HAwAIIANs DO NOT AGREE

Envoy Damon Delighted with Nc
Kinley's Annexation Message
Major Iaukea Fears Destruction
to Hawaiian Nationality.
The Hawaiian Envoy, s. NJ. Da-
mon, and his military attsche, Major
Iaukea, are still in the city. Mr.
Damon said yesterday that he was
in London when he heard the news
that President Mckinley had sent
the annexation message to Congress.
81 was delighted to hear Of it," he
said, because annexation has long
been desired by us. l cannot speak
for the Hawaiian people, as l have
been absent from Honolulu for
several months, but l am confident
that the islands rejoieed over the
news"
Mr.. Damon added that he did not
think the Senate would ratify the
treaty at this session. The English,
he said, did not seem to take much
interest in the matter.
Major iaukes, who is native Ha,
waiian, spoke from different point
Of view. He said that the natives
do not wish annexation.
"They do not distrust the United
States" he said, "but they are a
sturdy, Independent. distinctive and
peculiar people. They are fond of
their country and their national Gus.
toms. Their only fear is that they
may lose all that goes TO make a
separate people, aud that they may
be merged into another race or a
composite OF races. They were fond
OF the old monarchy that endured
so long in its patriarchal state, and
they dread the inevitable changes
that will follow annexation. | think
they would have been willing for the
change If it had come gradually and
through their own volition.
However, the natives are now
only minority in Hawaii. OF no..
600 population, only 10000 are ma
tives, and OF this latter number 5000
are what are known as half-castes.
The taxpayers in Hawaii are not Ha-
waiians. The natives have lost con-
troll Of their own country; but they
dread the further grief of having
their nationality merged into that
of foreign race, and so disappear
from the earth"
The Hawaiians will leave for Ho-
nolulu in few days.

THE HIYEI ARRIVES.
A Bark-Rigged Cruiser of Ancient
Date But With Noble War
Record.

hBCOTu,
The Japanese cruiser Hiyei arriv-
ed 10 port about $3.50 this morning
and paid and received the usual
salutes, She is anchored on the
Eva side of the Naniwa.
The Hiyei pronounced He-a),
though in one of the big naval bat
ties and six Of the commandments of
the recent war, is not very formid-
able vessel of war, as it is eighteen
years old, and is now used as train
ing school for cadets and seamen.
The Hiyei has complement OF
1876 mon all told, of which eighteen
are cadets. The captain of the
cruiser is N. Uyemura, and the Com
mander is M. Ota. The other Of
ficers are as follows: Gunnery
Lieutenant, Y. Nishiyama; Torpedo
Lieutenant, Ell. Fukushima; Navi-
eating Lieutenant, K. Inouchi; First
Lieutenant, M. Tanska; Second
Lieutenant, X Okada; Third Lieut.
enaut, T. Okubo; Chief Engineer,
H. Kondo; Chief Surgeon, T. Maxi;
Chief Paymaster, Y. Koashi; Sub
Lieutenants, Y. Takahashi, N. Tani-
guohi, S. Nakagato, X. Nozakiend
NJ. Ochida; Assistants Engineers, X.
Onuma and T. Okazaki; Assistant
Surgeon, Y. Wada; Assistant Pay
master, L. Naksta.
The armament of the Hiyei con-
sists of sixteen guns, including two
Of IL centimeters, six of II cent?
meters, four of small caliber, and
four one-inch Nordenfeld machine
guns. The vessel is what is known
as a composite bark-rigged steam
cruiser Of 1884 tons. 1t has 1886
horse power, anu is supposed to
have q speed of twelve knots. The
Hiyei was built in England in 1879,
and was designed by Sir Edward
Reed
The most historic part of the
career of the Hiysi is its experience
in the famous battle of the Yalu
river. DIR. T Maxi, the surgeon OF
the cruiser, speaks very good Eng
lish, aud has told in San Francisco
the story Of the Hiyei's narrow es-
cape from being destroyed in that
battle on account of her slow speed
The Hiyei was the fifth vessel of the
line in the main squadron. When
the Chinese and the japanese fleets
were coming together the Hiyei fell
to the rear, as she could not keep
up with the other vessels. AS she
was about to be cut off by the
enemy's squadron Commander Saka-
raj, who was in charge of the cruiser
at that time, gave an exhibition OF
the daring that characterized the
Japanese during that war. He steer
ed the Hiyei with great boldness SC
as to bear down on the enemy's line
She passed between the two great
ironclads, Chen Yuen and King
Yuen, amid shower of shells, and
escaping from that perilous position
was able to rejoin the main squadron
She was, however, exposed to ter
rible FIRE, and very large shell
, struck the lower part of the mizzen'
mast and wrecked large part Of
the vessel near the mast, killing
twenty men, including both surgeon,
and the chief paymaster, who wal

Nix. EDlroR:-Will you please
allow me short space for ques-
ton or two in regard to your state
ment last week that each man with
a house in Jasper worth $500 must
pay 81. 80 town tax. At your figures
of 9S cents on each 500, it would
only be $40, and the additional
poll tax on men under 60 years OF
age of 81. And am informed the
town trustees only made levy this
year of 80 cents corporation tax,
and rs cents water works, -75 cents
instead Of 80, as stated by the CouK-
Ter. How is it? Every taxpayer in
Jasper is interested in knowing the
truth, and there should be no mis-
representation Of our worthy board
Of trustees, or lodging by any one.
TAXPAYER.
The COURIER cheerfully gives
room to Taxpayers" sensible
queries, and as the article referred
to did not 60 into particulars, pro-
badly it was not understood fully
by some citizens. Certainly the
COURIER has no desire to do An in
Justice to any Of the trustees, for il
believes they are to be commended
for putting in system OF water
works, necessitating an increase OF
taxation-although they failed to
give the people PURE water, and
thereby failed to make such a sys-
tenn as would pay its running ex'
penses from the start, and in few
years be a source of revenue tina,
would materially help to reduce
the SIC, 900 indebtedness.
But to the questions asked. The
town trustees made a levy Of cor
poration tax of so cents on each
800; water works tax of rs cents
on each 500; and poll tax of "a
cents for corporation, and rs cents
for water works, and tax on al
persons subject to street labor Of ;.
or two days work on the streets
The school trustees levied specia
school tax of IA cents, and so cents
poll, and tuition tax Of 8 cents, tc
partially make up the deficiency
caused by the State Legislature re
ducing the school tax from 16 cents,
as it ought to be to II cents. This
makes the total tax for the corpora
ton SO cents On each 500, and
with street tax, % poll, making the
amount on a $500 appraisement fo
q man under 60 years, $3.50, al

NOT SURPRISING.

One Of the most earnest support
ers Of the Republican national tick
ct in the campaign Of last year was
the New York Times. While it is
seldom that Democrats are able to
agree with the Times no one will
question. says the Evansville Cour-
Ter, the unusal ability and candor
with which it discusses all public
measures. It comments editorially
upon the recent message Of Presi-
dent Mckinley to Congress as
follows;
"If President McKinley's message and
Mr.. Dingley's tariff bill had been put be-
fore the people three days before the
election OF last November, they would
have put the sound-money cause and
the honor Of the nation in the gravest
peril.
"The Democratic votes which elected
Mr.. Mckinley were won and kept by
false pretenses. He was elected to de.
iend the financial stability OF the coun
try, and he has no defensive measures Il
propose. He was not elected to revise
the tariff, but his first act il oforce upor
the country tariff that 10 fragrant in it,

But the influence OF the moneyet
