1t is amusing to note the amount

ing our friends OF the A. U. p. get
up for the division OF their SIG
voters, 1t is almost on par with
their addressing their notices for
the primaries to MIR, Esq,
(sic) in order to be sure that they
give the voter at least one correct
handle to his name. But, then,
they wish the newspapers to give
the impression abroad that a nation
aleection:of mighty import is under
way.
Reliable Information from the
United States and Europe proves
conclusively that the cause of annex
alton is weakening day by day. The
conservative element is increasing
in strength as the bubbles of politi-
cal fraud and scheming on the part
Of tho Hawaiian Oligarchy are
pricked; and as the offensive odor
of misrepresentation permeates all
the former friends Of annexation are
becoming very angry at the deceit

not talked with Mckinley on political
