NATIVES IND ANNEXATION
W A. KINNEY RGpLlES TO THE
EN-QUEEN'S PROTEST.


William \. Kinney, one of Hawaii's
special commissioners at Washington,
in ar interview with Washington
Star representative. said:
1t is charged in the eX-Queen's pro-
test that the annexation treaty is an
act of wrong toward the native and
part native people of Hawaii. With
out attempting now to reply to her
statement as whole, if there is any
thing that the annexation treaty is

against it, for annexation is the sole
hope of the native Hawaiians. | spe 'll
of the common people. Their future
is one of two ends. to pass under
Asatic or Anglo Saxon control. The
hope of these people as a nation was
dead twenty years ago, before this
Queen ever assembled the throne.
''If Asiatic dominion obtains the ma
tives must become coolies. for certain
~ they cannot expect to be better fl
than the rank and file of the dominant
state. If America takes Hawaii, the
natives become American citizens and
the American scale of wages and the
honorable position occupied by labor
in America will prevail in Hawaii, and
it. 1t is the choice between the status
of the American laborer and that of
an Asiatic coolie laborer.
"The white race, if Asiatics absorb
Hawaii, can get out to their own
country. The common native has no
such choice. He must stay and meet
his fate. Notwithstanding the indis-
putahle blessing annexation will be
to the common native, the ex-Queen,
playing upon the inbred devotion of
the natives to their chiefs, has, to-
gether with the official class among

'There is no power within Hawaii
to Withstand the Asiatic tide. 1t needs

The patriotic thing for the ex-Queer
to do is to secure to her people tbs
high and coveted status of the aver

tertaining any such ideas, however
she is evidently bidding for the sup
port of Japan to scramble back to hal
throne at fearful cost to the native
people. The fealty of the native Ha
waiians to their chiefs knows no limit
and often is exercised in way beyoni
the pale of reason or argument, ant

HAWAII AND JAPAN.
How an English Newspaper Views TIE
Controversy.

The st. James Gazette has publish
ed a sensational article on the situa-
ton in the Pacific ocean apropos of the
quarrel now existing between the IIa-
waiiar Republic and the Japanese En-
pire. The Gazette seems to have a
very poor opinion Of both the princi-
pals in the matter. 1t describes Ha-
wall as a corrupt little Republic run
by handful of American filibusters.
1t says that Japan has been so greatly
puffed up by its easy victory over
China that it is spelling for fight
with white power, and that America
may very unexpectedly oblige her, if
matters come to a crisis in Hawaii.
The Gazette is talking through It's
hat in great shape.

Suffers
from
Rheumatism

In olden times when a per-
son was attacked with Rheu-
matism, the general opinion
was that to look for a cure was
useless, that the disease must
run it's course.
Today it is quite different.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1897-07-08
EuCalOfOrn

The cause of so much Rheu-
matism in this country is due
to the impoverished condition
Of the blood. Exposure to
drafts when ever-heated and
carelessness about ones diet is
also likely to produce it.

The cleanest, brightest safest and really
in the long run, the cheapest and best light
for use in the family residence, is the mean
descent electric light. Safe; nothing could
be safer. A few days ago prominent gen
tleman of Honolulu came rushing down to
the office of the Electric Company and said:
solve me figures for wiring my house, and
want it done at once; no more lamps for me.
Last night lamp tipped over and it came
so near setting fire to the house and burning
my children and l take no more risks"
This is the sentiment of quite number in
the past few weeks, who have ordered their
houses fitted with the perfect light
Just think it over and make up your mind
that you want the best and safest light; send
for the Hawaiian Electric Company and tell
them what you want.

this line and have just received lot of the

SENSATIONAL LITIGATION.

The Receiver of the Capital National Bank
 at Lincoln, Neb., After Unearned Divi-
 dends.
 LINCOLN, Neb., June 22.--Nearly 100 moneyed men of Illinois, scattered over the state from Chicago to East St Louis, have been made defendants in what is likely to prove the most sensa- tional national bank litigation ever in- stituted in the west; the next chapter in the famous case in which Charles Mosher, president of the defuDct Capi- tai national bank of this city, figured to the extent of stealing something over a million dollars and serving five years in the penitentiary His bank closed in 1891. Ten years prior to that time the Capitol national had been paying immense dividends, amounting in the aggregate to half million dol lars. The law is clear that if the divi- dends were unearned they must be re- turned to reimburse the depositors. Mosher is now living in Chicago, it is said, in regal style. The suits will be pushed vigorously.

SITUATION IN HAVANA.
Alarm Among the Palace OmciaIs at In-
 surgent Successes.


 KEY WEST, Fla, June 22.--Advices from Havana say there is alarm among the palace officials, as reports have been received of three engagements between the advance guard and the Cubans near the Jaruco trocha, result ing in defeat of the Spanish. In one battle, 200 Spaniards attacked scat tering band and drove them half a mile, but they fell into hornets nest Of insurgents, as Col. Pedastro, with 400 Cubans came up and made short work of the government troops. The latter left S6 dead and wounded on the field. At two other points attacks were made by the Cubans and success attended them. Two of the forts of this trocha have been captured, and over a mile of track that runs along side the trocha has been broken up and trains have been compelled to stop. This was one of Gomez's first moves to cripple the road and thus put the government troops on short rations. The fighting in Havana province Is be- ing renewed more vigorously than ever.

Kansas City Judge Holds That Kansas Merchants Must Pay for Beer Shipped

A Kansas City Judge Holds That Kansas
 merchants Must Pay for Beer Shipped.
 KANSAS CITY, Mo-, June 2o.-Some time ago local brewing firm shipped two carloads of beer to Samuel Bro becker, at Leavenworth, Kan. There was dispute over the account and the Kansas man refused to pay, holding that the brewer had violated the pro- hibition laws of Kansas. The mat ter found its way into the Jack son county circuit court and in a decision Saturday Judge Gates hand ed down an opinion, allowing the brewer SITS. Judge Gates con tended that, although the brewer might have violated the Kansas laws, yet Bobrecker was equally guilty in that he had received the beer knowing the manufacturers violation of the law, and consequently the debt was a just one and should be paid.
