What will be the reply of the

Does President Mckinley up
hold in Hawaii sentiment that is
condemned by the people of the
United States ?
Is this outpost OF the United
States in the Pacific to be the Off

Democratic cowardice ?
Is the sentiment that objects to

to be, in Hawaii's future official
life, upheld by the representatives
of the people in Washington who
have the sppointive power ?

dorse an official educational policy

NO DEMOCRATIC CowARDICE.

Ex. Minister Woodford said at a
public meeting in New York re-
Gently: "The flag is over Porto
Rico, and we of the RepubIican
party mean that it shall stay there,
The flag is over Cuba, and until
American enlightenment and
American freedom are firmly es-
tablished there, we mean that the
flag shall stay there too. The flag
is in Manila bay, and notwith-
standing Democratic cowardice
we shall keep the flag there"
This is an American sentiment
endorsed by the people of New
York and endorsed by the people
OF the United States at the last
election. 1t is a sentiment which
the newspaper organ of the local
officials Of Hawaii has repeatedly
cried down, and sought to discour,

A PRICE UPON HIS LTElE.
San Francisco, Cal, Feb. 1O-1'he
news of President Barrios's tragic death
did not greatly surprise the colony Of
Guatemalans i'll this city, which is COM
posed mostly of friends of the revolu-
tionary party. 1t was known here
months ago that big price had been
set upon Barrios's life. A syndicate of
GuatemalanS. some here and some mer-
chants in the disturbed country, com
bined and offered 100000 for the head
of the dictator.
The politicians went into the scheme
to regain their power, and the merchants
TO avoid the heavy taxation on their
property, The fact was notorious in
Guatemala, and Barrios himself knew OF
the offer There was much talk about
it, and it was fully expected that at
tempts would be made on the life Of the
dictator. About the first of the year
an officer of the Acapaulco, which plies
between this port and Central American
ports, said in an interview here:
we heard in Central American ports
that there was a standing offer of $780,
COO for the death of Barrios. He is
well guarded, however, and whoever
earns the blood money will have to run
numerous risks. There are hundreds
ready to take the chances, and as soon
as the coffee crops are in you will see
that a number Of attempts will be made
to take the life of the President of
Guatemala. The leaders of the late re-
belliOn are all within striking distance
of the Guatemala frontier, and when
their plans are matured they will make
their presence felt"

Extra Precautions Taken to Prevent
Attack ON American Legation.
Madrid, Feb. 10.-At meeting of the
Spanish Cabinet held to-day under the
presidency of the Queen Regent, the
Minister for Foreign Affairs. Senior
Gullon, read despatch from Senior Du
Puy De LONE, the Spanish Minister at
Washington, saying that the published
letter to Senior Canalejas was written
by him and that his position, consequent
ly had become untenable and he begged
the government to accept his resignation.
The Cabinet decided to accept the
resignation of Senior Du Puy De LONE
and the Ministers subsequently met and
decided to telegraph Ito Senor De LONE
accepting his resignation, and entrllst-
ing the first Secretary with the conduct
of current affairs of the legation.
The news of the De I4ome incident
was received too late yesterday evening
to obtain opinions. The government
press naturally ascribed its authorship to
the Cuban jingoes, the Washington
State Department announcement that
DE LOme had admitted the genuine
nes7s of the letter not being received until
early this morning. SenOr CanaIejas
WAS ont of town but his secretary said
he had never received any such letter
from De Lone.
For some time past the authorities here
have been taking extra precautions in
guarding the residence of the United
States Minister, General Stewart j..
Woodford which is on the outskirts of
the city. On Sunday the guard was ne
inforced by twenty four men, and the
HeraldO says that even this was not
considered sufficient. All day long ad-
ditiOnal precautions were adopted, evil
IDENTITY under the impression that public
order might be disturbed and a mum.
ber of mounted civil guards were posted
in the vicinity. Thereupon, the Heraldo
asks whence the necessity for these
precaution, since Madrid has offered
absolutely not a single symptom JUS
tifying such measures.
