The Glorious Fourth.

The Hawaiian Republic" section
of the Fourth of July celebration
lists met again on Saturday evening
and selected Councillor of State
George w. Smith as chairman Of
the 1897 committee to succeed
Major j. w. Jones with Lieut.. Ed.
Towse as Secretary.
1t was decided that the celebra-
ton should be on the same lines as
last year, unless an amalgamation
with tho American" celebration was
arranged; that as the Fourth fell on
a Sunday, the day of celebration
should be on the date fixed by the
government as the National Holiday
aud that the general committee
should appoint sub committees, with
power to add to their numbers. An
energetic effort will be made to have
a joint celebration, but the indica-
tious are that an alliance is not
practicable. 1t has been intimated
that the Hawaiians will favor the
american" Fourth, but will give
the marble heart aud empty purse
to the Republican mill
tary and Office holders, affair

CALLS 1T A PLOT
These martial missionary mer-
chants succeeded in overthrowing
the government to which they owed
their allegiance, and of which many
OF them had been members. If it
was not plot these intriguers had
for a long time been carefully ma,
turing how did it happen that the
only ship available, (the one means
OF communication) was previously
chartered by them2 my opponents
have taken the ouly vessel which
could be obtained for the purpose,
and hearing OF their intention to
send delegation Of their number
to present their side Of this conflict
before you l requested the favor OF
sending by the same vessel an envoy
to you to lay before you my state
ment as the facts appear to myself
anu my loyal subjects. This request
has been refused and / now ask you
that in justice to myself and my
people no steps be taken by the
Government of the United States

How needed the man who was
president OF the United States this
appeal for justice from woman and

ted commissioners want both sides
heard Did they want justice done'
No, they sail away with one side OF
the question, leaving justice aud the
other side with the savages, to San
Francisco there to unload cargo Of
treason and falsehood, dishonesty
and misrepresentation. San Fran
cisco had all along been making
itself unpleasantly conspicuous in
Hawaiian affairs, and it was congo
NAL atmosphere that these annexa-
tion agents and agitators breathed
upon landing there. They at once
adopted and aiterward pursued and
still maintain systematic course of
inuendo and equivocatiou, exagge-
ration aud pretension. 1t was from
this vantage ground that most da-
ring lie was perpetrated by one Of
them, Castle by name, as appears
and is proved by the following two
