In long, able and interesting de.
cision delivered this morning Judge
Antoine Perry, End Judge Of the
First Circuit Court, holds that
Hawaiian register must be granted
to the s. S. China. To quote his
own language the petitioner (Mac-
farlane) having in all respects oom-
piled with the law, is entitled to the
certificate OF registry applied for.
The decision may be claimed by the
Opposition as n manly protest on
the part OF the Judiciary against
the dictatorial and illegal acts Of the
oligarchcal Executive; for it, to all
intents and purposes, holds that the
Executive cannot alter the laws Of
the country to oblige an American
Minister. Emanating from the
source IL does the decision may
probably be upheld by the Supreme
Court, If carried there, and the
Executive may reluctantly learn
that even the Annexation Club and
the military element cannot author
ize them to act in contravention OF
the letter and spirit of the Constitu-
ton which they themselves framed.
This decision in principle affects
other matters beyond the mere
registration OF a steamer.

An item appeared last night in an
evening paper, in which it was stated
that the veterans" Of Co. d had
been ordered to deliver up their
guns The tone OF the article caused
the impression that the members OF
the company we're indignant over
the demand for their arms, and the
paper suggested that the men
would have to join the citizens
guard to be able, in the future, to
furnish an armed support to the
Government. There ia no ground
for kick this time. There are vol
unteers, who do not take care of the
guns furnished to them by the Gov
eminent and an order has been is-
sued that the guns in the hands Of
the volunteers shall be delivered to
the armorer for cleaning and repair
ing AS soon as the guns have been
put 10 proper shape, they are re-
turned to the men, who ought to be
glad to have the work, they ought
to do themselves, shifted on to the
shoulders of another person. Two
volunteer companies have already
had their guns inspected and clean
ed, and the arms have been returned.
The turn of Co. D arrived, and their
guns are now in the hands Of the
armorer. The boys should not cry
before they are hurt.

In our last issue we called atten-
to the new uniforms OF English pat
tern, which Mr.. Dole's staff officers
propose to wear when they attend
receptions or make official calls to
the wardrooms OF the U. S. men Of
war. We understood at the time
that the staff officers bought their
own uniforms, and we thought it
really immaterial whether they
wore red, green or yellow trousers,
as long as they paid for them them
selves. We now learn that an APP
preparation has been passed out of
the military funds, allowing each
staff officer an amount Of 500 to
have the gold braided uniform built
Five hundred dollars may not be
very big amount to Millionaire
Cooper or to Minister Damon, but
to the taxpayers it appears sufi-
GENTLY large sum not to be squan-
dered recklessly on fuss and feath-
ers. A captain OF a volunteer COM
pany states that he has been unable
to procure money for white trousers
for his men, being always answered
with a "no funds" He feels very
sore that $500 should be spent on
gold braid for five unnecessary staff
officers, while his gallant, ever bleed
ing warriors resemble the army Of
Nicaragua, and shortly will have to
remain at home for the sake OF de-
cency and public morals.
The very reverend and most
Christian editor of the Friend claims
that the Royalst party in Hawaii is
de tacto the heather party. AS the
Royalist party, as Mr.. Serene Bishop
calls the opposition to Dole's oil
garchy, comprises the majority OF
the people, the old hypocrite, now
in his dotage, has furnished the OPP
position to annexation in the United
States, with another good argument
The Americans have been made to
believe that the New England mis-
sionaries had done something in
Hawaii short of miracle, and that
all Hawaiians we're civilized Chris.
tians. To annex Hawaii would sim
ply mean the admission into the
Union OF truly Christian, educated
people. And after that impression
has been thrown broadcast over the
land, the reverend Serene Bishop

LAMBERT,

Bob Long Lays HIN Low at Ma.
The Davenport papers are just be-
ginning to chronicle the fact that
their pet pugilist, Billy Lambert,
had a 60 at Maquoketa, Iowa, last
Monday night with Bob Long.
And Lambert was licked, too. A
few taps over the heart did the bust
ness. The mill only lasted seven
rounds. Lambert held his own well
in the first three. according to re
ports, but after that he seemed to be
on. queer street, for his antagonis:
landed at will. The Englishman
would throw handful at Long &C.
casionaliv, but with no effect. Long
would have Lambert going. Then he
would ease up on him for a while.
But in the seventh Long handed one
to the Englishman which sent him
spinning to the floor. Then it was
all over.
Lamb. r. has been making his head
quarters at Davenport for the past
couple {: years. He was admired as
a pugilist by tri-city sports. He was
the victor IN several mills, made a
few dollars and went into the saloon
business across the river. He re-
Gently gave that up. Last summer
he had battle with Eddie Santry
on an island below the city, and
barely held out to The end Of the Goth
round. Snntry is lighter man than
he, and Lamoert's admirers were
confident he would cook the little
Chicagoau's goose in about rounds.
So Lam bert was not such big fel-
low in the eyes OF the tri-city sport
ing fraternity after that. Here q
week or so ago another fight was
booked between Lam bert and Santry
in Davenport. A large crowd was
present, all those who were ad-
missed parting company with
$3.50. 1t turned out that San
try had an injured arm and
could not fight. He had friend,
though, Jimmie Murphy by name,
who would take his place. Lambert
objected. He said he did not know
Jimmie. He might be top-notcher.
But he would fight him, anyway. Oh
course the sports expected good
fight. They thought Jimmie was a
jewel. But he wasn't-at least he
did not show himself to be. Lam
bert fixed him in one round. Now
the sports declare it was a put up
job all around. They're sore at
every body connected with it. Ard
the fact OF Lam bert meeting defeat
at Maquoketa has further lowered his
stock hereabouts. Aud he will no
doubt get the chilly, instead of the
glad hand, hereafter.
