Russia, Germany and France against
America annexing the islands, with
England quietly watching and en-
ioying the game, as she we'll knows,
that the moment America reaches
out in mid-ocean land grabbing,
that moment dies the Monroe doc
trne, which America now foresees.
Tempest in teapot, this little
fuss and feathers oligarchie trundle
bed minority, will end thus: Before
next January there will be an under
standing between America, England
France aud perhaps Germany, for a
joint protection of this nation
against all other powers. Those ma
tions will then say to Uncle Sam,
that we cannot protect small band
OF armed traitors against people
who have for the last FIVE years been
crying to the world for justicel
Therefore, order at once the abroga-
tion of the treaty between Japan
and Hawaii, that Hawaii may regu-
tate her plantation labor as the
necessity for labor is required, and
then in no uncertain tone demand a
pleblscite to be taken and see that
it is done fairly, which is but simple
justice to that doubly wronged ma
ton. That is the play now being
prepared to be placed upon the
stage of Hawaii, and performed to
the admiration and joy OF her people.

that no negro can ride in the white

in the car reserved for the colored

applies to the hotels, restaurants

The Advertiser publishes another
fake story about a general emigra-
tion OF Portuguese from Hawaii to
the small island of Taimoa near
Java. As reason for the proposed
annexation it is stated that the
Portuguese fear that if Hawaii is an
neIsd they will not receive the
rights OF American citizens, and
that they prefer to emigrate. The
Portuguese who are supposed to be
tho promoters of the scheme, have
written to the Portuguese Govern
ment and suggested that facilities
Of transportation and of obtaining
homes be granted to them. The
Portuguese Government naturally
referred the request to its represent
alive here for further information,
and Mr. Canvarro has invited the
subscribers to the letter to meet
him tomorrow and furnish him
with necessary information in regard
to what they desire. 1t doen't seem
probable that the Portuguese Gov
srnment should be- anxious to assist
subjects who are dissatisfied with
their present homes because there
are prospects OF their not being adj
mitted as citizens of the United
States. The Government OF Portu-
gal can certainly not feel hattered
over such a proposition. 1t is char
acteristic that none Of the three
men who signed the resolutions
which were presented to Senator
Morgan before he left are Portu-
guese citizens or in danger OF not
becoming American citizens in case
OF annexation One of them is an
American and the other two are
Hawaiian citizens, and will un-
doubtedly be allowed to enjoy all

"The little knot OF noisy royal

called upon to decide by plebiscite
as to the form of government they
wish to live under is now by the
natural whirl OF events fast ap-
proaching their object. When the
far astray Alabama Senator arose
and advocated the passing OF the

last session of Congress, no notice
was taken of him, but the bill was
laid over until the December term,

1t is to be hoped that thorough
investigation will be held into the
shooting, by Chinese detective, of
Jack Gavin, as soon as he is suffi-
ciently we'll to make statement. 1t
appears that the unfortunate man
besides being shot through the wrist
and the leg by the police crackshot,
was clubbed by the butt OF the

rendered hors-de-combat by the

officers armed with revolvers. The
policeman who was shot by John

truncheon and it was only after that
occurrence, that the marshal handed
out arms to some of the special

of reason for having the myrmidons

prove a formid able menace to our

which this item was taken stated that
the reports were based on statements
made by three or four prominent
farmers in each county of the State
that had so far reported.
The article, SO far as it pertains to
Redwood county, is as false as falsifi-
ers could have made it, as venomous
as hungry Office seeker could have
penned with the hopes that it would
result in getting him an office. There
have not been losses in Redwood
county, by reason of hog cholera, dur
ing the year closed, that would in to-
tai amount to over $500. The Ga
zETTn has made diligent and careful
inquiry among hog buyers and stock
raisers and they place the maximum
loss at that amount, with the proba-
bility that it was less. Real cases of
hog cholera appeared on the Gilfillan
farm alone, DR.. Golden attributing
the death of the Ilett hogs to some
other cause. These are the only two
cases wherein hogs have died in any
great numbers, and attributing both
to hog cholera the total would not
reach over $500.
The undoubted object Of this dis
torted report by the Professor is to
create another Office or more Offices for
the benefit of the hungry horde Of
Office seekers more anxious to draw
their pay than to work. The fact that
they resort to these extravagant figures,
that they attempt to injure stock inter
ests of the different counties by these
lying reports, should be sufficient to
convince every sane member of the
Legislature that the people want them
to cast vote against the bill and COM
pei the Office seeker to seek other fields
for soft berths.
