In ono Of his rare lucid moments
the editor of the Advertiser wrote
an intelligent and valuable article
against the stock gambling which
now is in vogue in Honolulu. The
Star had the audaoity to call him to
task for the stand taken by him
and defended the gambling which
should meet the condemnation of
all citizens. 1t must be remembered
however, that the men now engaged
in stock gambling to the detriment
of legitimate business, and repre-
sented by the Star, are the same
who signed the lottery petition in
1892 and desired the establishment
Of the great Louisiana lottery 10
Honolulu. The men who overturn.
cd the monarchy under the pretense
that the passage Of the lottery bill
meant the ruin of the country must
feel cheap if there is any shame left
ia them, when they notice the gam
bling fever which has taken posses
siou Of the community under our
best government and which is en-
Outraged by tho official organ Of the
Annexation Club and Jose oh b.
Anterior. The booming oi stock
gambling by the Star may possibly
be explained by desire on the part
OF the holders Of Star stock to I'M
load. We notice that a dividend
(bona 6de of course) of l0% has been
declared on Star stock. A dividend
Of 15% was once declared ON Thurs
tons Cyclorama stock and shares
jumped from one hundred to two
hundred. 1T was the first and last
dividend. Now no one seems to
know where he cyclorama is, and
the "stocks" are not quoted at all.

One never knows what. gifts the
fates may bestow on Christmas Day,
but it is fairly certain that annex
alton will not be one Of them, A
gentleman of authority and infu-
enee and one intimately acquainted
with life in Washington said this
morning that it was foolish to anti
oipate any definite news on Satur-
day, for the reason that Congress
seldom did any important work
until after the holidays. The pre-.
liminary period was devoted to
organization, making friends and
becoming better acquainted with
their legislative colleagues and the
correspondents; paving the way in
fact for victories to be won and de-
feats to be sustained.
