Scotch whisky has become one of
the favorite beverages in Honolulu

a whisky which cannot be excelled.

stand for "The Very Finest" This
whisky will be served exclusively at

NEW REVELATIONS.

The tenor OF the intercepted tel
egrams we recently published excit-
ed our curiosity and led us to dis
cipline our dickey bird for inatten-
ton to the affairs OF this "funny
little republic" The correction bore
fruit in the following remarkable
revelations. The result OF recent
Executive Councils led to tho writ
ing by President Dole Of dispatches
to Minister Hatch, in essence as
follows: The jig is up unless we
can get Smith away. Our scheme
to smuggle in new recruits to the
regular forces has leaked out. Our
old gun carriers are ou to the whole
racket. Fear they will leave us in
the lurch before the new men arrive.
Damon is still kicking about ex-
pense; says he wont stand it any
longer. He reluctantly provided for
Smith, but declares he will not put
up for Cooper again, Our fire hall

better not tell Wilder to stop send
ing more recruits9 Damon may re-
sign at any moment, then, great
heaven! what shall we do for money.

That such threat will bring our
great men to terms, is the full be-
lief Of the demagogues. Have they
ever dreamed of the possibility that
the Cabinet of Mr.. Dole does not
care fig for the gun carriers who
at one time we're their main stay.
Have the blstherskites ever realized
that nothing would suit the directors
Of the Hawaiian oligarchy better
than the surrendering OF arms by
the members of the Annexation

But isit not fact that the said
Annexation Club contemplates a

that it has already told our rulers
