TRUTH Is a PRICELESS PEARL

Even il we do occasionally poke
fun at our worthy brother, loan
floating, cooperative labor and
chapel building Peter Cushman
Jones, and irreverently call him
"Pop Corn" and Papa" we candid
ly admit that he has grand and
noble heart in fairly substantial
encasement OF fsshly tissue, and
that he generously uses the grist
that he has ground in his mill. We
may like his personal qualities, as
we do those of many of our political
opponents, but we don't like his
public politics.

eUasiue throughout. II does not meet
a single issue of the case fairly. Thus
be twists the language OF Minister
Willis out Of all shape and reason
in order to make it appear that
President Cleveland had constituted

with Cleveland's message before him

the only purpose that this govern
ment had in interposing in Hawai-

ity which Stevens overthrow, by a
friendly appeal to the reason and
honor of the mon who are at the
head OF the provisional government.
Dole is tricky and insincere when he
asks when the court Of arbitration
was held He disposes OF the mat
ter about the landing of the marines
to uphold the revolutionary govern
ment in the most cowardly way. He
avoids the question as to whether the
usurping government could have
maintained itself without the pre-
seDce of the men from the Boston.
He shifts the whole responsibility
for the landing Of the marines onto
the American Government, and tells
us that, il Stevens violated interna-
tional law we must deal with him, and
not with the Provisional Govern
ment or it's adherents. In other
words, he tells us that, il by Stevens
tredcheTous and anlaWfW conduct the
monarchy was overthrown, we must
settle accounts with Stevens and
make no effort to restore the de-
posed Queen. With the results Of
Stevens policy we have nothing to
do, he says. There is not hint
that the oligarchs intend to submit
their action to vote of the people.

he and his associates will wait until
the Republican party gets into
power in this country, and when
that time comes he feels certain that
his crime will be approved. Thurs.

the Lady Had Not Been Divorced
Twelve Months.

William R. Hathaway, receiver of the
Spring Valley Water Company, and Mrs.
Martha r. Talmage, who keeps a lodgin g.
house at 6 O'Farrell street, were married
at sea on the tug Vigilant last Wednesday.
On this occasion Captain John Silovich
did not perform the ceremony, but Rev.
Joseph Rowell of the Mariners Church
saw that the tug was beyond the three
league limit and that the ceremony was
performed according to the rites pre-
scribed by the Church of England.
Early in the week Hathaway went to
the marriage license office and had short
interview with Cupid Danforth. The
latter began making out the necessary
permit and when he came to the lady's
name looked up and aueried, Widow ?"
no" was the answer. She is divorced
from her husband
How long has she been a divorced
woman?"
about six months, | think"
Cant issue you any license. Under
the new law woman or man must be
divorced at least twelve months before
they can remarry.'
1t was then that Hathaway turned
mournfully away and sought consolation
on the briny deep. He was too much in
love to wait another six months, so the
tug Vigilant was pressed into service and
the ceremony took place as described.
1t was blowing pretty fresh outside, and
the entire party had great difficulty in
keeping on their feet during the ceremony.
Captain Silovich steadied the bride and
the Rev. Mr.. Rowell and the groom de-
pended upon each other for a mutual
support. 1t was very subdued party
that dlsem barked from the Vigilant W hen
she returned to her moorings.
Hathaway is a well-known man-about-
town and m e. Der of several clubs. His
intimate friends knew that he had love
affair on his hands, but the name OF the
lady of bis choice never leaked out until
yesterday. Some of Mrs. Talmage's
friends knew that she was about to be
married, but whom the prospective groom
was to be was close secret. However,
the news is now out, and congratulations
are in order.

End
Deceased Was Prominent in Business

Estate.

James Paterson, a man of the early days
of this City, died yesterday morning at
his residence, 500 Powell street. Old age
and general complications caused his
death.
Paterson was memb Der of the San Fran

RaIston when the Bank of California was
in the public eye. Paterson was at the
Stock Exchange yesterday a few hours
before his death.
Mr.. Paterson was q native of Ayrshire,
Scotland, and about 70 years old. He
came to this City in the early fifties and
entered the employment of Daniel Glib.
a pioneer merchant, as bookkeeper. He
was afterward one of the executors of the
will of Daniel Glib, which trust gave him
much trouble before a final settlement was
made with the heirs. Paterson left the
EN- ployment of Glib to become the private
secretary of W. G. Ralston when the Bank OF
California was at Washington and Bat
terry streets. When the bank removed to
its present premises he still kept Mr..
Ralston's books. and also acted as assist
ant receiving teller for the bank.

Exchange Board and bought the seat pre-
viously owned by E. G. de Crano. AS a
broker in mining stocks Mr.. Paterson had
the usual vicissi;udes, and in late years
was very unsuccessful.
The San francisco Stock and Exchange
Board will take charge of the funeral.
On the day of the funeral com nittee

Paterson leaves but small estate. He
was unmarried.
