persons, who
we're in their bare feet 1t is thought
they are the same men who entered
the farm house of Hyman Goodenough,
near Crosswicks, about week ago
