A Wrong Impression.

An item appears in this mornings
papear. which places Mr. j X. Kau
namano in very unpleasant posi-
ton. 1t states that Kaunamano
failed to turn up in time TO leave for
Hawaii by the Noeau together with
attorney Kaulukou, and that the
steamer was kept waiting for him.
The paragraph finishes by stating
that "quite sum Of money was ia
his pockets" ,e
1.-The facts are that Kaunamano
had gone to Eva to find a witness
necessary in the land case, in which
he and Mr.. Kaulukou are interested,
and that on his way back his horse
got played out, and he arrived too
late to catch the steamer As the
case will not be heard until the end
OF next week, Ksunsmano knew that
he would be in ample time to tran
sact the business by leaving for Ha-
waii by the Kinau. He says that
the money for costs, etc, in the case
were ia Kaulukou's pockets, not in
his.

A cable from Madrid, under date
of September II, says, that General

instructions from President McKin.
ley, has asked the Spanish Govern
ment to grant justice to the Cubans.
Will not someone ask President Nc
Kinley to grant justice to the Ha.
waiians, while he is in the humor Of
asking it for the Cubans. The old
parable OF the mote and the beam
might be quoted by Spain to the
United States.

We are told by the organ that the
"royalists," whoever they may be,
shave wilfully aroused race preju-
dice bv telling the Bawaiians that
they would be despised socially and
down-trodden politically. The men
who have told the Hawaiians that,
stated what is the truth, and Sena-
tor Morgan far from exploding the
bubble" has confirmed the Hawai-
ians in their suspicious in regard to
their standing in case of annexation.
The Independent. [volume] (Honolulu, H.I.) 1895-1905, 1897-10-06

The Hawaians, however, see in
MIR. Morgan only private citizen
of the United States expressing his
individual opinion, and being feted
and "nursed' by the Dole oligarchy,
because his opinion happens to con-
cur with what they pretend to be
the policy Of the Hawaiian Repub-
lie. Mr.. Morgan told the Hawaiians
that after annexation they will be
treated as we'll as are his dearly be-
loved friends Of the "colored" race
in the United States, Exactly SO.
The Hawaiians will be treated as
the negroes in the United States,
that is, they will be declassed and
regarded as social outcasts.

You have tried and tested

gear and pumping mills.
Our geared Aermotors af-

merry, saw wood, chop feed,
grind grain and shell corn
and do anything is the line
besides pumping water.
Having the water you neces-
sarilly require the
AERMOTOR STOCK TANKS.
This desiderata are some
thing novel and just imported
by us, and we have already
sent a dozen of them to
Honolulu and Kahuku
Ranches. These tanks never
leak, and there are no mud
holes around them. They
ship nested, and are just as
sure to drive the wooden tank
out of existence as the Aer-
motor drove out the wooden
windmill. There are many rea-
son why this galvanized Tank
is superior. 1t is light, ships
nested, is easy to handle, re-
quires no setting up, never
leaks and does not dry and
fall down if all the water gets
out Of it; but, of course,
where the Aermotor is used,
this need never happen, as it
runs with so little wind that
a dry tank is scarcely known.

The Star states what is false, and
what it, as we'll as the Hawaiians
know to be false. 1t is because the
Hawaiians read newspapers and
books that they are aware Of the
courtesy" with which "colored"
people are treated in the United
States. What does the Star man
know about the humiliations and
snubs offered to Hawaiians, travel
ling in the United States even to
those OF as high a social standing
as he has ever enjoyed anywhere.

The Hawaiians have now sudden
ly, in the eyes of the Star writer, be-
come very fine "critters." They are
now "no more superstitious than
many Europeans" The Hawaiian
has always stood on an even footing
with the Anglo Saxon, prates the
Star now, and the Hawaiians, who
have travelled over the United
States far and wide have always
met the courtesies due to their posi-
tion in society

Indeed, Mr.. Thurston has insisted
that as President Dole and his sub
ordinate officers of the Republic Of
Hawaii set up and held the republic
in line they must be considered and
maintained in Office after annexa-
tion, and they will be under the
present treaty. The only remedy
left for the Portuguese is to join
other foreigners and Hawaiians, who
do not favor the annexation of Ha-
waii by the United States, in a
demonstration that will make clear
their objection to the treaty of an
nexation. A mass meeting and
memorial would seem to be the
most fitting way to manifest the
feeling against annexation,

1t is stated in the official organ

The question of paying dividends
to stockholders is likely to receive
consideration by our courts, as some
the stockholders OF the Kohala
Sugar Co. have brought an action
to compel the payment by the treas
urer Of that company of consider
able sum held by him in dividends.
1t seems that the treasurer has de-
cided to create a reserve fund, while
the majority Of the directors of the
company have declared dividend.
The treasurer has the backing Of a
majority of the shares. The ques-
tions involved have not been. raised
in these islands and will be of great
Importance to minority holders. To
the layman it seems unfair that a
few men, because they hold the
majority Of the shares of company
can dictate to the many, who hap
pen to hold minority OF shares,
when they shall be allowed to
handle the money their shares have
earned; such dictation must lead to
more or less friction. The counsel

in that he is in control of pews.
