BUNCoERs ABROAD BEWARE

1t is the trick of the Bryanized De-
mocracy this fall to make false
charges against Republican methods,
raise a big dust, hire Republican mall
contents to organize Republican bolts
and then coax individual Republicans
to desert their party on the represent
tation that party ties needn't count
for anything in an off year" BY this
trick, If it shall work, the Bryanites
will get foothold for a hopeful fight
in national campaigns, and make just
so much more trouble for Mckinley,
the Republican congress and the cause
of sound cney.
You now see through this trick. Are
you going to let 1t work?

ANNExAToNlsTs WORRIED.
Their Enemies VIII Try To Influence
United states senators.

Honolulu, via Victoria, B. C., Sept. 0.
The anneNationists are very much
worried over the difficulty of an al
legged attempt on the part Of the anti
anneNatiouists 10 influence Senator's
Morgan and Quay, who are expected to
arrive here soon on tour of inyestiga-
tion. They say that Senator's White, OF
California, and Thurston, OF Nebraska,
who will lead the fight against anneXa-
ton i'm congress this winter, will also
visit Hawaii, and attend the mass meet
ing OF natives which. il is alleged by
the annexationists, has been called for
the purpose of convincing the senator's
that the natives bitterly oppose anneNa-
ton. IL is stated that Senators White
and Thurston will superintend the
drafting of monster petition TO con
gress, I'm which the Hawaiians will as
sert that the government was torn from
them through the action Of American
Minister Stevens.
II is also alleged that the mass meet
ing will be conducted entirely by
Hawaiians and will be made as dra-
matte as possible. The idea is TO work
upon the sympathies OF Senator MOT
gan and TO persuade him, II possible,
that the natives have been deprived of
lands and power by a handful of rich
and powerful whites, backed by n
treacherous American minister.
II is believed that the eX-queen may
arrive on the same steamer as the sena-
tors and that she will address the peo-
pie at the mass meetings. The second
card OF the anti-anneXationists will bc
